Hey sorry for the wait. I had to find a beta-reader and my mom die so I haven't been as active as before. But here is the chapter and I have more stuff to talk about at the end so stay tuned.

Karakura Town, The Streets, Night

"God damn it! Quit running!" Edward shouted as he chased down Kon. Who just ran faster and laughed at him and Sakura responded.

"At this rate, we lose him!" Sakura added as she glared at Kon.

Edward huffed and then turned to Sakura, "Hey Sakura," Sakura stopped and turned to him, "I got an idea..."

Kon was happily 'hmm' to himself. It was great to be able to walk again in Ichigo's body. Once he ditched these two Kon planned to the town to find some girls. The pink girl was fine to look at but he quickly learned that she bites back. Maybe he finds some nicer chicks out there.

Wait...was it him or his shadow was getting bigger?

"Ahhh!" Kon cried out as Sakura landed on his back, kicking up dust when they fell.

"Got him!" Sakura exclaimed as Edward used his alchemy and pushed back the platform he used to toss Sakura.

"Finally!" Edward ran up toward them as Sakura dragged Kon up and put his hands behind his back.

"Hey watch those hands! Unless you want to go lower...Ack!" Kon cried out in pain as Sakura squeezed his hands in pain.

"Finish that sentence and I'll end you," She said in a singsong tone of voice.

"Fine, fine," Kon said. Maybe next time....

"Ichigo!"

A portal opened up in front of them and a large man with a tattooed face stepped out of it. His eyes locked on to Kon and then his face turned into a murderous one in that second.

"There you are Ichigo. Come here and fight me like a man!" Kon screamed when the man lunged at him. Sakura pulled Kon away just in time.

"Friend of yours?!" Edward asked, clapped his hands, and touched his metal arm. A part of the metal forearm reshapes into a blade.

"H-he's Grand Fisher! I heard about him but he looks different now." Kon explained, ready to bolt, "He must mistake me for Ichigo!" He told them. Then Grand Fisher closed the distance, fist raised to smash Kon into a red smudge on the ground. Who was lucky that Sakura pulls him out of the way.

"Fight me Ichigo!" Grand Fisher yelled at Kon and who hid behind Edward and Sakura.

"Any chance he might leave us alone if we told you're not Ichigo?" Sakura asked.

"Most likely not," Kon answered.

"Figures," Edward scoffed.

Sakura ran forward and pushed Grand Fisher back a few feet.

"He's not here! Go away!" Sakura yelled at him. Grand Fisher glared at her and Edward ran to her side.

"You want to get in my way? Fine then, you two die first!" With that Heartless rise up from the shadows gathered around the trio.

"The hell? They're here too?" Edward questioned and one of the Heartless lunged toward him. But he saw it coming a mile away and stabbed it with his blade arm. That killed it but more started to close in.

"Less talking and more fighting!" Sakura replied, as she picked up one Heartless and used it to beat the other one to death.

"That's good! I'm just going now," Kon turned around then tried to run away. Only for Heartless to block his escape route.

"You're not getting away Ichigo!" Grand Fisher pulled out his sword which was the size of a house and swung at Kon. Who screamed in terror. A part of the ground raised a block and the swing and Sakura threw the Heartless at the Hollow. Kon felt someone grab someone's wrist.

"Stay close to us idiot! He's not going to let you go!" Edward shouted at Kon.

Grand Fisher swings his sword at Sakura who jumps away. But then Grand Fisher darted forward toward Sakura who was still mid-air. She couldn't dodge! Edward rushed forward to Grand Fisher and a punch with his leg metal-blade arm to stop him. He just wanted to stab him, to make him flinch in pain. But then when fist contact with his leg and him went flying. Edward looked down at his fist in shock. He noticed there was a slightly green aura around. Just like Sakura's punches...

"Will you two," A sudden breeze was all the warning Edward got before Grand Fisher appeared right in front of him, "STAY OUT OF MY WAY!" He was about to cut Edward down but Sakura punches him away.

Bam!

"Edward now!" Sakura shouted and he didn't miss a beat. He claps his hand and touches the ground. A part ground raised and transformed the giant hand and grabbed the Hollow.

"Get out of here! Ichigo isn't here and your Heartless buddies are gone," Edward glared at the Hollow, looked like he's ready to murder him, "You lost. Now get out of here before we kill you." Edward said coolly. Of course, Edward never killed someone before and the thought of taking someone's life disgusts him but maybe he fakes that he had before to scare him.

"Fine," The Hollow sighed in defeat, and Sakura and Edward eased up. While Kon panicked in the background.

"You idiots! He's no really goi-" Grand Fisher broke out his bonds and rushed so fast that Edward and Sakura just blinked and he was already a foot away from Kon with his sword in hand.

"Die!" Kon screamed as the Hollow swung it's sword down at him. The impact kicked up a dust cloud and Sakura and Edward felt hold their breaths. But someone blocked the sword before it made contact with Kon.

"You should have listened to what the other two about Ichigo," Isshin said, as he pushed Grand Fisher back, "He's not here." Grand Fisher looked down at him with narrowed eyes.

"Who the hell are you?" Grand Fisher glared down at the man.

"I'm Isshin. Ichigo's father." Isshin answered him.

"Then you can tell me where he is."

"I have no idea. Ichigo is a big boy who can look after himself." Isshin told him.

"Why are you like that with Ichigo and not your daughters?" Kon raised an eyebrow.

"They're not the same! My daughters are fragile and delicate!" Isshin babbled.

"Fragile and delicate isn't what I call your daughters," Edward muttered to himself as Kon and Isshin argued back and forward on the matter.

"ENOUGH!" Grand Fisher shouted, which stopped Kon's and Isshin's little spat, "If you won't tell me then I'll force the answer out of you!" With that, he drew his sword and Isshin pulled out his own in return.

"I heard the larger the zanpakuto the bigger their spirit energy is," Grand Fisher explained as he eyed Isshin's sword with a smug expression on his face, "But yours is small, so this will be easy." Grand Fisher was about to swing his sword on the man but Isshin beat him to it as he darted forward and swung his sword. Blood sprayed on the ground and Grand Fisher's eyes widened in disbelief when his chest was sliced open.

"H-how?" Grand Fisher coughed his voice gargling by his blood.

"Soul Reapers captions learned to control their spiritual pressure early on. Otherwise, we are carrying zanpakuto the size of skyscrapers." He explained as Grand Fisher fell. He let out a gasp and twitch then he was still. Sakura and Edward let out a breath of relief as Grand Fisher's body disappeared.

After a few moments silent, Edward exclaimed, "What the hell was that?"

"What do you mean?" Isshin asked.

"Oh what you think? What might you do is become a Soul Reaper and you don't seem surprised about Sakura walking around when she is supposed to have a broken leg. Wouldn't that make the avenge joe just think, 'hmm maybe this guy is hiding more than he leads on.'" Edward explained as he glared at Isshin, "Did you know all this time?"

"...Yes. I knew that you and Sakura weren't from this world," Edward's and Sakura's eyes widen in surprised and Isshin laughed at their expression, "Your lie wasn't that all good and the way you act doesn't help as much." Kon looked confused.

"You knew all this time?" Sakura asked him in disbelief.

"Yes, as like I said you two suck at lying but I couldn't turn you guys away because you were lost and have nowhere to turn to at that moment. I can't turn someone away like that," Sakura and Edward were touched by Isshin's words but they still have so many questions for him.

Those thoughts stopped when Isshin spoke up, "Time to go home! But before that, I have a request for you three."

"What request do you have?" Sakura asked.

"Don't tell my son I'm Soul Reaper. I want you two to keep quiet about it. I want to tell him myself when the time is right," Isshin told them.

"Um..sure," Kon answered, still confused over all of this.

"Sure," Sakura replied, while she feels like Ichigo should know about this. This was a family matter and not something she should get involved with.

"Fine," Edward said grumpily. While he was sick of being in the dark this is between Ichigo and his old man it was more family issues that didn't want to get involved with.

"Ok then let's go home!"

Dream Link, Night

When they got to Ichigo's home they found Ichigo already there. He looked shaken up about something but when asked about it Ichigo just said he has to figure this out on his own. Edward and Sakura didn't press the issue on after that because Ichigo glared at them when they asked and they were just tired from today's fight.

When Sakura and Edward sleep that night they find themselves in a large room that seems to be made out of wood and furniture. Sora and Haelth were already there around a large table.

"About the time you guys got here! What took you so long?" Haelth questioned them.

"Let's just say someone that we made friends turned out had an old enemy to deal with," Edward answered as he took a seat, and Sakura followed suit.

"Small world, the same thing happened to us!" Haelth exclaimed.

"Ok... explain that to me," Sakura questioned her. From there Haelth and Sora explained that a Hollow that attacked them before had tried to kill them with a group of Heartless while they were trying to eat another Hollow's family. After they took care of the Hollow the trio made friends with the said family. And then afterward they find out a new type of Hollow....

"They're called Arrancar from what Ashido told us. They're Hollow that ripped off their mask to get the power of a Soul Reaper." Sora explained, "Ashido said they were rare and some of them weren't strong like some of the other types of Hollows. But then said that some very powerful Arrancars are gathering at someplace called Las Noche."

"Las Noche?" Sakura asked them.

"Some castle that the old Hollow king used to live in." Haelth took over the explanation, "Ashido said to stay away from there because there's a powerful guardian and a bunch of powerful Arrancars lived there too. Many Soul Reapers or Hollow that wonders too close disappear~" Haelth's tone to mocked spooky voice as she waved her arms. Sora laughed at her actions and Edward and Sakura just rolled their eyes.

"It's going to take a while for us to make teleport. So please stay out of trouble in the meantime." Sakura told them.

"We will!" Sora and Haelth said at the same time.

"Ok if we are done here then let's begin the training," Stranger adds as they raised from the shadows, "If I make a suggestion I think we start with magic today because that's the only one that you four haven't gone over yet." Sora and Haelth looked at each other as they were the magic users in the group.

"You go." Haelth told to Sora, "I'm not master of mine magic yet so you'll be the better teacher." She explained to him, she looked downcast at that last statement. Sora patted her on the shoulder and she smiled at him before she joined Sakura's and Edward's side.

Sora got up from his seat and walked toward the other side of the house with others in tow, "Ok first up let's start with Fire." Sora begins the lesson as he summons his keyblade.

"Now you start to feel the magic inside you as you-," Sora stopped when Sakura questioned him.

"What does that mean?"

"Sora, that's not a good explanation on magic." Haelth comments in a deadpan tone of voice.

Sora rubbed the back of his head, "Sorry I never teach anyone magic before."

"Well, how did your old master teach you?" Edward asked him. Sora thought back when he first learned magic from Donald and that's when he realized. He didn't learn a thing from his friend! It was all dumb luck!

"Sora?" Sora looked at Haelth, who tilted her head, "Are you ok? You've been quiet for a while now." She asked him concerned.

"Sorry...but I didn't have a good teacher so I don't have an idea on how to teach you guys," Sora explained as he rubbed the back of his head.

"THEN HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO LEARN?!" Edward shouted at him. Sora held up his arms and tried to explain but Edward just verbally abused him.

"I think I can help," Stranger said, as they raise from the shadows again, "From what Sora is trying to say that to use magic feel the magic inside of you. You all should have in because you're connected to Sora. You need to picture in the magic a ball of light inside of you. I want you three to close your eyes and picture it." Sakura, Edward, and Haelth did as the Stranger told them to do and closed their eyes. Haelth saw a sphere of light in her mind eye, "Reach out toward it and let the energy travel through your body." Haelth felt a strange energy flow through her body, which felt weird but she followed Stranger's advice and let flow through her body. Then it felt like a huge release was let out and Haelth felt great power coming from her. She opened her eyes to see some sparks blue light that dance around her fingertips. They were so small that Haelth didn't notice them at first until she looked closer. She heard a gasp beside her and saw Sakura was looking at her hands too. But when she turned to Edward he looked confused.

"...Was something supposed to happen?" Edward asked at them in confusion.

Sakura raises an eyebrow, "You don't see the spark?" Edward shook his head to answer her. Sakura shows him her hands so he can see the sparks, even then he still couldn't see it.

"You also believe in it to use magic," Stranger explained, which Edward scoffed at, "You don't have much faith in the unknown, do you?" They asked for amusement.

"You can't put my faith in something that can't be explained or doesn't make sense," Edward answered.

A ghost of a smile appears on Stranger's lips, "You are smarter than most people who blindly follow what they are told." They frown a bit, "Unfortunately this is not the time or place for this. Magic is something that cannot be explained because it makes things out of nothing. There are theories where magic comes from but don't have all day. Sit this out for now."

Edward huffed but what he was told and leaned against the wall.

The stranger turned to Sora, "Now what was the easy spell to learn?"

"Oh, it was Fire," Sora answered.

"Ok I need you guys to imagine fire shooting out of your weapon or in case hand," They pointed at Sakura, "into one of the flying furniture," Sakura and Haelth looked at Stranger in confusion.

"The what?" Haelth asked before she got hit with a flying chair. Haelth and Sakura looked up and saw furniture they sat on loomed over them.

"That furniture."

Sakura ducked before any of the chairs could hit her and roll to the side. Haelth summoned her spear point at one of the tables, 'Ok Haelth just imagine fire coming out your spear like so-' Right out of the gate fire spring forward and engulf a chair that is coming toward her. She almost dropped her spear in surprise and Haelth holds on to it. When the fire died down and Haelth felt her energy was drained from her. It was like coming down from sugar high.

"Why do I feel so drained?" Haelth asked more to herself but Stanger answered her anyway.

"Magic energy drains a lot faster than normal energy, so spend your magic wisely." Haelth looked worried at this and Stranger quickly explained, "Think of normal energy and magic energy as two separate beings. Your normal energy comes from your body and magic one comes from something else. Edward peeks up at this.

"So wait, if the energy used to create magic isn't from our bodies, then where did it come from?" Edward asked them.

"It's hard to explain. But magic sometimes comes from gods or the world itself. But this kind of comes from the Heart or rather center of your soul," Everyone, including Sora, looked confused, "There are different parts of what makes the soul. Memories, which are the mind of the soul. The spirit, which is the body, and then Heart is the most important because it centers your soul." Stranger explained.

"Wow, that's amazing!" Sora exclaimed and Edward glared at him.

"You don't know how your power works and you still use it?!" Edward criticized Sora.

"It's just working! I don't question it." With that Sora and Edward started to argue while Sakura and Haelth looked at each confused, and Stranger just facepalm.

"Just get back to work."

Hueco Mundo, Morning, Nel's Meeting Spot

"Nel? Are we still going to wait?" Pesche asked his sister.

"Zowa, Cwona, and Haelf said they are coming! So we wait!" Nel answered her brother, never once taking her eyes off of the horizons in search of the trio. Pesche and Dondochakka looked worried. Their sister had attached to these strangers and they are worried that it may backfire on her. In Hueco Mundo finding allies that won't backstab you was rare. The brothers don't want their little sister to face a loss like that but on the other hand, finding people that do care about you are few and far between around here.

"There they are!" Nel exclaimed as she jumped up and down. The brothers turned to three familiar figures and ran toward them while one hung back but as he watched the group. Nel rushed up to the trio and tackled Sora in a hug.

"Sora!"

"Oof!" Sora grumbled out as he fell. Crona and Haelth rush to his side.

"Sora!" Both exclaimed as the rash to Sora's side. Haelth helps pulled Nel off of Sora while Crona helps him up.

"Are you ok?" Crona asked Sora.

"I'm ok," He answered. Nel wiggled out of Haelth's arms and ran toward Sora.

"Waah! I'm sowwy Sora!" Nel apologized to him. Sora just pats her on the head and smiles at her.

"It's fine Nel," Sora said as he got up. Nel dried her eyes and smiled up at him.

"Yay! Let's play!" Nel started to talk Sora. Haelth about to join them but saw that Pesche and Dondochakka walked toward them with Bawabawa in tow.

"Oh hey...um Pesche and Dondochakka right?" Haelth asked them.

Pesche nodded and then struck a pose, "That's right we are Nel's older brothers! I'm Pesche."

Dondochakka followed suit, "And I'm Dondochakka! We allow you to hang out with us but harm our sister and you'll be in a world of pain!" Haelth holds back a giggled but on the other hand, Bawabawa seems to laugh at the brothers' actions.

"Wouldn't dream of it." She commented.

Crona hid behind Haelth which was hard for them as Crona was way taller than her. She gently nudged them, "Come on Crona, introduce yourself. It's fine."

Crona eyes darted to the brothers as they stepped from Haelth's shadow, "Um...H-hi I'm Crona. I-it's nice to meet you!" They stuttered out.

Pesche smiled and stepped toward Crona with his hand held out for them to take, "Nice to meet you Crona!"

Crona looked down at Pesche's hand and slowly shook it, "It's n-nice to meet you too!" Nel leads Sora back into the group so they could all talk to one and another.

"So what do you guys do for fun around here?" Sora asked them.

Nel answered him, "We can play Eternal Tag!"

"Sounds like fun! Who wants to be 'it'?" Haelth asked. Nel ran up to the nearest person which happens to be Sora.

"Tag you're it!" Everyone beside Crona and Sora ran away in different directions. Sora ran up to Crona but was stopped just two feet from them.

"Crona, you're supposed to run," Sora told them and Crona rubbed the back of their head.

"Sorry. I've never played this kind of game before." Crona explained to him. Sora tilted their head and then realized that he doesn't know much about Crona's past.

But before he could ask Crona. Haelth ran up behind Crona and grabbed their hand, "We got to run Crona! I'll explain the rules later but first, we gotta getaway!" With that, the two disappear in a cloud of dust. Sora thought about going after them but then decided not to. He saved them for last. First, he goes after Nel's brothers.

He ran toward Dondochakka who was slowest out of all them. But Dondochakka did so on purpose to give the human a fair chance to catch up to him. But then as Sora landed on his back so fast that he was a blur Dondochakka realized that these weren't the same humans he heard about.

"Got you!" Sora exclaimed.

Dondochakka couldn't help but laugh too, "It's my turn now human!" With that Sora ran away with Dondochakka who chased after him.

Ashido watches them from afar. He kept an eye for Hollows as Arrancar's family wasn't going to turn on Sora, Haelth, or Crona. For now at least. There still could be other Hollows looking for an easy meal....

Hueco Mundo, Morning, Las Noches, Aizen's Throne Room

Aizen looked down at his two Espada who bowed before him. They were Ulquiorra and Halibel; two have his most powerful Espada and ones most loyal to him. Which is why he's going to send them on this mission because they will follow his orders and not mess up.

"Greetings my Espada I have an important mission for both of you." He greeted them.

"What do we need us to do, Lord Aizen?" Ulquiorra asked him in the usual emotionless tone of voice.

"I want to capture two humans alive here at Hueco Mundo," Aizen said to them. Halibel's eyes for a moment flick up at him but then look down out of respect.

"These are the humans I want to capture," Aizen pushes a button on his throne and two holograms appear in front of the Espada, "Sora here will Ulquiorra's target and as for the girl, Haelth will be Halibel." Both Espada looked at their targets. Not at all impressed by their targets.

"Halibel, I trust you with the girl," Aizen said, "I know you would protect her and your Fracción will keep an eye on her in case you have somewhere else to be."

"Of course Lord Aizen but may I ask why do you want these two humans?" Halibel asked him.

Aizen closed his eyes and let 'hmmm' sound before he answered, "The boy Sora is a Keyblader. Long-Forgotten warriors from other worlds that travel across universes." That caught everyone by surprise included the emotionless Ulquiorra.

"Are there other worlds out there besides Hell, the Soul Society, and human one?" Halibel asked Aizen.

"Yes. I didn't know about Keybladers until after I became a captain. But there is a reason I said there were Keybladers. No one knows why but they all disappeared years ago. If it wasn't Head Caption who was around to meet these Keybladers. They will be no more than just a story," Aizen smiled a bit at that last statement, "And now we have a Keyblader here in Hueco Mundo. If we are going to win this war with the Soul Society we are going to need all the power we need to get." The two Arrancar were smart enough to put two and two together.

"But what of the girl?" Ulquiorra asked, eyed the hologram of Haelth.

"Well, we need someone to keep the boy in line." Aizen replied coldly, "And using his friend might just keep him under control." There was also the issue with Conner who wanted the girl for some unknown reason. He wanted to know why but Conner won't explain why he needs her, just to not harm her. But he never said he couldn't keep her 'guest'. Plus Aizen wants to know why Conner needs her.

"Understood. When do we leave?" Ulquiorra asked him.

"Now. The Heartless will show you their locations and remember I wanted them alive." With that, the two Espada bowed and then left. That leaves Aizen waiting for their return with hopefully good news.

To be continued...
