Ichigo Kurosaki was just one of your average fifteen year old high school student. With average friends, average grades, and nothing out of the ordinary. Well, at least that's what he wants you to think. When actually Ichigo is a substitute soul reaper and has great amount of spiritual pressure. He works along with Rukia Kuchiki who is also a soul reaper. Ichigo's life has changed tremendously ever since he met Rukia. But it was for the better because Ichigo loves to help his hometown as much as he can.
"AGH!!!" howled the hollow.
"Damn it! Another one? What's up with these guys?" Ichigo said as he swung his Zanpakuto at the hollow. The hollow was destroyed and then five more appeared. "There's just no end of these guys!" Ichigo started to think that this situation was looking pretty hopeless. 'At this rate this fight will never end,' he thought to himself.
"Ichigo behind you!" Rukia shouted at him.
Ichigo turned around to see that a huge hollow was rushing right at him. "Gah! Damn it!" Ichigo swung his Zanpakuto and shouted "Getsuga Tenshou!" and the hollow was defeated. Then more hollows appeared.
"Howl Zabimaru!" a voice shouted. A familiar sword-like whip appeared and struck at the hollows.
Ichigo looked behind him to find Renji Abarai standing behind him. "Gee, Ichigo you're slacking if you can't even beat low level hollows like these." Renji commented with a smirk.
"Shut your face Renji! I can handle these guys on my own," Ichigo snapped whipping his Zanpakuto in front of him getting ready to attack.
"And what? Let you have all the fun? Not a chance!" Renji shot back. He swung his Zanpakuto out towards the hollows.
Soon over a hundred of hollows appeared. "There's just too many of them!" Rukia claimed. Renji, Ichigo, and Rukia were all surrounded by hollows.
"We should call for backup!" Renji shouted towards Rukia.
"There isn't much time we must defeat them now!" Ichigo told them. "Getsuga Tenshou!" the attack only took down two hollows. "Damn!" Ichigo gasped.
"Reign over the frosted heavens….Hyorinmaru!" A frosted dragon swooped down taking out a dozen hollows. Captain Hitsugaya and Matsumoto appeared in front of Ichigo.
"Toshiro? Matsumoto? What are you doing here?" Ichigo asked them.
"That's Captain Hitsugaya! And the soul society ordered us to come because there has been a dangerous amount of hollows appearing frequently and our job is to figure out why." Hitsugaya explained to him. "Let's go Rangiku!"
"Yes captain!" she replied and they took off towards the hollows and began to fight.
"Ichigo look out!" Renji shouted.
Ichigo looked up to see a hollow coming straight at him. A flash of light that looked like the shape of an arrow flew and hit the hollow in the head and was destroyed. "You really are hopeless Ichigo." Uryu pointed out.
"Shut up Uryu I have things under control."
"Well from the looks of it you really don't, and you call yourself a soul reaper." Uryu adjusted his glasses and pulled back his bow and joined in the fight.
Things looked pretty good on their side. Then hollows numbers were decreasing tremendously.
"What's going on?" Toshiro asked. The hollows were screaming in agony and started to explode one by one.
"What the--" Ichigo started.
"What just happened?" Renji asked.
"I'm going to report this to the soul society," Toshiro claimed. He flipped open his phone. "Captain Hitsugaya reporting in."
As Toshiro gave his report to the soul society Ichigo sheathed his Zanpakuto. 'I wonder if this has anything to do with those two hollow looking guys,' Ichigo thought.
He remember that day where he first meet Ulqiorra and the other esparda. That's where he found out they were connected to Aizen. Ever since that day, more strange things started to happen. 'and if it does why did those hollows explode? It just doesn't make any sense.'
"I understand sir," Toshiro closed his phone and put it away.
"What are we going to do now captain?" Matsumoto asked.
"We are ordered to stay here in the land of the living to gather more clues into the strange behavior of the hollows we just encountered." Captain Hitsugaya told her.
"Well in that case….. I'll stay at Orhime's place for the time being! Catch you later!" And Matsumoto took off down the street.
"Hey get back here I'm not finished talking!" Toshiro shouted but she was already to far away to hear him. "Damn it Rangiku! This is suppose to be a mission not a get together." His temper started to rise as he started to walk down the same direction Matsumoto did.
"Hey Toshiro!" Ichigo shouted.
"It's Captain Hitsugaya! Ichigo, how many times do I have to tell you?" Toshiro snapped.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever…So do you have any idea why the hollows exploded?" Ichigo asked him.
"Not a clue, now if you'll excuse me," and Toshiro ran off to find Matsumoto.
"Touchy, is he always that grumpy?" Ichigo asked.
"You were being rude, Ichigo." Renji pointed out.
"Was not! How was I being rude? All I did was call him Toshiro and he got all defensive!"
"Oh, and that makes it okay? He told you to call him captain Hitsugaya and you still called him Toshiro anyways!" Renji snapped back. "Besides in the soul society its rude to call the captain by their first name."
"I don't give a damn, I don't live in the soul society so I don't have to follow their rules." Ichigo snapped back.
"Like Hell!! You're a substitute soul reaper so therefore you're representing the soul society!"
"Enough already! Both of you!" Rukia snapped. "Let just stop the pointless bickering your getting nowhere with it. Lets just call it a night and think of what to do next starting tomorrow."

"Well, it looks like our plan worked, Ulqiorra." a strange voice said. "They were occupied and we got what we came for."
Ulquiorra stood still and didn't say a word. He was holding something mystical in his hand. With no expression on his face. "Lets bring this to Aizen before we are spotted." They both then vanished.
