Hello everyone! And welcome back to another edition of COMMENT SPOTLIGHT! Yeah I decided to bring this back because I thought it was fun last time! Same things as last time so let's not waste any time!

Guest Says: interesting.

Ethor says: Glad you find it interesting!

Guest Says: My only complaint is Gilgamesh shouldn't be written as shouting arrogant foul. He only acts like that when he was fighting Shirou specifically. Gil calms but is also not really surprised as well also has the arrogance to back it up. He should also be familiar with Soul society given his status as the first hero and also threw his own tale in which he travels to the underworld to find a solution to immorality. But ha that is my opinion this is your story you can do what you like.

Ethor says: Honestly this one we both took into consideration in the long term here, and I am glad you brought this up. I and MS went into detail about Gilgamesh's motives and this was the best set of events that would lead to Gilgamesh being more powerful later on.

Maxtime says: This was pretty good, through a small change Ichigo once hora Bankai doesn't exit it until he Is done fighting. Also, the final lines are good, but I can think of a change to make them feel better for the future. Ichigo is a punk, with a heart of gold. "I'm not Aizen, my name Is Ichigo Kurosaki. AND WHO THE HELL/HECK ARE YOU!?" Ichigo would be pissed off at being caught unguarded at this point in his life after the soul society Arc beginning of the Arrancar Arc/saga. If this was post-Fullbring Arc Ichigo, he would be more in line with how you have written him. Heck, hell Arc Ichigo (we know it's going to be a thing), actually shout that line as a response to a death threat after someone tried to kill one of his friends and his daughter. So it's a response that never ages.

Ethor says: Thank you! Also I somehow didn't think of that line when I and MS first started brainstorming for the first chapter. I guess I am not the best when it comes to Punkish characters yet… also Dosen't Ichigo have a boy?

Chapter 3: Hollowfied Fate

Written and Edited By: Ethorthebayleef and MSLMGamer

A large explosion can be heard and felt from afar as Rin Tohsaka, Shinji, and Lancer are stunned on the spot. Lancer gets a message from Kirei telling him to free Rin and gather everyone at once. Shinji brushes it off and charges at Rin.

"With that weird explosion aside, I can finally get back to the important part!" Shinji exclaims right before Lancer backhands him into the wall, knocking him out cold. He cuts Rin free and they go up the stairs where everyone else is.

"Thank you for saving me, Lancer," Rin says.

"It's not that big of a deal, I just couldn't let that bastard have his way with you."

They made their way to where Shirou Emiya, Archer, and Saber were on the staircase of Illia's estate. And as they made it there they saw Shirou ending the battle between himself and Archer by stabbing Archer through the gut. Rin comes to the realization that they probably didn't hear or feel the explosion. She was about to call out to them and at least try to explain the situation as she saw it when Kirei arrived seemingly in a slight panic. He looked tworded Rin, and then the area where the combatants of Archer and Shiro were fighting, and Kirei could see Saber herself readying herself for combat against the fell priest.

"What's going on Kirei, what was that explosion just now?" Rin asks angrily.

"We don't have a lot of time so I'll make this brief. There's someone fighting Gilgamesh, the one who slew Berzerker and his master. And he is stronger than any servant I've ever seen. If we have any chance at all of getting out of here alive we will have to form a temporary alliance."

The word on everyone's mind was "tension" everyone was tense, Shirou looked as if he was about to cave from the tension, Saber looked as if she was about three steps away from turning Kirei into a dead guy, Rin looked neutral but Lancer felt an aura of anger oozing off of her.

"My master told me to free the lady and to gather you all here for when he arrived." Lancer says begrudgingly, "If that is why then there is no way in hell we might actually make it out of here in one piece. You guys have trusted me before, trust me now."

"Then if you can, trust the information that is about to come out of my mouth," said Kirei before explaining everything he knew, Just as he finishes explaining, Ichigo runs into the building and is shocked to find more people. Shirou and Rin look innocent but everyone else makes him on guard.

"Great I gotta deal with three more of you on top of Hollows. This is not my day." Ichigo says, sighing afterward.

Kirei chimes in, "What do you mean on top of Hollows?"

As he says this, five Hollows burst into the building, surrounding everyone. Ichigo prepares to fight but all five of them are destroyed in an instant as Lancer decapitates all of them with his spear. Ichigo gets more on guard as Lancer stances up to fight Ichigo.

"Hold Lancer, let's just try to negotiate for a second," Kirei says as he approaches Ichigo.

"Oh so now you want to negotiate after sending Goldy after me," Ichigo says as he's about to charge at Lancer.

Kirei shakes his head and calmly explains, "I didn't send Gilgamesh after you, he did that of his own will. You're not like this Sosuke Aizen fellow I've heard about. Are you working for him?"

"Hell no, I'm not working for Aizen! If anything I'm actually trying to stop him."

Kirei smirks, "Then it seems we can negotiate after all."

"It seems like Aizen was right after all, he usually over-exaggerates this." Said a blue-haired man with a bone jaw and a hole in his chest coming through a black portal tearing through the sky. He steps through and smiles as he looks down upon everyone, knowing he could kill them all in a second.

"Friend of yours Strawberry?" Lancer said jokingly.

Ichigo clenches his fist, noticing the Hollow hole, and angrily responds, "There's no way he's a friend of mine!"

The man blitzes behind Ichigo and chimes in, "Oh but we're gonna have so much fun together."

The man kicks Ichigo through the roof and flies after him, punching him repeatedly in the face and then slamming him back down into the room. Ichigo flies after him but the man casually blitzes and grabs Ichigo by the face and slams him back into the ground.

"I thought you'd have more power than that, Ichigo Kurosaki! Don't tell me this pathetic state is your Bankai!"

As the man is insulting Ichigo he feels a sword hit him in the back, it doesn't do anything to him but he felt it bounce off of him.

"Hey, that's enough!" Shirou screams as everyone else is in a state of shock.

The man laughs, "You've got balls kid, too bad they just got you killed."

He goes to grab him but Archer grabs his hand as Lancer kicks him away from Shirou. Archer falls to the ground as almost all of his mana is used up after his fight with Shirou.

The man laughs and applauds them, "You know I only came for Ichigo but I can kill some time with you two, hell maybe even the blonde girl if she wants."

Saber readies up but Lancer stops her, "I'll take you on myself. You keep everyone safe, Saber."

"If you need help Lancer then I'll -"

"I know you'll jump in, I appreciate the thought but I'm not gonna need it," Lancer says as he prepares to fight the man. "What is your name warrior?"

The man smirks and says, "My name is Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez, Espada Number 6! What is your name spearman?"

"I am Cu Chulainn, a Lancer servant and the one who's going to kick your ass back through the portal you came from."

As the two are rushing towards each other, Shirou turns to Archer as he's fading away. "You're almost out of mana already?!"

Archer sighs and explains, "I didn't have a lot of time anyway and I used up a lot of mana in our fight. It was only a matter of time, I just wish I could fight him before I left."

Rin chimes in, "Wait you can, you'll just have to get a new master."

Archer looks at Shirou and sighs, "Are you willing to do it?"

Shirou nods, "If it helps take him down, I'll pair up with anyone." Shirou stretches out his hand and begins the chant Rin taught him. "Hear me, my will creates your body and your sword carves my destiny. If you heed the grail's call and submit yourself to my will and reason."

A red light shines and catches the attention of everyone in the room.

"It doesn't matter what you do, just make it fun for me!" Grimmjow yells as he continues his fight with Lancer.

"Then answer me and hearing your answer I will entrust my fate to your sword!"

"I accept my pride as an Archer. No, as Shirou Emiya! I take you as my master!"

A blue energy wave spreads across the room as Archer starts to reappear and Shirou's command seals return to his right hand. Grimmjow and Lancer stop fighting for a second as Grimmjow smiles.

"So you're gonna be sticking around after all huh Archer?" Lancer says as he jumps towards him.

"Looks like it, just don't get in my way Lancer," Archer says as he smirks and projects his bow.

"I'll take on everyone here if you feel like it, just make it fun for me!" Grimmjow says as he prepares to dash toward them.

Archer and Lancer nod to each other then Lancer blitzes toward Grimmjow and they start to fight again. They trade blows until Grimmjow kicks Lancer back then gets shot in the back by multiple arrows from Archer, Grimmjow turns to Archer but is kicked by Lancer into a wall before Archer shoots a barrage of arrows into Grimmjow. Grimmjow powers up and blitzes Lancer, knocking him through the stairs then kicks Archer in the gut, sending him flying. Archer shoots more arrows but Grimmjow just flies through them and slams Archer into the ground then he throws him into another wall.

"It was fun while it lasted but I've wasted enough time already," Grimmjow says as he opens his mouth and a red orb starts to form. It grows bigger and bigger until he screams, "HAVE A TASTE OF MY CERO!"

He fires the Cero at Archer as Shirou runs to him but Saber stops him as she notices Archer get back up and hold out his hand.

"I am… the bone… of my sword."

A pink flower starts to form as six energy shields cover the center of the flower.

"Rho Aias!"

The Cero crashes into the shield as the first layer is destroyed almost immediately, then the second, then the third shortly after that, continuing for a few seconds as it gets to the sixth layer. Archer's sleeve disintegrates as he holds his arm to brace himself. The sixth layer is broken as the blast crashes into the final layer, the flower itself. Archer screams as he puts everything he has into keeping the shield up.

"Guess that's my cue!" Lancer says as he jumps up out of the rubble, spear glowing a crimson red. "GÁE BOLG"

Lancer launches the spear at Grimmjow and it hits him square in the back, causing a massive explosion that envelops Grimmjow. The Cero disappears so Archer dispels the shield as he collapses, exhausted and almost completely drained of his mana. Lancer grabs his spear as it flies back to him, smirking at Archer in the process.

"That was cute!" Grimmjow says as the smoke clears and he's revealed to have survived but is covered in scratches and blood. "I underestimated that attack, damn thing almost killed me!"

Everyone is in disbelief as Grimmjow seems fine despite taking the Gáe Bolg directly with no protection or luck.

"How the hell were you able to block that?!" Questioned Lancer

"I am sorry to say but you will not live long enough to find out!" said Grimmjow as he was about to draw his blade… but that was before Kaname Tosen placed his hand on the hilt of the blade.

"Your job is done here Grimmjow. Lord Aizen is awaiting your return," said Tosen

"Tisk, I thought you said that the grail would take a while to summon!" said Grimmjow

"WHAT!" shouted Kirei

"Yes. But Lord Aizen learned how to accelerate things." said Tosen, "We have done what we came here for. The grail was summoned while you fought Ichigo, the grail did what we ordered it to do, I expect you to do the same."

"Fine." said Grimmjow before turning toward Ichigo, "You all better get stronger, or else next time, you're all going to die by my hands before Aizen can even think about fighting you!"
