Chapter 11. First off I want to tell you about my new story a Bleach and Princess Resurrection crossover called Shinigami Resurrection. If you haven't checked it out please do so.

Now I haven't got much feedback on the topic of Louise learning kido so I'm having her train with Ichigo. She will learn the basics in this chapter this doesn't mean she won't learn how to use void so no need to worry.

I asked this already but I think you misunderstood the question or I was vague. Do you think I should replace all the warfare stuff from canon with Soul Reaper stuff? Meaning the Zero fighter, Guns, and other weapons. Such things would do Ichigo no good he's faster than the jet and has more power than that canon thing they used to that dragon.

Now what world would be more impressive for Louise and the others to see? World of the living, Soul Society, Hueco Mundo , or Hell. And yes the Soul Society will cooperate with Tristain and others.

Ichigo had took Louise to the woods right outside the school to practice using kido and other forms of spirit based powers she was really excited. Ichigo had set up some dummies for them to practice on first he would teach her the basic kidos.

"Now Louise since it seems you favor offensive attacks first I'll teach you a Hado spell." Louise looked confused.

"I thought it was called Kido."

"Hado is the offensive form of Kido and the defensive form is called Bakudo."

"So your teaching me attacks first?"

"Yes but kido is very different from magic, Magic is your whole base of your defence and offence while kido is a handy tool for us. Many Soul Reapers don't even use it and still fight on the same level as the others."

"How?"

"As I've told you our main weapon is our zanpokuto which are more powerful than most kido. Anyway we're getting off track like I was saying kido uses Spirit energy from within our soul, now since your not a Soul Reaper I will have to teach you the basics as though you were." Ichigo held his hands in front of his chest and began pulling energy from within making a ball of energy the size of a bowling ball. " This is spirit energy the thing that fuels our attacks from kido to just swinging our swords."

"I see... so can we begin?" Louise asked with a determined look on her face.

"Kido is numbered by how powerful each is but this can also vary on how powerful the Soul Reaper is." Louise took in all he told her and was ready to start.

"Ok this is Hado number 1 Sho." Ichigo pointed his fingers at a wooden dummy and soon it went flying into the woods which impressed Louise that the first spell could send someone flying like a golem punched them. Louise couldn't wait to try it and stepped in front of Ichigo. "Now focus you energy into your wand from your soul." Ichigo showed her the way to channel her spirit energy from her soul into her wand it didn't take as long as he first thought. Soon Louise closed her eyes and did as he told her and started to focus her energy from within. But Ichigo noticed not only was she gathering spirit energy from her soul she was also gathering magic from around her and was chanting some words her never heard before. She then opened her eyes and shouted the name of the spell at the wooden dummy, but instead of being sent flying back like Ichigo's it was sent straight into the air then bursted into dust. They both just stood there and watched as the wind carried the dust away then Louise looked at Ichigo who was a little shocked to say the least.

"That was just a fluke don't worry I can do better."

"Really? I think that was good for a first try you didn't blow us up just the target, even though that spell wasn't meant to be lethal."

"Is that good or bad?"

"That depends on what your trying to do and if you want the target to survive then no it isn't." Louise was disappointed in herself for messing up and it showed on her face. "Don't worry you got the spell right but just used to much power. I nearly blew up the whole training ground my first try, I never heard the end of it from Renji who I sent flying into a giant boulder like he was one to talk." Ichigo reassured her which seemed to pick her up a bit. They kept trying and after about a hour Louise finally got the spell correct and pushed a tree from it's roots.

"I got right that time!" Louise cheered.

"Yea... let's keep this between us... if anyone asks we were fighting a golem." They ran out of dummies and started using boulders and trees let's just say the golem made less of a mess.

"Hee hee..." Louise was rubbing the back of her head while she looked at the mess.

"Well you used up a lot of your energy I think we should rest. Hmm didn't we need to meet Henrietta "

"Oh yes I need to change we have to meet the princess soon." Louise rushed to her dorm while Ichigo followed her wondering if she would remember that he could take bring her to the room in a flash. Soon she stopped and looked back at Ichigo. "You shouldn't call the Princess by her first name like that!"

"I thought I told you that I'm not one for titles heck I call the Head Captain Gramps and he is more or less in charge of the Soul Reapers."

Louise just stared at her Soul Reaper to think he had such a problem with authority even though he was suppose to be one of those Captains.

"Besides it's not like it means I have no respect for them the fact that I call them so friendly means I hold them above others."

Louise knew she wasn't going to win this Ichigo had the power and will to do what he wanted, still he treated everyone the same as though they were his equals. "I guess I can see what your saying but others might take offence at it."

"Let them take it the way they want, if their to stuck up to that then they can jump off a cliff for all I care."

Now Louise feared Ichigo meeting Eleonore those two will be at each other as soon as they meet which made her shiver at the thought.

Both Ichigo and Louise arrived and stood in front of the princess. She then got up and walked over to them with a smile on her face Louise bowed while Ichigo just stood there.

"Congratulations Louise Francoise." Said the Princess.

"Thank you but I'm not worthy of such a title as Chevalier."

"Oh but you do. You have put a end to a thief that has had the palace up in arms and you have my thanks too Ichigo. I hope you continue to keep my friend safe and out of trouble." She turned to him and lifted her hand.

Ichigo stared at her for a bit then realized what the jest meant. "Sorry not to be rude but... Kissing someone's hand is kind of old fashion."

"Oh I'm sorry did I offend you?" Henrietta asked worried not knowing the man's culture.

"No it would just be a little awkward for me."Plus it's kinda corny.

"I see... Is there anything else I can award you?"

"No but thank you for the offer."

The Princess frowned a little most would have asked for money, land, a castle, or all of the above. "Well... if there is anything you need please don't be shy."

"I'll be sure to remember that thanks. If that's all we'll be going now." Ichigo gave her a wave goodbye and started to walk towards the door. Which left the girls shocked mostly Louise. He talked to the Princess said his thoughts and was leaving as though this was a everyday thing. Henrietta on the other hand started to giggle." He is quite the familiar isn't he? Do you mind stopping him before he leaves? I need to ask the both of you a favor." Louise just looked at her friend. "Yes he is... I'll go get him." She ran after him before he left.

Louise soon brought him back all the while saying he should let people finish before he decides to leave. Once they came back the Princess asked if they could go into the village to see how the commoners view the nobles. And if their were any abusing their power after the problem with Count Mott. Of course Louise agreed and Ichigo knew he would have to keep a eye on her.

In squad 6 barracks Byakuya sat at his desk reading over what squad 12 had found.

"I wonder what has become of Sasaki. Could he still be alive?" Soon Renji walked in and broke Byakuya from his thoughts.

"Captain you wanted to see me?"

"Yes. I would like you to prepare to depart to this world that has taken Ichigo."

"But Captain didn't you say it be months before the pathway is ready?"

"It appears there is a another way to pass to this world, but it only shows up so often. We will be taken it."

"Your coming too Captain?"

"As well as Captain Komamura."

"Do we really need so many?"

"We do not know what's on the other side and now that a Vasto Lorde is there there could be no limit to the danger."

"I understand. What will we do if it's to much for us to handle?"

"Captain Kurotsuchi will equip us with items that will send back information on our situation threw the rift that those two left."

"And how will that help us at that moment?"

"It wouldn't but the next team they send will be more prepared. Byakuya said coldly."

"Well isn't that lovely?"

Louise and Ichigo had just left a clothing shop. Louise was complaining about the clothes being so bland then it was where they were going to sleep. Ichigo had forgotten Louise was a little rich kid but he hoped she would take it better. I mean even Byakuya and Soi Fang settle for sleeping on his floor the first night their evil clones tried to take over. But while he was think how bratty she was being Louise had went off on her own and when Ichigo found her she had lost all the money gambling.

"They said I would win more money." She said in a depressed tone.

"Well hopefully nowhere to sleep and no food will teach you how hard it is for the poor and common to live. Plus how important money is to people who aren't rich like you. Lucky I can go without food for a few days and I'm use to camping out." Louise looked up at him with worry on her face.

"So you saying I'm going to have to deal with this on my own!? You... won't help me?" She look like a abandon puppy.

"I never said that I just trying to teach you some values. Plus..."

"OH HOW CUTE!" They were both startled by a loud voice. Ichigo turned around and the sight was more frighting than Ulquiorra's released forms. It was a man with a goatee an big red lips he wore short shorts with a even smaller shirt revealing all his body hair. " Is that what happens when you fuse Charlotte with Dordoni!?"

"Don't worry I'm no one suspicious." He said in a french accent.

"Yes...you are." Ichigo muttered.

"I couldn't help but over hear your dilemma and I want to help you two cuties."

"You do?" Asked Ichigo

"Yes my name is Scarron and I own a lovely tavern up the street and I can board you there."

"Wait Ichigo..." Louise wanted to object but was cut off.

"H-o-w e-v-e-r I need you to do something for me." Ichigo and Louise just looked at each other.

They arrived at Scarron's inn called Fairy's Inn a maid cafe. Louise had made up a story about them being run aways from being sold to pay off their father's debts. Soon Scarron introduced them to the girls they ate up their story and squealed over how cute and handsome both Louise and Ichigo were. When Louise walked out in the maid uniform Ichigo had to use most his might not to laugh. The embarrassed look on her face went from cute to her looking constipated. He had to pity her but maybe this will be a good lesson for her.

"Hey new guy come help with the dishes!" A girl called to him.

"Be right there." Ichigo walked over to her.

"You got a real cute sister there and you don't look bad yourself."

"Yea we get it from our mother's side." Ichigo said while rolling up his sleeves."

"Those are some really weird clothes you got and they don't look cheap."

"There was a time these were pretty common where I come from but there are still plenty that dress this way."

"Really uh? So what's your name?"

"Ichigo."

"Odd clothes odd name. Where you from?"

"Can't say."

"Oh yea... sorry about that."

"Don't worry about it."

Louise was watching them she couldn't understand him taking this so well. She knew he held people in the the same regards but for her to be a maid and him a dish washer there had to be a limit. Heck he should be the one most upset being a powerful spirit degraded to doing house hold chores. And for some reason the girl being so chummy with him made her feel down, she didn't know why she wasn't dating Ichigo. But that brought up another thought even if she was how would her parents feel about it? Ichigo was no commoner in fact he would be above them if the other Soul Reapers were as powerful as him compared to the mages they would be the commoners. Plus she already had a fiancee but for some reason Ichigo made her feel much more safer not just his power but how he seemed to be a natural protector. So much was running through her mind until she was brought out of it by Scarron's announcement.

"Now that you met our new employees I'm happy to announce this year's tip contest!" All the girls began to squeal.

"What's a tip contest?" Asked Louise.

"The girl to earn the most tips will be awarded a big bonus plus..." Scarron pulled back some curtains to reveal a sparkling maid outfit. They will get to wear the maid uniform that inspired the name of our tavern the enchanted fairy bustier."

"That's wonderful Mi Mademoiselle!" All the girls shouted.

"The last girl who wore this was able to earn enough tips to move back home because of it's enchantment, so everyone do your best you too new girl!"

Louise stared at the outfit if she had that she would be able to earn back all the money she lost. Soon people started to enter the inn and Louise tried her best to serve them. But her noble pride got in the way and she started yelling at the more bolder customers pouring wine on them, beating them and so on. It was lucky Scarron was able to calm them down with his "Special service." Louise was starting to get depressed about not being able to get any tips.

While that was going on Ichigo was getting to know Jessica to his surprise was Scarron's daughter. She started to joke around a bit saying she may have to fight with her father for him because he was both their type. But he was soon getting a little nervous when she got more interrogative about him and Louise.

"Are you some kind of nobles?"

"What are you saying." Ichigo had gotten good at playing innocent.

"Well that "Sister" of yours doesn't even know how to hold a plate. And seeing how she holds herself high like that it makes one wonder."

"She's really sharp or Louise is being way to obvious."

"So tell me are you run away nobles or under some secret mission?"

Ichigo just got quiet and stared blankly at the dishes he was washing.

"Oh come on please tell me I'll make it worth your while." She said in a seductive manner while moving her hand on her breast.

Ichigo just ignored pretending she wasn't there. Which only made her more determined.

"Oh my don't tell me you prefer my father." That hit a nerve and Ichigo grabbed one of her cheeks and started to pull.

"I'm sorry I couldn't hear you your mumbling to much." He said coldly.

"Ow..ow.. em sorwy tis wa a juck ." Ichigo let go of her face and she held her sore cheek.

"That was mean! I hope you don't do that to a girl's breasts..." She stopped when he reached for the other cheek.

"Dear brother our shift is over and we're about to close up. Let's go get some rest for tomorrow." Louise had came up and was staring daggers at Jessica and both her and Ichigo went up to their room. Jessica just looked at them leave in amusement "Those two are so cute."

In their room they were getting ready to sleep Ichigo had lad out some bedding on the floor for himself and Louise took the bed.

"I don't understand how you can put with doing such demeaning things."

"Louise you really need to learn to do what you need to survive. If you were really poor the way you are now you wouldn't last a week."

"But..."

"Louise you do know the first nobles must have been commoners at one time right?"

"Wha..."

"The mages that developed and made spells rose to their ranks through their will and determination."

"Why do you think that?"

"That's how it happens most the time in any place. If being a noble means having power then every Soul Reaper would be one."

"Their not?"

"No in fact out of all the 13 Captains 2 are from noble families, the rest rose to the rank by their own power." Ichigo looked at Louise it seemed she didn't quite get it. "The nobles of my world are different from yours."

"Are you a noble?"

"Now that's hard to say. I'll tell you some other time it's to much detail to go into now." He said as he laid down on the floor.

After they laid down and turned out the light Louise started to look around the room. It was so dark and creepy the shadows moved and she noticed bats staring down at her.

"Umm... I-ichigo?"

"Yes."

"If it's not a bother could you lay beside me." Ichigo looked up at her and saw she was nervous about the unfamiliar room. So he got up and sat beside her and watched as she fell asleep.

The next night was busy and like the last Louise was still getting into the swing of things. By that she was swinging her fists at the customers. Scarron took her to the side and asked her to watch how the other girls did their job. Soon the doors opened and a group of men dressed in red walked in led by a short fat man dressed in green. Everyone went silent as they walked in and Scarron ran up to them.

"Oh if it isn't Lord Turenne."

"Well you seem to be doing well."

"Oh no today just been a good day, normally it's like a graveyard."

"I'm here as a customer."

"But were full at the moment."

"Oh I don't think so." His men held out the staffs and soon all the customers left. "Guess you were right about it being a graveyard. Ha ha!"

Ichigo already got annoyed with the man. "And who is he suppose to be?" Ichigo asked Jessica.

"That's Turenne a corrupt tax collector for the princess. If anyone tries to stand up to him they'll get a big tax put on their business so no one can afford to anger him."

"I see."

"He follows you all night long without even paying you a tip, so no girls are willing to serve him."

"Huh is that...?" Ichigo saw Louise walk up toward the fat noble. Both Ichigo and Jessica face palmed.

"A rich noble now is my chance!" Louise thought.

"Here you go Sir." Louise handed him a drink. He looked at her chest and frowned.

"Has this place started hiring men now."

"Huh..." Louise veins started to pop.

"Oh your a little girl your so flat I thought you were a boy, now you must give me a closer look." He reached out to grope her only to be punched.

This of course shocked everyone. Scarron ran over to him to beg him to forgive her.

"You rude little girl how dare you!" His guards ran toward Louise only to be blocked by Ichigo.

"That's far enough old fart."

"How dare I am a noble."

"And that means what to me?"

"You... Capture him at once him and the washboard girl. I will have them hanged!" But as Ichigo expected Louise blew the away will her magic/kido.

"Washboard girl went to far! I did my best to serve you! Why do I have to put up with your abuse?"

"Are you... a noble?"

"I have no answer to give a low life like you."

"Well said mini Byakuya." Ichigo thought.

"Your a fallen Noble aren't you?!"

Louise pulled out the permit given to her by the Princess. "Who are you calling a fallen noble?"

Fatty changed his tune real quick and pulled bags of money and begged her to forget everything and ran off. All the girls cheered and surrounded them. Scarron told them they heard nothing and didn't press deeper into the matter. And on another note he said she won the tip contest as he pointed out the bags of gold. Louise tried on the Enchanted Fairy Bustier and asked Ichigo how she looked and was overjoyed when he said she looked real cute. Jessica came up and brought them back down to celibate with everyone. Everyone was a little drunk except Louise and Ichigo and he had to avoid being kissed by Scarron and the girls.

Outside stood a shadowed figure on the rooftops. "Hmm seems the threads of fate continue to bind us Ichigo Kurosaki." The figure soon vanished.

Hope you enjoyed!
