Yup! this is a collab of sorts with a friend of mine, hence why the whole reason why one of the members of my team and one of my best friends, MSMLGamer, decided to go full force on this one. and of that, we decided to do a full-on collab on this. so yha, I plan for all of my future stories to have who it was written by, although it is mainly me, I just want to give more credit to the team behind these as well!
Chapter 1: Do You Want To Know The Name (Part 1)
Written and Edited by: Ethorthebayleef and MSLMGamer
The Mansion was always quiet around this time, it was… boring to the King of Servants. Both Kotomine and Shinji were waiting for information from Lancer about Caster's whole situation, and that was enough to bore him, there was not enough to do around the castle like a mansion that was originally the host for the grail. So unlike those around him, Gilgamesh patrolled the Gardens it was honestly the most fun thing there for him to do… but something was telling him not to enjoy the smell of petunias on the night of Caster's death. He… felt something.
At first, it felt like a tingling sensation in the back of his neck, a sensation he could not itch. The sensation grew more and more until he was almost crushed by the feeling of… something. It was something that he could not place… despite knowing where it comes from… the cloaked person in front of him. He could not tell the gender of the person in front of him. But he knew for a fact that the cloaked man had piercing brown eyes, a pale complexion, and a sword that he was drawing from his hip.
"So you do mean to attack us, a mongrel like you! Oh, you are truly a funny one." Gilgamesh said as he looked at the cloaked man
"Kyōka Suigetsu," said the Cloaked man
"What was that present? Did you say something?" asked Gilgamesh… before his back erupted in a torrent of blood, "W-What the hell?"
"You have something I want. It was idiotic of you to have it on your person." said the cloaked man
Gilgamesh looked behind him and saw the item in his hand. Illia's Heart. He took Illia's Heart.
"I won't let you take that… I WON'T LET YOU HUMILIATE ME!" said Gilgamesh with a snap of his fingers his noble phantasm activated and a torrent of swords launched at the cloaked man in a tenth of a second with dust erupting into the air… until it stopped. The dust settled and the corpse of the cloaked man lay there ripped apart and impaled by the thousands of blades.
"Tricked you."
Gilgamesh felt something hit him. He looked behind him to see the cloaked man standing there, he then looked down and saw the Cloaked man's sword pierced through his back. He could not tell if it hit his heart… but he could tell that his anger was almost peaked.
"Don't worry… I still need you alive, you won't die, servant. But a great change is coming… and you are the start of something great, 'Mongrel'." said the Cloaked Man before he ripped the sword from his chest.
Gilgamesh fell to the ground with his face falling to the ground first into a pool of his rapidly pooling blood, He tried to stand back up to fight the man, but faltered when he felt a pain in his thighs, "You bastard." said Gilgamesh before he looked back toward the cloaked man, "WHO THE HELL ARE YOU! WHY THE HELL DO YOU WANT THE CATALYST FOR THE GRAIL!? WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU STRONGER THAN ME!?"
"I am Sōsuke Aizen. And you will find out soon enough… Mongrel." said Aizen before he disappeared with Flash Step.
Gilgamesh seethed in pain and anger as he tried to stand, he heard his "Master", Shinji, and Kotomine Kieri running toward him… but he did not care… to him Sosuke Aizen was a bigger threat than anything the war was capable of throwing at him… no, more than the gods he wished to overthrow… and this was now personal… And Sōsuke Aizen was the man he swore to beat.
(5 hours later.)
"I am sorry what? A Hollow presence all the way over there? Don't you guys have men over in that prefecture of Japan?"
"Ichigo, Don't complain." said Captain Jūshirō Ukitake, "At least we didn't call you during a school day for this mission."
"I guess that is true. So remind me what is going on over here again and why I am being sent to, quote on quote "Mage Zone" on my Sunday morning?" asked Ichigo, "I thought magic isn't real?"
"Well it is real, I was quite shocked to learn that our techniques could be replicated by a human, or at least that is how most of us are able to comprehend it. But Mages are truly real, and so is magic, it is just kept out of the public eye as much as possible but once every 100 years seven mages wage war for a miracle, too bad for us this war did not take 100 years to start again, it only took ten years," said Ukitake
"So because these Mages want a miracle I am going to clean up their mess before the hollows show up." Said Ichigo.
"Yes. Because the mages themselves cause a lot of damage before the war ends… but that is where the problem lies." said Ukitake, "We had three Soul Reapers there, members of Squad 10 to be exact, but none of them have reported on the war for the past 10 hours, and I suspect foul play thanks to Aizen. The Captain commander gave you the go-ahead, and So did Captain Tōshirō Hitsugaya. He would be here himself, but he was preoccupied."
"Then deck him in the face to me." said Ichigo, "I am coming upon the location, At least I think I am."
"You made it to Fuyuki City already? Impressive speed there, Ichigo."
"Well, I went to where you told me to go… but all I am seeing is a wrecked mansion," said Ichigo
"Stay on the line with me… I don't like how this sounds already," said Ukitake
"Is this thing able to hook onto my ear somehow?"
"The button by the antenna"
"Thanks."
Ichigo landed down in the courtyard and looked around the area, "This place looks very barren… I don't like this at all." said Ichigo
"Flare your Spiritual Pressure for a second." said Ukitake, "If there are any Hollows around they might come to you with that alone"
"I guess. But what if Aizen's still around?" asked Ichigo
"I doubt he would stick around now that we know that he is not on our side anymore." said Ukitake, "Besides if he is around, the Gotei 13 will know it. Captain Mayuri Kurotsuchi has been working on upgrading the Spiritual Detection System or SDS to allow us to detect dampened Spiritual Pressure. So we will know."
"Glad to hear it," said Ichigo before letting the full torrent of his spiritual pressure blanket the Area… there was nothing for a few seconds… and then there was rustling from the trees and a Hollow barreling toward Ichigo.
"Looks like they want dinner after all!" said Ichigo as he drew his Zampokto from over his shoulder, the massive meat cleaver known as Zangetsu, and he charged at the Hollows, slicing them all to shreds in only a matter of seconds. The fodder Hollows fall to the ground and disappear soon after. Ichigo landed on the ground soon after and flung his blade behind him after feeling it stop, Ichigo pulled the blade back by the bandage as the blood of the hollow he killed was flinging with it.
"I think that was the last of them," said Ichigo
"I am on my way to Mayuri currently, give me some time to get back to you," said Ukitake
"Take all the time you need, I am gonna see if there are any more around this… gothic castle-looking thing." said Ichigo before his nose turned and a noise came to his ears, "What the hell is that noise?"
"Is it another Hollow?" asked Ukitake
"No… it doesn't feel like it… it feels like a- WH-WOOOOOOOOO!" said Ichigo before he was interrupted by a flurry of chains entrapping him and flinging him right into the air.
Ichigo looked down at a blonde man that stood beside golden portals, anger oozing from his eyes and heart, fluctuating whatever energy that Ichigo was feeling to the extreme.
"SOSUKE AIZEN! YOU WILL DIE FOR WHAT YOU DID TO ME, PREPARE TO DIE YOU, BASTARD!" Shouted the golden-haired man.
The portals began to launch sword after sword, all of them trying to plant themselves into Ichigo's body…Ichigo silently said Bankai and let the energy of it flare for a split second, blocking all the swords in an instant before going back into Shikai, and all of them falling to the ground and shattering upon contact.
"Let me tell you something Goldy, my name is not Sosuke Aizen." said Ichigo
"WHAT!"
"Do you want to know the name of the man you just pissed off?" said Ichigo,
"My name is Ichigo Kurosaki, and I'm about to kick your ass!" Said Ichigo with a cocky smirk on his face.
