Haha, I feel like I'm writing the script for another Bleach movie! Haha, there will be an OC in this, sorry, kinda like the movies. Anyway, please enjoy and please, please, please review! There really is a plot to this so please read!
Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach or any of the characters and themes for it, I do however own the OC's and ideas that I put into this fic. All rights to Bleach belong to the wonderdful Tite Kubo or Kubo Tite, however you wish to write or pronounce his name.
Characters:
Kurosaki Ichigo: A fifteen-year-old substitute shinigami with a kind of hero complex I guess you could say.
Kuchiki Rukia: A shinigami from the 13th squad of Soul Society. Adopted into the noble Kuchiki family by the new head, Kuchiki Byakuya, whom she calls 'Nii-sama'. Loves heights, rabbit related itmes, especially Chappy.
Jun Sui: The main OC of this story, his name means 'purity'. He can hear the echo of people's thoughts and true intentions. He's a strange one; his background and intentions are a mystery. His zanpakuto is called Tsubasa, meaning 'wings'. The command to release it is 'Tobu' meaning 'fly'.
Inoue Orihime: A girl in Ichigo's class, she's extremely spacey and has a strange sense of taste. Her powers stem from the barrettes she wears. She has a major crush on Ichigo whom she calls 'Kurosaki-kun'.
Ishida Uryu: An arrogant four-eyed nerd that ticked off Ichigo, they have an unspoken truce. He has proclaimed himself 'The Last Quincy*', a race thought to be extinct thanks to the shinigami. He hates shinigami for that very reason. He's in Ichigo's class.
Sado Yasutora: A big bulk of a man, he doesn't look fifteen. He has a Mexican background and has been friends with Ichigo since they started High School together.
Kon: A Mod Soul* that was bought by Rukia for Ichigo. When he's not in Ichigo's body he inhabits a stuffed lion plushy. He's always messing with Ichigo and is a pervert, going after any and every woman in site. Don't expect much from him.
Asano Keigo: A comedian and a class clown, one of Ichigo's human friends; don't expect much from him in this story.
Ms. Ochi: Ichigo's English teacher, a bit of a dunce, lacking almost all of the qualities of a teacher, one wonders how she became one; don't expect much from her.

"Tobu, Tsubasa!" A white light filled the clearing, giving the leaves an eerie glow as they mixed with glowing white feathers and reishi*…
Bleach
Atarashii Shinigami
A New Shinigami
"Oi, Keigo, say something funny." Ichigo demanded. He was in a foul mood because of the lack of sleep that was forced on him when Rukia called him out last night. He had just been able to doze off when she had dragged him out of bed telling him to go exterminate a hollow. He had turned shinigami and left the house with her, heading for a clearing in the forest around the children's playground. When the got to the clearing, however, there was no hollow, there wasn't a trace of anything going amiss in the area at all. However, Ichigo could have sworn that he felt some residue of some new reiatsu*. The two had bickered and fought all night until Rukia locked herself in his closet, yelling that she wasn't going to school that day.
"WHAAAT?!" Keigo complained. "I can't just turn it on! You, sir, are asking for the impossible." The brunette crossed his arms and turned away from Ichigo in a lame attempt to pretend to be mad. Ichigo glared at him.
"Do. It. Now." Ichigo growled. Keigo shivered under his cold glared and instantly launched into a stream of lame jokes and vain attempts at comedy. Ichigo paid no attention, the bad jokes did nothing to help his mood, it just succeeded in escalating the ticking time bomb that was his temper.
"Ohayo*, gakidomo*!" Ms. Ochi called, a little too cheerily, as she entered the classroom.
"Ohayo, sensei!" the class droned.
"Cheer up! I have some great news!" Ms. Ochi smiled as she said this. Some of the kids in the class stopped their conversations to listen to her. "We're getting another transfer student today!" She cheered.
"What? Again? Sensei, this is, like, the third time in as many months!" One of the guys whined. This remark was soon followed by many other protests.
"Whatever! You can come in now!" Ms. Ochi called to someone outside of the room. The door was slowly slid open as a frail person walked in.
The person was pretty tall, but frail. It was hard to tell whether the person was male of female because their long, flowing white/blue hair covered their eyes. He wore the winter uniform, which was odd because it was September, buttoned all the way up. Even the small size seemed a little big on the frail body; the gray sleeves completely hid their hands.
"Class, this is Jun Sui. He has just moved to Karakura because of family issues." Ms. Ochi indicated the boy.
"What? It's a guy?!" Keigo exclaimed.
"Yes." Ms. Ochi stated, as-a-matter-of-factly.
Lunch was torture for Ichigo, all Keigo would talk about was Jun Sui and how he was going to date her, apparently he either didn't hear Ms. Ochi, or refused to believe her. The girls on the other side of the roof were even worse. They were going on about the new kid too, fussing over his looks and who got to start his fanclub. Although Ichigo didn't outright hate the new guy, he felt a weird vibe from him, something he had felt before. He briefly thought back to the strange reiatsu he had felt at the clearing but quickly dismissed the thought.
"Ah! Look, it's Jun-chan!" Keigo had taken to calling the new kid by that name. Ichigo looked in time to see the boy in question. He looked exactly as his name depicted, pure. His pale, white skin and flowing hair gave him everything short of being angelic. The graceful way he carried himself just added to this.
As Ichigo walked home he felt something behind him. He turned around and saw Jun.
"Jun?" Ichigo asked.
"I want to see Kuchiki Rukia."
To be continued…
Trouble on the horizon? Who is this boy anyway, and what does he want with Rukia? Find out only in Bleach: Atarashii Shinigami, A New Shinigami.

Here are some translation notes!
*Quincy: a race of humans that had powers to exterminate hollows. Unlike a shinigami, who's powers are to purify hollows, forgiving them of their sins so they could pass on to the Soul Society, a Quincy's powers utterly destroy hollows. Their weapon of choice is normally a bow and arrow made up entirely of reishi. A Quincy gets their power by absorbing it from around them and then converting the reishi they have collected into a solid form eg. Arrows. This differs from a shinigami's power, which comes from within.
*Reishi: spirit particles. Everything and anything that is in the spiritual world is made up of this.
*Reiatsu: Spiritual pressure. Kind of like an aura or something.
*Ohayo: good morning.
*gakidomo: gaki means kid or squirt or brat, and domo is used when addressing a group. So she is calling the class a bunch of brats.
