Chapter 4: Infiltrate, Drown
Vas Talking
Rei Talking With Bindings
Shiro Talking
Mayuri's Lab
Ichigo was brought inside a dark lab and laid down on a table, roughly. He groaned a bit when that happened, not like the girl or this weird ass looking captain cared for his pain. All they cared about was seeing what was inside of him that made him tick. Ichigo was released from the Bakudo and quickly restrained onto the table. Ichigo tried to break from these restraints but found them just as impossible to do so just like the Bakudo thing like before. Ichigo eventually gave up when that crazy faced bastard showed up again with a cart of some very disturbing tools on it. Ichigo paled when he saw the manic captain pick up some sort of needle or maybe a syringe and slowly walked over to him with that sadistic grin plastered on his face.
"Oh this will be most enjoyable indeed." Kurotsuchi started as he brought the needle closer to the teens eye.
Just Outside The North Gate
A few soul reapers were on guard duty near the north gate of the wall. Nothing really eventful ever really happened at this particular gate aside from a few times some of the more drunk souls of the Rukon district would stumble upon the gate. Today though was gonna be different, very different. A Senkaimon opened within the small village area that was in front of the gate that caught everyones attention. The villagers looked on in awe, most had never seen a Senkaimon open up before. The three soul reapers were more than a little confused as to why an unauthorized Senkaimon was opening outside of the Seireitei more than anything. It wasn't until they saw the first two come out that they figured something was wrong.
A man with a long, dark red cloak of energy stepped out of it. He looked around to the confused souls around him before turning his attention to the soul reapers at the gate. Despite half his face being covered and some of his hair covering his eyes, the soul reapers could just feel a scowl coming off of him. On of the soul reapers was about to approach when suddenly another being stepped out of the still open Senkaimon. This next person was a normal looking soul that looked almost like a soul reaper. True, his outfit wasn't really accurate to standard soul reaper attire, but he looked more natural than the other one right now. This one looked around to the villagers and all around the area, almost as if he had never been here before.
The soul reaper that was approaching them before continued on, but was finally halted out of fear and shock by the next two beings that exited the Senkaimon. The villagers also froze with fear when they saw the two hollow-like beings exit the now closed Senkaimon and look around to them all.
"Hmm." Vas started with a scoff as he folded his arms to his chest. "Not really what I was expecting really."
"I will admit though." G started as he smelled the reiatsu saturated air with a smile on his face. "With this reiatsu, fighting captains in the Seireitei shouldn't be too difficult."
"Uh huh." Shiro started as he spotted the soul reapers in front of them shakily drawing their zanpakuto's. He gave a wide grin as he reached for his cleaver only to be stopped by Rei.
"We didn't come here to waste time. We came here to get Ichigo and leave, Shiro." Rei started. "Save your real strength for when we're inside."
"Oh fine." Shiro pouted as he placed his hands in his pockets.
"Now then. Vas." Rei started to his brother. "Take care of that gate."
Vas nodded and waled up ahead a bit before stopping a few feet in front of Rei. The soul reapers, though shaking at the thought of facing a hollow with so much demonic spirit energy, stood their ground nonetheless. That was until Vas started to charge up a white cero with a red outline to it on his horns. The soul reapers tensed hard while the villagers simply hid in their homes, praying to whatever god to protect them from these monstrous like beings. When Vas fired the cero, the two soul reapers nearest the gate moved out of the way just in time, but their friend was to close and to slow to dodge. The cero connected with the gate and completely annihilated the Seki Seki wood, sending the remnants of the door flying everywhere inside.
Of course this had the desired effect that the four wanted. It put the whole place on alert while giving them time to sense where Ichigo was. Since Ichigo's energy is so weak from the herbs and medicine throughout the years, tracking him would prove difficult with so many spirit energies around if possible.
"G." Rei started, getting his brothers' attention. "Find Ichigo." G nodded and sonidoed inside before the soul reapers formed at the gate. "Vas, Shiro, lets show these soul reapers what happens when they mess with our little brother."
Shiro grinned madly and drew his cleaver. "HELL YEAH! LETS DO THIS!" Vas also drew his black Nodachi in his right hand and charged in with Shiro following suite. They didn't waste any time diving head first into the oncoming soul reapers.
While that was going on, G was already searching for Ichigo's faint spirit energy on top of a tall building overlooking most of the north side of the Seireitei. He had his eyes closed and was putting that enhanced detecting skills to work. G may have been the best tracker of the four, but with so many souls residing in the soul society with different amounts of energy, finding Ichigo would be difficult even for him. G continued to search for a few more minutes until he could feel it. Ichigo's spirit energy was far away but still very much alive, if a little wavered from some kind of stress.
"Ichigo." G whispered to himself as he opened his eyes only to be met with few soul reapers standing around him. He looked around himself in a slight surprise and whistled a bit to himself. "Wow. You guys had a shot to take me out while I was distracted and didn't take it?" He raised his hands up a bit in a comical way and smiled. "I'd say that's pretty honorable, but then I'd be considered a liar."
As G looked around to the soul reapers surrounding him, he sighed in relief when he saw that there were no captains present. When he looked around a bit more, his eyes stopped on a young raven haired girl that gasped in shock at seeing his face.
"Y-You?" She started in shock.
"Yeah I know it's me." G said as he scratched the back of his head a bit. "Who exactly are you?" He asked her in a calm tone that held no malice.
"How the hell did you escape from captain Kurotsuchi?" The girl asked him. "And how in the hell did you change into this form, hollow?"
G immediately gasped under his breath as a thought started to pop in his head. Her spiritual pressure, although very weak all things considered, felt very familiar to him. He went a little wide eyed when he remembered that it was her spiritual pressure that disappeared a little after Ichigo disappeared. G took a deep breath to calm himself down, but all the soul reapers, especially the raven haired girl, backed away when they saw a dark aura around this hollow.
"Did you?" G started with his head down. "Were you the one that took Ichigo away to get hurt in this place girl?" His voiced dipped into seriousness as he raised his head and stared straight at her with a blank stare that froze her all of a sudden.
The girl couldn't move at all. She didn't know why or how, but this hollow had somehow paralyzed her with just his stare. Seeing no other option, the girl decided to answer him through gritted teeth as she struggled to move herself.
"That orange haired hollow? I did bring him here. It wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be." She said to G. "What does he mean to-"
She never got to finish as G shoved his fingers into her gut mere seconds after she admitted it. The girl coughed up some blood as G lifted her up and flung her off of his hand like trash.
"RUKIA!" A red haired soul reaper shouted out as he brought his blade to him. "Damn hollow! Roar, Zabimaru!" He released his shikai and flung his now extended blade towards G.
G didn't even draw his blade as he raised his blood stained hand to catch the blade flying towards him. Both the man and the other soul reapers around him were shocked beyond belief at what this hollow did. Not only has he taken down one of their most skilled fighters with one motion, but he also caught a lieutenants shikai blade with minimal effort.
"I may not like violence all too much," G started as he looked at the lieutenant with malice in his eyes. "But I will make an acception whenever any soul reaper hurts my little brother."
That was the last thing the lieutenant heard before the blood on G's fingers went through his blade straight to him and pierced through his chest. He fell to the floor, barely breathing while G looked to the other soul reapers. They all retreated when he did this, and G sighed. He regained his calmness and started to sonido to where Ichigo was, intent on saving his brother.
Back with Vas and Shiro, they were cutting down soul reaper after soul reaper with ease. The two started to make a game of it after a while. Who could get the most kills before G shows back up with Ichigo or when Rei decided to step in. So far Shiro was winning 13 to 12.
"Ha!" Shiro said out loud as the three started to move forward. "At least make it a real challenge for us! Break into their stronghold and the strongest don't even have the balls to come out and face us!" Shiro now had his cleaver, now stained with fresh and drying blood, on his shoulder as they continued to walk into some kind of courtyard.
They stopped when they saw more soul reapers and a few captains as well. Three to be precise. One was a dark skinned man that looked to be blind from what Rei and Vas could tell. Shiro could care less about him though as he could see that he would be fighting crazy spiky haired guy with the crazy grin to his face. The final captain was a very tall man in a mask.
"Whoever you three are." The blind one spoke up as he drew his blade first. "Seize these actions and your deaths will be swift in the eyes of justice."
"HA! Big talk about the 'eyes of justice' coming from some blind fool!" Shiro yelled out, causing the spiky haired captain to laugh out loud.
"I like that one! I'm gonna enjoy this fight!" He yelled out as he rushed over to Shiro.
Before Shiro could run off to him as well, he was stopped briefly by Rei. "Shiro, he's a lot stronger than you think. So don't hold back."
Shiro gave a happy grin and rushed over to meet Kenpachi in the center of the courtyard as they clashed their blades together. The pressure as they did so caused a crater to form where they were standing, surprising the two captains behind.
With Ichigo
Ichigo was in an incredible amount of pain as he was being subjected to incisions after incisions from this crazy man. His body was wracked in cuts and blood as he was being cut up while still conscious. Right now the man was at his computer when all the commotion interrupted his precious research.
"Ho?" He started while the girl was standing behind him. "It seems that their are visitors here now. Interesting." He started to rub his chin as he started to think of ways to get these new intruders for his research like this hollow boy still in intense pain. "Nemu, take the boy away so I can dissect him later. It seems that I am needed once again to clean up whatever mess these simpletons and barbarians can't handle."
"Yes master Mayuri." Nemu said to her father as she went back to the teen.
Ichigo had a million thoughts running his mind to ignore the pain. His thought were mainly on his brothers and how worried and upset they must be by now. Ichigo was feeling nothing right now aside from pain, the cold steel on his bare skin, and the fresh and still seeping blood pouring from all the cuts on his body. More than a few pieces of his body had been painfully removed from the inside of his body and outside, and he could feel himself slipping away. Right before he closed his remaining eye, he let out one loan tear at the last thing that he thought of.
"I'm so sorry guys." That was when something absolutely strange happened as soon as Ichigo's eyes closed.
It started to rain inside the lab.
"What?!" The captain started in shock and anger as his equipment was covered in the light drizzle that started to turn into a heavy rain. "What is the meaning of this?!" Kurotsuchi was looking around for any explanation when he turned to his samples and organs that he took out of Ichigo. They were suddenly turning into water from what he could see. "NO! All that valuable research material, gone!" The containers fell over and the water was now mixed with the rain water.
Nemu was completely confused by this as well, but her confusion was from seeing the water from the containers started to move straight for Ichigo's body. When they reached him, it was almost as if it healed him completely. His cuts had been healed while his organs were now most likely back in place. She watched as he woke back up, but something was very wrong. His eyes were no longer brown like before. His eyes were now completely black with blue pupils and irises. His near non-existent spirit energy skyrocketed as the rain suddenly stopped in mid air. Nemu backed away slowly when Ichigo rose off of the table, easily breaking the binds around his wrists and ankles, and looked to the stunned girl. Without thinking, he flicked his hand towards her and the water from the rain quickly attacked her, encasing her completely in a ball of water. Nemu tried to escape but found that the water was not only keeping locked away, and drowning her slowly, but also stealing her spirit energy.
Kurotsuchi saw this whole spectacle and was amazed by the boys unique ability to create and manipulate some form of water. He watched as his daughter had stopped moving and was dropped down to the ground. He drew his sword and prepared for a battle he knew for a fact that he could win. Ichigo may have been powerful now, but he was still no match for Kurotsuchi's abilities. Just as he was about to release his shikai though, for no reason at all, all the water suddenly disappeared and Ichigo passed out on the floor.
"Hmm?" Kurotsuchi thought as he walked over to the downed hollow. He poked his sword into the teens back a few times, drawing blood each time, to see if this was a ploy or not. He grinned that sadistic grin and started to cackle a little bit. "Well now, it seems that you overdid it by healing yourself and taking out my useless creation. Interesting indeed." He knelt down to the unconscious teen and continued to smirk. "I'm going to enjoy dissecting you even more than before."
He reached a hand out to grab at the boy, but before he could, a massive hole was blown in the wall closest to them. Kurotsuchi looked up in disgust that his lab had been put through so much in such a short amount of time. He looked up and saw a tall, orange haired man in black standing back as he looked on in horror at the sight in front of him.
"Hmm." Kurotsuchi started as he placed a hand on his chin. "Interesting. You have the exact same type of face as this one, yet your power seems very different than this pathetic weak-" Before he could say anymore, G had quickly slashed his O Katana across the mans neck. Kurotsuchi was in shock as he looked at the man one last time before suddenly everything started turning upside down. "What?"
As Kurotsuchi's head was removed from his shoulders, G's breath was filled with anger as his usual brown eyes red with rage at the moment. He had no idea what this man did to his brother, but one thing that he could tell was that the blood both around Ichigo and the dried up blood on a table gave all the reason to do what he did anyway. The rage started to dim when he saw his brother stir a little. His eyes changed back to normal and he quickly sheathed his blade to go check on Ichigo.
"Hey hey, Ichigo." G started as he lifted Ichigo up a bit.
Ichigo managed to open his eyes and G saw that they were now completely different than before. Now they were almost like Shiro's only with blue instead of yellow. Ichigo got a good look a G and smirked before he passed out.
"Okay. You're okay now."
