Crimson Winter

Ichigo Kurosaki, a young shinigami with the desire to protect those he loves.
Has failed...
1 Year ago, Aizen had won the battle in Karakura. He had failed to create the Ōken, but not before killing many of Ichigo's friends as well as Captains and Lieutenants. Before leaving the massacre, Aizen vowed to return and destroy the Soul Society itself.

And now he's returned. He had failed to protect before, but Ichigo has changed since then. Fueled by vengeance, he is no longer the merciful youth from a year ago. Aizen would pay with his life, but will it cost Ichigo his humanity, or would the White Moon's luminescence calm his bloodlust?

The rain shall begin to fall once again...
