Kicking Back in Karakura

Ichigo released a hollow battle cry. he clashed blades with makai, 'I'LL KILL YOU!"

Makai kicked Ichigo back. he spun and upper cutted him into the air, "Now now Ichigo shouldn't you be focused on your friend? A minute has gone by?" The fabric tightened on orihime. She awoke with a startled.

"it won't feel to bad at the moment but in twenty minutes she will die an agonising death!"

" its best not to interfere with that espada, besides girl you cant stop the inevitable." Bane said with a fatherly tone

Once more, Rosalie broke free and turned towards Yuki, slapping him.. "YOU stay out of it!" She ran back into the barrier and kicked Makai in the face, sending him sprawling across the ground. She glared at him. "I said stop it!" Rosalie looked toward Ichigo, "Hey, go save your friend."

Ichigo yelled as he clashed blades with Makai. The espada raised a hand and fired a point blank cero. ichigo flew through the air his clothing torn his body battered his mask half broken. He hit the ground,

Ichigo awoke in his inner world, 'Ichigo what are you doing!" asked the hollow ichigo with a scowl, "bastard where's Zangetsu!' The inner hollow laughed, "Fool i am Zangetsu! Now do you really want to say that girl? Then take some of my knowledge!"
Ichigo leapt to his feet reforming his mask. He lunged forth clashing blades with Makai. A cero started to charge at Ichigo's mouth, "CERO!"

Makai leapt out of the way. Ichigo charged up a second cero. as he did his body started to transform. Hollow armour covered his body. a hollow hole appeared in his chest. a long tail grew from his tailbone. Ichigo sprung forth slamming against the espada, "I'm going to kill you!" spoke the hollowfied ichigo with full control.

Orihime screamed in pain as the fabric constricted around her body. Ichigo growled at Makai, "It's been a full four minutes sixteen left Ichigo and she's dead."

I'm going to regret this so terribly bad.. "Cero!" She raised her hand at Makai but nothing happened. "Ayy.." Shock turned quickly to anger. Anger turned to embarressment.

makai looked at the three on lookers and projected his thoughts, "Don't interfer you have no idea what is really going on. So have patience and watch!"

Makai lunged forth and clashed blades with the hollow Ichigo. lightning blade met metal. Ichigo swung his tail. Makai leapt over Ichigo and kicked him in the back of his head. Ichigo spun around and charged up a cero in his hand. The cero shot forth. Makai battered the hollow flash in the opposite direction.

The two clashed again. Makai pushed Ichigo back. Orihime screamed again as the fabric tightened again and again. The two clashed for three minutes, "Oh you only have 9 minutes left Ichigo-kun and she's dead!"

Streams rolled down orihime's face, "Kurosak-kun..." orihimne screamed in pain her body was being crushed.

Yuki shrugged of the slap like it didn't happen. " silly girl - 25 points for lack of manners -25 points for suicidal tendacies however 50 points for bravory," yuki announced as if they was at a sporting event.

" that girls going to get herself killed a well yuki we tried to stop her but she is one wildcat." bane said to yuki in a serious tone of despair.

tey didnt move a spot and seemed unimpressed with the treatment of orihime.

Damn these stupid Gigai to hell! I can't use any techniques! "I'm not going to let you kill him no matter what! I'm stronger than you think, you stupid Espada!" The second the word escaped her mouth, she knew she made a huge mistake. Now she was no longer a normal human. Ugh. Back to the drawing board. I need yet ANOTHER Gigai. Maybe this time I can choose the 'model..' Rosalie crossed her arms and glared at the two fighting. Then she had a better idea.
Rosalie ran over to Orihime and focusing all powers into her hand; a microscopic cero came out. The force was just great enough, however, to break Orihime's bonds, and she fell to the ground. Rosalie helped her up.

Makai clicked his fingers and the orihime the human girl had went up in smoke, 'Sorry thats a fake! She's over there!" makai pointed to the side to reveal antoher bound Orihime in fabric with three Makai clones guarding her. Ichigo roared and clashed against Makai.

"three minutes left Ichigo-kun..." Orihime screamed in pain again her bones breaking. Ichigo roared and fired a giant black cero. Makai easily blocked the attack as it destroyed the terrain. "Two minutes"

Hollow and shinigami reiatsu exploded of Ichigo's body. He and Makai clashed blades again. His tail lashed over. Makai was floored into the ground. Ichigo swung his blade releasing a giant black Getsuga. he flew towards Orihime. Makai flashed in front of him, "1 minute!" he kicked him into the air.Ichigo landed and dashed to orihime, "ORIHIME!"

Makai appeared in front of him heel kicking him into the ground, "30 seconds left."

The hollow Ichigo jumped and slamemd Makai across the ground. he used sonido to apepr right next to Orihime. Before he could even touch her the three clones appeared all kicking him in the stomach sending him into the barrier, "Times up!"

"DAMMIT!!" Ugh, I've lost it! Rosalie tossed a Soul Pill in and her body fell to the ground. She yawned and stretched. "Get lost, Makai. It's obvious that no one wants you here."

The fabric covered orihime and crushed her. Ichigo dropped to the ground his hollow form vanished. Makai sighed and clicked his fingers. the fabric vanished to reveall...A MAKAI CLONE! "You have a strrong resolve boy."

The clone went up in flames, "To tell you the truth i never intended to kill her. orihime you can come out." Walking out from behind a rock was orihime Inoue completely unharmed.

Ichigo stared completely stunned "W...W...what...?"

Makai sighed and explained, "It was a clone sicne the beginning of the fight. it was to persuade you to unleash you power. You ichigo needed this. You needed to become one with your hollow. Instead of him taking over you...you were the one in control! Your resolve to save Orihime was stronger than you hollows to take over your body. You have a strong heart kid."

Rose was absolutely pissed. "...I have NEVER been more mad at you in my life. Because of YOU, I need to get a new Gigai. My goals were to protect Ichigo (and also mission) and you ruined EVERYTHING!! He wasn't supposed to KNOW!!" She tackled Makai to the ground, in a playful, yet annoyed, manner.

Makai sighed as Rose attacked him, "How else is he going to get stronger? He needs to learn to control his hollow powers completely! He needs to learn to control his hollow form!"

"But yous don't have to beeee mean about it!!" The Captain grinned playfully and rolled off of him, laying in the grass, slight purring was being emitted from her.

finally hearing the message from the Hell butterfly " observe order on Kurosaki Ichigo is released, main priority is to observe the Espada makai and to help with his plans to defeat Aizan, squad 9 is also to help protect Karakura Town from normal hollow attacks, report back all details to Head Captain Yamamoto. that is all."

makai shrugged, "it's really one of the only ways it'll work. His resolve to protect his friends over rided his hollows will to take control of his body. With his heart he took complete control over his hollow."
