A.N: I do not own Bleach, or any of the characters!
Hey everyone! This is just an idea I got after reading the chapter 420 the last day (it was fricking awesome!) So anyway this is a new story I came up with...I'm still think some parts over but this is sort of a prologue (or something like that) of what's to come. I hope you enjoy. So yea this is post-war.
Chapter 0 – Prologue
"Run! Hurry!"
Heavy rain poor continued to rain vigorously as three out of breath teenagers ran for their lives, eyes wide with fear as the masked monster behind them chased them into the park. Tatsuki Arisawa turned her head to look back at the two males who were starting to fall behind her. "Come on!" she screeched back at them.
Keigo Asano and Mizuiro Kojima quickened their pace, their breaths short and quick. With every breath a small puff of cold air escaped past their cold lips. Their muscles ached because of the consent running. As the three turned a corner Keigo lost his balance on the wet grass and tripped, falling over onto the hard ground causing him to accidentally bite his lip. Tatsuki swore under her breath as she and Mizuiro dragged him to his feet and behind a large tree as they attempted to catch their breath.
"D-do you think we lost it?" Keigo nervously asked as a trickle of blood run from his lip down his chin which he wiped away with the sleeve of his uniform.
"I-I don't know," Tatsuki replied. She poked her head around one side of the trunk of the tree and scanned the area for the hollow. "That thing wasn't like the rest of them," she said as she checked the other side to make sure it was clear, "there's no way we'll be able to hurt it."
Just as she spoke a blood-curdling howl erupted causing the three frightened teens to bloke their ears. The high pitched scream pierced their ears painfully and the powerful spiritual pressure that came along with the howl made their bones creak under the strain. The hollow was nearby and it was gaining on them.
"Shit."
"We gotta get away from it." Mizuiro said.
"Run!"
They made a run for it but their energy was running on empty. Running under the crushing force of the spiritual pressure; it was impossible for them to run at full speed. It wasn't long before they could hear the crunching sound of the hollow's giant footsteps behind them, the low deep snarl of the monster as it caught up with it's prey.
Then it caught up with them.
And it cornered them.
There was no escape.
Its nostrils flared as it sniffed the air and it let out a low taunting chuckle. Without a word or warning it brought a large grey hand down in attempt to crush them where they stood but the three were able to dodge it, just, but were sent flying in three different directions from the force of the hand hitting the ground. Tatsuki landed with a hard thud and she swore she could hear the bones in her right arm break.
Mizuiro was thrown backwards and into a trunk of a tree and he coughed up blood. Keigo unfortunately was thrown towards the hollow. He landed brutally on his back and his winced in pain. It took a while for him to register what had happened but when a huge shadow cascaded over him he looked up and his eyes bulged. The hollow towered over him; it white frog like mask came closer to him, nostrils flaring wildly. It's empty, hungry eyes locked onto him and it's wide mouth opened showing off it's flat but deadly teeth covered in saliva. Keigo tried to move but his fear and now broken leg prevented any movement. The hungry hollow lunged forward and he clamped his eyes shut.
And suddenly a howl of pain erupted from the hollow, and a new more powerful spiritual pressure was present.
Keigo slowly opened his eyes, afraid of what to see, and what he saw surprised him. His eyes widened in disbelief.
"I-Ichigo?"
o-o-o-o-o-o
One month ago the Winter War ended and Karakura town was saved. There were many casualties but in the end the Soul Society had won and it was all thanks to a certain Substitute Shinigami . The end of the war should have marked a time for celebration, the world was saved from Aizen.
But there was something terribly wrong.
The hero of the war, the one who saved them all, disappeared without a trace.
Ichigo Kurosaki was gone, and no one knew what happened to him.
To be continued...
Well that ends it, I hope you enjoyed it. I know it's short but like I said it's only like a preview :) I will be making the chapters between 1500-2500 words long depending on what's happening at the time. I will post chapter 1 hopefully sometime next week. Anyway please review and tell me what you think of it so far. If I get loads of reviews I update faster...and I'll give you a plate of cookies? *puppy dog eyes*
