I think it's about time I got over my writers block and got back to the insanity that is happening in their story, sorry for the wait guys.

Chapter 11, Beginning the invasion

Night had fallen in Karakura town, and all the students had returned to their homes. Uryu was already enthusiastically working on a new project. Rex and Lisa, meanwhile, were setting up futons on the floors and getting ready to go to bed.

"Say," Ichigo began, "how long do you think you will be staying?"

"I honestly have no idea," Rex replied with a shrug, "The only one who could possibly get us out of here is Misa, and I really don't know how long it will take her to research the right spell."

"Right spell," Ichigo asked, raising an eyebrow."

"Yeah. That nut is a dabbler in magic, not that she is very good at it. But honestly, I really don't know if I want to go back home."

"Why not? Don't you have family?" the blond youth inquired.

Rex paused. "Have you ever read a story and wished you could be in the middle of the action before? Well, that's how I feel right now. I understand that it's dangerous, with the hollows and all, but I feel it's better than the life I had back home."

"Why's that?"

"Well, in this world we have powers," Rex said, tapping his legs, "And I get to meet the characters I really admire. Sure I miss my family sometimes, but I lived in the school dorms to begin with, since my family moved around a lot. So to me, it's really not that different."

Meanwhile, in the girls room…

"What was your school like?" Rukia asked.

"Well," Lisa began, "It was a little famous for having an anime club so big that different divisions existed within it."

"Oh? Is that special?" the shinigami inquired.

"It was rare," Lisa admitted, "And we got to meet a lot of people who had similar interests, and fellow artists."

"Artists?"

"Oh yeah," Lisa nodded, reaching over to her backpack and pulling out a folder, "Art was a big deal in our school. Look, here are some of the works that I've collected." She opened up the folder, showing a picture of a sleeping Ichigo.

Rukia stared at the art. "Do you draw?" she asked.

"A little," Lisa admitted, and then jumped back as Rukia got in her face.

"Can you teach me how to improve my art?"

"Eh…I'm not the best person to ask. And I'm getting a little tired. Can we talk about this tomorrow?" Rukia nodded enthusiastically, and Lisa exhaled in relief. "Alright. Kon, come here sweetie!" the hazel eyed girl called, "It's time for bed." The perverted lion was there in seconds, already hugging tightly to Lisa's 'pillows'.

"You are a goddess nee-san," the plushie said.

In Soul Society, 10th squad barracks…

"I can't believe I let her join," Toshiro grumbled as he did paperwork. He had grudgingly let Su join his squad, and the purple-haired girl was running around doing errands for the youngest captain of the protective squads.

"Here are the papers you asked for Taicho," Su said, stacking some forms on the desk. She had been given a shinigami uniform to wear so that she would not stick out like a sore thumb.

"Where the hell is Masumoto?" the icy youth growled as he glanced over to the vacant seat that should have been occupied.

"Shall I find her for you?" the green-eyed girl asked.

Toshiro sighed, "Yes, please do."

"Hai!" the girl squealed, skipping towards the door, but bounced off of something soft as she tried to exit. It happened to be Masumoto's boobs as the chesty vice captain entered the office.

"Oh, sorry Su-Chan didn't see you," the woman said, then turned to her captain. "I just got an announcement from the top."

"Does that account for you skipping your paperwork?" her captain asked, glaring at the slacker.

"This time it does," Masumoto answered, "It seems that in light of the recent events, Yamamoto Sotaicho has deemed it necessary to send some shinigami to Karakura town as a preliminary safety measure."

"And he wants us to select people from our squad?" the white haired boy inquired.

"No. He wants the two of us to go as representatives of our squad." The chesty woman replied.

"WHAT?!" Toshiro bellowed, "I already have enough work as it is, we can't go now!"

"Those are the orders we got," Masumoto sighed, but then her face brightened up, "But that means I can finally try those juice boxes that Rukia was talking about for myself."

"Why you…" Toshiro began, but then noticed a certain purple haired girl looking up at him with puppy-dog eyes from the floor right next to him. "What?"

"TAKE ME WITH YOU!" the girl begged, grabbing onto the captain's leg.

"GYAHHHHHHHH!"

At the same time, in the 13th squad barracks…

"A mission to the real world?" Ikkaku said, raising an eyebrow.

"Apparently they want a group there in order to fend off any kind of early attacks," Yumichika explained.

"Alright!" Ikkaku said triumphantly, "I've been dying to get some kind of action." That is when he felt a tug on his leg. He looked down, and immediately noticed the body of Jason holding onto his uniform. Like Su, the youth had been given a shinigami uniform.

"Take…me…with…you." The boy coughed.

"Why should I?" the bald shinigami asked, giving the boy a questioning look.

Jason slowly climbed up the 3rd seat's uniform, "I will do ANYTHING to get away from that pink ball of sugar we call Yachiro-fukutaicho."

"Having a rough time playing with her?" Ikkaku snickered.

Jason stumbled to his feet and dusted off his uniform, "To the point where I cannot train at all. And I would like to be around a professional warrior who is an expert at ling-hafted weapons."

"Ah, I see," the bald man said thoughtfully, "I must admit: I admire your courage. You seem to have some guts of you think you can just ask me to train you."

"Who else can I ask? Zaraki-taicho is too powerful, and I don't think he knows the word 'restraint', and no one else seems to have skill comparable to you."

"Hah, flattery will get you nowhere."

"And I think you might need a guide when it comes to human-world items," Jason added.

Ikkaku paused. He looked at Yumichika. He looked back at Jason. He looked back at Yumichika. The pretty-boy shinigami shrugged. "He's got a point."

That's all for now. Soon you shall find out what happens in Karakura town.
