Shifters
Summary: Mythicals, bounty hunters, and universal travel. Humans live on various planets, and mythicals live amongst the humans. Some spread out so wide that even drifters can't even hope to dream of meeting one. However, what would happen when a certain blue-haired hunter and a silver-haired hunter finds rather unique mythicals?
DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN BLEACH
WARNING: YOAI (BOYXBOY), ROMANCE (BOYXGIRL)
I'm hoping to make this a grimmxichi, arashixgin, and other side pairings.
This story is my first attempts at writing a fanfiction and yaoi, so please be lenient. I don't have anything pre-written so I have no deadlines for my chapters.
Hollow Ichigo (Shiro, Hichigo, etc.) is going to be Ichigo's albino twin brother. I'm going to call him Arashi (storm) since his character tends to be violent like a bad storm. So, Kurosaki Arashi is the younger twin to Ichigo in this story.
In this story, Ichigos' dad is on Mars.
Ichigos' eyes change color. When he's mad they turn red, when he's determined they're blue, and when normal they're a soft brown.
Arashis' eyes are the same gold on black but they also change color depending on his mood. When he's mad they take on a pale yellow, when he's happy they're a warm yellow-orange.
Chapter one
Chance Encounter
Grimmjows' POV
Humans that can turn into one animal that resembles them most, are considered the rarest of all the mythical creatures. These are called Shifters. They're said to be even more rare to find than angels, despite the fact they're also said to travel in packs of anywhere between 2 to 20 members. The only way one can hope to find these certain mythicals are to look for animals with abnormal coloration, though that's not always a definite. The coloration of the Shifters' form is the natural coloration of their hair. Because of this, they tend to blend in more often than not unless they just have an abnormal hair color.
That's the rumor anyways. Nobody has ever seen any 'round here, so no-one actually knows. But, there have said to have been recent citing on Mars away from all the encampments. So I, Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez, along with my partner, Nnoitra Gilga, have been assigned to check if this was true. Which is why we're currently glued to the side of a building, watching in disbelief as a group of 5 humans and 7 animals walk through the encampment like they were the only ones in the place.
The 5 humans varied greatly in appearance. One was well-built and fairly tall, about 6 feet, had brown eyes, long crimson hair that was in a high ponytail and tribal tattoos over his body. He was wearing black khakis, deep burgundy tank top, black vest, and a bandanna the same as his shirt. Another one looked like a kid. I wouldn't even say that he was at 4 and a half feet. He had turquoise eyes and short white spiky hair and his skin looked like it had small patches of scales. His clothes consisted of a plain black t-shirt and blue jeans. He also had one of the animals, a small black weasel with dark gray eyes, peeking over his left shoulder. The next one was relatively shorter than the first one but taller than the other one. He looked to be a little over 5 and a half feet. He had blue eyes behind rectangular glasses, raven-colored chin-length hair, pale skin, and pointed ears. He wore white slacks and a white long-sleeved shirt, both with blue highlights, that only made his pale skin look paler. He also had a long bow draped over a shoulder and a full quiver strapped over his back. Beside him was a very busty woman who was about 5 feet. She had brown eyes and long burnt orange hair. She had dark orange butterfly wings that were folded down. When they were fully extended, because she appears easily distracted and that caused her to flutter her wings momentarily, they were about a foot over her head and went down to about mid-calf. The ends of her wings looked to be torn, but I guess that could just be the type of wings they were. She also had what looked like floral hair clips at the tips of her wings. She was wearing a coral-colored long skirt and a peach-colored long-sleeved shirt. Slightly behind her was another woman, though not as busty. She was about 5 feet and had blue eyes and black hair that was short and spiky at the top and went down a little below mid-back. Her nails looked a lot like talons that were clear in color. She wore black jeans and a dark blue form-fitting tank top.
Next are the animals. One was the weasel that was perched on the kids shoulder. Another was a small rabbit that was light brown and had dark brown eyes. It also had a red strawberry clip slightly behind the base of its' right ear. It was currently asleep, or at least I think it's asleep, on a lithe tiger. The tiger was one of normal color but instead of it being colored in black stripes it was a slightly darker orange than its' fur. It also had warm brown eyes. Behind and slightly to the right of the tiger was a white hyena. It had black spots and gold on black eyes, which in my opinion is freaky as hell, and it was laughing manically. 'I think that laughs is stuck in my head now' I think as I shudder. Anyway, near the red-haired man there was an elegant looking black swan. It had a white mask and violet eyes. Next to the swan, was a wolf. If the swan was elegant then the wolf was more majestic. It had slate gray eyes and its' coat was solid black. Finally near the end of the group was a bison. It had brown eyes and a brown coat and it had something that resembled saddle packs draped over its' sides. The only odd thing about the bison was that it had a tattoo on its' left shoulder that read Amore e Morte.
Suddenly, the weasel that was on the white-haired boys' shoulder looked over at us. It starred for what felt like forever, which was only five seconds, before it leapt over the boys' shoulder to the tiger. It jumped slightly to bite the tigers' left ear and then proceeded to point its' paw in our direction.
The tiger let out a small yelp before looking at the weasel then at us. There was just something about those eyes that seemed human for some reason. It continued to stare at us and then it let out a low , almost warning sounding, growl. This, of course, caused everyone to freeze and/or tense.
"Ichigo?" The red-head male called. "What's wrong?"
The tiger, Ichigo I guess, just growled louder and its' tail started twitching. The hyena acted first by getting the weasel on its' back and picking the slightly shaking rabbit up with its' jaw and then started to run towards the end of the encampment. The group looked between Ichigo and the hyena and followed after the hyena. Several minutes passed after the group left and Ichigo was still here, growling softly. After about another minute of soft growling, Ichigo started to slowly back away towards the end the group had left through, and that's when all hell broke loose.
Everything happened so fast that I didn't even catch sight of who shot the gun, but in one moment, Ichigo was slowly backing away and the next he was laying on the ground with a small bloodied hole in his left shoulder. After that, I'm just gonna say I was hallucinating no mater how many other people say they saw the same thing. Two dragons and a baboon with a snake tail appeared.
One dragon was made out of pure ice (Hyōrinmaru that's found in Toshiros' inner world). It was like a giant twenty-foot snake with wings. It was currently towering and growling threateningly over a man who I'm assuming was the moron who shot the gun. The other dragon was composed of scales and feathers and was jet black (Saphira from Eragon but black). It had a slender neck and a long tail and its' wings were about the size of its' torso (shoulder to base of tail). Feathers covered its' wings, a little of its' neck, that made it look like it had a main, and the tip of its' tail, which when in a certain light made it look like fur. It had two horns on its' head with spikes running along its' jaw line. This one was hovering over Ichigo in the process of trying to pick him up. The last one, which I'm guessing is a chimera, was a blood-red baboon and snake with black tribal markings across its' shoulders and head (Zabimaru with different colors). This one was doing the same as the first dragon, but the baboon part was just staring menacingly while the snake hissed vehemently. After the black dragon collected Ichigo, they all disappeared like they were never there in the first place. Several long silent minutes stretched by before Nnoitra spoke to break the silence.
"Was that..." he trailed off trying to find what to say.
"Yeah, I think that was them. Should we follow or go back to base and report?"
"Go back."
"HAHAHAH yeah, go back it is. I sure as hell ain't goin after them. I value my life. Besides, we were only ordered to find not to bring back. Perfect loophole."
"You're insane. You know that? But seriously, I thought shifters only traveled with other shifters. They had two dragons, a chimera, a fairy, and an elf. How we gonna 'splain that Grimmjow?"
"Fuck if I know! Lets just get back and report. The longer we keep 'em waitin, the more bitchy they'll be."
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. I wouldn't say tha' 'round the boss. Ya know how he gets 'bout language. Now let's go. I 'gree wit' ya."

3rd POV
"Welcome back. I trust you didn't come back empty handed, did you?" A smooth voice rang through the large room. Eleven pairs of eyes locked on the two forms kneeling in front of the one who spoke.
"We're back. We've gotten the information you asked for, Sir" a lanky man spoke up. His height reaches to about seven and a half feet. He has shoulder length black hair and a black strap that serves as an eyepatch over his left eye while his other one was a dark gray. He wore a white deep v-neck T-shirt and black slacks along with black tennis shoes.
"Let's hear it then, Nnoitra" the voice replied.
"There were indeed shifters on Mars. Seven that we saw."
"That's a pretty small number if those rumors are correct. May I ask why you didn't see fit to invite them here?"
The two kneeling looked at each other warily before the other of the two spoke.
"It would have been very difficult if not impossible to do so with only the two of use, Sir" the broad one said. His height was about six feet and he had light blue hair with his eyes being only a couple shades darker. He wore a white button upped shirt with the first three buttons undone and black jeans along with a pair of black flipflops.
"What do you mean, Grimmjow? Two topped trained bounty hunters can't convince seven shifters in their animal forms to come visit?"
The two looked at each other again before sighing and continuing.
"No sir. That was not what we said. It's simply going to be difficult since they seem to be wary of other people and there's more than just shifters in their pack."
"Please explain."
Another look was shared and they started to explain what had happened.

Grimmjows' POV
"I see. That is odd indeed. Can you think of any reason why that tiger suddenly became wary of you two?"
"No sir. We glued ourselves to the buildings like everyone else had done. The group wasn't hostile until the tiger was shot."
"I see. Thank you Grimmjow, Nnoitra. Nnoitra, you can leave."
"Yes sir."
"Grimmjow, I would like you to go back, but this time I want Gin to go with you. Understand?"
'Ugh, not Gin. Why me? I haven't done anything to piss Aizen off lately... have I?'
Sousuke Aizen, my boss. Tends to wear black business suits and is the same height as me, brown hair and equally brown eyes. Tends to act nice and well-mannered, but you never want to piss this man off. He can make you suffer the worst possible way without lifting so much as a finger. This, of course, leads to his second in command, Gin Ichimaru AKA the silver fox. He's not a shifter as far as I know of, but if he was then thats what he would be. He's dressed in a red long-sleeved shirt, with the sleeves being a little longer than needed, blue jeans and white tennis shoes. He's also the same height as me, silver hair and sky blue eyes, if you can ever see them. He normally keeps them closed to slits with that creepy ass grin he always wears. He's a complete asshole and he does everything in his power to try and drive you insane. He also has this nasty habbit of popping up out of no where (in my opnion, to try and give you a damn heartattack)and easdropping on any conversation he can get close enough to.
'Why me?'
"Yes sir, I understand."
"Good. You'll be leaving in the morning so be sure to pack for a few months at least. I'll have Gin come pick up when it's time for you two to leave. Your dismissed."
"Yes sir."
'WHY GIN?'
I hope ya like it.
Can ya guess who the five humans are? What about the seven animals? Next chapter will be Ichigos' POV.
