AN- Here is chapter 2, it should be a little longer... maybe better? Anyways enjoy. Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach, Tite Kubo owns Bleach. If i owned it then it would probably be shit.
It was eerily quiet as the effects of the expolsion dissapatied.
Urahara gazed into the smoke which was blocking his sight of Ichigo. He jumped back just in case.
"Boss, should i seal him with kido?", Tessai asked with concern edged in his voice.
"No... Theres no need to do that now, look at Ichigo, he's got his powers back, it seems.", Urahara sighed with relief as he started walking towards Ichigo.
The smoke cleared completely revealing Ichigo standing still in Soul reaper clothes, holding a broken Zanpuckto but something was wrong he had a Hollow mask on.
Urahara stopped and waited to see what would happen as he saw Ichigo lift his Zanpuckto up and slam the hilt into the mask causing it to crumble to pieces falling to the floor.
"Wow, Im surprised Ichigo, you completed lesson 1 and 2 in less then a day, thats pretty amazing how about we start lesson 3?", Urahara said as he acted like nothing happened.
Ichigo just sighed in annoyance as he stomped over to Urahara, and then hit him over the head with the hilt.
"I bet your smart ass had something to do with this shitty Hollow, Urahara! Its your fault for putting me through this thing you call 'training' ", Ichigo said with a smirk, enjoying seeing Urahara crouched on the floor moaning in pain comically.
Urahara got back up suddenly serious, his eyes shadowed by his hat, "Listen Ichigo, this is serious, after the next lesson im afraid i can't train you anymore...".
"Wait what... are you mad!!, i thought you were gonna train me for the next 10 days atleast!! it hasnt even been 1 day!", Ichigo said with a puzzled expression.
They both just stood their quietly, neither saying a word, wind rustling their clothes softly.
"Wait where the HELL is the wind coming from?, its a damn basement for petes sake!!!!, Ichigo shouted at Urahara.
..."I installed fans to make us look cool",Urahara said with a smirk
Ichigo just stared at Urahara, feeling pity for him.
"Anyways, i have no training method that can help with that hollow of yours BUT i know a certain group that can help you, however lets finish Lesson 3 then I'll take you to them Ichigo, its for the best".
Ichigo stared blankly at Urahara but eventually he gave in, "Alright, whatever as long as i get stronger, then i don't care, i have to save Rukia!".
"Lesson 3 is simple, knock my hat off , and there is no time limit, its ea- Urahara was interupted by Ichigo swinging his broken Zanpuckto at his hat, nearly knocking it off.
"Heh, no time limit you say? thats too easy, I'll knock it off in 5 minutes flat!", Ichigo said confidently holding up 5 fingers for emphasis.
Urahara suddenly becoming very serious, he unsheathed his sword out of his cane and swung his sword at Ichigo which Ichigo narrowly dodged.
"Damn it!!", Ichigo shouted as he ran away from Urahara, then realised something that he heard awhile ago.
Ichigo stopped and turned around smirking. "Heh, only Zanpucktos can harm me in this form, not some crappy sword." Urahara looked at him grimly.
"You think this is just a normal sword?, you are a fool to think that, dont underestimate your opponents so quickly, Awaken Benihime" Urahara said actaviting Shikai.
He Zankpuckto changed its form, to a slim and sleek sword, with no crossguard, instead it had a "U" shape pattern, it also had a red tassel at the end. Instead of being pointy end, his sword was more razor like.
"He...he changed his Zanpuckto, just like Renji did", Ichigo thought as memories of Renji changing his Zanpuckto with a command flooded through his mind.
"Ah shit!!, What do i do, he's gonna kill me", Ichigo screamed, panicking as he dodged several slashes from Urahara, who seemed to actually want to kill him, judging by the amount of damage his strikes were causing to the area. Ichigo quickly blocked Uraharas attack with his broken Zanpuckto, but to his shock Uraharas sword cut right through his, essentially leaving him fighting with a hilt.
Ichigo contuined to run and dodged Urahara's attacks, 'I'm gonna die, i cant do anything', Ichigo thought in fear. Then he stopped right in his tracks. Urahara stopped as well, knowing what was happening.
"Ichigo...
Ichigo..."
"You're that old man... no...your my Zankpucto", Ichigo said with realisation.
"Do not fear, strive to move forward, go back and you will age, hestiate and you die."
Ichigo felt new power start to fill him, he turned around to Urahara and lifted his sword.
"My name is-
"ZANGESTU!!", Ichigo shouted while swinging out a wave of energy at Urahara to which he narrowly dodged it.
Ichigo stood there holding a complelty different sword, it looked like a giant meat cleaver, with no guard on it and a white strap around the hilt.
"Well im impressed...lesson 3 is- Urahara started saying but was interupted by Ichigo.
"Sorry, Urahara ... Please dodge this, because i wont hold back!!!!!", Ichigo shouted as he lifted up his Zanpuckto and swung with all his force sending out a massive energy wave.
"Crap!, Cry Behime!! Urahara quickly said as he lifted his sword up. He barely put up a shield in time and to his dismay he saw his hat on the floor.
"Jeez... if i didnt put up that sheild then you would of cut me in half." Urahara said in shock as he looked at the amount of destruction the attack had done. , "I dont know if that Hollow had anything to do with it, but you seem stronger then you should be, that's good...but frightening."
Ichigo fell over from exhuastion, he had to much shit to handle today.
The next day.
"So you are gonna take me to a group called the Vizards, right?, they had the same problem as me but they fixed it?" Ichigo asked as Urahara explained the situation.
"Yes, here's the plan Ichigo, you go to the Vizards and ask for help and if they are willing to help then you can sort out that problem of yours, then ask them to train you for the next two weeks, after that take two days off. Then it will be time to go to Soul society.", Urahara explained not happy about the situation.
"That sounds good, hopefully those...Vizards can help me.", Ichigo said he as nearly forget the name. " "Lets go!"
Ichigo walked in the direction that Urahara had instructed him, it was a hot sunny day with no cloud in sight, 'Too hot for my taste', Ichigo thought in annoyance as he got to the place Urahara told him to go to.
"This is it!?" Ichigo exclaimed as he saw a old abandoned warehouse that seemed clearly abadoned.
Suddenly the air shifted in front if him and a barrier formed, it opened and a Blonde haired man waked out wearing normal day to day clothes and brandishing a cap, and he was holding his sword in its sheath.
Oi, you that kid that Urahara told us about, Ichigo Kurosaki right? its a pleasure to meet ya, The names Shinji Hirako, Ya came here to join the Vizards?", Shinji said as he gave a large quite creepy grin at Ichigo.
"I didn't come to join your crappy club, i came to ask for help" Ichigo said with annoyance while rolling his eyes.
"Huh?, Im afraid it's not that simple Ichigo", Shinji stated as he moved calmly out of the way of a girl who flew past him. Ichigo didn't dodge in time and got slapped by the girls slop causing him to fall back on to the ground quite roughly.
"You dickhead, we decide if you join, not you, i don't give a shit what you think about that, you gonna have to prove yourself if you think you can join us", The girl shouted at Ichigo at annoyance. She was a short girl with blonde hair and a red jacket, who seem clearly annoyed at every single thing.
"Oi Hiyori, don't be so rough on the poor guy, he just got here", Shinji said with irritation and was promptly met with a slop to the face as well causing him to mutter "sorry" several times.
"WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT FOR, you little freak!!?", Ichigo shouted as he got back and marched over to Hiyori, and was sent back reeling by a kick to the face.
"What did you say to me?!", Hiyori exclaimed with anger as she looked down at Ichigo who was holding his bruised nose.
"Look i dont have time for this, I have to go save my friend, I cant waste what precious time i have to train by arguing like little kids!, So please i ask you to help me get control of this stupid hollow". Ichigo said swallowing his pride he bowed down knowing he had no other choice
Surpised by this Hiyori calmed down and looked over to Shinji to see what he had to say.
"You're really serious about this aren't you? We'll help ya, however we need to see your hollow in action first to determine its strength, after that we will deal with it, usaully we will take our time with this but ya sound in a hurry. So lets start, Ichigo Kurosaki" Shinji said with a omnious grin as he gestured for Ichigo to follow him into the warehouse.
As Ichigo walked in he saw that it looked somewhat normal inside, with two stories, and furniture all around. He looked around and saw 6 other people inside, 8 including Shinji and Hiyori.
"Oh you guys are back!! You brought Mr berry with you as well", A green haired girl wearing white clothes that looked like a jumpsuit, said very enthusiasticly.
"Oi Mashiro, stop acting like an idiot and stop giving such weird nicknames", a silver haired man who was quite musclar wearing a tank top with military jeans said with annoyance.
"Awwww Dont be such a drag Kensei",Mashiro said while pouting.
After greeting everyone, Ichigo realised they were all crazy. Maybe except for Hachi, who was a very large man, wearing a green uniform and had pink hair, he seemed normal, he was basically like a friendly giant, almost like Chad...but alot bigger.
Rose only liked playing or talking about music, he had long blonde hair and was wearing normal black clothes.
Love wore shades and had black spiky hair and only seemed interested in reading Manga and laughing at it, and sometimes trying to get the others intrested in it ...which was annoying to say the least.
Lisa was a women with black hair, and only seemed intrested in looking at womens modeling books...she was a pervert, otherwise she looked bored all the time.
"Well alright, now that pleasantries are out of the way, lets begin, Ichigo. Lets see your Hollow.", Shinji said as he started walking towards Ichigo.
Ichigo saw everyone except Shinji jumping away from them as if a fight was gonna start.
"Wait... i dont know how to bring that thing out, isnt this dangerous Shinji!", Ichigo said as he saw Shinji unsheath his sword.
"I'll just have to force it out of ya then".
With that said Shinji charged at Ichigo and aimed at his chest which Ichigo barely blocked but as he blocked his sword cracked heavily under the force of Shinji's attack.
'Damn it!!', Ichigo quickly forced Shinji off him, and charged at him and swung downwards at Shinji, who blocked it with a smirk and pushed Ichigo's sword to the side then cut Ichigo across the gut with ease.
With a grunt Ichigo jumped back panting heavily, 'Damn, he's so strong. The more i fight... the more i can feel the hollows influence as he is trying to take control, Shit', Ichigo thought feeling fear rise up as he felt himself lose control.
Ichigos eyes started turning black and gold, and he charged at Shinji screaming eerily and going much faster then before. Shinji barely blocked it in time, not expecting such an increase.
'Heh, you wanted to see my strength did ya, well here ya go, its me in the flesh, Its gonna be a pleasure to kill you all"Hichigo charged at Shinji attacking several times with much greater strength and speed, with a wide monstrous grin on its face.
"Oi SHINJI, stop being such a weakling and kick that things ass already", Hiyori complained as she watched them fight, neither of them getting the upper hand.
"Shut up Hiyori, just let me fight in peace", Shinji shouted back in annoyance.
Shinji finally got the upper hand and kicked him down into the training ground, which was similar to Urahara's. All the Vizards quickly followed them down.
Hachi put a massive barrier around Shinji and Hichigo so they could contain the fight so it wouldnt get out of hand.
"Alright we will take turns every 10 minutes until Ichigo finally beats his hollow ...Well if he beats it, ya all got that", Shinji said after blocking a strike from the Hollow and striking back at him.
"YES" they all chanted.
68 minutes later.
Shinji Hirako wasnt a man that usaully panicked, even if it was a tough situation he usaully stays calm. Today wasnt one of those days, as he looked at Ichigo who was completly a hollow now, pointing a massive cero at him which was a Red orb emmiting out if its fingers.
As it was about to shoot it at Shinji it suddenly lurched forward in agnoy, giving an agonising scream that left fear in your soul. A huge explosion occured just as Shinji jumped out of the barrier.
They all looked in suspense as the hollow broke apart, and they saw Ichigo dawning a Hollow mask, Ichigo fell on to the ground obvousily feeling very tired from all the fighting.
"I... i... is Mr Berry okay Shinji??", Mashiro asked concern edged in her voice as they saw Ichigo wasn't moving.
The tense atmosphere hung over the room as everyone remained quiet.
Shinji then walked over to Ichigo and stared at him for a few seconds then said solemnly-
"He's dead".
AN- Wooooo got that done, hopfully it was good, sorry i gave such a long introduction of the Vizards, hopefully it wasn't super boring. Thanks for reading. Maybe the Soul society arc will start by chapter 4.
