Sosuke Aizen smirked as Ichigo Kurosaki dashed towards him, raising one finger he gripped the blade and it shattered. Those in the know about how a Zanpakuto worked gasped.
Ichigo felt the spirit of Zangetsu depart his body, "hmmm...I meant to cut you in half. No matter, Ichigo Kurosaki your blade has been shattered in its Bankai it will never be returned to how it once was."
Ichigo fell to his knees as he stared at the remnants of his blade, zangetsu...
Aizen swung his blade slicing Ichigo across his chest causing the boy to fall to the ground. "Now Rukia, you have something I want."

All Ichigo felt was cold and all he saw was snow...
He did here giggling though, hehehe oh Ichigo, I spent so little time with you but...i find myself attached. That's why i left a piece of myself when Byakuya cut the power Rukia gave you away.
Ichigo looked up into the blue eyes of a pale girl with snow white hair. "Who are you?"
She smiled, "I am Sode no Shirayuki. I am Rukia's zanpakuto, or at least a small piece of it. When Rukia gave you her powers by thrusting me into you I took shelter deep underneath Zangetsu, I grew fond of you while you fought next to Rukia so when Byakuya ripped me from you to return you to her, I decided to leave a piece behind to watch over you, then I saw that fake shatter and the real fade, I took a piece from him...not enough for it to overcome us. Tell me Ichigo, do you want another Zanpakuto?"
Ichigo looked into her eyes and held up a hand. "Let's do this."

Aizen pierced Rukias chest and removed a small glowing gem, "ah, the hogioku so beautiful. I wasnt expecting it to be so small. You had to drag all these humans into this didnt you Rukia? It wouldve been so much easier if you had just died. What is this pressure I'm feeling."
Everyone watched with wide eyes as Ichigo was encased in a bright light and the lower level shinigami and some of Ichigos friends all either lost conciousness or fell to a single knee. When the light cleared Ichigo's outfit had changed, it was similar to what he wore in his shikai but this one had blue flames licking at the edges of his sleeves and legs and he had white snowflakes. Rukia gasped at a very faint image hovering behind Ichigo, she was a girl around Byakuya's age, her long silvery hair flowed down her back ending just above her butt, she had snow white eyes and her complexion was so pale she was practically white. "Sode no Shirayuki?" She just shook her head and vanished.
"Hmm?!" Yamamoto actually opened his eyes. For in Ichigo's hands were two zanpakuto, in his left a blade as long as his forarm, pure white hilt and all, except for the guard, which had black reminiscent of his old bankai. In his left the exact opposite, a pure black blade with the guard solid white, the exact same length. "Ah, I never thought I'd see the day when a third dual wielder of a zanpakuto." Ukitake and Shunsui gaped.
"Ichigo Kurosaki, you just dont know when to give up." Aizen said as he turned to the boy.
Ichigo dashed forward and took a swipe but was blocked by a bright yellow glow. "What the hell. Get out here and fight coward!" Ichigo screamed.
"Why should I confront you? Just because your blade changed doesnt change the outcome. I could shatter that blade of yours again with a single finger or two now I suppose."
Two more beams of light came down and encased Gin and Kaname, lifting then up. Yamamoto said it was now impossible to get them as this was a skill Gillians used to rescue one of there own.
Ichigo sheathed his blades across eachother on his back and everyone watched as Aizen removed his glasses and slicked back his hair. Then the sky closed and it was over. Ichigo collapsed as the pain from his wounds became to much.

For the next week Ichigo was learning to wield dual wield Zanpakuto from captain Ukitake, and Shunshi. Now he was sitting with the blades attempting to find the new name for his Zanpakuto.
He opened his eyes and found himself standing in the snowstorm from before, I see your back Ichigo. How can we help you?
Ichigo turned and his eyes widened when he saw the same white haired girl from before, only this time her hair wasn't in a braid and she had s familiar mask on her head, the hollow mask he had worn when he first re attained Zangetsu. She also wore a pure white to her stood a teenage girl with the same colored hair, but it was in a Bob and her eyes were yellow with black scellara and she too had the mask he had from back then. She was significantly shorter than her sister, Her Kimono was pure black however.
"I've come to learn your names now...I want to get back up to the level of Bankai."
The taller girl let a giggle out and the shorter one just raised her kimono rob up to hide her smile. oh, it would be entertaining to reach Bankai. Very well, our name is Ten no kuroi kōri no joō
"heavenly black ice queen...sounds fitting."
both girls smiled, call out our name Ichigo.
Ichigo opened his eyes in the real world and he stood up and crossed the blades, "Ten no kuroi kōri no joō!" A snow storm erupted and shunshi grinned slightly. When the snowstorm lifted both blades had widened and one began to darken, both blades now resembled cutlass blades in the human world. One blade was really light grey, close to white while the other was shorter and was closer to black grey.
"Oh? Your new zanpakuto must be very cooperative if you found her name that fast. Heavenly black ice queen huh? I like it." Shunshi said.
Ukitake nodded, "incredible. It took me years to learn the name of my blade."
Ichigo nodded, "yes...she was a piece of Rukia's zanpakuto...apparently Sode No Shirayuki took a liking to me when she was sealed inside me and when she went back to Rukia she left a piece of herself behind...when Zangetsu shattered she took his remaining spirit and fused herself with the remnants of Zangetsu. So I have both Shirayuki's affection and Zangetsu's respect."
Ukitake put a hand on his chin, "I see. That means that those two started off with a high respect for you already. That means you had that advantage over us."
Shunshi drank some sake, "I'm interested in seeing your bankai. It wont be long if your so easily able to reach this level already."
Ichigo nodded, "we are going back home today. Before we trained today I found Rukia and she said she would stay here. When I get back I'll work on mastering the special abilities of these two. Then I will go to Urahara and see if he can set the same way I originally got my bankai."

Ukitake pulled out a badge with a scroll and smiled, "here Ichigo, take this before you go. It's a substitute soul reaper badge, it will help you transform back into a soul reaper while in the human world."
Ichigo grabbed the badge, "thanks Ukitake. I'll see you later." He turned and followed Uryu, Chad and Orihime out of the soul society. "See you around Rukia."

After Running away from the cleaner Ichigo and his friends burst into Karakura town...and swiftly began falling as they were high in the air.
"I got you, welcome back everyone." Urahara said. Only to receive an elbow to the face. "Ouch. I wasnt expecting an elbow to the face Ichigo. I take it you learned about me."
Ichigo just nodded. Flying through the air Urahahara noticed something, "oh. That's a different Zanpakuto Ichigo. Did you already lose Zangetsu?"
Ichigo huffed, "Aizen broke it...now I have Ten no kuroi kōri no joō. I've been training under Ukitake and Shunshi to get used to dual wielding and re attaining my shikai. I may need your help to re attain Bankai, I'd you have another one of those dolls."
Urahara nodded, "of course. When your ready to do the test just come over to the shop."
Ichigo nodded and jumped off the cloth and looked at the place where his mother died with some sadness. Then he flashed stepped home and re entered his body and passed out.
let me know what you think...
