CHAPTER 1

Ichigos life had never been an easy one. He had seen things that should have never been seen by human eyes. He had done things impossible for human standards and he had fought in a war, greater than any human war would ever be. He had been in other dimensions had seen heaven and hell even thought he was still alive had removed his soul from his body severely times and was still connected to it. Had many souls inside him, which were still parts of him. Had duties that were not meant for any human and living being and had become a captain in soul society even thought his life in the human world had not ended. His body had also changed under the influence of his soul. His body became physical stronger and his senses had become sharper. The most visible change had been that he hadn't aged one bit and still looked like he was seventeen.

Even thought he had a part time job in soul society (heaven) he had still graduated from school and university. He had even been one of the best! He had, to the great surprise of his friend become a teacher. He still needed to choose which school he would like to teach in but that would also be soon decided. He had many requests from school and didn't really have a problem to find one. It was that one day that changed everything.

Ichigo woke up in the morning and did his normal routine. He was about to go out of the house when he saw an owl outside of his window. The first thought that came to his mind when the owl knocked at his window was: "What the hell?" It knocked again and this time Ichigo reacted. He opened the door and let the owl climb onto his arm. He had spotted the letter it was holding in its beak and slowly but carefully took it away from the owl. After he had taken it the owl spread its wings and flew away. Ichigo just stared blankly after it. After having finally come back to reality he looked at the letter and opened it.

Dear Mr. Ichigo Kurosaki,

I am happy to inform you that you were chosen to be the new DADA teacher of Hogwarts. We hope you will consider and accept our offer to teach at Hogwarts. If you decide to accept we hope that you will come to England, London and drive with the Hogwarts express at platform 9 ¾.

Yours sincerely Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore Headmaster of Hogwarts

Ichigo was shocked for the second time. What was DADA and why a school from England would ask for him to teach there. It was all written in English and with very little information. He didn't know what to do. The letter itself looked already suspicious and with so little information it looked even more suspicious. He was thrown out of his thoughts when his working cell phone rang. He looked at it and scowled. A damn meeting again that wouldn't bring them anywhere again. There had been many but he could find a way around them because he was still alive. This time he couldn't and he wanted to ask some of the captains what they thought of this letter. He opened a portal and let his soul butterfly that he got after he became a captain go through it before him. He didn't want to be chased again. When he arrived at the meeting there were already loud controversies going on. It was always about the same matter. If they should let the espadas and/or vasto lords join their ranks. Half was for it and another half against it. It was always the same and Ichigo really didn't want to go in. He sighed a second time and opened the door. They went quiet in under a second and looked at him. He looked at them and then asked what he was called for.

"We are holding a meeting like always and if you have time you are obligated to come" said Yamamoto with an emotional tone. "We have a tie and your decision will decide if they are allowed to enter soul society or not."

I give my voice for them. It will improve our relationship and will help us understand them better. It will also help us with our force. We will probably be able to enter hueco mundo without being attacked by a stronger hollow. I will say that we should risk it. We can't judge them all just by some we know off. That would mean that if one did something wrong, they would have all done something wrong. If we judge them like this we would need to judge ourselves also like this. If we go with such a principle than we would all be traitors because of Aizen."

Everyone just stared at him like they had just seen a miracle. He even heard Kyoraku whisper to Jushiro:

"They managed to make a diplomat out of him in mere years. It was like he read it out of a book!" Jushiro even nodded at that.

Ichigo was annoyed by the reaction. He had thought of that before but they all didn't really notice it or more like tried to. They just saw him as kid after all.

"I wish to have your opinion on something!" Ichigo said suddenly interrupting their thoughts. He wanted to get out of here as quick as possible.

"I have received a letter from a school that wants me to teach there."

"And what is so strange about it? I heard you graduated as one of the best. Of course the schools would send requests to you" said Unohana with her usual smile.

Ichigo smiled back but became serious again. "Yes it is normal but it is a letter that asked me to teach DADA. It has very little information to it and it comes from England."

Now everyone looked shocked at him. Becoming requests was normal but not from other continents if you weren't a genie.

"Can we see it?" asked Byakuya emotional as always. Ichigo had become good friends with Byakuya over the years. He himself couldn't believe it but it was true. After knowing Byakuya for years he had learned to read his emotions through his eyes. He was curious of the letter that was sure.

"Yes of course" Ichigo said and laid the letter before them. It looked normal at first, very short but still a normal request to teach at a school. They also noticed the request to teach DADA and that it was from a school in England. It also had very little information and they also thought of it as suspicious. They looked at Ichigo again.

"That is not all of it…" their stares told him to continue "It was not sent with the mail, it was an olw that brought the letter to me. Today before your call the owl knocked at my window and when I let it in it gave me this letter."

That was the last thing that the captains expected. Even Unohana looked surprised by that.

"I will go to England tomorrow and look what I can find out about this. I will report to you of course old man but I still wanted to hear your opinion like I said."

"It should be interesting. I want you to report to me about everything that happens. If it is dangerous, I want you to come back right away. If that was everything you are dismissed. Kurosaki-san please stay for a few more minutes." The other gave him an asking look but left anyway. Ichigo just shrugged. He didn't know what the old man wanted from him.

"What do you want old man? Is there something you want me to do before I leave?"

"Yes, after I heard what you said I was sure you would be the best for the job. I want you to be a diplomat of some sort. The vasto lords and expada will come to you with requests, troubles and question. Your division will be the one that takes care of the higher hollows and talk to them."

Ichigo had one thought: 'I dug my own grave', but said "All right old man, I will do so, but it will be harder to do so in London."

"I will tell the higher hollows where to find you and that you will hear them out. I will also send you the paperwork. We can't let someone else take care of it while you are away."

Ichigo scowled at that but nodded anyway. It was almost impossible to disobey the old man with little things like that. Ichigo, as a war hero had accomplished that the Central 46 was disbanded, but little things that wouldn't kill or hurt anyone expect for himself he couldn't say no to Yamamoto. He had an authority to him that Ichigo sometimes just couldn't overcome.

INFORMATION:

Ichigo was the most liked captain. He had improved the lives for the souls. He had let his division help and improve the lives of the souls outside of Seireitei and had visited most of Rukongai by now to overlook the work that he himself had ordered. The worst parts were the ones that he worked on the most. Through his power output he could even enlarge the barrier to the further parts of Rukongai and through that the hollow attacks had lessened. Ichigos power had still risen even after he had used Mugetsu and he hadn't lost his powers at all. He had to much power and so only half of it was completely used. He recovered it later on and soon he had become even more powerful than before the Mugetsu. He had connected himself to the barrier and so the barrier was sucking on his energy. It became bigger by day because the power output from Ichigo was getting stronger. He even needed to seal most of it, because he would crush his friends and family by only standing next to them. He had learned how to control it but it was still to much power for his ever changing human body to handle. Even his soul had problems with it.

Back to the STORY:

Ichgio had packed everything and had readied for his departure. He would make a Senkaimon directly before the headmaster's office when it functioned. He opened it and went through with his bag slung over his shoulder.

Dumbledores POV:

Dumbledore was more than just surprised when he suddenly saw a door appear right before his door office. He had opened them to let the wind go through them and suddenly there stood a door. He looked closer at it and it was magically that for sure. The door opened and a boy around seventeen came through it. He looked at Dumbledore and seemed to curse than he moved toward him.

Ichigos POV:

Ichigo cursed and walked to Dumbledore. He hadn't expected that the office doors where open. Most of the times the doors were closed, but he couldn't change it anymore.

"Are you…" Ichigo looked at the letter "…Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore-san?"

Ichigo spoke in perfect English. He had wanted to understand the souls when they were foreigner and so he had learned many different languages. It had been surprising for the others how easy Ichigo seemed to learn them but Ichigo himself knew that he was good at copying. He had listened to foreigners and CDs and later on learned the meaning. It wasn't so hard in his opinion.

"Yes I am, but may I ask of you who you are?"

"Yes I am Ichigo Kurosaki. You have asked me to teach here, but have given me very little information. I do not know what DADA is and I also find it quite strange that an English school would ask of me to teach here."

"Yes we search for a new teacher in DADA. The other teachers didn't hold out long and so we started to search for other teachers outside too. When we found you it was questionable if it would really function but when we read with what ease you learned and that you have a special gift we thought you would be able to do it."

"What do you mean by special gift?"

"This is a school for wizards and witches and we teach magic. We have heard rumors that you have a special gift and have tested it to. It was shown positive that you are a wizard and since you have graduated as a teacher we have come to ask you. Let me ask you something thought. How old are you, it is not easy to tell what age you have with your looks."

Ichigo didn't take it bad. He himself sometimes wondered if he was really his age. He was still curious thought. A school for wizards and witches wasn't what he had expected but what had he ever expected in his life.

"I am twenty-three years old, but tell me now what DADA is?"

"It is Defence Against the Dark Arts, but the students just call it DADA."

Ichigo thought about it for a few minutes. Dumbledore didn't seem to be lying and he had that look in his eyes. It would be something else, that for sure. He also wouldn't have to go to the most meetings. He was far away and could finally have some quiet form his friends and father. He would see how wizards and witches do magic, he didn't believe in most of the legends and he would learn a bit himself.

"Dumbledore-san I will accept. Please give me the list of what I need and how I will get it. Also write down every detail this time and please sent me books or give them to me now to learn how to teach the class. I also need to know when the semester starts and the normal information.

Dumbledore smiled at that and nodded. It would be an interesting year.

It was an idea that I had, hope you like it.
