Chapter 13 - The Clash (1)

"Damn you Tennyson! Come on, get serious!"

Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez the spikey blue haired muscular man slashed his blade and black clawed hand with wild disregard, his opponent blocked each attack with a large single claws that jutted out from his wrist.

"The name's not Tennyson, the name's Rath!" The tiger man dressed in a black and white wrestler shirt shouted at the sixth espada. Rath repelled the espada's attacks away, which left him open for a shoulder tackle by the large alien .

The duo fought in the outskirts of the sixth espada's territory, yesterday Ben and the girls returned to the castle, this morning the blue haired man came to the first espada's castle to collect the alien shape-shifter for a sparring session.

Apparently he and the others sensed that the girls and Harribel got stronger and now Grimmjow wanted to use the green eyed young man as a partner to become stronger.

Rath's tackle planted the espada into the ground leaving a wide crater in his wake . The alien jumped back to create distance between him and his enemy, Grimmjow leaped to his feet again. The espada used Sonido to get behind the tiger and fired a cero to place where he assumed the alien's kidney. The explosion caused the alien to be fired meters away from his original position and a dust cloud to emerge at his landing site.

"Here I come!" The muscular man planted a hand into the sand and propelled himself forward to his opponent's location.

"Don't count your before they hatch!" A gust of wind passed Grimmjow not from his own act of superhuman speed, instead it was from a tiger man who appeared behind him with both hands clasped and raised to the sky. And like the hammer of a master smith they came down on the steel like skull of the arrancar, the blue haired man was dazed however his foe did not give him the opportunity to get his barring's. 

The arrancar felt his ankle grabbed as if it was put into a vice by the massive strong hand of the alien, then he felt himself be lifted into the air and then flung into the sand with terrifying force.

"LYRA BASH!" The alien repeatedly lifted and slammed the arrancar into the sand until he threw him away, and dashed towards him at ludicrous speed.

'He got faster!' The arrancar noted the change his foe underwent, 'His speed rose after I hit him with my cero, that's how slipped behind me. Alright tiger man let's who's claws are sharper!' The espada of destruction abandoned his zanpakuto and then flew towards the alien and readied his now Hierro clad claws. The two clashed and a shockwave rang out as dust flew into every direction, the sound of grinding metal was heard as the two combatants clashed each strike the espada landed made his foe angrier.

As foe's rage rose so did his speed, however the tiger man ran into a problem that being the fact that he could barely injure his opponent the arrancar's defense's were higher than the damage he could out put. However, neither heard the logic part of their brains which told them to retreat and figure out a new solution, they kept up the fight, no skill, no counters only a flurry of claws filled with the desire of their owners to see their opponent defeated on the ground.

...

Ichigo Kurasaki wished he could have had a normal day for once, normal in the sense that he could return home, enter his room and not see a bunch of strangers inside!

In his room was Mayuri, the captain of squad twelve with his lieutenant and three other people—he guessed.

One of them was a guy older than him by a few years who had black hair and horns on his head he dressed in a sort of biker lone wolf sense.

The other guy seemed to be covered in blue white and black fur and nearly touched his room's ceiling due to how tall he was. He wore what seemed to be an advanced suit of armor he usually saw in an overseas comic.

Lastly was the girl with the same orange hair as him that fact would have been a slightly better surprise, however the girl floated above his bed her hands emitted a strange blue energy in between her hands a compass floated the needle spun with insane speed. She dressed like a studious university student, her look had an overall purple theme. 

The checker board colored captain noticed his presence as he turned to him.

"Ah, Ichigo Kurasaki, you have arrived at the perfect place, close the door." Ichigo closed the door and locked it before he yelled with all the anger he could muster. 

"Who the hell are these people!" Ichigo's face became beat red as all the eyes in the room were on him.

"Huh, well that rude don't you think Rook?" The biker looking guy asked the very tall man, who nodded his head.

"A group of strangers just broke into my room with a mad scientist. I have the right to be rude!" The substitute shinigami pointed at each person inside the room.

"Mister Levin was quite correct, you seem to be very rude pointing and name calling. I thought you were above that Kurasaki." Mayuri crossed his arms like a disappointed parent, which caused the young man to slowly take his combat pass out of his pocket. 

A tendril made from blue transparent energy grabbed his attention which caused the young Kurasaki to look at the woman with the auburn hair.

"Don't mind they're idiots and sorry for dropping in here unannounced, we just have some important business we have to take care of. Oh, the name's Gwendolyn by the way or just Gwen that's Rook and Kevin." The woman introduced in a friendly manner while the teenage boy nodded.

"My name's Ichigo. I'm pretty sure Frankenstein over there told you that already, and sorry if I seem rude, but how does your business relate to me?" The main concern that loomed over the substitute shinigami's head was the return of Aizen, as much as he wanted to avoid it he could not. Aizen during their last clash spoke of standing above even the gods and someone with that admission rarely had good intentions.

"We have the location of Aizen's base and we plan to strike it preemptively to spare any casualties from occurring on our side." Mayuri told Ichigo who seemed a bit shocked, but then asked the obvious question.

"Okay, that explains you, but what about these guys?" Ichigo jabbed a thumb towards Kevin who's face screwed before brightening up.

"We are here, because someone we know might have been kidnapped by this Aizen guy." Kevin told him.

"Ok, that basically all my questions are Rukia and Renji standing by somewhere near or—" The young Kurasaki was interrupted as he felt a large spiritual pressure from nearby. He used his combat pass to turn into his shinigami form and left through the window without a second thought.

"He seemed to be quite nice." Rook said to a skeptic Kevin as he jumped out the window and then reached into shirt for his key chain lock, then a handful of scales escaped the lock. He grabbed hold of the scales and then absorbed the Necrofriggian DNA into himself to gain a set of wings and the ability to turn invisible he flew off into the same direction as Ichigo.

Rook followed behind as helmet manifested onto his head it followed his suits color scheme except for the orange visor, from his boots jets manifested and he flew out of the room then became invisible thanks to his cloaking technology.

 "Before you ask I will not accompany you Tennyson I must go and inform the Gotei about this latest development. It appears we will have to change our plan of attack." Mayuri told Gwen as he and Nemu made their way out of the room, Gwen simply nodded and then left a disk made of blue energy. The four people were now all in pursuit of the large spiritual energy that made itself known.

Orihime Inoue and Yasutora Sado sensed the spiritual pressure the both of them sensed it and then rushed towards its source they both had one thought on their minds.

'Ichigo.'
