Research and destroy

Back in Karakura Town, within the Kurosaki's lounge room, Kon, Rukia and Ichigo's father, Isshin Kurosaki and little twin sisters, Karin and Yuzu Kurosaki, who had been told about what had happened to Ichigo and Orihime the day before, and now were watching to see what evil being from one of the other hero's world the Substitute Shinigami and owner of the Shun Shun Rikka would have to take down, and knew though Ichigo was indeed strong, he had Orihime to assist him and heal any injuries he may sustain.
Ichigo and Orihime were then taken to another one of the Champion Hunter's Death Zone Stadiums, where they saw a man with short field drab brown coloured hair, a pair of small spectacles and was wearing a white lab coat, as his left hand was tucked within his lab coat pocket, who then said, as he pushed the spectacles up his nose. "So you're the two heroes I must dispose of in order to get my revenge. In a way I'm glad I'm not against any wretched Digimon. But in another way I'm disappointed as I would've loved to see those filthy pests crushed before me."
"That's not going to happen, Kurata!" Ichigo replied in an angered tone, as he withdrew his Zanpakutō, while Orihime got ready to fight too.
"So you know who I am?" Kurata asked in a curious tone, in which Orihime replied. "That's right. Marcus told us all about the horrible things you did for your own selfish benefits and that's why we're going to defeat you. So you cannot harm Marcus, Agumon or any other Digimon."
It was upon hearing that familiar name, in which Kurata clenched his right hand into a fist, as he spat out in a bitter and hate filled tone. "Damon!"
"I swore when I was trapped in the Digital World that I would have my revenge against him and that Digimon he calls a friend. And thanks to the Champion Hunter freeing me from my Digital prison, Damon will pay!" Kurata told Ichigo and Orihime in anger, before he calmed down and went on. "But don't worry, I don't intend on destroying Marcus right away. First I'll delete Agumon before returning back to my world and then that's where I'll have my fun."
"What do you mean by that?" Ichigo questioned.
"Since both Spencer and Marcus ruined my chances to rid myself of Digital life forms, I'll destroy them both, but I just cannot decide on one thing. Should I destroy the Damon's father as his son watches or should I destroy the Damon's son?" Kurata replied in a wicked tone, which caused Ichigo to snap, charge at Kurata and yell out. "Neither, you bastard!"
However, Kurata didn't seem the least bit fazed by the fact someone wielding a sword was coming at him, and he was about to show why, in which he quickly pulled out his left hand from his pocket, revealing he was holding a remote, which he then activated, and before Ichigo or Orihime knew what happened, a large void opened up beneath Kurata's feet, which he carelessly fell into, leaving the orange haired teens alone, but not for long.
It was then Kon, Rukia, Isshin, Karin and Yuzu watched in stunned silence as an army of what looked like purple coloured robots with green coloured wires for arms and legs emerged from the void, before they opened fire on Ichigo.
"Santen Kesshun!" Orihime then exclaimed, as she got in front of Ichigo and protected him with a barrier of orange energy from the blasts of the creatures, Ichigo and Orihime knew were Kurata's mindless Digimon he had created out of data of Digimon he had experimented on and destroyed, Gizumon-XT.
However, Ichigo could see cracks begin to form across Orihime's shield and knew it wouldn't be long until the Gizumon's blasts would get through, in which the wielder of Zangetsu leapt over the barrier and slashed at Kurata's Digital pawns, destroying them and turning them into data particles, but with the fall of the first wave of Gizumon, more arose from the void to take their place, in which the Substitute Shinigami began to slice his way through the seemingly endless swarm of Kurata's Gizumon army.
Meanwhile, though she disliked combat and hesitated to use lethal force during fights, Orihime knew she had to use her Koten Zanshun attack, but before she did, the owner of the Shun Shun Rikka could see the void was the cause of the endless Gizumon onslaught which gave her a better idea on how to defeat Kurata and his mindless Digimon.
Back to Ichigo, the wielder of Zangetsu continued to avoid the blasts of Kurata's Gizumon, before he would slice them to pieces, but soon, he then groaned out as it looked like there was no end to them, however, the orange haired teen was proven wrong when the Gizumon army ceased sending in reinforcements, before he heard Orihime call out his name, in which the Substitute Shinigami could see that Orihime had used her Santen Kesshun shield attack to create a barrier over the void, preventing anymore Gizumon from entering the arena.
However, just like before, Ichigo could see cracks begin to form across Orihime's shield and knew it wouldn't be long until the Gizumon would break free, in which the Substitute Shinigami leapt into the air and exclaimed. "Getsuga Tenshō!"
It was then Ichigo launched a dark crescent moon shaped slash of energy, which broke through Orihime's Santen Kesshun shield and struck the crowded swarm of Gizumon, which created a massive explosion within the void and looked as though it had destroyed every last Gizumon, however, it was then Ichigo and Orihime could hear Kurata begin to laugh with the void, before the traitorous researcher told them. "Did you really think it would be that easy to defeat me? I'm afraid not for all the Gizumon you have destroyed have served their purpose as power supplies and now my secret weapon is ready to awaken and eliminate you."
"What is this guy on about?" Karin questioned, but got her answer, which shocked her, her twin sister, Isshin, Kon and Rukia when the void opened up further, before Kurata slowly arose from it on top of a giant beast's head, which to them looked like a ram-like creature with bat wings and a clock chained to his chest, though Ichigo and Orihime knew it was Belphemon within his Sleep Mode, before Kurata jumped off, landed behind the beast and exclaimed manically. "Your time is up. Nothing can stop me now!"
It was then the clock on the monster's chest began to ring, before the chains surrounding Belphemon broke apart and the entire structure of Belphemon changed, until towering over Ichigo and Orihime was non other than Belphemon Rage Mode, who let out a loud roar, which caused the wielder of Zangetsu and the owner of the Shun Shun Rikka to shield their faces, as Belphemon's roar began to tear apart the stadium.
"From Sleep Mode to Rage Mode! This the true form of the Mega level Belphemon! He possesses the same attacks, but now we will do them with great vengeance and furious anger!" Kurata then exclaimed, as he stood, or hid behind Belphemon, like the coward he truly was.
Belphemon then fired a massive blast of dark purple energy from his maw at Ichigo and Orihime, which consumed the pair, in which Kon, Rukia, Isshin, Karin and Yuzu all called out to their friends in a concerned tone, however, when the blast faded, they could see Ichigo was covered in scratches, wounds and blood, but was still standing, though the same couldn't be said about Orihime, as she had used her Santen Kesshun to try to protect herself and Ichigo, but Belphemon's blast was far more powerful than her shield.
Deciding to get some pay back for harming Orihime, Ichigo leapt at Belphemon, as he drew his Zanpakutō back, before the Substitute Shinigami sliced forward, only to strike Belphemon's left hand, which didn't even leave so much as a scratch, in which Belphemon then countered as a red aura of evil encircled his right fist, before he slammed it into Ichigo and caused the wielder of Zangetsu to be thrown across the arena, before he was slammed deep within the wall behind him, which caused everyone back in the Kurosaki residence to call out in a concerned tone. "Ichigo!"
It was then Ichigo removed himself from the wall and collapsed onto all fours, in which Kurata laughed and exclaimed. "That's it, bow before your new king for there's nothing you can do to Belphemon!"
However, it was then Ichigo looked up, which confused and scared Kurata little as now adorning Ichigo's face was a white skull shaped Mask, which had several dark red markings on the left side of the Mask, while behind the Mask, Kurata could see that the Substitute Shinigami's eyes had changed too, no longer were they brown, but were now a fearful yellow, while his sclera had changed to black, causing Kurata to question himself fearfully, as he could feel a dark force radiating through Ichigo's very soul. "What is this power?"
Ichigo then showed his power when he lunged into the air again and slashed at Belphemon, who in turn, tried to protect himself with his left arm, however, Kurata was left speechless as not only did Ichigo break through Belphemon's gauntlet, but also cut through his entire arm, Belphemon causing to roar out in pain as his arm turned into data particles.
It was then Ichigo landed on the ground, in which Belphemon let out an aggressive roar as he fired all the chains wrapped around his right arm, however, Kurata was shocked as Ichigo swung his blade horizontally and destroyed every chain launched at the wielder of Zangetsu, before he lunged at such a speed that he disappeared for a moment, but then appeared before Kurata, which shocked the traitorous researcher as to how fast Ichigo could move as he stared fearfully into Ichigo's Hollow eyes.
But Kurata's shock was further heightened when Belphemon let out another roar of pain, before the top of his head fell off and was then sliced into pieces, before it was turned into data particles, leaving behind a near headless Belphemon.
"Kurata, you're finished." Ichigo told Kurata in a darker voice, however, Kurata only laughed at the Substitute Shinigami, before the traitorous researcher explained in an amused tone. "You still haven't won. So long as Belphemon's data exists I can continue to revive him, making him stronger and stronger every time he is destroyed."
"You're wrong." Ichigo then replied, in which Kurata was about to question how Ichigo, even with his dark power, could defeat a Mega level Digimon that would just revive itself every time it was destroyed, but got his answer when a large gate then arose from the ground, which was covered in chains and large two skeletons on each door, which had bandaged heads and torsos, behind the damaged Belphemon, before the chains broke apart and the gates opened up, revealing an ominous red light, in which Kurata watched in perturbation as a large sword shot out from the gat and stabbed into Belphemon's chest, in which the damaged Mega level Digimon was forcefully dragged within the gates, before they closed and shattered to pieces, which caused Kurata to demand in a nervous tone. "What have you done with my Digimon!?"
"I used the power of my Zanpakutō to send Belphemon to Hell." Ichigo simply replied, which caused Kurata to slowly step back and question fearfully. "H...Hell?"
"That's right. In my world I kill creatures known as Hollows who are then purified by my Zanpakutō and sent to the afterlife, however, those Hollows that can't be purified are sent to Hell. And from what Marcus and his friends told me, Belphemon lives only to kill and destroy and was therefore was sent to Hell for his evil." Ichigo told Kurata, before he began to slowly walk toward the fear filled researcher before he said. "And now, your time is up."
"Stay away from me!" Kurata pleaded in a fear filled tone, as he began to step back away from Ichigo, as he no longer had Belphemon to hide behind, however, as Kurata continued to back away, he was unaware that a void had opened up that belonged to the Champion Hunter, until it was too late.
"Help me! Please, take pity and save me!" Kurata begged, as he was hanging on the edge of the Champion Hunter's void, as he could feel himself being dragged within.
"Sorry." Ichigo said, before the Hollow Mask on his face dispersed, in which his face was then revealed and his voice returned to normal, as he turned around, placed his Zanpakutō back in the sheath on his back and walked away, told Kurata. "But you said I should stay away from you."
It was as Ichigo went to check on Orihime that he heard Kurata's screams emit from the dark red void, as he was forcefully dragged within and placed back in the Digital World, which to him was his own Hell, in which Ichigo gently brought the owner of Shun Shun Rikka into a sitting position and smiled as Orihime slowly opened her eyes, before she smiled back at him and then the orange haired pair engaged in a loving kiss.
However, their show of love was interrupted when the pair were taken out of the arena by dark red energy.
