A.N.: Hey readers! I've had this new story idea in mind for awhile and I finally decided to bring it out.

Chapter 1: Reborn in a Labyrinth

'Ugg, my head. What is this? What the hell happened to me?' Ichigo groaned while his head was spinning. He couldn't remember what happened to him exactly, but he did recall some kind of flash of light. Then for an instant he felt an immense amount of pain all over his body and everything went blank. All he could see was pitch-black darkness, meaning it was either nighttime or he was trapped in something. A blindfold would have also made sense if he was kidnapped and bound somehow, which he hoped wasn't the case. But he didn't feel anything covering his eyes or restraining his body, so there went that idea. Right when he tried to move, his body was numb and was almost unable to work. This made him think of another alternative. 'Maybe someone knocked me out?' He shook his head of the thought. If somebody actually did, where were they?

Having enough of trying figure out his situation, Ichigo had to somehow get out of...wherever he was even at. With his mind being more awake and aware of the surrounding darkness he felt some kind of hard surface. Then he felt that same surface all around his body. 'Guess I was put into something? Like a box?' Then another thought crossed his mind while picturing a certain shopkeeper. 'What kind of sick joke is this, Kisuke! Is this your doing?!'

Even though he couldn't move his arms and legs because they were still numb, Ichigo used his body to move the pod around him to see if it might move...which surprising did. 'Okay, now to get out of this thing.' he continued to move around and he could feel like he was making progress to whatever was outside the pod. Then he felt like he hit against something hard from the outside. 'Now's my chance!' He repeated the action and the more times he did it, Ichigo was seeing something glowing from the newly formed cracks from his prison. Getting ready for the final push as he backed up, he felt his podded cage fall off whatever was keeping it in place while rolling down. When it was stopped against something, Ichigo was a bit dizzy from that roll. That was the last straw! Regaining his senses while seeing cracks were all over his confinement, it was time get out this stupid thing. With one last push, he was out at last.

"I'm free! Finally! Your so dead for this Kisu...ke...?" His eyes widened with his words and breath taken away. Looking around to his surrounding he was in a cave of sorts. The ceiling was high up and he was also surrounded by oval shaped rocks. "What...the...hell..."

Ichigo looked back toward the thing he was in a second ago and saw it looked just like the rocks he was surrounded by. He scratched his head in confusion. "Wait, why was I in a rock? I don't understand, how that's even possible..." He stopped speaking when he saw his right arm was covered, in dark blue scales?!

"Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!" He yelled out while creating an echo in the cave, not just because of his arm, but his whole body too. He turned into a hollow a few times in the past, but this was completely different! His whole form was covered in scales and he even had a tail...a tail!

"This can't be happening. This can't be happening. This can't be happening." He repeated over and over while rubbing his eyes while trying to wake up. Looking at himself again, he couldn't understand how this even happened. Then he looked towards a wall that had a glowing crystal sticking out. Shaking his head to calm down somewhat, he had to do one last test if this was really a dream or not. "This is stupid, I know. But I really need to find out if I'm actually awake." He walks on all fours and charges straight towards the large crystal. Right as he was at it, he headbutted the hard object, leaving a small crack on impact.

"Ow! Okay, I'm not dreaming. Ow." He grunts while rubs his hurt head with his small scaly arms. Then he saw his reflection through the crystal like a mirror and it was bizarre. He was a small lizard alright, just like he thought. His whole body was dark blue, but his abdomen light yellow. He had three small red horns on his head and his eyes were yellow. Turning around to see his back, he had red spikes on his upper back. "This is really happening, isn't it?"

Taking a deep breath, he exhaled. He walked on his fours back to the pod he came from. But looking more closely at it...he came from an egg. Realizing that, those small rocks he thought they were surrounding him, were most likely eggs too. "Okay, I still can't remember what exactly happened to me, but I can't deny that I've been reborn as some kind of lizard," he looks at his small hands, "From the looks of it, I've been isekia'd somehow apparently..." he sighed while remembering all those anime shows Keigo made him watch whenever they hanged out after school.

"Okay, lets recap to what happened before this, this situation." he scowls while rubbing his head in frustration as he was remembering he had to transfer schools because of his spiritual duties. His thoughts went to his conversation with Kisuke a few months ago after his old school kicked him out.

Flashback

Four months ago...

You would think after saving every single person in Karakura town and including the Soul Society, you would get some thanks, right?

Nope...

It's not like he was expecting some word of thanks. All that was on Ichigo's mind in the spiritual realms were rescuing his friends because they meant a lot to him. Aizen and his forces were going to attack his hometown so it could be used as a sacrifice, all to make a disgusting key. Like hell that was going to happen! In order to beat the madman who was already powerful enough while using the Hogyoku to empower himself even further. The young teen had to use an ultimate technique called the Final Getsuga Tensho. As the name fits it clearly, such power was not without cost, all of his power were that cost. Right after unleashing his 'final' attack, it put a massive strain on Ichigo's body that it hurt all over and was out cold for about a whole month. He was happy and proud that he stopped Aizen, the mastermind behind Rukia's execution and using Orihime to heal his subordinates. The orange-haired teen may have lost his powers, but his friends and family were safe again and that made it worth it in the end to him. But unfortunately, things continued to go not in his favor when he returned to his normal life.

After everything was over, his own school was tired of Ichigo's long absences. Between his substitute Shinigami duties and saving the entire town from being obliterated, which includes the school as well, there wasn't anything he could say to defend himself. Also given his reputation to being dragged into fights because of his natural hair color, he was already walking on a thin line with the teachers before he became a Soul Reaper.

So unfortunately...he was expelled from his highschool...

All his friends from class and surprisingly Uryu tried to defend him. However, the principle wouldn't budge. There was no way they could say the whole reason why he was absent many times from school for the past few months was because he had duties in the spiritual realm and was then caught into a war that would've destroyed the whole town and many lives in the process. So...Ichigo's expulsion was sadly unavoidable.

From what Ichigo heard soon afterward from Kisuke himself around a weeks ago, Central 46 ordered all the Shinigamis that were close to the ex-substitute were to not make contact with him anymore. Meaning Rukia and Renji couldn't visit the town in Gigais or send messages. They were like best friends to him in such short time and it hurt that they couldn't see each other anymore. Of course the young man was pissed at the Soul Society's government for being sore losers. You would think after the said teenager saving the moles living underground in their high chairs would give their thanks to him. From the former captain's sources, the new Central 46 after the old ones were killed by Aizen felt extremely humiliated that they were saved by a 'brat' as they put it, and not one of their thirteen captains.

What did they basically do? They pretty much brushed him off like dirt under a rug.

The unspoken hero of two worlds was at Kisuke's shop. The ex-captain Kisuke pulled some strings to help the boy to get into another high-school on the other side of Karakura Town from his old school.

"Well, Ichigo. Looks like I've did it again to get you out of a tight spot." Kisuke held his fan to cover his face in front of his computer, "You can now attend Heishin high-school right here in Karakura Town, starting next Monday. I already went ahead to buy your new school uniform, supplies, and your books. Your all set for the year!"

Ichigo was sitting across the table with a sad look on his face. "Thanks for helping out with this, Kisuke."

The shopkeeper didn't like to hear his old student sounding depressed. He gets up from his computer and offers a cup of tea that was next to him to the teenager.

The two sat in silence for a minute until Ichigo breaks the ice as he accepts the tea. After taking a sip, he speaks. "I hope my time in this school will be better than my old one. Since apparently my old school have been wanting me out since I first attended there."

"I apologize that the Soul Society's problems dragged you into their mess, Ichigo. It's also just as my fault for not providing you more help when you needed it when you were becoming aware of the spiritual world. I should've done better, forgive me." he bows to the boy.

Seeing the craftiest man in existence bowing in apology in Ichigo's opinion was shocking. Regaining himself after a few seconds, the teen surprised the shopkeeper as well when he shook his head, "I'm not mad at you, Kisuke. I don't regret what I did, not at all. Everyone in my hometown was about to be erased for some key and I had to stop Aizen at any cost. My friends and family are safe now and I'm satisfied with that. Besides, you had your own version of problems while Aizen was playing with the captains and everyone else in the Soul Society like puppets for years. All I can do know is try to move on into this new school for a fresh start, right?" he raised his head up with a small grin on his face to show he's doing okay.

The former captain of squad 12 nodded with a small smile.

"Ichigo," Kisuke gets the young man's attention, "If your ever in trouble, or need someone to talk to about anything. I'm always open in this shop to help you. Day or night, I'll answer, okay?"

Hearing that cheered the scowling teen up some. He responded with a small smile of gratitude. "Thanks, Kisuke."

Kisuke took out his fan to cover the lower part of his face, "No more Hat-n-clogs?" he grinned behind the fan.

Ichigo snorted at that while scratching the back of his head. "Shut up! Way to kill the mood."

"There can be me and only me, Ichigo!" The devious man laughed.

End of flashback...

The small lizard cracked a small grin of the memory. "He had that right. " He took another look around too see where to go from here. Since he...hatched, his lizard parents must be around the nest somewhere.

'Okay, what happened next?' He tries to recall more. He's been going to his new school of Heishin Highschool for the past four months if he remembered right with his head still a bit fuzzy. The closest thing he could recently remeber was that he was walking through the hallway and back to class from somewhere. Then right when he was about to open the door to his classroom, a bright light came out of nowhere...and that was it. "Damn..."

Ichigo took a small breath. "Alright, I think I've accepted the reality of being reincarnated...as much as I really don't want to. But you'd think whoever brought me here could give me some idea of what's going on at least, let alone some kind of small clue, I guess?" He talks to himself, not expecting an answer in this empty cave. To his surprise he actually got one, but not what he was expecting...

"Do you wish to gain the skill [Appraisal LV1]?"

Ichigo's yellow lizard eyes widened. "Wait, what? Who's there?!" He quickly looks around to whoever just spoke but didn't see anyone. It sounded like a woman's voice of sorts, but it was empty and drained of emotion. That was way too strange even for him, despite everything that's happening to him in too short of time. But something it said caught his attention as well. "Gaining the skill, Appraisal? The hell do you mean? Show yourself!"

"By obtaining the skill: [Appraisal LV1], you will receive information of those you want to understand."

'It's like that voice is just coming from thin air. But what's this about gaining skills? Like a video game?' The small blue lizard groaned. Way too much nonsense is happening all at once. It was giving the scowling lizard a headache.

"Number of skill points currently in your possession: 200,000. Number of skill points required to acquire skill [Appraisal LV1]: 100 skill points are needed. Acquire this skill?"

'I guess this is like a video game, but I highly doubt it since I actually felt pain. What was the number of points she said I had again?' Shaking his head realizing he wasn't getting anywhere, Ichigo made up his mind. "I don't know who you are, but if this skill can help me get a better idea of what's in this damn cave, then yes, I would appreciate this Appraisal skill, right?" It wasn't like he had anything to lose, other than his already lost human body now turned small lizard.

"[Appraisal LV1] acquired. Remaining skill points: 199,900."

Hearing the large number of points in his preserves made his eyes widen. "Damn, that's a lot of points! Why the heck do I have so much when just one skill cost me a small bit?" But catching himself of what he could do with all these points, he had to stay calm and refocus. "If this really is a bit similar to video games, then I better keep my guard up at all times. If there's anything that Keigo's anime craze nonsense taught me, it's that caves hold the worst of the worst of monsters. Even with all these points I have, I better not waste them until I better understand my situation." He takes a breath and exhales to relax a bit.

He takes a minute with his thoughts. 'This isn't my first time going to other worlds, but this is completely different in so many ways. Now that I'm a Kon sized reptile, I have to somehow find a way out of here. If I can find out more about his place as I go, I might find a way back home. Hope Yuzu and Karin don't mind me being a talking lizard...'

Then he felt something shacking the ground, it was coming from out of the shadows of the tunnel towards the nest. Right in front of Ichigo...was a giant dragon! It's appearance is fierce too. There's not much to say about the behemoth, other than it was completely purple from head to toe. It had two large horns from it's head down to it's neck. It was hard too see from Ichigo's small size, but the dragon looked like it had a spiked shell on it's back making it look like some kind of turtle. Every step it took a step, the ground shook beneath his small feet that it made the reincarnated teenager fall on his stomach.

"What it this thing?! A dragon?! Appraise!" he held his hand up toward the large creature while struggling to get up.

"Dragon."

'...Yeah, I already figured that out! Though...I guess since it's level 1, it won't tell me much until I level it up somehow, but an actual Dragon, huh? Damn it! It's heading straight for me!' He tried to run on his four legs from it, but the shacking ground was making him lose his balance every time. His weak newborn legs were making it impossible to gain any distance. Like it wouldn't have mattered anyway since the size difference would've made it simple for the largest dragon to catch up to him regardless of the ground trembling or not. But regardless he still tried.

Then he felt something grab his tail and lifted him up. Ichigo really didn't need to guess who already got him. Hanging upside down, he can see he was being moved back to the nest.

The dragon turtle slowly lowered it's head to the nest. It opened it's mouth to gently release the blue lizard's tail.

"Oof!" Came from the small impact on the nest Ichigo landed on. The dragon continued to stare at him with it's glowing blue eyes. Picking himself up, Ichigo stared back at the massive dragon with a glare.

After an intense minute, the ground shook again. Then out of nowhere another dragon came from behind the first one and stood by it's side. It was all white colored with a thin neck. It had large purple spikes covering it's backside just like other one, but it's large body was skinnier built.

'Figures there was another one, great...' he mentally grumbled in annoyance while doing a quick appraisal on the new dragon.

"Dragon" Ichigo felt like smacking himself for doing something he already knew was useless, then he got an unexpected surprise, "Proficiency has reached the required level. Skill [Appraisal LV1] is now [Appraisal LV2]."

'The heck? I just got this skill and it already went up a level?' He thought

Right when the teenager in the small lizard body was about to comment on the sudden skill upgrade, both the elder earth dragons were roaring at the other. Ichigo didn't know what suddenly got into them, but they were looking back at him and back to each other. For some reason he got the feeling they were pissed off and it might be involving him. Then they went about something how dragons are supposed to more powerful than spiders and their territory keeps getting invaded by them. The white dragon was scolding the bulkier dragon about how it was stupid for being too far away from the nest. They didn't want their young to be consumed and they couldn't stand it...wait, what?

Ichigo just realized he was actually understanding the dragon's squabble. 'How am I even understanding this? They've just kept growling and roaring, not even a single word came from them and yet, I understood all that? How?'

But he shook his small head. He shouldn't be surprised at all in some odd way given the circumstances. He was just a small baby dragon, it made sense how he understood them since he was one of them now, but it was still surprising regardless. The moment those two dragons showed up, it was a no brainier that he was a dragon himself. But still bizarre of how this even happened to him at all.

Since his skill upgraded, he appraised the two dragons again. Starting from the big purple one to the white colored dragon.

"Earth Dragon: Kagna."

"Earth Dragon: Gehre."

Okay, his skill can now tell him what exactly the type of species the dragons are and including their names as well. Out of curiosity with the Appraisal skill, he thought about what would happen if he appraised himself by pressing his right arm on his left shoulder, which it worked. Then he noticed something strange on his own information.

"Earth Wrym: No Name/Ichigo Kurosaki."

"No name, what? How does this make sense...despite everything else? I still have my name, yet is says I don't have one? Probably some game glitched bull-crap, well whatever, it's not that important right now." he shrugged. He moved onto something else and not stressing on his name. He wondered on his species of what it meant? He was glad he wasn't an earth worm he thought at first. An earth wyrm in the fantasy world, and like in games he can gain skills. Which also meant he could level up like his Appraisal skill just did. But that was a long shot if that's how it works here. So, now he had to come up with a plan...and how does he come up with one in this messed up situation? On one hand, the most obvious choice would to somehow get stronger and evolve if this really was like the games. But on the other, given that he just hatched, it would be difficult to find foes similar to his strength around this mysterious cave. For all he knew it could probably be a huge maze down here. So wondering off too far might make him spider chow like his dragon guardians were roaring on about. Which they finally stopped with Kagna snorting and going down the pathway it came from, leaving Gehre to watch over the nest.

'Normally in my past life if my friends were in danger, I would go through hell and beyond to save them. But this is completely different since nobody I know is here. I guess the only thing I can do for now is stay put and wait for the right time to leave the nest. I mean, in the state I'm in for the time being, I can't fight back until I get stronger somehow.' Right when he was about to lay down, a small chunk of meat was dropped next to him. Looking up, it was Gehre who dropped the meat from it's mouth from high above and it nodded at him to eat it. Turning back to the piece of meat, the smell of it got into the small lizard's nostrils and it made him drool. Since he was in no position to complain, he had to get what he could eat.

'Guess I have to eat something.' he takes a small bite with his tiny teeth and starts eating it, even though the taste of it wasn't good it was still decent enough.

Meanwhile at Heishin Highschool in Karakura Town...

At the highschool, multiple police cars, fire trucks, and etc surrounded the building in a frenzy.

A young news reporter spoke live in front of the camera's, "I'm coming to you live with a special report! Just an hour ago, part of the Heishin Highschool, here in Karakura town, suddenly exploded. We don't have many details of how it happened, but it seems a only classroom was caught in the unknown attack. I'm very sad to say after the firefighters and ambulances cleared the destroyed classroom as soon as we arrived on the scene, none of the students and the teacher survived. The teacher studied in classic literature was named Miss. Nanami Okazaki. We don't have a list of the students involved in the classroom at the moment, but the whole school has been evacuated and the students not caught into the blast have been sent right home. The police are doing a thorough investigation of what exactly transpired here and how was the classroom the only victim to this tragedy."

In a tree right next to the school, a certain black cat was groaning while just coming out of unconsciousness and was waking up. She was looking after Ichigo from a small distance away of his new school life. Then out of the blue, a blast suddenly came out of nowhere from inside the classroom he was in. The force of it pushed her to the tree she was in now while her breath was knocked out of her and made her pass out. The former captain of the stealth force widen her eyes as she retracted her memories before the sudden attack. "Damn! How long was I out?!" she quickly took notice of what was happening around her. "What was that blast? It was, how...oh no, Ichigo!" Yoruichi quickly moved out of the tree and in the blink of an eye she was in the destroyed classroom. Since she was in soul form nobody could see her, but the moment she went in the destroyed room, she gasped in horror.

Everything in what used to be peaceful classroom was completely destroyed. Yoruichi slowly and with shaken steps, walked around the room while she couldn't believe it what she was seeing. It didn't feel real, but she couldn't deny the reality before her eyes. 'How? How did this happen?'

Regaining her focused somewhat, she looked around for her favorite orange head, she couldn't find a piece of his body anywhere.

"H-how, how d-did this happen?" her yellow eyes were full of tears, "How did this happen?!" she yelled out in anguish. She really cared for the boy because Ichigo was like family to her. Losing him like this soon after he just saved this town and the whole world, he's suddenly killed out of nowhere!

"This is far from right! He didn't fucking deserve this! Damn it! How did this happen!" She flashed stepped still in her cat form without missing a beat. Hoping Kisuke might have an answer to how something like this shouldn't have happened.

Unknown to the Flash Goddess herself, someone was watching her from a small distance in a shady corner on a nearby rooftop. The person grinned mischievously in the shade and vanishes into the darkness.

Back in the Labyrinth a bit later...

Waking up from a nap, the reincarnated substitute Shinigami stretched his four legs and yawned. Being underground in a never ending darkness, it was difficult to tell how many days he's been here already. For the past few days he guessed in his mind, Ichigo used some of his skill points to obtain a few new skills. Having enough of not seeing anything through the cavern tunnel and not relying on just glowing rocks to see, he picked Night Vision and Stealth skills to work on evading strong monsters within the cavern.

With some effort with his limited space of the nest, his skill level of Night Vision increased a bit because he's surround by eternal shadows. His Stealth skill also goes up some from simply moving around and trying to be quiet around his dragon parent. It was basically practicing and refining them, though that was fine for now. Not any different than sharpening a sword or concentrating on firing a Getsuga Tensho on knowing when to unleash it. So gaining something he can actually see in the shadows and whats coming while having some ability to hide whatever came sounded like a good plan.

Even with so many points to spare, it's best to only use them when he absolutely has to. There were still to many unknowns and there's still much to do because he was just a hatchling and needed to get stronger right away. He might be under the protection of two strong dragons, but from watching nature shows, it won't be long before a predator cleverly sneaks around them and goes after easy prey from the nest.

"Like hell I'm going to be someone's dinner. Night Vision and Stealth combined will make it easy for me to expect something coming through a one way tunnel. But that's extremely not enough. I'm not a big gamer, but I do know this much, underground caverns hold way too many monsters. This atmosphere brings me back to the Menos Forest where hollows were at every corner, that was intense. I haven't seen anything besides the two earth dragons yet, but I need to gain more strength if I'm going to survive here. But what more can I do right now?" he waves his hand to see his states, a trick he learned from Keigo's anime. Unfortunately he could still only see his species race and his name. Having a hunch, but if he were to keep upgrading his Appraisal skill since it's still on level two then he might see his skill list if there even is one.

Suddenly out of nowhere the sound of heavy footsteps rang in his ears.

With his Night Vision skill, Ichigo could make out the shape of someone clade in armor with glowing red eyes walked towards him. When the figure finally came into the light of the glowing crystals next to the nest, it was indeed a man in armor, but the presence of this person was bizarre. In fact it was so intimating, Gehre instantly got up from it's rest and moved aside for the man in armor to continue forward. His entire body from head to toe was covered in black armor with only his face uncovered with ominous glowing red eyes and with a crimson cape on his back. Maybe it was instinct from his old days of being a substitute Shinigami or how the giant dragon didn't dare get in the way of this person, but the man had a powerful aura that it was hard to breath. When Ichigo tried to appraise him, this came up...

"Cannot be Appraised."

'Huh, I can't appraise him? Is it because my skills' too weak?' Ichigo thought to himself while trying not to panic from the dark armored man. His instincts were screaming of trying to run from this being. But he knew he couldn't do that. Two reasons, one, he highly doubted a newborn dragon could run away from this guy like he couldn't with the turtle dragon. Two, he already stared death in the face too many times in the past, so if this was his end, then he wasn't going to let it happen without some struggle. Standing up straight, the small earth wyrm looked straight into the man's red eyes with a glare from his own yellow ones.

"******? *** ***,*** ******?" The man spoke in a different language to the reincarnated reptile with a black aura radiating off of him. "*** *** *** *** ******** ** **** ********. ******* *** ******* ***** *** *** **!" Despite not understanding what the man was saying and with sweat running down his blue scales, Ichigo continued to not budge from the figures frightening power.

'I don't know who you are, pal. But if your trying to make me bow to you, then forget it! I kneel to no one, in this world, or my old one! Do your worst!' He shouts in his mind while scowling fiercely.

"Proficiency has reached the required level. Acquired Skill [Fear Resistance LV1]."

For the past few seconds of the two staring down at eachother, the intensity felt more like minutes than seconds. The one in dark armor surprisingly gave Ichigo a smile then nodded. "*** ****** *** ****. **** ****. *** ** **** ***** ****** ***." As soon as he finished speaking, he rose his hand and opened a void of some kind, similar to a garganta in Ichigo's perspective. "******* ***** *******." He spoke once more and stepped into the void as it closed behind him.

As soon as he was gone, Ichigo fell on his back with a breath of relief. "Who was that guy? At first I thought he came to kill me, but he didn't. Was he really trying make me obey him?" He growls at that. His anger and confusion catches up to him as his small body shook. So much has happened in too short of time, he couldn't help but let out his frustration. "I'm still trying to understand this damn place and now some random guy out of nowhere in black armor comes over and makes his dominance clear, then leaves after some words. I'm more confused than ever now and I'm sick of this damn place!"

Ichigo vents out as he grabs onto a rock near him around his size and starts banging his head on it. "I've had enough! I'm not going to be a part of this stupid game!"

After a few minutes he final stopped with heavy breaths. His forehead had a big bruise with some blood running down.

"Proficiency has reached the required level. Acquired Skill [Pain Resistance LV1]."

"I really don't give a damn about new skills right now!" he groans. Using all his strength his small lizard form could give him, he picks up the big and heavy rock and he tosses it aside.

"Proficiency has reached the required level. Acquired Skill [Throw LV1]."

Ichigo's young wyrm's yellow eye twitched in irritation by that. He speaks while being out of breath. "Is this voice lady...mocking me? All I did was throw...a simple rock...and that counted as gaining a skill? I didn't even use...my skill points to get it...or the resistance ones either..." He rubbed his forehead from hurting himself to get his sanity back and found out the pain was lessening already. While thinking that, he regained his breath and straightened up now that he calmed down.

"It doesn't hurt much now? Probably from that Pain Resistance skill or whatever I just got? But still..." He lied down on his small stomach, clearly tired from his meeting with the man in armor and letting his anger and frustration out. With a long sigh and moving his small body he appraised himself for no reason to look at his stats. When he did, he noticed something strange...

"Earth Wrym: Araba/Ichigo Kurosaki."

This left the ex-substitute Shinigami at a loss for words of seeing another name next to his own. "Wait a minute? Who's Araba?"

To be continued...

A.N.: Tada! What do you guys think of this interesting story crossover for the new year?

Out of curiosity, I thought since Ichigo has always been on hard-mode when coming across tight situations and fighting powerful foes in a short span of time. So, why not give him have a fresh new start in the Great Elroe Labyrinth of all places. I'm evil, right?

To top it off, I had Ichigo reincarnated as not just any dragon, but Araba, the earth dragon himself! Won't that be an interesting adventure of chaos and laughs? Of course it will!

Leave a review and I'll see you guys next time!
