AN: I have one other story pending, and for those who put it on alerts, don't worry, this does not mean that I won't update my other story. As it stands, this one is a crossover with the Bleach and Harry Potter Universe. I hope you enjoy.
Warnings: AU, Gender-swap (features a Female Ichigo), violence, Ginny-bashing for sure….that's all for now.
Disclaimer: Tite Kubo owns Bleach and J.K. Rowling owns Harry Potter. Honestly, if I owned Harry Potter, Ginny would be burning in the deepest pits of hell, and if I owned Bleach, Ichigo's final hollow form would be seen a lot more often…
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW: The winter war is still going on as Aizen retreated from Karakura Town when the spirit-enriched land changed location. Ichigo (who is female), returned to Karakura Town with Nel in tow. Her peace lasted until she was killed when pushing her sisters out of the way of a drunk driver. Because she was a soul reaper before, she kept all her memories and was instantly made the captain of the fifth division. She was sent on a scouting mission to Hueco Mundo when she was captured and tortured for a year before she was able to escape. As she is the perfect merger between hollow and soul reaper, she was able to open a garganta. As far as the Potter-verse is concerned, this occurs during fifth year, before the trial, but after he is taken to Grimmauld place. The Wizarding government has a passing knowledge of soul reapers. They don't like them, but they respect the fact that the seretei could wipe them out if need be. With that said….onto the story.
Chapter One: Holy Shite! Did that girl just fall through a hole in the sky?
It was the day of the hearing and Harry was nervous, no matter what Hermione said he knew there was a possibility he could get expelled. And just what did he do that was heinous enough to warrant such treatment? Well he saved his good for nothing cousin's life, that's what. "Stupid gits, if they would pull there heads out of there arses we wouldn't be in this predicament anyway", the surly teen muttered to himself angrily. "You know, talking to yourself is the first sign of insanity right?" "So what's the second then." "Answering yourself", replied the second occupant of the room. "Well I'm not too far gone than", Harry replied amusedly. The second man chuckled a bit. "So, Sirius, do you know how I'm getting to the hearing?" This sobered up the second occupant, no revealed to be none other than Sirius Black, considerably. "I know for sure that I am going with you no matter what Molly says", he replied, his tone emphasizing the finality of his statement. Harry knew better than to argue with his godfather when he got like this and decided to simply retreat to his rooms to get ready.
It turned out that the plan wasn't that elaborate at all. Harry and Sirius (under the guise of Snuffles of course) would tale the night bus as close to the entrance to the ministry of magic as possible, than walk the rest of the way. It was also agreed upon that Arthur's office would serve as the perfect place to wait until the hearing actually started. It is at this point that we find a slightly green Harry and an unsteady black dog trudging through downtown London in search of a particular phone booth. "Of course they send me with someone who hasn't been to the ministry in years, let alone know where it is", grumbled Harry under his breath. Unfortunately for him, Sirius' animagus allotted him keen hearing, and he got a swift nip to his behind in response. He was just about to retaliate when the sky itself seemed to split at some unknown seam, and drop a bloody yet vibrant haired girl behind. The only thing that he could think to say was, "Holy shite! Did that girl just fall from a hole in the sky?"
After a few seconds of panic, he managed to pull himself together long enough to rush to her side. Alas Padfoot was not so lucky in that he was still standing there gaping like an idiot. The first thing he noticed about her was that she looked like she had been run through with a sword, and closely resembled Voldemort's latest torture victim. He reached to check her pulse, covering himself with blood in the process. It was this sight that shocked his godfather into action. He quickly changed back into a human, and rushed to his godson's side and began to apply the meager amount of first aide that he had learned as an auror. "Will she be all right?", Harry quietly asked. Harry was unnaturally pale, the idea that someone else may die in front of him brought back unwelcome images of the night Cedric died, Sirius noted how upset Harry was and reassured him that as long as they got the girl to Poppy within the hour, than there was no reason she wouldn't survive.
They both reached down to prop the girl between them for transport when they suddenly found themselves surrounded by Aurors, a smug Fudge, and what looked disturbingly like the love child of a Toad and his Uncle Vernon. Harry immediately took a defensive stance in front of Sirius and the stirring girl. "Well, well, well, well, what do we have hear, Mr. Potter, as you have missed your court hearing you are hereby expelled from Hogwarts school of witchcraft and Wizardry, your wand is to be promptly snapped", Fudge sneered. Then the toad-like woman leaned towards the minister and whispered something in his ear, whereupon his face turned a disturbing puce. "Seize him! Seize Sirius Black right now!" As the Aurors moved forward, Harry's grip on his wand tightened. He understood he was outnumbered, and outclassed as far as spell knowledge was concerned, however he vowed that the only way they were going to get to Sirius would be over his corpse. "Stop now", a soft yet commanding voice replied. "I place these two men under my protection as the fifth division captain of the thirteen court guard squads." Harry looked around for the source of the voice only to realize that it was the girl they had been saving. He watched as she unsteadily drew herself to her full height, and set a cold gaze upon the minister. The Aurors, who had stopped for a moment, then began advancing. Kingsley, however, remained behind. Suddenly an incredible pressure filled the air and pushed everyone but Harry to the ground. The girl shot him a quizzical look before preceeding. "I said that these two people are under my protection, are you deaf or a dumbass" The minister turned red with anger and was about to fling an insult right back when Kingsley interrupted. "Minister, I think you should heed her warning. I have met a few soul reapers, including captains. They were able to defeat fully trained Aurors without breaking a sweat, and those people have nothing on her…I have the feeling that she could wipe out the ministry with a sweep of her hand." Fudge paled and forced out "fine, but they are not to leave your sight, got it?" and abruptly turned on his heel and left. The girl than turned to her saviors and said "Hello, I'm Ichigo Kurosaki…nice to meet you", whereupon Sirius promptly fainted.
