* ~ Chapter One: Messy Love Hollow ~ *
Normal POV
"What?!" Rukia yelled in disbelief.
"Yeah, you heard." Ichigo tried to reply as innocently as possible, scratching the back of his "orange hedgehog", or so Rukia calls it.
"You're Third Taichou?!?!?!"
"Yeah, how many times do I have to tell you, midget? Yeah, Third Taichou. I'll be a higher rank than you now…but of course, I was higher than you in the first place." Ichigo smirked.
"Are you making fun of my height?!"
"Yeah, so what?" Ichigo couldn't help but smile at her reaction.
"Stupid strawberry…" Rukia muttered angrily to herself.
"What was that?" Ichigo asked suspiciously.
"Nothing." She turned her acting skills as high as possible, and faked a smile at Ichigo.
Ichigo seemed satisfied at the reply, and lay down on his bed.
Isshin POV
I was standing outside Ichigo's room door. I heard Ichigo and Rukia bickering, and heard everything of course, my proud son, Third Taichou! Of course, I knew that before he did. Urahara sure is a good spy. I chuckled. Who knew the door flew open, and Ichigo's foot came in contact with a rib…CRACK! I saw Rukia wince. Aaah…my proud third daughter cared about me! I smiled as I flew through the air and crashed into a wall. Masaki, you'd be happy too~~~
Rukia POV
I winced slightly when I heard a crack, but didn't care too much. When you lived long at the Kurosaki Residence, it was insanely normal.
I heard Ichigo sigh and close the door. I quickly picked up a book and pretended to read. I could feel his stare bore into me. I started to blush, though I tried to keep it down, I could see him smirk.
"What are you blushing about?"
"N-n-nothing." I stammered. I really didn't know why I would have this strange feeling whenever I was with him…I couldn't explain it…(A/N:Yes readers! It's the feeling of LOVE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
"It's something alright."
I was saved when Renji suddenly popped his head through the window, and hopped onto Ichigo's bed, making Ichigo's eye twitch slightly.
Well, duh, who wouldn't be angry if somebody hopped in suddenly and stampled new sheets with muddy sneakers? Well, seriously, why would I care?
Suddenly again, Matsumoto hopped onto the bed, stampling the sheets again. Ichigo's hand twitched.
And suddenly again, Ikkaku(Hope I spelled that right) blasted the wall open and entered with Toshiro and Yumichika.
"Ikkaku, this entrance isn't pretty at all." Yumichika said in his usual tone, flipping his short hair slightly.
Toshiro just looked bored.
Ichigo burst. "GET THE HELL OUT!!!!"
"No." Toshiro replied coolly. "Actually, we're here to tell you about a Hollow that is seemingly..."
"Hard to beat!~" Matsumoto yelled happily.
"We all couldn't beat it, because of certain circumstances." Renji looked like he was about to laugh.
"Because..." Ikkaku continued, smirking.
"A couple's power is needed to beat the Hollow."
"What?!" Ichigo and I yelled out simultaneosly.
Ichigo POV
COUPLE'S POWER?!?!? Say what? Couple's power?!
I just stared stupidly at the 5 "intruders", then after an uncomfortable silence, I was blushing as I started to talk. "A-and yeah," I said as nonchalantly as I could. "W-why would you guys come and find me and Rukia?" I knew of course, and knew this was plainly the truth. I took a quick glance at Rukia. She was blushing too.
"Well..." Yumichika said, "You guys better hurry up. And the reason is quite obvious. You and Rukia are falling for each other. No need to pretend. Don't worry about being laughed at, Love is a beautiful thing. And--it is indeed a mission for the new Kurosaki Third Taichou."
The other people snickered. Even Toshiro was wearing a devilish grin on his face. I wanted to punch something. But I was actually kind of happy inside that they thought of me and Rukia as a package deal. Whoah. Pretend I didn't say that...
Rukia & Ichigo POV
Well...
Who cares...
It is a mission after all...
And it's with Ichigo/Rukia.
*grins*
Normal POV
Renji led the way, the others following close behind. Ichigo and Rukia were still blushing slightly, refusing to look each other in the eyes. They all felt slightly embarrased, but on the inside, they were both so happy that they could be flying.
After a few quick Shunpo, they arrived at Kurakara Park. It was humoungous, it's mask was the shape of a up-side down heart, and it seemed to be spreading hearts to couples nearby, unaware of the danger beside them. Whenever the hearts landed on a couple, the would be stuck in a kissing position. The Hollow would laugh evilly, and eat the couple up. It was a horrific sight, and Ichigo and Rukia both winced at the scene.
Mastumoto seemed to see them wince, and said loudly, so everyone could hear, "Why are you two wincing, Ichigo and Rukia? Are you guys afraid of a puny little Hollow too?"
"N-n-n-no, o-of course not." Rukia stammered.
"Yeah, why should we be afraid?" Ichigo, slightly blushing, pulled out Zangetsu, and aimed Getsuga Tenchou straight at the Hollow.
The Hollow faded into thin air.
"Couple's power? Is this a joke?" Ichigo felt like he might laugh. Was this some sort of prank?
"Are you stupid, Kurosaki? Watch." Toshiro said impatiently.
The Hollow's pieces rose into the air, and they turned back into the original Hollow.
Ichigo wasn't happy at all to see that a Hollow could survive a straight-out attack from his Zanpakutou. He used Shunpo to stand right in front of the Heart Hollow, jumped up, and cut it's mask in half. Ichigo's attempt was useless. The Hollow formed again.
The Heart Hollow wasn't happy at all to be provoked two times by an orange-headed soul reaper, it shot a pink heart straight at Ichigo, and he was binded by the arms. He fell down onto the ground, skid a few feet, and Zangetsu fell from his hand, skidding away from him.
"Ichigo!" Rukia screamed, rushing to his side.
The other soul reapers just watched, seeming happy to see romance in action. They all knew the two would be okay.
"We told you, a couple's power is needed. Not one person's. If you keep attacking it with a single attack, it will never die!" Ikkaku shouted at the two.
The Hollow looked at Rukia and Ichigo with squinty eyes. "Oh...a Shimigami couple...DELICIOUS! But I should play with the girl a little, just to get a little reaction from the boy...oh, this will be wonderful!" The Hollow sent a red heart flying at Rukia, sending Rukia flying in the air, only to be slapped by one of the Hollow's tentacle.
"RUKIA!" Ichigo screamed desperately.
"Oh, shut up and watch, little boy." The Hollow laughed evilly, binding Ichigo's legs with a heart, and then turned again to play with Rukia some more, only to earn more screams from Ichigo.
"How sweet, but it's useless!" The Hollow mocked as Ichigo struggled with two of his binds. The Hollow sent a huge heart flying at Ichigo, and his binds tightened so much that he was screaming in pain.
This time it was Rukia's turn to yell.
"Ichigo, are you really Third Taichou? Doesn't seem like it!" Renji said.
Ichigo suddenly stopped struggling.
"Are you giving up? Smart boy!" The Hollow said, continuing to torture Rukia, slapping her with it's tentacles and slamming her down onto the ground every so often.
"Who on Earth ever said that I was giving up?" Ichigo asked in disbelief, face dark. He began to raise his Reiatsu, so high that the five people standing by had to kneel down a little, even Toshiro.
His Reiastu turned black and red, and was still going higher. He Bankai-ed without even saying anything, and sliced his binds open with
Tensa Zangetsu--the Zanpakutou that used to be a few feet away from him.
The five Shinigami stared in disbelief. Only the highest rank of Shinigami could Bankai without the Zanpakuto in his hand, and do so without saying a word.
With speed that the eyes couldn't see, Ichigo slashed all around the Hollow, you might think he was slashing air, but when he landed onto the ground with Rukia dangling from his arm, the Hollow's blood burst from little cuts all over it's body. Not enough to kill it, but enough to give it a LOT of pain. Rukia was staring at Ichigo with a bit of awe and with a bit of THAT. Her violet eyes were as big as big as dinner plates, but when Ichigo looked down at her, she blushed and looked away.
"Come on Rukia. Let's finish it together."
Rukia said nothing, but Ichigo knew she agreed. He put her on the ground gently, and Rukia drew out her Zanpakutou, "Some no mai, Tsukishiro."
"Getsuga Tenchou!"
Ice and Getsuga Tenchou combined into a fiery mass of power, freezing the Hollow. The Ice broke, and the Hollow was gone forever.
Just as the seven Shimigami was about to celebrate their success, they heard the clopping of sandals. Clop-clop-clop. They all turned around, to see Urahara, he was clapping appreciatively.
Renji was on the edge of laughter. "Well, you see Ichigo and Rukia, this Hollow is actually the creation of Urahara. He saw you guys falling for each other, and decided to help a bit..."
"Indeed, indeed." Urahara said, smiling. That smile vanished as he got a nosebleed, due to Ichigo's fist.
"Oh yes! I suddenly remembered, there might be after-effects when the Hollow vanished..." he didn't finish, and Ichigo and Rukia was already stuck in a kissing position, just like when the Hollow shot hearts out at the human couples.
Ichigo and Rukia's eyes widened, but, they did indeed, enjoy the kiss.
Urahara and the others all smiled.
Suddenly, Urahara said, "Oh yes, I remembered again! This after-effect will last a day or two!"
"NANI?!"
Okay, so this is the first chappie, hope you guys like it! R&R please! Arigatou!
