Hi everyone! -Dodges flying rabid monkey- I know I know, I should be working on Twilight Toddlers and FMI. I'm sorry. I've been on a Bleach craize and this new idea popped up a few days ago. I'm having my idiot friend Kawaii Overdose helping me with it because she's the Bleach whore and I'm the Bleachtard!

K.O.- WOOOT! -gets boot thrown at-

Anyway, just so everyone knows, this takes place at the beggining of the Arrancar arc. It's like the manga so the Bount arc never happened. (I never watched it and I'm -still- reading the manga so screw off). Like I said above, I am a Bleachtard so I apologize in advance if I screw up anybody's personality...or if I spell their name wrong.

I do not own Bleach. At all.

It was a dark, cold, stormy night outside. Thunder crashed and shook the ground. Lightning lit up the sky every few seconds. Inside the castle was no better. A young woman was walking down a long dark hallway. She held a torch and looked behind her every few seconds. The woman opened a wooden door, and began walking down some old stone steps. She failed to realize the looming shadow behind her. When she finally turned around and saw what was behind her she screamed.

“AHHHHHHHHIE!!!” Yuzu and Rukia screamed together as Karin came up behind them with fangs in her mouth.

“Karin that’s not funny!” Yuzu cried. Ichigo looked up from his homework. Yuzu was yelling at Karin, Karin was rolling on the floor laughing, and Rukia was holding her heart and panting.

“Got a little scared there huh?” Karin said with a grin on her face as she took the plastic vampire fangs out of her mouth. Ichigo chuckled a bit. It was very nice to see Rukia terrified of something, however he didn’t need her up all night.

“Are you sure you should be watching that?” He said looking at the old vampire movie.

“I’m fine.” Rukia said. Her voice was convincing, but her face was still a little pale.

XxXxNext morningXxXx

Rukia looked like she didn’t sleep at all the previous night.

“I told you.” Ichigo said as they walked to school. On the way they met up with Renji, Ikkaku, Yumichika, Rangiku, and Histugaya. (A/N: GAH! I’ll kill the creators)

“Rukia, are you alright?” Renji asked, concerned for his friend.

“I’m fine, just a little tired.” She replied.

“She watched a vampire movie and got scared.” Ichigo said. He received five confused looks. He couldn’t believe it.

“Y... You don’t know what a vampire is?” He asked in shock. They all nodded. For a few minutes the strawberry had to use the wall to support himself as he laughed.

“I fail to see what’s so funny about this.” Histugaya said, getting pissed at the strawberry’s laughter.

“I... it’s just...” Ichigo said, trying to breathe. “Vampires are like one of the oldest monster stories around.”

“Are you gonna tell us what the hell a vampire is?!” Ikkaku yelled.

“A vampire is a bat-like monster that sucks human blood.” Ichigo explained. “The have fangs and everything. They don’t exist though.”

Their little ‘chat’ had brought them to the school yard, where they met up with Orihime and Tatsuki.

“Good morning Ichigo!” Orihime cried.

None of them noticed the reptilian like bird watching them from the roof. It blink it’s yellow silted eyes once. Then it spread its wings and took off.

XxXxAt lunchXxXx

“Your serious Ichigo, they didn’t know?” Orihime said shocked. Ichigo decided to wait until later to tell Orihime about the Soul Reapers not knowing about Vampires. Orihime found it more shocking than funny.

“Kind of sad isn’t it?“ Ichigo said, looking over to them. They had a book on vampires and they were reading it with interest.

"Hey, it says garlic wards them away." Rangiku said.

"How the hell does that ward someone away?" Renji asked.

"Have you smelled that stuff?"

Rukia came running towards them, cell phone in one hand, red glove on the other. She smacked Ichigo in the face, causing his death god form to come out.

“The Hollow is this way.” She said pointing south. They flew from rooftop to rooftop. Finally, they reached the place. The Hollow was some sort of giant spider. It was chasing the soul of a young man. Ichigo wasted no time defeating the weak Hollow. Then he turned his attention to the soul.

“T-Thank you.” The soul said.

“No problem.” Ichigo said, performing the Konso. He heard a giggle. Thinking Rukia was laughing at him for some stupid reason, he turned around. However, Rukia wasnt laughing at him, she was looking at the top the building next to them. Standing on its roof was a teenage girl. Ichigo couldn’t make out her face, but she was dressed in a violet shirt, and a dark blue dress. What looked like green torn up lace hung from the sleeves and hem of her shirt. Her hair was black, with dark violet highlights. Perched on her shoulder was a strange bird. It looked more like a dragon than a bird, but it was no bigger than a hawk. The girl laughed again, and leapt away. Ichigo and Rukia just stood there for a few seconds.

“That was weird.” Ichigo said. “Do ya think it was an Arrancar?”

“No, she had a lot of Spirit Energy, but not enough to be an Arrancar.”

“And if she was a Vizard, she would have been with Shinji.” Ichigo said. It was a very weird encounter, but if it wasn’t a Vizard or Arrancar, he wasn’t all that worried.

XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx

Four figures were standing on the roof of a skyscraper. Three were very old and one was very young. A burst of wind greeted them, and the girl appeared before them.

“You’ve returned.” One of the elders said. He was talking to the girl.

“Did I pass?” The girl asked.

“You should have left before that Soul Reaper showed up.” Another one said

“What? That Hollow appeared fast and I wanted to see a little action. Haven’t you ever heard of 'dinner theater'?”

“You’ve got some blood on your lower lip.” The younger one said, handing the girl a napkin.

“Did I pass or not?”

“Yes, yes you passed!” The third said.

The girl grinned, as she wiped blood from her lower lip.
