Disclaimer:Sadly I don't own Bleach but if I did Hitsugaya would be the main character. Enjoy the chapter!

Last time…

There were at least a dozen Gillain and even more Adjuchas but leading them all were two Arrancars. The one was roughly the height of Ichigo with very pale skin and dull lavender eyes. He had long darker purple hair that was tied up. They both wore the white uniform most arrancar and Espada wear but his was a pair of pants that seemed very tight and a turtle neck white top. His hollow mask covered his entire chin and half his mouth, making it so part of his mouth was constantly frowning. He seemed calm and collected. His friend reminded Ichigo of Grimmjow; crazy and psychotic, he had large green eyes and black hair with a scar running from the right side of his chin to the left eye lid. He wore baggy white pants with no top. His partial hollow mask was on his upper lip with mask lead down so that it the arrancar looked as if he had fangs just outside his mouth.

With a swift movement of his arm the purple headed one pointed forward and the entire hollow group jumped into the streets of Seireitei beginning their attack.

Present

The sound of an alarm was heard echoing throughout Soul Society. Shinigami from all divisions were scrambling to fend off the masses of hollow, which suddenly appeared in the sky above their home. Chaos… was the best word to describe the current events. Everywhere black and white clothed men and women fought desperately and courageously, some achieving victory others falling in a splash of red. Captains and their vices struggled to give out orders among the battle, trying to form some sort of attack stagey but failing miserably.

From above the two Arrancars looked down upon the battle field with glee. Their master had sent them on an important mission, simple but important. "Show Seireitei our true strength, show them how easily they will fall." The Arrancar with the black hair and psychotic look about him laughed out hysterically when he saw young Shinigami women eaten by a hollow with the form of a snake. "Nama did you see that haha swallowed whole, she stood no chance!" said man merely grimaced at the barbaric hollow and looked away with a sneer. Nama's lavender eyes met with a set of fierce and enraged hazel pair.

Ichigo and Renji had been fighting endlessly with the heaps of hollows that descended upon their location. Not that defeating a few minor Gillain and Adjuchas toke much strength from the captain class fighters but the sheer numbers kept the pair occupied for quite some time. Eventually they able to clear their area but heard a thunderous laugh from above them. Hearing the comment the one arrancar made about a human life Ichigo immediately sprung into action.

"We have company Tearagon." Nama said with little to no interest in the two Shinigami who now stood before them.

"Well it seems we get to see a little action don't we Nama." Again the arrancar merely looked away to watch the raging war below them.

"My name is Tearagon and this here is Nama we are part of your old friend Grimmjow's faction. You must be the all famous Ichigo Kurosaki I have been itching to meet you!" the arrancar said and licked his lips in delight "It will be my pleasure to rip you to pieces and tear the meat from your bones."

That said the emerald eyed arrancar lifted his arm to reveal a bone sticking out from his elbow that extended to his shoulder. With an immense smirk he grabbed onto the bone and slowly ripped it out of his skin causing pools of blood to run down his limb. Once released Ichigo saw that the bone was crafted the way a normal katana would be except it curved slightly.

Ichigo's eyes widened with realization… that was no bone it was his sword. The arrancar laughed and slowly licked the blood of the weapon eyes trained on Ichigo the entire time.

"You gonna fight too Nama?" Tearagon asked his partner.

"No I would rather pay a visit to the medical division." This said the lavender eyed hollow slowly descended to the ground and began casually walking toward the fourth squad barracks.

"No you don't!" Ichigo shouted when he remembered that Hitsugaya was recuperating there….oh and all the other sick or hurt shinigami.

"I don't think so" in a split second Tearagon was before him and Ichigo had to quickly evade, in a flurry of black he maneuvered Zangetsu to defend the oncoming blow.

"Don't worry Ichigo I will take care of that one you concentrate on this crazy arse!" Renji said and shunpoed away.

Ichigo ground his teeth in irritation… he would just have to count on Renji….for now.

-H.T-H.T-H.T-

Hazy…everything was hazy. He was immersed deep, deep inside a layer of thick fog. His body ached, his head pounded and a constant wave of heat assaulted him. So heavy…he couldn't open his eyes, too heavy. In the distance he heard the alarm sound and the cries of many people soon followed. Spiritual pressure, he could sense it flaring up everywhere but whose was it? It didn't matter…the fog become denser and darker enclosing around him but then it happened one reitsu stood out. In the dark fog it shinned brightly. It was the reitsu of the person who had saved him from his past.

"Kuro..sa…ki." He coughed out and ever so slowly the tenth division captain opened his eyes.

The world was blurry for the first few seconds of the young prodigies awakening. Suddenly it all came to him in one gigantic wave. Hollows, the shinigami fighting; him in the forth division; Ichigo against one of the highest powers and the other moving towards them.

Slowly the captain maneuvered to sit on his stark white bed. He looked no healthier than before. His pale skin seemed to match the covers of the bed yet his cheeks were noticeably dusted pink. His shoulders sagged and his beautiful teal eyes were glazed over with fatigue.

He felt like crap to put it simply. Shaking his head the small captain gradually stood up. The first attempt was a fail as the world tipped 40 degrees and the small captain fell back down. Taking in a deep breath he rose again and moved out the door.

4th division members were running around like headless chickens. All the rooms Hitsugaya could see were crowded and division members kept carrying in shinigami injured from the battle outside. He saw a small black hair body (Hanatarō) frantically trying to heal the wounds of a man who had wide gashes in his sides and a bandaged covering his eyes. The man began to cough and blood spewed from his mouth he then went completely silent, his head tilting to the side. The black hair boy shook his head and lowered his arms in defeat.

Feeling the presence of someone behind him Hanatarō turned and saw the young white hair taichou.

"Captain Hitsugaya!" The young healer exclaimed "You need to get back to bed!"

"What's going on outside!" Hitsugaya demanded in the most threatening voice he could muster while trying to conceal a few coughs.

"Ahhh..well you see a large mass of hollows just suddenly appeared and started to attack." Yamada stuttered

"Very well I need my sword where is it?" Hitsugaya said

"I… am sorry…. sir but Unohana… ta…ichou has ordered you stay in bed." The black hair boy replied.

Hitsugaya's eyes narrowed and his spiritual pressure began to blaze like a blanket of snow around him.

"Right now Yamada Hanatarō… there is a arrancar heading straight towards this barracks" Toushiro slowly moved towards the younger boy and grabbed him by the collar "all the captains are currently engaged in combat and your division obviously cannot handle an attack at the moment!" he pointed to the man you died moments ago, "So I ask you again were is Hyourinmaru?"

-H.T-H.T-H.T-

From a pocket situated by his hip Nama slowly pulled out a pure white handkerchief and with a disgusted scoff he ran it down his blade. Turning the once pure cloth crimson red. Behind him the injured Renji lay sprawled out in the dust with a long cut running from his hip to his shoulder.

Nama continued strolling towards the division he had concluded was the medical station, as he watched the victims of attacks being carried here. When he finally walked through the main gates a group of Shinigami spotted him. They froze up at the very sight of him leading the lavender haired man to reason that this squad did not train to fight enemies. Shaking his head in obvious disapproval the arrancar slowly lifted his long European dueling sword a Rapier so that it pointed at a young terrified black headed girl, who had completely forgotten about the man she was trying to get into the squad.

"Your fight is with me leave the girl alone!" a voice said from above and Hitsugaya dropped down in front of the girl motioning for her to get moving.

Nama smiled at the sight of the boy. His master Aizen had spoken about him. The boy was very intellectual, over protective and powerful. Yet master also noted that his youth was his downfall. He remembered how he scoffed when lord Aizen said the boy was called a reincarnation of a heavenly guardian but now he could see why. Yes this boy was the was the very essence of the heavens and purity, snow white hair like the clouds and deep teal blue eyes resembling the sky that glowed with emotion and the youthful appearance, yes he could see why he would be called that. The arrancar did though with a smirk notice the dusted pink cheeks.

"I am Hitsugaya Toushiro captain of squad ten, I demand you leave immediately or I will have no choice but to make you!" The young boy said in a raspy voice.

The lavender haired man merely smiled and toke a deep bow "I am Nama Urjigi, of Grimmjow Jaegarjaquez faction the sexta espada. As you can see I recently had to fight impure filth so fighting one such as you will truly be an honor." The arrancar pointed to the prone form of Renji as he spoke.

"Abarai! Abarai can you hear me!"Hitsugaya shouted when he noticed the injured man.

Hitsugaya's eyes narrowed "How dare you! Sit upon the frozen heavens Hyourinmaru!" Toushiro shouted and a great ice dragon erupted from the tip of his sword. With an arch swing Hitsugaya sent the beast hurtling at Nama who just narrowly avoided being hit.

"Beautiful" Nama whispered as he landed on a nearby roof top. Another ice dragon was formed and sent towards him while Nama admired the beauty of the last and thus the Arrancar quickly used his already released Rapier to defend "limpiar, Los Rayos" a sudden bolt of lightning shot out of the blade and hit the ice dragon causing both attacks to be negated.

From where he stood Hitsugaya prepared himself to attack again but was suddenly assaulted with a wave of dizziness and was barely able to avoid Nama when he used flash step this resulted in Hitsugaya being cut along his left arm.

"Guncho Tsurara" Hitsugaya shouted and a wave of ice sickles was sent hurtling at Nama, said arrancar again used Iimpiar but horizontally destroying the ice but also creating a large dust cloud.

Toushiro in the mean time was able to get away and hide behind a wall in order to overcome the coughing fit that suddenly attacked him.

"Come out come out, tenth squad captain allow us to see what is more pure ice or lightning." Nama teased as he emerged from the dust cloud. Smiling because he sensed a small release of spiritual pressure that Hitsugaya was trying to hide he quickly used flash step to appear right next to the boy.

"My my this is no time to be resting limpiar, Los Rayos!" Nama shouted and a bolt of electricity was sent directly at the young captain who had not expected Nama to find him so quickly.

-H.T-H.T-H.T-

Not too far away Ichigo stood in full Bankai fighting of the manic. The fight had been levelled until Tearagon released his fighting type zampakuto; Ichigo was then dealt a hard blow that he was sure left him with a couple of bruised ribs.

Said orange head was getting up when he saw Hyourinmaru meaning Hitsugaya was engage in a battle. Worried that the young taichou would be harmed and impair his health Ichigo immediately switched to Bankai. He was thus wining when he saw a giant flash of lighting where he thought Hitsugaya to be. Leading Ichigo into a frantic and panicked state.

-H.T-H.T-H.T-

"Uhmmm I thought it would be more interesting." The arrancar sighed and began to turn away but was stopped when he felt an enormous wave of power come from behind him. Turning he was not met with a dead body but with two large ice wings glittering in the sun light.

In the nick of time Hitsugaya was able to summon Hyourinmaru's bankai and shield himself with his wings.

Nama jumped away enlarging the distance between the young boy and himself. Maybe this fight would be interesting yet.

"Hyōryū Senbi!" Hitsugaya commanded and swung his sword in a linear direction creating an overflowing ice from his blade in the form of a crescent. Nama was unable to block the attack in time resulting in his left arm freezing over.

Once more the young captain swayed he realized that although he was completely covered in ice he felt burning hot, the young prodigy too knew that this meant that he was becoming more ill and if the black spots dancing before his eyes were any indication he needed to end this fight fast.

Thus Hitsugaya called his final attack "Ryūsenka!" He pointed his sword straight and began to fly at Nama. The arrancar knew what was about to happen and thus lanced a counter attack "Tormenta, Los Rayos!"

The two flew straight at each other both armed to attack. Seconds felt like minutes but soon enough the two blades met in mid air and began to pass each other glowing bright with power. There was a blast of ice and surge of sparks followed by a wave of frost.

Ichigo, who had just arrived after knocking Tearagon through at least 6 building with Tensa Zangetsu hollow style, was just in time to see his secret crush plummeting to the earth with a large trail of blood following him.

"Hitsugaya!" Ichigo shouted and shunpoed to catch the boy.

Unfortunately in the last seconds of the attack Hitsugaya's Bankai dissolved due to his rapidly decreasing health. The part of the attack witch did form saved him from the lightning but not from Nama's blade as it cut him from left shoulder to left hip. Body already overused and exhausted Hitsugaya fell unconscious.

Nama too was injured but was still able to fight, he was about to attack Ichigo, who was desperately trying to get Hitsugaya to respond, when Ukitake and Kyōraku appeared defending the two.

"Ichigo please take Hitsugaya to your world. We cannot help him or keep him safe here now. Do not worry Renji is already in safe hands."Ukitake said as he knocked the arrancar into a building and turned towards the two.

"But what about the hollow!" Ichigo asked

"Do not worry we can handle a few minor hollow Ichigo now go!" Kyōraku stated and opened a portable to the human world, which Ichigo reluctantly dispread through with the sick and injured young captain.
