Hey guys! So, I thought I would do my first Bleach Fanfiction! Now, this is following the Manga (albeit, a fair time skip after Yhwach's defeat). And it does break some of the law, so sue me if you don't like it! Anyway, I hope you enjoy!

I will be saying the Zanpaktou names in translation, as my phone is not very good at writing Japanese...the ones I know without the Japanese letters (all the canon ones) will be written normally, but my custom zanpaktou will be in English...I will put them in Bold so you know!

The Gotei 13. An army designed to protect the balance between living humans and dead souls, by sending those who did good in life to the Soul Society, and those who were evil to Hell. Each squad was headed by the captain. And the captain's headed by the captain-commander. After thousands and thousands of years, only two have ever held that role; Shigekuni Yamamoto Genryusai, and Shunsui Kyoraku, the current captain-commander. With the 13 squads by his side, the balance of souls looks to be level for the first time since the Quincy Invasion 100 years ago.

"Man, I am so bored..."

Ikkaku walked down the Halls of the Fallen; a memorial for those who fell in the battle of the Quincy. He saw so many of his friends die; Izuru, Yumichika, Toshiro, Rangiku...Kenpachi. The Halls of the Fallen were a public place where anybody could attend, and Ikkaku found himself there because of his sheer boredom; who knew being the captain of Squad 11 was such a pain? He just wanted to be back to combat against the Arrancar, or god forbid the Quincy. It had been 100 years since that day, but it felt like only yesterday the Quincy invaded.

All well ended well; Ikkaku watched as Ichigo ascended the throne of the Soul King. He was the only powerful person who could have such a role. The first person to be a Shinigami, a Hollow, a Quincy, and a Fullbringer. Ikkaku was jealous of the power Ichigo had attained, but it drove him to become stronger, and he eventually surpassed his former captain.

"Heyyy, cue ball!"

Yachiru came from out of nowhere and jumped onto the back of Ikkaku's white captain jacket. She had a huge smile on her face, as she tugged the corner of her vice-captain uniform; she retained the spot after Kenpachi died. It seemed they were the strongest now that Yumichika and Kenpachi died. Although, for some reason Yachiru always made Ikkaku a little more entertained.

"What did I tell you about calling me that, candyfloss brains?" Ikkaku retorted as Yachiru blew a raspberry in her face. That resulted in a chase around the sacred halls until...

"Wrap Around, Wave of Carnage!"

Suddenly, a long whip wrapped itself around both Ikkaku and Yachiru, binding them both together, not leaving any room to breath. And then, came out a stunning women with crystal white hair, wearing a white captain's jacket and a very stern looking face. At the end of her whip, she held a jewelled handle, glittering gold, silver, and red. It was truly a magnificent sight.

Her name was Kaguya Oitsu; Captain of Squad 5, the Healing Squad, and a dedicated student to the arts of war too. "Captain-Commander Kyoraku has requested a meeting with the captains." Her voice was strict, like she was telling them off. "Next time, think about where you are before you play a game of tig."

"Shut up, Ice Queen! Meanie!" Yachiru continued with the pathetic insults until Kaguya let the whip go, and walked away in a calm mood. This left both Yachiru and Ikkaku confused.


In The Meeting

Ikkaku stood in between two captains, as the meeting started. Captain-Commander Kyoraku and Vice-Captain of Squad 1 Nanao Ise stood at the top of the corridor, and Nanao began the register.

"Captains of the Gotei 13, please listen carefully as I read out your names." Her voice was almost as strict as Kaguya's, maybe a little more relaxed...maybe. "Captain of Squad 2, Marechiyo Omeada?"

A large man with a little bit of a beard stood in front. You could tell he was both a food veteran and a battle veteran. "Here!"

"Captain of Squad 3, Jinsei Hyonagi?"

A man who looked like he was a gym buff, with a little tuft of red hair stood forward. "Here!"

"Captain of Squad 4, Senyo Sangaki?"

This time, an elderly man with a black beard stood forward. His skin was a dark colour, and he had a menacing aura to him. "I am here."

"Captain of Squad 5, Kaguya Oitsu?"

Kaguya stepped forward. "Yes, Vice-Captain Ise."

"Captain of Squad 6, Renji Abarai?"

A man with a red beard and long, red hair, held up by a black headband to contrast with his white jacket, stood forward. "Present."

Nanao read the next name out. "Captain of Squad 7, Sajin Konomura?"

A large dog stepped forward. Was it weird how the dog looked shaggy and had a beard? It made him look old. "Here."

"Captain of Squad 8, Aoi Hinata?"

A women with very short black hair stood forward. She was smoking a thin, black cigarette and was holding a bottle of her favourite drink; sake. "Here, miss Nano."

"It is Nanao..." Nanao pushed up her glasses. "Next time you smoke and bring booze in here, you shall be sanctioned and court marshalled by the Central 46." Nanao read the next name in a heavier tone. "Captain of Squad 9, Reiko Kunata?"

A young looking boy stood forward. The captain's jacket was clearly a size or two, too big and the sleeves went over his hands. He had shoulder length white hair, and greeted the room with a boyish smile. "Heereee!"

"Captain of Squad 10, Mitsuhiro Ito?"

A heavily tattooed, bald headed man (although even THAT area was tattooed...) stood forward; Ikkaku noted he was not wearing a black haori underneath, and only trousers. "Present."

"Captain of Squad 11, Kenpachi Madarame?"

Yes. Ikkaku was now a Kenpachi. It was either him or Yachiru, who decided she was bored and slept through the contest, so Ikkaku was the sole winner. "Here, Vice-Captain!"

Nanao pushed her glasses up once again. "Captain of Squad 12, Mayuri Kurotsuchi?"

A man wearing a white jacket and a weird looking blue and white mask stepped forward. "Why should we do this register? It is clear that there is everybody here!"

And finally Nanao closed the scroll. "Captain of Squad 13, Rukia Kuchiki?"

Rukia stepped forward. She brought upon a cold aura with her. Her dark hair was naturally wet, but still maintained it's structure. "Accountable!"

"Excellent." Kyoraku broke his silence. His rainbow coloured kimono lighting up the room. His black hair was fading, but he still maintained his youth like charm. "Hey, Aoi? Can I have some of that-" Kyoraku looked at Nanao's icy glare before refraining himself. "*cough* so, there is a matter of business we must deal with."

"What is it, yo?" Reiko smiled as he finished of that sentence. His boyish look refreshed most of the room. Maybe not Kaguya, Mayuri, or Mitsuhiro, but perhaps Rukia, Ikkaku and the others.

"Shush, child! Let the Captain-Commander talk!" Mayuri was being stuck-up, as usual...

"Can it, asswipe!" Reiko went into brat mode and assumed an aggressive stance before Kyoraku magically appereaerd in between them.

"As I was saying. I had a report from Tessai and former Captain Urahara this morning. A large number of Ryoka have shown vast amounts of reishi. More then an average person."

Nanao interrupted. "One showed levels of King Kurosaki's original spiritual pressure, when his soul reaper powers were awoken."

Rukia gasped. "Ichigo's? This takes the up most importance! Please, send a team out there!"

"Now, now Kuchiki!" Kyoraku walked past her with a smile. "I am afraid even if he wanted to, the moment Ichigo leaves the royal realm, the moment another invasion like the Quincy's could happen." Kyoraku thought for a minute. "However, if these are Ryoka, then we need to send a small team down there."

Rukia raised her hand. "Me and my vice-captain Hotaru Manasada will go!"

Renji grabbed her arm. "No, Rukia. Your powers are too cold! Send Hotaru, and I will back him up with Grenadine."

Reiko butted in. "I will go too! They will need a strong backup just in case they are Arrancar!"

"Well," Kyoraku smiled. "We have our team!


Next Chapter:

Reiko and two lieutenants go to Earth to take on the "Ryoka". Meanwhile, in the Soul Society, Kaguya faces off against Ikkaku after he steps out of line again. And finally, we will see an "old" character return!

THIS CHAPTERS ZANPAKTOU!

Kaguya - Wave of Carnage; a black whip, with a jewelled handle. Wave of Carnage has the power to extend infinitely, and sap reiatsu out of opponents. Her bankei, Wave of Absolute Despair, can mold all the stolen reiatsu into a single strike. She then has to build up her reiatsu from scratch. It is possible to use her own reiatsu, but Kaguya likes to torture and humiliate her opponents in battle!
