'My my Kikuchi-san everything shall all be explained to everyone here now come let us all go to my shop it will be easier to explain everything there' the voice that Urahara was using was so serious it was enough to put me on high alert for whatever that thing was, it was enough to put Urahara in a more serious mood than his usual cheerful and creepy self and this concerned me greatly.
Narrator's POV
As Urahara sat down at the little round table, while Yoruichi, in her cat form, jumped up onto the table in front of him and the others simple spread out around the room
all of them taking tea from Tessai when he offered it to them. Chad sat with the twins on each side of him after Ichigo's death he had become close to the small family
and tried to help out if he could he had grown especially close to Karin because in many ways she was just like Ichigo, and Chad would do anything to have something to remind him of the fiery teen that he cared for in more ways than one.
Orihime sat to the left of Yuzu the two girls were very much like each other and though there was a few years between them they were good friends almost like sisters
to each other and Tatsuki sat to the right of Orihime holding her hand trying her best to give the kind hearted girl some comfort from the monster that they just saw.
Ishida sat to the right of Karin and to the right of him was was Ishin. When everyone was settled Urahara looked to the still standing and silent Shinigami waiting for her
to break the silence first. After Rukia had collected her thoughts and what she thought should be addressed first she finally took a set next to the man that had a goatee and looked to the ex captain Urahara Kisuke " Urahara-san I think the first question that we all want to know is what was that thing it wasn't hollow or shinigami so just what was it?"
with a deep breath Urahara looked around at all that had followed him to his humble abode looking for something, but what they didn't exactly know, after finding
whatever he was looking for in them he spoke in a different tone than when he had called out to them and in a way it had put all of them on high alert " That thing as
you called him Kikuchi-san was a boy known as Ichigo Kurosaki, he was 16 teen years old when he died I have been looking for him for two years and no matter what I
have tried the boy has always slipped through my fingers. From the few times that I have managed to even get a little bit of his reiatsu like tonight I have found that he
isn't hollow nor is he shinigami but he has both reiatsu signatures in his own but there is one more type mixed in with his and I have finally found out what it is…" Urahara paused there hoping to give the others time to assorbe what he had just said. Even he needed some time after all it wasn't easy to admit that he couldn't catch
the eldest child of the Kurosaki's when he was one of the smartest people to ever be in/from soul society the ex Captain of the 12 th division, and this was a major blow to his pride.
The next to speak was Isshin shockingly enough " So Kisuke if you couldn't catch him then that means the blears that I'm sure everyone here has been seeing is him.
Kisuke do you have any idea what my son- no that thing wants from us" the twins sat in shock they had never seen their father so serious before except on the rare few occasions and there were never many of those or when he was treating a patient that was the only times he was truly serious. Kisuke looked to Isshin and with a look
that plainly said sorry he spoke " I have not one clue as to want he wants anymore, but I can tell you that because of him Karakura is a lot safer now for some reason
though this places is the most spiritually rich many hollows have gone out of their way to stay clear of this town, and the only reason I can come to is that Ichigo whatever the reason may be protecting this town" silence followed after his statement no one knew how to react to this information it was all a lot to take in.
After only a few minutes they all felt the shockwave of power that was realised and there was no mistaking who it came from …. After all it could only mean one thing.
In the sands of Hueco Mundo there stood two lone swords awaiting the arrival of their master that had placed them there a long time ago. Ichigo stood in the distance
away from the swords knowing he was still unworthy of wielding his true blades the one he had with him was one of his own making, yet it was not Tensa and Zangetsu and so every time he used it he felt as if he was betraying his true swords. Looking around he noticed that he was the only living thing that stood this close to the two
swords and he figured that all others would be eradicated if they had come this close to the two swords. But now was no longer time to think of how unworthy he felt to wield Tensa and Zangetsu now was the time he faced his fears and went home there was a war coming soon and everyone was ill prepared for the man behind it all. Walking closer to the two swords he could feel how lonely they felt that he would not wield them, but now he would fix that mistake and he would wield them with pride once more.
Now standing in front of the swords buried in the ground Ichigo knelt down in front of them and spoke to them for the first time in ages " I am sorry that I have left you both for so long, but I am here now, and we shall never part again until I am well and truly dead for good". For the first time since that incident the swords that had once radiated an aura of killing intent and loneliness they radiated pure joy to once more be with their master their king again.
Pulling Zangetsu the longer of the two blades from the ground and dropping the one he had on his back to the ground he placed the true sword there on his back then
leaning over to pull Tensa the shortest of the two from the ground he placed that sword on his hip and once more he was complete, now came the hard part taking the
mask he had placed there in remembrance of Tensa and Zangetsu when he would not use them, and slowly over time he became accustomed to the weight and feel of the mask on his face but he no longer needed this form. With his mind set Ichigo lifted his hand wrapping it around the edge of the mask taking a deep breath and
getting ready for the pain that was sure to come when for the first time in so long, he heard Zangetsu's voice again " It's been a long time Kingy are you sure you wanna take off the mask now It's gonna hurt and there'll be changes to your other form from the amount of time you've been using my power alone?"
It had been so long since I had heard that watery voice of my hollow, I could feel my chest tightening from the emotions of just hearing one of my Zanpaktou voices. But now wasn't the time to be getting all emotional, I needed to return to them and this form just wouldn't work anymore " It's time to let go of this form now Shiro" it
was the only reply I could give to him and the old man. With one last deep breath I ripped the hollow mask that I had been wearing for many years now, because it was no longer the power that would protect my family and friends at least not right now it wasn't.
3rd pov.
There was a large explosion all across Hueco Mundo every Hollow within a 400 mile radius got the worst of the backlash and the others only felt half of the original shock
wave. Their was so much power that was realised that the shockwave even destroyed a part of Las Noches alerting certain people that their was a being out there with a lot of power that they could find a use for. Many of the Hollows in Las Noches new that unique signature of power, and cowered in fear of what to was come, the being
was known to many of the Hollows as the uncrowned king for his true power was only seen once and that was a day engraved in the minds of all the hollows that had been their to witness it.
Hollow's from all over came to see the being to see if it was weakened by the power it had realised, but standing there in the center of a giant crater in the sand was not
a Hollow like what was expected nor was it a shinigami. The form was that of a humans with a towering height of 6'3" and with a strong build rippling with muscles, but
the most eye catching thing was the hair of the being in was a bright orange color that spiked all over the place and only just brushed his shoulders. Many of the older hollows that had been around for a long time knew that this being that wasn't hollow nor shinigami was not something to be messed with, though the being was in the
robes of a shinigami there were obvious signs that this thing was part hollow as well while one eye looked like that of normal human the other was yellow on black there were markings that went all over their body from the skin that was being shown.
Ichigo looked all around him to see all those that had gathered to him at the release of his power many stayed back not yet wanting to test their luck against him. Off in
the distance Ichigo could see three humanoid like figures observing him to see what he would do next, but Ichigo was never one to do what others expected him to do
he went over and beyond those expectations. " Hollows I want you to know this though I may no longer look like one of you I am and will forever be the uncrowned king of hueco mundo and if any doubt me attack karakura but be ready to never come back" hollows only understood power so in a display of power Ichigo took the long
sword on his back and with one swing of it half the hollows that had gathered were wiped out. With that as his parting Ichigo opened a gargantua and stepped through going back to Karakura to finally speak to his family and friends, it had been so long since he had last spoke to any of them only being able to watch them would no longer be enough to satisfy him.
