Disclaimer: I do not own Bleach or Fruits Basket. Word of warning, I wrote all of this at school, so I may mess up a bit, since I don't concentrate well on things like this during school.

Also, I can't remember if it's this chapter or the next, but the beginning may be a bit messed up, since my teacher saw me writing and took it away from me. Yay. Well, onto the story before I ramble you all to death.


A lone man with brown hair and brown eyes sat, sipping tea calmly. A man with purple-silver hair walked in, his hands in his white Shihakusho.

"Aizen-sama?"

"Yes, Gin?" Aizen murmured.

"There seems to be an odd presence with Kurosaki and his group." Gin said, his fox-like smile only slightly faded with confusion.

"Odd how?" Aizen asked, setting his tea down.

"Odd like... How should I put this... There seems to be a Soul Reaper that we have never seen before. That Soul Reaper has an odd pattern of energy around him." Gin explained.

"Interesting... We should keep an eye on this Soul Reaper, don't you think, Gin?"

"Yes, Aizen-sama." Gin nodded as he walked out.

"It seems there is yet another we must recruit to our cause... He may be very useful indeed."


"A new Soul Reaper, eh? How strong is he, Ulqiourra?" A fierce looking man asked. He had blue hair and an odd mask fragment on his jaw.

"He seems to be pretty strong by my readings, Grimmjow." Ulqiourra responded.

"Really? Well then, seems I'll have some new prey to kill."

"All in good time, Grimmjow..." Ulqiourra said.

All in good time.


"Too relaxed in your guard, Kyo!" Rukia called out as Kyo's sword clashed against Zangetsu. Rakuen snickered.

"Cat fight." She pointed out with a smirk, too which Kyo and Ichigo both shouted, "Oh, shut up!"

Torishi sighed, not even paying attention anymore and drawing in the sand with a stick. Rakuen poked her.

"Pay attention, Tori-Tori!"

"I can't... I'm thinking. I have a bad feeling." Torishi said, sounding calm, but with a very slight, almost undetectable hint of nervousness.

"It's probably nothing. Sorry, Captain." Rakuen shrugged.

Meanwhile, Kyo and Ichigo were both just about evenly matched. They still couldn't land a blow on the other. Finally, Kyo's blade clattered on the ground, and both Ichigo and kyo stood panting.

"Good try, Kyo. Try communicating with your sword now." Rukia said.

"Right... And just how do I talk to metal?" Kyo asked.

"Just think in your mind, try to talk, as if you were thinking to yourself. You have to be determined for it to work. Either that, or we have to put your life in mortal danger." Rukia responded.

"I think I'll just be determined." Kyo deadpanned. He leaned against a tree, his eyes closed. It was silent for a tense moment. Kyo opened his eyes and shook his head.

"There's nothing to listen to." he announced.

At that moment, a couple of guys with mask fragments somewhere on their face walked out of a rift. Ichigo looked shocked for a second, then pure anger glimmered in his eyes as he looked at one of the guys.

"Grimmjow."

The blue haired man smiled in an almost sadistic way. "Hello, Ichigo." He said in a low growl.

The other man walked over to Rakuen and Torishi.

"Well well. It's the ice flea and the hollow flea. Have you learned your place yet? Are you ready to submit and die?"

Ichigo and Toshiro both seemed ticked off at the way the new arrival was talking to the girls, but Torishi and Rakuen didn't notice.

"You wish." Torishi growled.

"Arturo..." Rakuen started, her voice a deadly calm.

"You say we're fleas? Fine. But you're a blood sucking, low life, pathetic leech!"

Arturo's eyes burned with fury. "You damn flea!" he shouted as he shot foreword. Rakuen and Torishi both blocked at the same time, forming a large X.

"You're one to talk!" The both growled in unison before pushing Arturo's blade back.

Right as Ichigo and Toshiro were about to fight, Kyo gasped in pain. The blade of Panterra was clear through his stomach, pinning him to the tree as blood poured out thickly on the ground.

"Ulqiourra must be getting soft," Grimmjow laughed, "You're not strong in the slightest!"

Kyo growled through clenched teeth before everything went dark.


Kyo was standing in a mountainous area. A waterfall could be heard in the background, sounding so close yet no-where to be seen.

"Are you the one?" A soft, taunting voice murmured. Kyo spun around, but no one was to be seen.

"Who's there?!" Kyo called out.

"Everything you are... The power that will be..." It seemed as if two voices were speaking now, though one sounding dark and ominous, while the other sounded hopeful.

The ominous voice said something silently before fading, and the hopeful one seemed calmer now.

"Kyo, I'm glad I reached you." it murmured.

"I am Nekochi, your Zanpaku-to."


Well, there's chapter 4. Rakuen told me 'Chi' Meant blood, and I wasn't able to look it up, since I was grounded. Also, as I type this, I am sitting in the car while my dad is in the store. Thank god for laptops. Well, hopefully Nekochi is a good name for Kyo's zanpaku-to. I tried either way.
