"Kagome!", Inuyasha shouted in surprise. So many questions ran through his head, the main one was why she was here and how did she get here. Using sonido he appeared next to Kagome momentarily startling her, she knew of his abilities, but she never got to see what he could until now.

"What the hell are you doing here?", he shouted at her grabbing her arm.

"I wanted to help!" , she argued back yanking her limb free in an angry huff.

"I swear if Kisuke Urarara is behind this I'm going to shove his hat down his damn throat!" Inuyasha said livid, he went off on a rant about how he was going to kill the shop keeper slowly and extremely painfully.

"It wasn't him, I went to Karakura and asked Yoruichi to teach me a few things and bring me here", Kagome explained to him, although it still didn't calm her arrancar husband down, just redirected his anger.

"Alright then I'll shove Urarara's hat down Yoruichi's throat!" , before Kagome could retort there was a sudden shift in the other nearby spiritual pressure. She didn't have to tell Inuyasha, because he had held his sword up with one hand, to block a strike for the sternritter they had ignored up to this point. Kagome stumbled back a bit from the shockwave.

"Nice try asshole", Inuyasha said holding him off like it was nothing. The Quincy glanced over at the girl next to the arrancar with the weird spirit energy coming from her, he determined that she was a possible threat and went to attack.

"So that girl is important to you", Cang Du remarked emotionlessly.

"Attack her again and I'll rip your spine out of your throat", that wasn't a threat it was a promise. He put more force into his blade and threw the iron clad Quincy back. Inuyasha stood in front of the woman he loved protectively, "Stand back Kagome". The dog eared arrancar fired a cero at his enemy trying to keep him away. He sensed Kagome moving further away behind him and sighed in relief that she decided to listen to him for once. His enemy had dodge the cero and tried to go around him to attack her.

"Oh no you don't!", he shouted cutting the Quincy off, that tried to run after Kagome. The two engaged in a one sided sword fight, mostly just Inuyasha trying to punch and hack away at the seemingly impenetrable sternritter.

"Your attacks are useless", Cang said without any expression.

"Sounds like something Ulquiorra would say", Inuyasha remarked to himself, suddenly the Quincy disappeared and Inuyasha already knew what he was up to, followed him with his sonido. Cang Du tried to catch up to that mysterious girl with the unknown power, but was caught off guard when Inuyasha appeared before him. He almost didn't feel anything as the arrancar swung his huge sword in a horizontal slash with all his strength, but instead of cutting him in half it dug into his iron skin and got stuck in his side much to Inuyasha's annoyance.

"Impressive feet, but you still can't cut through me", the sternritter tried to stab Inuyasha, but the arrancar grabbed his enemy's wrist with his free hand while still keeping his sword wedged into the enemy's armored flesh.

"Stale mate right", Cang said seeing as how they were both stuck; the Quincy couldn't stab him, while the arrancar had his sword stuck from trying to bifurcate him

"Not quite", Inuyasha threw back with a smirk.

"Don't move!" the sternritter turned his head to see the girl he tried to attack pointing an old fashioned bow and arrow at him, ready to fire. There didn't seem to be any danger to such a primitive weapon, it was almost laughable.

"Are you trying to mock the Quincy girl?" he asked more annoyed at the audacity then anything. Kagome looked absolutely serious that her weapon could do damage to him and without saying a word she fired her arrow at his head. The sternritter just tilted his head back letting the arrow soar past his face, "And after that you still miss, your skills are far behind ours, it's pathetic". Inuyasha started chuckling at the stupidity of his opponent causing Cang to ask what was so funny.

"You really are an idiot", the arrancar said with a knowing smirk, he knew exactly what was coming and couldn't wait to see the look on this guy's face.

"What?"

"My Kagome doesn't miss", suddenly the same arrow that she fired reappeared, now coming from a different direction to strike Cang Du dead center in his back. As he felt the arrow sink into his supposedly iron skin, he could also feel every drop of power he had leave him, everything that made him strong disappeared in a moment; his Voltstandig shattered into nothing, and his abilities as sternritter I the Iron vanished, leaving his body vulnerable again.

"Hello human", Inuyasha smiled at his now scared and powerless opponent. He gripped the sword still stuck in the human and continued his slash cutting the guy in half as easily as cutting through butter. Cang Du fell dead with a look of utter shock and confusion on his face.

Far off in the heart of the Sildurne palace the King of the Quincy awoken sensing something completely wrong, he felt Cang Du die, but he could care less about that. What truly disturbed him was that something had completely erased the fragment of his soul within the sternritter, meaning it could never return to him ever again, which in turn meant he couldn't absorb the strength from it, and that struck fear into him for just a moment.

Back at the battle as soon as Inuyasha was absolutely sure he was dead he ran over and hugged Kagome. "Seriously, why did you come here?" he asked her.

"I meant what I said, I wanted to help", She cupped the side of his face and looked him directly in his amber eyes. "Inuyasha you suffered alone for five hundred years in another world, you fought for a long time to be with me again, and so what kind of wife can't do the same". Kagome knew how dangerous it would be to come here in the middle of a huge battle, but she didn't care as long as she could fight alongside the man she loved.

"I promised to always be by your side Inuyasha, nothing's changed", Inuyasha had heard enough so he silenced her with a kiss. He knew he probably shouldn't get distracted like this with enemies all over the place, but he honestly didn't care.

"By the way how did you rob that guy of his powers?" he asked the question that had been on his mind since he saw it happen right before his eyes.

"I don't know, the same thing happened to them earlier. I think that's just what my spiritual power does to these Quincy people", she said looking down at her hand. Inuyasha tilted her chin up and kissed her again. He was filled with pride over how strong she had become in such a short time.

There moment was interrupted by a very large and familiar spiritual pressure approaching the city at astounding speed. A loud boom in the sky startled them enough to separate their lips and look up to see an explosion in the sky.

"I was wondering where the kid was", Inuyasha said with a smile, he easily recognized the spirit energy of the boy he spent seventeen months watching over. After he said that something crashed into the ground a few yards away from the couple. Kagome looked confused while Inuyasha chuckled at the look on her face as he walked over to the crash.

"Did you forget to put the brakes on as you came down Ichigo?", the substitute soul reaper Ichigo Kurosaki popped out of the rubble wearing what appeared to be his normal outfit covered in a white robe and striped turban. He also seemed to have one extra sword on his waste that Inuyasha didn't remember him having.

"I guess not", Ichigo was both happy and surprised to see the former espada was who he landed next to. Original he wanted to land in the center of sereite thinking that's where Juhabach would be, but lost control of his fall.


ELSEWHERE

The remaining members of squad four had managed to find a building in all the chaos that they could fortify and make into a place that they could heal any wounded soul reapers that Hallibel's fraccion, the Tres Beastias, were able to recover and bring. Currently they found themselves in a bad predicament, where the building was surrounded by the enemy Soldat and the three arrancar girls were out to retrieve more injured.

Stark carefully observed the situation from a distance with his sniper scope. He didn't plan on getting involved, after all they had prepared for this. Unlike the thirteen court guard squads, the arrancars came into this war fully prepared for every situation this time, and this was one thing they had a special individual ready for, a person that everyone was surprised to see survived the winter war.

Just before the Soldat could storm into the building several of the front line men were cut down by white clothed skull headed soldiers. A figure appeared before them guarding the only entrance into the structure that the medics and injured were in. He wore the same white clothes as the soldiers the only difference was that he had a bull skull shaped mask with the left horn missing and part of the left side broken and chipped away with some bandages hanging loosely around his head.

"You will not pass Quincy", Rudbornn Chelute said unsheathing his sword. The Soldat didn't seem to understand who or what this guy was and tried to attack only to be cut down by more of the arrancar's Calaveras.

"Perhaps I wasn't clear, when I said you will not pass I meant you will also die", he pointed his sword out before speaking again, "Grow, Arbol", the arrancar transformed into a tree like creature with branches coming from his back that began spawning more of his skull faced soldiers. The Quincies didn't get a chance to do anything as they were all cut down without mercy.

"Master Inuyasha ordered me to protect the wounded soul reapers, I won't allow any of you inside this building", the Calaveras formed a perimeter around said building killing any Soldat who got too close. Stark watched seeing that the situation was indeed taken care of, now all that was left was to make sure the other precautions were in place.


BACK TO INUYASHA

Inuyasha, Kagome and Ichigo found themselves surrounded by the enemy soldiers.

"Well this is a sticky situation", Inuyasha said, Kagome groaned and rolled her eyes by how corny that sounded coming from him. "How about I take half and you get the other half Ichigo".

"Fine by me", the boy said unsheathing both of his new Zanpakutos. In less than five minutes the two had mowed down all of the surrounding troops with ease. Before they could enjoy their victory or come up with a plan of action a beam of light appeared from the tower in the center of what was once the sereite. The leader of the Vandenreich spoke aloud specifically to Ichigo Kurosaki about how he could now invade the Soul King's palace all thanks to the soul reaper boy's efforts. Inuyasha listened, but he didn't understand or know what a Soul King, or an Oaken was, all he heard was that the boss planned on leaving and that made him chuckle out loud. As if Inuyasha planned on letting him get away.

"Whoa! Wait a second kid!" Inuyasha grabbed his shoulder preventing Ichigo from chasing after Juhabach.

"Let me go I have to stop that bastard from getting their!" Ichigo sounded a little worried by whatever was going on.

"Do you really think we arrancar's came in here without a plan?", Inuyasha asked, seeing the boy's confusion he further explained, "After we heard the enemy was able to slip away through the shadows the first time they attacked, we came up with a plan to prevent them from retreating, and now seems like a good time to activate it", Inuyasha sent a small cero into the air, it was followed by another far off coming from where Stark was, then one from Hallibel, then Neliel, and finally Grimmjow. Suddenly several dozen large gargantas opened up around the sereite and multiple Gillian heads popped out, there were hundreds of them and each fired their negacion beam into the barrier that protected the sereite. The result was the entire city being encompassed by one large negacion, keeping any one from coming in or trying to leave. Juhabach watched as his mode of going up to the soul palace was cut off and shattered to pieces, ruining whatever plan he had in place.

"See that", Inuyasha pointed at the new barrier, Ichigo stared in awe at what their hollow allies were able to accomplish. "That prevents them from running away, now we can finish them all off".

"This is amazing!" Kagome remarked in surprise.

"Thank Hallibel, she was smart enough to stash away a tone of Gillians after the war", Inuyasha turned over at Ichigo who was still looking over at where that pillar of light came from. "Go on ahead Ichigo we'll catch up", he told the boy, he seemed to have some vendetta to fight the leader, Inuyasha wanted to take him down too, but he needed to look after Kagome first and foremost.

"Thanks!" and with that the orange haired soul reaper was off.

"That was nice of you Inuyasha", Kagome said walking up behind him and brushing off some of the dust and debris from his white cape, she giggled to herself when she noticed that he had a white furry tail in his resurreccion. "So this is your sword release, I don't think you ever showed it to me", she took in his exposed chest, armored limbs and the mask fragment protecting the top of his head. "You kind of look like a sexy knight from a manga novel", Inuyasha blushed at her comment, he actually knew what a manga was since he worked as a high school gym teacher he had to get an over view from Kisuke and Yoruichi over what kids were into.

"Even after all these years you can still make me feel like my old self", he said with laugh remembering how awkward he was when it came to romantic things.


AT THE SILBURNE

Juhabach stormed through the halls in a rage, eventually making his way back to his throne to sit down gripping the arms of his seat until his knuckles turned white. It was ruined, all ruined, his entire plan to reach the Soul Palace while the barriers were temporarily opened was completely ruined. By the time they figured out what was trapping them within sereite and eliminate it his chance would be lost. These damned hollows had ruined everything.

"Order all sternritters and soldat, tell them to destroy every last one of these hollow scum!" he told Jugram Haschwald who bowed respectfully.

"It seems invading Hueco Mundo may have been a mistake your majesty", Uryu Ishida remarked dryly. He was met with silence and a glare from his King.

"Haschwald I have a separate assignment for you", everything was going wrong, not only was he denied access to the Soul King for now, but the fragments of his soul were being erased somehow. "I want you to find whoever killed Cang Du, find out how they were able to destroy his powers and schrift, and then eliminate whatever it is", he wasn't sure if it was a person or some weapon they possessed, either way it must be destroyed if he is to survive.

"As you wish your majesty", Haschwald spoke emotionlessly and left to carry out his mission.


There is quite a bit going on in this chapter isn't there, sorry it took a while to write.

Those new sternritters who were revealed in Bleach chapter 599 will not make an appearance in this story unless I figure a way to fit one or two of them in, which would be hard since I already planned this story out. On that note I had a fight planned where Kisuke and Mayuri worked together to fight against Askin Neklavar, but with his schrift finally being revealed it kind of threw me through a loop about what his power is so I might leave that fight out next chapter, might.

As too why the arrancars are kicking ass, well we were told that hollow spirit energy is poison to Quincy, so with all these powerful espada in the area unleashing their full powers it's slowly weakening the Quincies.

Inuyasha's next fight has been set up already. Next chapter I might reveal his Segunda Etapa. None of you will be able to guess what it is, hint it's a kind of throwback to the Inuyasha series.

Until next time, thanks for reading.
