Chapter Three


Shiro and Ichigo were panting for breath. The albino turned to the orange head.

"Tell you what is so fucked up about this."

"What's that?"

"That that should be me killing you, and now here we are working together to stop the old man."

Ichigo smirked. The hollow had a point. It was a strange position to be in with his hollow actually helping it.

"Why can't you just turn into that form, you already did once?"

"Pff! Iif only king. Since you sealed our powers they have become scrambled I have got your Shinigami powers and he got your hollow powers."

Zangetsu sprang from the half destroyed building with Soi Fon. he had his hands around her throat. Ichigo's eyes widened.

"SOI FON!"

Ichigo charged towards Zangetsu. Just as he was close the Zanpaktou spirit shot a cero completely through him, Ichigo's eyes went completely dead and his limp body was kicked into one of the many skyscrapers.

Soi Fon began to cry that he was dead, once you get killed in your inner world it relates to the real world. She had lost the very last thing she had ever felt affection for. She loved him and she never got to tell him. Now she would be alone forever. She saw his hollow run over to where his body landed, but she knew better. He was dead and nothing would change that. Her only wish was that the beast that was holding her would kill her and let her pain end. The beast threw her to the floor and began to charge a cero. Soi Fon looked at the beast and smiled. At least she could hope to meet him again. The explosion covered the area. She opened her eyes and checked herself. She was still alive! She looked in front of her to see a white hollow form. It turned to her and within a flash, before she could even think she was 200 yards away from Zangetsu. Soi Fon looked up as the creature that had saved her roared and felt herself flinch.

"Ichigo," she murmured.

The creature lifted up his horned mask and turned to Soi Fon. The petite girl gasped when she saw Ichigo smirking at her.

"Hey little bee."

"I...I...I saw you die!"

"Yeah, about that, I have died a few times now. This seems to be the way things go, although I've never had control before now."

"How do you feel?"

Ichigo gave her a Shiro style smirk.

"Powerful. Thank you for your help Soi, I will take it from here."

'Did he just give me a pet name' Soi Fon thought as she blushed intensely.

Ichigo put the young girl down and disappeared from sight only to re appear in front of Zangetsu who could only parry from Ichigo's attack. The two started to up there speed and even the captain of squad two had trouble keeping up as they pushed each other harder and harder. It seemed that Ichigo had the upper hand at the moment.

"He is pretty strong isn't he?"

Soi Fon spun around to see a badly bruised and weak Shiro step from the rubble. She was hesitant at first, but eventually gave him a hand.

"Damn, he really is pissed. He is just playing with Zangetsu."

"How do you know?"

"I may be a hollow, but I'm his hollow. I can tell his power level by heart and at the moment he's only using about a 10th."

Soi Fon sat there in amazement. A 10th! This kid could give the commander a run for his money as strong as he was.

'And he is smoking hot, as well. Get yourself some nice clothes to finally make you look like a women and you have yourself a catch there,' Suzumebachi decided to add from within her mind.

'Shut up you! Nothing is wrong with my clothes. Now be gone!'

She shook her head which made Shiro give her a questioning look.

"What!" she hissed coldly.

Shiro put on his sadistic smirk before getting serious.

"You know you plague his mind right? There isn't a day that has gone past since Sōukyoku hill that he hasn't thought of you."

"Why are you telling me this?" She tried to hide the joy in her voice, but seemed to have failed seeing as Shiro's smirk was back.

"Because Queen, the King is a little dense in these situations. So don't make the mistake that midget noble and the redhead with the big boobs did and wait for him to confess. King is a being that responds to action and acts on impulse. Just look at his ten days of training in that perverted shop keepers underground training facility, the three days under Sōukyoku Hill for Bankai, the one month for his mask, and the three months to become ascend from the level of a Shinigami."

Soi Fon looked at Shiro and gave him a warm smile.

"Pff! Don't look at me like that bitch. I only like you because you make it sunny hear and I hate the rain. Besides, its time to go. The battle is almost over."

"What? How do you kn-"

A massive explosion came from about 500 yards away from them, and Ichigo appeared in front of the pair. He was carrying Zangetsu, who had reverted back into his regular old man state, over his shoulder. Ichigo threw him to the floor.

"I'm sorry old man that I sealed you away and for making it rain here, but it had to be done as no one else could stop Aizen except me."

Zangetsu smiled at the young man. "I never hated you. I just needed you to prove to me that you wanted my powers once again and you passed as always."

"Yeah, thanks old man. Perhaps next time try not to kill me."

Zangetsu shrugged.

"Hmm, maybe. It seems to work. Just ask the forth Espada. However it is time for you to go."

A bright light took over both of the Shinigami's eyes and they were gone. Zangetsu looked up.

"It looks like it will finally stop raining here."

"Yeah, I agree with you there. She will be a good influence on him. I can feel and see him getting stronger with the new techniques we have been working on."

"Indeed."


As the two awoke they found Kisuke staring at them.

"Well I must say Kurosaki-san, you gave us quite a scare when your spiritual pressure disappeared. Although, now it seems you have a lot more than when you beat Aizen. How come?"

"I honestly don't know Hat 'N' Clog's."

"Well maybe in time you will. Anyway, I must be leaving. Stay safe Ichigo, Soi Fon."

Soi Fon glared at the former captain before looking at Ichigo who was smiling at her.

"What is it?"

"Thank you Soi, but what happens now? I mean, do you have to go back now that I have my powers back."

He tried to hold back his sadness, but Soi Fon picked up on it straight away. She walked over to the orange haired Shinigami.

"Soi, what are you do-"

He was silenced by her lips hitting his. He resisted at first, but eventually moulded himself into the kiss. A massive electrical current flowed through his body. He had never felt like this. It was amazing! His head felt as if it was on fire. As Soi pulled away from him she smiled at him.

"I'm not going anywhere until we are both ready."

"Thank you."

"So what are we going to do now?"

"Well I don't know about you, but I need a shower so you can come back to my house, if you want."

"Sounds like fun."

The pair thanked Urahara, which was a kick in the back and an elbow to the face for his perverted comment, and then headed down the street. Having a girl holding onto his arm as they walked was a completely new experience for Ichigo. Whether he liked it or not he loved this girl and nothing would stop him and he knew that she felt the same.

"Hey Ichigo what's your family like?"

Ichigo paled at the question. He had forgotten one thing that might put Soi Fon off him. Isshin Kurosaki.
