LET'S PLAY A GAME. I'LL BE GOD YOU'L BE THE DEVIL AND WE'LL TRY TO KILL EACH OTHER FOR ALL ETERNITY. DOESN'T THAT SOUND LIKE FUN?
"I wonder what they're up to in the seireitei", Ichigo said to himself while throwing darts at a picture of Yhwach's face with the words 'Nazi Douche' written on his forehead. He hadn't heard from them in a while. Writing a quick note on his desk for Orihime telling her that he would be making a trip to Soul Society, would be back later, and a list of all the things he would do to her body when he got back.
"Now I can't visit the Gotei thirteen without an elaborate entrance", Ichigo grinned and went to one of the lower levels of his soul palace to get some things.
SEIREITEI-CAPTAINS MEETING
"This is bad, this is really bad", captain of squad of nine Renji Abarai said with a bit of panic. The rest of the captains in the meeting room were equally anxious, though some hid it well. The reason for their fears. A man named Muramasa appeared and somehow turned their own Zanpakuto spirits against them after fully manifesting them out in the open and used them to attack the seireitei.
"Get ahold of yourself Captain Abarai!" Soi Fon yelled. "We all lost our Zanpakutos".
"Just who is this Muramasa?" Ukitake asked aloud.
"More importantly, where did our spirits disappear to?" Hitsugaya said.
"I don't see how this could get any worse", Kirinji the former squad zero member, now reassigned to captain of squad four said. Just when he spoke that the doors burst open and in rode Ichigo on a motorcycle wearing a leather jacket and matching pants.
"WHAT THE FUCK IS UP!?" Ichigo laughed stopping the bike right in the middle of the captain and revving the engine a few times. Everyone groaned in frustration, it figures the mad soul king had to show up now of all times. Sure things in soul society were running much smoother now under his rule, but Ichigo was still bat shit crazy and liked to use it to mess with them whenever he was bored, happy, or all of the emotions in between.
"Of course", Byakuya said sarcastically while silently cursing his luck.
"Sooooo…I noticed a lot of buildings were destroyed around here, what's that all about?" Ichigo asked sticking a cherry flavored lollypop in his mouth. No one wanted to answer, Soi Fon tried to explain but Ichigo just kept revving the throttle loudly every time she spoke cutting her off.
"Could you please stop that Ichigo", Shinji asked getting irritated.
"Is that any way to address your king?" Ichigo asked with a glare while raising his reiatsu a bit. The captains swallowed nervously at the feeling until he started laughing and released the pressure. "I'm kidding! I don't care how you address me. Soi Fon is trying to skull fuck me with her eyes right now and I don't care because I'm picturing her without clothes", the stealth force commander turned bright red at the humiliation and tried to think of come back. "If it makes you feel any better, Yoruichi says that she pictures you naked all the time", Soi Fon fell to the floor having fainted from the shock.
"That's how we do it", Ichigo smirked snapping his fingers in a z pattern. "So Kyoraku, bring me up to speed", he said getting off the bike. Kyoraku smiled at the soul king's antics and went on to explain the situation that they found themselves.
"So this Muramasa prick appeared last night, turned the spirits of your Zanpakutos against you, they wrecked the place, and now they are currently hiding somewhere", Ichigo summarized looking at all of them. "Is that the gist of it?"
"Yes", Ukitake nodded.
"Alright looks like I'm here to stay until this gets cleaned up", Ichigo smirked clapping his hands together.
"What about the royal guard?" Captain Renji asked.
"Oh they don't know I'm here", everyone sweat dropped and some even smacked their foreheads in frustration. "I'd say we got about twelve hours until they figure out I'm not in the soul palace", Ichigo said glancing at his Disney watch.
LATER
Rukia Kuchiki and her Zanpakuto Sode no Shirayuki battled each other. Without her shikai and bankai abilities Rukia was forced to rely on kido while the spirit had full access to its abilities and then some. Before their blades could clash once more a blur of orange and black appeared between them.
"Whoa time out! Girls! Girls! You're both pretty!" Ichigo stood in the middle lazily holding both of their blades.
"Ichigo!" Rukia was surprised to see the Soul King here, now of all times dressed in his black sleeveless and backless skin tight top, black fingerless gloves that went up to his biceps and matching hakama pants with boots.
"What up shrimp?" Ichigo grinned at her tossing his long unruly orange hair. "Miss me?" Rukia wanted to scowl at him but a sudden wave of ice from Sode no Shirayuki about to impact her friend surprised her.
"Look out!" She shouted.
"Please", Ichigo rolled his eyes and without turning around simply flicked his wrist at the ice and blew it away with a massive shockwave. "That all you got snow white!?" Ichigo grinned looking at the stoic Zanpakuto. Sode no Shirayuki prepared another attack.
"And just who might you be?" Ichigo turned hearing a voice from the left. Standing atop one of the roofs was a brown haired man dressed in white robes with absurdly long fingernails.
"Well hello there", Ichigo waved at the newcomer. "Nice fingernails, I bet you give great back scratches. Is it hard to jerk off with those?" Muramasa just glared at him with disgust.
"Your reiatsu is far beyond that of the captains, but I don't remember seeing you in the seireitei before", the spirit looked down at Ichigo in confusion.
"Oh! You must be that Masume guy I heard about", Ichigo said.
"I am Muramasa", he corrected.
"Morsmordre"
"Muramasa"
"Mitsubushi", Ichigo chuckled.
"Who are you?" Muramasa demanded getting annoyed.
"What you haven't heard?" Ichigo looked over at Rukia. "Hear that shrimp, he hasn't heard", with his hands held out he introduced himself in a sinister tone. "I'm the new Soul King, the Dark Lord Ichigo!", weirdly a clap of thunder echoed across the city, but there was not a cloud in the sky.
"Don't claim the title of dark lord!" Rukia yelled at him.
"But it just rolls off the tongue so nice", Ichigo argued while emphasizing his title with his hands. "Dark…Lord…Ichigo. Oh! Doesn't that just sound incredibly sexy?"
"No it doesn't it" Rukia and her Zanpakuto said simultaneously. It seems Ichigo being a prick was the one thing they agreed on.
"When it comes out of my Hime's mouth it does", Ichigo closed his eyes while reminiscing how she called him that in bed. "Great now I'm aroused!"
"You're the soul king?" Muramasa couldn't believe this. Wait a second! The soul king was the strongest being in sol society, hell the entire universe. His Zanpakuto must be incredibly powerful. Getting an idea Muramasa jumped off the roof and charged towards Ichigo in an attempt to use his power on him.
"Watch it Freddy Krueger!" Ichigo remarked ducking out of the way of the spirits hands. As he leaped back he suddenly found himself stuck in midair and unable to move his body. While looking around trying to figure out what was binding him he spotted his reflection in some of the ice left behind from Rukia's Zanpakuto spirit. "Oh that's clever", Ichigo complimented seeing the invisible hands in the reflection holding him in the air. Muramasa took his chance and moved forward reaching into his soul to drag out his Zanpakuto.
ICHIGO'S INNER WORLD
In a vast desert covered by shattered ruins from the palace in the sky that was demolished and fell from the heavens. A pale figure sat on a broken throne surrounded by the rubble, with a bunch of identical beautiful bat winged women lounging around him. The pale figure suddenly opened his eyes, sensing something off.
"This is starting to get interesting", he smirked getting standing up from his throne.
REAL WORLD
A black explosion eclipsed both Ichigo and Muramasa. The entire Gotei finally arrived to the scene only to see the blast before they could stop anything.
"Ichigo!" Rukia shouted into the cloud of smoke.
"Stop shouting I'm fine", Ichigo himself walked out of the cloud looking relatively alright. "What up?"
"What happened in there?" Ukitake was the first to ask.
"The fellow with the scary fingernails did something to me", Ichigo said not really caring.
"Did he release your Zanpakuto?" Renji asked with worry.
"I've got no strings to hold me down…", a creepy distorted voice sang from the inside of the smoke in front of them. " To make me fret to make me frown".
"Yes Red, yes he did", Ichigo didn't seem scared at all while internally everyone was panicking. The Zanpakuto of the soul king was now manifested in their world and free to do as he wished, who wouldn't panic.
"I had strings, but now I'm free…", Out of the smoke stepped an exact copy of Ichigo except it was bleached pure white, had yellow on black eyes with goat like pupils, and pointed horns sticking out of his mane of long hair. He was dressed in a white long coat with thick black fur trimming the sleeves and collar, white pants, black boots with skulls printed on the top. His coat was left open revealing his muscular chest where the necklaces and chains around his neck decorated with skulls, pentagrams and a medallion shaped like an eye could be seen. His claw like hands were decorated with several rings, one shaped like a sliver skull, one shaped like a serpent eating its tale and a gold ring with a black diamond shaped jewel. "There are…no strings on me", Yami grinned an insane smile at Ichigo who only grinned back.
"This is bad", Kyoraku said nonchalantly despite how nervous he was.
"You have no fucking idea", Yami laughed. Muramasa smirked seeing he now had the strongest Zanpakuto on his side and vanished along with Yami.
"This is starting to get interesting", Ichigo chuckled, not at all concerned.
"How can you be so relaxed?", Byakuya asked with a glare. "The situation can't get any worse"
"It's actually much worse than you all think. He won't obey Muramasa", Ichigo noticed all the questions in their eyes so he decided to explain. "Do you ever wonder where I get all this crazy from? Trust me when I say that my Zanpakuto is much worse, much more insane than me. Think of me…without a filter".
"What the hell do you mean filter?" Renji snapped at him. As far as he and everybody else knew, Ichigo said and did whatever he wanted without remorse or restraint.
"The funny thing is, I don't think you all could handle me at full crazy, so I tone it down", the captains were shocked to hear this. Ichigo was always holding back how twisted he really was. "You all saw a glimpse of how psycho I can be during the Quincy war. Now imagine if you will, a version of me without that restraint and you have my Zanpakuto spirit O no Yami", everyone's eyes went even wider as they realized the horror that the fool Muramasa just unleashed on not only himself, but on all of them.
"OH DEAR GOD!" Renji yelled
"I think it's safe to assume that Muramasa bit off a lot more than he could chew", Kyoraku said getting serious.
"Speaking of chewing, I could go for a big…cheeseburger", Ichigo's stomach growled. "As the soul king I command one of you to point me to the nearest restaurant!" Rukia sighed in aggravation and pointed one out for him.
UNKNOWN CAVERN
"My fellow Zanpakuto I have wonderful news", Muramasa said sitting down in a chair due to exhausting his powers from releasing his new comrade. "In the last battle I was able to free the Zanpakuto of the Soul King himself and bring him over to our cause", the cave suddenly went silent while all the spirits turned pale at what he just said.
"Um…did you just say that you freed the Zanpakuto of Ichigo….Kurosaki?" Senbonzakura questioned with an anxious tone.
"You should all be happy, with his power on our side we'll be unbeatable", everyone took a fearful step back from Muramasa when Yami appeared directly behind where he sat. The white doppelganger of Ichigo gently massaged Muramasa's neck and shoulders.
"Blah blah blah blah blaaah", Yami said with a creepy tone. "All that chit chat's gonna get yah hurt", he said slapping his hands on the spirits shoulder's making him jump in surprise. Yami leaned over growling rather animalistic at Muramasa while he circled him like a predator stalking its prey. Muramasa remained perfectly still where he sat as an aura of absolute horror and madness poured from the Soul King's Zanpakuto. Standing straight Yami held his hand out expecting something. Muramasa looked at the other Zanpakuto spirits for help but they just stood there waiting for him to pay respects to the most powerful spirit in the room. Not knowing what else to do Muramasa kissed the silver skull shaped ring on his finger. Yami just watched him silently then out of nowhere suddenly moved forward with a grin and sat on the other's lap.
"I can tell you meant that", he cackled slowly grabbing the spirits his neck and face. "You gonna be my friend?" Yami asked with a frown.
"Y-y-yes", Muramasa stuttered in terror. The pale version of Ichigo just smiled in the creepiest way possible.
"Good, I can't wait to show you my toys", he said while tapping the spirit's scared face. The other Zanpakuto spirits were starting to wonder if their wielders would take them back.
RESTAURANT
"Alright let's assess the situation", the head captain said standing from his seat in the middle of the long table at the burger place that they followed Ichigo to. The other captains and lieutenants sat in different spots around the table listening to Kyoraku while Ichigo himself ate his meal at the head of the table. "What kind of damage do you think Ichigo's Zanpakuto can do?" The Soul king wasn't even paying attention he was too busy eating his cheeseburger while reading a Naruto manga.
"Ha, Sasuke….you dumb bitch", Ichigo chuckled turning a page.
"Can you please focus, so we can figure out a way to stop your insane Zanpakuto", Soi Fon snapped at him.
"Oh don't worry he always does this, you know try to destroy me", Ichigo said turning another page.
"Wait your Zanpakuto tries to kill you?" Ukitake asked with concern.
"It's a game we play all the time that's all. One of us pretends to be god, one of us is the devil and then we try to destroy each other. It's really fun, we always laugh and have a good time", he chuckled taking another bite of his meal.
"This isn't a game Ichigo", Rukia said sternly.
"That's where your wrong my fine vertically challenged friend", Ichigo laughed at her pissed off expression. "To us it is a game, but what I advise to the rest of you is not to interfere with our game when he shows up. Yami doesn't like other players unless he invites them to join"
"Like hell", Kenpachi grinned at the prospect of a strong opponent.
"I'm serious Kenpachi, Yami isn't as merciful as me, I'm only giving you a fair warning", Ichigo said knowing it wouldn't convince the captain. Oh well ,he'll understand soon enough. A loud boom followed by a small earthquake stopped any further conversation. "Let the games begin"
OUTSIDE
The Zanpakuto spirits were attacking the seireitei once again. Oddly enough their attacks seemed very random without a target or purpose. The shinigami split up to find and deal with their own individual spirits. Ichigo stood facing off against Senbonzakura, Hyorinmaru and Zabimaru without an ounce of fear despite being surrounded by the Zanpakutos of three captains. Before they could start, his phone rang.
"Time out!" Ichigo shouted answering the call. "Yello! Oh hey Hime!" He smiled hearing his soon to be wife on the other end. "No everything's fine here", he spoke while the Zanpakuto spirits stood frozen too afraid to attack him right now. "Yeah give me about three hours and I'll have this wrapped up in a jiffy", Ichigo smiled listening to her concerns. "When I get back I'm going to rock your world sweetie", the others just sighed in annoyance. "That's right…all the whipped cream baby", he said suggestively before hanging up then cleared his throat. "Ahem, wrong number".
"Do you have to make a fool of yourself all the time?" Senbonzakura asked in manner similar to his wielder Byakuya.
"You would know…being Byakuya's Zanpakuto", he chuckled. They were about to mount another attack on Ichigo when a sudden dark reiatsu washed over them all. The only one unaffected by it was of course Ichigo himself. "I was wondering when you were going to make a move in this game of ours!" He shouted looking passed the others to see Yami himself standing atop a nearby building. Surprising many of the shinigami was that Muramasa was there with him expect he was tied to a metal cross with a gag keeping his mouth shut.
"Fancy meeting you here Ichigo!" Yami laughed while smacking Muramasa in the head for trying to yell through the gag.
"This is a shock, I figured even a sadistic bastard like you would at least be grateful to the one he set you loose in the world" Ichigo commented taking a bite of the chocolate bar he seemed to have obtained from nowhere.
"Oh we were cool", the white Ichigo grinned and gripped the bound Muramasa by the throat. "But then he tried to boss me around and so he ended up in this predicament with me taking over his little rebellion", Yami grinned and jumped off the roof to land in between Ichigo and the other Zanpakuto spirits that he was previously fighting. "Unfortunately for them I don't really give a flying fuck what their beefs are with the shinigami, I just want to play our little game again out in the real world where stakes are raised!" He laughed hysterically.
"Alright now you're talking", Ichigo laughed as well. Senbonzakura, Hyorinmaru, and the two parts of Zabimaru ran like the dickens, not wanting to get caught in between these two titans. "So you want to be god or the devil this time".
"I like playing Satan, but then again, playing god is just as fun", Ichigo rolled his eyes at his words. He knew it didn't matter what role they picked, the point of the game was to destroy the other.
"How do you want to start El Blanco", Ichigo joked.
"Like this!" Yami grinned pointing his sharp finger at Ichigo forming a black ball of energy. "Cero Oscuros!"
"Oh balls", Ichigo flash stepped out of the path of the dark destructive blast. The cero destroyed a line of buildings in its path, while being powerful enough to shake the city in its wake. "Okay new rule, let's not do that again".
"Your just jelly that you can't use my powers now that I'm outside", Yami grinned.
"Your right, I can't", Ichigo said dejectedly. His white copy laughed and summoned a large black sword that he used to charge at him with. As soon as he brought the blade down Ichigo caught it with his bare hand that was covered in red glowing veins. "Well look at that, I can still use my Quincy powers", Yami's eyes widened in surprise. "In the words of Scooby Doo, Ruh Roh", Ichigo smiled and slammed his fist into his double's stomach sending him flying. With a simple snap of his fingers Ichigo fired a barrage of black reishi arrows at the other's body.
"Cheap mother fucker!" Yami growled smacking the projectiles away with his bare hands.
"Hey who am I?" Ichigo asked while using his black reishi to make a fake moustache. "I can see the future, blah, blah, BLAH!"
"I should have figured without me you would use the powers that you stole from that old fuck face", Yami sneered at him.
"Hey! He stole those powers from the Quincies, I merely relieved him of what was not his and then used them to enhance my own", Ichigo argued.
"How does it feel? Being a parasite like he was", the white version of Ichigo asked.
"It feels sexy", Ichigo answered surprising the other that he wasn't denying. "What? Your right I am a parasite. I feed off the love I get from Orihime, and the attention and admiration of my friends. That's what makes me strong, without it I would die", he said with a smile. "The power I sucked out of Yhwach is nothing compared to that".
"Oh I can't wait to crush you", Yami grinned summoning another black blade. "First thing I'll do when your gone is plow that pretty girlfriend of yours, on top of that bear skin rug in your office".
"Talking about fucking my future wife. Is that really a road you want to go down with me?" Ichigo said rather darkly. "Tell you what, I'll let you hit me with your best shot. If I'm amused I won't kick your dick in"
"I love it when you talk dirty to me!", Yami grinned and jumped back to get some distance as his reiatsu increased dramatically.
"Bring it, you silly pale bitch!" Ichigo stood still as he watched his counterpart hold his sword in the air and gathered his hollow reishi together forming a huge glowing beam shaped like a crescent moon.
"Getsuga…Gran Rey Cero!" Yami grinned wildly throwing the large crescent shaped attack right at his opponent. Ichigo smiled letting the attack come at him.
"Oh how cute he named it OH SHIT!" The attack hit him dead on carving through the ground and Ichigo's body. When the dust settled he stood there with a giant bleeding gash in his torso. The white version of himself stood there laughing hysterically at him. "You…think…this is funny?", Ichigo struggled to stand clutching his wound while Yami laughed even harder. "You think this is funny!" He continued to laugh at his double. "It's not as funny…as your face", Ichigo smiled and suddenly dissolved into black dust. The real Ichigo walked out of the shadows. His eyes glowed yellow while his pupils were stretched horizontally into oval shapes.
"Cheating son of a bitch", Yami growled at him.
"You forgot about my 'A' ability, didn't you?" Ichigo asked bemused. Snapping his fingers he used the power of the Antecedent to summon numerous versions of himself from alternate pasts. "Sick him!" All the carbon copies charged Yami with all sorts of different weapons. In an instant they were all obliterated into dust by a large black mass.
"I'm going to skull fuck your corpse when I'm done with you!", Yami shouted when the blast died down.
"Ah. Scary", Ichigo said nonchalantly while summoning more copies with his transcendent ability to attack his Zanpakuto. Dodging another cero he landed on the roof next to a still bound and crucified Muramasa who could only silently stare at him. "Don't look to me for sympathy buddy. I could be at home in my palace with Orihime bent over the bed, but nooooo you had to start some shit. On a Friday too, you dick", Ichigo glared at the spirit.
"Cero!" The white Ichigo laughed hysterically while firing more hollow attacks at the real Ichigo destroying more clones and buildings of the seireitei.
"You shoot like a girl", Ichigo mocked dodging another cero and hiding behind a building.
"Ichigo! Come and to play-ay!" Yami charged another black cero on his finger and pointed it at the area he knew the other was hiding. "Cero Oscuros!" This one completely annihilated a small section of the city in one single burst.
"He's really going overboard", Ichigo remarked watching this all happen from the air. "Shunko", an orange glowing aura covered his body as the gravity around him began to shift and distort. With his left hand he made a lifting motion.
"Whoa! Whoa!" Yami was lifted into the air along with numerous bits of rubble and chunks of earth.
"What goes up, must come down!" Ichigo chuckled turning off his Shunko and letting gravity return to normal.
"You diiiiiiick!" Yami shouted as he fell to the ground as debris and rubble rained down on top of him.
"That all you got sugar cookie!" He yelled back.
"Sugar cookie?" Yami questioned crawling out of the mess.
"Well your certainly no strawberry filling like me", Ichigo grinned pissing his Zanpakuto off even more.
"That's it! I'm going Bankai!"
"Oh, you're going Bankai?"
"Going Bankai"
"He's going Bankai"
"BAN!" Yami held his arms in the air with a despicable grin on his face. "KAI!"
"Fuck me", Ichigo watched as the blackness exploded out of his white doppelganger, eclipsing everything around him in a dark viscous matter that seemed both a solid and a liquid, destroying everything it touched. At the center of this black maelstrom of chaos Yami stood laughing. "That's how you want to play it? Okay!"
"Teufel Bogen!" Raising his hand in the air he gathered his black reishi and it began forming a giant pentagram in the sky with a huge horned skull in the center. "Mephistopheles!" The skull opened its maw of sharp teeth and charged a giant black arrow poised to take Yami out.
"Let's see who blinks first!" The white Ichigo laughed maniacally.
"LET'S!" Ichigo shouted back.
"This is bad, they're both going to destroy the seireitei!" Rukia screamed at Renji while they watched the fight from a distance.
"We need to stop them", Captain Hitsugaya said while his Zanpakuto Hyorinmaru nodded his head. However he was stopped when Kyoraku appeared and grabbed Toshiro's shoulder.
"Wait, just watch", they all looked at him like he was nuts, but the man simply smiled seeing a familiar figure floating above Ichigo, not yet noticed by him.
"FUCKING DIE!" Yami hollered launching a massive wave of darkness at his enemy.
"YOU FIRST!" Ichigo yelled launching the massive black arrow. Right before their attacks met in the middle and destroyed the seireitei in the resulting a collision a gigantic yellow triangular shield appeared between the two. The attacks simultaneously hit the barrier and exploded upon impact, however instead of obliterating everything, the black energy that spread outwards was swallowed up by a golden light and then dispersed in a glittering shower of particles. Strangely enough, even the shockwave was completely cancelled out.
"Stop this right now!" Ichigo flinched from the voice coming from behind him. He turned and saw his wife to be Orihime floating in midair, her white and gold angel wings spread out, yellow flower shaped halo glowing above her head, dressed in a white tube top, and matching skirt. What really made him nervous was the serious look in her eyes.
'Uh-oh, I know that tone', Ichigo thought remembering the last time she spoke to him like this.
"What are you doing? I could feel everything from up in the soul palace", she looked mad.
"He started it!" Ichigo pointed at Yami hoping he would deflect her anger.
"Hey! Don't drag me down with you asshole!" Yami deactivated his bankai and made his way over to the couple. When he was close enough he suddenly paused as if caught in a daze while staring at Orihime. "Holy…shit. That's what your girl looks like?"
"I thought you could see her from inside my inner world?" Ichigo questioned amused.
"Yeah, but I thought I was just seeing her the way you see her" Yami floated over and began to circle Orihime looking her up and down. "She is way hotter in person. I mean damn! Look at that!" she blushed wildly at his compliments.
"I know she's something", Ichigo smirked.
"Don't change the subject", Orihime suddenly remembered why she was mad.
"Where do you find a bra to fit those?" He asked pointing at her large breasts.
"She doesn't wear a bra, she never does", Ichigo explained and much to his surprise a bunch of black blood shot from his white copy's nose. "Did you just get a nose bleed?"
"NO!" Yami lied whipping it away mumbling something about lucky bastards getting to sleep with sexy angels.
"Why are you jelly, don't you have a harem to play with?" Ichigo reminded him of the numerous amount of girls he created to keep the spirit of his Zanpakuto entertained.
"I do, but if I had a girl like that. I wouldn't get a wink of sleep", he said suggestively.
"I don't get much sleep either, just so you know", Ichigo said truthfully. "Why do you think I'm always tweaking out on sugar and caffeine", he just noticed something interesting, they stopped fighting. "So are we cool now"
"Yeah we're cool, I just wanted to get out and have some fun", Yami rubbed the back of his head awkwardly. Ichigo grabbed him and put him in a head lock.
"Awe! I can't stay mad at what is essentially me. I love me!" He laughed while his double fought against his hold.
"Desire to kill…rising", Yami growled.
"I guess we owe Orihime more than we think", Kyoraku chuckled while watching the scene. "She seems to be the only one that can get Ichigo and his Zanpakuto under control", Renji, Rukia and Toshiro were all slack jawed at what they just witnessed. All that escalation, just ended because she yelled at her boyfriend.
"Love will do that to a person", Ukitake said appearing a flash step. Yoruichi also appeared with him scoffing at what the captain just said.
"More like he's completely whipped", she remarked.
"Alright let me fix all of this", Orihime levitated herself high in the air spreading her wings nice and wide. Golden snowflakes of light rained down upon the seireitei, spreading into a shining mist. Everything it touched began repairing itself as if the flow of time was being reversed. Buildings were magically rebuilt, holes were filled until everything looked back to before this conflict started. Orihime even used her power to free the Zanpakuto spirits from whatever spell that Muramasa placed on their minds. Though they wouldn't return to inside their respective inner worlds for some time, until the reiatsu ran out.
"NO!" Muramasa still bound managed to loosen the gag in his mouth just as the gold mist touched him. "I won't go back! I WON'T!" In a matter of moments he was reverted into a single Zanpakuto that fell and clattered harmlessly to the ground.
"He was a Zanpakuto the whole time", Ichigo said walking over and picking the now silent blade up. "What a Shyamalan twist!" He snickered carrying the sword with him. "Hey Kyoraku, you want to lock this somewhere secure!" The soul king shouted tossing the blade. The head captain easily caught it with one hand. "I recommend Muken, give Aizen some company".
"Will do your highness", Kyoraku tipped his hat respectfully happy that everything was resolved rather easily.
"So Hime want to go back up to the palace for a little all night loving?" Ichigo asked vanishing over to his girlfriend and wrapping his arm around her waist.
"I'm still upset for the mess you made", Orihime said softly.
"I'm sorry, truly I am. Let me make it up to you", Ichigo whispered in her ear knowing how much that turned her on.
"Can I join in!?" Yami asked like an excited little boy.
"W-WHAT!?" Orihime's face turned impossibly red at what he was suggesting.
"I don't see why not. I mean Hime, he's basically me in my purest form, so it's not like having sex with someone else", Ichigo tried to explain in a way she would understand.
"He's right we're one and the same. I just like violence and chaos a little more than him", Even O no Yami tried to convince her.
"W-well um….okay. I guess it would be the same as being with two of you at the same time", Orihime sounded like she was going for this.
"Holy shit, you're actually going for this", Ichigo looked shocked.
"Did we just get her to agree to a threesome?" Even the white Ichigo was shocked. "Fist bump"
"Fist bump", Ichigo knocked fist with his copy. Yami quickly swept Orihime up carrying her bridal.
"I'll get us started!" He smiled opening a garganta that led to the soul palace. Orihime covered her face to hide her embarrassment especially with everyone looking at her.
"Crazy bastard", Ichigo chuckled watching them head through the portal.
"Pot, kettle, black", Yoruichi shot him a look that said he didn't know how good he had it.
"Well got to go, got a princess to ravish", he said in a fake British accent leaving through the garganta with a wave.
"Must be nice to be the king", Kyoraku chuckled.
Well this ended up being longer than I thought it would be. Sorry about the wait, since these are each one shots they take a while to do. The Zanpakuto rebellion was probably one of my favorite filler arcs, mainly because we got to see what the spirits of other Shinigami look like. Though I cant figure out why Koga Kuchiki was sealed away in the human world, why not Muken, if he was so dangerous? I'm ranting again, sorry.
Next up I'm doing something with the Hell Verse movie. I've got some fun ideas for that one, plus the return of some shall we say familiar faces.
I'll then do an Orihime chapter, basically something from her perspective in all this. Which will lead into the wedding story. I also might do a tournament arc just for fun.
Thanks for reading.
