“Shatter… Senbonzakura!” Byakuya released a barrage of petals as soon as his Zanpaktou melds to the ground…
“Roar! Zabimaru!!” Renji extends his Zanpaktou to the giant bear, hitting it head on, as Byakuya sends a storm of petal-like shards to the bear. It only made it furious and stomped at the Soul Reapers.
Ukitake held his Zanpaktou and closed his eyes, "Waves, Become my Shield, Lightning, Become my Blade" At that very moment Ukitake’s Zanpaktou became a pair! “Sōgyo no Kotowari” He prepares to charge at the beast, slashing it in supersonic speed.
“Captain Ukitake! You can’t keep this up!” Rukia shouted, knowing that if Ukitake gets agitated or fights too long, his illness would flare up.
“Don’t worry, Rukia! I can hold for at least half an hour!” Ukitate swarms the bear, attacking it from every flank.
"Reign over the frosted heavens…” Toshiro prepares to attack as well… “Hyorinmaru!!” At that moment an ice dragon immerges in his sword and streaks over the bear, turning its left arm to ice, at this moment Renji, Byakuya and Ukitake saw this opportunity and directs their attack at the frozen arm, shattering it easily.
The Bear lets out a pained wail and held its arm in the attempt to ease the pain, this got the bare more agitated and swings his right arm to slash the pest beneath it.
All of the Soul Reapers dodged the attack just in time.
“Man, this idiot moves slow!” Renji taunted, and commented at the slow movement of the bear.
“You’re the one to talk…” Byakuya shot back, knowing that he was slow as well; Renji just glared and returns his focus at the giant bear.
Kenpachi was so pumped up that he as well joined the fight, the bear saw him coming and gave him a sharp slash to the chest, leaving a huge wound at him, but to no avail… Kenpachi just gets more and more pumped up, and now with a rage full of bloodlust. He didn’t care if he gets hurt; he just wants some of the action.
“RAAAHHHGGG!!!” Kenpachi removed his eye patch, causing his full power to emerge. The bear sensed this and was about to bail. But Kenpachi was blinded by rage and bloodlust, which he literally charged in without second thought and carves the bear limb from limb. The rest of the group helped out to finish off the bear, leaving just chunks and parts of it litter the ground…
All of them were tired immediately after the battle. But Kenpachi was still out of it…
“Does that guy ever get tired?” Renji asked as he took in gulps of air, gasping heavily.
“I don’t think so…” Love said.
“Don’t worry…Kenny is doing fine!” Yachiru claims, all of them stared at Yachiru in surprise, then again… Its Kenpachi, they already expected it…

Ichigo runs towards the forest looking for that huge amount of Spiritual Pressure, he soon reached the source and could not believe what he was seeing…
“Rukia?!” He shouted as the group looked at the direction to where the familiar voice came from…
“ICHIGO!!!” Rukia shouted back and ran towards him, Ichigo expects a hug from her but once she got close enough…
WHAM!
He was clobbered at the back of the head.
“What was that for?!” Ichigo cringes as a small bump appears on his head.
“What the heck are you doing? Disappearing like that!” Rukia shouted, going to an
argument with Ichigo.
“Is it MY fault I ended up in a super girlie world?!” Ichigo rants and almost steam coming out of his ears.
“Well you~” Rukia stops, “What did you just say?” Rukia asked, not getting what Ichigo meant.
“Yeah, you heard me! Were ALL in a girlie world!” Ichigo repeats, louder.
“A…girlie world?” Rukia looks at her brother and then at Ukitake, which also don’t know what he was talking about.
Ichigo face palmed himself, and had enough of stupidity for a lifetime. He just took a deep breath and started to speak, “Okay… I would rather let you see what I mean, instead of telling you…because I may look like an IDIOT if I tell you chuckle heads a very simple fact!” Ichigo turns and walks towards the town.
Everyone in the group looked at each other, Ichigo looks back at them.
“Well?! You coming or not?” Ichigo moves on not looking back anymore, not having any choice at hand they all followed Ichigo, not knowing what they might encounter in this land, they can only rely on Ichigo for the time being…

Meanwhile, back in Karakura… Inoue and Ishida walks to the Urahara shop and got some questions in their mind…
“Urahara? You home?!” Ishida called out, while knocking at the door… But Ururu was one who answered.
“Boss, is inside...would you want to come in?” Ururu said, as she opens the door for them.
Urahara was sitting on a table, sipping tea. Ishida and Inoue entered the room and walks over to Urahara.
“Ahh... Inoue, Ishida... So glad you could make it...” Urahara greets as they sat down along side him.
“You probably know what happened to, Ichigo right?” Urahara said, while sipping his tea.
“Y-yes... Rukia told us before she went to Soul Society.” Inoue said, while glancing at Ishida.
“They say, he went to another world...” Ishida said, flicking his glasses back to its center.
“Well, they are...and I~” Before Urahara can continue, Yoruichi jumps to the window and goes inside in cat form. Then transforms back to human.
“Ahh, glad you can make it, Ms. Yoruichi.” Urahara tilts his hat, and goes back to the topic. "Now that your all here, lets get started."
“Wait... get started? On what?” Ishida asked, not knowing whats going on.
“Were going to see, Ichigo.” Yoruichi said, as Urahara gets a small device.
“Now, Before you all go there, I must warn you about that place.” Urahara pauses.
“What about it?” Ishida said, curious enough to ask Urahara.
“That place is filled with horrifying creatures, and sentient beings that walk on four legs...but the most terrible thing there is their, Princesses... One look and they will tear you to pieces...” The room became silent, and an odd atmosphere entered the room... only to be broken by a laugh from Urahara.
“I’m just kidding! Lighten up...” Urahara, goes to the door to where Ichigo had his training...but before they could enter, Urahara connects the small machine to the hinges of the door making the entrance slightly different.
“Oh, one other thing...” Urahara gave them a bottle with blue liquid in it...
Ishida takes one, so does Inoue and Yoruichi.
“Whats this for?” Yoruichi asked, examining the bottle...
“Looks like sapphire water...” Ishida said, as he opens it and smells the top of the bottle.
“Is it safe to drink?” Inoue asked, slightly worried of whats inside the bottle...
“Look, just drink it so you wont become like them... okay...” Urahara said, while maintaining a grin.
The three of them made no fuss, and just drank the liquid... all of them widened their eyes and started to gag.
Urahara starts to laugh, loudly... The three of them glared at Urahara, for probably made a bad prank at them... Urahara guessed whats in their mind and quickly gave an answer.
“Don't worry, its safe...and I assure you its not what you think...” Urahara opens the doorway to that dimension and motions them to go in.... “By the way, some Captains and Lieutenants including ,Rukia are in that dimension already... say hi for me!” After that the three bid farewell and jumps to the doorway, while Urahara remains grinning as he shuts the door...
“I should have told them about monstrous looking beast there, earlier...” Urahara rubs his chin of that thought... "Nah, they probably figure it out later anyway...” He then returns to his table and drinks tea... within minutes he slumps to the table and fall asleep, like lazy bum he is...
