Sorry that this one's so short. I haven't written a new chapter in a while because I've had a lot of work and other things going on.

Disclaimer: I DO NOT own the character Melody. She is an OC created by ILuvTheChipmunks and I have permission from ILuvTheChipmunks to use her in this crossover. I am also giving ILuvTheChipmunks full credit for the character that she rightfully deserves. If you want to add her to a story then you need to ask HER, NOT me.

Ch. 3 Arrancar Attacks?: Takeshi's Bankai Revealed

That night, as Satoshi lay asleep on the couch, Theodore approached him. Gently shaking him until he stirred. Satoshi looked at the little green-clad chipmunk with a blank expression as he asked, "What's wrong little guy?"

"I, I had a nightmare, about the Hollows," He replied to Satoshi with fear in his little voice.

Satoshi chuckled and said, "You don't have to worry about Hollows Theodore, I am a Captain. Do you understand what that means?"

"N-no."

"It means that I am one of the strongest Soul Reapers in the 13 Court Guard Squads. So if a Hollow attacks this place right now, Takeshi and I will be able to handle it."

Just then, an explosion shook the night. Takeshi was heard yelling, but it was unintelligable. Satoshi felt an unimaginable amount of Spiritual Pressure coming from the roof where Takeshi was keeping watch. He had only felt this kind of Spiritual Pressure once before, but it just couldn't be, could it?

As Dave and the others ran out of the bedrooms, Satoshi rushed towards the door and was outside in a flash, Zanpakuto drawn and in hand. He looked up, and sure enough, he saw it. The Garganta (Throat), the tunnel that Hollows use to enter the world of the living from Hueco Mundo (Hollow World). And standing there, in the center of the black cavity of an opening, was nothing less than a Arrancar, a Hollow that has ripped off its mask, thus gaining Soul Reaper Powers. Arrancar wore all white clothing, and carried a Zanpakuto, just like a Soul Reaper, but different, very different.

The Arrancar looked down at Takeshi and Satoshi as the others ran outside to see what was happening.

"So, it seems a couple of Soul Reapers have decided to die trying to protect my supper," he said with a hispanic accent.

Takeshi was in the enemies face in an instant, the two swords colliding in a clash of sparks. "I'm Takeshi Yamashita, Captain of Squad 5, and the man who will kill you," he said to the Arrancar before turning to Satoshi, "Don't interfere brother! I want to show them just how strong I am now!"

"Don't worry Takeshi, I won't join you unless you request it!" Satoshi replied.

"What is that?" the othes all said stimultaneously while pointing to the Arrancar.

"Don't worry about it for now, I'll explain it all later," Satoshi told them.

Takeshi and the Arrancar separated just long enough to charge and collide again. The Arrancar laughed in Takeshi's face at his attempts to fight him and said, "I am Antonio Pevedra, and I will kill you!" The Arrancar pushed Takeshi away and brandished his sword with a few fancy movements.

"Corrupt all dreams, Pesadilla Demonio!" (Nightmare Demon)

A small explosion of Spiritual Pressure surrounded the Arrancar, and then it was gone. The Arrancar had gained a hard shell-like armor all over his body, and a helmet shaped Hollow mask that sat on top of his head. It looked like some grotesque demonic creature. Takeshi knew what had happened, the Arrancar had released his Resurrección (Resurrection). The Resurrección, an Arrancars Zanpakuto release, allows the Arrancar to retain his/her true Hollow form, thus gaining the use of their Hollow powers. Takeshi knew that now was not the time to waste, their was only one way to end this fight quickly.

"BAN-KAI!"

Takeshi dissapeared in an explosion of Spiritual Pressure much greater than Antonio's. When he reappeared, he was wearing black Samurai armor, and had demonic angel wings that oozed shadows. In his hand was his Zanpakuto, still shaped like a regular sword.

"Soudai Na Akumu Ryuu!" (Grand Nightmare Dragon)

Spreading his wings, Takeshi flew towards the Arrancar, only to see his enemy quickly fleeing from him through the Garganta.

"COWARD!" Takeshi shouted at his enemy as he watched Antonio flee.

As Satoshi watched, he heard a small squeak. He began to search for the noise. Whatever was making it was obviously crying, and he wanted to know what it was, but it didn't take long for him to discover the source.

He turned around to see the others for the first time since rushing out to assist Takeshi. His eyes scanned them, falling to rest on a wriggling bundle of blankets and fur in Brittany's arms. Brittany smiled at Satoshi as she calmed the thing and said, "Well, I was hoping we could avoid this introduction until tomorrow, but, Satoshi, Takeshi, I'd like you to meet Melody. Our daughter." She wrapped her arm around Alvin as she said the last two words.

Takeshi landed lightly on the ground, and said the most unexpected thing when he saw the little baby chipmunk, "Can I hold her?"
