Hi! It's me again! Sadly, my disclaimer is here so I won't be able to annoy Hitsu-kun anymore! But, oh well... Anyway, here is the second chapter of Bleach- The Legendary Bankai. Also, the flirting between Ichi and Hitsu begins!!

Disclaimer: darkhyourinmaru does not own Bleach. Because if she did, she would make it into yaoi

I heard that!!! Oh, and here are some minor things.

/"..."/- Zangetsu talking

'...'- thinking


Chapter 1: The Beginning

Ichigo was tossing and turning helplessly in his bed while trying to calm down his horrible migraine. He finally sat up from his bed and rubbed his temples. 'What the heck?' he thought and finally decided to stop sleeping for the night...Just like any other nights since Aizen left. He looked around the room and sighed again. It had become dull ever since Rukia went back to Soul Society leaving him in charge of the Hollows here in Karakura Town along with his other friends. He left his room and headed downstairs when he felt a strong yet familiar reiatsu. His eyes widened in shock as he instantly recognized whose it was. "Hello...Kurosaki Ichigo." greeted a voice from the darkness. Ichigo's eyes widened but was too late to react as he got pinned by the wall. He choked out, "Why are you here...Aizen?"

Soul Society: The Captain's Meeting

Yamamoto Yuki was getting bored as she listened to her grandfather talking. That's when she noticed something strange and it seemed that her grandfather, Hitsugaya, Naito, and Byakuya to notice. "Is something wrong, Yuki-taichou?" asked Shigekuni with a hint of concern laced in his tone. Yuki looked up at him also noticing the other captains' looking at her. She replied, "Hai. Gomen, but, I have a bad feeling something's wrong." "Could it possibly involve Kurosaki Ichigo in it?" asked Soi Fong to her friend and comrade. Hitsugaya's eyes widened and thought, 'Ichigo. What's going on down there?' Yuki sighed and replied, "Most likely. This isn't a good feeling jii-sama." Yamamoto stroke his beard and seemed to be deep in thought.

Naito looked at Hitsugaya and was surprised to see him with such pain-filled eyes. She blinked in confusion but he caught her and looked away. She blinked again but decided to wait to hear what everyone else says. "I see...and I suppose that you want to go and see them yourselves?" asked Yamamoto to his granddaughter. Yuki blushed slightly but nodded. She said, "I also have a feeling that it involves Aizen Sousuke, Ichimaru Gin, and Tousen Kaname." Everyone looked at her in shock and apparently so did Yamamoto. He leaned back in his chair and noticed that Hitsugaya was biting his lip and had his hands clenched. 'My,my...Seems like our very own 10th captain has feelings for one of the ryoka.' thought Yamamoto as a hidden pink blush cross his features. Yuki noticed this and sighed while rubbing her temples. Yamamoto nodded and said, "Very well...I shall let you cross over to the real world. Who shall accompany you Yuki?"

"I will." said Naito with her arms crossed. Everyone wasn't surprised that the new captain of the 9th division accepted to go to the real world with Yuki. Everyone in Soul Society knew that the two were childhood friends and Naito had an overprotective side that can be dangerous when someone harms her in any way. Scratch that, when someone harms any of her friends at all. Yamamoto nodded and was about to say something but Hitsugaya said, "I'll accompany them." Now this surprised everyone including Naito. The small captain never did have any interest in the real world but many saw him talking to Kurosaki Ichigo last year about it. Yamamoto nodded again and said, "Very well. Prepare to leave in 24 hours." The trio nodded.

Karakura Town

Ichigo growled as he struggled against Aizen's grip. Aizen smiled and replied, "Why am I here? Always straight to the point aren't you Kurosaki-kun?" Ichigo growled at him again and his nails started to sink into the skin of the traitor. He coughed out, "Urusei teme." Aizen wagged a finger at him but said, "Do you want to know why I am here? It's because Hueco Mundo had told me to come here and retrieve you. Your hollow side is calling." Ichigo's eyes widened but he merely growled again and blood started to leak off of Aizen's skin. Aizen merely watched in interesting before releasing the ryoka painfully. Ichigo rubbed his throat and glared at Aizen again who merely smirked. Ichigo growled but then yelped in pain as he felt a burning sensation on his back. Aizen smirked as he crouched down to the orange-haired shinigami.

He watched in fascination as a mark appeared on his back resembling much like a dragon with two swords pierced through it and wings torn from the blades. He smirked as the mark finished drawing itself on Ichigo's back. Ichigo was breathing heavily as he tried to touch the mark that caused him a great deal of pain. Aizen cupped his chin and said, "Listen well Kurosaki Ichigo. Your dreams will come to an end soon. This mark will make sure of it if you don't come with me." "Like hell I would!" scowled Ichigo darkly. Aizen merely smirked then heard something coming up from Ichigo's room. Aizen scowled and disappeared.

Ichigo sighed in relief and then noticed that three people walked out of his room. He was surprised to see Yuki, Naito, and Hitsugaya come out. "Ichigo?" asked Yuki as she walked beside him as well as the other two. The other two stared in shock as he just fell unconscious. "Kuso..." muttered Hitsugaya and helped the human teen up. Naito and Yuki looked at each other and nodded. Naito said, "Oi, Hitsugaya-taichou. Let's get Kurosaki into his bed." The white-haired captain nodded and brought the shinigami representative to his room. Naito's eyes widened as she felt a black reiatsu coming from Ichigo. 'Nani??' she thought shocked.

Yuki glanced warily at both Ichigo and Hitsugaya and too felt the black reiatsu. She turned to Naito and the two disappeared. Hitsugaya glanced over his shoulder and sighed. He will never understand those two. He laid Ichigo on his bed and lightly touched the boy's forehead. He was burning and Hitsugaya slightly hissed as his eyes narrows into slits. He murmured, "What happened Ichigo?" Then he noticed something glowing on Ichigo's back. His eyes narrowed again and touched the mark causing Ichigo to hiss in pain. "Ichigo." he muttered sadly but then he shook his head in realization. "What the hell? I'm not suppose to fall in love with him."

"I'm worried." murmured Yuki while looking at the sky. Naito looked at her companion uneasily and agreed. She said, "I feel it too Yuki. Could it be that mark?" Yuki closed and opened her eyes slightly with a cold look in it. They knew about the mark of Hueco Mundo or otherwise known as the Seal. That seal is dangerous and can kill the bearer if it wanted to. No one knew where or when the hollows got their hands on that. But it was rumored to be very dangerous and it could be seen as a seal that can make you go crazy. It could also seal the bearer's reiatsu unless he managed to get it. The legendary bankai that all shinigami had trouble obtaining. If they managed to get it, they will be stronger than all of the shinigamis in Soul Society. Yuki replied, "It could be. But...I decided to wait until well...Ichigo tells us what happens." "Aw! Oh, well...I guess we can play matchmaker in this boring town. Hm..." mumbled Naito as she went into deep in thought. Yuki sweat-dropped.

Yuki sighed and ran a hand through her black-blue hair. "Let's get going." she retorted and disappeared using shunpo. Naito pouted but decided to follow the girl.

(In Ichigo's Mind)

"Yo, king!" greeted a teasing tone. Ichigo flinched and turned around to see Shirosaki Hichigo. His hollow. Ichigo gave an annoyed look and asked, "What the hell do you want?" "Did ya forget already king? You recieved the strange mark on your back." smirked Hichigo at his counterpart. Ichigo blinked confused at him. He tilted his head and replied, "What mark?" Hichigo had an annoyed face and said, "The mark you recieved from that bastard Aizen!" Ichigo winced at the tone of his voice. Then he felt two arms wrapped around his waist and his back crashed into a chest. The orange-haired shinigami blushed and struggled to get out of the hold but the arms tightened. Hichigo scowled, "Shut up and listen king. The mark that you recieved is a forbidden mark called the Seal. It has powers beyond our control." Ichigo blinked and questioned, "What kind of powers?"

The arms tightened and he replied, "Powers that may kill you." /"He is right Ichigo..."/ said another voice causing the two look-alikes to turn to see Zangetsu. Ichigo blinked and mumbled, "Zangetsu." "What the hell are you doing here old man?" growled Hichigo releasing his counterpart. /"I am here to speak to Ichigo. Is that illegal Hichigo?"/replied another voice with amusement laced in it. Hichigo growled and his hands clenched into fists. "Urusei!" he shouted. Ichigo watched in amusement as Hichigo tried to punch Zangetsu but to no avail.

/"So loud this late Hichigo? Will you ever learn?"/smirked Zangetsu at the Hollow. Hichigo growled and then the three heard someone say, "Ichigo...wake up!" Then Ichigo was brought back to the human world.

(Outside)

"ICHIGO!!!" yelled Kurosaki Isshin. Ichigo opened his eyes and sat up. He looked around and saw his father grinning proudly. Ichigo had a fist prepared and he yelled, "URUSEI!!! CAN'T PEOPLE EVER SLEEP!?!?!?" With that said, Ichigo punched Isshin in the face causing the father to fly out of the room. Ichigo sighed and looked around once more. He was surprised to see Toushiro sleeping on a futon next to his bed. He smiled; the captain was actually cute when asleep. He shakes his head; he cannot think of Hitsugaya that way! He refuse to!! Ichigo sighed and woke the small captain up carefully. It worked...but when he woke up, Hitsugaya gave Ichigo an annoyed death glare. "Time to wake up Toushiro!" smirked Ichigo in a sing-song voice. Toushiro glared at him again but decided to wake up knowing that it was useless even trying to go back to sleep.

Then he remembered what happened last night. "Are you okay Kurosaki?" Ichigo blinked confused at him. He replied, "Of course I am Toushiro. Why?" "It's Hitsugaya-taichou Kurosaki. And I asked because you seemed to be out of it lately." answered Toushiro. Ichigo smirked and ruffled the little one's hair causing him to have an annoyed face on. Ichigo snickered and said, "Anyway, since you're here...You'll be coming with me somewhere." "Where?" questioned the captain of the 10th division. Ichigo replied, "We need to shop for your new clothes." The captain's eyes twitched but sighed anyway. He murmured, "Fine." Ichigo smirked in victory and said, "Well...for now, you can try and wear one of my clothes." Then he decided to look through his closet for any clothes for the captain to wear.

'Kuso! Yuki, Naito, you better be around to help me!!!' thought Hitsugaya furiously as he walked around in black baggy pants, a silver-blue shirt, black fingerless gloves, black sneakers, and a pair of blue goggles around his neck that Ichigo found in a black box that had his name labeled. Of course, Ichigo had a suspicion that his father put it there but ignored it. Toushiro glanced at Ichigo who was wearing black pants, an orange shirt, a black jacket, and black shoes. "Just wear these for now okay?" Ichigo told him earlier before they left. He sighed in frustration and Ichigo glanced down at him. He merely smirked when he noticed two familiar girls up ahead. One had black-blue hair and the other had silver hair. The two looked at him and yelled out, "Ichigo!!"

Hitsugaya sighed in relief as he recognized the two also. He said, "Hello, Yuki, Naito." Yuki smiled and gave them a suspicious look at him causing him to sweat. Then she smiled and replied, "I like your outfit Shiro-chan!" "As do I...Who knew that you were a rebel type taichou?" smirked Naito in a way that Toushiro wanted to hide himself from her suspicious eyes. He scoffed, "So what?" "We're here to shop for clothes for Toushiro here." smirked Ichigo. Hitsugaya growled and said, "It's Hitsugaya-taichou to you!" The two females chuckled while Ichigo snickered.


Aw!!! Kawaii ne? I could really imagine Hitsu-chan in those kind of clothes. Fortunately, my disclaimer quit when I told her the 'truth'. So, I hired Ichi-kun, Hitsu-chan, and for some reason, Byakuya-kun.

Ichigo: THIS WOMAN BLACKMAILED US!!!

Hitsugaya: Save me TT

Byakuya: I came here out of boredom...--

No complaining! Byakuya?

Byakuya: Please review and please do not flame this story.
