In the Soul Society…
The Arrancar Wonderweiss slept peacefully next to his father's side as he heard his heartbeat, knowing he is alive.
The medical team was around them as the monitored their patient and felt the sadness of the young Hollow. They made sure that Wonderweiss properly ate and was tended to his needs, despite not leaving his father's side. The wound was nothing compared to the despair his resting father felt when he is betrayed by his own Zanpakutō.
Sad hurt his family because he himself was hurt.
He needed to stop Sad, then Bad, then Mad from hurting others.
But he could not do it alone.
He needed help to find him first.
Hollow Brother could find him…
Yes, he could find him and Wonderweiss could help too!
"Awuuh." He called out to the physician.
"What is it, Little One?" She asked the hollow who looked to his father sleeping in his bed.
"Awuuh. Pro-tect?" Wonderweiss voiced to the nurse.
She was confused at first but then realized what he was trying to say.
"Yes, Captain Komamura will be safe here." She assured him.
"Awuuh." Wonderweiss nodded then disappeared before the nurses could stop him.
He was a Hollow on a Mission and he needed to help his family. Things then got worse when Shūhei Hisagi entered the room and noticed Wonderweiss was gone. He looked around for him but couldn't find him anywhere.
"Where is Wonderweiss?" He asked the nurse.
"I don't know. He asked me to protect the Captain then he-he just disappeared." She told him as Shūhei was shocked.
Was Wonderweiss-?
No, no, Wonderweiss would be killed trying! He would be slaughtered in hunting for the once who caused this!
"I have to go find him."
With that, the Lieutenant disappeared as well.
In the Seireitei, in a massive battle with Muramasa…
Ichigo was rendered unconscious by the attack by his former sword as the hollow within saw a valuable opportunity to escape the inner world.
Zangetsu watched as some familiar emerged from the surface of his former master's consciousness like a shadow of darkness. In his past, it was his duty to keep this beast from bringing havoc upon the world and destroying all that is good. Now that he is now separated and Ichigo no longer has a barrier to keep the Hollow at bay, it was free.
The Hollow was freed to destroy and conquer whatever it wished.
Zangetsu saw the hungry looked of his once prisoner as his blackened eyes with a repulsive light of demonic citrine! Freed from reason and fueled instinct, he attacked without mercy as he lashed out on the Zanpakutō! Blades clashed but the hollow gain the upper hand and threw Zangetsu to the wall!
It was at this time that Wonderweiss finally reached him.
"Awuuh… Second Hollow Brother…" He muttered as he levitated down next to him, startling Muramasa.
"You again." He gasped by watched the hollowfied entity once known as Ichigo raised his blade to cut him down.
The Zanpakutō smirked as it appeared that this creature would kill the problem without him raising a finger or making contact. But the creature then stopped when he noticed his scent. They both soon began to sniff one another. The Hollow realized this pup was a part of his pack, the arrogant pup wants to take part in his battle.
"Gaauuuh!" It shouted at Wonderweiss.
"Awwuuuh!" Wonderweiss shouted back.
"Gaauuuh!"
"Awwuuuh!"
Muramasa watched as the two conversed in a language he could not understand.
"Who are you?" He asked the boy once known as Ichigo as they were ignoring him and continued their shouts at each other.
Then the elder hollow pinched Wonderweiss's neck, causing him to fall asleep as the hollow caught him and placed him to rest. Then he turned to face his opponents with a look of malice. His tongue was sticking out with hunger.
"You are not Ichigo Kurosaki." The Zanpakutō in white took notice as Zangetsu appeared behind him.
"No, it is not. This is the other soul that inhabits Ichigo's body." The shadowy man explained as the entity approached.
"The other soul?"
Then Ichigo lashed out and began his attack on the two while Wonderweiss was forgotten and was sleeping peacefully.
Meanwhile in another part at the Capital…
Shūhei Hisagi was ordered to bring Soul Reapers with him in his search for Wonderweiss and the capture of any Zanpakutō he could find.
"Alright, if you see Wonderweiss, alert me at once. The sooner we find him, the better. His is our top priority. Then once return him back to Squad Four, we'll search for the Zanpakutō." The Lieutenant ordered as it seemed very personal.
"Don't worry, Lieutenant Hisagi. Little Margela is tougher than he looks. The boy can go toe to toe with the Head Captain, I'm sure he can handle a couple of rogue swords." One of the Soul Reapers assured as he tried to help the Lieutenant calm down.
The wind whipped and wind.
"I know he's strong but what if they managed to hurt him or worse and if they lay a single hand on him, I swear…!" He growled as he gripped his sword tightly.
"Don't worry, we'll find him." The other Soul Reaper added as they were soon faced with a powerful enemy.
The tornado came through and sliced through the two Soul Reapers while Shūhei dodged it. He narrowed his eyes at the attacker.
"That speed and skill and the feel of your power are far too familiar. This attack was not done by a stranger, am I right?" Shūhei sneered as the tornado revealed the appearance of the Zanpakutō, who smirked at him.
"Kazeshini."
The shadowy entity gave a devil's smile at his former master.
"It's good to see you too, Partner. I've been itching to face you." Kazeshini as he leaped into their and attacked his former Soul Reaper!
Shūhei deflected it as the shadowy creature leaped and twirled and faced him once again.
"So, tell me, where's your son?" Kazeshini asked in a mocking voice.
He then dodged the blade of his master, who was filled with rage at his request!
"You keep away from him! If you want someone to fight, fight me!" He bellowed as the two began to duel!
He would not let this beast, his own Zanpakutō ever harm his child!
Later at the Seireitei…
Wonderweiss slowly woke up from his nap that second Hollow Brother put him in.
Second Hollow Brother was mean, he never listens to him, even when it was important, and refused to let anyone fight by his side. Hollow Brother keeps Second Hollow Brother from doing bad things, but Second Hollow Brother came to help, or kill. Since Wonderweiss was part of his pack, since Hollow Brother and Second Hollow Brother were the leaders, Wonderweiss must do what they say as the rule of the Hollow.
Wonderweiss was told not to interfere in the battle and so he must not.
The young Hollow sighed as he was not sure what to do. Then he felt it, the spiritual pressure of his father and his Zanpakutō are fighting! His father is hurt and losing!
"Da…Da…" Wonderweiss gasped as he needed to hurry!
In the Forest…
The badly injured Shūhei and Izuru faced off against the bloodthirsty Kazeshini, who suddenly stopped his rampage.
"What is he doing?" Izuru whispered under his breath.
"What's wrong? What are you waiting for? I thought you were here to reap as many lives as you can!" His former master demanded as he held in his wound.
"Oh, as much as I want to kill you, butcher you all like dogs, especially you, Shūhei! There is one other I want the fight more than you! You are just the bait to bring him here." He smirked as Shūhei realized what he meant.
They then felt a powerful and angry spiritual pressure close! They all turned around to see the enraged face of the young Hollow.
"Speak of the Devil…" Kazeshini smirked.
Wonderweiss growled as his spiritual pressure was shown!
"Wonderweiss…"
