Ichigo's P.O.V
It's been I full month after I accepted the captain's position of squad 10. there is so much work that by the end of each day I think my hand is about to fall off. The only thing that keeps me going is seeing Rukia every single day, that makes it all worth it, that smile she gives me, the laugh she has, even that stupid school girl voice drives my crazy. I have only come to term with this myself in the past week or so and that is I love Rukia Kuchiki. I was deep in thought as I always am I my day off during the week, all officers get one day off a week until I heard a very annoying voice I hoped to never hear
"YO!, Captain Carrot-top" Karitoru-ki yelled as he walked into my office
"what do you want Karitoru-ki?" I asked, he's been spending way to much time with Renji
"I came to tell you that there is a hollow in Karrakura town that your Girlfriend/Lieutenant just went after" He said and walked out the door
"wait, why would Yammamoto said a luietenant to take care of one simple hollow" I thought to myself not yet getting he just called Rukia my Girlfriend, "this place just keeps getting weirder everyday" I said before a hell butterfly came in onto my finger
"all captains to the squad 1 Barracks immediately we have a situation" Yammamoto said
"wonder what the old man wants now?" I asked and walked out the door to the captains meeting taking my time.
"I hear by call this captain's meeting started" Yammamoto said and we all looked at him
"why are we here Head-Captain you said we have a situation?" Ukitake asked his face as serious as it has ever been
"yeah old man yamma, who would try to stop us after we beat Aizen" Shunsui added
"the Mao are returning" Yammamoto replied and all the other captains gasped but me
"huh?, Head-captain no disrespect but who are these Mao?" I asked and the head captain looked at me
"Captain Kurosaki these Mao are ex-Soul Reapers who have merged themselves with demons they have their normal Zanpakuto and another that has very unique ability that make them hard to defeat, only captain and Lieutenant class soul reapers stand a chance of winning" Yammamoto explained
"and you sent Rukia after one of them!" I yelled
"we had no choice like I said only captain and Lieutenant class soul reapers can defeat them" Yammamoto replied his spirit energy rising showing he was not happy with me
"I don't care you sent Rukia after one of those thing!" I yelled again and turned through the door and was gone
"this was the weakness I told him I would take advantage off" Karitoru-ki said and flash-stepped of to who knows where
"I can't believe they just sent Rukia out there to fight that creƤture" I said through gritted teeth and continued to run off where I can sence Rukia's spiritual pressure flaring then decreasing, "oh shit Rukia!" I yelled and I jumped down to where I found her laying on the ground a sword in her stomach her Spiritual pressure dropping the man standing their with his other sword wearing soul reaper clothes but were mutliple colores just like Karitoru-ki's, but this guy had black hair and a mischievous grin on his face, "I WILL KILL YOU BASTERD" I yelled and black/red spiritual pressure sored around me the red bandage on my hilt fluttering in the air my uniform turning into pure black spiritual preassure and had yellow rimming my bankai blade was all black still but the red bandage was still on the bottom
"hmm, we got us here a captain, and he has a compressed Bankai, maby you will be a better fight than this bitch" the man said and my spirit energy flared even higher my uniform start to have spirit partical's fly off into the air when he called Rukia a bitch
"How dare you call my Lieutenant a Bitch!" I yelled and flash-stepped to attack him but he just dodged
"your to slow captain maby if I actually kill this bitch you'll fight all out" the man said going over to Rukia but I stopped him with a Getuga Tensio
"I will never let you hurt my Lieutenant!" I continued to yell but my spirit energy stopped increasing, I reached my limit I could use with the brace
"oh it seems you reached your limite captain it seems maby I was wrong about you being a better fight then this liuetenant" he said and raised his sword to kill her
"NO!" I yelled but was silenced when a big bone snake came out of nowhere
"YOU WILL NEVER KILL MY BEST FRIEND YOU BASTARD!" I heard Renji yell and the man was pushed back from Rukia
"nice to see you man" I said, "but I can handle this you just get Rukia out of here" I said and Renji nodded in confirmation, grabbed the still unconscious Rukia and left, "now I WILL KILL YOU" I yelled and ripped the brace of my arm
"hmm you where holding back, well if you are going to go all out I will be happy to oblige" the man said raising his swords into the air, "now murder Korosu" the man said and his two sword came together into one long seretide long sword, the blade was light green with a gold hand guard and hilt, "now die" he said calmly and the world became dark
"where am I?" I asked looking around the dark void
"you're in my mind you see my Korosu's ability sends you into my mind and I can torture you all I want but you can't die and when you leave my mind you will feel all the pain I put you through but will have no marks, ha-ha, good luke no ones ever survived" he said and millions of needles went through my body but no blood came because when I looked down their were no needles or hole marks but I could feel the pain from them
"damn I can I beat this guy when I can't see him or even move without being hit by something" I thought and closed my eyes
"Zangetsu what should we do?"
"we need to find him even though we can't see him now does not mean he isn't here and like he said you cannot die in here that is his flaw" Zangetsu replied and I opened my eyes and they turned blue,black,red
"I WILL FIND YOU" I yelled and spirit energy starting flying off my reshi Uniform and the world started to clear up just enough to make out the demon/ soul reaper, "gotcha" I said and walked to him, every step I took I felt something a sword a spear fire all the worst pains imaginable were going through my being but I continued to walk, not stopping until I killed him
"who or what are you!" he yelled and I raised my sword
"I am... YOUR WORST NIGHTMARE I yelled, my voice mixing with Zangetsu's when I said that and sliced him in half and I awoke on the ground where I was when he activated his Bankai, in the train yard, I tried to get up but the pain I was feeling was like anything I have ever felt before and me killing Grimmjow, dying by the hands of ulquiorra... twice, and fought Aizen that's saying something, "man I guess these Mao guys are pretty tough I had to use Bankai and take the brace off" I said laying back on the ground waiting for the pain to subside and letting sleep find me.
When I woke up I was in a bed with bandages on my chest and rain hitting the window, "where am I?" I asked weakly still feeling the pain from before but not as bad
"how do you not know where you are" a voice said that made me alert but still could not move
"haha, dad how did you find me?" I asked and closed my eyes
"please with the spiritual pressure you where letting off when you fought that demon who couldn't sence you" Isshin replied
"sorry, got angry lost control for a sec" I said and tried to get up, to my surprise I actually did
"well how you been?" Isshin asked, "your sisters miss their big brother"
"yeah sorry just been busy with paperwork I figured that Urahara would have told you and you would have told the twins" I replied ans stood grabbing my Hiori and Zangetsu
"I did and they want to see you" Isshin said
"tell them next week, on my day off I will come by and see them" I said
"will they be able to see you" Isshin asked and I knew what he was implying
"yeah I'll get Urahara to make me a Gigi tonight before I leave so I can use it next week" I said and in a split second I was gone
"just make sure you stay alive until next week, those demons are bad news" Isshin said walking over to his room
And that is the end of chapter three hope you enjoyed the small fight in the story I think it shows just how strong these guys are... anyway let me know what you think Ichigo should do know I think he should train Rukia in Bankai and get some new things himself
