(Review)
So, on the last Chapter of Hollow Cries we saw Ichigo and the whole gang face an evolved Hollow that were stronger than them all, he was a Vaste Lorde. But, with the gang tag teaming and coordinating their attacks they were able to overpower and obliterate the Vaste Lorde Hollow Known as Dordonii. But we skip to the moment where Ichigo told the hollows named Orihime, Nnoitra, Nelliel, and Alice that they must kill all 320 Hollows that were collected at the camp.
(Currently)
The duo of Nnoitra and Nelliel aren`t surprised, Alice is sorta indifferent and honestly sorta Hyped up, but Orihime well…
Orihime lived her life peacefully and even after her older brother died and she was on her own she tried to make friends and she even had a boyfriend being Chad. Her life was going well. Now her mistake was that she forgot her brother. You see a hollow doesn`t just come out of nowhere. A hollow is a human's soul that has given in to grief and despair and Orihime`s brother Sora Inoue was feeling this everyday due to him being forgotten by his beloved sister. Sadly, this was sensed by other hollows, and they made him into a hollow themselves.
After becoming a hollow, unlike Ichigo he didn`t have any control and so he sought out to kill and eat Orihime. But, when he was about to eat her, he ended up deciding to punch a whole through her body, and when her soul exited her body he did the same thing again. This is what caused Orihime to become a hollow, I know you must be wondering, why would Sora do that? He did it because he knew that if he failed and other hollows came, they would eat her, and she would become nothingness. This though only came from Orihime doing a strange action mainly her actually hugging her brother as he was about to eat her.
But after that, she become a hollow and she was scared and confused but her brother understanding his wrongdoing said that he would look after her until he can find a group. So, began their life of wandering and Sora may have said he`ll protect his sister but his own sister was stronger than him. She was able to manipulate her feathers to create shields, to attack by launching them at high speeds, and whenever she put more spiritual energy into her feather it was able to create healing properties.
So, for them, it took them 3 whole months to then hear some rumors of a group of hollows gathering together to get trained and get stronger. They said that whoever is picked will be apart of the elite squad that will soon take down the king Barragan. So, they traveled to Hueco Mundo and once there, well you should know since you're reading this story.
Now of course to be fully initiated into the crew, Orihime must kill others, and this includes her brother. As much as Orihime dislikes him for doing what he did at least he did take responsibility in trying to be with her. So, she doesn`t know what to say.
Ichigo speaks up if anyone objects then you must tell me now! No one puts there hand up and as much as Orihime doesn`t want to take lives, she knows that she must live above else. Ichigo tells them to prepare themselves as the crew are holding the other hollows in line.
*10 Minutes Later*
The group prepare themselves and sets out, and so it began the massacre of 320 other Hollows. Alice launched Cero orbs at other hollows killing them and their essence automatically goes into her body, empowering her and making her stronger. Nnoitra is cutting down every single hollow that comes his way with a smile on his face. Nelliel is using her spear and piercing through every hollow she confronts. As for Orihime as hesitate she maybe she does end up killing other hollows and all together the group are destroying the other hollows. Grimjow and his crew including Ichigo also step in killing each hollow with sadistic pleasure written within them. Ichigo himself is actually laughing maniacally while cutting down each hollow he finds himself facing and Grimjow and his crew are following this energy and are all around enjoying the massacre. Not even the group of newbies can believe their eyes as the main crew are blowing away other hollows like dust.
We cut to Orihime as she eventually comes across her brother. The two are looking at one another eye to eye. Orihime, with tears in her eyes prepares to kill her only family member. But she stops for her brethren's words as he spoke up and said something unbelievable.
Sora (Orihime`s Brother): Orihime what is the meaning of this? After all I`ve done for you. You dare try to kill me your one and only family member? HOW DARE YOU, BITCH I MADE YOU WHO YOU ARE!!! IF IT WASN`T FOR ME YOU WOULD`VE BEEN AN ORPHAN IF I HADN`T KILL YOU, OTHERS WOULD`VE!! YOU WHORE, YOU FLOCK TO POWER AND ABANDON ME!? YOUR BROTHER!? FOR THIS I HOPE YOU DIE A THOUSAND DEATHS YOU WITCH!!
Orihime just stood there as her image of her beloved brother disappeared completely. At this moment, Sora took this chance to even punch her across the face and beats down on her as she just took flat on her ass. Orihime though that this what she deserved for forgetting her brother, that she deserved because she even tried to kill him. This is when Ichigo seeing this disappointed decides to try motivating her in the best way possible.
Ichigo: HEY YOU, USELESS COWARD IF YOU DIE THAN YOU ADMIT TO GIVING UP ON EVERYTHING!! IN THIS TEAM, THIS CREW, WE NEVER ACCEPT FAILURES GOT THAT YOU COWARD SO GET THE HELL UP!!
Orihime hears this and starts to cry being insulted like this, but this is just what she needed to spark a fire in her. The fire that pushes all living beings to be better, HER WILL TO SURVIVE!!
She grabs her brothers' fist as it was about to hit her, she then proceeded to grab it tighter, and she picked him up and threw him like a ragdoll. As he fell, he looked up and all he saw was his death approaching faster than ever. Orihime fusing her reitsu (Spiritual Energy) into her wing she launched her feathers as literal bullets at any hollow she saw this included her brother.
After this, it only took about 5 more minutes for the whole crew to kill all the other hollows, none escaped. For all of the hollows this was enjoyable, or they were indifferent, but the only hollow there that struggled to get over this was Orihime Inoue.
Ichigo goes to talk to her, Orihime looks to him with eyes full of distain. Ichigo looks down on her and says-
Ichigo: Did you really think this was a joke?? Did you think that you could live like a human?? Hell no! THIS WORLD IS SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST AND YOUR OWN BROTHER PROVED THAT!!
Orihime lost it and right then and there she slapped Ichigo across his face, but she wasn`t that strong so it only stung him. Ichigo was still annoyed, remember Ichigo grew up as a human just to become a hollow the same day his mother died, and from there he had to fight for his survival every day. He currently sees Orihime as an ungrateful brat that refuses to see reality. His time with Grimjow kicks in harder that ever for his next action.
Ichigo, looking at Orihime as she herself understood what she just did, and to say the least she is gonna regret it. Ichigo slaps her across the face because as said he is a true advocate of gender equality. Ichigo`s doesn`t stop there, he proceeds to continue slapping her back-to-back. From her cheeks being red, to scratches being made from the rupture in her skin, to then her nose bleeding, Ichigo goes in again and again. Whenever she tries to back away, he steps forward continuing the assault. To be fair no one is stopping him as they do see Ichigo being in the right. But Ichigo stops after one slap so hard it not only knocked her out but made her skeet across the sandy ground.
Ichigo then speaks up.
Ichigo: Alright let's get going, we need to find a place to set up camp away from here. I`ll carry Orihime this once but as the rule goes, we may be lenient but if you slow us down either prepare to die or be left behind.
So, with that being said they began on there Journey to find a new place, the place that will be known as their home but above all their kingdom…
*Elsewhere in the world*
A man with a skeleton for a face and black robes wielding a black axe is speaking to his people. This person was Barragan, King of Hueco Mundo. It seemed that the topic of their conversation was something of recent interest. Apparently 320 Hollows were wiped of the face of Hueco Mundo. The group that survived are so strong that they are all Vaste Lorde`s but even before becoming one they defeated one. This had Barragan`s interest for one reason, for you see for decades now he has felt empty inside and battle hungry. So, this is the perfect chance to finally have war and shed blood. Barragan tells his soldiers to gather weapons and gather as many recruits as possible because 3 months from now they shall find these newly made group of Vaste Lorde and kill them.
*In the world of the afterlife, THE SOUL SOCIETY*
The soul society, the world where souls pass on and where the organization of the Shinigami`s (soul reapers) exist. We zoom in on a conversation taking place with a group of known powers. These people are referred as captains of their respective divisions. Now today is a special day as a Man stands between all captains, for today he is announced as a special was power. This Man is Isshin Kurosaki, the man who is driven with determination to get his son back.
*Later that same day at the 5th division quarters*
The captain of the 5th divisions is speaking with 2 other captains being that of division 3rd and 9th. The 5th divisions captains name was Sosuke Aizen and as for the 3rd his name was Gin Ichimaru and lastly the 9th captain name was Kaname Tosen.
Aizen: In three months we shall place the plan into motion and take control over Hueco Mundo and Have my Little project.
*We then switch perspectives to the world of the living*
A Large Man, with dark tan skin and wavy hair, tall and strong build, and yes, he`s Mexican (I know irrelevant but hey idk) This man's name was Chad. At this current moment he was still depressed of his lovers' murder but because of this he searched wide and long for answers of her death. After a long Month he finally found it, Answers, but the people that gave these answers weren`t normal at all and are known as the fullbringers…
This is where we wonder, what is Aizen going to do and how? Why is Chad affiliating himself with people such as the Fullbringers?? How did Isshin Kurosaki became from a Human to a soul reaper and how did he become a special war power. You will all find out soon but for now we shall follow Ichigo as he knows nothing of these events…
*Back To Ichigo*
Ichigo: This is the place, yea I can sense it`s potential, This pillar looks amazing to live in.
Grimmjow Nods in agreement.
Shawlong face palms.
As everyone is dumbfounded because it looks excactly the same as the 25 other pillars they passed.
THE END OF CHAPTER 4
