Karakura Town

Two attractive Arrancar's and one tomgirl found each other running through the dark abyss of the Garganta. Their mission is to gather the current Cuatro Espada and return back to Las Noches. This was very important, but they continued to bicker among trivial things. Despite their mission, they couldn't help but worry for their cherished Espada.

"Shit, was there army huge?" Apacci asked.

"It was large, but I think we outnumber them regardless." Mila Rose replied.

"Yes, I even saw Kurosaki Ichigo among them." The Third replied. The other two gasped in shock, completely baffled on why the Shinigami Hero would be working with the enemy.

"Damn…he must have been tricked or something. I mean, didn't he sacrifice everything for the Shinigami?" Apacci asked.

Her snake sister nodded, "Yea, something is definitely wrong."

The three saw the light and jumped through. They didn't spend any time looking around at the scenery, only searching for the Shinigami outpost. Szayel had radar of Karakura town ever since everyone was healed back into Las Noches. He knew where everything was so they could fly easily, and no one was able to really slow them down in time. They arrived at the Urahara Shop and busted their way in, totally ignoring the people who were willing to open the door for them.

They caught Urahara sitting in place while drinking some tea, "Well, Well! This is a nice surprise, what could I for you lovely young women?" the seditious man said with a friendly smile.

"Neliel-sama, where is she!?" Apacci demanded as he wrung his collar.

"Whaaat?" he manages to utter before being slammed into the ground.

"Neliel, the green-haired Cuatro Espada. She came here, and I'm sure you are well aware of it." Sung-Sun said.

"Oooooooh! Now that you mention it, I did see someone wearing all white with green hair. But I didn't catch a face." He replied innocently.

"Then where were you looking at…" Mila asked as she rose and gave the man a suspicious look.

"Hehehe….well…" he trailed off. The man was brutally slapped multiple times across the face before being violently thrown down. The three stared with disgust, but still had to think about what to do. As they did so, a familiar young woman entered the store.

"Orihime!" Apacci exclaimed, happy to see a familiar face.

"You three!" she yelled, surprised to see the Arrancar. Her eyes widen as Urahara lay on the floor, a trail of blood flowing down the side of his face. She gasped and ran over, but Apacci sternly told her to leave the man and that he deserved getting a beating.

"Orihime, we came to retrieve Neliel-Sama. Las Noches is under attack by the Quincy." Sung-Sun explained, far more calm than the others. They both just decided to let her do the talking, as one would unconsciously say something to offend the other.

"Hmmm… Nel did sneak up on me a few hours ago…she may be with Kurosak-kun's little sister." She replied. The three all looked away, they clearly knew how fond Orihime was of Ichigo and they all had nothing against her. After all, she was the one who healed all three of them, including the third Espada.

"Right… well, can you tell her to return to Las Noches? We have no time to waste and must leave now." Sung-Sun said. The orange-haired girl nodded, but knew something was off in her voice, as if she was trying to hide something from the girl.

"I'll go find her! But is there something you guys wanted to tell me…?" she asked. Orihime wasn't completely clueless, she knew when something was up.

The three looked to each other, all hoping they have the same thought.

"No, nothing at all."

"Your crush is with the enemy."

"Your boyfriend is gay."

The two wondered why on earth Apacci said something so inappropriate, unnecessary, and something completely false. "What? I hoped it would get us off…" she trailed. It was a good attempt, because the confusion could lead them a way out. Sung-Sun decided it would best not to tell as they could pretend they didn't know. Mila Rose thought since Inoue saved her life, the least she could do was to tell the truth. And Appaci said something completely random, and completely false.

"Kurosaki-kun…he…he what?" she stuttered. Sung-Sun sighed and began telling the story of how they got a glimpse of Ichigo before they left.

Inoue softly lowered her eyes and fell to the floor, by now Urahara and Yoruichi had come by to see what the chatter was. "Ichigo? Did someone say Ichigo?" the purple-haired neko said before rushing into the group.

"No we didn't! Now scram, granny!" Apacci yelled. She was never fond of Shinigami, especially ones who are rude enough to barge into conversations. Then again, she did barge into the shop without any permission. Yoruichi didn't take those words too kindly, especially since Ichigo was involved in the whole mess. The Arrancar was sent flying out of the store, crashing through each wall and destroying the entire interior.

"Now. Tell me. Ichigo. Talk." She threatened with ferocious eyes.

10 Minutes Later…

Yoruichi collapsed alongside Orihime, who was still shocked to hear that Ichigo had departed and is now supposedly working with the Quincy. They did not consider it entirely; he could've been brainwashed or forced to against his will.

The three said there farewells and quickly opened a Garganta. They leaped through and began running through the abyss towards Hueco Mundo. The battle there would be unknown and they could only imagine what kind of foes they would be forced to battle again.

They sprung through and re-entered there dark world together. Eyes widened as many recognizable bodies remain on the floor spread-eagled like trash. The girls could also see many soldat carrying their bodies to the back of the army. 'They're capturing us!' the three said in unison.

"I know I was always a handsome one, but you three ladies really did come from nowhere." A cocky voice calls from behind. They turn around and cringe at the sight of Quilge Opie, who was standing there with a lecherous grin.

"Ew." They all uttered.

"Ew? It's a blessing you all are even alive to see us Quincy's in battle, even if some are more degenerate than others. Anyways, surrender now or be captured with force. Don't expect the latter to be easy though." He said lowly. They all cursed the man and charged at him recklessly.

Ichigo

Dorodni slashed his katana-like Zanpakuto directly above Ichigo. Luckily, the teen had improved reaction time, and ducked at the right moment. Ichigo then slammed his right leg into the Espada, sending him back into the air. The teen took this and quickly fired a set of arrows, but wasn't aiming too hard. He just had to hit him once and he would have the advantage.

One arrow managed to graze Dorodni, but didn't do much damage. "Bala," The Espada uttered before firing a high speed power of crimson energy from his fist. Ichigo, remaining calm, fired another arrow.

"Heilig Pfeil," he chanted before shooting an enhanced holy arrow. They both watched with lowered expressions as the arrow ripped through the Bala, causing Dordoni to widen his eyes. He had no time to dodge as the black holy arrow shot into his shoulder, rendering his ability to hold his sword in his right hand useless.

"I don't like this power. It doesn't feel right, I would have liked it better if you were using a sword." He spoke before gripping the blade with his left hand.

Ichigo retorted back, but not with words. "Licht Regen," he said before shooting a shower of arrows towards the Espada.

"Whirl…"

BOOM

A small explosion erupted from Ichigo's current position. Smoke formed from the area, but the Quincy widened his eyes as he saw Dordoni completely unscathed.

"…Giralda." He finished, revealing his complete released form. He unleashed a sudden tornado that blocked the other set of arrows Ichigo had just tried shooting, surprising him even more. He narrowed his eyes at the new appearance, gaining horns on his shoulders and armor that reached from his shoulder and down to his feet.

The devil-looking man launched a series of wind-created cyclones that spiraled at Ichigo at high speeds. The orange-haired Quincy had already faced these before, so he knew that using Hirenkyaku would be the best way to dodge them.

"Fast!" he said before launching more of his wind based attacks. Ichigo began repelling the cyclones with holy arrows. Since he was able to fire many at high-speeds, Dordoni's cyclones were practically useless.

Ichigo took the next initiative and turned his bow sideways, now forming a crossbow-like fashion. He used three of his fingers to string it back, where three enhanced holy arrows suddenly formed shortly after. The reishi in Hueco Mundo fits him well, it's as if the world if more suitable to his type of reiatsu.

"Cero!" he heard Dorodni utter. Ichigo saw the crimson energy come towards him at intense speeds, but Ichigo had also fired his own technique just at the same time.

Ichigo's black holy arrows collided with the Cero, causing a small explosion to erupt at that moment. The powers seemingly canceled each other out, but Dorodni widened his eyes when he felt an immense amount of pain in his abdomen. He looks down and sees the arrow sticking through his body, but failing to pierce the other side. He is lucky his hierro was enhanced in his true release.

Ichigo smirked at his success; he was now holding the complete advantage. He used hirenkyaku and got close, hoping to end this. But his eyes shot open as the buzzing sound of Sonido rang in his hears.

"You underestimate me, Ichigo!" he cried out before smacking his leg downwards. The seventeen year old was sent flying to the ground. But before his body could hit the hard sand, he heard the sound once more and cursed. The Espada was notorious for being one to fight with his fists rather than his sword, so he showed Ichigo once again his fierce moves.

The orange-haired male felt a series of punches and kicks before being sent flying back once more. Despite his eyes being closed, he felt the smirk Dorodni had on while beating Ichigo.

Once he felt some relief, he slowly opened his eyes. Although he saw a charging Dordoni, his eyes gaze elsewhere. For just one second, he locked eyes with Bambietta, who was fighting in a different area. She didn't have much of an expression on her face, but he swore he could see a frown.

That frown blew his mind up, and he soon realized that he was worrying her. He lowered his eyes and faced the charging Spanish man, but no longer willing to close his eyes.

CATCH

Ichigo opened his palm and caught the oncoming fist, causing the negative Espada to look up filled with shock. "Is this how-" The man couldn't finish as a sudden red liquid got his attention.

SLASH

A long slash reached down from his shoulder down to his hip, he didn't realize what had happened until he fell to the ground. The black-haired man manages to open one eye, but soon understod when he notices the strange weapon Ichigo was wielding in his hand.

His weapon was black at the hilt, and composed of reishi. Its design was similar to just a long Kris dagger, except looking to more of a blade-like form. It has a distinctive looking wavy blade, but looked fitting for Ichigo.

"You seem to have me down, but you know I won't give up!" he yelled before having the strength to rise once more. "Ave Mellizos!" he uttered before two giant-powerful tornados came spiraling from his body. They formed multiple bird-like extensions and looked down on Ichigo as if he was a prey.

The orange-haired Quincy knew he could take one, but feared that the other would hit him at the same moment. And knowing his body is already damaged, he fears getting hit could put him unconscious, or even worse.

But he had no time to react when they descended onto him. Ichigo slashed his sword outwards, causing a slash of energy to follow with it, but as it came in contact with the birds, nothing changed. They took his powerful slash without getting scathed.

He ran using Hirenkyaku, but the birds were just as quick. The bow formed and Ichigo tried firing arrows but felt immense pressure on his back before flying forward.

That feeling…

He felt that feeling come again…

The one he used when training against Gerard and when Yhwach tested his blood. Either it was his hidden reiatsu reacting, or he could actually feel himself evolving. The bow turned black and heavy, but he wasn't focused on that. He lashed his bow outwards, but felt like that was the wrong thing to do. Either way, a result occurred, surprising both fighters. The bow was actually larger than Ichigo, furthering confusing him. He thought he had messed up in gathering reishi, and by mistake had gathered too much.

But as the bow formed, he forced a wave of energy to run through it, causing multiple arrows run above it. Ichigo launched this in the air, but to his surprise, the power was far more than he had originally thought of.

The arrows reached the skies, but eventually came back down. The aura was also trailed, and everyone who was battling took a notice of this. The arrows were massive, and contained enormous amounts of power.

Dordoni only looked down, seeing the confused look Ichigo had in his eyes. He clearly didn't know what he had just done. But as he tried to continue thinking, blood splattered all over his body, and as he descended back to the ground, he saw nothing buck darkness.

What was that?

Ichigo thought as his body collapsed onto the sand. Dorodni's body collaspses next to him, whom was now unconscious. Ichigo didn't know what to do with him, he d doesn't want the man waking up and attacking him again, or one of his friends.

Starrk

The coyote man was struggling to keep up with the Balance, he did not expect to be out-matched, especially in a sword battle.

A sudden long black wave of energy caught the attention of both leaders, they darted their eyes to the side before lowering to see what had occurred. The black wave was actually a large reishi bow, but only Haschwalth knew that. The blonde widened his eyes as many Holy Arrows shot from it, the holy arrows reached to the skies and pierced an Arrancar.

'Dordoni…' Starrk said to himself with a curse. He knew the man had lost, but he hopes he wasn't finished off.

The Balance widened his eyes, 'That power… he's growing fast!' he told himself before focusing back to his own battle. He used his superb Hirenkyaku and appeared from below, hoping to get a luck stab in the back. Starrk annoyingly looked over and surprised the man by using his own speed, which was far greater. The blonde heard the buzz of sonido and slashed his sword downwards. He guessed right, and the two had a decent stalemate.

"Cero," he uttered before a sudden blue energy sparked from his chest.

'What? He didn't even make a gesture or a fighting pose!' B said. He tried escaping at the last moment, but was soon blasted away by the blue energy. Starrk used Sonido and appeared a good distance away. He stared at the crater which had formed, now revealing an injured Hascwalth. He didn't look too happy, being injured by a Hollow must have angered him, or perhaps he was disappointed in himself.

The Balance looked up with anger in his eyes, but now reforming his broadsword. He lost his cool when his speed shocked Starrk, he had thought he had him all down.

Slash, clang, strike, pierce, and smash.

The four actions were performed by both, but Starrk felt something strange happen. He was forced to jump away, now losing the stalemate. But that only confused him further.

"Gran Rey Cero!" he yelled before shooting a grey beam of energy towards the blonde. He only held his sword outwards, but that was enough to slice the power into multiple directions.

Starrk had his eyes locked on the man, and they soon widened as the explosions were so minimal that they could be considered as regular Ceros.

'That's it! I know his power-'

STAB

"You were too late in figuring it out!" Haschlwath yelled as his blade pierced though his chest. The Primera instantly coughed up blood, cursing at himself as he was now in a drastic situation. Starrk forced himself off the blade and used Sonido to escape, but the Balance was not done with him just yet.

He saw the speed flash in the corner of his eye, then used his blade to slash to his right, but Haschwalth had the same idea.

BREAK

In a shocked expression, Starrk watched with widened eyes as his sword was split into two. The blonde formed a neutral expression as he realized what he had just done. The Primera saw the end of his blade leave the body, then falling off to the side next to him.

SLASH

Another painful erupted was sent to Starrk's brain when a gush of blood trailed across his body. The man was sent down to the ground, falling unconscious from the amount of blood which had splattered all over the area around him

'Damn…' was what he told himself as his eyes close. Yet again, the Primera faced another staggering defeat by the hands of the enemy. The Espada had so much hype for him, and he felt saddened on letting them down. 'Let me up again…I promise next time…' he couldn't finish. His mind shut down and so did his spirit.

As the Grandmaster began to walk away, a figure sprung out of his shadow. "Hascwalth-sama," A soldat said as he kneeled on the ground. The Balance ordered the soldat to speak, "His Majesty has already finished the invasion in Soul Society.

The blonde widened his eyes, "Already!?" he asked, baffled by the amount of time that has already passed since they first arrived in the Hollow world. 'It feels like time goes faster here.' he told himself before turning back to face the messenger soldat.

"Alright... it seems I have no choice then. We could run the risk of being counter-attacked from behind. This will upset everyone... but I have to do it." he said. The soldat nodded and fell back into the shadow. The reason why the Sternritter was so quick to answer was because that was a direct message from Yhwach himself, and he did not want to go against him, especially during this situation.

Soul Society

The once great Soul Society which ruled over the soul realm was now in a state of chaos. Never in anyone's afterlives did they imagine such destruction could occur within such a small amount of time. And to think it was an enemy hiding right under their noses. The ancient buildings and architecture were shattered to pieces, beyond repair. It would take a very long time to repair the buildings, and a lot of effort. However, the amount of casualties were the greatest shock to everyone. They knew their enemies and strength, but to witness so many low-class Shinigami perish was greatly confusing. This was their homeland, there world, and it taken before their eyes. The greatest pain to everyone was not the defeat, but the death of their beloved leader, Yamamoto Genryūsai Shigekuni, who was by far one of the greatest Shinigami to ever live in existence of Soul Society. He, alongside Yachiru Unohana, were the last standing members of the original Gotei 13. He founded everything here today, and to see him die so quickly was the utmost moral-crushing, spirit-destroying thing the enemy could have possibly done.

Everyone had a small hole in there heart as the death of that man reached everyone's ears. Some even witnessed it, like his subordinate Kyoraku Shunsui, who was like a son to him. He became the Captain-Commander of Soul Society after his passing, as no one else seemed to fit the entire criteria. He would have recommended others, but most of them are in critical condition from there battles against the Quincy.

Right now everyone had gathered together to discuss the oncoming events. Only the Vice-Captain and Captain showed up, with the exception of a few who were in serious condition.

"Well, the Royal Guard should come...hopefully." said the new Captain-Commander. It was probably the worst thing to hear, that they may not get help from the superior chain of power. Soul Society needed every single hand they could receive now. "How are the conditions, Retsu?" he asked. Everyone redirected there attention over to the Medic Captain.

She nodded, "These are the names of those who are in critical conditions and were defeated," she said before looking down at her clipboard

"Captain Kuchiki Byakuya,"

"Captain Sui-Feng,"

"Captain Sajin Komamura,"

"Captain Zaraki Kenpachi,"

"Vice-Captain Kuchiki Rukia,"

"Vice-Captain Abarai Renji,"

"Vice-Captain Rangiku Matsumoto,"

"Vice-Captain Shuhei Hisagi,"

"Vice-Captain Izuru Kira,"

Kyoraku sighed and continued listening to the names which were listed. He didn't want to acknowledge that he was in a bit of a bad situation, but it was quite obvious. "For starters, Yhwach left because he had assumed the Royal Guard were coming, so even he fears them. I want everyone to recover, and then come meet here later for their coming. But be prepared, they won't help us directly, but will give us the necessary resources to defeat the Quincy." he announced loudly. Everyone was surprised by his serious tone and leadership, they all nodded and returned towards their respective barracks. He turned his back, "What is it, Retsu?" he asked looking over his shoulder.

"It is time." she replied in a low tone.

He lowered his eyes, "Time for what? What are you talking about?" he asked, pretending not to know.

"Zaraki... he will be the one to get us out of this mess. It should have always been from the beginning, we were just being selfish and relied on the strengths of others. He killed a few Sternritter on his own, but was defeated by Yhwach. And that's only because we locked his strength. Now is the time to reveal his true potential. You can't talk me out of this." she stated sternly. Kyoraku eyes softly went down. Unohana has been in his life since he was a boy, almost in a mother-like figure, always showing him the right path when Yamamato was busy.

He eventually raised his eyes, "Alright... you will be the one to train Zaraki Kenpachi for their next attack. I hope you know what you are doing." he finally replied, causing her to smile. She knew it must be hard for him to accept what is to come, but it was necessary, and she feels that she cannot do much for the Soul Society any longer.

'Still… I can't believe Yhwach joined the fight.'

Flashback…

The 8th Captain found himself staring into the eyes of his elderly opponent. The man was around in late 40's with grey hair and glasses. He seemed to very arrogant as well.

"You seem to be rather calm." Robert Accutrone said.

Kyoraku raised a brow, "Am I supposed to go amok?" he questioned. The Sternritter wasn't amused with the joke. He pulled out a pistol and pointed it at the captain.

"What I meant was, once your boss is gone, ours will join in on the slaughter. It is only fair, as it would be the same vice versa." He replied tonelessly. Shunsui remained neutral, but knew if that was the case, things would get bad.

He wasn't around during the war against the Quincy. Only Unohana and Yamamato himself are the only ones alive since those times. There wasn't much information still around, and the Commander never liked talking about it. He only hoped everything died with it, but that is no longer the case.

"You all wish to seek vengeance from the war?"

"More than that." The man replied. Kyoraku knew he wasn't going to explain the entire motive behind the attack, so asking again wasn't going to get him anywhere. But as he tried thinking of possible answers, a sudden spike in heat and reiatsu alarmed everyone.

The captain got up and lowered his eyes, "Don't think everything you'll win this just because you caught us off guard. We aren't the only forces in this world."

"And you don't think we know that? Everything has been planned for so many years, our boss is a God. One who had born without knowing that fact, it only took a few years for him to gather this Empire. We have our secret weapons, and you have yours."

Before Shunsui could reply, a sudden cooling in the air caught his eyes. He looked over and widened his eyes as Yhwach raised above Yamamto, his mighty sword raising high in the air. The Shinigami panicked and quickly ran over, his superb Shunpo kept Robert from being able to chase him, even in his Vollstandig.

BOOM

"YAMAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-JI!"

And with the death of Yamamto, the rest of the Shinigami suffered with the attacks as Yhwach personally came into the fight against the beings he knew he could over power.

End Flashback…

'Now we just have to wait.' The new Captain-Commander said to himself.

Cang

Cang Du surprisingly had a tough time battling out against the numerous Fraccione, but its' not like it's going easy for them either. The man swiftly dodged the high speed attacks from Ggio Vega, who was surely the strongest one among the entire fighting force. He had always surprised and took down Nirgge Parduoc, even sending the man in his resurrection form away from the fight. But the whole point of this was not to kill, but to capture. And they wanted numbers, not really caring about their individual strength.

Only one last Fraccione remained in front of him, and that was probably the strongest one. Ggio Vega stood with a lowered expression, but wasn't worried on his comrade's conditions.

"Bite off… Tigre Estoque!" he uttered before glowing reiatsu coated his body. The Iron watched as his performance transformed from the human like, to more of a wavy tiger design. Fur grew down his limbs and onto his legs, he truly looked like a mixture between human, hollow, and a tiger. His weaponry hadn't changed much, still having the blades in a similar fashion to where Cang had his claws.

The Asian-looking man already released his Vollstandig and had the edge. Ggio just couldn't pierce his skin, even in his resurrection. "Cero!" he uttered before the magenta colored energy came beaming out of his palm.

Cang formed a reishi serpent claw and launched towards the cero, but he surprisingly lost the clash. The man heard the buzzing sound of Sonido, but only in smirked.

SHOCK

"GAAAH!" The black-haired tiger yelled as his body collapsed to the sand. He watched with one eyes as a busty green-haired Sternritter came walking over with had palm open. Small electric bolts streamed through her fingers, and he knew she was the one to cause his defeat.

Beside him a man having some sort of strange haircut and glasses. He seemed to be happy to have already gathered so many potential soldiers for the Wandenreich empire.

"Why the hell wasn't I allowed to fight?" Candice protested. Quilge specifically had her stay back and wait with him, as she was supposed to keep the Arrancar pinned and unable to escape as they were carried back to Silbern.

"I'm not to explain it again. Soldat! Take these Arrancar!" he ordered with authority. The poor soldat didn't even nod, just did as told as if they had real choice. "We already made past our goals…but I'm sure Haschwalth knows." The Jail said with thought in his mind. There were too many battles right now, and they were originally supposed to pull out and retreat once the other battle also went successful.

Haschwalth then ordered soldat to carry Kurosaki out of the battle, the man wished he could have seen his fight. He looked around and witnessed the small clashing between everyone. He didn't want to send everyone back In the middle of battle, but he knew he had no choice. Yhwach was already finished in Soul Society, and if they continue hear, then there is a strong chance of them getting flanked. The Balance turned around and saw the Sternritter who were already finished with their battles.

Gerard stood motionless, only awaiting orders. Quilge and Candice remained side by side next to BG9. Those three were the capturing squad, they would jail, shock, and take information out of the bodies before sending them back into Silbern. Cang also stepped in, but he too looked bored.

'It seems I have no choice.' He told himself before walking towards Bambietta. "Wait until everyone retreats, then, you will end this." He ordered.

"Fuck you." She replied in a low tone.

The blonde looked over, "What's your problem?"

"Why the hell are we leaving in the middle of battle!? And now I have to show everyone my powers!?" she yelled.

"Why are you concerned? I figured you were a type of woman who loved showing herself off…" he trailed

She lowered her eyes, " Better watch what you say…" she threatened in a dark tone. The man sighed and began creating shadow portals. Everyone's current Sternritter was then eclipsed as they came in contact with something solid. Even Ichigo fell through the ground, the soldat could barely carry him.

"Wait a minute! Wait the hell a minute! Don't tell me were pulling back!?" Bazz said as he faces the opposite side. The fighting arrancar were surprised to see them retreat, even if they felt they were wining.

"His Majesty is already done with the fight in Soul Society, we must retreat for now. Our mission was to capture arrancar, and that is what we have done. But do not fret, it's not like we aren't coming back." He explained. Many cursed at him, it was like throwing away your pride by running away so easily.

'Soul Society!?' Ichigo said to himself. He understood now what this was all about, a war in vengeance against the Soul Society. He doesn't forget important facts like things like this. Even if his density rivals many other males. Right now Ichigo remained neutral, but it was hard to do. He knew Haschwalth was looking at him, as if wanting to see his expression on how he would handle it. After all, the blonde was always suspicious on Ichigo.

"Just push them and end this. I'm not going to say it again." He ordered once more. The Sternritter were annoyed and began walking back, only Giselle and Ichigo remained now.

"Watch Berry! This is where Bambi-chan fucks shit up!" The Zombie with sparkles glittering in her eyes. Ichigo carefully watched, but his attention was distracted when Giselle leaned onto him and used him as a support.

…

…

…...

"Quincy: Vollständig." She uttered tonelessly. Ichigo's eyes widen when a pillar of reiatsu released from her body, creating a column of energy that ended in a large Quincy cross. She had developed larges wings and a star-like halo floating above her head. The appearance was breathe taking, and even he had to admit she truly looked like a Goddess.

The Sternitter looked over to the two, she even gained some slight redness as Ichigo unintentionally gawked at her. She was also feeling uncomfortable as Giselle began placing her hands towards her womanhood. She flew into the air and lowered her eyes at the charging Espada. Her wings sprung out and began launching down hundreds of reishi spheres, the number changing into the thousands as she enhanced it.

The spheres crashed into everything, causing massive explosions which affected all of the arrancar. No hierro managed to defend itself as their bodies were slammed by the spheres. The more intelligent Espada knew getting hit by them from the beginning would be bad, so they were alright.

Over in the distance…

On the opposite side of Las Noches, one elite Sternritter and the King of Hueco Mundo made simple battle clashes without either gaining the advantage. Baraggan was annoyed by how much of a ranged fighter Pernida Parnkgjas was, and he could not come into slashing distance. Sternritter 'C' was also annoyed, seeing how throwing buildings and dead arrancar wasn't working.

He looked around and awaited something to come, but he soon flinched when a massive explosion sprung out of the Fortress. He turned his head and saw one of his comrades flying in there like an Angel, she alone was keeping the entire force back with her power.

He used his Compulsory to grab a load of spheres and fused them together. He eventually created one giant reishi sphere ball and launched it at the Espada, who was just as surprised to see the spheres suddenly move out of place.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM

The elite Sternritter had an evil grin under his hood as he witnessed the man descend to the ground. Neither used full power, but the Elite knew Baraggan was dangerous. Too dangerous, and he himself could be considered a special war power.

Back on the other side…

Giselle made passionate moans as her mind shriveled in tenseness. Ichigo didn't even notice, he just watched as Bambietta destroyed everyone with her surprising power. He couldn't deny how terrifying she was, and how much this power in front of him fits her personality well.

Eventually after numerous more strikes, she returned back to her normal state and walked over. Her eyes caught with Ichigos and the two had a long moment of silence together. "Hahh….I…came so much…." Giselle suddenly said. "Carry me…" she said. Ichigo nodded and picked her up bridal style.

"Don't act like you weren't doing the same thing she was. I saw you look up my skirt!" the Explosion accused. She couldn't hold it in, she just had to tease me. It was just something people naturally did, Ichigo was one of those type of people.

"S-Shut up…" he replied.

Las Noches

The Espada were lucky the fortress of Las Noches repaired itself, otherwise they would have to look for a new home. However, their wounds surely didn't regenerate like the walls did. Bambietta single handily calmed the intense raging battle which just her Vollstandig alone, and even that wasn't used to the fullest. Her reishi orbs caught everyone off guard, even her fellow Sternritter. They never would have imagined her power could be so devastating. Despite this, she was for some reason not invited into Yhwach's Elite Sternritter. But it's not like she wasn't feared or respected, everyone showed some sort of reverence. Ichigo was amazed by it, she truly looked like a Goddess in that form. Standing above everyone, wings out just dropping bombs, literally.

Halibel was the only intact top Espada, so she immediately took charge while the other two had to rest. All of Baraggan's Fraccione were captured, so she had to order Grimmjow to take his body back to his palace. He luckily survived by his intense speed, but still hated the fact of running away. Even he had to admit he was underestimating the woman.

Right now everyone was in the Espada conference room, except they were missing quite a few soldiers.

Halibel,

Grimmjow,

Aaroniero,

Rudborrn,

and Szayel.

These five were the last remaining Espada who were currently conscious and could fight now. Starrk was in his palace, sleeping beside his broken blade. Baraggan was also remaining in his palace, conscious and injured. Nel was still missing, but her Fraccione remained in her palace for further orders. Dordoni was defeated and was residing in the Quinto Palace, as Nnoitra was still MIA to everyone. Yammy was captured by Gerard, no one even heard his release.

"I see... we have failed." Rudborrn noted sadly.

"Shut up, they ran like cowards. We totally had that battle." Grimmjow spoke out, annoyed by his comrades instant assumption that they were defeated.

Halibel sighed, "For whatever reason, they retreated. And I'm sure they'll be back, they did come for a reason. My Fraccione were captured but we must remain our cool...DO YOU GET IT!? THEY TOOK MY FRACCIONE, BUT WE STILL MUST REMAIN COOL AND FIGURE OUT A PLAN! YOU GET IT NOW, YOU WORTHLESS ANIMALS!?"

Her intense yelling obviously came from the emotional impact of her beloved Fraccione being taken without much of a fight put up. She could only hope that they all unite together in Silbern and find a way to escape and return back to Hueco Mundo. No one bothered calming her down, as knowing it's probably not worth it and risk the notion of dying.

…

"So? What the hell do we do then?" The Sexta finally asked.

"Worst case scenario, they come tomorrow." The Octava said. Everyone tilted their heads, wondering if that's such a possibility. "I mean it's obvious, we're weakened, and one of us is having an emotional breakdown." he added in, hoping they would consider it.

"Oh yea, Szayel-sama, how did you live? I was so sure that girl had killed you..." Rudborrn asked suspiciously, now wondering if his pink-haired comrade could be a potential spy.

The man simply laughed, "Oh Rudbornn, you really think that girl could kill me? I was simply getting an analysis on her powers. I knew she was unique from the moment she got here. I figured out a lot, but I'll share that later on."

Halibel sighed, "Yes, you go do that. How is the Hogyoku working for you, Rudborrn?" she asked, now calm once more. But inside she's seriously having a panic attack. Just a few hours without her Fraccione is causing her to slowly have a mental breakdown.

"It works perfectly. I feel like if things go south, I'll join the fight. And I believe I can have a huge difference." he replied honestly. The orb would possible work better with someone else, but his unique abilities still make him a crucial part in the entire battlefield.

"I see…in the meantime, prepare for the battle tomorrow." Halibel ordered.

Silbern

In the massive coliseum of Silbern, the Sternritter gathered together and sat down before there Majesty and his right hand man. Despite many worshiping his Majesty, a few didn't care for what was going on and would rather just go back to their rooms. Ichigo sat in the back, alongside his group of females and some other guys around them. Meninas had a problem of staring, and it was very noticeable. Right now she kept tugging at him, hoping to gain his attention. When he felt composed to look over, she would smile. The affection she gave was not returned. He would be forced to turn red and awkwardly look away, but she kept going.

Right now it was just Quilge, Ichigo, Bambietta, Giselle, Meninas, Candice, Liltotto, Cang, and Bazz.

"And so I smacked the crap out of that red-haired monkey, you should have seen his face!" NaNaNa Najakoop says before making a big laugh. Cang sighed and Bazz dropped his interested expression. "So, what happened to you?" The 'U' asked.

Bazz annoying looked over, "My fight was cut like the rest of the people. Apparently were looking for numbers rather than stronger ones. Dumbass Jugo thought we'd get our asses handed, and I was winning mine!" The Heat replied.

'Red haired monkey?' Ichigo said to himself. He knows a guy who has red hair and is described as a monkey.

"Yea, and Äs Nödt completely destroyed his captain." He added in, causing Ichigo to widen his eyes. But before he could ask on what the hell they were talking about, a voice rang out, silencing everyone.

"Silence! His Majesty approaches." Haschlwalth said. Everyone closed their mouths and looked over, but Yhwach was not alone with him.

"Fellow Sternritter, our prevail is going beyond our original plan. I am proud to have you all as comrades and subordinates. But I know eventually my time will be over, but do not be upset."

People started wondering where he was going with this, and those who did already knew what he was going to say. Since Haschwalth was right next to him, he was going to announce his successor, which was the Balance himself...obviously...

"…As from this moment, I name my successor…

…Uryu Ishida!"

…Or not…

"WHAT!?

"THE FUCK?"

"Who the hell is he?"

"He's not even good looking…"

"Looks like weak shit to me!"

"He has the appearance of a villain!"

"Come on guys, it's obviously a joke."

"Even I would have never imagined something like this."

The Balanced was forced to yell out and silence the constant yelling, he knew they would get this kind of reaction. No one expected a four eyed high school boy to be the successor of the Almighty Emperor of Quincy.

"Everyone… calm down." Haschwalth ordered. Bazz and Bambietta lowered their voices, but both internally angry over the idea to pick some random Quincy over the entire list of Sternritter.

Or in Bambietta's case, the number one special war potential.

Ichigo was just as shocked as anyone else, but he kept his reaction down. He did not want any special attention onto him, but inside, he was panicking. Why the hell would Ishida come here? Perhaps to save him, or that he was tricked into coming because Ichigo was captured. But the look on the Quincy's eyes said otherwise. The orange-haired teen had to get some alone time with his friend, but knew he would be very busy with Yhwach.

For now he needed some time to himself, so that's just what he did. As everyone kept rambling on how pissed off they are, Ichigo managed to sneak away. Liltotto saw him, but didn't rat him out. He's one of the few people who isn't a barbaric in her mind.

Ichigo's Quarters

The orange-haired teen sat peacefully on the edge of the sofa. He had escaped the constant rambling and annoyances by the girls and guys. It's not like he was trying to mean to the obsessive Meninas, it's just he needed time to think and develop a plan. Ichigo is obviously stressed out, as desperately as he wants to just go out and kill Yhwach right now, it would be an obvious suicide. He also had no back up, and he isn't sure if his closest female friends would bother even joining him.

He would need to train, but the second invasion happens tomorrow. The plan was to finish them off in Hueco Mundo, and then head over to Soul Society, but Ichigo knew something was off with the plan.

After training, he would need to gather allies. It was hard to tell who was the most loyal to Yhwach, and those who just go because they were forced to or joined because they had nothing better to do. He could assume fighting was one of the main motivations Yhwach used to gather people. He would first want to bring his female crew, not because they all seemed to have affection, but he's grown attached. They don't seem to express their loyalty often to Yhwach that often. In fact, he's never seen them go crazy about the Quincy King.

Before Ichigo could add more to his thoughts, his eyes see a pair of feet rest on his lap. They were covered by black leggings, which reached just below the figures knees. He trailed past the leggings and saw the smooth vanilla skin, followed by a white skirt. After his slow eyes finally checked out everything, they lock onto Bambietta's.

He awkwardly looked away and rubbed the back of his head, clearly wishing it was someone else other than the Explode. Her eyes were lowered and her arms were crossed. "Massage." She ordered. Ichigo ignored the command, he still had some dignity in him. He certainly was no pushover.

"No! I'm trying to figure something that..." he ended of trailing more than anticipated.

"Please?" she asks this time. Her tone was soft and more polite, but he couldn't spend any time with her right now. All Ichigo wants is some time by himself, but of course he sounds like the jerk for refusing the request. Even if he uses the nicest tone possible, he will still sound like Bazz for declining.

"I just need to think…" he ended off trailing. He sighed, 'Think...Think...Think...Think!' he yelled to himself. He grabbed his hair in frustration, and continued telling himself to come up with a plan. While Ichigo argued with himself, Bambietta changed her expression from deadpanned, to angry.

"Oh..." she replied. That 'Oh' wasn't just an 'Oh,' it was more of her accusing him of something. Bambietta is Ichigo's first serious relationship, even if the two are confused about it, so he doesn't know the downsides of being in a relationship with someone like her, who was always suspicious and very jealous at times. However, even in the normal relationship, Bambietta stands out among the woman.

Ichigo was deep in thought, but she didn't want to leave. She thought of a plan and crawled over towards him. He didn't even realize she was up in his face until her lips were in full view of his eyes. He flinched back and pushed her away, but only because he was surprised.

"Oi...c'mon..." he said. Ichigo was a bit annoyed, but it's not like he was going to say that to her face. And she knew that.

"Oh, so I can't come close, but when Meni or Gigi do it you're just okay with it?" she asked with an accusing glare. He became red over the memories of Giselle and Meninas tightly clinging onto him. They just so happened to rub various body parts against Ichigos own, and it was worse because he didn't really know what to say.

"No...they...I...no...ya...but...not."

He was always good with words.

She stared blankly, not feeling amused yet. "So you don't...?" she kept using tricks, but he was just hoping she would drop the whole thing. He nodded, "So you were thinking about me then?" she added in. Ichigo's mind was literally being shut down right now. He is so confused it wasn't even funny.

Eventually, the answer he found came to appease her. "...Yes." he answered without really thinking. She became surprised, but soon grinned in victory. Before she could respond, Ichigo felt that something else was important. "You know, I was kind of worried for you when you were fighting Grimmjow." he said softly. His head was turned, hoping she wouldn't see the soft look in his eyes.

She smiled, "Yea I know, your stare was getting pretty damn creepy." she replied with a small laugh. Ichigo smiled too, but was really glad to see her make it out. "What? That Espada ain't nothing compared to me, or you!" she said proudly.

"You're going to fight him again?" Ichigo asked tonelessly.

"Hell yea! We have unfinished business, not everyone finished like you." she answered arrogantly. "But... I'll make sure to make it quick, if you're that worried." she assured him. He finally smiled again and nodded, happy to know she will try and end the fight quickly. It's not like he thought she was weak, it's just Grimmjow is full of surprises and can come back whenever he is at a disadvantage. She faced him again, and he naturally turned red. Bambietta then closed her eyes and moved forward, and he did the same.

The two made a long kiss before pulling back. It was one of those which made Sternritter 'E' feel a bit queasy inside, like something was lightly tapping her heart. Ichigo had the same reaction, except his was a lot stronger. He had a natural tendency to become attached to people, but this special occasion goes beyond the normal friend-zone. This was far different, as if there was no barrier like he does with friends.

"You know Bambietta... I'm really glad I met you..." he suddenly said with a loving smile. The look in his eyes and the smile he had made her tense up. She even gained a slight bit of red herself.

"Y-yea and? A lot of people are happy they met me." she replied in a cocky tone. He knew she was just joking, but she wanted to say something herself. "I'm happy to have met you too..." she replied very quietly. He heard it. "Just don't go dying on me, alright? I saw you barely beat that guy. Cause' if you do, I'll...I'll...I'll do something!" she threatened. The look in her eyes didn't go unnoticed. They were filled with worry, sadness, happiness, love, and fear. "And I heard what kind of guy you are, so don't ever think of saving the world again. Even if you lose your powers, and especially if you lose your life, got it? You and I fight so we don't die, not because we choose to."

'Is that the brainwash crap Yhwach uses?' The teen told himself with lowered eyed. Bambietta swears Ichigos eyes suddenly turned yellow for a moment. She decided to ignore it as a loud yawn came from her mouth, she then rested her head on Ichigo and closed her eyes.

"I'm tired from using my Vollständig, sleep with me." She said calmly. Ichigo now knew for a fact, that he could not just pack up and leave this place by himself. He wrapped his arms around and kissed the top of her head. "You know Ichigo…I uh…"

"Hm?" he groaned.

"You and I are uh… I'm glad you're here." She admitted. "Even if you go out of your way to piss me off." Ichigo firmly stated he does not do anything to try and upset her. "I know…but you do know what I'm saying right?"

"Nope, have no clue." He answered bluntly. She looked at him with annoyed eyes, he clearly was pretending. "What?"

"C'mon…don't make me say it…" she pleaded. Ichigo tilted his head as if truly not knowing what she is talking about. But in reality, he had a pretty good guess of what she wanted to say, but just couldn't.

Ichigo finally gave in, "Yea, I know." He finally said.

"S-So…?"

"So what?" he mocked.

"Aren't you going to say it?"

"Why would I say it, if you can't?" he questioned.

"I hate you."

Inside, she panicked. The stories of Ichigo is also about self-sacrifice, something she loathed. Breaking into Soul Society to save one already dead soul, and then doing the same in Hueco Mundo. Losing everything he's worked for to defeat Aizen. She hates those types of people. But that's only because most of them don't make it out the end.

"I love you too."

The words snapped her out of the bad thoughts, they were then placed with nothing but happiness. Butterflies filled her stomach, and she was trying to hide her tears from Ichigo. She had her pride, after all. Ichigo purposely didn't want to embarrass any further, so he closed his eyes and peacefully stroked her hair. He didn't care about anything anymore, he only slept a peaceful slumber with the person who means the most to him right now.

The next day…

A group of Sternritter stood out from everyone else and awaited their orders. Candice and Liltotto were a part of this group and were surprised to not see the rest of their little team of females.

"Ah, there's the hero. To be honest, I thought you were the one who Yhwach was going to choose." Askin says as Ichigo walks up to them with his hand intertwined with Bambietta's.

"Yea… that was fucking bullshit." The Explode said. Ichigo was pretty damn pissed off that Askin managed to turn Bambietta's mood into an aggressive one once again. She released her grasp on Ichigo and went to go chat with someone else. Ichigo was then approached by some strange figures, and they seemed excited to see him.

"Well! The love king himself!" a loud voice said. Ichigo looked at the large dark-skinned man with a neutral gaze, something telling him this fellow Quincy was off. "PePe Waccabrada, Sternritter Love!" he introduced happily.

"No one wants your disgusting habits here, Pepe." a low voice called from the side. Ichigo was a little annoyed by the amount of people who came and introduced themselves, like, who the hell are they? Why should he know them?

He felt different now, ever since he became close with Bambietta.

"Loyd Lloyd, Stenritter 'Y'." he introduced. Ichigo nodded politely, as the man did give him the genuine respect.

The three had chatted together, with the two Sternritter explaining on how things went down in Soul Society. Only two people in Soul Society who Ichigo was truly concerned with, and that's only because one of them is the reason why he was here now. Rukia was not mentioned, so he sighed in relief. As for the rest, he had grown to ignore the fact they are struggling. He doesn't just forget things over night, he still had that hate inside him, the hate that Soul Society abandoned him and ignored his mother during the time of her death.

He's just been quiet. Luckily for his own sanity, there were people who managed to take his mind off the topic.

Yhwach entered the room alongside Haschwalth, but there was no Ishida. He no longer gazed upon Ichigo, as if the orange-haired Shinigami meant nothing to him any longer. Uryu seemed to have overcome his interest, but that's good for Ichigo.

"The time is almost here, but it won't mean much later on. We have progressed much further than expected! But after Soul Society, I expect all of you to hold your own against the next coming forces." He said, letting the words sink in.

"This next invasion will be our biggest, some Sternritter from the ones who were sent to Hueco Mundo will be used in this one as well. We will eradicate these Shinigami, and then all meet up for the next phase."

"These Sternritter will head to Soul Society…

Sternritter 'C'

Sternritter 'D'

And Sternritter M." he finished. Yhwach's decision was to pull the elite out of Hueco Mundo and place them into Soul Society. Despite not losing many Sternritter so far, he knew the Royal Guard would be coming.

"Sternritter 'E' 'G' 'H' 'I' 'J' 'K' 'P' 'T' and 'Z' will eradicate the remaining Hollows. We no longer need them anymore; we'll have plenty once we fully capture Las Noches. But once the main force is defeated, return to Silbern." He explained. Many saluted the man while Ichigo stared blankly, he had to come up with a little plan for now.

Hueco Mundo: Second Invasion

The selected group arrived in the sandy world of Hueco Mundo once again, except they were missing several important figures. This time around, it was just the Sternritter and Ichigo. There were also no Elite Sternritter, for whatever reason they were sent to Soul Society to assist in the second invasion over there. Hashwalth also went, so the person in charge of this invasion was Quilge himself. The Jail had no problem with that, even if his fellow comrades never recognized him for anything. Their mission this time was to just kill the Arrancar leaders, as they already have enough to force into recruitment.

Ichigo wasn't complaining about anything, he only kept all his thoughts on his lover. They held hands the same way they did in Karakura town, expect this time both acknowledging it. The other girls had been surprised to see Ichigo so fazed by the new emotion which ran his body.

Yes, they were quite jealous.

"Pssh, what happened between carrot top and loud mouth?" Bazz whispered quietly. After seeing Bambietta's true power yesterday, he developed some form of respect, even if it was very little. He had to admit he had no current powers to counter her explosions.

Candice looked over, "I don't know, but something did. Ichigo would never do her, he's too pure and delightful, and he seems like the type of guy to ignore a girl like Bambietta if she came onto him. She probably tricked him or something." The Thunderbolt replied, hoping that one of her theories were true.

'Hmmmmmmmmm,'Giselle mumbled to herself as she pays close attention to the Explode's face. Her female interest has a peculiar smile on today, but it's different from the previous ones. It's like she had a sudden weight lifted off her shoulders, and her body seemed less tense and more relaxed. Giselle is probably the only person other than Ichigo to see that smile up close, as she is the only one other than Ichigo who has had intimate relations with Bambietta.

"Ohhhhhhhh!" The Zombie yelled, now realizing what occurred between the two.

Everyone who was interested looked over, "What? You come up with something?" Candice asked with a lowered expression.

"Yup!"

...

"Well, what the hell is it?" Bazz asked impatiently.

"Not going to tell." she replied quickly. Everyone sighed at the annoying fellow Sternritter. She was always known to do things like this, but they did not give up, they still chatted amongst themselves about the two, hoping to figure out some clues as to what had happened. Ichigo and Bambietta didn't seem to mind, or rather knew what was going on in the first place. They just walked together as if nothing was around them, and together they were leading each other into the future with smiles.

"Here, now everyone line up!" 'J' ordered, but no one even listened. They all walked out together and slightly widened there eyes. Las Noches looks a bit different... a bit more rubble-like than an impressive fortress. In the middle of it's great walls, an enormous hole stood in the center, revealing the interior. What confused everyone was how this hole was created. This was obviously caused by Bambietta's explosions, but what was so strange is that she expelled a larger portion of power compared to how much was shown.

"I thought the walls fixed themselves." Cang said aloud. No one really knew if it really did, they didn't spend much time watching the wall, they only kept their gazes on their enemies.

"That's what I saw, but maybe with enough power, it removes it's ability to repairs itself." The Glutton noted. She was by far the most intelligent one there, and the one who observes everything.

It was so quiet for the Sternritter and Ichigo. It was far too quiet. The only sound was the wind blowing away, and even that startled some. Quilge had to be in front, he just had to be. Him showing no fear would make his fellow comrades respect him in that sense. Except, nobody really cared and just hoped to get through this already. Ichigo felt something weird crawl up his spine when he walked over this particular area of the sand, it feels so nostalgic. 'White...' he told himself. But his eyes shot open when he realizes what had happened the last time his friends were in this spot.

"Wait! Quilge step back!" Ichigo yelled.

"I don't take order from a nobo-"

The man couldn't finish his sentence, everyone watched as an enormous gray-sand like body emerged from the sands. It was colossal, the sizes couldn't even be compared. "I've been revived!" he yelled at the top of his lungs. No one wanted to stay and fight this monstrosity, so Quilge had to force someone else to do it.

"Cang, kill this thing." he ordered. "The rest follow me." he added in. Everyone met up with his Hirenkyaku, all successfully managing to succeed past Runuganga.

Cang nodded and sighed, he knew it would be difficult to fight this thing with his small weapons alone.

Everyone else moved along, and now there were only eight of them. They approached the immense crack in the wall and peak there heads out.

BASH

An oncoming onslaught of Calaveras ran through the eight Quincy as if they were nothing, but soon were back to being blown away. They all used Hirenkyaku to step back and scan the area for there attacks, but they had met them instead. Bazz looked up and locked eyes with Halibel. Liltotto and Meninas lowered there eyes at the traitorous Quincy, Alios Laurenz. Bambietta grinned at the sight of Grimmjow, who had a ferocious expression on his face. Giselle widened her eyes at Szayel, she had thought she killed the man, but she happily smiled once again, now knowing she has the chance again to add him to her collection.

"Kurosaki, find and eliminate whoever is causing these foot soldiers to appear!" Quilge commanded. The girls didn't like Ichigo being bossed around, but knew they were going to be a problem. "I'll stay back and await your confirmed battles. Either bring them to me for judgment or execute them on your own."

With that, everyone went off to their anticipated battles. They sadly didn't settle things in the first invasion, so now is where they will make up for that. No Hascwalth, no Yhwach, and no one really cares about listening to Quilge. So no matter what happens, the fights will go through.

Bazz

Here it is: the Heat vs the Water Shark Empress. Bazz couldn't even sleep last night, he was so eager to stomp and dominate Halibel with all his might. However, that anticipation let him at a disadvantage. He was so eager for this that he wouldn't keep his cool, something Halibel is proficient at. She was ready to kill, she wanted to kill, but she knew keeping her cool and a having a calm attitude would give her the edge. She knows Bazz has a weakness at being calm, so she used that to the fullest.

"Yo, sorry I had to leave yesterday. Did ya miss me?" he asked with a smirk.

Halibel kept her eyes lowered, "Were you that terrified of me?" she asks in return. Bazz raised in reiatsu in anger, he was in no way afraid of her. He wasn't afraid of anyone. "No need to get all worked up, you might mess your hair up." she added in, literally adding more fuels to the flame.

"Heh... you should watch yourself. You might get burned for it." he said slowly, keeping his eyes out of view. He raised his reiatsu beyond what she had though he could be capable of doing. It was immense and hot, but being a water user, she could control her body temperature with ease.

"You really are unstable. It fits you perfectly though. Your dull face, your weak powers, and that God awful mohawk."

Oh, she really did it now.

Bazz raised his hand, "Burning Finger!" he yelled loudly with rage. Halibel just barely managed to dodge a high-speed narrow beam of flaming hot power. In the blink of an eye she appeared just before Bazz, surprising him. The Sternritter was punched in the face once, followed by the Espada grasping his head and forcing it down, then slamming her knee into his face. Bazz's weakest point is his inability to calm down and evaluate the situation. Since he shot Halibel, his hands were focused in a gun-like fashion, meaning the Espada was easily able to take him down when he was preoccupied.

Bazz was able to escape her beating, but only saw her charging once more. He sent his power down towards his feet, where he stomped the ground in a violent fashion. Halibel widened her eyes when a pillar of flames erupted from his body. The pillar rose up to attack her, but she had been hoping her counter attack would be a success.

"Cero," she uttered before blasting the yellow energy towards the flames. Unfortunately for her, the intense flames managed to burn off some of her body. Since her attire exposed various parts of her body, she was not immune to the hot power.

Eventually Bazz regained himself and began shooting holy arrows with his crossbow-like spirit weapon. Harribel was an efficient Sonido use, so dodging wasn't a huge problem for her. While she did this, she had time to think and gather herself before moving forward. 'At this rate he'll be easy to take down. I just have to hope Grimmjow holds his own against that one girl. Her power is severe and caused huge damage last time. I must preserve my strength for her in case he fails.' she said to herself before focusing back onto Bazz.

She narrowed her eyes when Bazz points his finger at her once again, but this time she could tell he had two fingers out, rather than one. As expected, Bazz fired the beam.

BOOM

She turned around and witnessed an explosion, but not just a regular explosion. Sticky fire engulfed the fortress and nearby towers, it then sent them to ashes. A dangerous power, Halibel thought as she has to worry about that coming. 'Still, he had one finger revealed the first time he used that power. When he used two, this happened. So the more fingers, the more powerful?' she questioned herself.

She couldn't think anymore as Bazz once again raised his reiatsu. "Sorry cutie, but if this is all ya got, then this is over." he replied arrogantly. The blonde beauty watched as a sudden spiky halo appeared above his head. The man then got two sudden wings, each resembling thin rods.

"Quincy: Vollständig." he said in a low stone. "See! Ya see this!? This is power, this is how we're going kick the shit out of you!" Bazz then circulated more flames around him, the reishi was so authentic and perfect, that his flames were enhanced. He was able to ignite them in an odd pattern, but soon she realized that the flames above him were in the form of some dragon. His eyes softly lowered and his tone went rhetorical, "You really think, you can beat that?" he asked. "Just see if you can match me."

If Halibel wasn't such a serious, deliberate, and bound person, she would laugh. But this is no laughing matter, she had her precious Fraccione to rescue, and to kill this man who obviously thinks he's better than she is. She placed her sword downwards, "Destroy...Tiburon." she uttered. Everyone in the battlefield looked over and saw the immense pillar of yellow spiritual energy spring to the skies from her body. A sudden surge of water engulfed her as the yellow energy died down. Bazz narrowed his eyes at the sight of the water, fully aware that it's a massive counter to his flames.

Halibel emerged out from the water with a completely new appearance, and her full power being emitted. The Heat didn't feel like complimenting her power, seeing how it was so enormous and radiating. She wasn't supposed to use this form just yet, but she didn't want to underestimate Vollständing like she did against Shinigami Bankai. It didn't end up well for her last time.

"Ah... is that your resurrection or whatever they call it?" Bazz asked.

Halibel ignored his words and merely swing her enormous great sword, which was attached to her right hand. A surge of water struck down at an immense speed, causing Bazz to widen his eyes. "Burning Finger 2!" he yelled before firing off one of his more powerful attacks. The fire explosion and water collided, causing a rush of steam to run though. They canceled each other's powers out, which only made both grit their teeth. It's not good seeing your enemy counter your powers with their own because it makes it seem as if you're one the same power-level as they are. Bazz never wanted to be the same as his opponents, he always wanted to be at the top. Halibel hated the feeling of being in a stalemate, it got her killed before because her former leader thought she was weak from it. That nightmare still haunts her, but she will prove she was better.

Tia charged first, her massive sword ready for smashing and slashing. Bazz fired numerous Burning Fingers at her, but she was quick in her released state. The Third eventually got close and slashed, but he too was quick in that form. Bazz luckily didn't need to use his hands in order to gather reishi and covert it to fire. He attacked Halibel while fleeing away, but it's not like she was scared of flames. "Cascada!" she uttered, Bazz watched in the corner of his eyes as surges of water sprung out of her blade, successfully beating the flame reishi. She began firing more at Bazz, hoping to hit him once and eventually knock him down.

She infused her blade with Reiryoku, causing it to glow with a dark blue aura. Bazz watched in the corner of his eyes as Halibel slashed her blade outwards. But that's also when he felt the pain. Three blue coated projectiles slammed their way into his back, causing him to yell in agony. He turned around and began firing a Burning Finger, which she used Sonido to dodge. However, she did not expect him to be able to fire them in a rapid succession.

Tia felt the burning sensation when multiple 'Burning Finger's' made their way through her body. She used her giant sword as a shield, but Bazz then began shooting at her legs. The shark sword began to glow yellow, but he knew what kind of of condensed pressure that was. "Cero!" Halibel suddenly yelled before slashing out her blade. The Cero was wide, and he did not come out unscathed. This fight so far has just been counter attacks, but that's all she could do. Bazz was indeed strong.

Bazz emerged on the ground. He was bleeding on the right side of his face, and one of his wings had disintegrated into nothing. He luckily managed to use his heat powers as a shield, but still suffered damage. "La Gota!" he hears. The God-Hawked man swiftly dodges streams of water which seem to melt into the sand, but he was unaware of Halibels true plan.

The Sternritter turns around and points out his fingers, 'I need to get her on the ground!' he yelled to himself. "Burning Finger!" he yelled. The man kept switching off between 1, 2, and 3. It was difficult for Halibel to dodge the third one, as it literally melted the fortress into nothingness.

She finally fell to the ground, but this time she released a huge vortex-like surge of water. Bazz widened his eyes and released his third finger, but she couldn't see it behind the water. "La Gota!" she yelled once more. The intense pressure caused the water to rise up, as if now becoming more of a huge tsunami wave, easily 300 feet. Bazz internally panicked but soon gained everything he had for this one moment.

"There's no way... THERE'S FUCKING WAY I'M GOING TO LOSE!"

"BURNING FINGER 4!" he roared at the top of his lungs before a large flamed-ethereal blade with a cross guard formed. The power covered his entire right hand and wrist. Instead of slashing, he used his reishi to lung the blade forward, as if he was confident enough to ensure it would be pierce through the massive tidal wave. He kept yelling and tried shielding himself, but it was too late. Before the water crashed, he had to make sure he hit his opponent. The man's eyes loomed in the center of the wave, but soon widened when his blade managed to pierce through.

Despite going through the center, the wave kept on going. Its unique ability to filled itself, as if it was controlled by her will. However, he could still see through the wave, knowing that his Burning Finger 4 had smashed right into the Espada.

"Heh... gotcha'." he said to himself.

SPLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAASH

The water smacked down on the ground, splattering everywhere. It ravished through the sand, causing a few fighters to jump into the air to avoid its wrath. They didn't bother looking over or sending help to see if Bazz was okay, not like they really gave a damn. Plus, he would get very angry if someone came over and helped him, even if he was in danger.

Halibel was forced to release her resurrection. Sadly for her, she was hit by Bazz's most powerful attack. The reason why it was so devastating for her is because in her released form, her body was heavily revealed. Her brown skin suffered against the intense flames and was even burned against it. Not to mention she didn't expect an explosion. Either way, she was now limping towards her foe, which was lying on the wet sand. He still unaware of the true intention of her plan. The blonde fell to her knees and began coughing up blood, she was in no condition to move or to continue fighting.

Blood dripped from her head and abdomen, both suffering damage. 'I can't pass out... I have to kill each person here... even if I die...I...I have to...'She couldn't continue thinking, only now feeling the oncoming darkness as she closed her eyes.

Over where Bazz is...

The red-haired man had heavy breathes as he laid down on the sand. He had a petite smirk on his face as he can tell his opponent had collapsed just like he himself did. Sadly though, he knew she was alive and would be awake later on. Despite being conscious, he couldn't get up. The wave had crushed his limbs, most of his bones were shattered, and he knew that. 'So... neither died but they still took each other out? Heh, I'll take it.'he told himself before closing his eyes. But soon reopened when he felt his body getting lower and lower. 'Shit! What the hell!?' he yelled to himself. He sat up and looked around, sitting exactly where the spot where the water had crashed.

And where most of it was focused.

'No, No, No, No, NO!'

With immense pain, he brought himself up right, but he couldn't get up. He began to descend into the sand, where it was easily accessible through the water. 'That bitch added boiling water at the top because she knew it would break the sand down easier... what a dirty move! She planned this from the beginning!'

Quicksand, it was her trap. Since Bazz couldn't move his limbs, he wouldn't be able to stop himself from sinking. He was now at his chest, and kept getting lower. Trying to gather reishi without the use of limbs and just your head isn't something people can just do. It took immense focus and concentration, but he was willing to do that to not die. 'What the hell man, there's no way I'm going to die from sinking in a damn hole!' The area around him came to be much warmer. He successfully managed to heat the area up so much that the water evaporated. He got out of it, but there was still a problem.

His head was sticking out of the ground, and he was unable to move.

Now he had to hope no one would blindly hit him with something, as the most vulnerable part of his body was blatantly sticking out of the ground.

"…God damn it."

Silbern

In the lower levels of the reishi-created Quincy home, one Arrancar violently slams the walls in frustration. The man would not just give up and surrender, he would rather be tortured then give up his pride as an Arrancar. He even beat an Espada, and though it meant nothing to them, it meant he was fifth strongest being in Hueco Mundo. It sounds a lot better when you try and sugar-coat it.

"LET ME OUT OF HERE!" he yelled. His reiatsu was restricted by reishi created chains on his body, constantly sucked out his power like a machine.

PEW

A holy arrow bounced off his body and the black-haired man annoyingly turns around. "So, it isn't reiatsu based. Reiryoku is something that your body can do impassively, but requires immense training. Aizen's Espada were indeed strong, but look at you now."

"Fuck you, Lille. I'm going to murder your ass once I get out of here!" Nnoitra yelled. The two had become somewhat close, with the exception of the Espada hating the Quincy for constantly reminding him on how weak he is.

"More of your friends are coming. You can have your homosexual desires with them." He said. Nnoitra widened his eyes, but soon lowered once again. He forget he didn't give a damn about his fellow Arrancar.

"You're staying here, watching me, instead of killing Shinigami? Man, you're just ungrateful! Who the hell wouldn't go over there to kill some damn Shinigami." The Quinto said with distaste. "That one Shinigami…I'll kill him." He ended with a dark tone.

"I've killed many, what was the name of the one you want?"

"Zarachi Kenpachi."

The X-Axis raised his one eye open, "Special War Potential, eh? I didn't get to see him, but I blasted a bunch of people from his squad. I heard he was defeated by his Majesty, but we've been losing some guys somehow." Lillie replied.

"Tch, he'll slaughter you. Only I can even come close, and when I do, I'll rip him to shreds."

PEW

"Ow! You mother fuc-!"

"Shouldn't underestimate me, especially since I'm an elite. If you would just give up and allow us to 're-educate' you, then you'd be already deployed by tomorrow.

"Yea, right. When I'm out, you're the first on the fucking list. And then Shaz! And then girl!"

PEW

"You-!"

Hueco Mundo

The two female fighters stared down at their opponent, who just happened to be a Quincy. They knew he wasn't on Sternritter level, but had shown some professional skills in dodging and using Hirenkyaku. Alios Laurenz was there opponent, or otherwise known as Aaroniero Arruruerie. The seventh Espada held great pleasure in keeping his identity like this, it would confused them further. However, he has other powers besides the Quincy body. Liltotto made the first move by equipping her bow and charging forward. She was small and light, so the agility gave her the edge.

"Minnie, attack him when he tries to counter attack me." She instructed. Meninas nodded, but didn't understand. "Ugh! Hit him when he's not looking!" she stated once more, except a lot simpler. The Power nodded again and fell to the sidelines, waiting for the vantage pointed.

"Heilig Pfeil!"

"Heilig Pfeil,"

The two powerful holy arrows shot together, but worked in the Espada's favor. He had managed to counter a holy arrow with just as much power and force as a Sternritter possesses. 'I still can't believe someone like him went under the radar.'The Glutton told herself. 'Ywhach would have noticed, but where is his extra power coming from? He isn't even gathering reishi that quickly!'

"Licht Regen," He spoke.

'He isn't aiming for me!'

The Power enhanced her strength and shielded herself from the oncoming barrage of arrows, she too had been surprised but quickly reacted. "Tough Blut!" Alios said before charging once more. Meninas used her superb speed to flash above Aaroniero, who also dodged. Liltotto couldn't fire in fear of hurting her friend, and didn't want to take the chance because she feels Alios is a lot more than what he proclaims to be.

The traitorous Quincy discards his bow and reches into his side pocket, but revealing a new weapon. The pink-haired girl shot her eyes wide open as a more direct combat weapon showed itself. She tried slamming her enormous fists at him, but the man was willing to accept the trade.

PUNCH

SLASH

BOOM

A small explosion erupted, with both enemies taking damage. Meninas flew back to where her small friend was, but wasn't completely fine. Her arm was slashed, but only the side. Blood dripped down and she quickly took off her jacket and wrapped it around. The bleeding had stopped, but her shocked expression was that.

"Mini, what was that?" The Glutton asks, she just barely made out the weapon.

"Seel Schneider, I remember learning about." she answered seriously. The Glutton widened her eyes, she had learned about the weapon in the past, but never knew anyone who could use it. Yhwach himself proclaimed not everyone could, and that only special unique Quincy can make and use them in combat. "We have to watch what we use." The Power said tonelessly. The Glutton nodded, but still wondered on the mystery of who this person his.

As the smoke dispersed, they both squinted their eyes in hopes of getting a better view. They swore they could see some sort of tentacle sticking out of the crater, with it then being covered with tissue, bone, and then skin. The Semptima stood up and walked over. He had a cheeky grin on his face his power began to grow. He however did not develop this, he only copied it from another Quincy who had been in Las Noches long ago.

'HA! I used Szayel to give me the recordings of the Quincy Uryu Ishida, I then created many tools he used when he was hear, but they don't know that. This body was nothing but a mere weak foot-soldier before I came along. I enhanced this body! I trained and earned the powers. I am a truly unique being, no one can be as strong as I.' The Espada told himself before walking over.

Just as the man walked over, two more figures made there appearance. "My, my, don't I feel like a star. Sternritter 'K' and 'I' also coming in?" he said with his hands open. Cang Du and BG9 leaped before the two females, who weren't happy to receive help.

"Before you get mad, you know something is off with this guy." Cang spoke, seemingly calming them down. The Glutton nodded, he had already surprised the two.

"Be careful, he's using ancient relics. Seele Schneider caught Mini off guard, so watch out." Liltotto warned.

"We'll think of a plan." BG9 said, getting nods from everyone. Aaroniero watched as they spoke quietly amongst themselves, but he was loving this too much.

...

...

...

"Okay, you've had enough time." Alios stated. He was surprised when Cang began charging directly at him, and instead of using Hirenkyaku, he simply ran. "Too cocky." he commented. He began firing many Holy Arrows, fully knowing that his Licht Regen wouldn't be enough to pierce his skin. 'I devoured a hollow who witnessed Nnoitra's capturing. Don't think you can surprise me.'

The man then heard a gun cycling, his eyes widen when BG9 appeared behind the man, suddenly revealing his spirit weapon. 'You hid in his shadow!' he yelled in his mind. A barrage of spirit bullets began firing at the Espada who was forced to flash into the air, but he only saw a giant mouth come his way. His right limb was sacrificed for him to escape, jut barely managing to push from the teeth.

Punch

He was painfully slammed multiple times by the Power, he could feel almost every bone in his body break from it. Luckily for him, it's just a body which could be reformed if given enough time. But he doesn't doubt them underestimating him.

"Did it work?" Cang asked as they group together once more.

"His body felt like jelly." Minni said, getting strange glares from everyone.

Did it work? Did they truly beat a secret Espada?

Hell no.

The Semptima managed to forge Alios's body, he was lucky the jar wasn't hit, otherwise that would have gotten really bad. 'I now know not to severely underestimate them like I just did.' he told himself. The man rose up to face the rest, but he made sure to keep some of the injures. They would get suspicious if he kept coming back fully unscathed, but, he had forgotten Liltotto had consumed his arm, so the secret was shortly revealed.

"He can heal himself." She noted, getting the attention from the rest. "I ate his arm, yet it's still there. BG9 shot him in the chest, I saw it. Mini slammed him into the ground, and she said he felt like jelly." she noted, using her superb observation skills.

Aaroniero began to clap, "Impressive, but that isn't all. Let's just see how you all fend off against me using this." he stated before reaching into his pocket once more.

"Ginto!" BG9 yelled.

Cang looked over, "What's that?"

"Ginto is a Quincy technique I researched when I first knew I was a Quincy. I have never seen it, only read about it in ancient books. Where in the hell would he be able to gain it!?" he asked, shocked by what was before him. Gintō were small silver tubes, approximately 5 centimeters in size. By condensing their Reiryoku into a liquid state, Quincy can store it within the tubes Despite being considered antiquated tools, they allowed Quincy's to perform special techniques powerful enough to subdue Hollows, though their effectiveness is dependent on the user. These various attacks are triggered when the stored liquid Reiryoku is released.

Cang lowered his eyes, "Shé Jìn Zhǎo!" he uttered, surprising everyone. The Asian man pointed out his claws together and gathered more reishi. A new, large reishi created energy claw blasted its way across down the battle field. but BG9 had something to say.

"You idiot!" 'K' yelled, getting an annoyed glare from everyone.

Everyone watched as Alios grinned, followed by the reishi claw being dissolved into pure reishi as it was before the Iron had gathered it. Confusion and shock ran through their minds as the claw was gathered into the Steel Schneider.

With now enhanced reishi, "Heinzen (Sacred Bite)!" The Noveno said aloud before throwing four containment of Ginto. Suddenly, a large cubed-like box structure came rushing out towards the four at shocking speeds. Only the fastest survived without being hit, meaning BG9 was the one to suffer."

"GAAAAH!" The man yelled in agony as his left hand was purged into nothingness, but he was lucky he was still alive from that. The robot man used his many devices to tangle and close his wound, making sure no blood would spill from this.

"Can you still fight?" Cang asked. BG9 nodded and got up, even with half a robot body he still felt the brutal emotion of pain.

"Yea... but I think we should take this a lot more seriously." he stated before raising his head up. The Espada could barely just make out one glowing yellow eye in that helmet of his. "Quincy: Vollständing," he said. Everyone watched a large amount of reiatsu expedited through and out his body, causing a gust of wind to shoot out. A towering column of energy blasted upwards, then being followed with a Quincy cross at the top.

"Follow my lead." he said. Everyone nodded and remained behind him as he charged against the opposing force.

Aarinero awaited, 'I only have a little bit of Ginto left, I had hoped the last attack would kill at least one. Oh well, It's not like I'm running out of powers.' he told himself before preparing to handle the charge. BG9 opened his stomach, revealing a variety of different tools. Long tendrils spring out of his stomach and began darting forward. Since he was in his full power, he'd be able to take a few strong hits without going down.

A sudden plate opened in his chest, catching the Semptima off guard. A barrage of metal missiles began firing out of his chest like bullets. Aaroniero tried flashing away, but they were unfortunately homing. A small explosion occurred where he was, sending the man flying through the air.

'Damn it! If I hit the ground their going to finish me off, I have to use the last of it.' Alios said to himself before throwing the last remaining liquid of Ginto on the area below him. Once he fell, he was able to rise back up again. 'I used Wolke for the last attack, but I still have a couple of moves before this body fails me.' he ended his thoughts by raising his right hand up.

"I guess this is it, for you that is." he stated before moving his left hand over to his right. They all widened their eyes, fearing that the man possibly knew Vollständig. "Oh no, I never go to complete Vollständing." he answered for them, but that only raised the confusion.

The Sanrei glove fell off.

Two blue reishi wings sprung out of his body, filling him with power. A reishi bow formed in his hands, and so did the oncoming power. He was easily able to gather all the particles around him using the wings, which then transferred over to the bow.

"Quincy: Letzt Stil," he uttered in a low tone. They all soon realized what he was prepared to do, throw his powers away in exchange for taking their lives. They have never seen Letzt Stil in action, the only information they hold is that Yhwach explained it is obsolete and pales in comparison to what Vollstandig can do.

"There's no way he can hit us when we knows its coming. Even if his reiatsu is huge, we should be able to move his body's." Lil said. Everyone stared, but soon felt an immense pressure fall onto of them. Aarinero began to laugh hysterically, he was going to force them down. The man combined everything. The reiatsu from Alios Laurenz, Shien Kiba, his normal form, and the 36,000 hollows he had devoured.

'This reiatsu!? Hollow!? Shinigami!? Quincy!?' was the thought running through everyone's mind as there breathing became limited. They were forced to witness a massive arrow which the Espada had formed. It was as big as pillar from Las Noches, clearly something they couldn't just dodge with ease.

Aaroniero looked over and pointed the arrow towards the Glutton, 'You, are the smartest one. I love intelligent people, they are the strongest. Even though I'm going to eventually get all of you, I'll start with you.' he said to himself before grinning one last time.

"Sayonara!" he yelled before firing off the massive arrow which would eventually lead to him losing the Quincy powers.

Lilttoto watched as the immense-pressurized arrow became flying at her at light-speed, she could do nothing. The reiatsu was keeping her from moving, and she tried using her Vollstandig but couldn't make the call. Her life flashed before her eyes; skipping from being a kid to being recruited into the Wandenreich. It skipped to meeting Yhwach and reluctantly joining him. She met her best friend, Meninas and the other females. This wasn't the way things were supposed to go, she never had the thought of dying on her mind once in this entire war.

A black figure suddenly lifted her into the air, she then saw with wide eyes BG9 throw her a distance away. But that meant...

The young girl yelled out his name, but it was too late. The mega arrow rammed itself into his body, killing him instantly. The power died down, and everyone rushed towards the defeated Sternritter. His body was open, as it usually was in combat. But the end was not his back, but sand. 'K' had a massive gaping hope ranging from his neck all the way down to his hips. He had no abdomen, no heart, and above all, no life.

"He saved me..." The Glutton said sadly. Most Sternritter's, people like Bazz or Driscoll were greedy and selfish, and she hated most of them. The evil in Silbern radiated everywhere, and the man who was the source, was none other than Yhwach. She had thought BG9 was also like that, she's saw how ruthless he was, yet many soldiers act the opposite to their beloved comrades, and Sternritter K feared death more than anyone else.

"C'mon, let's torture this traitor." Cang said in a dark tone. He felt bad for BG9, dying alone like that. The man didn't even get to say goodbye, he just died as if his life meant nothing to anyone. The Glutton for once accepted that offer, feeling that a good Sternritter was killed by one of his own. The three locked eyes with the Espada, who was now wearing his normal attire. The mask was one, which confused them, but they didn't care.

"I guess I need to practice more. It will take a while to get those powers back however." He spoke with a different voice. The Sternritter didn't flash over, they walked over. Fear is what they hoped the man would be filled with. Now with the loss of his powers, what else can he do?

The Iron was going to claw him.

The Power was going to break every bone his body... slowly.

The Glutton was going to eat him.

"Take that mask off, I want you to see yourself die." Cang demanded.

"Ah... if you want to see my pretty face so badly again, then I'll just do that." he said before laughing. The Noveno slowly removed the mask, before throwing it off to the side. "There, ya happy now?" he before having a cheeky smile. The Sternritter stop walking, wondering if their eyes are truly deceiving them.

"This reiatsu... is a Shinigami!" The Glutton said, baffled on what the hell is actually going on.

"Yep, Kaien Shiba is the name!" he answered smoothly.

...

...

...

"What the fuck!?"

"I know, I know, I should be in Soul Society. But here I am, Kaien Shiba Vice-Captain for the 13th Division. Pleasure to meet you all!" he said, introducing himself. The man grinned and watched their faces, which clearly weren't amused ones. "I don't feel like explaining anything, so just die already!" he yelled before charging at the three. Kaien first made a flash against Cang's claws, who was more than happy to kill this person.

The weapons clanged together, but Cang had the edge. The Noveno blocked a deadly strike and moved to counter attack, but as his katana slashed against Cang's chest, he only felt the tough Iron which shielded the man.'I have to do something about that Iron, otherwise I won't be able to hit him.' he said before using Shuno to flash away.

Cang felt it was Shunpo and not Hirenkyaku. "Are you really a Shinigami? For all I know that can just be some standard katana." the Iron spat.

"Well, I was just about to show you." Shiba replied with a grin. His sword turned yellow and began to spin, "Surge through the seas and rage through the skies," he said as the blade extended. The Quincy lowered their eyes, this man was clearly a Shinigami.

"Nejibana," he ended with the new blade in his hands. It was a long blue staff with a trident at the end, and the opposite being more of a corkscrew/drill. This was a Shinigami Shikai, and they knew that. He made a loving smile, one that the real Kaien Shiba would do. It was what made him famous with the females, and also caught the attention of the pink-haired Sternritter.

...

"Lili," the Power said.

"What is it, Mini?" her short friend asked with her eyes glued onto the Shinigami.

"Doesn't he look like Ichi?" she asked in a cute tone.

'...Ichi...?' the Glutton said to herself. "Yea... his hair looks kinda similar...why?" her friend asked in return.

...

...

..."He's cute," she commented on with a blush.

The Glutton sighed, "Who cares!? He isn't Ichigo, so let's just kill him already."

Meninas nodded, this wasn't Ichigo. Even if the man resembled him, she still wouldn't have a problem ending his life in a few moments.

(A.N)

Well, sorry for the first invasion sucking so much. I'll go into detail of what happens in Soul Society next chapter. It will be a mass of fighting (which gets boring) so I'll add some other stuff to divide the time.

I'll do 2 more chapters before switching to my other story. And the next one should come pretty fast. Alot faster than this one did.

EDIT: 1/23/15 or 23/1/15 this was Beta'd By Datalife123!
