Hey everyone this is my first fanfic ever so I hope you like.

NO I don't own Bleach or Harry Potter

The sun shone through the window and illuminated the office of Ichigo Kurosaki, captain of the Eighth Division of the Gotei 13. At the moment his desk was filled with piles of paperwork, as was common for a captain's desk. Ichigo had an expression of exasperation on his face as he finished filling in a report and moved on to the next one.

He mumbled some incoherent sentence in annoyance while he was filling in a report on "Expected hollow decrease in division assigned region" when there was a silent knock on his door before a head popped through it. Tatsufusa Enjōji, the 3rd seat of the Eight Division, spoke "Captain there has been a messenger from the Captain- Commander, he requests your presence in the First Division barracks at this instant.". Ichigo perked up, 'well anything is better than this' he thought' 'Indeed King, we been cooped in here for way too long, maybe that lazy bastard has something interesting for us' his Zanpakutō spirit said in his head and though he remained quiet Ichigo could feel the old Quincy spirit agreeing.

Nodding to his 3rd seat as he left the office, Ichigo stood up and in a burst of Shunpo set to the First Division barracks.

'Lets hope he doesn't just want us to drink sake with him' this wouldn't be the first time that Shunsui had called Ichigo to him just to have a drinking buddy.

'He nothing against sake King, if you weren't such a pussy and a kill joy you might actually enjoy it' Zangetsu said.

'Even I can enjoy a good drink once in a while Ichigo, you might too, clears the mind' Ichigo's Quincy spirit voice echoed through his mind.

The young captain sniffed distastefully 'Why do you two always try to encourage me to drink, even you old man I thought you'd be happy that I am responsible and all that stuff that you used to rattle about'.Ichigo thought as he arrived at the First Division barracks.

Every time Ichigo entered unto the grounds of the First Division, Ichigo could not help but think about the late Captain- Commander. Although he and Yamamoto never had been close or even friends, Ichigo still respected the old captain who had held such a mighty presence. As he was walking down the hall Ichigo spotted Nanao, the Lieutenant of the First Division. She was talking to a couple of her subordinates when he spotted her "Hey Nanao, how is it going" ichigo said in greeting.

"I am fine captain Kurosaki, you may proceed inside" Nanao motioned to the door "he is waiting on you". Though they were friendly with each other Ichigo and Nanao weren't close,

still they respected each other for their skill and efforts during past conflicts.

Nodding to the woman Ichigo strode up the door and after quickly knocking he entered the office of the Captain- Commander.

"Ah, there you are Ichigo, come in, come in" Shunsui said jovially, he was sitting on the window sill looking on unto the Seireitei. During the Quincy war Ichigo had developed a great deal of respect for the Captain- Commander, even though he had somewhat a lazy attitude for a man in his position.

To be honest Ichigo half expected him to be drinking sake right now, 'Wow King, there might actually be something serious' the hollow Zanpakutō spirit said in a dry sarcastic tone.

"Well I am here now, so what seems to be the problem Shunsui" Shunsui Kyōraku has always insisted that his close friends and colleges call him by his real name without any honorifics els it was awkward, or so he claimed.

The head captain signed before saying "What do you know about wizards Ichigo?".

Ichigo frowned, wizards like those in stories, what was he talking about? "I am not sure what you mean" Ichigo said before quickly adding "This is serious right, you did not just call me here for a social visit?".

Shunsui looked straight at Ichigo, "Why don't you take a seat?", as Ichigo sat he continued, "As you know there are certain humans that can sense Reiatsu, not unlike Quincies or Fullbringers but unlike them they have much smaller amounts of Reiryoku.". Ichigo immediately thought of his old school friends, Shunsui saw this on Ichigo's face and continued "Yes not unlike your old friends, hmmm perhaps they could have been wizards too.". The young captain thought about this, he doubted that they would be able to do anything with the amount of Reiryoku they have.

"Ok so what does this have to do with me?", Ichigo asked irritably.

Shunsui smiled, "I was getting there, now these people around the world gathered together and began calling themselves wizards, and there are quite a few of them."

Ichigo frowned, "If there are so many of them then why have I never encountered one before?".

"Well, that's because they live in isolation from the other humans, they hide themselves from them" Shunsui answered.

Well that made sense, other people might become scarred of these Wizards and try something stupid, heck there probably would be a war if people ever found out that such people existed in masses. Shunsui continued "Now as these wizards don't have much Reiryoku they can't really pack a lot of power behind the techniques that they use, to compensate for this they had to become quite creative with them.".

"Backup, these Wizards do they know about us, the Shinigami or Soul Society in general?" Ichigo asked.

"No, atleast not everyone of them, probably none of them know about us." The older captain continued, "We actually had something to do with that, you see a couple millennia ago some of us saw the security risks in having a lot of these Wizards around, we just couldn't have them find out about us now could we. What if they tried to open a portal to Soul Society or something and then end up in Hueco Mundo. So we devised a clever plan, some plus souls would be allowed to stay on earth and in exchange feed false information back about the afterlife and the reincarnation cycle to these wizards."

"And this has worked for millennia without slipup?" Ichigo asked speculatively.

"Well there could have been a slip up here or there but as I don't see these wizards popping in and out of Soul Society all the time I say it worked well enough" Shunsui said with a smile. "Now let me continue, as I said they don't have a lot of power but they are supposedly creative and it is here that our problem begins". Shunsui looked at Ichigo, " One of them figured out a way to split his soul and thus became rooted to the human world, he is in a sense immortal".

Split his soul, Ichigo thought, a soul like that would be unaccepted by the reincarnation cycle "Is this technique widespread knowledge among them." Ichigo asked worriedly.

Shunsui shook his head, "No, at least we don't think so". Good a technique like that could not become widely known or else the reincarnation cycle could become unstable.

Ichigo could see where this is going, "Ok let me guess then, you want me to organize a search party for this guy, why not explain this during a captain's meeting so all divisions could cooperate on this?". That made sense, it would be most efficient if all divisions could help search for this guy, the Gotei 13 did operate in every corner of the world after all.

"What, search party no, I want you to infiltrate these Wizards, you mision would be to learn more about their society, find they guy who split his soul, anulate him and make sure that all traces of that technique become buried".

What him, why not some other lower ranking Shinigami, he had a division to run for goodness sake and wait "Shunsui when exactly did this happen, I mean the soul splitting thing.".

Shunsui face gained an embarrassed look "Oh more than twenty years ago at least".

"Twenty years! And your telling me this just now, why did you not deal with this sooner?" Ichigo exclaimed.

The older captain smiled shyly, "Well at the time we didn't really see the harm in it and we kinda ignored it for a while.". "And then Aizen happened and the Quincy war and we forgot about it.".

Ichigo sighed, "And in typical Gotei 13 style you want me to clean up your mess, got it. Now this does still not explain why you want me specifically".

"Well all we really know is that there is a guy who split his soul, no name no nothing well we know that it was somewhere in Britain", Shunsui smiled at Ichigo, "And as you're division is responsible for Europe this task naturally goes to you."

Still why him, why not one of his subordinates, "Why me specifically?".

Shunsui stood up from the window sill and walked over to Ichigo, " Well because I want someone capable for this and Ichigo." Shunsui said the last part in a slightly different tone, "This will be a long term mission, it could take a couple of years even.".

A couple of year, what about his captain duties, "Why so long?".

"Well because we don't know anything about these wizards, heck we don't even know where to begin, well I suppose you could begin by finding out more about their techniques and society." , , , the last part was said suggestively. "And to answer the question why you, it is because you still need to go on a long term assignment and I feel like this makes for a great opportunity."

Long term assignment, didn't he prove himself already with Aizen and the quincies. Shunsui saw this train of thought on Ichigo's face and quickly added, "It is not that you haven't proven yourself it is that all Shinigami must go through this and you still haven't.".

Ichigo sighed "Very well, give me a week or so and I'll be ready to go".

Shunsui clapped his hands "Wonderfull, I knew we could count on you Ichigo".

As Ichigo was leaving the first division he thought about his new mission 'I probably should ask for help with Kisuke and Yoruichi.', 'You should ask Yoruichi to gather information for us, she is good at that.' The old quincy spirit said in Ichigo's mind. 'And if Kisuke comes at least we will have someone to beat up.', Zangetsu added. Ichigo sighed, yeah information is what they needed he still knew next to nothing about these wizards and yes Yoruichi was great for gathering information. Ichigo could probably order all of his subordinates who were stationed in Europe at the moment to keep an eye open on these wizards.

Yeah well either way, Ichigo had a feeling this would become interesting.

So did you like, let me know.
