New King Chapter- 6

Hey everyone. I really don't have any excuses for these late chapters anymore do I? What has it been, 3 weeks? Well here's the truth, plain and simple. I am losing inspiration for this story, and hitting the biggest wall of writers block ever on it.

2/20/11-

... I don't know what to say. After rereading this today I conclude that due to the mixture of sugar and horror stories came the first version of this chapter. One thing I should have done long ago, this chapter is FIXED.


As the South Gate came into view, he sized up the guardian. Jidanbo was the name? As he remembered from Ichigo's incursion into the soul society. Big and strong as he was, if Ichigo could defeat him as easily he did back then, he was sure the giant would be no problem now.

He strolled up and asked the giant, "Are you going to let me through? Or am I going to have to make yah?"

This caused Jidanbo to look around frantically and wonder where the voice came from. He then looked down, and saw Hichigo. He looked startled, and he had well reason to be. That was the soul reaper that beat him in that ryoka invasion. But something was different. The reiatsu seemed slightly familiar, but the rest was pure hollow.

"Aren't you-"

"Don't even think about calling me that." Hichigo spat, looking up at the giant.

"But that orange hair...-"

"I hope to get rid of it as soon as possible." he replied, pulling his zanpakutou out and pointing it at the giant. "Now are you going to open the gate? Or what?"

"Well o'course I can't. You know what happened the last time I let someone through." he reminded Hichigo, but he didn't need reminding. Looking through Ichigo's memories before confronting Jidanbo gave him all the information he needed.

"Am I just going to have to make yah? If poor little Ichigo could take you all that time ago, then I sure can." Hichigo said, now twirling the zanpakutou by the wrappings. He was itching for a fight, even a fight as easy as this one. Maybe when he was done he could cut up the giant into little pieces and..- 'Stop. Hold up. If I don't get my butt into the Seireitei soon I'm going to have to fight my way in.' he reminded himself, and he also felt that Zangetsu and that weakling Ichigo agreed.

"So move your fat butt and open the gate." Hichigo said, twirling it a bit faster.

"I can't do that little guy." he said, shifting from foot to foot a bit out of pure boredom and lack of concern. He obviously didn't remember to well.

"Little guy..." Hichigo gritted through his teeth. His face was so red he had tick marks that practically mirrored Hitsugaya. But this embarrassment turned to rage, and a dark reiatsu enveloped him. An eerie voice that sounded like it came out of a hollow itself. "How would you like to be...? Cut down to size?"

Jidanbo flashed a look of worry, and then three deep cuts appeared on his torso. He didn't even have a chance to raise his axes as his knees buckled and his hands where on the ground, struggling to keep his trembling body up.

"I'll bring you down here, won't I?" Hichigo said, maniacal laughter ensuing and consuming him as he flash stepped and cut, flash stepped and cut, until no part of Jidanbo was bigger than Hichigo himself.

"Can anyone track him? He's mostly a hollow for heavens sake! It shouldn't be hard to do." Captain Kurotsuchi complained as he paced the lab, wondering what to make of this situation. 'Yamamoto sending out and order like that, was very un-Yamamoto like.' he thought, continuing his pacing and every few seconds or so telling his so called incompetent squad members to hurry up. 'This 'hollow-Kurosaki' must be a big problem to him then. Only if he would of let me test on the boy, so many possibil-'

"Captain Kurotsuchi!" a voice called from the back, it was Rin who had seemed to find something.

"What!" he practically growled, he hated being interrupted in thought.

"I just got a report that someone found Jibando outside the west gate mutilated..."

"Mutilated as in how?" Kurotsuchi asked, his overall curiosity taking over all common thought as usual.

"Um... Cut up into pieces." he said, even him seeming a bit disturbed by this information.

"Ooh. Sounds interesting! Tell me this, was it like a dissection? Or was it just like Kenpachi on a field day?" Kurotsuchi asked, interested.

"Definitely Kenpachi field days like. The organs were cut up to as if they didn't exist as possible specimens, like you would have used them for captain."

Kurotsuchi flashed a look of disgust and held his head. "Seems most likely to assume that the culprit is already inside the Seireitei I presume?"

"The report only states that the gate seems like it was moved, but they aren't sure because Jibando hadn't actually been the one to move it."

"Well well well. This might be a little more exciting, won't it?" Kurotsuchi said, a smile coming across his features. "When this is all said and done, I might have a pretty interesting specimen in my possession."

Rangiku and Shuehei were currently passed out on the floor of squad ten barracks. The sight of the murder disturbing them so much that, they had decided after sending in their report to go drink themselves off of it. Sake bottles littered the floor next to them, along with a few other members of the investigation team. Except for one shinigami of the investigation team, they were all there. They also wouldn't be waking up for quite some time.

Hichigo was lost. He had exactly no clue whatsoever where he was. "It's not like this place has a map or anything, or actual signs." he cursed aloud. Searching the horizon, he saw the white tower. Rukia may have been there before, but she sure wasn't there now. "What to do... What to do..." he murmured, to soon be approached by a shinigami.

Hichigo tensed up, until he saw this shinigami's face. The man was stumbling around, looked like he was high on something, or both. Drunk the man was, very drunk.

"Rangiiikku. Where arre youu?" he chanted over and over again as he stumbled around aimlessly. Currently he was walking in a circle tripping over his own two feet.

Hichigo watched him for a few seconds, and finally just gave up. He couldn't stand here for a second longer. "Yo stupid? Are you in your right mind?" he asked.

"Rangiku? Is that youu?" the man said, turning around towards Hichigo.

"No. But if you come any closer, I will slit your throat." Hichigo said, pulling out the white sword with a black edge and pointing it at him.

The man soon realized the severity of his situation quickly with a sword pointed in his face. He attempted to reason, "W-woah... M-man.. Um.. If I can do anyt-thing... Or..." he said with a stutter.

"You know," Hichigo said, with a wild grin spreading across his features. "I do have something I need you for."

Hichigo shunpo'ed behind the man and held his sword across his neck. The blade was sharp enough to leave a tiny scratch on the man's neck where the blade just touched his skin. "Show me where the squad 13 barracks are, or expect this blade to leave more than a scratch on your neck."

"I g-guess I can show y-yah." the man said, and the blade was released from his neck, and then pointed at the back of his head.

"Hurry up. Kay?" Hichigo said, starting losing his patience with the drunken man very quickly.

Yamamoto slammed his fist down in anger and said to Soi Fon, who he had specifically called to his office for one reason and one reason only, "Find Kurosaki, and bring him to me. Kill him if necessary."


End of Chapter 6

((Imagine the tune to Somewhere Over the Rainbow while reading this, it will all make sense.

Somewhere over Hueco Mundo...
Probably on the roof...
Hichigo murdered a speaker...
That was driving making me insane.
I was trying to find the power cord...
That fed it electricity..
But I had no luck in that..
So I had Hichigo kill it for me...
I guess I kind of feel bad now..
No I really don't.
Because if I hear this song one more time..
I'm going to slit my own throat..))

((Doesn't make sense..))
