Real world:

Bradley was watching an Anime episode on demand when, suddenly his cell phone began to rang. He paused the episode wondering who could it be.

Bradley didn't have to wait for long, as soon as he saw the caller ID, his eyes went wide.

"It's Mr. Doe!" he cried in his mind. Bradley quickly picked the phone and said "Mr. Doe?"

"Bradley..." said Charles Doe's voice on the other end of the phone, he sounded so tired and scared.

"What happened?" asked Bradley, concern entering his voice "So much has happened, i don't know where to start." Charles began to say.

"Last night, Nancy brought not only Ichigo to our world, but another girl who can travel to the Bleach world." Charles.

"Yet another dream sider has come into our mist." Bradley muttered.
"Huh?" replied a confused Charles.

"Dream sider, it means a person who can travel to other worlds in their sleep. I made it up myself." Bradley explained.

"How come?" wondered Charles. "I needed to start calling ourselves something and I didn't like the word mutant." Bradley explained.

"That's nice Bradley, but I haven't finished yet." Charles said in a somewhat annoyed tone.

"Sorry." Bradley quickly said, before allowing Charles to continue with his story.

"Anyway, her name is Marina..and-" Charles began to say, but Bradley once again interrupted with. "Hey, I think I know her. She goes to my school."

What did I say about interrupting?" Charles repeated somewhat annoyed.

Bradley quickly became quiet as Charles started up his story again.

"Her name is Marina and she agreed to keep last nights events a secret. However after she left, Nancy dreamt herself into the Bleach world again. This time she brought back not one, but two dream siders."

Taking a deep breath Charles said "This is where it starts to get weird, the first one she brought back was our neighbor, Danny. Apparently he was the one who pulled Toshiro and Rangiku into our world."

"What?" Bradly replied.

"I Know, but believe when I say, it only gets weirder from here." Charles replied.

Pausing to take a breath, Charles said "One of the Dream siders, a little girl named Abby, apparently has been dead for six months!"

"WHAT!? HOW!?" was all an astonished Bradley could say.

"Believe me, I'm still trying to wrap my head around that one." Charles replied. "Needless to say, no one at my house got any sleep last night." he added.

"Wow, three new dream siders in one night." Bradley mused. "Just how many of us are there?" He added. "So what happened next?" Bradley wondered.

"Well, I took Nancy to her Bat Mitvizah practice, while I took Abby to the police station." Charles replied. "What did you tell them?" Bradley questioned. "I told them I found a lost girl wondering near my house, and she couldn't remember her name." Charles explained.

"How did you get Abby to go along with your story?" Bradley inquired. "And why did you pick amnesia as a cover story?" he added.

"We practiced it right after breakfast and on the to the temple and on the way to the police station." Charles explained. "Also I picked because usually people don't ask question when amnesia involved. As the police were questioning me, I suddenly got a call from the temple, Nancy had got a head that so painful, that it hurt to move."

"What? Is she okay?" Bradley asked, concerned.

Charles paused for a moment and Bradley knew something was wrong.

"Mr. Doe? What happened?" Bradely spoke, feeling a sense of dread.

Taking a deep breath, Charles said "She's frighted, but unharmed. She's scared to go to sleep now and I'm afraid for you and the others as well. I said to good-bye to Abby, and drove to the temple as soon as possible. Once I arrived, I took her to the car, but then she passed out in the parking lot and she dreamt she was in the Bleach world again."

At those words, Bradley had a suddenly feeling that whatever had frighted Nancy, happened in the Bleach world.

"Nancy met two people this time." Charles said as he continued with his story. "The first person met was yet another dream sider and the second person she met was... Gin."

Bradley felt all the color draining from his face at those words. "Did he..?" "No, Nancy says all he did to her was use a binding bakido on her. I woke her up just in time, though."

"Bradley there is something else, Nancy told that us was another girl named Polly who was there with her, sadly Nancy wasn't holding on to Polly when i woke her up and-"

"So she's trapped there!?" Bradley interrupted.

"Sadly, yes and it doesn't look like their is much we can do for her at the moment." Charles finished.

"Why don't I take sleeping pill and dream myself-?" Bradley began to say. But Charles interrupted with "Bradley, listen to me. first of all, none of us fully understand how this ability that you and Nancy share works, second of all, you're going up against Aizen. The man who always has a plan for everything. Third of all, even if he wasn't the smartest man in Bleach, he still is soul reaper with hundards of years of experience in the field, while you're just an average high school student. You can't just rush to rescue some without a plan, look how it turned Ichigo and his friends when went to rescue Orihime with out a plan."

Bradley thought over his words and realized one thing. "Damn, he's right." He thought to himself.

"What are we supposed to do? Let that girl die? Let her stay as a prisoner of Aizen's forever?" asked Bradley.

"No, but we need a plan." Charles countered. "Who in the Bleach can match Aizen's intelligent?" Charles questioned. "Kisuke Urahara?" Bradley replied.

"Exactly." Charles answered. "One of you kids needs to dream yourself where Urahara is and explain to him want's going on." he added.

"Are you sure that's good idea? I haven't forgotten that time when he made that serious lapse in judgement, when didn't tell Orihime that her life was in danger, made her feel worthless about herself and how he indirectly let her get captured." Bradley replied.

"However, we have something that neither, Aizen or Urahara doesn't have, the knowegle of what will happened next in their world." Charles said.

"So you're saying? We can outwit Aizen?" Bradley said surprised. "I thought you said that we shouldn't try to change the story." he added. "Well that was before an innocent girl is now trapped with Aizen and Gin." Charles retorted."I can live with a lot of things, but I can't live with the death of an innocent." he added.

"Tonight, we gather all of the known dream siders, tell Ichigo and Rukia the truth and we'll come up with a plan to not only rescue Toshiro and Rangiku and Polly, but stop Aizen." Charles said in a manner that would fit a rousing speech.

"I'll contact Marina, while you and Nancy contact Danny and Abby." Bradley said.

With that they ended the conversation, Bradley logged off his computer and hurried downstairs to his car. As Bradley drove off in his car, he began to recall something, that Marina said she would be going to a party tonight at the Wises place.


Bleach world:

In the palace of Las Noches, Polly was locked in a room. She had long given up demanding to be released. "How did I get myself into this mess?" she wondered to her as she looked at the ceresint moon in the night sky above.

Flashback: Polly couldn't believe what had happened.

First, she woke up in a strange place, then she met a weird girl who seemed have a lot knowledge about where they were, then, not only did Polly discover that they in a room full of corpses, but they had the misfortune of meeting the killer, who appeared to have super powers as he somehow paralyzed them. If that wasn't enough, the killer told them that he was going to fetch his partner. If what the girl had told her was right, the killer's partner was even more dangerous. Scary enough, but then the girl literally vanished right before her eyes.

Then they came. To her surprise, the creepy man's companion looked like a kind professor. Then he knelt down to her level and said "Are you alright? I'm sorry for the trouble my companion has put you through." Polly felt herself begin to relax at the man's gentle demeanor.

Then the man said "Now I need to ask you something, where is Rukia Kuchiki?"

"Who?" Polly wondered.

The man said "Excuse me, for a moment."

He then turned his companion and whispered "It appears that she doesn't know anything."

"Yes, I don't know anything. Now can you please let me go?" Polly pleaded. "I promise, I won't say anything." she added.

"I'm sorry, I can't do that. You see by stumbling on this place, you have nearly ruined my plans, plans that have taken centuries to form, plans that are starting to come together." the man explained. "You see that girl has someone that I need, so I'm afraid I'll have no choice, but to keep you here until she comes back for you." he added.

"Why would a little girl I'm never met risk her life to help me?" a skeptical Polly muttered, trying her best to hide her fear.

"Simple, because I plan it." the man replied, before knocking her out.

End Flashback:

When Polly awoke, she was in a white room filled nice looking furniture. If it weren't for the fact, that she had been captured, Polly might've thought that was in a hotel suite.

Okay, I've not only been kidnapped, but I've kidnapped been by a wealthy guy with too much time on his hands. Polly thought with a shutter. At that moment, she recalled something she heard from watching true crime shows. Master criminals are often very charming, because that's how manipulation works.

I'm not sure, if these people are professional criminals or not. Either way, I need to get out of here. She thought to herself as she started looking for a way out of the room. However, the window had bars over it and the front door was locked.

As Polly paused from her thoughts, she knew it was up to her to make an escape.

But how was she going to escape when she didn't even know where she was?


Real world:

As Polly was wondering how was she going to escape from Aizen's prison, Bradly was busy looking fellow dream sider, Marina.

"Come on where is the Wise place?" he thought to himself as he drove. To him clear his head, he stopped at a convenience store. He walked through the candy area, when he bumped into, Marina of all people.

"Oh wow, it's almost like the universe is making my life easier somehow." He thought to himself. Containing himself, Bradley asked "Marina, I thought you would be at the Wise place by now?"

"Sadly, my stupid GPS has lend my to the wrong address, several times. I came hear to clear my head before I destroyed the god damn thing." Marina explained.

"I knew it! Thank you Universe!" Bradley cried in his mind. Not wanting to make Marina angry, Bradley replied "I'm sorry to hear that. I feel your pain." "When technology don't work for me, I want to scream." he added. "Anyway, I was thinking about this strange event that happened to me a couple of days ago." Bradley began to say carefully, hoping that he wouldn't freak out Marina.

Marina froze. "No way he can't...Nah..it's couldn't be. That Mr. Doe said that there were only two people that had similar dreams." Marina thought to herself. "A couple of nights ago. I had a dream that I met my favorite characters." Bradley continued.

He paused for a moment, before bitterly adding "And I was so close to getting their autographs."

Marina felt herself began to relax, he just had a silly dream. "Oh, thank goodness." she said in her head.

"At least you a better dream, then I did." Marina remarked.

"What kind of dream did you have?" Bradley asked.

Marina thought over what to tell Bradley. "I can't tell him the truth, it's too unbelievable." one part of her mind said. "But he did tell about his dream,so it's only far that you tell him yours." another part of her mind countered. "But if you tell Bradley the truth, he'll just think you're crazy." the first part of her mind spoke up. "But you must tell Bradley something." the second part of her mind replied. After listening to both sides of her mind, Marina decided to tell Bradley the truth...a bit.

"A Nightmare." Marina replied. "How bad was it?" asked Bradley. "Let's just say it's not something I want to repeat again, any time soon." Marina explained.

Seeing an opportunity to reveal to Marina that he had a similar experience, Bradley said "Hey, do you want to see who I dreamt about?"

"Sure, why not." Marina answered. Bradley took out his cell phone, googled Bleach and showed Marina pictures of Ichigo, Rukia and Uryu. Marina felt her face so pale, as she quickly realized he somehow knew about what had happened to her.

"How did you know?" Marina demanded, her tone becoming very serious.

"Because, I went though something similar, twice and Mr. Doe told me." Bradley explained.

"Really, what happened?" Marina asked.

"Also, how do you know Mr. Doe?" she added.

"He and Nancy are my neighbors from down the road." Bradley began.

"But I became involved when I spotted Rukia heading inside their house one day. I recognized Rukia from my dream and Mr. Doe freaked out. I came clean about what happened to me in the Bleach world right away." Bradley finished.

"You're like me?" Marina wondered.

"Bingo." Bradley thought in his mind. "Yes, and I need to tell you something." he added. "There's a meeting of all of us, tonight at Mr. Doe's house."

"What for?" Marina inquired.

Bradley let out a worried sigh, unsure of how to tell Marina that her friend Polly, was not only one of them, but was being held captive be a dangerous psychopath.

"Did something happened to one of the Bleach people?" Marina questioned.

In spite of himself, Bradley let out a little laugh at Marina's incorrect use of vocabulary. Marina however, failed to understand what was so funny and asked "Are you making fun of me?"

Realizing his mistake, Bradley quickly stopped laughing and said "No! No! I'm sorry. I didn't mean to make fun of you. I just need to tell you that Polly is in danger."

At Polly's name, all traces of anger vanished form her face and were replaced with worry. "Don't tell that she's also one of us and that she's stuck in the Bleach world as well?" Marina asked, her voice becoming frightened at the thought.

"Wow, she caught to the idea pretty fast." Bradley thought to himself.

"Sadly, yes." Bradley said bluntly.

"If it's true, how did you hear about it?" Marina demanded.

"Mr. Doe told me and heard about from Nancy, his daughter." Bradley explained."You can hear more about Nancy's recount of what happened at the meeting tonight." he added.

"Well, why didn't he or Nancy save her? Hell why aren't you guys doing anything about it right now?" Marina retorted.

"Because she's in the hands of a bad guy who can control our senses!" Bradley screamed in frustration.

"What?" Marina whispered, feeling scared.

"This is hard for me too!" Bradley added. "I wanted to dream myself in Hueco Mundo and rescue her. But as Mr. Doe pointed out to me, charging into enemy territory without a rescue plan, is a very stupid idea." he finished.

"Then we need to come up with a plan." Marina argued.

"That's what the meeting's about, coming up with a plan to rescue Polly." Bradley explained.

"When does it start?" Marina demanded.

"Tonight." was all Bradley, but it was enough to convince Marina to abandon her plans to go the party.

"What time?" Marina asked.

"8:00 o'clock." Bradley replied.

At 8:00 o'clock that night, Nancy, Danny, Bradley, Marina, Ichigo, Rukia and Charles were sitting in the living room.

"As you all know, the four children in this room have somehow been gifted with strange power to travel to another worlds, specifically Ichigo's world, Soul Society and Hueco Mundo." Charles began to say.

"I understand it this is strange and confusing for everyone involved, but I'm afraid that I must be the bearer of news and it's time for me to tell you what I've should've told you when you were each brought to my world those few days ago." he added.

At his words, both Ichigo and Rukia's eyes narrowed as they said "What have you been keeping from us?"

"Please sit down, Ichigo and Rukia. This isn't going to be easy." Charles insisted as he took a deep breath, pausing before he said "Ichigo in our world, you, your friends, your family and your enemies are famous and not just famous but internationally famous."

"And just how are we famous?" a disbelieving Rukia wondered aloud.

Charles sighed as he pulled up some images on his I-phone and showed them to Ichigo and Rukia.

Ichigo and Rukia gasped at the pictures, the characters in the drawings looked exactly them! But what stood out to them even more was the logo of the English word 'Bleach'.

Ichigo clicked on it and the I-phone showed more information on the manga series. While Ichigo couldn't read English all that well, he had a pretty good idea of what the web page was talking about.

No! NO! This isn't possible! Ichigo thought to himself.

"I understand that this is hard to believe..." Charles started to say, but Ichigo jumped up and yelled "NO! YOU DON'T GET IT! AM I REAL! AM I ANYTHING!"

Meanwhile, Rukia's face became rapidly pale before she fainted.

"RUKIA!" Charles, Nancy, Danny, Bradley and Marina cried out at once. However before they could get to her, Ichigo caught her and screamed at the group. "Don't come any closer! Just stay away from us!"

"Ichigo, please." Nancy started to say, but Ichigo grabbed Rukia, cried her into the bathroom and locked the door.


Bet you didn't see that one coming? Anyway, I'm sorry, it's been so long.

I hope this chapter can make up for it.
