Well, tonight's Saturday, anime night, and me and my sister's 3rd Annual Summer All-Nighter! Which works out well, seeing as the new episode of Bleach tonight is mainly about Kurotsuchi, and I probably won't be sleeping after that anyways. Okay, back on topic.
Yeah, I couldn't think of a title, so "The Switch Fic" will have to do for now. DISCLAIMER: Don't own Bleach. So there. Nyehh. XP
The Switch Fic
chapter 1
It was a beautiful... no, wait, uhh...
It was a relaxing...
It was a...
Ah, forget it!
It was undoubtedly the most boring day in Karakura Town either Ichigo or any of his friends could remember, and that was all there freakin' was to it.
Ichigo lay in the grass and stared up at the sky blankly. "What do you wanna do, Uryu?"
"I dunno," replied the Quincy. "What do you wanna do, Orihime?"
"I dunno. What do you wanna do, Chad?"
"Hm," Chad shrugged.
A breeze quietly blew through the grass.
"...No, you're supposed to say, 'I dunno. What do you wanna do, Ichigo?'" Orihime answered for him, mimicking his voice.
Chad just shrugged again.
And another minute passed by in silence.
Hey, I warned you. They were bored as heck. Whaddya want ME to do about it?... Oh, wait. I'm the author. I can do something about it! Okay, so then...
Ichigo's phone rang.
"I got it!" the other three shouted. Yeah. Even Chad. He was so bored, I don't think he even knew who he was anymore. Anyway, back on topic.
Ichigo sat up and gave them a look as he took out his phone. "Man, you guys are desperate for something to happen, aren't you?" They nodded. Ichigo sighed, then answered his cell phone. "Yeah?... What? Where are you?... Whaddya mean?... Well no, but-- I mean-- no, I-- Fine! I'll be there as soon as I can! And I'm bringin' the guys with me!" With that, he flipped his phone shut and looked at the others. "That was Rukia. She's in Soul Society and she says something's wrong."
Orihime gasped. "What is it?"
"I don't know, she wouldn't say. But I told her I'd be there and that you guys were all coming. So are you up for it?"
"Ichigo!" Orihime went on, sounding offended. "I can't believe you would say that without even asking us first! That's so rude of you!"
"...So are you up for it?" Ichigo repeated.
"Yeah, I just wanted to say that." She blushed sheepishly and scratched the back of her head.
He sweatdropped, then turned to Chad and Uryu. "What about you guys? You comin'?"
"Sure," replied Uryu. "Anything to keep me from dying of boredom."
"I'm in," added Chad.
Orihime stood up triumphantly. "Alright! Then it's settled!"
"Off to Soul Society!" Ichigo copied her current attitude, causing everyone else to give him a look. After a moment, he realized what had just happened and his eyes widened. "Wow, I am bored."
XXXXXXXXXXXXXX
It wasn't long before the gang arrived at their destination, and it also didn't take that long for them to find Rukia. Apparently it was a slow day in both worlds. Go figure.
"What took you so long?" Rukia complained when they met up with her.
Ichigo was shocked. "What are you talking about?! We got here as fast as we could!"
"Well not fast enough! This is getting even creepier than it was when I called!"
Uryu stared strangely. "Creepy?" he asked.
"Creepier?" said Chad.
"So what's going on, Rukia?" Orihime inquired. "Oh, no, wait, I know, lemme guess! Everyone's been abducted by aliens! Big ones! That look like... like... artichokes! And if they don't turn Soul Society over to the Artichoke Aliens, they'll turn everyone into potato chips! Am I right? Huh? Huh?"
If you listened reeeeeeeally closely just now, you could hear the wind blow straight through Orihime's head.
". . . . . Not even close," Rukia finally answered. She turned and saw two figures coming up behind them.
"Well then what is it?" Ichigo asked imaptiently.
"This." Rukia turned to face the person walking by. "Hello, Lieutenant Kurotsuchi."
"Beat it!" Nemu shouted. Everyone jumped back a little from the shock. Then Nemu turned around and yelled to the person walking slowly behind her. "Kurotsuchi! Move it, you piece of crap!"
"Yes, Lieutenant," said an unusually quiet voice. As the figure came into view, everyone was somewhere between amazed and horrified to see the freak-faced captain of Squad 12 himself. Kurotsuchi then stopped and greeted Rukia before continuing on his way.
The area fell silent after they left. ..Was that a tumbleweed that just blew by?...
Ichigo rose an eyebrow. "...That was..."
"Creepy?" Rukia finished.
"...Pretty much."
-------------------
Short. Yeah.
Did you know Johnny Yong Bosch was just on Bobobo? Yeah, he was that Bo-Jiggler guy. Man, my sis and I got such a kick out of that. Oh, and Kurotsuchi's voice actor is the same guy that plays Yoruichi in cat form. But anyway... I'm not really sure what to make of this fic. The idea just sort of popped up and I wanted to do something with it. If all goes well, I think I'm gonna have a lot of fun with this one!
Reviews appreciated! (hint hint) ;)
