Elle: Hello, I wanted to write a Bleach/Flashpoint fic and now I was finally able to do it :). I couldn't figure out a proper title for the longest time and I can't take credit for it. "Tables Turned" belongs in full to SAR132-4. So here it is, enjoy :)

Chapter One: Two Strange Teenage Samurai

"Sierra one in position, I've got the solution," Ed Lane said focusing his sniper rifle on the subject. There was a man holding a small child at gunpoint and the child looked scared out of his mind. Ed had issues when it came to using lethal force to end a situation but he shoved them to the back of his mind for now. His full attention needed to be on the situation. One false move and the wrong person would be killed.

Over the airwave and through the headsets Ed could hear the team Sergeant Greg Parker try and negotiate with the subject and get him to release the child. It was all futile. Ed could feel it in his stomach. He prayed that he wouldn't have to use lethal force but the situation told otherwise.

"Sierra one, Sierra two do you copy?" Greg asked. Ed heard the other sniper, Sam Braddock answer first but a blood curdling scream had diverted Ed's attention from the situation.

"Sierra one do you copy?" Greg asked. Ed watched above him at the strangest thing he had ever seen. "Ed, answer me!"

"What the hell is that?" Ed muttered to himself. It was quiet enough so Greg couldn't hear it but Ed heard Greg give Sam authorization to use lethal force on the subject.

Ed meanwhile was still transfixed by the sight above him and deaf to his sergeant's call attempting to bring him back to earth.

There was a monster flying above Ed. He couldn't believe his eyes. Monsters did not exist. He was sure of it. He had confirmed it at least ten years ago by checking under his son Clark's bed, closet and wherever a six year old could imagine a beast to be lurking.

The thing above him was hideous. It looked like the demented offspring of a sea urchin and a platypus. It had a white mask covering where its head should have been. Ed had half a mind to shot at it but he didn't what it was or even if it was real.

To cap it all off Ed saw two teenagers running atop a parallel building. They weren't ordinary teenagers, they were wearing black samurai robes and were carrying swords and they seemed to see the monster as well. Ed wanted to call out to them to get some information but he didn't want to give into this strange hallucination. The one teenager, a male with spiky orange hair pulled a gigantic sword from his back and leapt off the building into the air. He seemed to be able to fly as he launched himself toward the monster and in one fell swoop cut the beast from head to toe.

The thing's crimson blood spattered everywhere and Ed watched as the second teenager, a female pulled out a cell phone and dialed something as the monster disintegrated into thin air. The girl finished on the phone and met up with the boy on the building just above where Ed was standing. He could hear their conversation but he couldn't understand any of it. They were speaking in and Asian sounding language, Japanese maybe? Ed wasn't aware he was staring at them until the boy with the orange hair looked down and caught Ed's eye.

"Oi," the boy said. "Can you see us?" He spoke without an accent like he spoke English and the other language perfectly.

"Who the hell are you?" Ed called he wanted answers and he didn't care that his entire team could hear his conversation with two strange teenage samurai and he ignored Greg when he asked who was on the roof with him.

The boy with the orange hair looked at the girl with black hair.

"Rukia," the boy said. "He can see us, shouldn't we erase his memory?"

"Ichigo," the girl, Rukia, said. "Let's go we need to find our gigai and get back to the house. He's not an issue in fact I think we'll be seeing him later."

With that the two teenagers headed back in the direction they came from leaving a very confused Ed behind to deal with the rest of his team who had come up to the roof to drag him down.

"Ed," Greg was in front of him now. Ed had no idea how long the sergeant had been there. "What the hell is going on and who the hell were you talking to?"

"I'd like to know that myself," Ed replied. He and Greg started to walk down the stairs and out of the building to where the rest of Ed's team sans Sam were waiting. He looked at their faces and he knew that his little conversation with the strange teenagers unnerved them. As they headed back to the SUVs Ed made to drive the one he drove in with but Greg stopped him.

"Take shotgun Eddy," Greg said. "I need to talk to you."

Ed sighed and obeyed Greg. He knew what was coming. Even if Ed didn't like having to use lethal force he never broke concentration. The fact that Ed was Sierra one and Sam had to be given the order rarely happened.

"What the hell happened Eddy?" Greg asked when they were on the road. Ed kept his eyes forward. Thoughts chased each other around his head. He could make up some story about the wind screwing with the airwave or something but it took skill to lie to Greg. Even as Ed thought about it his cover stories were total bullshit and the only thing he could think of was to tell Greg what really happened atop the building.

"Did you see that thing?" Ed asked.

"You mean the man about to kill the child Ed?" Greg asked annoyed. "Yeah I did."

"No, the monster, the one that looked like an anemone screwed a platypus?" Ed said. There was no way in hell that Greg would believe him. Ed might as well of said that Santa Clause was handing out presents.

"And there were these two teenagers," Ed continued, "a boy and a girl, Japanese or something. They were wearing samurai robes and the boy carried this giant sword that was as tall as he was and they killed the thing and then the boy asked if I could see them and said something about erasing my memory but the girl said leave it and I might be seeing them later."

By now Greg had pulled the SUV back into the SRU headquarters. They walked past Kira's desk to get to the briefing room when Ed spotted them. Signing papers were a group of teenagers and among them were the orange haired boy and the black haired girl. Ed stopped Greg as he past.

"That's them," Ed said in a hushed tone. "The kids from before."

Elle: so review please and let me know what you think.
