Swiping at the blood leaking out of his forehead Ichigo quickly ran er galloped towards the crash site of the hollow.
"Damn that fucking whore!" It yelled as it opened and closed its wing where the large hole Ichigo produced was pouring out blood.
'I wonder if there was a major artery there- hollow biology huh…' Ichigo thought, his hooves hitting the pavement in a soft rhythmic noise, to be interrupted by the puddles of leftover rainwater each only added to the orchestra of the hollow's death, the filthy water splashing onto Ichigo's fur mixed with the blood that already dyed it.
The hollow's head quickly darted to Ichigo, its yellow eyes were wide, and chaotic fury was the utmost emotion one could feel oozing out of that glare but also a hint of fear.
"Don't think this is over bitch! I'll kill you like everyone else! Hahahhaha! You're merely a footnote! After I consume your soul I'll be even more powerful!" The hollow yelled then flung his tongue out.
"NOW DIE!" He yelled as more toads appeared coming from the roofs of the nearby building that made up this alleyway, instead of just combusting as they once did, now they threw out their pink explosives in a rain of hell fire.
"ARGH!" Ichigo yelled out as more burns and cuts etched into Ichigo's body making him fall onto one knee as he huffed and puffed for oxygen.
"I refuse to give any sense of mercy, you'll just be more fuel!" The hollow stopped its rain of explosions to taunt- that's when Ichigo made his move.
With shaky movements, Ichigo galloped straight towards the hollow who quickly responded by grabbing one of his toad minions out of his fur coat and throwing it at Ichigo.
"I know you're a dumb bitch! But not this-" The hollow's taunts were cut short when Ichigo grabbed one of the pink explosives and putting all of his energy into his four legs burst across the alley right next to the hollow's mask with a pink bomb in hand Ichigo punched straight through his "teeth" and entered the hollow's mouth.
"ARK!" Coughing out some blood and wiping away some blood that clouded his vision he stood smirking.
"Tch aren't you gonna blow this dumb bitch up? You gonna wiggle that fucking tongue again!?" Ichigo yelled, his eyebrow scrunched up and his voice filled with rage.
"Oh is Mr.Fly boy pissing his fucking pants now that this brain-dead whore has got him by his tongue! Well if you're not gonna use let's put it to use!" Ichigo yelled, punching through with his other hand. Ichigo grabbed the tongue.
"I think the birdy got the little worm!" Ichigo cackled his face now alight with joy.
Ichigo then began to lightly pull on it even though he knew that he could easily rip it out…but just seeing this fucker suffer was so much more fun!
"The birdy gotta try real hard to pull this stubborn worm out of its hole!"
He continued to pull on it until finally it was ripped out of his mouth with a flurry of red, Ichigo leaned his back as he brought the long pink worm-like tongue to his mouth, opening slightly Ichigo slurped it down like a spaghetti noodle.
"Blagh!" quickly raised his hand to his mouth and seemed to be gagging but nothing would resurface.
'What the fuck did I just do!?" he thought as he looked at his blood-covered hands…he just ate a fucking tongue- not just that he ate a part of an intelligent creature what the fuck.
"GRAK!" The hollow let out a meaningless sound as it crawled away toward a black portal a few feet away.
"Ichigo! Don't let that monster get away!" Rukia yelled running over to him with his thrown lance the thing was longer than her making her carry it in two hands.
It took a few seconds for Ichigo to try and take his turmoiled mind enough to shoot his bow right into the back of the hollow's head.
'Just don't think about it don't think-Ahhhh!'
After shooting the hollow Ichigo was still trying desperately to wrangle his mind under control only to feel it.
Every other time the pleasure of cleansing a hollow was quick but so immensely pleasurable in those few seconds as a strange energy coursed through him, but this time, it kept coursing through him, he could feel the power coursing through his very being it demanded that sought more he needed to consume more, he assumed it was like getting water after being in the desert for years without water!
"Ichigo!" Rukia yelled, shaking the twitching centaur which thankfully seemed to line up when it finally ended.
'I wonder how'd it feel to consume her soul?'A dark and intrusive thought surrounded his mind: eateat eat need more! Eat, Eat! Eat!
"Look!" She yelled pointing her finger away from Ichigo and towards the hollow he had just slain.
But Ichigo wasn't looking he staring at his brand-new prey Ichigo reached out
I wanna hear that satisfying crack as I snap her pitiful neck! I want to hear her beg for mercy right before I eat her I wan-no-I wan- No-I wa-NO
Lowering his arm Ichigo shook his head before slapping his mask trying desperately to get his mind off the idea ofeating the preyin front of him.
Hoping that seeing whatever Rukia was pointing at would help him he turned his head over only for his mask's eye holes to widen as he stared at what was before.
Two humongous black….doors? Adorned with two large skeletons wrapped in bandages appeared in front of him.
"The gates of hell, the zanpakuto can only cleanse the sins that the hollow committed after death, the sins before are forever etched into their being and must pay their dues…." Rukia stated simply almost as if she was reading out of a textbook.
"Sins? What did he-" before Ichigo could continue he felt something akin to a memory break through his mind.
I rubbed my teeth together, today should have been like any other, break in, scare the shit out of the hot lady then slowly toy with her before killing her then maybe have some fun with the leftovers, but no! This damned woman had a brat! He kept fucking around while I was trying to play with my toy, I usually don't go after kids, they're just not fun enough but this one I am gonna have fun with after I deal mommy here, maybe I can tie my fun with making the kid suffer?
Ichigo's nausea which was already high after…everything just got even worse as…that memory? Whatever the fuck broke into his mind- victory felt sweeter and some of the nausea over his actions died down after experiencing his memory.
"Piece of shit," Ichigo muttered as he continued to rub his mask.
"Hmph indeed, but at least he was good for one thing," Rukia shook her head, misunderstanding Ichigo's hate.
"What's that?" Ichigo asked, looking at the large doors as they opened and the hollow floated towards the middle.
"You're not destroying the souls, if that was the case he wouldn't be going to hell right now, somehow even with a Quincy bow you're purifying their souls…maybe it's the shinigami power I gave you?" Rukia said as a giant sword stabbed the monstrous hollow making it, and the gates of hell disappeared.
"That's good, at least I am not a threat to the balance of reality so your Shinigami pals wouldn't want to kill me right?" Ichigo laughed as he rubbed the back of his head desperately trying not to think about the multiple weird things today.
"Tch, they'd kill you in a heartbeat, no matter how you look at it, you're a hollow not to mention a Quincy about the power of a low-ranked officer seeing how beat up you are from a hollow, but if you have time to grow, you could become Lieutenant strength within 50-100 years and that's being nice, and that is if you gain the high life span that us Shinigami do, of course by that time I will have my powers back, so it won't matter you'll be back to being human," Rukia let out a sigh before looking back to Ichigo.
"It seemed you gained a new weapon, I am not sure how, but I'll just add it to the pile of mysteries that you are," Rukia said with a giggle before aiming the base at Ichigo.
Ichigo briefly wanted to explain but something nagged in his brain,what if she turns on you…after she gets her power there is no telling what she'll do…
"Not sure, it just happens" Ichigo responded, taking the lance.
"Where the hell am I supposed to put this thing?" Ichigo mumbled before feeling a familiar swat.
Letting out a soft growl Ichigo looked at Rukia who was on his right side.
"This wasn't here before, it seems like I finally got a place to rest," Rukia said with a small smile.
Though it was difficult for Ichigo to see laying atop his back was a small piece of leather, which thankfully didn't look like a saddle but on the right side, the leather covered his side and screwed or attached was a light mint-colored sheath? Ichigo didn't know the name of it but clearly, it was supposed to hold his new lance.
Which Ichigo did promptly before speaking.
"So now we have to perform a konso on thatbra-kid?" Ichigo asked once more, swiping away the blood.
"Yeah, Uryu is trying to calm the bird down, but before that…" Rukia put her hands out toward Ichigo and a bright green erupted out of her clasped hands, and a soothing feeling washed over Ichigo. It was like sitting at the beach and watching the waves crash.
"That's the best I can do, otherwise it's going to need to heal on its own," Rukia stated a few minutes later.
No longer was the blood flowing out like a faucet but still some nicks appeared and you could see the damage.
With that, the duo headed off to Uryu.
"She wants to eat all of us!" The screeching sounds of the bird entered their ears as they got closer,"
"Yūichi, if that really was Ichigo, then she wouldn't do that," Chad's deep voice could also be heard.
"No! They're just trying to trick you!" The now named Yūichi yelled out, flapping his wings.
"Yo," Ichigo said walking into their eyesight, of course, Chad couldn't see any of this but he still turned towards Ichigo.
"Please just eat me! Don't harm him!" The parakeet screeched.
"Shut up will ya!? Your voice is grating, I am not gonna eat you, I prefer chicken anyways if I was going to eat a bird," Ichigo said getting close to the cage.
"Y-You're lying!"
"Why would I lie if I was gonna eat ya? What purpose would that serve me?"
"I-I don't know but please," the parakeet said softly, his eyes watered.
"Tch, don't you want to see your mom again? I can let you see her, what the asshole isn't true," Ichigo said, rubbing the back of his head.
That seemed to shut the bird up.
"Can you really?"
Ichigo nodded, "yeah, I just need to perform a konso…uh Rukia how do I do that?" Ichigo asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Normally you pump a little spiritual energy into the hilt of your zanpakuto and tap them on the head but…,"
"Tch, that is an issue…wait," Ichigo's eyes brightened as he grabbed his new lance and did as Rukia instructed.
"You're going to the soul society, a wonderful place where you'll see your mom again," Rukia said with a soft smile.
"Really?"
Rukia simply nodded.
"If that's so…then mister…whenever you join me…can you carry me around like old times?"
"Sure, kid," Chad said, doing a thumbs up.
With that, a black butterfly flew off into the unknown.
…
A few weeks later.
"What the fuck is this!?" Ichigo yelled waving around a PEZ dispenser-looking object with the words "SOUL CANDY," etched into it with rainbow colors.
"It's something so you can turn into soul form at any time, as the test with Uryu doesn't seem to be working," Rukia said with a huff.
"It's not my fault that it fucking burns when I try and use my Quincy powers while human!"
Rukia shook her head before massaging her eyebrows.
"Well, you owe me money no matter what, just pop it in,"
Letting out some grumbles Ichigo popped the duck head sending a green candy down his throat, instantly pushing his soul out of his body, but unlike every other time, it didn't collapse. Instead, it stood back up and did a small salute.
"Hello, mistress,"
A/N: So a few things, one I put an asterisk last chapter and I forgot about it, so I am gonna explain it here, in cannon least to my knowledge it never stats that Quincy or Hollows have different colored soul ribbons but I decided to make it so, as that just makes sense.
also I know not much happened with plot happened in this chapter but that's just how it goes sometimes, next chapter will be Kon how fun!
