Ichigo made it to school on time. At first he thought he wouldn't make it, but when he got to the school gate and saw the students still walking in the yard, he knew he made it with time to spare. He was half way to the entrance when he heard his name being called out.

"Ichigo!" Ichigo turned to look behind him and saw that Orihime was the one to call him, and saw Chad right behind her.

"Hey, guys." The orange-haired teen waved. They started talking while walking the rest of the way to their school. "Did you know that Rukia and Renji were here?" Ichigo asked.

Orihime nodded. "Yeah, I sensed their reiatsu when I was on my way here."

"Same here," Chad replied.

"Man, if Brielle were here she would be pouting about not sensing them sooner," Ichigo murmured.

"Speaking of Brielle, where is she?" Orihime asked.

Ichigo sighed while scratching his head. "She went to the Dark Forest for something." He didn't say what it was. His friends wouldn't know who he was talking about. Orihime, Chad, Uryu, and the Shinigami never really met the Dark Beings during the demon war. Once their job was done, they went home while everyone else was too focused on Lucifer's death to notice them leave.

"Hmm, I wonder what she does there…" The brown-haired girl said with her pointer finger on the side of her chin in thought. She looked to Ichigo. "Do you think she'll let me see the forest?"

The hybrid shrugged. "You'll have to ask her that. But don't get your hopes up."

All of a sudden, there was a huge gust of wind that came out of nowhere, and the construction part of the school broke apart and started falling. All the students screamed in fear and ran for safety, but a female student didn't have time to run, so she put her arms over her head to protect herself. Luckily, Chad was fast enough to run over and use his own body as a shield. Ones everything stopped, Chad tossed the steel beam off of him and rolled his shoulders.

The tall teen looked at the girl. "You okay?" He asked.

She nodded. "Yeah, I'm fine, just shaken up," She replied.

After all of that, all the students along with Ichigo, Chad, and Orihime walked into the school.

"I can't believe that just happened," Keigo said. "I mean that was just too weird how those steel beams just fell, you know what I mean?"

"I'm just glad no one got hurt," Ichigo said. "But you are right, it is weird," He said too softly that only Chad and Orihime heard it, and they nodded their heads in agreement. Uryu went up to them and showed that he also believed that what just happened couldn't have been normal.

Ichigo looked up to Uryu and saw that the Quincy moved his head to show that he wants to talk to all of them after school to check things out. He nodded his head at his friend to say that he understood.

So when school was out, they got ready to see what's up.

It's evening now, and Ichigo, Chad, Orihime, and Uryu are where the damaged construction now lies. Uryu has his hand over one of the steel beams, trying to sense any form of reishi there.

"Sense anything, Uryu?" Ichigo asked.

The Quincy stood up. "Faintly, but I can't tell who it's from. It doesn't feel like a Hollow's, or a Shinigami's," He replied.

"I don't think a Shinigami would do this. But you could never be too sure," Ichigo said, but then he remembered something Rukia and Renji told him. "It could have been a sinner from Hell." His friends look at him with raised eyebrows. Ichigo wondered why they were looking at him like that, but then remembered that he didn't tell them why Rukia and Renji were in the World of the Living in the first place. "Oh, I didn't tell you, did I?" He scratched his head with a laugh. "That's why Rukia's here with Renji, trying to find the sinners," He explained.

"What do you mean sinners?" Orihime asked.

"I remember Toshihiro telling me about them. They're humans that did bad things when alive and were sent to Hell. They shouldn't be able to escape Hell though. How did they do that?" Ichigo tried to think, but his train of thought was cut off by an explosion coming from the part that their class room is, or was.

"Oh no, Tatsuki was still in there!" Orihime said frighten behind her hands.

"Let's go see if they're okay!" Ichigo said determined.

They ran into the room and saw the hole in the wall that was made by the explosion. They looked around and saw their friends Keigo, Tatsuki, and Mizurio. Orihime ran over to Tatsuki while calling out her name and bent down to check on her; Chad and Ichigo doing the same thing for the others. Their friends were hurt, but not too badly, and were unconscious.

"Who could have done this?" Orihime asked.

'Good thing Brielle isn't here, or else she would have complained about what Orihime just said,' Ichigo thought.

"It was me!" A voice called out above them. Ichigo and his friends looked up just in time to see the ceiling get bashed in by a really big, fat person wearing a black cloak-like thing. "Ichigo Kurosaki…"

~Meanwhile Ichigo was on his way to school~

Brielle got to the Dark Forest and into the clearing looking for Ice Fang. But it would appear that he find her first. "Darkness!" Brielle turned to look behind her when she heard her soul name being called.

Darkness is the name that Brielle was given when she first came into an existence as a soul. The name Brielle is the one Ichigo and the other humans call her, because that's the name that her human parents, Masaki and Isshin, gave her. Dark Dragon was just a title she was given when she became leader, and the Dark Beings only call her that when it's important.

The one that call her by her soul name was Ice Fang; a fluffy black wolf pup with silver eyes, icy-blue paws and tail tip came running up to her.

"Hello, Fang. I was looking for you, but it seems you found me instead," Brielle laughed. "I see that your training on knowing when someone shows up in the forest is improving." She smiled.

"Yup, that my dad said!" Fang said cheerfully. "Oh yeah, speaking of my dad, he wanted me to tell you that he along with 49 other wararks* went to the World of Darkness because some human soul were sent there," He reported with wonder. He never went on one of the hunts when humans show up in their world, but that's because he's still too young. He knows that the humans did bad things to nature, and that they get punished for it, but he doesn't know how it's done.

Brielle looks at Fang with her head tilted to the side. "Please tell me that he at least went to visit her first before going. He could be there for days or even weeks. But since you said 'humans' means that there's more than one, that means he might be there longer than that!" Brielle's voice was rising with each sentence. She was hoping that Midnight Ice went to visit before leaving, or else she's beating his little, fluffy tail for it.

"I saw him go there before leaving. He told me to wait for you though," Fang explained, his eyes wide and innocent with his head moving closer to his leader and godmother while tilting his head.

Brielle sighed, "Good, let's go see your mother." They walked to the other side of the clearing and kept moving till they made it to a lake surrounded by fog. The fog was really a rift to the World of Darkness that led them to a lake that had a little island in the center of it, and on the island was a huge, dark purple crystal. On the other side of the lake was a clearing with dens and a big rock, but that's not where they were going.

Brielle and Fang walked the other way where there were grave markers. They walked up to one of them that had the name 'Blue Winter' carved into the stone. Winter was a white she-wolf with silver eye like her son Fang and blue wind swirls at the corner of them, and blue tail tip.

Winter was Fang's mother and Midnight's mate, but she passed not long after Fang was born. No, she didn't die from giving birth, but from her old pack. Her old pack kicked her out for being a runt and Brielle took her in. They killed her because she was walking in their territory, but that's part of Brielle's, and Winter had the right to walk through it. You see, if a Dark Bring is part of Brielle's clan, they can go anywhere they like in her territory, but there are others that make territories in her own as long as they ask for permission.

Winter's old pack wasn't from Brielle's territory but from Stone Wolf's, one of the five leaders of this world, and one of the oldest. When Winter was killed, Brielle and Midnight hunted down the pack and killed them.

Brielle shook her head to get rid of the thought, this was long before she and Ichigo made a soul bond. Fang is almost fully grown. Dark Beings age at a much slower rate, kinda like the Shinigami.

After Fang was done talking to Winter's grave, they left to go back to the World of the Living and the Dark Forest.

Once they got back to the clearing, a bird, that is really a water phoenix, came up to them. They had an ice blue horn on their forehead and two long ones at the corner of their eyes. Their eyes are icy-blue; their beak is a slightly darker blue to the rest of their body. Their wings are blue, but have ice blue high lights at the top of the feather. Their legs are a lighter blue to their body with darker blue claws. Like their wings, the tail feathers are blue with icy-blue high lights, but the high lights are at the tip of the feathers.

"Dark Dragon, someone is here to see you. She said that she's here to test you for something in you human form," The phoenix said in a female voice.

"Thank you Aqua Feather. I'll go see what it is they want to test me for." Brielle walked over to the rock to see who this newcomer could be.

I know, you're all holding on by a twig on the side of a cliff. Don't worry, you'll find out who it is in the next chapter. They're not my OC though; I'll tell you who's it is in the next chapter. And look, you guys learned more about my OCs. There is a reason why there is so much info for these guys. It's because I'm writing a book with them. ;) I have 3 chapters done in it. I have no idea how many chapters there are going to be in it to be honest. Brielle's name is Darkness within the book, so I made it her soul name in my fanfics. I've been trying to get that info in here for so long now, and I finally got her name in here! YEAH! XD

Ichi: I feel bad for Ice Fang. :(

Enj/Bri: Understandable; you lost your own mother, so you have an idea how he feels.

Ichi: How old was he?

Enj/Bri: Like 1.

Ichi: He doesn't even remember. That makes me feel even more bad. :C

Shiro: How did Midnight deal?

Enj/Bri: Got told off by Darkness.

Shiro: You're not going to say anymore than that, are you?

Enj/Bri: If I get my book published, then yes, I'm not saying anything. I'll be spoiling it.

Ichi: But you already gave them something.

Enj/Bri: Something not important to the plot. Heck, it has nothing to do with the plot at all.

Ichi: So…what you're saying it that it was okay to say it?

Enj/Bri: Yup! ^-^

Shiro: Smart… O.O

Enj/Bri: Please review! ;)
