Reborn: This better be my debut...

Wing: Well...

Reborn: You hesitated. (cocks gun)

Wing: Meep!

Rukia: You're lucky we still need you to write.

Ichigo: You're all insane...Greywing44 doesn't own any of us.

Rukia: Small miracles...small miracles.


"It's...a-a-after us?" Tsuna stuttered before yelping as Ichigo dragged them out of the way when the fish like hollow struck down at them.

"It's back! Get out of here right now!" Rukia called as the hollow jumped back cautiously when she got in the way. Her sword drawn and ready to face the monster as it growled at her.

"NO!" Ichigo roared before clenching his fists, his body trembling as Tsuna held Karin in her arms. "So those vicious attacks on that poor girl...were because of me?!"

"That's one way to look at it." Rukia stated before continuing when he opened his mouth. "But as I said, they're after you both. This hollow wouldn't have attacked that desperately if you were alone."

"W-w-what do you mean?" Tsuna stuttered in fear before Rukia looked back at them, specifically at her.

"You...there's a power dwelling inside you unlike any that I've seen, even more powerful then your friend Ichigo's." Rukia stated simply before fixating her gaze back onto the hollow who had yet to make a move. It's rather remarkable how much hidden spirit energy I'm sensing inside her. But it's all bottled up. Unused. The only way anyone would know it's even there is by sensing the trace amounts she left on that girl's spirit and everyone she's been in contact with.

"B-but tha...that can't be..." Tsuna mumbled as she was shivering in fear. "I-I'm No-good Tsuna...u-useless. W-why would a h-hollow be after m-me?" Her lips trembled as tears started to spring into her eyes. "I-ichi...Y-yuzu...K-karin...Th-they'll...because of me?"

Ichigo looked down at this before gritting his teeth in anger and rage before he rushed headlong in front of the fish like monster and spread his arms out wide. "Come at me you ugly bastard! I'm the one you want, not them!"

"I-Ichigo! No!" Tsuna stood up but she was frozen at the sight of the monster. N-no! Not now! Move! P-please move!

"If you want my soul then come on and fight me coward!" Ichigo continued as he thumbed to himself. "Come on!" I won't let you hurt anyone else! If I have to die, so be it!

Everything flashed before their eyes in the next few moments, the hollow rushing at him, Tsuna still being rooted to the spot. Their memories of each other...And then everything returned to regular motion as Ichigo realized the blood that spattered on the ground was not in fact his. It was from the black garbed death god herself, the hollow was biting into her shoulder but couldn't consume her because her sword was in the way. Which she then used to slice off a tooth from it's mask, making it scream out in pain as it reared back to clutch it's wound. Too engrossed by it's pain to even notice the soul reaper fall to the ground with her sword barely held within her grip, her shoulder likely crushed from the strength of it's teeth.

"Y...you...are a fool..." Rukia coughed out with the blood loss making the world spin though her eyes. "How...could you possibly have thought...you'd be any match for a hollow...!?" She gritted her teeth in agony as she forced her bleeding body to get up, slowly, painfully. "Did you really think everything would be over if you gave him your soul!? One soul doesn't satisfy them for long, he won't be able to resist going after your friend after he eats you! If you don't stop interfering we're all going to end up as it's food!"

M...move...Move...! Tsuna thought with sweat pouring down her face. Her legs shaking as the monster pulled its hands from its face to glare at them and the wounded Soul Reaper, of whom was crawling towards a light post.

"I'm too injured to fight...do you...want to save your family...?" Rukia grunted as she sat up against the metal post.

"Of course I do! If there's a way then tell me how!" Ichigo demanded.

M..move! It's getting closer...! Ichigo! Tsuna's mouth moved but no words were coming out due to the immense fear she was feeling. The monster slowly moving past her towards the two.

"It will only be temporary..." Rukia stressed as she grabbed the handle of her katana with one hand. "But you must become...a soul reaper yourself! You must take my zanpakuto and run it through the center of your being! So that I may pour my power into you!"

Move...move...move...! Tsuna took a shaky step forward as the monster didn't care for the conversation as he was mere minutes away and closing in.

"I can't guarantee that you will live, but if it doesn't work it won't matter." Rukia continued, Ichigo only smirked at the odds.

"Then give me that blade, Soul Reaper."

"My name is Rukia, Rukia Kuchiki."

The monster roared as it charged full on as the two had their moment, it's large hand reaching towards them in order to crush the two before they finished the ritual.

NO! "Ichigo!" Tsuna finally screamed out as she ran full tilt at the two. I don't...want to be Dame-Tsuna! Not here!


Elsewhere


"Then fight." A small, shadowed figure said as they looked though a scope on a high powered sniper rifle. The cross-hairs centered on the middle of Tsuna's head. "Fight with your dying will, Tsunayoshi Sawada." His finger then squeezed the trigger without hesitation or error. The bullet shooting towards the unwitting girl's head...

"Be reborn!"


Back at the Scene


A bullet came out of nowhere and hit the brown haired girl square in the forehead. At that time I felt regret...She thought as she fell to the ground. Not because I was a loser, I could live with that...I just regret this...if I had the willpower...I could protect Ichigo...like he protects me...

She then fell to the ground with a thud, all light leaving her eyes...but her skin gained a strange glow. And suddenly life returned to her eyes as she gritted her teeth, orange fire exploding from the middle of her forehead in a passionate blaze. She sprang to her feet before disappearing...

A blue light exploded seconds later from Ichigo, leaving him in clothes that were like the ones Rukia had on earlier before the transfer. The only difference was his sword was as long as his body and twice as thick as Rukia's zanpakuto, and had a blue tassel at the end. Rukia herself was left in a plain white kimono stained with her own blood. But their eyes were not on the hollow, but on the girl who held the hollow's fist back with nothing but her bare hands.

Tsuna roared, her clothes tearing off her body, leaving her in a plain white bra and panties as she held back the hollow's strike. "REBORN! I'll protect Ichigo with my dying will!"

"W-w-w-what the hell happened to your clothes!?" Ichigo shouted. His whole face turning as red as a tomato as he covered his eyes with one hand, the other drawing his large sword. "Put some on! Put some on god damnnit!"

"UOHHH!" Tsuna ignored his pleading as she pushed back the hollow step by step. Ichigo finally sprang into action as the hollow made to strike at her with it's free hand, he jumped and sliced off the arm at the middle of it's bicep. Making it scream and stumble back in pain. Tsuna giving it's fist a good shove so it landed on it's ass, a good sized crater was under her feet.

"I...only meant to give him half of my power, but somehow he's taken nearly all of it!" Rukia mumbled to herself as she watched the two beings, she herself not fazed by the stripping since she herself was a woman...and she's seen worse...What kind of beings are they!? That girl took on the full force of that hollow without even flinching, without even a weapon or a zanpakuto! I've never heard of a human possessing this kind of strength, let alone two! And I've certainly never heard of a Soul Reaper wielding a zanpakuto that large!

"I'll beat you! I'll protect Ichigo!" Tsuna roared as she grabbed the hollow around the leg, her feet digging grooves in the ground as the hollow tried to shake her off.

"Gah! Fuck it, I'll worry about her later!" Ichigo roared as his face was still obscenely red, trying desperately to ignore Tsuna's state of undress in the face of a larger threat. "You'll pay for even thinking of hurting my family you hollow son of a bitch! So taste the wrath of my blade!" He roared out as Tsuna kept him still just long enough for him to slice clean through the monster from the tip of his mask to the end of it's torso. The hollow evaporated in a swirl of smoke and white dust as the two were frozen in their battle states...


Next Day


After smacking his father just before he got drop kicked in his sleep...Ichigo stared at the hole in his house that opened up the kitchen in a way that was not meant to be any day of the week. Apparently the other three members of the Kurosaki household thought that a truck smashed into their house during the night instead of a blood thirsty monster bent on eating their souls. Their injuries are gone too, was this all because of that soul reaper?

"Ichigo, you better hurry up and eat breakfast or your gonna be late!" The cheerful Yuzu called as she had on her apron and signature ladle before walking in with Karin. "And make sure you wake up Tsu-nee so she isn't late either!"

At the mention of the girl his whole face went red and steamed a bit, the memory of the usually timid girl...in her underwear came to his mind. "Y-Yeah..." Ichigo muttered back as he dug his knuckles into either side of his head so he would focus on the pain instead of...that...Speaking of which...What the hell was up with Tsuna last night anyway!? She took those punches like it was nothing! Did that soul reaper, shinigami...whatever she was, do something to her!? The thought worried him even as the stubborn blush on his face refused to go away.

I wonder...did she go back to that soul society place?


Elsewhere


On the top of a nearby roof, a small being looked through green binoculars that had...yellow eyes set in the side of them. The person focused in on the orange haired teen as he went into his neighbor's house to wake up his sleeping in friend. "Ichigo Kurosaki eh...?" The being grinned as he lowered his binoculars. "This could be fun after all."


Wing:...Ehhh...

Reborn: That better not be it, or I'll be veryyy unhappy. You won't like me when I'm unhappy.

Wing: C-Calm down! There's more next chapter! I swear!

Reborn: There better be. And readers...you all better review. Unless if you want to spend the rest of your lives looking over your shoulder, waiting till the next release...

Wing: I-ignore him!
