Hueco Mundo Will Fall
By: Chris Harrington
Chapter one: Rescue
It's been two years after the winter war and Ichigo is now a junior in High school walking to class alongside Rukia and the others when he heard a familiar voice.
"Ichigo!" yelled Shinji as he jumped down to where Ichigo was standing.
"Shinji what's up?" Ichigo said sarcastically until he noticed Shinji was holding his zanpakuto.
"We have to go now Ichigo! We found some Soul Reapers in Hueco Mundo during a scout mission and we need help getting them here." Shinji said exhausted.
Ichigo got out Kon from his backpack and took the pill, "Where do we go?"
"We need to get to Urahara's quick and save these ones, Orihime you come too all of them are wounded." Shinji said
"Alright!" she said as they began to run.
"What about us?" Yelled Rukia as they ran.
"Stay here in case hollows show up I'll be back in no time!" Ichigo yelled back
As they ran Ichigo began to get a little suspicious at this thought of why the Vizards were involved, "Shinji tell me the truth, they're not Soul Reapers anymore are they?"
"Your good Ichigo yes they became Vizards hundreds of years ago and they need help what difference does it make whether they are Soul Reapers or Vizards. They need us and that's all that matters right?" Shinji replied as they approached the Urahara Shop.
"Urahara!" Ichigo yelled
"I know it's already open and ready for you to go through." Kisuke said as he directed them to his underground training area and they went through as Shinji and Ichigo helped Orihime go through.
In Hueco Mundo Hiyori and the others were holding off hollows one after another.
"When the hell is Shinji gonna get back here with Ichigo!" Hiyori yelled at the other vizards.
"How are we supposed to know?" yelled Kensei as he and the others began to fight off hollows from almost every direction.
"It shouldn't be long from now Hiyori just keep fighting." Said Rose very calmly.
"Let me out of here I can fight!" a man yelled from Hachigen's healing barrier.
"You're still too weak Akiba Makkura stay still and let me heal you." Said Hachigen as he used Kido to keep the man there.
"Let him fight!" yelled child Nel as she was on the brink of tears.
"He needs healed!" yelled Love as the man broke free from his healing prison and jumped into action.
"Go get'em Akiba!" Nel yelled as he began to fight off hollows at a very fast rate using only Zanjutsu and Flash Step.
"Hachigen was it, just put up a barrier or two around us to keep the hollows out!" Akiba yelled as he used Byakurai to defeat a few hollows in front of him.
Hachigen became confused but Hiyori gave him a dirty look and he did as he was ordered placing many barriers around the group of individuals who finished off the few hollows inside the barrier.
"Akiba now what are we going to do?!" yelled Hiyori as he ignored her and quickly began to heal others that the Vizards were trying to rescue.
"Now how long can you last Hachigen?" asked Akiba.
"Not long, there are hundreds of hollows attacking the same point." He said sweating and shaking from the pressure on his barriers.
"Then that gives us few choices to deal with," Akiba looked at the ones that laid on the ground and felt some of his wounds beginning to affect him too, "When I need you all to duck, do it!" he ordered as they grabbed their zanpakuto to the sound of the first broken barrier.
"Do you guys think you'll be alright?" Akiba asked the unconscious men as some responded and three of them just laid there limp not even having so much as a pulse to their name.
A tear came to Akiba's eye when five of them began to breathe again. The sound was so soothing to Akiba like a beautiful serenade of life to his ears riddled with the sound of death and decay. The second barrier cracking ruined the loveliness of the moment. Akiba and the other vizards looked to the direction where the crack was coming from and watched as every crack lead to a shard of the barrier until it broke away and hundreds of hollows poured through the broken barrier ready to reclaim their escaped prisoners. They inched closer and closer mere feet from their prey when a loud voice echoed through the horde of hollows.
"Getsuga Tensho!" Ichigo yelled as many hollows were either destroyed or simply blown away by the initial blast all around the ground they laid flinching and howling in pain.
"Hello Hueco Mundo." Ichigo said as he jumped in the middle of the vizards and took a look at Akiba.
"So it was worth the wait to see you Ichigo." Akiba said as he got up from his comrades who lay on the ground in pain.
"Who are you?" Ichigo asked as Orihime jumped into action and began to heal the others.
"I'm Akiba Makkura nice to meet you," he said with a bow as a hollow jumped up behind Ichigo who turned around fast enough to see the hollows face get slashed by Akiba's zanpakuto, "What's our exit strategy Ichigo?" he asked as they went back to back.
"Get you through the Garganta but first we have to get rid of these hollows." Ichigo said with confidence.
"Leave that to me Ichigo when I say duck, duck." Akiba said as he took his sheath from his Shihokusho and slammed it onto his zanpakuto, "Weave your threads…Tate Shokkou!"
As he said that his sheath turned into eight blades that rested on the back side of his zanpakuto. Each blade was surrounded by green spiritual energy.
"DUCK!" he yelled as they did so.
He took his sword and moved it in a circle as the blades jumped from his zanpakuto and swirled around him still connected to the blade by a string of spiritual energy the size of the blade.
"Zetsumei Ito!" he yelled as all eight blades made a blast similar to Ichigo's Getsuga Tensho but in every direction leaving nothing but the blood of the few hollows standing in their way. (Zetsumei Ito means Death String)
Ichigo could only look in disbelief at what he had just witnessed this man in a single swing of his sword took out hundreds of hollows as his new comrades the vizards picked up the living ones being healed by Orihime.
"Ichigo will you do me the honor of picking up the three dead ones and helping me take them to the world of the living?" he asked as he put his zanpakuto away and Ichigo helped him carry one of them and he dragged the other two until he felt the weight leave his arms as Nel and her brothers picked them up and took them through the Garganta.
From the gloomy sands of Hueco Mundo came a voice that chilled Akiba to the bone as he was the last one to go through the Garganta, "Have fun in the world of the living my prodigy." It said as Akiba hurried through the Garganta as fast as his flash step could carry him.
On the other side Orihime was working on the wounded and Akiba was to be one of them as he laid on the ground awaiting treatment. Orihime took a long look at his face and body it was covered in scars and scratches and he looked as though he hadn't eaten for a long time but as her spell took effect all of the wounds on his body old and new faded away to reveal a mid-aged man with slightly long brown hair and a small beard that was simply a line that followed his jaw.
"I know there's a lot of scars miss, Orihime was it, do what you can I can live with a few scars."
"Actually I'm almost finished and there aren't any more scars at all Mr. …?" she asked as he began to laugh.
"I'm Akiba Makkura the ex-General to the Royal family." He said with such pride in his voice as Orihime and others around her looked at him with shock not at his former rank but at the orb that was placed at his chest and rooted out the orb was a green and black color and it seemed to enjoy the healing spell of Orihime.
