The Soul King Palace.
A realm housing not only the very thing upon which the world hinges on but also his guardians, The Zero Squad.
It is said that the combined strength of its five members exceeds than that of every other shinigami in the Soul Society.
And they are on high alert.

After receiving some alarming news Ichibe Hyosube, lead by Kirinji, went to the Surveillance room.
This room serves as the eyes and ears of the Royal Guard where they can observe everything within the 3 realms that they have jurisdiction over.
It is rather rare for the Zero Division members to gather in one place outside of scheduled meetings so the full gravity of the situation is understandable even at first glance.

''Osho... you're finally here.''
Shutara greets him.

''Sorry for the wait everyone.
Now... can anyone enlighten me about what's going on?''

''Awright!''
Oetsu speaks up.
''You two niggas! Tell the monk whatchu told us!''

The two underlings of Kirinji take a step forward nervously.
Though the royal realm is reserved only for the Royal Guard each of the organizations members are given a small domain over which they have absolute rule.
And naturally one also needs subjects to rule over.
These denizens of the realm are all artificial or mod souls with the exception of Nimaiyas underlings.
They do all menial chores that the esteemed Zero Division can't be bothered with and they also provide them with pretty much whatever they want.

''W-We're sorry Osho...
We didn't do anything wrong I swear!
It's just-''

''Please...
No need for apologies.
Just take a deep breath and tell me what you saw!''

The mod soul sighs before he continues.
''W-We picked up something... before we lost all contact.
A cloud.''

''Oh?
Like the ones that are created when certain, strong elemental hollows fight?''

''No Osho... This was too big...
At first we spotted it on one camera but it quickly spread until it enveloped everything.
All our devices could see it clearly. And then.... it started to rain.''

At first Ichibe gives a surprised look as his eyes opened wide but his expression quickly changed and he let out a weary sigh.

''Yes. Apparently some genius didn't bother to make them waterproof.''
Shutara gave a sarcastic quip.

''Shutara! Mah girl!
Did ya' really just suggest that we installed waterproof cameras in tha muthafuckin' desert?
Especially where it hasn't rained for at least two freakin' thousand years?!''

''Everyone, please!
Calm down!''
The Monk tries to separate the two of them.
''Nothing will come of going at each others throats.''

''Sorry Osho.''
Shutara apologizes.
''So... What's the plan?
We put off cleansing the hollow lands for a while.
I'd say it's about time we fixed that.''

''Now now. Don't be too hasty.
Remember the reason why we did that in the first place.''

''I know... but what if it backfires?''

''Then we'll deal with it when that happens...''

Vanaheim, the City of Hollows:


After the birth of your daughter Sofia you expected your everyday life to change drastically but that couldn't be further from the truth.
The difference between her and Dante when he was her age are visible at first glance.
While Dante couldn't be left alone for more than a couple of minutes before he started crying so you paid more attention to him Sofia seems to be much more content with being left alone and is much less problematic in general.

For starters she has a very interesting routine that she seems to stick to almost all the time.
Every day she wakes up around 8 o' clock and goes to sleep around 7 in the evening.
During the day she eats only 3 times and 4 on rare occasions. When Yata heard this he gave you an earful but after he put her on a scale and weighed her he quickly shut up.
Apparently your little sunshine has a much better appetite than most other babies her age and eats more in one session than others in multiple feedings.

And it also has to be said that she sleeps quite a lot.
After every meal she's active for about an hour before she drifts to sleep and only wakes up when she gets hungry again.
So while Dante was a problem child Sofia behaves like a paperweight and will stay wherever you put her down and will be content.
All in all Sofia turned out to be rather easy to handle and even with the limited time during which she's active you always have a blast caring for her and having her sleep in your arms.

But where you got lucky with your daughter you were unfortunate in other places.
For the first couple of days you pretty much had to quarantine your home so nobody could enter outside Yata.
Then you slowly opened up the place, first for your direct family members. Meaning that only Dante, Alex and the Tres were welcome.
And later you opened it up for pretty much anyone and that's when things got out of control so you shut it off again.
Apparently many people were curious about her and due to that you had a rather large crowd in your home pretty much all the time.
So you had no choice but to enforce the ban once more and now the only one that's allowed in addition to your family members and Yata and the Tres is Pesci.

Perhaps strangest of them all however is Apacci who has taken quite a liking to her new ''sister'' and prying Sofia away from her is almost as difficult as taken her away from you or Harribel.

Other than that Dante also became fond of his ''aunt'' despite Sofias tendency to pull on his hair whenever he's close to her.

However right now none of them are present and you're left sitting on the couch, carefully rocking Sofia.
She's wide awake right now, her little golden eyes cautiously examine everything around her as she's trying to take in her surroundings.
On her is the little sleepsuit that was made especially for her and in her mouth is a pacifier.
As you're trying to remove Captain Wiggles from Sofias head so he stops nibbling on her hair you start hearing footsteps closing in.

''Ah. There you are!''
You hear Tias voice as she comes closer.
''How has my little sunshine been?''

You let out a little snicker.
''Do you mean me or her?''

She boops your nose and sits down next to you.
''Oh you know!''
Then she extends her arms to you.
''Come on, my turn!''

Hesitantly you hand Sofia over to her and she starts playing with her.
''So... what's your plan for the day?''
She asks you.

>Nothing. I just want to spend some time with my daughter, can't have you hogging all the fun

''Well since you ask and it's likely that you'll not relinquish Sofia any time soon...''

''You're correct.''

''I thought I'd check on the humans.''

''Again? You're getting fond of them, aren't you?''

''Perhaps.
But given how things tend to gravitate towards them I'd like to keep an eye on their realm.''

''That's fair.
Well, have fun then.''

''Okay. You too''
You stand up and make your way to the door.

''Oh don't worry, we will!''
You grumble to yourself after hearing that.

Leaving the confines of your home you opened up the Garganta and began traversing it.
It was a fairly normal trek... up until you got a funny feeling.
You stopped for a moment and started looking around but saw nothing other than the empty void of the Garganta.
However you felt a strange wind, more violent than the usual one that blows within. It almost managed to take your hat from you.
Not being able to discern the source of the weird feeling you resumed your journey.

As you open the portal you feel a familiar scent hitting your nose.
Looking over the trees down below you can see that their leaves begun to change their color from green to a variety of yellow, orange and red.
Autumn either arrived to the human realm or it's on the verge of coming.

''How nice...''
You muse.
''It's a shame the Idun don't go through a seasonal change.
A change of scenery would be very much welcome.''
You share your thoughts with Wiggles who stoved away in your front pocket once more.

After closing your eyes you send out a low frequency wave of reiatsu to scan the surrounding area for any of the humans you're interested in and find one pretty close.

''Damn that Ichigo...
Stupid brat should really learn to control his strength...''

''SQUEE!''

''I'm glad you agree.''

With a sharp dive you begin your descent and slow down just as you're about to hit the ground.
The landing is smooth and only causes a slight gust of wind to blow through your surroundings.
It takes about two minutes for you on foot to reach the location where that infamous Substitute Shinigami is and when you get there boy do you get a smile.

Ichigos lifeless, soul-less body is about to be taken by the ambulance just as the boy is struggling to squeeze his astral body back in the real one.
Just as the medics are about to hit him with a fully charge defibrillator his eyes snap open in a panic and he sits up.

Motherly hallibel practically oozes happiness, even from those few lines of text, cute.
>>
>>1365384

Goddammit kid, store your corpse somewhere people won't stumble over it.

Saves time and doesn't inconvenience anyone.

Punk's running around like he's a Kamen Rider for fuck's sake.

Newsflash Ichigo, your transformation sequence leaves a /corpse/.
>>
You spot Rukia also trying her best to hold back her laughter and make your way to her.
As you get closer to her she actually notices your presence.
It wasn't her sense of reiatsu mind you, more like she simply felt someone creeping up on her.
Sometimes you forget that she still used to be a high ranking shinigami who has seen her fair share of fighting.

She reaches for her sword and turns around to face you.
''Who's-
Oh... It's you Kaizar.
Sorry for snapping like that.''

''Don't apologize.
It's my fault for not calling out to you.
I guess it's a force of habit for the both of us.
...
Huh?!''
Your eyes are drawn to her armpit where the plush lion called Kon is tucked away.
''What's he doing here?''

*sigh*
''I've been trying to get that blockhead Ichigo to use him...
As you can see he got reckless with that badge of his.''

''And you're tired of cleaning up his mess.''

''EXACTLY!''
She squeezes Kon so hard he almost throws up.
Can a plush toy even throw up?

''By the way, what did you mean by using him?''

''He might be a mod soul but his core is still usable as a Gikon.
If one ingest the pill that's his soul the original owner of the body will be ejected and replaced by the new one.''

''And... the difference between a mod soul and a Gikon is...''

''Mod souls are just enhanced and modified Gikon meant for fighting.
Kon might be a bad fighter and a coward but that's more like the exception.''

''I see.''

''Now if you'll excuse me I'll go ahead and get ba-''

*Beep Beep*

Rukia then whips out her communicator.
''Again?
We just dealt with one.''
She then pauses for a moment.
''Oh! I'm so sorry!''

*sigh*
''Don't be.
I can't get mad over every hollow slain.
And I also can't deny that some of us don't deserve it.''

*phew*
''So... Do you want to come along?''

You're not sure about that.
On one hand you don't have anything better to do, on the other it might leave a bit of a bad taste in your mouth.
So you started sniffing the air just to get a good grasp on the hollows numbers and approximate strength.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LU7WJQrpswM

And you feel something. Something strange, something alien.
The smell you feel is unlike anything you've felt before.
It feels empty, devoid of any emotion.

You slowly open your eyes and speak up.
''Hey Rukia...''

''Huh?''

''Yeah I'd like to come.
I just felt something weird right now.''

''Erm... should I be worried?
What exactly did you feel?''

''I'm... not sure.
That signal of yours. It has a strange smell.''

''Smell?''

You nod.
''The reiatsu of people have all sorts of distinctions.
Not only is every single signature different, like a fingerprint, they also respond to ones emotional state.
Someone who's angry, happy or scared have very different reiatsu compared to those that aren't.''

''And?''

''This one had no such thing.
It was just a mass of energy, nothing more.
It felt different, detached from all emotion.''

''Okay...''
She pauses.
''All the more reason to go there and see if it's dangerous.''

''I agree.''

Then Rukia turns around and gives the order to her gigai which is currently inhabited by a Gikon.
''Chappy!''

''Pyon?''

''We'll have to head out, follow us to our destination but keep your distance unless I start coming to you.''

''Understood-pyon!''

Rukia then starts walking to Ichigo and shoves Kon into his hands.
''Ichigo!
Another signal just came in.
Use Kon this time!''

''Right, right.
Quit-
...
Is that Kaizar over there?''

''There is no time.
But yes, that's him.''

''I see.''
Without hesitation Ichigo punches the plush lion and swallows the green pill that comes out of its mouth.
He then separates from his body and comes to you.

''Hello there, Kaizar.
Why is it that every time you show up something bad happens?''

''Don't blame me, blame the shitty world we live in.
Now then, shall we?''

''After you.''

>>1365451

Ichigo and Rukia apparently take their shinigami business very seriously as they are going at breakneck speed to the source of the signals.
As you get closer and closer to the place you start feeling something deep within the reaches of your soul.
Not necessarily The Hunger mind you but something very similar to it.
You feel saliva building up in your mouth.

Using the sleeve of your coat you wipe away a few drops of drool that escaped the confounds of your mouth just in time for your jaw to open wide as you finally see the source of that strange nagging feeling in the far reaches of your mind.

A sea of whiteness with dots of red spreads out before you.
Its movement is rather mesmerizing to look at as the small red things bob up and down like ships on milky waters.
Ichigo can't contain his surprise any longer as the small body of ''water'' below and before you starts to disperse into small white shrouds that shamble around aimlessly.

''The hell is this?!''

''I... have no idea.''
Rukia answers him, saving you the trouble.

All of you land down and look at the ghastly creatures before you.
You call them creatures because despite their eerie appearance they possess the proportions and movements of humans.
Eventually Ichigo gathers up his courage and walks a bit closer to them.

One of the creatures stops before the boy, sizes him up and then moves around him as if he's barely even there.
The boy extends one finger and bops the thing on its red head and it responds by moving around like a buoy but it otherwise barely even responds.

Now Rukia walks up to one and cautiously tries to perform soul burial on one of them by gently tapping it on the ''head'' with the hilt of her blade.
But nothing happens.

Being a spirit you hesitate to call these things ghosts but their appearance fits the typical depiction of the lingering soul of the deceased.
That coupled with their ghastly movements and apparent disregard of everyone and everything makes you rather uncomfortable.

''Kaizar... do you know what these things are?''
Ichigo asks you.

''No clue.
I've never seen anything that even resembles these things.''
You turn your attention to the other Substitute Shinigami.
''Rukia?''

''I'm just as lost as you are.
I don't even know what to do with these things.''

You start pondering on your possible course of action.

I'm starting to think the SS is just massively incompetent in almost everything they do, y'know?
>>
''I may have no clue about these things but leaving them alone is probably a bad idea.
But they don't appear to be hostile so let's just try and keep them in place.''

''And how do you suppose we do that?''
Ichigo asks.

''Kaizar...''
Rukia speaks up.
''Can you create a thread or a web?''

You reach out and a large globe of mucus begins to gather in your palm.
''Of course I can.
But it probably won't be able to hold them back if they all went at it at once.''

''No need.
Just make sure that you create a ring around them.''

You nod and start dragging a thread around the area.
Once the web encircles them you take a step back and look at Rukia.
''Now what?''

''Now it's my turn.''
She draws her sword and starts turning it before herself counter-clockwise.
''Dance, Sode no Shirayuki!''
Her sword turns pale white and a long, white ribbon extends from the pommel.

She walks up to your web and touches a single strand.
In but a few seconds the entire thing starts freezing over until the ice forms a thick wall using your web as its framework.
Taking a few steps back Rukia examines her work and nods.

''Good.
That should hold them back.''

You whistle at her swift work.
''Nice.
Ice based sword?''

''More like cold.
But yes.''
She turns back and looks at the wall.
''I'm surprised that it froze that quickly though...''

''I'm pretty susceptible to extreme temperatures.
Then again, I horribly fare against most elemental stuff other than water.''

''Really?''
Ichigo speaks up in surprise.

''Yeah.
But back to the matter at hand.
Rukia...''
You turn to the shinigami.
''Can you contact Urahara?''

''Yeah.''
She whips out her phone and starts dialing.
''Urahara-san!
Mmhm, no.
Listen, I know you're aware of the huge soul signature coming from the park.
We're here at this very moment and have visual on the things but have no clue about what they are.
Could you take a look at them?''

She removes the phone from her head and points it towards the icy prison and then changes the phones setting to ''Loud''.

''Oh my...
I do believe these are Blanks.''

''Blanks?''

''Oh hey there Kaizar!
I haven't seen you there!
But yes, Blanks. Or at least I think.
I've never actually seen one before.''

''Erm... how should I explain this?''
He scratches his head on the small screen.
''Do you remember the Dangai?''
You nod.
''Well it's basically a tunnel between Soul Society and the Living world and every soul that passes onto the next world has to pass through it.
However sometimes souls might get ejected from the cycle of death and rebirth.
They wander aimlessly outside of the Dangai until they loose all sense of self and individuality.
Basically their souls get separated from their memories.
And these souls are what we call Blanks.''

''Their memories get separated from them?''

''It's tough to explain and I'm certain it's harder to grasp.
But the gist of it is that as the souls float around the endless void they just stop thinking after a while and with the connection between the mind and soul weakens the two separate.
It's theorized that the ''memories'' being much denser than the soul gravitate towards each other, eventually forming something called a Shinenju.
An amalgamation of countless minds and memories.''

You frown at that as it sounds eerily familiar to Aaronieros own ability.
''That can't be good.''

''It's not.''
He resumes.
''Such a thing is dangerously volatile and unstable at best.
But that's not the worst.
You see, Blanks are still drawn to their past memories.
And while normally docile they can become dangerous if the Shinenju is in a close proximity to them.''

''So what's the best course of action in a situation like this?''

''Honestly?
I have no idea.
I've never even heard about so many Blanks appearing at once.
Usually it's only a handful at best.''

You start humming to yourself as you ponder on the implications.
And then it hits you.
''Urahara...''

''Hmm?''

''You said these things are formed if something ''falls out'' of the Dangai.
Correct?''

''Yup.''

''Would the same thing apply to the Garganta?''

Urahara sighs at that.
''Yes.
But only because the Dangai itself is nothing more than a stable channel located within the Garganta.
And before you ask, yes stable points exist even within the Garganta.
But this issue probably doesn't have anything to do with your end.
Hollows aren't really know for falling into the Abyss all that often.''

''That's not what I meant.
Earlier when I came here I felt something odd in the Garganta.
Call it... an unusually strong current of wind.''

''Hmmm...
That sounds worrying...
I'll have to look into that.''

''Worrying?''

''Something must have disturbed the typical flow of reishi.
And that thing is most assuredly a Valley of Screams.
It's basically a stable pocket dimension of varying size embedded in the Garganta.
These are created when a lot of Blanks gather in one place and fuse due to the insane pressure of the Garganta.
And judging by the number of these Blanks that valley must be a big one...''
>>
''So let me get things straight.
These... things. Are barely more than just reishi.''

''Eh... more like barely sentient masses of reishi operating only on the most primal of instincts.''

''And they are bad news.''

''In essence.''

''And if we want to get rid of them we need to find a MacGuffin.''

''Correct.''

''Okay. Thanks for clarifying.''

''No problem.
Now if you'll excuse me I'd like to look into the Garganta after what you've just said.
I'll contact you if I find out anything.''
And with that he hangs up.

Then the two shinigami next to you look in your direction.
''So... what do we with these things?
Do we just... leave them here?''
Ichigo asks.

''Well... We can't really leave them here now can we?''

''Wait... you don't mean-''

''What? You'd just kill them.
At least this way they won't go to waste.
And it's not like they mind. You heard it.
These things are mindless.''

''Ugh...
Just... do it while we don't watch.
Okay?''

''Thank you!''
You jump up eagerly to the top of the icy construct and start rubbing your two hands together and lick your lips in anticipation.
And so does Wiggles.

Eagerly you jump down and bash in the soft head of one of the Blanks and quickly start cramming its soft, squishy flesh into your mouth.
All the while your little pet is content with nibbling on any scraps that do inevitably fall down from you.
The Blanks offer no resistance nor do they particularly mind being gobbled up by the dozens.
Even the ones you're chewing don't seem to really register that you're devouring them.
Only once you start going a bit out of control in your little feast do they start showing any signs of emotion.

As your instincts start kicking in and your bloodlust skyrockets they start exhibiting fear of all things.
They start quivering as if they're shaking and one by one they back up to the opposite end of the cage as their brethren slowly trickle down from the corners of your mouth and your eyes start glowing blood red.
With your mind clouded by your own frenzy you let out a loud roar that shakes the icy structure around you and shove the remaining blanks into yourself.

The creatures were all flavor but no substance.
No matter how many of them you consumed they didn't really quench your hunger and instead made you crave them even more, hence the reason for your unusual behavior.
Your hunting instincts essentially kicked into a higher gear in order to satiate yourself on a source of food that couldn't even fill you.
And in the end all you did is slip into a blood fueled haze.

As the last of the Blanks go down you reel back a bit and hold your head as it starts hurting like hell.
''Oh... Damn...
That didn't feel good...
It's like swallowing cotton balls.''

Recovering from your little blood rage you finally try to make sense of what just happened.
Apparently you still managed to draw energy from the consumed Blanks however you'd rather not go through that process again since it might have been almost comfortable during the process, right now all you feel is regret.

Meanwhile the two shinigamis outside are a bit worried about you and your altered behavior.

''Erm... Kaizar...
Are you sure you're okay?''

*cough*
''Yes. Thanks for asking.
It's just...
Have you ever had that one meal?
That was good while you were eating it but the second you finished you immediately regretted it?''

''Ugh...
Yeah...''

''Well... it doesn't matter anymore.''
*burp*
''At least that's dealt with.
Now these things won't pose a threat to anyone.''

But as you said that you start feeling a certain presence approaching.
Cautiously you look up at the mouth of the ice prison and see a shadow dart past it.
Like a blur it moves directly above you and you start feeling an increasing spiritual pressure pushed you downward.

''Call forth the Twilight! Mirokumaru!''
A voice, belonging to the strange reiatsu can be heard coming from above.

Soon enough you feel a powerful gust of wind hitting you with an alarming amount of force and as it whips up the dust particles around you it also starts causing deep tissue damage even through your Híerro.
With a loud grunt you clench your fists and grit your teeth as your only option now is to endure this punishment until either it ends or the two shinigami on your side start doing something about your attacker.

And sure enough you do hear one of them calling out for their sword.
''Dance!''

''...No!''

''Sode no Shirayuki!''

''No no no!''

''Some no mai, Tsukishiro!''

''NONONONONONONO-''
And then you felt a sudden coldness enveloping you completely as a pillar of pure ice is erected where you stood.

Luckily for you only your mucus and the upper layers of your skin froze a bit so you could still feel pretty much all of your bodyparts and could see what was happening on the outside.
Unfortunately however your attacker seems to have dodged Rukias technique completely and managed to land safely.
Angered by this you flex your muscles and all the ice around you shatters to a million pieces.
You turn around and look at the newcomer shinigami with the look of death in your eyes.

And here I thought we were having a nice afternoon, some bitch gotta come along and hack into Kaizar's shoulder.
>>
To be fair she did just see you devour a literal army of maybe(?) sentient creatures that were very much scared of you.

But nevertheless

>writing
>>
With but a swipe of your hand the ice structure made by Rukia shatters to a thousand pieces and you walk through the falling hail with one hand on the hilt of Basilisco and the other pointing at the shinigami intruder.

''YOU!''
You stomp closer and closer to her and she gets visibly shaken.
''THE FUCK'S YOUR PROBLEM?!''

''K-Kaizar there's no need-''

''FUCK OFF ICHIGO!
YOU'RE NOT THE ONE THAT GOT ICED IN THERE!''

''To be fair that was more my-''

''NOT TALKING TO YOU RUKIA!''
You turn back to the girl.
''YOU! EXPLAIN! NOW!''

''Come on Kaizar, just calm down.''

''I AM CALM!''

Looking at your exchange with Ichigo Rukia sighs and turns back to the girl.
''Sorry about that.
Please don't mind them.
Now then, who are you and what are you doing here?''

''I'm Senna.''

''Senna? That's odd.
And which division are you from?
I was under the impression that Karakura town is under someone elses jurisdiction.''

''Idunno.''

Rukia just blinks at that a few times.
''Y-you... don't know.''

''Nah. I forgot.''

''O-okay, I'm not even going to bother.
Then why did you attack us?''

''You?!
I only attacked that obvious hollow over there!''

''I'M AN ARRANCAR YOU BITCH!''

''Same difference.
But I saw him eating those things so it became pretty obvious that I should attack him.
I mean... I was going to kill those white... thingies myself but that was way out of line.''

''L-Look.''
Rukia tries reasoning with the girl.
''I appreciate the enthusiasm but you really could have hurt yourself!
Don't you know who that guy is?!
Oh who am I kidding? Of course you don't. You don't even know your own division.''

*sigh*
''Whatever...
I may not know my own division but I know what I did is right and why I'm here.
So there's that. No need to thank me.
And thanks for the help back there but you really could've warned me before attacking.''

''Y-you...
I wasn't trying to help you! I wanted to help Him!''

''But... why would you want to help a hollow?''

''Look... rookie-''

''Hey don't call me a rookie Lady!
My name is Senna! Get it right already you old hag!''

After hearing this Rukia gets about as fuming mad as you are and begins cursing profusely.
Ichigo now has to try his best to calm down the two of you.
''Guys, guys! Please!
Just calm down! Deep breaths!
Okay? Good.''

He leaves you to sulk together and goes to Senna.
''Senna, right? Do you really not remember anything?''

''Nope.''

''Do you at least know when you arrived from Soul Society?''

She muses for a moment before answering.
''Oh yeah! I woke up this morning next to the river!
So that's when I must have arrived!''
>>
>>1365955
I fucking hated this movie, I hope we can eat her.

>>1365963

This is why we need to just eat her then.

>>1365980
I was more concerned with exposing it to all those lost hopes, dreams and wishes.
They're fine individually but I worry they would make each other drastically unstable.
>>
>>1366010
Nah, maybe it'd actually connect them and make them better?

''Right... and you also said that you wanted to kill those Blanks.
Does that mean you know what they are?''

''Nope.
I was just listening to my gut instincts.
You can never go wrong like that!''

''I'm hating her more and more with every second...''
You grumble.

''I agree!''


''Guys!''
Ichigo turns to you.
''Look. I get it.
But right now we have other things to worry about.
Like that Shinenju stuff that Urahara-san mentioned.
If we are going to find it we'll all need to pitch in and the more of us are looking for it the easier it'll be to find it!''

''I dunno...''
Senna muses.
''I'm not too comfortable working with a hollow.''

''Listen Senna, it might sound weird but he's a good guy.''

''Yeah, I get it.
But I still don't care!
I have other stuff to do!''

Then she begins twirling around and in an amber flash of light and the autumn leaves dancing around her she... materializes a gigai out of nowhere...
Seeing this you manage to forget about your all consuming rage and so does Rukia.

''D-did you see that?''

''Y-yeah...''
You grab your chest and feel a slight pulse coming from the Hogyoku which confirms your suspicion.

This girl is probably the Shinenju.
>>
And that's where I think I'll take a break.

I shall return later and resume where we left off.
So pay attention to my twitter
>>
>>1366030

Welp, time to kill her then. Or not.

I forget how this movie is supposed to go.
>>
>>1366037
thanks spooky, I'm only disspointed i have to suffer through this shitty movie side arc again.
>>
>>1366042
wait... again?
who did it?

I only follow Shinigami Savant and even that I mostly skip and binge read at the end of every month
>>
>>1366054
No no, I meant I watched the movie and now I'm reading the movie. I fucking HATED it, not that somebody else ran it in there quest.
>>
Hol' up, what if Aaroniero is an arrancar that was created from a hollow that was born from a shinenju? Possibly an alternative route to gillian level? Spooky mentioned it earlier, and it got me thinking.

I mean, Senna is basically a functional spiritual being wrapped around a bunch of bullshit memories, are there any rules saying that a similar being wouldn't be able to become a hollow?

It would explain why Aaroniero had soul memory cancer until we fixed him. It'd be pretty easy to test the hypothesis as well, just pull ol' Jarhead into an area with Blanks in it and see how they react.

I wonder what would happen if Senna became a Vizard.
>>
>>1366054
I now realize i know next to nothing about this particular side arc. Time for research!
>>
>>1366071
well I guess it's a matter of preference then.

Back when I first saw the movie I liked it but after I rewatched it for the sake of research I disliked it a bit.

But still this is one of the movies that I'll cover.
I can't even remember Fade to Black and I frankly hated Diamond Dust.
Hell Verse is not bad but it was way too overhyped and it had fake advertisement which didn't help.
Also for being the only thing covering Hell it explained basically fuck all.


Aaaand what else?
Oh right! Filler.

I did the bounts already which I liked.
There is only one more filler arc that I can remember and liked and that's the Muramasa arc.
So I think that'll be the only remaining filler, after which we'll go straight to the meat grinder that's the Blood war
>>
>>1366160
Was Muramasa the guy who stopped time and shit?

I liked the Hell Arc, if not because it just showed that hell is escapeable and that hell? creatures can run around.
>>
And I just remembered the one filler arc that I forgot to even mention, which should be a clear indicator of whether or not I'll do it.

And that's the Amagai Shusui/Bakoto or whateverthefuck arc.

That had such a small impression on me that I won't even bother wasting your or anyones time with it
>>
>>1366172
No, Muramasa was the anti-zanpakuto Zanpakuto guy.

You know, the first guy who did the ''what if X character fought Y or even X himself'' stuff.
The Reigai arc felt to me like doing the Muramasa arc all over again...
>>
>>1366179
Ah, Really he was more of a sad puppy but I enjoyed it. Kinda worried now what the fuck ours and Ichigos Zanpakuto will be like now.
>>
>>1366179

Shittily I might add.

Shinigami Savant managed to make it somewhat awesome though.
>>
>>1366188
>Fused Zanpakuto(Hollow)/Quincy loosed on soul society at length while acting like it's an active fullbring.
I'm not saying Muramasa fucked himself, but you know.

>>
>>1367420
Yep, unlike SS we don't undergo forced schizophrenia in order to get our powers, just good old fashioned cannibalism LIKE GOD INTENDED.
>>
>>1367843
this being said i wonder if aaroniero could just pretend to have a sword spirit by sealing a set of memories in his sword
>>
>>1367974
Considering that his memory bank got kinda wiped clean during his operation so it doesn't drive him mad it'd be hard to do that.

Right now the only set of extra memories he has is from Kaien.

Oh and he has Nejibana already, which is a proper zanpakuto
>>
You look at Rukia and she looks back at you.
Nervous about Senna conjuring a gigai out of nowhere she asks you the question that's on both of your minds.

''Do....
Do you think we...''

''Do something about that?''

She starts whispering to you.
''Yes.
I mean... I was expecting it to be some sort of item. Not a person.''

''You're not alone.
But Mr Clogs said that the Shinenju is important.
So we can't just let her walk around all willy nilly.''

''But...
She's a person!
I mean... Abducting her while she has no idea why we do it is...
Very messed up!''

*sigh*
''Still...
If we don't do it things might get out of control.''

You start walking forward as you keep an eye on both Ichigo and the girl herself.

''Hey!''
He tries talking to Senna.
''W-Where are you going?!''

''I told you!
I have other stuff to do!''
Following that she turns around on her heels and starts walking away but not before you manage to grab her by the arm.
''HEY!
What are you doing?!
Let me go!''
She shouts at you as she tries to pull free of your hold.

''You're not going anywhere... girl.''

''KAIZAR!
THE HELL?!''

''Shut up Ichigo and use your head for once!
Didn't you see what she just did?
She's obviously the thing that we're looking for!''

''So it's okay to grab her like that?''

''Ichigo!''
Rukia shouts at the boy.
''Senna IS the Shinenju!''

''W-What?!''

''She's right.''
You speak up.
''She literally just conjured a physical body out of nowhere!''

''So? That's not even in the top ten weirdest things we've seen!''

''Ichigo!
I'm not arguing about this!
We're taking this girl to Urahara right now!''

But as you say that while Senna is struggling to break free you feel something colliding against your arm and...
Cutting right through it?
The arm with which you held Senna in place is severed just a bit under your elbow and you shout in pain.
''FUCK!''

Senna lets out a terrified scream as your blood splatters on her and she makes a run for it as soon as she can.
Ichigo reaches out to the girl and starts following her.
''SENNA! WAIT!''

In the meantime you're busy grunting as your arm aches where it was severed.
By focusing all your energy into the injured part your healing is drastically sped up and a new limb sprouts out,
A drop of sweat rolls down your forehead as the pain slowly leaves your body.

''Who... has the balls?''

As if just waiting for that a robust, black man jumps out from behind a larger wall.
''Hah!
Sorry about that!
But I couldn't really allow you to take the girl away.''

''Bastard!''

Rukia hurries next to you and draws her zanpakuto.
''Kaizar!
Are you alright?''

''I'm fine!
But this guy... he won't be!''
>>

''Now, now!
Don't bite off more than you can chew little man!
After all... you're outnumbered!''
The black man taunts you.

''What?!''
You can't help but shout as the mans last sentence catches you off guard.
And soon enough you sense a large amount of reishi swirling below you as dozens upon dozens of Blanks emerge from the ground.

Rukia, in her surprise uses shunpo to get next to you and draws her sword.
''Kaizar!
We're surrounded!''

''Yeah...
Looks like being tangible is just a thing they do whenever they feel like it.''
Then as you reach for your sword you bump Rukia in the back and start whispering to her.
''Be careful...
That guys weapons are something else.
It cut through my iron skin like butter.''

''Right...''

''OY!
DIDN'T YOUR MAMA TEACH YOU THAT WHISPERING IN PUBLIC IS CONSIDERED BAD MANNERS?!''
The black man throws one of his blades to you in his tantrum.

Seeing the projectile this time you raise your sword and block it easily.
Then as it lost all of its momentum you grab it with your free hand and pull it closer to examine it.
You raise the thing to your wrist and gently move it across your skin and find it cutting through it without any effort what so ever.

''Nice toy.
Sharp too.
I think I'll keep it.''

''Feel free!''
The man shouts to you and lets out a grin.

At that instant you see the thing slowly starting to glow and in a fit of panic you toss it in the air just before it explodes.
Then your assailant extends his arm and you see one of the Blanks turning into a fine mist and gathering in his open hand.
The mass of reishi then slowly takes shape and transforms into another blade like the one you just destroyed.

''Like our toys?
They are like obsidian!
Their edges are barely a molecule wide!''

''So that razor edge slips between the molecules and severs them?!''

''BINGO!''

''Crap...''
You curse as the reality of your situation sets in and the Blanks reveal their thin, almost stick like appendages and approach you with clear malicious intent.
''Rukia... can you hold out while I deal with that asshole?''

''Judging by how easily Senna dispatched them?
Probably.''

''Hmmm...
I just remembered something.''

''What?''
Rukia asks you.

''That blade made from the Blanks exploded, didn't it?''

''Yeah... so that means-
Oh no.''

You nod.
''That's my idea.
If these things can blow themselves up...''

''So what's the plan?''

''No restraints.''
You raise Basilisco before you and it starts emitting a powerful glow.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q8X1_EcPRl8

Rukia then sighs and starts spinning her blade.
''Dance!''

''Mend and Maim!''

''Sode no Shirayuki!''

''Basilisco!''

Your reiatsu manage to intertwine flawlessly and they form a circle around you as it swirls around.
Rukias white aura compliments your turquoise very well and the Blanks must think so as well as they pretty much stopped their advance.
Whether from awe or fear you're not sure but it doesn't even matter.

''Kaizar!''

''Hmmm?''

''Jump.''

Not wasting another second you do so and Rukia calls out for her sword.
''San no mai, Shirafune!''

The air around you cools down rapidly and the moisture turns into a thick, cold fog full of sleet.
All that frozen water then rapidly gathers around her sword and it begins assimilating it and therefore growing longer.
Letting out a loud scream she swings her sword in a circular motion around herself and it severs the top halves of the Blanks from their bottom halves.
Following that attack the excess parts of her sword start to crumble, leaving her with her regular weapon.

You land just as Sode no Shirayuki finishes reverting and clench both your hands together into fists and then extend your index fingers, forming a gun.
''Lágrima!'
From the tips of your fingers you shoot out tiny drops of mucus that cause the heads of the Blanks to pop like balloons.
You keep firing your bullets as you spin around and seeing this Rukia crouches down so she can give you a better shot.

By the time you finish none of the Blanks remain, thanks to Rukia getting rid of the nearby ones while you handled the ones out of her range.
The black man just looks at this and he's left speechless.
>>
>>1368332
Black man gonna get gased
>>
You can see him swallowing hard and you take that moment of hesitation to ambush him.
Using Sonído you rushed next to him and grabbed hold of one of his hands.

''What the?!''
He notices that you grabbed his hand and tries to break free of but quickly he realizes that it's futile.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QE1ScwL4Jmo

Once he realizes that his left hand is not going to be freed anytime soon he pulls back his right hand and prepares to strike you with the weapon in it but you quickly wrap your tail around it so tight that no matter how much he might try it won't move an inch.
In fact if he truly would try his best to break free of your tails hold he'd sooner break his own arm than doing anything else.

''Not going anywhere?''
You speak up and as you do you slowly but gradually start tightening your hold on his arm.

His terror becomes easily visible as beads of sweat start appearing on his forehead.
In his panic he struggles more and more in the vain attempts of breaking free.
He even goes as far as to plant his foot in your chest so he can pull on his arms harder but it doesn't change a thing.

''P-PLEASE! STOP!''
He starts begging you as he's in more and more pain.

But you don't listen to his request and keep closing your fist until a loud crunching noise starts coming from his arm and it gets louder and louder.
You finally close your hand completely and let go of the poor guy.
He reels back now that you're no longer holding him in place and starts clutching the limb that now hangs on but a few strands of skin.

''WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU?!''

''I... liked that arm.''

''OH?! OH REALLY?!''
He then does the unexpected and cuts off the dangling, ruined limb with the weapon in his intact hand.
After grunting a few times he raises his mutilated limb and Blanks start appearing once more and they fly towards him.
As soon as they take the shape of a brand new arm the black man gets cocky once more.
''THEN I'LL KEEP CUTTING THAT ARM OF YOURS UNTIL IT DOESN'T GROW BACK!
SO YOU CAN MISS IT EVEN MORE!''

Having said that he charges you.
''You just don't get it... do you?''

You pull back your fist and deliver a casual punch straight into his gut.
It may not have taken much effort from you but the force of it still spread through his body like he was just hit by a truck.
His eyes roll back and he throws up a bit as he still desperately tries to hang onto consciousness.
You flick him on the forehead and he falls to the ground.

Seeing this Rukia hurries to you.
''I-Is he alive?''

''Barely.
I let him live because he might provide us with some information.''

>Let's take him to Urahara
>Tie him to a post and start interrogating him

As satisfying as it would be to try and beat the information out of him, Urahara can probably get more out of him than an old-fashioned interrogation.

Or if push comes to shove, he'll just let Kaizar take over the interrogation. Either way, it's productive.

Lets not be so totally monstrous in front of the squeemish little soul-reaper. I mean we are still trying to convince soul society Arrancars are not cannibalistic monsters that will take any excuse to eat you, eating bits of our prisoner seems a bit out of character for Kaizer.

*sigh*
''I guess it's for the best if we take him to Urahara.
He needs to be informed about the Shinenju as well...''

''Agreed.''
She then raises her hand and forms a cone with it.
''CHAPPY!
GO TO THE URAHARA SHOP AND WAIT FOR ME THERE!''

After that you both kicked into high gear and took off towards the Urahara shop at top speed.
In but a few short minutes you arrived before the shop and most unusually Kisuke himself is standing at the front door.

''Well hello there!
I suppose you have some urgent business with me.
Given how you threw all subtlety out the window just now.
I think you might've broken a few windows on the way here.''

''Can it Urahara.''
You shut him off quickly.
''We got somethin' for you.''
You give the big fellow resting on your shoulder a nudge to draw Kisukes attention to him.

''Oh boy! A dead body!
You shouldn't have!''

''Urahara-san.
We managed to find the Shinenju.''

''So... that guy-''

''No.
This man attacked us when we discovered it.
Apparently he didn't want us to get our hands on her.''

''Her?
Uh-oh.
I was afraid that might be the case.
So the Shinenju materialized as a person...
That's bad.''

You cock an eyebrow at that.
''Is that unusual?''

''A bit.
But please, bring the man in.
I'll take a look at him and explain our situation in detail.''
>>
You follow the creepy man inside and put down the black dude on your shoulder into a corner:
Urahara doesn't waste much time and takes out a small flashlight and forces the mans eyelids open before shining his light into them.

''Damn...
You really did a number on him.
It's unlikely he'll get to his senses for at least a couple hours.
Buuuut... did you say he attacked you when you got near the Shinenju?''
You nod.
''Then I got a few ideas about who he might be...''

Urahara leaves the man and sits down to his little table.
''You see... we got a problem.''

''Of course we fucking do...''
You sigh.

''You see...
I've been looking into things in relation to... well, everything.
The Valley of Screams, the Blanks and the Shinenju.
And things aren't looking too good right now.
You see... apparently Soul Society and the Human Realm... well, how should I say this?
It looks like they are gonna collide.''

Rukia gasps at this.
''What do you mean by this?!''

''Well...
Remember the things I said about the Valley of Screams?
It looks like that there is one positioned right between the two realms... and it's expanding.
That's where all these Blanks and the Shinenju came from.
Now, normally a Valley can't really grow this big. So judging by its size and position...''

''Somebody is behind it.''

''Precisely.
The likelihood of all these circumstances matching the way they do is astronomical.''

''So what are the implications Urahara?''
You ask him.
''How come the two realms are going to collide if there is a Valley between them?
Shouldn't it have the opposite effect and push them away from each other?''

''Not necessarily.
You see, the Valley is getting so big that its borders will soon reach both the boundaries of Soul Society and this world.
And once they do, they'll act as a bridge between the two realms.
Having the link established between them they'll start exerting a sort of gravitational pull on each other and-''
He claps his hands together.
''BLAM!
Game over.''

Your eyes shift to the unconscious man in the corner.
''And it's very likely that this man is responsible for this...''

''Or at least partially responsible.
Either way, we're in quite a pickle indeed.''

''So... what do we do about it?''

''The same thing you've been up to, honestly.
That Valley can only exist because something is forcing an unusual amount of Blanks together.
If we remove the source of this anomaly the situation should fix itself...''

''Meaning that-''

''Yes. Kill the Shinenju.
Or! The ones responsible for this whole mess.''

Hearing Urahara say it out loud freaks Rukia out quite a bit.
''Then... what should we do?''
She looks at you.

''Rukia!
I'll leave searching for Senna to you.
No doubt your blockhead of a boyfriend is chasing her as we speak.''

''Tch...
Fine.
And let me guess, you'll try to find where these people came from?''

''Exactly.''

''Any ideas?''

''No. But I'll think of something.
Now then... I'm counting on you.''

She nods.
''I'll do my best.''

''And... I hate to ask this.
But if it's necessary... you know what to do.''

Her expression darkens a fair bit.
''I... I understand.''

Proceeding to search for the ones responsible for this incident you say farewell to both Urahara and Rukia.
As you fly through the sky you start pondering about your next move and a potential place of origin for these mysterious foes.
Failing to come up with a solution you look down at your front pocket.
''Any suggestions lil' buddy?''

Captain Wiggles pops out of your pocket and starts wagging his gills at you.
''SQUEE!''
He points at the river.

''No... this is not a good time for a bath-''
Just as you said that clarity suddenly comes to you.
''Heeey!
You're right! That girl!
She said she woke up by the river!''

With a sharp turn you change your course towards the river running through Karakura Town.
Using your rather ludicrous speed you scour the entire length of the thing in pretty much no time and find exactly what you were looking for.
Deep down in the water is the hazy image of a world that's obviously somewhere far away.

''Bingo!''
You snap your fingers.

Just to be sure you look all around yourself before concluding that nobody is guarding the entrance.
Granted, it's very well hidden in an unlikely place but it's still stupid that they left it unchecked like that.
Regardless of that you take a dive and hit the portal head first.
It offers little resistance before you pop right on through the barrier around it.
After breaching through you find yourself in an empty wasteland that reminds you a lot of home, minus the sand and the permanent twilight.

''So...
This is the Valley of Screams, huh?''

''SQUEE!''

''I agree.
Let's clean up this mess and leave this dreary place behind...''
>>
Destroy it all

Closing your eyes you use Pesquísa to scan your environment and immediately notice something odd.
Pretty much as Hat and Clogs said the entire realm is composed of Blanks, meaning the place radiates the same odd and bland reiatsu that those creatures do only much greater in magnitude.
Still, as annoying as all that spiritual white noise is, it made detecting anything that's NOT composed of Blanks that much easier.

''Found you!''
You speak up as you find exactly five distinct reiatsu signatures.
''Huh... that was almost too easy.
Like finding black dots on a white wall.
Now then... let's use the element of surprise to its fullest, shall we?''

''SQUEE!''

You crack a smile and your knuckles before you land on the ground and slowly sneak your way across the rocky terrain to your targets.
If the Blanks ever expressed any sign of autonomy you might be worried that they notify their masters about an intruder but as things stand sneaking up on the five spirits was all too easy.
As you arrive to a large clearing you spot the five souls standing in the middle of an open field.
Four of them look rather similar to one another with the fifth being the odd one out of them with his long, flowing cape.

''Looks like I found the head asshole...
Now if only I could hear them...''

You spot a rather large rock in the middle and decide to make your way behind it.
Focusing on the task at hand you try to minimize the booming sound of your Sonído so you remain undetected.
And for the most part you're successful.

Only one of the five appear to have heard you and even they aren't certain if it was anything important.
The woman concluding that it must have been her imagination returns her attention to the central figure in the middle.

''But Ganryu-sama!''
The large guy with the cloth over his face speaks up.
''They beat Jai! Without too much effort I might add!''

''And I'm telling you to relax.
He may be a lost cause at this point but the Shinenju is still out there.
All we have to do is get her before they do. Whatever happens afterwards doesn't matter.
In the end we'll win.''

''And what about Jai?''
The woman asks the leader.

''Depending on the situation we'll of course try to save him.
However! I don't want you to have any illusions about the situation.
If we simply don't have enough time or power to save him then we'll have to proceed as planned without him.
I'd like to avoid leaving him in the colliding realms but that's a possibility we can't rule out.''

''I've heard enough Wiggles.
These are the guys, no doubt about it.''

''You know...
I don't usually use these kind of tactics...
But damn if they aren't fun!''

You crack a smile as you finish talking to your pet and jump up.
The spirits below did notice that and they're already mobilizing in order to stop you.
Your pet can barely contain himself as you open up your palms and cut both of them so hard that you draw blood.
After putting your hands together you start channeling as much energy into the currently forming Cero as you can muster.

The king blue ball starts growing so large in your hands that arcs of lightning start shooting out from it.
These bursts of energy are so powerful that as they connect with the ground below they start reshaping the landscape by tearing new crevices into the canyon.
''GRAN REY CERO!''

The spirits below you barely had enough time to even react to your attack.
Granted, most of that had to do with the fact that upon seeing the frankly gargantuan amount of energy that you decided to mobilize against them probably caused all of them to be a tiny bit scared for their lives.
Regardless, it doesn't change the fact that all five of them disappear in a flash of blue agony.
Even through the roaring of the Cero you can hear their agonizing screams as their flesh turns to dust, then liquefies and finally vaporizes.
By the time your blast starts to dissipate not even a trace remains of them.

Your knees give in from the exhaustion and as you pant you try to observe the fruit of your work.
Originally you intended to blow up the entire Valley but sadly that didn't happen.
Mind you the damage to the terrain is extensive.

Where there used to be an extensive network of caves, crevices, plateaus, hills and other such formations is now a massive crater.
Even back when you were alive you haven't seen such a large change in the scenery from a single explosive and the only thing that manages to exceed what you did right now is the nuclear bomb that was dropped on Japan a few years ago.

''Well Wiggles...
Looks like I bit off more than I could chew.''

''SQUEE!''
(Master! Allow me to cleanse this blasphemous place! No need for you to exert yourself over such a trivial thing!)

''Well...
I guess it does bug me that this place is intact...
And if it blows up then we won't have to worry about the collision anymore...''

''Okay Wiggles!
I've decided.
Put this place to rest.''

''SQUEE!''
(So it shall be!)

Squeaking once Wiggles leaves the confines of your pocket and scuttles up your chest to your shoulder and up to the top of your hat from there.
He looks up and his eyes begin to glow as he begins to focus.

''SQUEE!''
(Let's see!)

Rolled 9, 10, 9 = 28 (3d10)
Wiggles lets out a smile.

''SQUEE!''
(Ah! That one! That shall do nicely!)

Having said that Wiggles raised his hand in the air and began collecting energy in it much like you did.
Once the tiny ball of black energy is formed he flicks his finger forward and the unassuming black ball slowly starts descending to the ground.
At first you didn't make much of it but the moment it lands you are left speechless.

The black sphere begins to expand and anything it touches gets turned to little more than dust in the wind.
Slowly but surely it keeps encroaching and as it does so it devours all.
In but a few moments you see cracks appearing all over the place and not just in the ground but in the sky and the very air before you.
The entire space that the Blanks have created begins to give in to the increasing pressure and shatters, exposing the infinite abyss of the Garganta behind it.
Once the structural integrity of the realm reaches a critical point the entire Valley simply crumbles like broken glass before you.

You create a tiny platform of reishi right under your feet as you marvel at the creation of your pet.
Wiggles crawls back to his proper place and nestles in your front pocket as you're left speechless.
He doesn't say another word and instead just goes to sleep.

Looking around the place you spot two distortions off in the distance.
Your guess is that those are the Living Realm and Soul Society.
In some sense you're glad that the thing was destroyed because it looks like that Armageddon was right around the corner.
On the other hand you're still very much scared about what you just witnessed.

After Captain Wiggles falls asleep you retreated to the Human World just to see if the kids were successful on their end.
Upon entering the realm you immediately began scanning for Ichigos absurd reiatsu and found him with ease.
You found their choice of place rather odd as both him and Rukia were currently in a graveyard of all places.
As you made your way there things started to get a lot more clear to you.

Ichigo was on his knees and bawling his eyes out while Rukia just watched him with a sorrowful expression.
''DAMN IT!
SHE WAS JUST A GIRL!
SHE SHOULDN'T HAVE DIED LIKE THAT!''
He keeps screaming.

''I'm... sorry Ichigo.''
Rukia goes over to the boy to comfort him.
She reaches under his arm and starts carrying him.
''Come on... let's go home.
The others are probably wondering where we are...''

Not feeling like being an ass you don't say a word to them and instead just nod to Rukia as she walks past you.
Meanwhile Ichigo is so busy crying that he didn't even notice you.
As they leave a familiar sight enters your field of vision.

''Color me impressed.
A hollow that has a heart...''

''What do you want Yoruichi?''
Your voice sounds tired and weak.
''And where the hell were you up until now?''

''Doing cat things.
Believe it or not I have a life just like you...''
She walks closer to you and lays down on top of one of the graves.
''Kisuke told me what was happening.
I assume you are to be thanked for resolving the issue with the Valley.''

You don't even bother responding to her and instead ask the obvious.
''What happened?''

''The Shinenju is sustained by the Valley.
When it blew up she was already dead.
But it's not like she wasn't destined to die from the moment of her creation.
She shouldn't have even existed in the first place...''

''That'll leave a mark on the boy.''

''Don't count on it.
She was an anomaly, something that shouldn't have been born.
In a few hours all memory of her existence will just... fade away.
The boy won't even know why he was crying.''
Noticing your silence Yoruichi gives you a confused look.
''Is something wrong?
You look like you just saw a ghost.
No pun intended.''

You shake your head.
''It's nothing.
Just... I'm tired.That's all.''
Flicking the air you open the Garganta.
''Now... if you'll excuse me, I'd like to go home to my daughter.''

''Daughter?''
Yoruichi smiles.
''Why haven't I heard of that.
Congratulations Kaizar!
May I have the pleasure of meeting her?''

''Perhaps later Yoruichi.
Perhaps later...''
With that you passed through the portal and closed it behind yourself.
>>
AAAAAND I'm tapped out.
I hope you guys enjoyed it

Later I'll update the pastes because it has some much needed changes that I'll have to do.
Other than that it's the usual: Archive's up and I'll return in about a week.

Until then, stay safe everyone

Shame about the girl though, I thought blowing up the Valley might save her or something, but then again what I know about Bleach movies could fill a thimble halfway.

>>
>>1369411
If you observe him closely you'll see that Berry-boy typically has 2 responses to pretty much everything.

If things are going well for him he's an arrogant dick who is way too confident in his protagonist powers.
And when things inevitably go south he breaks down because he doesn't know how to handle it.

His obsession over ''Protecting others'' is really more of a curse than anything.
Because he's still just a kid who can't really handle the fact that people just die sometimes.

>>1370858
Happy Easter you cunt and that sounds about righ. Could we have played our cards and jewed the system so she survived or no?
>>
>>1371011
Eh... maybe.
But that would have required you to not blow up the realm.

Following that you'd have been informed that the realms are still on a collision course and THEN if you found a way to stop that without asking Senna for help (for which you'd have to hit a pretty high DC if you didn't use the Hogyoku)

If you pulled all of that off without a hitch then Senna would have survived
>>
Omake Special:

Kurosaki Household, Ichigos room.

It's been a wild day for the young Kurosaki Ichigo.
After chasing around the girl named Senna for pretty much an entire day he managed to catch up to her and calm her down a bit.
Then he helped her reunite a young boys soul with his father who also happened to be a spirit.
But after the tearful reunion of father and son Senna was gravely injured due to the Valley of Screams blowing up.

Fulfilling the girls last and only request he took the dying Senna to the graveyard where according to her memories her parents were buried.
However when he approached the grave he saw only the name of an old lady who died at the age of 91.
Not having the heart to tell Senna, who has lost her vision by that point, that her memories are indeed incorrect and that she's in fact just an amalgamation of random memories he spared her the pain and instead confirmed that it's her family grave.
Relieved at this news Senna managed to at least die with a smile on her face.

And the cruelest part of the whole story is that Ichigo can't recall any of it.

Now, laying in bed, he keeps staring at the ceiling.
No matter how much he's unable to determine what exactly it is that keeps gnawing on his soul.
He looks to his left and speaks up.

''Rukia...''

''Mmmmmm...''
She groans back.

''Are you asleep?''

She rolls onto her back and sighs.
''No...''
Then she turns her head to the right and looks at the boy.
''Something's wrong.
Isn't it?''

''I can't sleep...''

''Yeah.
Me neither...
It's like... I forgot to do something but I can't figure out why.''

Ichigo doesn't answer.
There is a rather powerful silence in the room for a good few minutes where only the breathing of Kon can be heard.
Then the boy finally speaks up, still looking intently at the ceiling.

''H-hey... Rukia...''

''Hmm?''

''This might sound random but...
I don't want to lose you. Ever.''

That sentence took the shinigami girl by surprise.
As he said, it came out of nowhere and yet it still had quite an impact.
At first she doesn't even know how to respond but then she becomes angry and proceeds to sit up and atop Ichigo.

''Hey!
Don't say such things!''
She raises her voice but it's still barely louder than a whisper in the night.

Ichigo is taken back by Rukias sudden and almost violent response.
''O-okay! Sorry!''
>>

But as he says that Rukias expression changes and she lets out a warm smile.
''Don't worry.
I'll stay by your side, no matter what.''
She then leans in close and steals a kiss from her lover.
As they part she resumes.
''So please, stop making such a face.
I hate seeing you like that.''

The boys face is so red that it's visible even in the dark.
''F-fine...
Just... please, get off of me.
This is so awkward!''

''...
No.''
She says so in a soft tone and Ichigo raises his eyebrows in confusion.

Rukia lets out a coy smile and then carefully lifts up the plush lion next to the bed, paying close attention to it so he doesn't wake up.
Once she has a firm hold on him she places him outside the window without waking him.
Then she locks the window and pulls the curtains together.

As the girl finishes this she starts taking off the top of her pajamas and Ichigo freaks out.
''H-hey! The hell are you doing?!''

Using her mouth Rukia quickly covers up Ichigos and once they part she speaks up again.
''Shhhh.
You don't want to wake the others, do you?''

Omake Special #2: The Unbroken

A door slides open violently, sending the nearby birds that were resting atop the building up until now flying.
The man walks out with a spring to his step, much to the dismay of everyone around him.
From the crowd of onlookers a voice can be heard, almost panicking.

''C-Captain Ukitake!
You shouldn't be here!
Please go back immediately!''

''Kyone...
I've been tied to a bed for centuries.
If I have to spend another day not being able to move around freely I think I'll go insane.''
Captain Ukitake then turns away from his lieutenant and speaks up before using Shunpo to get away.
''See you later.''

Jumping from rooftop to rooftop Jushiro takes in the scenery as he soars through the air.
His excitement grows and he quickly picks up the pace.
By the time he arrives at his destination his lung started to ache, just a little.
Out of breath just a bit he stops atop one of the high walls around the Shin'o Academy.

Feeling a mixture of exhilaration, happiness, pain and exhaustion from overexertion he smothers the sole tear that was squeezed out of his eye.
"Hahaha!"
The pain in his lung is sharp but weak and it fades rather fast.
Before the procedure every action and movement he made had to be calculated, but not anymore.
For the first time since his childhood he feels... free.
He takes a deep breath.
''Did air always taste so good?''

As he looks at the school and the young, aspiring shinigami walking in and out of it he feels a presence slowly creeping up on him.
''I had a feeling you'd show up Shunsui."

"I figured you'd come here.
But can ya' blame me?
Your lieutenant freaked out the moment you left.
Little Kotetsu then cried to Nanao for help who busted my balls until I came to check on you.
Ever heard about that lil' thing called takin' it easy?''

But Ukitake doesn't answer him and instead keeps staring at the crowd.
"Brings back memories, doesn't it?"

Seeing that he won't be able to do a thing about Ukitake he just sighs and walks next to him.
''It sure does.
You were sickly even back then.
But still, you kept giving it your all.
Now lo and behold, you became one of the greatest captains in Soul Societys history despite all that.''
He turns to look at his friend.
''Are you sure you're okay?''

Ukitake nods.
''I haven't felt this alive in a long time.''
But before he could continue he hears faint chirping coming from the trees.
''Whoa! What bird is this?
I've heard it before but I've never seen it.''

''Oh? I forgot, you're usually very sick this time of the year.
But that? It's the Great Spotted Woodpecker.
Wonderful little things, some cultures call them the doctors of the trees as they help keeping the woods healthy by eating the larvae infesting them.''

Ukitake snorts once then bursts out laughing.
''HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAH!''

''W-Was it that funny?''

He wipes away his tears as he answers.
''No, not really.
But it feels good finally being able to laugh to my hearts content.''
>>
''Well, I admit that it feels nice seeing you in such a good mood.''
Kyoraku responds.
''Tell you what, buddy.
Since it's apparent that I won't be able to drag you back to bed AND that you're obviously in good shape, how about we hang out a bit?
Just you, me and the Old Man. I think it's about time we give your recovery the celebration it deserves.''

''Ahhhh that really brings me back.
It's been a while since we did anything like that.
So... why not?''

''That's the spirit!''

With having that decided the two of them proceeded to seek out the Captain Commander and inform him about their intentions.
And while Yamamoto was as busy as always even he found the idea to his liking.
Now the old gang assembled they made their way to one of the Seireiteis greatest taverns called Nirvana.
Upon their entry the Captain Commander raises an eyebrow at how empty the place is.

''I took the liberty of reserving the entire place for just us.
After all, it's better to not have witnesses for what I have in store for us!''
Kyoraku speaks up and they all get seated at the center of the place.

The waitresses then proceed to bring them a variety of different sakes alongside a cup for each of them.
''To a wonderful evening!''
Ukitake raises his cup.

''Forget about that!''
Shunsui interjects.
''To your health! And your bright future!''

''Hmmmm...''
The Captain Commander raises his own cup and hesitates before sending the first drink down the hatch.
Then he pours himself another round.
''Never in my wildest dreams would have I imagined this but...''
He raises his cup.
''To Kaizar Soize. The first hollow to whom the Seireitei is indebted to.''

''Haha!
I'll drink to that.''
Ukitake joins him and so does Shunsui but without a word.

Feeling the slight sting of the sake vapor in his mouth as he breathes in Ukitake grabs hold of the entire jug before him.
''Hey Shunsui!
I bet I can chug longer than you do!''
>>
Kyoraku blinks a few times before reluctantly grabbing hold of a bottle himself.
''Bloody hell, if I knew I'd be signing up for this...''
Then he starts drinking and his buddy follows suit.
About halfway to the end he can't take it anymore and he stops as he starts to crave air.

Ukitake actually finishes his jug completely and sets it aside.
To which his friend responds in shock.
''Damn Ukitake...
I thought since I'm treating the two of you, you'd be a bit more gentle.''

''Hah! Sorry about that.
But years of practice made me really good at holding my breath.''

''Hoho...
Seeing you like this... it really takes me back to a more simple time.
Please remind me of thanking that hollow the next time he comes.''

''Will do Yama-jii but...
Don't think that we'll let you off easy.''
Kyoraku hands the Captain Commander a full bottle.
''It's your turn.''

The three of them ended up drinking well into the night and reminiscing about the past along the way and all of them managed to get more inebriated than ever before.
They only stopped drinking after a while because the owner of the tavern wanted to close up shop around 4 am.
After shambling back home all of them slept well into the afternoon and woke up with the mother of all hangovers.

Kyoraku, for the first time in a while, had a good excuse for not working but in that pained state of his he wished that he could work instead.
The Head Captain felt his old age catching up with him as every joint, muscle and bone in his body screamed with pain.
This one night of debauchery managed to inflict more damage onto him than anything or anyone in the past 1000 year.

And Ukitake?
He rather enjoyed the headache as it reminded him of the fact that he can finally do as he pleases without having to worry about his illness.
The pain that he felt was nothing compared to his old ones and at the very least... he felt this pain because he chose to, not because he was destined to.

Keep throwing ideas at me and I'll try my hardest to incorporate them.

Omake with Milla Rose finally having enough and taking action on getting fully intimate with Yata by barricading the both of them in the lab.

You can even have Hao being hidden and at a crucial moment trips up Yata to fulfill Mills's "wish", which end up him being captured and dragged into an adjoining room, with Yata calling him a traitor and threatening with all kinds of insults or what he's going to do to him before the door shuts.

And you'll see why
