Ichigo Kurosaki, substitute shinigami was currently running down one of the endless hallways that was in las noches, the central home to all the hollows, arrancar, and espada. The same place where their kidnapped friend, Orihime, was. She had been abducted by one of the espada and Ichigo and several of his friends immediately planned to head to las noches, and rescue her.

Now he was currently running down the hall, he turned around to see the young espada, nel and got the head full before he could try and catch her.

"I wanted to see yous Ichigo, I wanted to see yoooouuuusssss." exclaimed the upset Nel as she layed on the down shinigami's chest.

Ichigo could only smile and patted Nel's little head eliciting a smile on her face before standing up. "Where are your brothers?" asked Ichigo.

Nel looked behind her and instantly became worried as neither of her brothers were with her.

Ichigo could sense the presence of someone else besides him and Nel from one of the stands above them.

"Come out. Whoever up there, I told you to come out!" exclaimed a now irritated Ichigo.

One of the stands ended up collapsing from an unknown source.

"Shit, like I'll let you run away!" exclaimed Ichigo to the unknown figure.

"Hmph, who's running" questioned the figure who appeared in front of Ichigo. "away?" who ended up falling into the floor from the height of the fall. Causing a sweat drop to form on Ichigo's head.

The figure then began some sort of singing that was horrible as the dust cleared to reveal the now revealed figure.

He resembled a stereotypical portrayal of the devil. He had black hair and blue eyes. His hair resembled a pair of "horns" and he had a van-dyke beard and mustache. His hollow mask remains could be consisted of a small plate on his forehead that had horns mirroring his hair. He had fringes on the forearm portion of his sleeves, a poofy red sash tied at his waist, shoulder pads, and openings down the front which revealed his black undershirt.

Ichigo and Nel just looked at him with deadpanned looks on their faces.

"Wait just one second!" exclaimed the arrancar.

"What's with that reaction?" questioned the goofy acting arrancar.

"Nothing it's just..." "What's with that reaction oooon!?" "Shut up, you don't have to say it over and over." replied Ichigo to the annoying arrancar.

"You just beheld Dordoni-sama's grand entrance scene." exclaimed the now identified Dordoni.

"Grand? But didn't you just miss your step?"

"What's with you pretending to be calm like that?"

"I'm not pretending, I am calm."

"And you, the tiny one beside him! At least make eye contact with me!" exclaimed Dordoni.

"Hmph...fine, I guess that's what's known as a difference in our senses of style. It is of no concern to you who will soon be defeated." replied Dordoni with a grin.

"Now, prepare yourself, shinigami! For I, arrancar no. 103! the great dordoni-sama! Shall have the pleasure of crushing you here!" exclaimed a confident Dordoni.

"103? That's a pretty big number isn't it?" Asked a curious Ichigo.

"You ain't kiddin." replied Nel.

Ichigo and Nel just seemed to talk to each other while ignoring Dordoni.

Ichigo just looked back at him as he gripped his zanpaktou. "Well you seem incredibly weak." replied Ichigo with a sweat drop.

"What? Go ahead and and test whether I'm weak or not! But don't come crying to me later, nino."

Before Ichigo could move, a huge gash appearing on his left shoulder appeared with blood spraying out. Dordoni just stood behind Ichigo as though he took a few steps.

Ichigo reached behind him and gripped zangetsu. "Getsuga tenshou!" exclaimed Ichigo sending a crescent move shaped wave of spirit energy flying at Dordoni.

Dordoni merely raised his right leg high before the attack hit his leg, which made the attack shatter like glass.

"My, my, didn't your maman ever teach you not to judge people by their appearances?" questioned Dordoni looking at Ichigo with a confident smirk.

"What did you say?" asked a shocked Ichigo.

"Did you not hear me? Privaron espada. It means "fallen espada", so, in other words, those of us who have three-digit numbers, including me were all espada at some point in the past nino." replied Dordoni who disappeared only to reappear in front of Ichigo bringing his foot down on the substitute shinigami, who immediately blocked it with zangetsu.

"Ho ho, what's the matter?" asked Dordoni who leaped into the air and rushed his foot through the support beams on the ceiling, and sent Ichigo through the wall.

Ichigo looked below and saw how high he was up, which gave Dordoni the opportunity to appear above him. "your feet aren't something you should be going out of your way to confirm with your eyes." replied Dordoni who sent Ichigo crashing into the a pillar.

"Your reactions are slow and your defense is brittle. You can't even adapt to changes in your footing. This pathetic! It's almost like fighting a toddler!" replied Dordoni ready to finish him. He was surprised to see Ichigo still there.

"Bankai, do it, nino. I won't mince words as you are now, you will not be able to beat me, no matter what you do." replied Dordoni with his hands on his hips.

"Don't wanna." replied Ichigo with a weak voice.

"Why not?" questioned a curious Dordoni.

"Because, I have to face all the espadas to rescue my friend. So I can't use my bankai on someone who's not an espada. But I can use something good enough." replied Ichigo with a smirk as zangetsu suddenly was covered in blue spirit energy which dispersed soon after.

It changed into a blade that had a silver hilt with gray-wrappings and a short length chain at its base. It also curved inwards at the backside of the tip similar to a trench knife.

Ichigo dashed Dordoni intending to strike him with his zanpaktou, but was stopped by Dordoni raising his leg up.

"I see, I understand your feelings well, nino. So please allow me to say something." replied Dordoni who grabbed ichigo's blade with his right hand as he began to unsheathe his zanpaktou with his left hand. "Wind, giralda." replied Dordoni as he suddenly began to become enveloped in a vacuum of wind that pushed Ichigo back.

"Damn it. He can release even though he hasn't unsheathed his sword?" questioned a surprised Ichigo who had a feeling this wouldn't go well.

"What are you doing? Prepare yourself" spoke dordoni's voice as the wind dispersed revealing himself in his resurreccion. He now had two large horns on his shoulders and armor that started at his feet, was wrapped around his calves, and jutted out at his waist with two more spikes. His mask also extended framing his face. "Let's go, giralda." replied Dordoni as two serpent like figures made out of two cyclones were right next to him and seemed to be coming from a vent from his feet as he brought his right leg up near his chest.

He brought his leg toward Ichigo and the two bird like figures crashed Ichigo into the floor.

Instead, Ichigo quickly climbed out of the hole in time as another one of those cyclones would have crushed him. He was barely holding up with the barrage of cyclones from Dordoni who wasn't letting up.

"Now, do bankai nino. Your going to die, you know." replied Dordoni continuing his assault.

Ichigo just kept blocking the hits, but was held up in the air by one of the cyclones. "Getsuga tenshou." yelled Ichigo as his attack hit the head of the cyclone, giving him time to appear behind Dordoni and have his blade stopped by dordoni's forearm.

Ichigo's initial getsuga tenshou merely sent him back as Dordoni didn't move an inch from the close blast.

"This is the punishment naughty children get." replied Dordoni as he formed a pentagon with his index and pinky fingers and a small red orb of spirit energy was forming. "Cero." the red orb was released into a large blast that headed straight for our orange headed hero, but what shocked the two fighters is that Nel appeared in front of Ichigo and seemed to be stopping the blast.

They both were even gobsmacked as they actually saw she was eating the cero! The whole cero!

"Sh-she swallowed it?" asked a shocked Dordoni.

Nel had her hands in front of her mouth like she was going to puke, but instead a larger form of dordoni's cero was instead shot right back at him.

"Dun do bad stuff to Ichigo." replied Nel who's mouth had some smoke coming from it.

The dust quickly cleared, only for Nel's eyes to widen in shock as she was sent back from a burst of wind.

"Nel!" screamed a worried Ichigo.

"Hmm...I don't know who that baby is, but she's really something, being able to return my released state cero. However, I wonder if it's a parlor trick." stated Dordoni with a smirk as he whipped his leg in nel's direction.

The bird shaped cyclone may have almost succeeded in destroying nel, hadn't it been sliced in half showing Ichigo holding Nel to his chest. But something was different about him.

Instead of his usual bankai look, he was wearing white armor covering his chest, arms, shoulders, and feet while a stripe runs across his face. Underneath was a complete black bodysuit. He was holding his badge that had grown a medium-seized black machete-like blade with a silver edge and a round hilt with a simple white cloth-wrapping and flat base. The blade itself was the guard, with a new black-cross marking on it. They're was also a white sheath on ichigo's back.

A huge gash appeared on dordoni's left shoulder causing blood to spray out, along with his left shoulder pad being cut off.

"If you want to see it that badly, then today's not your day." replied Ichigo who swung his machete-like blade.

"I see, then I will crush you for failing to comply with my request." replied Dordoni.

Nel just coughed a few times while in ichigo's grip.

"I'm sorry Nel. It's because of my stubbornness that you felt pain. But I won't make that mistake again." replied Ichigo looking down at Nel.

Dordoni sent another cyclone at Ichigo, who simply slashed it apart with a small getsuga tenshou.

"I see. That's some impressive reitsu. I told you, that I want to see your full strength." replied Dordoni as Ichigo stopped another cyclone.

"And I'll use" replied Dordoni appearing behind Ichigo aiming to strike Nel. "Any means necessary to so, nino." completed Dordoni who was about to strike Nel.

But Ichigo moved Nel a little away, and the result was Dordoni ending up piercing ichigo's ribcage.

Ichigo grunted in pain as the hand was pulled out of his ribcage and he just fell on his knees, while Nel herself had her eyes widen in shock at what happened to Ichigo. She failed to notice that Ichigo pulling her out of the way actually caused dordoni's strike to cause a large crack in her skull cap, before it widen furthered, in which Nel began to feel strange.

Ichigo and Dordoni stopped their fight and saw Nel being engulfed in a bright pink light, before it dispersed itself and what stood there shocked both fighters.

Instead of child Nel, there was a girl around ichigo's friend, tatsuki's height. She had the same green hair as nel, except it branched into two ponytails held together by two ribbons on each. Her outfit consisted of nel's former hood, which was now torn in a skirt and top, which also did nothing to stop her cleavage from being seen. Which made Ichigo blush slightly even while in this situation.

The now teenage Nel just looked at to two of them and saw how much blood Ichigo was losing, which for some reason infuriated her. She directed her attention to Dordoni who was still shocked. "You bastard!" screeched Nel who instantly used sonido and appeared right in front of him.

Before Dordoni could do anything, Nel instantly unsheathed her blade and Dordoni instantly got an x-shaped slash mark all across his body causing lots of his blood to spray out. It shocked both Dordoni and Ichigo at the speed she used.

Dordoni fell on his back, while Nel turned her attention to Ichigo, who was returned to reality from Nel bonking him on the head.

"Ouch, what the hell was that.." started Ichigo only to see Nel was trying her hardest not to cry.

"Baka, don't do that ever again to Nel." replied Nel who ended up pulling Ichigo into a hug.

As soon as they realized what nel was doing, they pulled away trying to hide their blushes.

Nel just looked at Ichigo and strangely, licked the side of his face, resulting in another blush for both of them.

"Nel's saliva can heal." replied Nel trying to hide her blush. Ichigo looked down, and sure enough, his wound was beginning to close up.

Ichigo just nodded and saw Nel stand up and spit a loogy onto dordoni's unconscious face, which brought him around immediately.

After a small arguing from both of the arrancars, Dordoni just looked at the ceiling. "It seems I have been trounced. It seems refreshing to me, even though I wanted to face your real power, Ichigo Kurosaki." replied Dordoni.

"I figured if I could defeat you while you were at your strongest, then I could one of Aizen-dono's espada again, but it seems I was wrong." replied Dordoni.

Ichigo just nodded as he and Nel got up and headed to the exit, but not before giving Dordoni another slice on his chest as he was trying to fight them again.

While they left, Dordoni just faced a crowd of skull faced arrancars, whose leader explained that they had orders to execute the intruders. He even mentioned Dordoni couldn't fight due to his sword being broken and his body in that state. But that didn't stop Dordoni form rushing head on, and meeting his end.
