Author's Note: Yes. I am writing a story outside of the Bleach fandom. I checked, and hell hasn't quite frozen over just yet, but it was getting a bit chilly by the time I left.

This is actually a story I've wanted to write for a long time, but I held off because of the length and the depth involved. All of the hype about the anime reboot and the Chimera Ant Arc ending, however, finally gave me the inspiration to just go for it. Finally graduating might have helped a little too. Maybe.

And so, without further ado, I give you the first chapter of Saints and Sinners, a gang war AU starring the fabulous four that I hope you can all enjoy.
