The Sunset of Hope

by Neko4DKawaii-desu

The Soul King is dead, but all hope was not lost. The Shinigamis believed in him. He had their trust. What would happen though, if that one last ray of hope also slipped and fell right away from their hands? What if whom they believed in all this time turn out something more underneath? Would their twilight fade away? Quincy Ichigo, IchiXBambiXMeni AU

4. Ch4 The Edge

Heya guys! Two chapters in one day! Confetti for me and a shoulder pat.

Just one question to you guys for future references.

Would it be ok if I use my own bankai idea for Urahara than the one already in the manga? I mean the bankai is pretty awesome in canon if you ask me but hey, I got an awesome bankai already out for him and it goes perfectly with my fic. So what do you guys say? Leave a review for that or Pm me. Thanks.

On with the fic.

Disclaimer: I don't own Bleach. But I promise one day I'll make my own manga!

Chapter 4: The Edge

"Wahrwelt." Yhwach started.

"This will be the name of our new home my brethren. The one true cornerstone of the world. This castle shall become the symbol of our future and so shall its name be that."

And a new sun shone over the castle and down on the new world that he created. A peaceful sensation fell all over the place.

"Then I shall make sure that no intruders may destroy this peace, so that this immaculate world may not be dirtied by their blood." Ichigo said.

"And I shall make sure to kill every last one of the intruders, so that you will not need to soil your eyes on the likes of them." Jugram followed. "For this is the cornerstone of the new world."

And every last Quincy silently nodded to it and knelt in front of their one true king.

In a different part of the once called Soul King realm, a slight disturbance is seen in the midst of the calmness. A small crack in the air, like chiseling through a wall, appeared near a small nail in the ground. It gave way to a huge tear and out came Yoruichi.

Grimmjoww and Nel stepped out, followed by Orihime and Chad. What they saw, shocked them to the core.

"What is this place?!" Chad asked.

"Are you sure this is the right place Yoruichi-san?" Orihime enquired.

Yoruichi gritted her teeth and looked around the new streets and buildings that had emerged.

"We're all in the same place of the Soul King palace except that Yhwach!" she started, "He rebuilt the whole palace to his liking."

Yoruichi turned to the two awaiting passengers in the tear and asked, "Would you guys not come?"

"I think I'm gonna stay." Yukio replied with a drawl.

"What are you saying?!" Riruka said and hit him in the head. Yukio clutched his head and glared at her. Riruka continued, "We've gotta help them. If not we're all doomed!"

"I think you're doomed, I'm gonna live inside my dimension and live out my life." Yukio said.

"Can you believe this guy?!" Riruka said exasperatingly.

"Ok, both of you now listen!" Yoruichi started, "We might need a quick way back if things get worse and only you guys are capable of transporting us. So Riruka and Yukio, you both stay here and look out for our signal." Picking up the nail she said.

"I'll use this as a beacon for you guys. Lock on to it and come to us whenever you feel a huge reiatsu build-up. You understand?"

Riruka and Yukio nodded. Yoruichi looked at Riruka and said, "We'll get answers and please look after each other ok."

"Yeah, ok Yoruichi." Riruka nodded with a huff and pout. Yoruichi smiled and turned towards her rag-tag group who were already ahead of her. She shunpo'd to them and everyone started to walk the new streets never knowing that two figures emerged from the shadows and leered over Yukio and Riruka.

In yet another location of the new so-called Quincy realm, a door made explicitly of reishi formed. Towering the street ends, it slowly slid open and out came Kurotsuchi Mayuri with his lieutenant Nemu.

He snickered a bit and said, "We'll close the doors once, and when we shift a little, forget about going to the Soul King palace, moving on our own would be such an easy task. They've probably noticed by now that I'm not there. Oh, they must be in such chaos. But nevertheless, I think I'll let them go crazy over this matter as much as they want."

"Who's going crazy over whom now?" a gruff voice interrupted.

"I think I spoke too soon."

"Tch, what a jackass."

"What the heck are you doing here Zaraki?"

"Shut your trap, I'm having this debate about whether or not I should just chop you up and leave you out here." Zaraki Kenpachi replied. He came up from behind followed by Ikkaku and Yumichika.

"Kurotsuchi-taichou is here?" Yumichika wondered.

"In this travel I hope you would shut your mouth and let me have a quiet walk around this place. There's so many things to learn about here I might reconsider dissecting you later when you die. So come Nemu. Let's be on our way." Saying so Mayuri kept walking.

"Tch, as much as I hate it. I think I'm gonna settle with following you for the heck of it." Zaraki replied and he started walking too, followed by Ikkaku and Yumichika.

xElsewherex

"Hmmm. Mayuri is not with us and Zaraki is gone too. I guess it's only us here now." Kyouraku said turning around and looking at his group that consisted of Shinji, Momo, Hisagi, Nanao, Urahara, Byakuya, Rukia and Renji.

"Eh, Lisa and Hachi are gone too." Shinji said looking around him. "Hiyori-chan left!" saying that he smiled broadly.

"The Quincy's are gone too." Rukia said. "They could've at least told us about the place now that I see it. It has changed so much since the last time I was here. Those damn Quincies did this didn't they! I'll freeze them all inside out."

Kyouraku continued, "It's no big deal. Let's get moving everyone. Remember the plan. Try to stick together as much as you can, do not separate." And with that they all started their run to the Soul King palace that they once knew.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxlinebreakxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Three figures looked out into the distant palace of their once King. A silent wind swept by them.

"It might be a little tough to navigate through, now that the town's changed." Liltotto said. "But it looks like we've made it pretty close to them."

The words were said in such a way that it was pretty clear that the love they once had for their King was gone. Instead a fleeting sense of rage and betrayal filled their hearts. The respect they once gave to him was now nothing but shallow. A simple reminder of the fact that they were wrong in believing in him.

"Yeah…" Bazz drawled, "We'll put an end to this though. On our own. Both Yhwach and, for what it's worth, Haschwalth too."

Liltotto nodded along with Giselle who kept gazing out into the scenery.

"I see that you have arrived here with a plan."

Bazz and the other two quickly jerked back and turned around at that voice. A thin line of sweat rolled down their foreheads and they gritted their teeth.

"You!" they growled.

The shadows receded to reveal a hooded figure who slowly trudged forward saying, "I have missed your faces for quite a while now. Why? Are you afraid?"

"Don't even think we're scared, shithead!" Bazz replied with rage.

"Oh of course not. It is very condescending is it not?"

"So you're still alive." This time it was Liltotto who asked with apprehension.

"Why won't I be? I am his Majesty's creation. One of the Schutzstaffel. Why won't I be alive? Did you assume me dead? My oh my, that is very condescending indeed."

Liltotto was scared. She knew this and she had reasons for this. The same reason was why Giselle now receded back behind her and only peeped at him. 'Damn it! We didn't take him into account in our plans.' She thought.

xxFlashbackxx

"My fellow brethrens," started Yhwach, "We have a new addition to our family."

The voice of their majesty calmed the encroaching debate among the Sternritters present in the room. The rumours of Ishida Uryu becoming his Majesty's heir was blasphemy, so many thought, but then the certain call of their majesty adding a new member to their army left many a silent mouth.

Yhwach forwarded his hand and a shadow slowly formed in front of him which rose in a slug rhythm. It slowly eroded form the top to give way to a hooded figure wearing the Quincy Overcoat with two buttons having the Quincy Zeichen. It slowly moved its head and looked at the people present in front of it. He then turned and knelt before Yhwach proclaiming, "Hail your Majesty!"

"My son, stand up." Yhwach said and the hooded figure stood up. Yhwach turned him and walked in front of the pedestal with him. He started, "Today, my brethren, I present to you. A new member to my Schutzstaffel."

The hooded figure looked at them but said nothing. He quietly trudged backward and stood behind Yhwach but still visible to the Sternritters present.

"Now on to another matter." Beckoning for someone, he motioned his left hand and in came Ishida Uryu walking in with stride. A cool and calm face with no worries. The newest member looked at him with interest but still didn't say a word. Putting his hand over Uryu's shoulder, Yhwach started, "My fellow brethrens. Today's a big day for I am going to announce an important notice. I have picked Ishida Uryu as my heir to the throne. That is all." Saying that Yhwach started to walk away when all the Sternritters started to create a whole new set of debacle. Although this was for only a moment since a huge spiritual pressure pounded upon everyone in the room. Many were face planted and others had difficulty keeping their thoughts straight.

'What the heck is this?!' a guy in a Mohican haircut thought.

'So much pain, so much pressure. Can't. think. Straight.' Thought a guy with a Chinese face.

'This is...' looking at his trembling hands, a guy with a mask of spikes thought, '…this is true fear.'

'What the heck?' thought one guy with wavy hair eccentrically combed backwards with a long hair strip hanging in front of his face. 'This is similar to what I've heard those Shinigamis do.'

"I think that would be enough there my son." Rang the voice of Yhwach through the silent hall. Everyone watched with abated breath at the hooded Quincy who looked at Yhwach for a moment and then slowly, as if getting out of a closed cubicle with just two breaths left, every Sternritter rose up as the pressure slowly dwindled off from them. The hooded Quincy only looked at them once and then he turned and walked straight to Haschwalth.

"You sure did something spectacular there Ichigo." Hachwalth said knowing that they were out of hearing range from everybody.

"They're chatter-patter made my ears hurt the moment I heard it grow. I had to do this. It was inevitable. I would advise them to keep their voice down around me." The hooded Quincy who was Ichigo said in a low voice.

"I sense you would not be welcomed today after that debacle. Would you be alright?"

"As if I need to worry myself around them."

"Well you never know they might surprise you."

"No one can surprise me more than I can surprise them. They will know and you too. You should do well of his Majesty's protection. You're his right hand."

"And I heard rumors of you being his left hand."

"Only he would say that. Rumors are just that. Rumors. They have no truth in them unless you see it with your own eyes. Ask his Majesty if you will. I've had enough of the re-education with the Gremmy brat. Reminds me of someone."

Haschwalth nodded and started walking away. "And listen…" Ichigo spoke out. "In this war, I hope you will be ready for what is to come. It might be too much for you." Saying that Ichigo walked away from him to the other side, leaving Haschwalth with something to think upon.

A few moments later Ichigo could be seen walking through the corridors of the Silbern (Silver-wrought Castle), a magnificent palace of his Majesty that he himself created in the midst of the Wandenreich (Invisible Empire). No Shinigami has ever even detected its presence even though it was so close to the Seireitei. This went to show how lackluster the Gotei have become. Having a false sense of security. No wonder Aizen got away with whatever he did. The betrayal. Everything. Even the old man, the Soutaichou Shigekuni Genryuusei Yamamoto, who was said to be the strongest Shinigami of the Seireitei, fell before a meager illusion using Shinigami like Aizen. At the end he had to use him. A boy no older than 17, to help them stop this megalomaniac who was hell bent on destroying and killing the Soul King. It was rich. It was totally hilarious to be thinking about it now. Now that he was where he belonged. A place where he had brothers and sisters. But still, there was a lot more to Ichigo than anyone in here knew. A lot more.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxlinebreakxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Moments past, as he walked on, he leaned his head to the left to dodge a Heilig Pfeil. The Pfeil embedded itself in the walls and destroyed a portion of it. "That is a part of his Majesty's fabulous creation and you destroyed it." He said without turning.

"Tch, what's in it for ya nameless." He heard someone say. He turned and saw over a dozen Sternritters leering at him. He just simply looked at them and said nothing.

"What? Cat got your tongue? I know you must be thinking why are there so many of us here just looking at ya." A guy with the Mohican haircut said.

"I don't think you can read my mind, so please refrain from saying anything that I might be or might not be thinking." Ichigo interrupted.

"Shut the fuck up! Nobody cares.! You just face planted us into the ground with something we heard only the Shinigami can do! So sorry if we don't believe you nameless!"

"Apology accepted."

The guy disappeared and reappeared in front of him with his crossbow aimed in his heart. "You don't wanna play games with me."

"In warring times, no time is for fun and games so I insist if you do not want to die here, you will back off. I think there is a specific rule by his Majesty that Sternritters would not fight each other. Would you dare disobey his Majesty?"

"What? Chicken out?"

"Unlike that Chicken brain of yours I have a mind that is urging me to oblige to everything his Majesty's wishes."

"So you're basically a lapdog."

"Are you not?"

"Did you just admit being a lapdog?"

"No I just rhetorically asked the question back to you because this is my first day here obeying him whereas you must've been obeying his rules since you were born. So forgive me if I'm mistaken for who is the lapdog here."

"You jerkass!" the guy shot his crossbow only for Ichigo to turn aside to dodge the Heilig Pfeil he shot. He caught his right hand and threw him across the corridor, breaking through a pillar and falling in a heap. At that moment, hell broke loose. A plethora of Heilig Pfeils sailed through the air to which he created a Heilig Bogen (Holy Bow) of his own and whispered, "Licht Regen (Light Rain)." A shower of small Pfeils of reishi collided with the oncoming Heilig Pfeils and exploded in a grand display of reishi fireworks. Then a punch came in from Ichigo's right which he dodged and kicked the guy who threw the punch.

He saw the guy was of a wrestling build, wearing a customized version of the Quincy uniform. He wore a mask in his head that had a star in the middle and also had a small pimp sized fellow in his shoulders cheering him on. "This is justice from the enforcer Mask de Masculine!" he heard him say and saw him heading towards himself with a punch. Ichigo covered his right hand with reishi and also lashed out with a punch. Both of their fists collided with a boom and shockwaves emerged.

Ichigo disappeared from the now named Mask and appeared behind him with his finger infront of him.

"Null (Zero)." Ichigo whispered and a concentrated beam of blue reishi hit Mask in the back and sent him falling down into the chasms below. Then Ichigo saw three males appear. One with an oversized goggles with crazy hair, another with a Chinese type of face, and the last looked unreal for a human with tendrils emerging from underneath and a mini machine gun in place of his right hand.

The first one dove towards him to which he knee'd him in the stomach, the other with the machine gun, Ichigo punched him through his face, breaking his mask and flinging both the former and latter through the walls. The next he tried to punch him through too but his hand was stopped with a clang. He saw that he had hit something solid, steel for reasons.

"I am Sternritter I for 'The Iron', Cang Du. You cannot beat me." He said to him.

"We'll see about that."

Making a fist filled with reishi and vein like lines covering his hand, he appeared in front of Cang and drove his hand to his chest. Cang's eyes widened as he fell his chest being torn apart and he went through a wall too. 'That was a Blut Arterie (Blood Artery) enhanced punch.' Was all Cang could think about.

"He is too powerful." Said a little female Sternritter.

"Yes he is I guess." Said another girl.

"In this case we have to use our Vollstӓndig (Complete Holy Form)."

"Would you be able to defeat me with your power huh?" a female with a black hair having violet strips asked Ichigo appearing before him. Ichigo didn't reply and just punched her in the gut, sending her flying too. Right after, Ichigo was hit with a supersonic roar. He was sent through a wall from which he emerged a little shaken. As the ape like man who emerged and appeared to use his technique again, Ichigo shut him up with a left hook to his face knocking him out. He then turned and saw a huge guy with a spear like Pfeil trying to spear him. He dodged his attack and punched right through his face in the middle. He was knocked out too.

As Ichigo turned, he had his hands full with another two Quincies who were twins. They both were trying to do something but it looked as if they couldn't.

"Why can't we copy you!" one of the twins asked.

"Because you're weak!" Ichigo replied, kicking one of the twins away.

"That's impossible, we can even copy his Majesty even though the power is very low. That is what our schrifts do!"

"Tch, then get a life copycat!" saying that Ichigo punched the twin in the face and sent him flying away. Just then, a Heilig Pfeil came flying in along with the sound of,

"Burner Finger 2!"

A long flame-like whip came soaring at him. Ichigo twisted to the right and redirected the Pfeil with a Blut Vene (Still Blood Guise) enhanced punch and then dodged the flame whip with millimeters to touch. He found his coat being burned at the bottom when he steadied himself in the air by Hirenkyaku (Flying Screen Step) and also found his hand become a little numb. 'That was Electricity for sure.' he thought. He looked at the receding dust and saw the guy from the beginning looking at him with rage. Ichigo turned his head to the right and saw a girl who was responsible for the Pfeil.

xElsewherex

"Is Candice thick in the head?" A female Sternritter with dark brown hair said.

"She has always been like that." Another female with pink hair replied.

"I'm happy to see him fight though. He should teach those guys down there a lesson now. How dare they talk down at him?!"

"Bambi you're getting too emotional."

"Oh sorry Meni."

"Just don't blow up anything now."

A little distance away, a small boy with blonde hair wearing a customized hooded Quincy uniform watched the fight with a smile. 'You are so full of surprises Ichigo-san.'

A while later, the guy with the wavy hair came up close to them and said, "Ummm, is that allowed? I hope his Majesty doesn't punish the newbie for breaking one of the rules and where is Haschwalth for that matter."

He wasn't graced with a reply by the girls or the boy.

Still he kept on watching the debacle of a beat down happening. As he ran his gaze all over the damaged palace halls, he saw Haschwalth off to a corner. Smiling and watching the fight.

'He must be someone very special for Haschwalth to not be interfering.' He thought.

xBack to the fightx

"Galvano Blast!" "Heilig Pfeil."

And both the attacks cancelled each other out. Ichigo appeared in front of the female Sternritter Candice but he was forced to dodge a Burner Finger attack from the Mohican haircut guy.

"You little shit! I'm not a Chickenhead! I'm Sternritter H and my name is Bazz-B!"

Screaming that, Bazz dove in to punch Ichigo but he dodged to the right and kicked him in the face, making him sail through another wall. Then he leaned to the left and turned to face Candice to whom he just gave a punch and launched her across the hall. Right after that, Ichigo felt something like a mouth over his head. He simply turned and gave an uppercut to the little girl whose mouth was enlarged to eat him whole. She went sailing across the hall, through one of the pillars.

Suddenly, the temperature around the room started to rise and static was heard in a few moments. He turned to his back and saw Bazz and Candice having wings. One of flames and the other with a Lightning motif.

"You're dead nameless!" Bazz-B roared.

"I'll kill you, no matter what!" Candice growled.

Elsewhere someone were thinking, 'Vollstӓndig? That's overkill.'

Bazz pointed four of his fingers of his right hand in front of him and a huge blade of fire with an elongated crossguard formed around his hand.

Candice pointed her hand upwards and caused a huge column of electricity to surge around her. Concentrating that electricity around her arm, with some radiating from her eyes, she leaned forward.

Both of them dove towards Ichigo at the same time.

Everyone watched with ecstasy of what would be happening. Two Vollstӓndig enhanced techniques. They wanted to see this.

"Burner Finger 4!" "Electrocution!"

A huge pillar of fire and electricity erupted in the halls of the Silbern, destroying the ground and also damaging almost all the walls. The pillar reached the skies and it kept burning and increasing in radius. A mammoth destructive technique. Both Candice and Bazz panted and looked on towards the pillar of flames. Bazz kept his gaze firmly on the flames even if it hurt his eyes. He wanted to watch the defeated look of his opponent. The utter despair on his face as he lost.

But then, something happened. The flames in the middle, on the air, parted ways spirally. It slowly gave way to the figure that floated in the middle of the blazing thunderous inferno. Bazz and Candice's eyes, along with each and every Sternritters who were punched and kicked to Timbuktu, grew wider and they couldn't believe this spectacle.

Ichigo was fine and there was not a hint of scratch on his person. He gazed down at everyone while floating and then slowly took out his right arm. A strong and sensual voice whispered with fluency,

"Sklaverei (Slave)."

And right before everyone's eyes, the flames and thunder were all slowly being absorbed by Ichigo in his right hand. The flames spiraled into the midst of the hands of Ichigo and after a short while, there was no sight of any flames or any thunder. Only the sullen smell of burning was left in the air and Ichigo slowly floated down and stood in the ground with grace. His hood was still up and covering and thus no one could see his face. But everyone knew of what he was doing. He still-gazed upon Bazz and said,

"Bazz-B 'The Heat', Candice 'The Thunderbolt', Nanana 'The Underbelly', Loyd and Royd 'The Yourself', Cang Du 'The Iron', BG9 'The Knowledge', Liltotto 'The Gluttony', Mask 'The Superstar', Berenice 'The Question', Jerome 'The Roar' and Driscolli 'The Overkill'. You all are powerful Quincies. Worthy of a schrift from his Majesty."

He turned and continued, "But just because you are a Sternritter now, doesn't mean you can go about flaunting your powers to everyone. His Majesty specifically told you all of a rule that no Sternritter shall fight each other in a duel and yet here we are. You have disobeyed a rule of his Majesty and such blatant disregard for the rules will not make you powerful enough to fight against the Shinigamis. Today, as a member of the Benevolent Schutzstaffel, I shall leave you with this. Just because I'm a newbie does not make me weak." Looking at Bazz again, Ichigo pointed his left hand's index finger and whispered, "Null."

A thin blue reishi beam shot out at supersonic speeds and pierced the chest of Bazz. His eyes widened and he slowly fell to the ground.

"That attack was not aimed at the heart so you'll live. Let this be a warning to you Sternritter H." saying that, Ichigo disappeared from the damaged halls and after a few moments, the Grandmaster Jugram Haschwalth appeared in the scene.

"Soldats (Holy Soldiers), take the wounded to the Krakenstation (Medical Ward)." And the gas mask wearing Quincies slowly filled the halls and took all the wounded people away one by one.

"No excuses. I will be informing this to his Majesty and he shall take the next course of action. Now off to your quarters." saying that Haschwalth walked away from the remaining spectating Quincies leaving them to their thoughts of why no one was reprimanded like usual.

XxFlashback Endxx

They still remembered that beating they received and it was something they could never have their minds forget. Now, that Sternritter stood before them again, gazing upon them like a predator would a prey.

"I guess though, that I could introduce myself to you guys at last. Before you die of course. Someone to remember by in death." The Quincy started.

He then slowly started to unsheathe the sword in his right hip and as it appeared, Liltotto's eyes widened.

"That is…."

"Aaah, this." He smiled. "The Zanpakuto of Kurosaki Ichigo. Quite a weapon this thing is."

"He is…"

"The heck are you doing with his sword?" Bazz asked.

"Don't tell me…" Litotto started.

"Aaah, the special war power. The first in the list. Kurosaki Ichigo. I killed him you see, and these are my trophies. His Majesty gave me permission to take them."

"No way…" Liltotto whispered.

"Shut you trap nameless!"

"Not for long Bazz. Not for long. Come to think of it. You three are out of time too. So…." The Quincy got ready. "Here I come."

He disappeared in a white blur and tried bisecting Liltotto but was held back by Bazz-B trying to kick him from the side. He blocked the kicked and caught his leg and threw him to a distance. Then he saw Giselle shaking in a corner and then she summoned someone. It was Bambietta's corpse. She was very very pale unlike the dark skin the normal zombies of Giselle had. She had her right hand in a mangled heap and her tongue was lolling out with saliva dripping from it.

"You did not do this Giselle." He whispered with a dangerous glint. At that moment, Bazz-B dropped down upon him from above with a huge flame like drill twice his size.

"Burner Full Fingers!"

The Quincy looked at him with mirth and let the attack connect. A huge explosion of flames rocked the building they stood at, destroying almost whole of the building. Bazz-B kept his grin but his eyes widened as he slowly looked down into his chest through which there emerged a huge blade.

"Goodbye Bazz-B. Sternritter H. You were killed by Kurosaki ichigo." His eyes widened at that even more as he listened on with the final breath that was left in him. "The Sternritter ϵ." And with that Bazz's eyes glazed over and he fell to the destroyed grounds as the sword was yanked out of him.

The Quincy now Ichigo, turned to watch the two others trying to get away but as he tried to give chase, he was stopped by a huge explosions in his vicinity. He turned his head to the left and saw the corpse Bambietta looking at him with a dead expression.

"You're not real so you'll die." Ichigo whispered and slashed his sword sideways. "Getsuga Tenshou."

A huge explosion rocked the skies of the new world and Liltotto and Giselle didn't even turn, lest they be seen. But as they tried to run more, suddenly Heilig Pfeil pierced through the abdomen of Liltotto and another right through the head of Giselle. Both couldn't even make what of the situation and both of them fell to the grounds. Dead. The only thing that ran through their minds at that brief moment before dying was, 'We were outmatched and outmanned. Damn it. Curse you Yhwach.'

Oh how they didn't know that they wished more than they could've hoped for.

And as Ichigo sheathed his Zanpakuto, he thought; 'Now it's time to pay a little visit to the wisdom guy in the ground floor.' He looked at the horizon and made a Heilig Bogen and shot a Heilig Pfeil that exploded in a Zeichen.

'Now it all begins. The players are here.'

"Are you ready?" a voice from Ichigo's conscience called.

'Yes. Let's do this.' Ichigo thought back and he disappeared from the building leaving no trace of him there.

Author's Note: If you guys have any qualms about the fight scenes, please do not hesitate to say so. Fight scenes aren't usually my forte so to speak so I might not instill that much of an excitement as awesome fic writers like ChaosEmperorNex or dripley11 or Kdrevm or HaretaSora or SSJ3 Kyuubi Gohan for that matter. So any form of constructive and I insist, Constructive Criticism is welcome. Flames will be ignored as usual.

On the other hand we get to know about the schrift of Ichigo's. Yay! Awesome time!

I hope you enjoyed the chapter though.

As usual; Read & Review
