I awoke standing behind Ichigo kurosaki as he confronted a group of bullies who knocked over a memorial that was for a girl who was run over. That night I could feel the presence of a hollow, but I knew I couldn't do anything. The next day at school I saw a girl with short black hair, Rukia, the one who gave Ichigo access to his powers.

"Hey Ichigo, Rukia, follow me." I said after school. "I want to show you both something really cool."

I took them to a british police box "what is this?" Ichigo asked. I pulled the door open and it was the inside of a police box, then I closed it twisted the handle and opened the door and it was the park of a huge city at night.

"Go ahead." I told them, they went inside and I followed closing the door behind me. "Welcome to my ship." I said. All around us were conduits, khajiit, and drones. There was a celebration in the park and I had no idea why, then I remembered what day it was. It was a surprize party for my birthday.

"Hey do you guys mind staying?" I asked. Rukia shook her head no. "I can setup a drone guard to combat hollows." I said. then rukia asked "How do you know about hollows and will they be able to do the jobs of a soul reaper?"

"One, I am a soul reaper, just not an official one, second I have a Zanpakuto smelting and sealing center." I then pressed a button on my wrist communicator and a large, slim, humanoid drone appeared.

"SR-13, gather some troops and patrol karakura town, and make sure you're invisible to humans who can't see hollows." I said

"Understood." The drone said and he teleported away. We enjoyed the rest of the party, I explained how my ship has several districts, the simulated sky follows the pattern of earths, while enjoying one of Tom Sheldon's world famous margaritas. We returned to Ichigo's house, SR-13 was there, probably to give me a report. From the looks of the faces of Ichigo's family, they can see SR-13.

"We spotted 3 hollows and 5 lost souls, we dispatched the hollows but one of them ate one of the souls, we performed a konso for each soul." SR-13 reported. "Good, you are dismissed." I said. He disappeared, a few days of training went by, and Ichigo asked for a day off, Rukia started to get a little annoyed.

"Rukia, outside please." I said as I dragged her outside. "Look, tomorrow is the anniversary of Ichigo's mom's death, you see, it was before he knew he could see spirits, he saw a girl near a river, he ran after her not knowing she was a spirit, his mom landed on top of him, dead, so I ask you that if you're going to go, wear dark colors." I explained.

That day was pretty uneventful until a hollow showed, it confronted Ichigo, with his mom's image, Ichigo managed to cut off the tentacle that produced images, but the hollow started to run, I flash-stepped in front of the hollow and yelled "dance of the blood flower," I split ripka into a set of dual blades, spun, and released waves of red reishi. Rukia had a look of surprise. "You would not believe what I can do with my soul reaper powers." I said. "Wait, was that faster than your brother?" I asked.

"Yes, actually, how do you know my brother?" Rukia asked. I pressed a button on my wrist communicator and an orb that's a little bit bigger than my head appeared.

"These are recon drones, they are invisible, intangible, and multidimensional, they can go from the world of the living to the Soul Society to even Hueco Mundo. They record and upload everything important to a computer called the Codex, in fact, I have an extensive knowledge of the abilities of the thirteen guard squads. Any information that I need is uploaded to my cybernetic eye." I explained

"Wait, cybernetic eye" Ichigo asked

I reached up to my right eye and pulled it out, Ichigo almost had a heart attack. "Ok, ok, i'll put it back." I said. My vision out of it was blurry, I blinked twice and it was back to normal.

The next day we ran into a quincy, he said he hated soul reapers. "Hah, maybe, but were not technically soul reap-" I started, but I found why in his memories. "Whoa." I said. "That sucks."

"Huh, what do you mean?" He asked, "the hollow that killed you're grandpa, he was hard to detect. I'm sorry, but I don't think there's anything that anyone could do."

Somehow I made a breakthrough and he joined our side, but minutes later my Codex opened up and I saw Orihime and Tatsuki fighting a hollow at the school. I flash stepped to the roof and used my active camouflage that's powerful enough to fool even the most observant humans. Orihime managed to cut the hollow in half but I couldn't feel spiritual pressure, I felt time pressure, a time negation ability. The next morning I woke to a message on my wrist communicator. "The konpaku you requested has finished fabricating." the drone on the message said. That night we found a note from rukia, saying that we shouldn't follow her, so we followed her. With me in active camo. Two guys were there, one had weird tattoos on his face and red hair, the Codex refers to him as Renji Abarai. The other had a strange hairpiece, probably a royal thing. His name was Byakuya Kuchiki. I stayed invisible until they were gone, and took Ichigo to Kiske.

As I approached Kisuke's shop I felt a strange spiritual pressure. "Kiske, can you help me heal him?" I asked him, then I saw the source of the spiritual pressure, a cat that wasn't a cat, an animis, someone who can turn into their spirit animal. "And who's this animis."

"Oh, Bouked, meet Yororichi." Kisuke said.

I set Ichigo on the ground and grabbed a vial on a necklace and ripped it off. I opened the vial and bended the water onto my hands and put them to the wound, it started to heal. "He'll need to train here, to get his powers back." I said.

When Kisuke took Ichigo down to the basement I pushed a button on my wrist communicator and a ball of fire appeared in the sky, from the entry of the atmosphere, it was a container. When it landed I opened it and pulled a tactical laptop from it, a "fragment of the codex" that is plugged, of course, into the codex, which means that I can control recon drones individually.

I typed "Redirect all drones to the soul society" into the command line. A bunch of windows opened up on the laptop, the top window was outside the barracks of squad 7. The drone approached and the screen went static. I knew what this meant, an old enemy of mine has returned, and she will betray anyone she's working with, just to get back at me.

Author's notes: guess who this is. The theme song is hinting that Bouked will be powerful enough to defeat the one who was going to destroy the multiverse by the end of this act, but we aren't done yet
