America: OH MY GOD!

Hydro: What?

Altena: You updated.

Hydro: Oh, yeah.

Sarge: Dumb ass.

Miki: Hey! Don't be mean to Morgan!

America: Ha. Ha. Run.

Hydro: At least I'm loved. But yeah, we should run.

Altena: I'm going to stay and watch.

Miki: Where are you guys goin- Oh. *Everyone runs away besides Altena, Miki, and Sarge.*

Sarge: *Cracks knuckles.* Time to die.

"Old-man Zangetsu, how are you alive?" Ichigo asked.

"Your Hollow saved me," Zangetsu said firmly.

"But, why am I a Hollow outside? You're still here I don't understand."

"King, you aren't getting the big picture, are you," Ichigo's Hollow budded into the conversation.

"What am I missing? Somehow I die, become a Vasto Lorde, then everyone is thrown into jail because I failed at protecting them." Ichigo stood looking at his two counter parts that inhabited his body, his mind, his soul. One was transparent, while the other was not.

"Your Hollow pulled as much Shinigami power from my other form as he could. That is how I'm still here. Essentially, he and I are one so neither of us really die," Zangetsu spoke.

"Right now we don't share anything with each other. Whoever is the strongest gives you your abilities. As of why you're a Hollow right now. I'm simply not taking control," the white version of Ichigo said.

"That would explain why your attacking me. Also why is the sky red and the buildings all black?"

"Because this is my world King, the opposite of yours. This is only shown because you obtained my powers. You are no longer a Shinigami."

"You are a Hollow," Zangetsu said. "Slowly, but surely I will disappear. I'm already weak as it is as you have noticed from my current form. If you wish for me to stay and continue being your Zanpakutō, then." Zangetsu stopped speaking and looked into the direction of the Hollow.

"Then you would have to join together with the Hollow," Ichigo finished his uncompleted sentence.

"And do you know what will happen? What that means?" Zangetsu asked him.

"I'd become an Arrancar."

"Yes, correct King! You're less dense than I thought you were!" Ichigo's Hollow laughed in amusement, but suddenly stopped and looked serious. "If I join back with Zangetsu, you'll have to get used to our powers. But, to be able to do this, you have to know our powers way before we join, because when we merge to form one entity again, we can combine powers."

"We won't become one person entirely, more like how my other self was when the Hollow and he combined. We'll still be able to split. It'll be like going back to normal," Zangetsu explained.

"Except for the hole in your chest or somewhere."

"But, wait. Hollows don't have feelings and all they know is to kill, why am I still able to retain my feelings, my memories even?" Ichigo asked.

"You're special. Well that and we let you since you need to save everyone."

"We're going to train you Ichigo. Now say it," Zangetsu said.

"I need to get stronger!" Ichigo shouted.

"That's more like it." Zangetsu smiled and looked at the Hollow and from his transparent sunglasses you could see his eyes. His eyes motioned the Hollow to Ichigo's form. The Hollow sighed.

"King, the only reason I'm letting you take control is because I'm ready to become partners with you. So yeah, but we will have the occasional sparing." The Hollow smirked and stuck his arm outwards himself his pale hand facing Ichigo. "Partners?"

"Partners," Ichigo said and grabbed hold of his opposite self and shook it.

Hydro: Damn you writers block!

America: At least you wrote stuff.

Hydro: True, oh poor Miki.

America: May her soul rest in peace.
