The Weasley family, Hermione and the Kurosaki's were getting ready to head to King's Cross station. Ginny was hoping to see Harry at Hogwarts. It has been a month since he started his training.

A week before Yuzu and Karin had a lot of fun when they went to Diagon Ally and got their school supplies and their new wands. They were fascinated with all the magical shops and all the magical people around them.

Everyone got to King's Cross station without any mishaps and everyone went safely through the barrier that separated platform nine and three-quarter from the muggles. Yuzu and Karin were a bit worried until they got through to the other side. They gasped when they saw the Hogwarts Express.

Ginny and everyone else got inside and found an empty compartment. They sat down and Ginny couldn't wait until she got to school to see Harry. As Ron was just about to close the compartment door when there was a rustling of air and Harry and Ichigo seemingly appeared out of nothing.

Ginny jumped up in surprise. "Harry! What are you doing here?"

Harry grinned and hugged her. "I'm not going to miss the train ride to Hogwarts if I can help it."

Harry, Ginny, and Ichigo sat back down and Hermione looked at them. "So I take it you completed the training?"

Harry nodded. "I have to go the rest of the way on my own now."'

Ichigo grinned. "I've pounded everything I could into him."

Then the train lurched forward and started heading for Hogwarts.

******************

Voldemort was in his study at Malfoy Manor when Lucius Malfoy entered. Voldemort looked up at him coldly. "What is so important that you must disturb me?"

Lucius Malfoy looked at the Dark Lord warily. "My Lord, there seems to be a strange person just outside the Manor's boundaries. He has a sword and has requested to speak to you."

Voldemort sat back in his chair. He has a sword and has a strange air about him. Maybe he had some connection with that strange person he fought at Private Drive. "Send him in."

Lucius Malfoy bowed. "Yes, my Lord." He hurried to bring the person to his master. He returned a minute later with the man.

"Leave us Lucius." Voldemort commanded and Malfoy obediently left the room leaving Voldemort alone with the strange man. Voldemort looked him over. He was around six feet well built and has an air of superiority around him. He looked to be around thirty and has shoulder length black hair. "Who are you and what do you want?"

Ringestu regarded Voldemort in front of him. He really didn't look much of a man at all. Tall and bony looking. Snake like and deformed. Like an Arrancar made badly. Ringestu wondered why Lord Aizen told him that this person was to be treated in respect and not to be crossed. Well for now anyways. "I am here to speak to you about a matter that can benefit my Lord and yourself."

Voldemort looked at him curiously. "Do you by any chance know a person called Ichigo Kurosaki?"

Ringestu eyes widened. The Kurosaki that defeated Ulquiorra the forth Espada? This Dark Lord knew of him? "You have fought Kurosaki? He is a very powerful Vizard. He must have not fought you at full strength though."

Voldemort looked at Ringestu carefully. "And why is that?"

Ringestu regarded him coldly. "Because you would be dead."

Voldemort sneered at him. "No one is more powerful than I!"

Ringestu smirked at Voldemort. This man was about to get a huge wake up call. He knew what these wizards were capable of but with his speed no spell could touch him. "Believe what you want. My Lord wishes to work together with you to kill Kurosaki and I believe you want Harry Potter dead."

Voldemort nodded. "Your kind have strange abilities and we must seem the way to you. I believe your Lord and I have much to discuss. Go back to him and he himself must speak to me and not one of his underlings."

Ringestu fought not to kill this man on the spot. He dare demand that he speak to Lord Aizen as if they were equals? "I will speak to him immediately. You will not have to wait long." With that he turned around and left the mansion. Then he opened a Garganta and left back to Hueco Mundo.

Ringestu hurried through the halls of the large castle and into the throne room. He walked up to Lord Aizen and knelled in front of him. "Lord Aizen, the wizard Dark Lord wishes only to speak to you personally."

Aizen smirked. "Then I will do so." He knew that Voldemort wouldn't be treated like he was weaker than himself. It's better to let him believe that he was equal to him for the time being. He opened a Garganta directly into Voldemort's study and stepped through it.

Voldemort eyes widened with shock as a black portal like rift just tore itself into reality right in front of him. He pulled out his wand and stared t it warily. He watched as a person walked out of it and the rift closed behind him. The man turned to him and said. "I believe you wanted to speak to me in person, Lord Voldemort."

Voldemort looked at the man thoughtfully. He had an air of superiority and mystery about him. He said his name without a trace of fear. Just by looking at him he knew that he was very powerful and he decided to treat him the same for now. "And you must be Lord Aizen."

Aizen regarded Voldemort for a moment. "You have unique abilities, as do I. I think we can learn much from each other to further our goals."

Voldemort sneered at him coldly. "I don't take to imposter's kindly." Then he flicked his wand almost lazily and the illusionary Aizen vanished and was replaced by Ringestu.

Back in his throne room Aizen's eyes widened in surprise. He was able to see through his Zanpaktou's ability that easily? Maybe there was much more to these wizards than meets the eye. He immediately opened another Garganta and stepped through it into Voldemort's study. Aizen looked at Voldemort and grinned. "I apologize for my deception. You easily saw through my illusion. If you don't mind me asking how did you do that?"

Voldemort looked at Aizen and sneered. "I know that you underestimated magic and what it is capable of. That will be your greatest mistake. You are under the impression that we wizards can only do magic with our wands. I however can use magic wandlessly. I simply looked into your underlings mind to see if he was Aizen or not. I know that you are the true Aizen."

Aizen kept his face neutral as he took in this information. He could see into his mind? How is that possible? If he could then all his plans could be exposed. Maybe it would be more prudent to kill him now.

Voldemort grinned. "Kill me eh?"

Aizen looked at Voldemort calmly. "I can kill you instantly. I can move much faster that you can cast spells."

Voldemort smiled evilly. "Is that so? Perhaps. I have seen how fast you Soul Reapers can move. What makes you think I haven't come up with a counter? But you would gain nothing from killing me anyways. I know you have plans but do not worry as you said I probably wouldn't be able to cast the full Legilimens spell on you before you would attack. I can only see your surface thought at the moment."

Aizen regarded his options. Kill him or work with him. "I think we can benefit from each other's unique abilities if we work together."

Voldemort nodded. "What do you have in mind?"

Aizen had Ringestu leave. Then he turned to Voldemort. "I think we should have Ringestu test Potter so see what he's now capable of."

Voldemort smirked. "You think Potter can defeat Ringestu?"

Aizen nodded. "Ichigo Kurosaki is still alive. Your curse did not kill him. And Kurosaki has trained Potter. Ringestu will probably die as he is only my thirteenth most powerful Arrancar but we will see what Potter is capable of."

"But if Ichigo is with Potter won't he just kill Ringestu before he could do anything?" Voldemort asked.

Aizen smiled. "Ichigo will let Potter fight him. I think he is confident that Potter is powerful enough to win."

Voldemort smirked. "That is fine but ingests will have to threaten something Potter cares about or he won't fight at his best."

Aizen looked thoughtful for a moment. "I will instruct Ringestu to attack him when the train arrives at Hogsmeade station. He will fight to protect the students."

Voldemort regarded that. "But what about collateral damage? I do not want the student to get killed. Some of them are loyal to me in the school."

"If Potter cannot handle him then Ichigo will step in to protect the students. Either way we will still have the same end result." Aizen said.

"Ichigo is powerful enough to take him out that easily?" Voldemort asked.

Aizen smirked. "Kurosaki is very powerful indeed. Ringestu is only my thirteenth most powerful Arrancar. After the number one Arrancar, there are the ten Espada that are unique Arrancar that are much more powerful that the normal Arrancar. Ichigo defeated my forth Espada. Ichigo could take out Ringestu in an eye blink if he wanted to."

Voldemort nodded. "Fine then let Ringestu test Potter. I think we will accomplish much together Lord Aizen."

****************

Harry and the others were enjoying the train ride as they headed to Hogwarts. Yuzu and Karin were excited and a little afraid of the Sorting Ceremony that they will happen when they get there. They were almost Hogsmeade the compartment door opened and in walked Malfoy and his goons Crabbe and Goyle.

Malfoy sneered at Harry. "Looks like Potter could only get a filthy blood traitor." He said looking at Ginny with disgust. He then glared at Yuzu and Karin. "Two more little Mudbloods are coming to taint the school as well."

Ichigo stood up, as did Harry. Ichigo stepped up to Malfoy. "I will tell you this once. Stay away from my sisters and leave us alone. We don't want to waste out time with pathetic powerless idiots like you."

Malfoy smirked. "What do you know about power? I am of Pureblood, I cannot be compared to low life's like yourselves!"

Harry was about to answer when the train came to a stop at the Station. Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle left. Harry and the others gathered their things and they left the train. Most of the students were on the platform when it happened.

Ginny and most of the other students gasped as the air got really heavy and smothering. Many students fell to their knees and Ginny held onto Harry for support. "What's happening?"

Harry and Ichigo looked totally unaffected by the smothering Spiritual Pressure. "There is someone coming." Harry said.

Ringestu appeared about thirty feet in the air above Harry, Ichigo and the rest of the students. "I am here to challenge Harry Potter."

Harry looked coldly up at him. "I will not fight you here. There are students here."

Everyone was now looking up at the person seemingly standing in the air without a magical item supporting him.

Ringestu looked at Ichigo. "Kurosaki do not interfere. I wish to fight Potter myself. You can see to it that no students are harmed."

Ichigo regarded him. He sensed the limit of the Arrancar's Spiritual Pressure. He could take him without any difficulty. Ichigo shrugged. "Fine, Harry he's all yours. I'll protect the students."

Harry glanced at Ichigo. "Think I can take him? Do you know why he's here?"

Ichigo nodded. "You can take him. I think Aizen sent him here to test your abilities. He knows that this guy doesn't stand a chance against me. That's why he challenged you."

Harry nodded. He hugged Ginny. "I'll be fine Ginny. You stand back ok?"

Ginny nodded and shakily walked away from Harry. Ichigo went over to her. "Relax Harry can handle this guy. Your about to find out why it took Harry so much longer than it took me to complete my training."

Ringestu saw that they were ready and he used his sonido and drew his sword and disappeared. Everyone lost track of him except for Ichigo and Harry.

Ringestu appeared behind Harry and slashed his sword through the air to kill him. Before the blade could reach him Harry disappeared and reappeared fifty feet in the air. With his arms still crossed.

Harry looked down at Ringestu. "Better stop holding back your speed or is that as fast as you can move?"

Ringestu looked up at him and smirked. "Looks like you can handle yourself. I think this will be a good fight."

Harry looked down at Ichigo and Ichigo nodded. Harry gripped his sword. "I don't want to waste any time here tonight so I'll show you our difference in power." Harry pulled out his sword and raised his Spiritual Pressure.

The smothering air intensified as Harry increased his Spiritual Pressure. Ringestu's eyes widened and he fought to remain unaffected. This boy was that powerful already? Ringestu glanced at Ichigo who was completely unaffected by the Spiritual Pressure increase. Well he was just as powerful as an Espada. Ringestu now realized that he was just sent here to see what Potter was capable of. Aizen never expected for him to survive.

Harry pulled his sword out of the scabbard and disappeared from everyone's eyes with his Flash Step. Ringestu eyes widened and he lifted his sword and parried Harry's attack. The force was astounding. He knew that he was going to have to use his Resurrección to be any match for him. He used his sonido to try to get some distance from Harry but he kept with him easily. Almost lazily.

Harry attacked again sending Ringestu flying through the air. Ringestu flipped around backwards and stopped his momentum. He raised his sword above his head and a red aura glowed around it and engulfed his entire body. "Crush them, Antrozas". The red light grew blinding as he changed into his true form. Antennas grew from his forehead and his hands formed into pincer like claws. His body hardened and finally his transformation was complete. His original Hollow form was probably some sort of scorpion/ant combination. "Time to die Potter." He said and he lunged at Harry.

Harry watched his transformation and the increase in his Spiritual Power. He blocked his attack and was on the defensive as Ringestu attacked him again and again mercilessly with his pincers. One particularly hard blow launched Harry backwards and he was propelled towards the ground where a group of students were trying to move away but the Spiritual Force from Harry and Ringestu made their movements sluggish.

Ichigo saw Harry flying towards the group of students and rolled his eyes. He wasn't going to be able to stop himself in time. Ichigo used his Flash Step and easily moved the five students out of the line of fire. Harry hit the ground moments later and put a small crater in the ground in the process. "Come on Harry get serious already I want to go eat."

Harry got to his feet in the bottom of the hole and chuckled. "Ok fine." Harry flicked his left wrist and his wand shot out of the holster and into his hand. Harry raised his Spiritual Pressure sharply and his robes swirled around him and he glowed in a shining blue aura. Harry brought his wand and Zanpaktou together and said "Protect and defeat, Yuukai!" There was a shining white light and a when it was over Harry was holding his sword but it had changed. It was still the same length as normal but it was straight and was double-bladed. Near the guard it widened slightly and Harry's wand was fused with the sword.

Ringestu peered at Harry's released Zanpaktou and laughed. "Is that your Shiki? Your Zanpaktou barley changed at all. This will be easier than I thought." With that he rocked down towards Harry to strike a deadly blow with his pincers.

Harry calmly raised his sword and Ringestu attacked with such force a cloud of dirt and dust filled the air.

Ginny watched with apprehension as the dust settled. She gasped when it cleared. Harry was standing there with his sword raised slightly and Ringestu seemed to have attacked a blue shield that stopped him effortlessly. Ginny recognized the shield it was the Protego shield charm.

Ichigo saw the look of recognition on Ginny face. "That's right. Harry can cast spells much more powerful than normal. That is his Zanpaktou's ability, his wand is fused with the sword allowing him to cast the spell and then by channelling it through the rest of the blade the spell is infused with his Spiritual Pressure thereby increasing the spells power output significantly"

Harry looked at Ringestu. "You're better off leaving back to Hueco Mundo; you won't be able to get through this shield."

Ringestu glared at him in fury. "I won't run cowardly back to Aizen! I will die fighting first!" Then he started attacking Harry's barrier again and again but getting nowhere.

Harry sighed and infused the cutting curse into his sword. He pointed it at Ringestu and released the Protego charm and said. "Diffindo" The spell shot through the air and hit Ringestu's shoulder cutting straight through it.

Ringestu staggered back in pain and glared at Harry. Harry raised his sword again and his time charged his sword with many cutting curses. His sword glowed white and this time he didn't fire them at Ringestu. He instead formed them around his Zanpaktou and he lifted off from the ground and shot at Ringestu. Ringestu brought up his pincers to block the attack but Harry's blade infused with cutting curses cut through them easily and then straight through his chest cutting him clean in two.

With one last scream Ringestu last breath left him and he dissolved into nothingness. Harry flew back to the ground beside Ginny. He released his Shiki and brought his Spiritual Pressure back to normal.

All the students were able to move normally now and they got to their feet. They all looked at Harry and Ichigo with awe, wonder, and fear. Harry sheathed his sword and looked at Ginny. "Let's head over to the carriages."

Ichigo looked at all the still stunned students and yelled. "What ya all looking at!? Get to the carriages and up to the school, everything will be explained at the feast."

The students took one last look at Harry and Ichigo and then they all started heading towards the carriages and the first years towards the boats. Yuzu and Karin fell in with the rest of the first years and Harry, Hermione, Ron and the others climbed into a carriage. They were soon off towards Hogwarts.

Ron looked across at Harry. "So that was your Shikai right?"

Harry nodded. "My Shikai allows me to combine my magical spells with my Spiritual Pressure to create super powered spells."

Ginny sighed. "At least that guy wasn't very strong. He was sent here to test Harry right?"

Ichigo nodded. "That is the only logical reason. Aizen knows what I'm capable of and sending an Arrancar of that level to kill me would be pointless."

Hermione looked at Ichigo in understanding. "That's why it challenged Harry and didn't want you to interfere because he knew it stood no chance against you. That much was obvious when you were completely unaffected by its Spiritual Pressure."

Ron looked at Harry curiously. "Just how much is the power gap between you and Ichigo?"

Harry laughed. "I am close to Vice Captain Level. Ichigo is Captain Level and beyond if he has too. The difference between Vice Captain and Captain Level is significant. I still have a long ways to go."

Soon the carriage arrived at Hogwarts and they joined the rest of the students heading into the Great Hall. Harry and Ichigo attracted many odd looks as they both had swords with them and recently displayed some incredible powers. Harry and the others sat down at the Gryffindor table and soon the door to the side of the hall opened and the first years marched into the hall and up to the head table.

Dumbledore stood up and the students quieted down. "Firstly we will be sorting Ichigo Kurosaki, an exchange student from Japan."

Ichigo stood up and headed to the head table. Ichigo already knew the drill. He picked up the sorting hat and put it on. As soon as he did it cried "Gryffindor!" and Ichigo made his way back to his seat with the entire hall muttering about him.

Then the first years were sorted. When Yuzu and Karin Kurosaki came up everyone started muttering about if they were related to Ichigo. Sure enough the hat shouted Gryffindor for both of them and they happily made their way over to Ichigo and the others.

Then the feast appeared on their plates and everyone began eating. Ron ate everything within reach and Yuzu and Karin were amazed by the variety of food available. It seemed that there were foods from their culture there as well.

Karin looked at Yuzu between bites and said. "Much better than your cooking Yuzu."

Yuzu stuck her tongue at her and everyone laughed. Seamus Finnegan looked at Harry. "How did you and Ichigo do what you did? And who was that other guy?"

Harry looked at him. "I expect Dumbledore will mention it after the feast and will explain everything then."

Seamus nodded and he began eating again. After everyone had their fill Dumbledore stood up and the plates became sparkling clean again. Everyone looked up at Dumbledore to begin his speech.

Dumbledore peered at all the students before him and spoke. "I believe you all are wondering what exactly happened at Hogsmeade station." There were many whisperings and Dumbledore continued. "Ichigo Kurosaki and Harry Potter are Soul Reapers." Most of the students looked over at Harry and Ichigo in alarm. "There is a parallel world called the Soul Society that Soul Reaper's live. Soul Reaper's guide soul's after death to Soul Society. They are also responsible for purifying monster like creatures called Hollow. The one Mr. Potter fought was an Arrancar"

Many students were now looking at Harry, Ichigo, and Dumbledore in amazement. Dumbledore raised his hand and the students quietened down again. "This may be hard to believe but the Ministry of Magic have just recently made contact with the Soul Society and there will be more information about this in the mornings Prophet."

All the students stated talking amongst themselves as Dumbledore said the rest of his announcements and dismissed them to bed. The students left the Great Hall and most of them glanced at Ichigo and Harry and muttered about them but they just ignored it.

Harry and the others made their way to the Gryffindor tower and Hermione said the password and the portrait of the Fat Lady swung open and they climbed through the portrait hole. Hermione showed the first years where their dorms were and soon everyone was in their dorms getting ready for bed.

Harry hugged Ginny and kissed her softly. "Good night Ginny. I love you."

Ginny smiled at him. "I love you too, good night."

Harry, Ichigo, and Ron headed up to their dorm and inside they noticed that the room was enlarged and an extra bed was added with Ichigo's trunk. Everyone changed into their pyjamas and they all went to sleep.

A/N: Please review. I translated Harry's Zanpaktou name Yuukai with an English to Japanese translator. Yuukai is Fusion in English.
