It had been days now. Ten days since Tadashi had died. Ten days since Saburo's blood was found in the arena. Ten days since Captain Aizen died. It had been a couple days since all but one Ryoka was caught. The orange haired shinigami.

Soifon knew that if anyone of them killed Tadashi it had to be the orange haired shinigami…but she could not explain the other blood at the crime scene. The Sixth Division had examined the blood, finding strange results.

From the blood samples they were shinigami but the only blood that could be named was Tadashi's. The fourth Division had sent some squad members there too and reported that no one, not even Tadashi, could survive the blood loss.

Squad Two was in dismay. Squad Two was known for being a group of assassins. Cold, efficient, brutal by all means. But ever since Soifon and Tadashi became Captain and Lieutenant things changed. Of course they still killed for missions but they didn't abandon squad members like they used too. Hell, they even had once a week parties where they drank sake and ate amazing food, cooked by Captain Unohana who was a frequent visitor.

But now, instead of a party, the whole squad sat on the grass fields, bowing their heads in silence. Some cried, some just sat there trying their best not too. The most affected was Matsuri Kudo and Soifon. Matsuri would openly cry, despite her strong nature. Tadashi had reminded her of her brother so much that she had found him to be like the older brother figure. And when she awoke from the hospital and found out what happened, she had grown angry and had almost blown up the hospital. But after the anger faded she grieved for his loss.

Soifon had actually went out in West Rukongai and blown up a good portion of the mountain. Of course she was reprimanded for this but she couldn't find it in herself to care.

After they caught the Ryoka she had "talked" to them. They told her that none of them encountered any shinigami by the description. Except Ganju. He had told her that his friend Ichigo, the orange haired shinigami she presumed, told her that he let them go on.

At first Soifon couldn't believe it but then it hit her. He himself had said that he would help Rukia. And he did so by letting the Ryoka pass. But that didn't explain his blood.

Soifon was now in her office, a stack of paper work blocking her view. She thought back on it and remembered that she had never once forgotten about her paperwork…until now. Soifon was inches away from setting the pile on fire when two members of the Omnitsukido appeared in her office.

The one of the right, Lee, if she wasn't mistaken, spoke first, "Lady Soifon, we have received word from some of the members that were tailing Third Seat Ichirou of ten days ago."

Soifon's eyes grew wide and she grit her teeth, "And your telling me this now?"

The left, Shane, spoke, "My Lady, this is the first we've seen of you since then. We searched everywhere but we could not find you."

Soifon growled, "I was at our…" She had just been about to say "our spot" the spot in the forest where Tadashi and her would meet to just sit and talk but she couldn't. Instead she just nodded her head and waved her hands for them to continue.

Lee, "From the reports of Eighth Seat Kyoshi Third Seat Ichirou was last seen with Saburo Takeshi of Squad Four heading towards the arena." Soifon's eyes grew wide and she shot up out of her seat.

"Send word to Captain Byakuya immediately!" They nodded and shunpoed out of the room. None of the three sensed Matsuri with her ear to the door.

Lieutenant Isane was sitting at her desk, writing on a piece of paper. On her desk were the usual things. A cup full of pencils and paper, pictures, and her graduation diploma from the Shinigami Academy. She had three pictures, one of her and her sister Kiyone. Another of her and her captain. And the last one a picture of her and Saburo. In the picture she was bending over him, a hand ruffling his hair while she was beaming, smiling with her eyes closed. He was smiling but his eyes were looking to the left, as if he was trying not to notice the picture was being taken.

She smiled slightly before she rubbed furiously at her eyes. Saburo Takeshi was the enigma of the Fourth Squad. He had an attack zanpakuto and attack Bankai. He wasn't the best at Kido but he still was able to rise to the Third Seat. The reason why was because he inherited his mothers healing abilities, simply using his reiatsu and he would be able to heal. And not to mention he was young, the same age as Captain Hitsugaya.

But, as much as people might envy him, his loss was a blow to the Fourth Division. He had a lot of friends there. Some were more like family than friends though. Like herself. She saw herself as his older sister, who would help him and teach him what to do. Even Captain Unohana saw herself as family to him.

Isane leaned back in her chair and stared at the roof. She knew she should be grieving for him, crying or even screaming but…but something told her not to. Usually when someone she knew died she would feel like she herself had something ripped from her but she didn't feel that now.

"Lieutenant Isane."

Isane turned in her chair to see Captain Unohana, smiling at her, "You need some rest; we have a big day tomorrow."

Isane nodded and her captain turned and walked into her room. Isane sighed once more before doing the same.

The sound of dripping was heard, hitting the ground at a slow pace. Yourichi, in her human form, was smiling at the shinigami in front of her, "So you ready?"

The shinigami smiled back, his eyes obscured by a lock of red hair, "You kidding? I was born ready."

A cough was heard to his left, sitting in the spa was the orange haired shinigami Ichigo Kurosaki, "I still don't see how you found us here. Not to mention Renji too."

A chuckle was heard behind a rock and after a few seconds Renji Abarai appeared, "I simply followed him here. To tell the truth it was easier than I expected, seems like Squad Two isn't as strong as they say."

The red haired shinigami laughed briefly before straightening to his full height, "I would advise against saying that." With that said he disappeared appeared behind Renji, his zanpakuto drawn and at Renji's neck, "I'm a nice guy, just not if you insult my squad."

Yourichi put her hands up and waved them defensively, "Hey hey there! We're all friends here." She received three blank looks, "Alright then…" Yourichi just turned and walked away before she frowned.

She couldn't even see him move. She sighed before turning around, "I'd advice against messing with that Lieutenant. Who knows how angry Tadashi could get?"

Rukia tried to narrow her eyes as the rays of sunlight shone in her eyes. Under her she could see the various Captain and Lieutenants. She couldn't hear some of them muttering about her, how it was fare or not. She tried to look for more familiar faces, Tadashi, Renji, her brother. But she only saw Soifon. Even now, as she saw some of the Kido Corp load up the Sokyoku, she wished to see Ichigo. Even though she had told him she would never forgive him if he followed her she still wanted to see him. She also wanted to see Tadashi but for some reason he had never visited her like she thought he would.

Did he give up on her? Rukia sighed once more before staring straight ahead as the Sokyoku turned into a phoenix looking apparition, with the power of over a million zanpakuto. She closed her eyes as the phoenix flew at her.

Goodbye.

The sound of a collision made her open her eyes. She did so and what she saw made her gasp. In front of her, with his back turned to the Sokyoku blocking it with his zanpakuto was Ichigo.

"Hey Rukia." She tried not to smile but the smile found itself on her face.

"What? No "hello Tadashi"?" Rukia's eyes grew wide and she turned her head as far as she could. Sitting in a crouch on the support beams was Lieutenant Tadashi, his zanpakuto drawn on, resting on his right shoulder. He was wearing a cloak over his top, much like Ichigo wore but his had sleeves.

Tadashi reached over and picked up Rukia by her collar. He drew back his left hand and threw her down towards the ground. Her eyes wide with comical horror. She didn't see Renji catch her and start to run. All she saw was Ichigo appearing and knocking out Lieutenant Chojiro with just a punch. She could faintly see a tall dark skinned woman knocking Soifon away before she could shunpo towards them.

Tadashi jumped down from the support beams and landed in front of the other captains. The Captain Commander had shunpoed away, Captain Ukitake and Shunsui and his Lieutenant Nanao did as well after they destroyed the Sokyoku. Captain Unohana had grabbed Lieutenant Chojiro and had started healing him while Lieutenant Isane had drawn her zanpakuto. He could see that his older brother was there, just standing and smiling insanely.

"So…how's everything been?"

Lieutenant Isane almost growled, "Where were you?"

"Dying. Then I woke up in this rocky place. Then Yourichi told me what happened."

"That's not what I mean!" Her eyes held a fury in it that he had never seen before, "Where were you when he needed you?"

Tadashi cocked his head, "Who?"

Isane growled out, "Saburo you bastard! Where were you? The older fucking brother?" Everyone's eyes grew wide; they had never heard her curse before.

Tadashi felt his stomach drop, "What…what do you mean Isane?"

"HE'S DEAD!"

Tadashi couldn't answer her, instead he turned to Ichirou who had stopped smiling and put a hand on his zanpakuto. "What did you do to him you bastard?"

Ichirou just chuckled, "Well not much. Just cut his arm off and killed him…so nothing much."

Tadashi felt his stomach drop. He felt his heart stop and for him everything froze. For just a rare moment he felt something inside him stir, a feeling, an urge. Rage. Tadashi's fingers twitched and he found himself wanting to kill his older brother Ichirou. He screamed, his black reiatsu pulsing wildly and pressing down on everyone there.

Isane choked and fell to her knee, what he said just now, Ichirou did it? But why? And this pressure, this reiatsu, Tadashi you've been holding back on us! This reiatsu is Captain Level! But now I know, you can do it, avenge Saburo for me, for everybody!

Tadashi roared with anger and shunpoed, drawing his zanpakuto as he appeared in front of Ichirou. Ichirou's hysteric smile grew wider as he pulled out his own zanpakuto to block it.

"I'LL KILL YOU, ICHIROU TAKESHI!"

Ichirou, his hands slightly shaking from the force of Tadashi's blows, leaned forward towards Tadashi, "Then try it, Little Brother. Avenge Saburo and kill me! I am the reason why Mother is gone and Father is dead! I destroyed all of Saburo's dreams! You should have seen his face Tadashi, as he unleashed everything he had against me and I wiped him out as easily as flicking a fly!"

Tadashi growled, "Don't you dare..." Ichirou gasped as he lost his footing, "Call my little brother weak!"

Ichirou laughed as he was flung throw the air over the forest. Tadashi appeared over him, his left fist held back in a palm. He thrusted it forward, "Tessho!" The palm connected with Ichirou's stomach and sent him plummeting down to the earth at an insane speed.

All over seireitei Shinigami were turning on Shinigami, friend turning on friend. Brothers fighting brothers.

Pure chaos.
