Kenpachi

Last time:

"I'm sorry to end this meeting so abruptly, but I have a small problem. A member of my division has reached Bankai, and I haven't tested it yet." Zaraki shouts as he charges out the door in search of Ikkaku.

"Yachiru! YACHIRU! Where she now?" said Kenpachi, almost to himself, as he charges across the Seireitei.

"Right here, Ken-chan! What are we doing now?" asked Yachiru as she jumped onto his shoulder from a nearby roof.

"There you are. Anyway, I've just found out that the pipsqueak, Ikkaku, has Bankai. I haven't fought him while he's using it, so I have a chance to have a little fun fighting him." said Kenpachi, charging through the streets in search of Ikkaku.

"Yay! Ken-chan's going to have fun beating up baldy!" cried out Yachiru

"Hey! I'm NOT BALD! IT'S SHAVED!" shouted Ikkaku, emerging from the local bar, with Rangiku following close behind.

"Wait, WHAT DID YOU SAY ABOUT KENPACHI TAICHO BEATING ME?" Ikkaku yelled while Rangiku began to laugh her ass off, screaming that this was the funniest thing she'd seen in over a year.

"Ahh, there you are Ikkaku! I've heard that you have achieved Bankai! I need to test your Bankai personally. Now let's FIGHT!" said Kenpachi

"AHHHHH!" shouted Ikkaku as he ran like hell in the opposite direction of Kenpachi.

Unfortunately for Kenpachi, and (ironically) fortunately for Ikkaku, Kenpachi's massive reiatsu prevented him from tracking Ikkaku, and Ikkaku made his escape, running, literally, as if Kenpachi was at his heels, (When Kenpachi wants to fight he's worse than the devil).

"Dang it! Where'd he go now? Yachiru, can you find him?" raged Kenpachi.

"Sure Ken-chan! You'll have fun fight baldy! And I'll enjoy watching you being happy!" said Yachiru with a grin.

"Great, now which way?" asked Kenpachi

"That way" shouts Yachiru, pointing to a direction opposite to the way Ikkaku had gone.

"Huh, didn't he go that way?" asked Kenpachi, pointing in the direction Ikkaku had gone.

Yachiru replied with a no, and said that Ikkaku was getting away. Just before Kenpachi could head that way, Ichigo called out to him from the roof of the bar.

"She's leading you the wrong way, you know."

"YOU! You'll put up an even better fight then that pipsqueak, Ikkaku. Let's see if you beat me a second time!" called Kenpachi up to Ichigo.

"Kenpachi, I don't want to fight you, but I have been ordered by the old man to bring you back, by force if necessary!" Ichigo called down to him with a scowl.

"Well, if you want me to go back with you, you have to beat me first!" roared Kenpachi, boosting his reiatsu.

"Well, it seems that a fight is unavoidable. Let's DO THIS!" shouted Ichigo as he boosted his own reiatsu.

While everyone was focused on Ichigo and Kenpachi, Rangiku shunpo'd away, something unusual for her to do right before a fight.

Rukia

Kuchiki Mansion

'Ichigo, how will I stand it, living without you? Already I feel myself withdrawing into my old shell, speaking little to anybody. I never thought it would come to this… but I think I may be falling for you, Kurosaki Ichigo.' was Rukia's thoughts when she heard a commotion outside her room.

"Please, let me speak to Rukia, it's very important!" came the voice of… was that Rangiku she heard in the hall? Well she also sounded drunk, and was arguing with one of the servants, who was currently telling Rangiku that Miss Kuchiki was not to be disturbed.

Sighing, I thought that I should go see what the ruckus was all about. I opened the door, and sure enough, there was a drunken Rangiku arguing with a servant.

As soon as she saw me, Rangiku called out to me

"Rukia! Quickly! Ichigo is about to get into a fight with Kenpachi!" shouted Rangiku

My mind reeled in shock, and fear. 'Ichigo is still here in Soul Society? And he's about to fight Kenpachi? He could be killed! I needed to get there, and fast!'

"What? What is he thinking?" I practically screamed at her.

"Well, I heard from Ukitake Taicho that Yamamoto Sou-taicho ordered Ichigo to retrieve Kenpachi Taicho from one of his fighting sprees, using force if Kenpachi refuses. I saw Kenpachi refuse to go peacefully, and left when I saw them draw their swords." said Rangiku in a rush.

"We need to get there now!" I said worriedly. 'Ichigo gets into sooo much trouble, especially when I'm not around to help him.'

Rangiku agreed, and they both disappeared in a burst of shunpo, leaving a confused and bewildered servant wondering what had just happened and where the two ladies had gone.

*Near the ensuing fight*

'Ichigo, where are you? Why would you be so foolish as to fight a battle-crazed Kenpachi Taicho?' I was thinking, but then I saw a sight that was so weird, it stopped me dead in my tracts. Then I started to laugh so hard I fell out of the sky. I never thought I would see my brother, captain of 6th division, skulking behind a wall watching the fight between Kenpachi and Ichigo. When Byakuya nii-sama saw me, his face made a scowl that would make even Ichigo proud. The puppy dog pout looked so weird on his face-it was the funniest thing I had seen since Ichigo's face when he found me sleeping in his closet. Next to me, Rangiku was laughing at Hitsugaya Taicho, who was acting just like my brother. In fact, as I looked around, all the captains (with the exception of Kenpachi) were hiding and watching the battle.

"What are you doing?" I managed to stammer out between laughs.

"The captain-commander has ordered us to watch the fight between Kenpachi and Kurosaki, without being found by either party. Therefore, we are hiding our reiatsu and watching from positions that cannot be seen by Kurosaki or Kenpachi." said Byakuya.

As he finished saying this, there was a loud crash and the wall next to Byakuya exploded into dust and rubble. Kenpachi stepped out of the clearing air, and saw Byakuya.

"Hey, Byakuya, what are you doing here? Never mind, it doesn't matter. You want to join the fight, the two of you would make it almost even." said Kenpachi.

"I would never deign to fight you with your… barbaric fighting methods." Byakuya said.

"Aww, you're no fun. Oh well, at least I've got someone else to play with." shouted Kenpachi as he leaped back into the air to continue his fight with Ichigo.

"Now come on Ichigo! I know you've got more power than this! Show me what you've got!" roared Kenpachi.

Okay, so that wasn't where I thought this chapter would go, but I had to show Rukia's feeling in all this, and I just had to have a funny scene involving a 'hurt' Byakuya. And Hitsugaya is awesome, so expect him as much as I can fit him in (May be some HitsuMatsu). So there will be more fighting next chapter, I promise! (I think- the story has a way of making twists that I don't expect, including that first person view of Rukia). Please, R/R!

Read/review (more reviews=faster updates), feel free to flame, but please make it so I can improve my writing.
Send me ideas of where you think the story should go, maybe I'll need them, or they'll take me somewhere cool. If I do use an idea, I'll say in the disclaimer "So & so thought of this idea" ect. Thanks!
