Hi guys chapter two is coming up

First I would like to thank Alucard 180 for giving Nanao's Zanpaku-to a name I really like, and Gagboy for suggesting pairings

To reiterate, nothing in the known world would give me ownership of Bleach (I wouldn't do as good as Kubo-sensei anyway)

13th Captain: Ichigo Kurosaki; Chapter 2: Memories


Ichigo had assembled the entire 13th division into a large courtyard

"All right listen up everyone; I'm your new captain, Ichigo Kurosaki, any questions?"

The 3rd seats both raised their hand simultaneously "Blondie you first" Ichigo stated

"Kurosaki-taicho, how come you got made the captain" Kiyone asked

"Apparently, Ukitake-taicho asked the head captain to name me as the captain when he went to block off Aizen as I tried to bring gramps the Hogyoku" Ichigo responded sighing

"How the hell did Ukitake-taicho get killed?" stated

-FLASHBACK-

"Ukitake, you know that this is suicide" Yamamoto pleaded his old student

"If I don't, Kurosaki will have to face them himself, see he brought the Hogyoku (Break down Sphere), if I don't make it back; place Kurosaki Ichigo as my replacement"

"Very well Jushiro" the Head Captain sighed, knowing this would be Jushiro's final battle

At this Jushiro Ukitake shunpo'd towards where Aizen, Ichimaru, and Tousen were closing in on Ichigo and finally appeared between the young soul reaper and the three captains. "Hello, it's been a long time, Sosuke Aizen, Kaname Tousen, Gin Ichimaru, now the three of you will die by my hand; every wave, crash and be as my shield, every thunder, strike and be as my sword, Sogyo no Kotowari" after saying this Ukitake's blade split into two and morphed into two decorative-looking blades connected by a red rope.

"How interesting, Shoot him Dead, Shinso" Ichimaru stated as Shinso's blade extended towards Jushiro, who cleanly dodged without any effort

"Ichigo, go take the Hogyoku to Yamamoto-Sou-Taicho, Victory here depends on it"

"But, Jushiro I can't just leave you here"

"It is necessary, once the Hogyoku is secured I will retreat, I promise"

Ichigo then retreated toward the head captain's position, the last words he hard from Ukitake during his retreat being "Bankai"

-FLASHBACK END-

"That's all I know, but I heard that those three bastards were all mortally wounded by Ukitake-taicho" Ichigo solemnly stated

Another member of the division raised his hand "Kurosaki-taicho, who is you lieutenant" she asked

"Oh that's right, Nel get in here"

"Hai" a gentle voice rang out as a beautiful woman with blue, but with a slight green tint to it "Good morning, my name is Neliel tu Ordershvank"

"She's the new lieutenant, and Rukia is going to be promoted to third seat, sorry about the sudden change"

"That is all right Kurosaki-taicho" now 4th seat b shouted "I for one will trust your judgment"

"I have a question" Kenpachi said from the background "When are you going to fight me again, Ichigo"

"Alright, alright, Kenpachi, we'll fight, but first, Rukia gather up all the Lieutenants and captains for us will ya"

"Why" Rukia responded

"I want them all to know about my extra abilities"

"Okay Kurosaki-taicho"

"Just call me Ichigo, all right Rukia" the captain groaned

-10 minutes later, Squad 11 Sparring Field-

"All right, everyone here now?" Ichigo asked.

"Yup" Rangiku hollered holding her captain by the neck

"Good, now let's get started, Kenpachi"

"All right, Ichigo" Kenpachi said with one of his crazy smiles

'Ken-kun, be careful' Unohana Retsu thought

Kenpachi drew his sword charging Ichigo, as Ichigo readied his Zangetsu "Ban Kai" Ichigo shouted, causing black spiritual energy to fill the air, and Ichigo stood there wearing a black jacket over his haori, and holding a long pitch black katana with a 4 link black chain dangling off of the hilt "Tensa Zangetsu"

"Entering Bankai already Ichigo?" Zaraki asked his opponent

"I'm going to need to pull out all the stops, Kenpachi" Ichigo stated placing his left hand over his forehead and lowering it, manifesting his hollow mask.

'I see now Kurosaki-taicho' Yamamoto thought calmly 'you want all of us to be aware of your hollow powers, so that it does not cause strife at a critical moment'

"Oh, using your hollow powers too, Ichigo" Kenpachi stated, his smile widening

"What is that" 9th division lieutenant Shuhei Hisagi asked

"When Ichigo regained his hollow powers, he almost became a hollow" Shunsui began, having heard the story from Kisuke during the war "He however became a hollow out of order allowing him to become both simultaneously"

"So we have such a beast as a captain?" Soi-Fon asked no one

"But it seems that Shihoin-san has full faith in him" Retsu replied before whispering "Don't loose Ken-kun"

"Unohana-taicho you" Soi stuttered

"Please refrain from mentioning such things, Soi-Fon-taicho" Retsu said very softly, scaring the living daylights out of Soi-Fon

"H-Hai"

Ichigo and Kenpachi continued striking each other with full strength, eventually Ichigo jumped back and focused his spiritual energy into Zangetsu, a black sphere forming at the base of the blade, Ichigo flung his blade forward calling out "Getsuga Cero" afterwards a black cero, with a continuous Getsuga Tensho spiraling around it fired at Kenpachi, who smiled and blocked with his nameless Zanpaku-to, resulting in a massive explosion. "Heh that all ya got, Ichigo" Kenpachi said from the crater caused by the attack.

-To Be Continued-


Okay first off like I said I already decided to go with Alucard 180's Name for Nanao's Zanpaku-to, also it is officially Ken/Ret as well

Still need a few more ideas for Nemu's Zanpaku-to

Also an idea for Kenpachi's Zanpaku-to's name and style if you can think of one

It would be nice (as in not necessary) if someone gave me an idea for Rangiku and Momo's Bankai

And a yuri pairing for Hime-chan please
