Author Notes: I initially had the draft for this chapter to called "White Snow Dance Waltz with Moon Slayer" due to it directly relates to their Zanpakuto's special traits and how they were a team, but I then realized how too fast paced it was. So now It's "Nice to Explode You" with a very different twist.

Also, I am apologizing for deleting certain chapters- it is because it was moving too fast and certain story elements weren't as clearly defined as I had hoped. By the ninth chapter, I should be good.

Chapter 3: Nice To Explode You


So that's where that voice came from..it's a little girl...," Ichigo said to himself in surprised astonishment. The girl's stoic face became comically cross at the last two words that were said from the orange haired boy.

Then who was the other voice...the one of the old man Ichigo thought to himself wondering about what happened on the roof with a serious face. As he did this, he was completely unaware of the young lady's anger pointed towards him.


The young woman suddenly turned her head to Ichigo's gaze with a small pupil eyed look of annoyance.

Did she hear me? Ichigo thought to himself as he was taken back by the woman walking upwards so fast that it seemed like she was flying towards him. Ichigo then gave a face of nervous shock as he prepared to run from the now sinisterly cold-eyed samurai-eque woman. He would then run across the classroom at top speeds with the woman now chasing behind him.

Keigo, Michiru, Tatsuki, Mahana, Ryo, Chizuru, Mizuiro and the other students looked with bewilderment as they saw from their perspective, Ichigo seemingly losing his mind as he ran in a circle around the now ruined classroom with a freaked out expression.

Reiichi who after spending a few minutes paralyzed in fear on the rooftop, decided to slowly walk down to his classroom finally, took a glance at Ichigo running around the classroom like a maniac. And with then with a disinterested look on his face turned his sight back to the hallway

Well, then...not getting in the middle of that mess, he thought trying to keep his head sane from the oddness he just saw and went back to class.

Chad for some reason was able to see the blurred outlines of the woman chasing Ichigo, so he tried slowly inching towards the woman so he could at least detain her. However, he then noticed something very odd on the classroom seats.

Orihime, surprisingly was able to see the woman that were invisible to the other students; was extremely distressed of Ichigo's condition and tried to move in closer to save him until the woman looked in her direction as she continued to chase Ichigo with a fierce look in her eyes. Orihime then did an adorable attempt of the same expression, but soon stopped as she saw something very threatening on the classroom desks.

Uryu, on the other hand continued to raise his strange pentagram item with a death glare towards the woman, but then stopped dead in his tracks when he saw with his bespectacled eyes, something that was very wrong.


"Why are you chasing me anyway," Ichigo panicky asked his chaser as he continued to be run.

"A little girl", the woman replied as she continued to chase him.

"Huh," Ichigo said with an irritated look of annoyance.

"A little girl? Didn't your mother tell you not to judge a book by its cover," the woman said with a comical annoyance and a pouty frown.

"I'm sorry, it's just from up on the rooftop and down below, you kinda looked smalll-," Ichigo tried to explain with a stern face, his speed decreasing as he slowed down as he continued to focus on her.

"An opening," the woman said as she suddenly vanished from Ichigo's sight and reappeared to his left side.

Ichigo gritting his teeth and to her surprise, did the same vanishing movement to the back of the classroom.

"You can use Shunpo in addition to seeing spirits. How did you-,"

Ichigo then tried to kick her, but she waved around his movement and grabbed his arm and pinned him down on the floor.

"How did you do that," she asked with a pinched brow.

"I don't know, I get karate lessons...and my dad's really interested in surprise attacks. So I just got faster," Ichigo responded with a matter of fact tone.

The woman's expression turned more serious.


"I don't have time to ask, I need to take you out of here," said the short woman to Ichigo

"These things attacked my classroom- what about the others?!" Ichigo demanded the woman with angered concern.

"They'll ignore them. You're the one they seem to be after," the woman replied calm.

"What're you- ," Ichigo said with great

"Ichigo- get out away from there," said Chad and Orihime in unison with a tone of concern.

"Chad, Orihime...what do you," Ichigo asked as he looked at them with confusion.

"Look on the desks you idiot," Uryu shouted to his classmate as he prepared to use his unusual pentagram.

"What're you-, Ichigo yelled before noticing what his glass wearing peer meant with widened shock


Fishbone D burrowed underground and crawled back to the surface on the ground on the right of it with a snarled look on his face. He looked up to his comrades, who for some reason, had resumed confident.

"It's a good thing, I did it while they were paying attention to Fishbone," said Shrieker the bat monster as he pulled out a forked tongue from his mouth.

"Then, they wouldn't have noticed the little trap, we have in store for him," Grand Fisher the furred monster continued as he pulled out his lure and grasped it in his claws.

Ichigo and the woman looked in intense shock at the sight- a cluster of green, long lobed skulled frogs with black spots on their backs.

"What the hell are those things," Ichigo asked in panicked shock.

"Crap. We know Fishbone D and Grand Fisher's tactics, but we don't know anything on how Shrieker killed those Soul Reapers- those frogs must have something to do with it,"

The frogs began glowing a foreboding yellow light as if they were about to explode-


A series of blue arrow projectiles suddenly zoomed towards the frogs, destroying them instantly. The woman turned to see Uryu with something she'd didn't expect. A blue energy bow being pulled within the two hands of the individual.

"You're a-," the woman said in surprise as she loosened her grip on Ichigo.

"Hmph, I did it in front of a Soul Reaper. I only did it because you were being sloppy," Uryu responded with a calm, yet annoyed tone as he let go of the string to push his glasses.

Chad and Orihime came over to pick up Ichigo as the black haired woman stared at Uryu.

"Thanks, Chad...Orihime why are you," Ichigo asked perplexed as his peers' actions

"N-no reason, just wanted to help out a fellow classmate," Orihime replied with an aside glance as she blushed carrying her orange haired class mate.

"Heh, I don't know what those frogs did, but-," Ichigo said with a short smile.


Ichigo never finished that sentence, a gnarled hand emerged from the center of his chest- bloody with his heart clenched in its grip. The boy turned around to see what had done this, but to his horror, it was a very familiar face.

A woman with long, wavy, light-brown hair with a serene smile was behind him and her right arm was going through his chest. The boy gave two thin lines of tears- it was the face of his mother.

The Soul Reaper then stared at Ichigo and saw the disturbing sight as she narrowed her gaze to the top of the the brown haired woman's head- it was a red limb going from her head back to the furred monster, Grand Fisher, whose face twisted with glee. After distorting her expression to intense anger, she then noticed something even more disturbing.

The green frog creatures were climbing along the limb onto the "woman" appendage and crawled onto Ichigo's body.

Ichigo sensed something was wrong, so he pushed Chad and Orihime away so they wouldn't be caught in whatever the amphibians would do.

Uryu gritted his teeth and prepared to fire at Shrieker to stop whatever he was about to do Suddenly, he saw Fishbone D suddenly jumping onto the building and latching onto the room. With its own free arm, it tried to reach for one of the female students before Uryu shot a blue arrow to pin it down. The monster cocked its head as if it was grinning. Uryu's vision turned back to Ichigo.

Shrieker gave a snicker as his tongue began to vibrate, causing the frogs to glow. A big explosion enveloped Ichigo- his body was limp and fell to the ground. The singed "woman" opened its face vertically to reveal a skull face, which quickly retracted back to Grand Fisher's side. The three monsters uttered a hellish roar.

Ichigo laid on the ground- his heart out of his chest- his eyes glazed with the increasing reality- he was about to die.
