Going In Completely Blind

"Hello there viewers...Shinko here...*I proceed to say this, while smiling with both of my eyes closed. To which I then proceed to open them again, in order to continue, to properly address the viewers*...So anyways viewers, before I proceed forward with this particular chapter...and like always viewers...a chapter recap is in order first...now then viewers...let us begin the chapter recap now, okay?...*I proceed to say this, while smiling with both of my eyes closed*"

Date: April 28, 2002

Okay, so as it would seem, our old villains of the rogues gallery had somehow managed to make a return. But, as it was about to made clear to all of us on our side, this wasn't actually the case. In fact, with the impending and soon arrival of more of our allies. We were about to learn, that even though something may look like it is too good to be true. In this case, it was the return of the same villains from the last battle. This, was actually a complete lie, in fact...

"Okay, so it seems that you villains didn't learn the last time. So Wedding Peach, I think that it's about time that we..." I had now proceeded to say, as I held my Saint Sword Of Bluebell at the ready, in a battle ready stance.

But, however...

"Bluebell, those are not the same villains that you and the rest of us fought against back in Academy City!" The unmistakable voice of one Rukia Kuchiki now proceeded to call out to us from seemingly out of nowhere.

And just as Rukia had finished this very statement of hers. I proceeded to turn my attention to her, and proceeded to try and protest what she had just said. But, as I was about to do so.

Rukia then proceeded to use her Sode no Shirayuki's Shikai. "Now Dance...Sode no Shirayuki...Some no mai, Tsukishiro!" Rukia now proceeded to call out. Which was then quickly followed, by a wall of ice then proceeding to encase both Jadeite and Pluie in a block of ice.

But, the only difference this time, was that once they were both encased in ice. I was then able to immediately make out, that who we all thought were Jadeite and Pluie, were actually what appeared to be hollows, that had been impersonating both of them. And upon realizing this, my face, then turned into one of sheer anger and rage. As I was currently quite pissed off, with having whoever knew of our previous fights against Pluie and Jadeite, had just tried to use their forms in order to try and deceive us.

And with regard as to why I was not upset about the hollows being able to have this very ability? Well given some of the crazy things, that the hollows from the Bleach anime were able to do. This wasn't really something that neither me, Zachary or Keiko, seemed to find all that surprising.

But, with regard to my immediate reaction to this sudden realization...

"Alright Quiche, start talking right now! Just how do you have hollows in your possession?!" I now proceeded to ask Quiche in a very demanding tone. As I was still quite irritated, that Quiche had somehow gotten hold of a bunch of hollows, and whoever had given them to him to use, was now going to have to answer to The Four Aces Alliance, for trying something so heinous and evil on us.

But not surprisingly, given Quiche's quite frankly predictable response to my demand to him...

"Oh, so now you want to ask me for information? Sorry Bluebell, but I don't do handouts," Quiche now proceeded to say, which he had said, with a very sly looking smirk currently present on his face.

And, not surprisingly, with a now all telling smirk, now making its way onto my face...

"Oh, I think that you'll find Quiche, that we can be very persuasive. In fact Renji, would you care to demonstrate exactly what I mean by this?" I now proceeded to speak up with. As the visible all telling smirk on my face, now proceeded to become that much more wide and prominent.

And sure enough, right on cue...

"Now Roar...Zabimaru!" The unmistakable voice of Renji Abarai now proceeded to call out his Zanpakuto's Shikai. As this was then followed, by his Zabimaru to then break into its several sectioned form.

And before Quiche could even react, he was completely tied up in several of Zabimaru's separate sections.

"Now Quiche, if I were you, then I would start talking now!" Zachary now proceeded to say. As he had wound up saying his statement, with quite a bit more aggression to my tone, then he usually talked in on rare occasions. Which since like Sakura, he was usually a lot more calm in nature, then that of me and Keiko. So having him react in this more aggressive manner, was not only foreign to him. But, it also wound up catching the immediate attention of Sakura, who was somewhat surprised by Zachary's reaction to the current situation.

But, given what Zachary and Sakura, had already gone through. Which included, but was not limited to both the Final Judgment, and the Final Test. Since I knew this from the information that I had on the Cardcaptors anime canon timeline.

Which was actually no longer all that really relevant. This was something, that wound up causing Sakura to wind up pushing this to the side. Since both of them, had been involved in the aforementioned events back in their respective anime canon timeline.

But with regard to Quiche's current situation, Zachary's statement to him, had thankfully wound up doing the trick. And as a way to confirm this...

"Alright, I get the message. I got the hollows from..." Quiche proceeded to speak up with. Only for someone else to now decide to interject.

"I wouldn't tell them if I were you Quiche, as that would wind up leading to your untimely end," A currently unrecognizable disembodied male voice, now proceeded to speak up with.

And, upon the figure, now proceeding to fade into existence. We were all met, with a very uneasy feeling. Which as it turned out, happened to be an overwhelming amount of spiritual pressure.

"What the heck?!...How is this spiritual pressure so incredibly strong?!...I haven't felt his much power!...Is this what Ichigo Kurosaki and the rest of the 13 Court Guard Squads, had experienced, when they went up against Sosuke Aizen back in Karakura Town?!...Which by the way viewers...if you haven't already gone and watched the Bleach anime...along with TYBW: Thousand-Year Blood War...Then I am sorry to say viewers...that you will wind up being a bit lost in regard to these next few upcoming chapters...So viewers...I will tell you all right now, that there will be TYBW and Bleach anime spoilers ahead...So if you are looking to still read on...just know, that you've been warned...So then viewers...let us now get back to the chapter, as well as the situation at hand...shall we?" I thought to myself. Which during this thought, I had briefly turned my attention, slightly to the left of me, in order to briefly address the viewers.

But, getting back to the current situation, and away from my thought based fourth wall break...

And, as well as for this particular figure, and what he looked like? Well, he was a tall man of seeming middle age, with a long face, broad chin, pronounced cheekbones, and reddish-brown eyes topped by thin eyebrows.

He had long black hair, that reached down to his lower back. And was paired with well-kept mutton chops plus a connected mustache. But apart from that, he seemed to be clean-shaven.

He was also wearing what looked like standard attire. Which consisted of a white, double-breasted trench coat that had a mysterious looking symbol on the middle, with large buttoned cuffs and lapels, white trousers, and trench boots. And over this, he was wearing a tattered, ankle-length, maroon-black cloak, that had a red ribbon near the neck, and was fastened to the left with a single large button.

And as for who this person was...well about that...

"Hello everyone, I hope that I'm not intruding into your little fight? But, what do you say, that we get serious now?" The mysterious man proceeded to say, as both of his fists, had now proceeded to glow a very bright looking white color.

And, though not one of us knew who this mysterious man was. We were soon going to learn, that this fight that we were all about to undertake, and be involved in, was going to wind up being our toughest fight to date.

"And that is going to wind up being quite a bit of an understatement viewers...Oh right...Keiko here...sorry about that...*Keiko proceeds to say this while traditionally bowing to the viewers as usual. To which she then proceeds to bring her attention and eyesight back up again, in order to continue to address the viewers. She also now proceeds to clear her throat, as she then proceeds to continue, to properly address the viewers*...Now then viewers...I bet you weren't expecting that sort of plot twist now were you?...I mean, did you honestly think that we were all going to be doing the same fight with the rogues gallery all over again?...I mean, if you did assume that, then you honestly don't know what truly awaits you all in the upcoming chapters of these three fanfics...In fact viewers...this is going to wind up having more twists, then M. Night Shyamalan has in his movies...But anyway viewers...this now marks the end of this particular chapter...But you don't need to worry about this being the current case viewers...as we will be getting right back into the action in the very next chapter...So then viewers...with this all still very fresh on all of your minds...I look forward to seeing you lot there...okay?...*Keiko proceeds to say this, while smiling with both of her eyes closed, and her head, tilted to one side, in a very cute looking manner*"

"Thank you for that Keiko...And so viewers...as Keiko just said...we along with Shinko, look forward to seeing you both in the next chapter...okay?"

"And thank you as well Zachary...And so viewers...like Keiko and Zachary...we all look forward to seeing you all in the next chapter...okay?...*I proceed to say this, while smiling with both eyes closed*"

And now that the chapter recap is now done. We will now proceed right into the current chapter.

Date: April 28, 2002

Okay, so getting back to the current situation...

"Well, I see that I've gotten your attention now haven't I? Now then, let me show you all why you should fear the Quincies!" The mysterious man in white now proceeded to say.

Which interestingly enough, was then followed by yet another high speed attack, then proceeding to try and hit me from behind.

But thankfully...

"Saint...Spiral Whip!" Angel Lily now proceeded to once again call out, as her Saint Spiral Whip once again proceeded to speed forth, wrap itself around my torso. And then once again proceed to tug my slightly sideways, and out of the trajectory of the high speed attack.

And not surprisingly...

"Alright, who keeps trying to attack us...identify and show yourself to us right now!" I now proceeded to say, which was just after I had planted her blue high heel clad feet down onto the ground again. And Angel Lily's Saint Spiral Whip, had once again uncoiled from around my torso.

And to the surprise of both Rukia and Renji...

"Well, I see that my arrows keep missing their marks...Hello Rukia...Renji...it's been awhile hasn't it?" An unfamiliar sounding male voice now proceeded to speak up with. Well, it wasn't familiar to most of us. But to me at least, I knew exactly who this voice belonged to. And so, with this in mind, I proceeded to try and speak up, in order to notify, as well as alert the rest of us on our side, exactly who he was. But thankfully, and yet annoyingly, Keiko managed to beat me to it...

"Well Uryu Ishida, I would say, that it clearly hasn't been long enough, now has it?" Keiko now proceeded to say. Now realizing exactly who he was. But, as for why he was working with the bad guys, this was something that she wasn't able to understand. But, it would soon become quite apparent, as to why this was in fact the case. In fact, I was already well aware, as to why someone like Uryu Ishida, was currently siding with the enemy.

But, for the time being regarding the current situation...

"Alright Quincy, I would start talking if I were you! Just why are you siding with the enemy?!" Misaka now proceeded to speak up with, as electricity was still proceeding to crackle quite violently, through the bangs of her brown hair.

"My, aren't we the snippy one?" Uryu now proceeded to say to Misaka in a somewhat snide sounding sort of tone.

"Watch your tone Uryu! Unless you want to get a sudden shock to your system, then I suggest that you watch your tone when speaking to Misaka!" Keiko now proceeded to say, as I could not tell that Keiko had now gotten quite fed up with Uryu's current tone. As with a tickmark now becoming quite prominent and present, on one side of her face. And with me now having noticed this fact. I wasn't really surprised by this at all. And this was also while the crackling of electricity, had now become much more violent, as it proceeded to crackle, through the bangs of Keiko's long light blue hair.

"My, aren't you the arrogant one?" Uryu now proceeded to say to me.

And not surprisingly...

"Saint...Rolling Boomerang!" Angel Daisy now proceeded to speak up with. To which she now proceeded to throw both of her Saint Rolling Boomerangs towards Uryu.

But, as a shock to all of us, Uryu simply just wound up using another one of his Reishi based arrows, to snipe both of Angel Daisy's Saint Rolling Boomerangs out of the air. And this, not surprisingly, wound up sending a shock through Keiko and Misaka.

But as for me, I knew that the only trouble with Uryu in this situation. Was that if we wound up launching more attacks his way, then there was no way that his arrows would wind up being able to snipe them all out of the air.

And so, with this in mind, and with me then proceeding to give a nod to Eternal Sailor Moon, and the rest of the Senshi...

"Moon...Gorgeous...Meditation!~"

"Mercury...Aqua...Rhapsody!"

"Mars...Flame...Sniper!"

"Jupiter...Oak...Evolution!"

"Venus...Love And Beauty Shock!"

"Death Reborn...Revolution!"

"World...Shaking!"

"Deep...Submerge!"

"Dead...Scream!"

And upon all of the Sailor Senshi, proceeding to launch their respective attacks towards Uryu. I was very confident, that Uryu wasn't going to be able to dodge them all. But, what was about to happen, was going to wind up sending us all, into yet another fight. But, it wasn't going to be in this particular anime dimension...

"But in fact viewers...sorry, Keiko here again...*Keiko proceeds to say this while traditionally bowing to the viewers as usual. To which she then proceeds to bring her attention and eyesight back up again, in order to continue to address the viewers. She also now proceeds to clear her throat, as she then proceeds to continue, to properly address the viewers*...Now then viewers...this now marks the end of this chapter...But don't worry viewers...as we will be getting right back into the action in the next chapter...now then viewers...I will see you lot in the next chapter...okay?...*Keiko proceeds to say this, while smiling with both of her eyes closed, and her head, tilted to one side, in a very cute looking manner*"
