Note- At the end of each chapter I will put background information on some historical figures and or sites(in Warriors Orochi) in this story. Example: Hu Lao Gate.

Disclaimer- I do not own bleach and nor Warrior Orochi series.

Before the death of Orochi and the final battle of Koshi Castle; he combined two other worlds with the Three Kingdoms Era (Ancient China) and the Sengoku Era (Japan late 1500s). These were the realms of Soul Society and Hueco Mundo.

Soul Society... There are four gates surrounding this place: the Black Ridge Gate (in the North), the Blue Stream Gate (in the East), the Red Hollow Gate (in the South) and the White Way Gate (in the West). Soul Society is split into two different sections. Seireitei holds the majority of residents. These residents are nobility and Shinigami. Rukongai is the outer section of Soul Society and surrounds Seireitei. Those living there were in a poorer environment and rarely interacted with those in Seireitei.

Hueco Mundo... In this place Hollows and Arrancar usually reside. Hueco Mundo is located between the Human world and Soul Society. Hueco Mundo is essentially a desert that never seems to end. Hollows can also drag other spirits into this place.

When Sosuke Aizen, the traitor, defected and left for Hueco Mundo and after the first attack by his Arrancars. Orochi's massive power could felt. As if the land itself was drawn to this unknown source of power, it began to slowly shift from one dimension to another. Inside all of the buildings everything began to shake as if there was an enormous earthquake.

When the violent shaking finally stopped Chōjirō Sasakibe, lieutenant of the first division of the Gotei 13, looked outside and saw that he- No, Seireitei itself was in a completely different realm. Further up ahead beyond the gates of Seireitei; the formation of the land had changed. There were patches of molten rocks and molten material everywhere. Even on some of the buildings.

Chojiro could see that an army with troop's easily numbering over 10,000 soldiers had surrounded the Rukongai districts and Seireitei, on all four sides. The soldiers had pale snake-like skin and were obviously reptilian. In the midst of this army stood a man over 6 feet tall, he carried what seemed to be a large set of prayer beads. Out loud in a demonic voice he sounded out an order to his army, "Annihilate them."

At his command all the serpent soldiers attacked the gates. They easily took over the Rukongai districts. Chojiro immediately ran to report this unknown army to the Commander-general, Shigekuni Yamamoto-Genryūsai. Once the General had heard the news, Yamamoto spontaneously gave the order to attack the opposing army.

For once there was no delay. The order was exact and precise: protect Seireitei. Twelve Captains and twelve lieutenants readied the many soldiers beneath them. This was war. From the mounting screams of women and children in the Rukongai districts, to the mouthed sighs of woe coming from the dyeing. The dead were dying.

The Commander General watched the insanity from his office balcony. He had sent Zaraki's division to the Northern Gate there the Captain was maintaining his stand. The Eastern Gate was gathering up as many from the Rukongai as they could. This gate was under Hitsugaya-Taicho. Taicho's Mayori and Ukitake were just closing the Southern Gate. Lastly the Western Gate was protected by Byakuya Taicho. That gate was still open.

Yamamoto watched the people of the Rukongai flood the grounds of Seireitei. It was chaos and he knew it. Reports flooded in and inexperienced soldiers tried to make sense of the insanity around them. Everything was beyond reason now. The General felt his reserve failing and all hope was dwindling quickly. Then he saw it. Before the Western gate like a shadow of death stood a towering figure in the sea of the enemy.

Leaning over the balcony edge Yamamoto could see that Zaraki was making a path towards that particular enemy. It was unnerving that the man would leave his men, but this was Zaraki. Yamamoto looked back at Taicho-Kuchiki to find the man at the head of his division pushing the enemy back, wave by wave. He was thus succeeding; soon Byakuya would be able to close the gate.

Suddenly the General felt dread creeping into his being. Looking back his fear was confirmed. Zaraki's division at the Northern Gate was breached. The enemy was in; all the planning, all of the work to waste.

"General, it's time to go," a new shinigami appeared. It had already been decided that if Seireitei was breached, he would be escorted out of the city. Yamamoto slammed his hand on the balcony railing.

"Sir…"

"I know!"

The old man watched his beautiful city fall. Slimy, scaly reptiles began over-running it. Finally the old man nodded, stress showing through his experienced visage.
