"Ichigo, look at this." Orihime said as she held up a flyer. "There's a big sell going on. We have to go and check this out."
"Why are you telling me? Why don't you go with Rangiku, Rukia, or any of the girls?" Ichigo said.
"I think it will be fun and all you ever wear is black. I think it's time you had a change." Orihime said.
"What's wrong with the way I look?" Ichigo said.
"Would you like that list in alphabetical order or start from the bottom of your feet to everything?" Grimmjow remarked as he took a little listen. He snickered and was met with a punch to the face. Next thing you knew, both of them were getting in each other's face
"Yeah, well you look like cat litter." Ichigo said.
"How about I add some more black with some blue to you?" Grimmjow said.
"Grimmjow, you can join us if you want?" Orihime offered.
"How did you get an idea like that? Why the hell would I want to go?" Grimmjow said.
"I think this would be the best chance for the two of you to get along." Orihime said, but those two growled at each other. It didn't look like those two would get along any time soon. Both of them were about to say no, but Orihime was giving the both of them a teary eye look. "Please." Not even those two could say no to that face.
"Return of Fairy Woman"
Grimmjow and Ichigo had no choice, but to say yes to going with Orihime to this big sell. A little while after they left, everyone was talking about the string of bandits that have been appearing around Magnolia lately.
"There have been a lot of crooks roaming around lately." Rukia said.
"Yeah. It makes you feel like you want to do something." Renji said.
"This reminds me of a rumor I heard. It was about this woman named Fairy Woman who tried to help people around Magnolia." Uryu said. "Of course, she caused more harm than good."
"Sounds like a member of this guild." Rukia said. Someone in particular heard their conversation. Erza went into her office and was doing some thinking.
"Fairy Woman was a strong and dedicated woman." Erza said. She walked over to a drawer and pulls out a one piece suit with a cat tail. "The magic that messed up my face has been removed and I haven't worn it since. Perhaps the time has come for to return." She put on the suit with a mask and ears and wore leggings with her hair tied back. "Fairy Woman is back!"

Shopping District
Orihime took Grimmjow and Ichigo to a clothing store. She looked like she was having a good, but Ichigo and Grimmjow looked miserable as they both had a seat.
"How long until we have to leave?" Grimmjow said.
"No telling." Ichigo said.
"Why do we even need to be here? I don't need new clothes and you look like you don't want to be here anymore than I do." Grimmjow said.
"Orihime asked us to come. Let's just make the most of it." Ichigo said.
"You know I can leave and you be with your girlfriend." Grimmjow said.
"She's not my girlfriend!" Ichigo shouted.
"What do you guys think?" Orihime said as she was wearing a pink sundress.
"Not bad." Ichigo said.
"Just hold on. I've got a few other clothes I want to try." Orihime said as she went into the changing rooms. Grimmjow took a moment to look around and saw something interesting.
"Dude, we're the only guys here. We're practically surrounded by woman wearing extravagant clothes." Grimmjow said as he was liking what was happening around him.
"You're a pig." Ichigo said.
"You said to "make the most of it" and that's what I'm doing." Grimmjow said. Ichigo didn't seem that interested. What neither of them noticed was that, through the window, something jumped over the buildings.
"Did you hear something?" Ichigo said.
"Evil doers, beware. Fairy Woman has returned to defend all of Magnolia." Erza said as she moved from one roof to another in her costume like she was an actual superhero. "I am the defender of justice. I shall triumph over all evil."
…..
The Guild
Byakuya returned to the guild and was passing by Rukia and the others and he heard their conversation. They were still talking about superheroes.
"You've got to be kidding me." Renji said. "Who goes around in tights like they're wearing underwear?"
"At least they're fighting the good fight and standing up for what's right by upholding the law." Rukia said.
"What are the three of you talking about?" Byakuya said as he came by.
"Uryu told us about some crooks that have been around Magnolia lately." Rukia said.
"We ended up talking about superheroes, one being this woman who goes by Fairy Woman." Uryu said. "They try to fight for and uphold the law while wearing silly costumes to keep their identities a secret."
"Interesting. A unique way to uphold the law." Byakuya said as he was deep in thought about it. "Perhaps I should try this. I hold the responsibility as member of this guild to uphold the law and its responsibilities."
"Please tell me you're joking." Rukia said. She couldn't imagine her older brother actually doing something like this."
"Of course I need one of these uniforms." Byakuya said as he turned to Uryu. "I've heard you're good with a needle a thread, capable of making an entire outfit in mere moments."
"That is true." Uryu said as he saw a shining opportunity to him. "Actually, this might be a great chance for me to expand my limits. You can count me in as well."
"Are they serious?" Renji said as he and Rukia looked at them and thinking they're about to do something nuts.
"Come, Byakuya. I need to get your measurements to make something that works." Uryu said as the two of them went to get costumes of their own.
"Should we do something about this?" Rukia asked.
"About what? I don't know what you're talking about." Renji said as he tried to act like there was nothing going on.
…
Orihime
"What a well spent day." Orihime said as she carried a few shopping bags with Grimmjow and Ichigo right behind her.
"For who?" Grimmjow said.
"What is it with girls and shopping? Why do they love it so much?" Ichigo complained. Both of them were sick of all the shopping, but things were about to change when they heard sinister laughing. Everyone looked up and saw a man on a flying aircraft in rainbow clothing and had two men, one dressed in red and the other in blue.
"People of Magnolia, I am Mr. Rainbow. I am here to take control of your city."
"Who the heck are these guys?" Ichigo said.
"They just look like losers." Grimmjow said.
"My minions and I have come here to make everything here belong to me." Mr. Rainbow said. "Now, Red and Blue, paint the town our colors." His two minions took out two cannons and were shooting out giant paintballs that splattered all over the city.
"Oh no. What do we do?" Orihime said.
"What else?" Ichigo said.
"We clobber these guys." Grimmjow said as they both got ready to fight, but they heard a righteous laugh.
"Evil, I see. Not to worry for I am here to fight for justice." All of them looked up to the roof and saw Erza.
"Is that Erza?" Ichigo asked.
"What the hell is she doing?" Grimmjow said.
"I am not Erza. I am almighty Fairy Woman." Erza said. "I am here to defend Magnolia and dispatch justice into the world."
"I'm sorry Fairy Woman, but Magnolia belongs to me." Mr. Rainbow said. "Shoot her down." Both his minions took aim at her and they fired the giant paintballs, but Erza jumped out of the way.
"I say you three are grounded." Erza said. She smashed the propellers that kept the aircraft in the air. Erza landed on her feet and the aircraft crashed into the ground.
"Wow! She didn't even use any requipping." Ichigo said.
"All in a day's work for Fairy Woman." Erza said, but then she got hit and was pushed back into a wall with a sticky substance.
"You are strong, Fairy Woman." Mr. Rainbow said as he and his two minions were still able to walk. "However, it would seem you're not strong enough to beat me."
"We better give her a hand." Grimmjow said. He and Ichigo were about to step in, but arrows were shot at Mr. Rainbow and his lackies. Pink petals also flew out and sliced the substance and got Erza free.
"Now, who is it?" Mr. Rainbow said as two other figures arrived.
"We are the dispatchers of justice. We enforce the law and punish those who would dare defy it. I am White Archer." That was really Uryu dressed like a stereotypical archer with a mask. "This is also the samurai who stands firm for rights and does not waver. Meet Senbonzakura." He showed a man dressed like a samurai with little armor and a mask of his own.
"Is that Uryu and Byakuya?" Ichigo said.
"This is the weirdest thing I have ever seen." Grimmjow said.
"How dare you. This is my climactic moment." Erza said as the two of them jumped down and stood next to her.
"Forgive us, Fairy Woman. However, I can't ignore it when someone disrupts the peace." Byakuya said.
"We will fight with you." Uryu said.
"Even three of you can't take me on." Mr. Rainbow said. "Dispose of them." Red and Blue shot out the cannons, but all three of them avoided the blasts.
"Feel the arrows of justice." Uryu said. He used his magic and shot out arrows that destroyed Blue's cannon. He jumped up and slammed his foot on Blue's head. Red tried against Byakuya, but he was too fast. Byakuya took out a sword and got behind Red in the blink of an eye. Then, the cannon Red had was sliced into pieces and Red collapsed.
"No. How could this happen?" Mr. Rainbow said.
"You met your end." Erza said as she went to fight him. With a strong kick and a few punches to the face, Erza tossed him into a wall and he was knocked out. Some people saw what happened and they all clapped and cheered for them. Ichigo and Grimmjow were the only ones that weren't impressed with what has happened.
"No need for thanks, citizens of Magnolia." Erza said. "Wherever there is evil, Fairy Woman shall be there to stop it."
"The same goes for us." Uryu said.
"We shall uphold the law and punish those who stand against it without question." Byakuya said. All three of them went back to the top and moved from one building to the next as everyone cheered like the heroes they were.
"Weirdest day ever." Grimmjow said.
"You can say that again." Ichigo said.
"That was the coolest thing I've ever seen. Who were those masked figures?" Orihime said.
"Is she serious?!" Grimmjow and Ichigo said as they couldn't believe she couldn't figure it out on her own. At least Magnolia does have heroes to protect it.
