Chapter One
The fighting was intense, with casualties on both sides. The Shinigami and Vizards were fighting hand in hand against the Arrancar. Mini battles were taking place all over the fake Karakura town. Yet the most important battle, the one that would decide the fate of the entire world, was the one against the man who wanted to be god. The man called Aizen Sousuke.
Kurosaki Ichigo was watching from the sidelines in the air, awaiting his one chance to strike Aizen down while the Captains and Vizards worked together to distract Aizen for Ichigo to do his job. The orange-headed teen stared in frustration as the battle progressed, for Aizen appeared invincible and managed to fend off all his attackers even though the Shinigami and Vizards all fought relentlessly.
Aizen's trusted fukutaicho and right-hand man, Ichimaru Gin, watched from the top of a nearby building and smiled his creepy smile as he watched the futile efforts of the chibi taicho, Hitsugaya Toushiro, in his bankai trying to kill Aizen.
Aizen, had provoked him by mentioning Hitsugaya's childhood friend Hinamori Momo, had tricked Hitsugaya into bankai. Now the chibi taichou's time was limited, as his bankai was not fully formed and there was a limit to how long he could stay in bankai.
'Easy pickings,' thought Gin as the sunlight glinted off his sliver hair. Soon, Aizen would be sitting on the throne of god and Gin would be beside him. 'That way, if Aizen wins I can save you, Rangiku.' He frowned at the thought of his childhood friend whom he had saved from death. "Please be safe, Rangiku..."
The amount of opponents that Aizen faced was decreasing. With Komamura out of the picture and the fact that his opponents were already injured before he fought them, everything played to Aizen's advantage. 'I will be god!' Aizen smiled triumphantly to himself. Hitsugaya sent an ice dragon at him, which Aizen dodged by shunpo-ing to the ground. His opponents immediately followed and Aizen sent a kido blast.
Distracted momentarily, Aizen's guard lowered for a second and it allowed someone to slash his arm. It was a minor injury, yet Aizen was pissed. He turned around to see Hitsugaya wielding Hyorinmaru.
"I told you that I would get you, you bastard!" spat Hitsugaya. Upon seeing Aizen hurt, his other opponents were encouraged and began to attack Aizen with renewed vigor. Both Love and Shinji managed to get in a hit, and Aizen frowned. 'This is bad. At this rate, more reinforcements may come and even I can't fight that many by myself. I'll have to end this now.'
Aizen increased his spiritual pressure and drove his zanpakuto, Kyoka Suigetsu, into the ground. This caused the ground to rumble and shake violently. Everyone fell and was suck to the ground.
"What did you do, Aizen!" screamed Shinji as he tried to no avail to get up. It was as if someone had super-glued him to the ground and was he imagining it? His energy was draining away.
"Fools," said Aizen. "Subdued by such a simple attack. And you hoped to defeat me?" He sneered. "Forget about getting up. Even if you manage to, you won't have any energy left. In fact, I must thank you for donating your energy to me to aid me in my conquest of Soul Society."
"Bastard!!!" Shouted Ichigo as he dashed through the air towards Aizen from behind. "Getsuga tenshou!!"
At the command, a blast of dense reiatsu left Zangetsu, Ichigo's zanpakuto, and flew towards Aizen. However, Aizen deflected it with Kyoka Suigetsu. Ichigo swung Zangetsu and Aizen blocked with Kyoka Suigetsu.
"Ryoka boy. You're still around? I thought you were seriously injured, from the way you kept hiding behind your friends and using them as a shield. You'll never defeat me, boy. Give up and join me. I could use someone like you when I'm ruling the whole world."
"Never!" shouted Ichigo and he stepped away. "Hiyaa!!" Ichigo jumped above Aizen and swung Zangetsu downwards. "It's over my dead body if I joined you Aizen! You tried to have Rukia killed."
"You're still a thousand years too early to fight me boy! You've left yourself unguarded." said Aizen as Kyoka Suigetsu met Zangetsu in mid air. Aizen kicked Ichigo in the stomach and Ichigo flew through the air and crashed through several buildings nearby.
"Now, what shall we do?" Aizen asked those lying on the ground. They were too weak to reply. "I know. I shall kill you all. Be honored that I am killing you personally." Aizen remarked. "Hmm… Who shall I kill first?" Aizen asked himself as his eyes traveled over his helpless victims. His eyes stopped on the juu-bantai taicho, Hitsugaya Toushiro. "Ah, I've found him."
"Damn you!" Hitsugaya said as he valiantly tried to stand. However, he was too badly injured and with his energy being drained, all Aizen had to do was to flick a finger at Hitsugaya's forehead for him to fall. Aizen then swaggered in front of Hitsugaya.
"Farewell, Hitsugaya-kun," Aizen smiled as he pointed Kyoka Suigetsu at Hitsugaya. "You provided a nice warm-up for me."
Hitsugaya said nothing but stared at the tip of Aizen's blade.
'Shit' thought Hitsugaya. 'There's no way out now…'
