After arriving at a large indoor training area the two dragons walked over too a vacant area placed roughly in the middle of the room.
"Now check this out you guys," Jake said cockily,
"Dragon up!" the three shinigami watched on as fire consumed Jakes body, turning him into a large red dragon, he turned to look at the three of them expecting to see expressions of shock, instead...
"I think the real thing is less impressive" Ichigo said bluntly, Jake face faulted at this.
"What do you mean the real thing is less impressive?" he said, a bit offended.
"It means we've seen more impressive looking dragons kido" said Renji simply, glancing over slightly as Gramps changed into his dragon form as well.
"Well, now that you two are in your battle forms I think it is only fair that we return the favor, you should be able to see us in our spirt forms due to your association with magic, but there is always a chance you won't" he said as he pulled out a ducky pez container, looking at them they noticed that Rukia had pulled out a rabbit pez and Ichigo was now wrestling with Kon,
"Got it" he said triumphantly, pulling a small pill out of the toy lions mouth, at which point the toy went limp.
"Wait, what?" said Spud, confused as always
"These are fake souls that take over the fake body we use when we come to the human world" said Rukia, as she swallowed a pill from her pez container, the New yorkers watched in shock as upon swallowing the round pills the three of them seemed to split, suddenly coming out of their bodies dressed in black robes and swords with them, at least Renji and Rukia had swords, Ichigo seemed to have a large object wrapped in bandages on his back
"Yo what is that thing on your back?" asked Jake, slightly stunned from what he had just seen
"Hmm? Oh, thats Zangetsu" he answered uninterestedly
"Huh? What is a zangetsu?" asked Jake even more confused now
"Zangetsu is the name of Ichigo's zanpakto, or soul cutter," Rukia said, cutting in
"Um, okay," said Jake still rather confused noticing this, Renji spoke up
"Its simple see, all shinigami have got a zanpakto to send should to soul society with, they all have names and are sentient beings themselvs, and on top of that they are in fact an extension of their wielders souls," he explained, apparently going into some sort of lecture mode he had probably developed working with the lower ranked members of his division, walking over to a spot to the side of the room Renji unsheathed his sword and sat cross-legged with it in his lap.
"Um, I thought we were training here" said a puzzled Jake, as Ichigo and Rukia joined him.
"Well, we don't want to tear this place up none, so we're just going to commune with our zanpakto for now" Renji explained, Rukia and Ichigo giving him somewhat concerned glances, it was just starting to occur to them that Renji had been calm for much longer than he normally was, maybe he took some happy pills by mistake?
Jake shrugged off the strange behavior of the death gods and proceed to go through several exorcizes, with Spud and Trixi watching from the side, every now and then spud would attempt one of them and trixi would have to help him untangle himself, the were part way through Jake trying to do a stretch that required him to sit on his head when he noticed a low growling sound coming from where the shinigami were siting, glancing over to them he fell over upon discovering that Ichigo seemed to be enwreathed by black flames,
"Whoa whats with Ichigo?" he asked, concerned
"Huh?" grunted Renji, opening his eyes, he turned to look at his friend only to jump back in shock, which sense he was sitting just made him fall over,
"Oh, umm, Ichigo? Rukia, I think we got a problem here" he said bringing Rukia's attention to the situation,
"Ichigo! snap out of it!" she yelled shaking his shoulder, slowly the flames died away and Ichigo opened his eyes with a start, snapping his head up sharply.
"Um, what?" he asked confused, seeing his friends looking at him with concern
"Dude, what was that! you were all covered in black fire and growling and stuff!" shouted Spud.
"Oh, I, uh, just kinda got into an argument, sorry about that" Ichigo replied scratching the back of his head
"You sure about that?" asked Trixi, getting the impression that there was something he wasn't mentioning
"Ya totally" -HOLLOW! HOLLOW! "a loud shrieking sound interrupted him, immediately he turned to Rukia who was pulling a cell phone out of her robes
"Whats going on?" asked Jake, curisios about the sudden seriousness of the three,
"Its a hollow" replied Rukia,
"Whats that?" he asked, puzzled by the new term
"A corrupted soul that was not able to pass on, we purify them before they cause to much harm" she replied primly, starting to move quickly to the exit,
"Whoa, wait up for me" he said
"I'm coming too! Whatever this hollow thing is, it sounds like its some sort of problem, so its my job to take care of it"
"What are you talking about, you could get hurt!" Renji yelled back at him as they started to run towards their destination with Jake and gramps flying after them and Spud and Trixi not far behind.
"Protecting is my job, its no big!" Jake replied with confidence, if these guys could take it it would be a snap for him.
