Adventure Time

You sweatdrop slightly. "Great...a female Mayuri.." Shakeing the ickys off, you turn to Shinigami-san. "So how do we do this?" He chuckles slightly. "I assume you have the ring John-kun?" You quirk an eyebrow. "How'd you...never mind." You reach into your pocket. "You mean this right?"

"Yo ho ho, exellent! It DID survive after all!" He bobs happly before poping a giant white hand out. "Now the process is quite simple, you only need to touch the mirror with the emblem to ope the gateway." Your grandfather hovers into veiw. "Excuse the interuption Shinigami-san, but what is exactaly is this ring?"

"A piece of my soul, more or less. I gave that to your predecessor during my wild and wolly days." A white cloud suddenly pops where Shinigami-san was, and in his place is an intimadating sight. "We worked as partners in the old days," And with anothe pop the goofy version is back in place.

"Ok, I guess that explains things." You shrug slightly. "Lets get this overwith." And with a light tap you touch the ring to the mirror. "What are you doing?" Stein mumbles in confusion as you and the others have instictively shielded your eyes expecting a bright flash of light, or an explosion. "Yo ho ho, Joseph did the exact same thing, first time he used the ring."

You blink owlishly as Doc. Stein rolls her chair out into your world. "Take care of Franky for me Johnny!" And with a wave Shinigami-san's image fades out. "That was.....strange" your deadpan murmer is met with nods from Unohana Yoruichi and your grandfather. Turning to the strange young lady leaning backwards on the even stranger office chair you smile and hold out your hand.

"Uh, I guess its nice to meet you, miss Stein." She smoothly stands up and leans closer to your face. "My word, you're even better looking in person John-kun." She smiles slyly. "And please, call me Franky.." You supress a shudder as she lightly traces her finger across your chest.

"Ahem, as much as I enjoy seeing my grandson flustered, I'm sure you'd like to get to work?" Stein shrugs. "Yeah sure, hey Johnny, I'm assumeing the Snake is around somewhere?" You nod. "Sure, Medusa Eruka and Crona are at the house, why?" Her sly but slightly lazy smile suddenly turns into an evil grin. "Oh...nothing, Care to show me the way, cutie?"

Before you can say anything your grandfather interupts. "Unfortunatly I need JOhn for something, but Unohana-san and Yoruichi-san know the way. Stein pouts visably by blowing smoke out of her nostrals. "Fine, Hope to see you soon cutie." And with a wink her and your girls zoom off down the hall.

"What's up Grandpa?" He strokes his beard in contimplation. "Johnny my boy, as you can see, we arent exactaly in any kind of shape to be effective in a fight." You nod slightly, wondering what he's getting at. "The thing is, 12th division has detected a strong but warped reitsu signal comeing from Karakura town," You nod again. "Something wrong? I thought that that Strawberry kid, and Byakua's sister where watching the area."

"They are indeed, but Central 46 is afraid that they might have been infected by the same curse we all are suffering from, and the Reitsu signal, although distored in a simmilar fashion to...well...to us. It seems to be an arrancar, or to be exact FOUR arrancar's" Your eyes widen in suprise.

"Four arrancar's, in the same predicamint as us?!" He nods in agreement. "We want you to check up on Kurosaki-san and Kuchki-san, and after you are to approace these strange Arrancars for a parlay." You scratch your chin in contimplation. "Ok, sounds like a plan. Though I dont have the foggiest Idea what I'll say to them though."

He pats you on the shoulder. "I'm sure you'll think of something my boy," He suddenly snaps his fingers. "Why dont you take some of your wifes with you for...support." You squint your eyes at his useage of the word but shrug. "IS that all?"

Later on.

Walking up the the front gates of your home, your suddenly assulted by loud laughter and angry curseing. "Oh lord, what now...."
