let the story begin
Destiny Hearts
Ichigo was falling. He was falling through the sky, soaring through pass memories of his life... the death of his mother... his first encounter with Rukia... gaining his shinigami powers... losing his powers. All pass memories on why he always wanted power since his mothers death.
'Were am I?... and why am I falling?' Ichigo thought. He couldn't move whatsoever no matter how hard he tried. Still... for some odd reason something kept him from panicking as though this was natural... suddenly he felt his head it water. He continued to fall as though he was soaring through the air. As he neared the rapidly approaching ground, he began to slow. He took it upon himself to righted his body.
Ichigo took a deep breath and was surprised he could breathe at all. He remembered something similar to being able to breath in water in his inner world when he was trying to learn the Saigo no Getsuga Tensho from Tensa Zangetsu. All he could see is nothing but darkness for miles, he looked down to see he was standing on a strange black surface. He took a step forward and tensed as thousands of doves flew off, revealing a circular, stained-glass platform. Upon it laid an image of Rukia in a beautiful white dress surrounded by snowflakes.
'Is that... Rukia?' he's eyes narrowed, he look around. "What the hell is this?" he asked the surrounding darkness. "Where the hell am I?"
"The Protector... one who protects and locks away darkness" a sudden voice called, catching the young shinigami off guard. Ichigo narrowed his eyes more, on instint he reached for Zangetsu but curse when he found his partner wasn't on his back, he should have remebered he lost his powers a year ago. He looked over himself and was surprise to see that he was in his shinigami form, he also seem to have some upgrades to it as well. He seem to have a thicker rosy strap across on his chest, he also has four black vertical lines on his forearms and black bands with white ends crossing his chest, wrist, he looked down to see that they were on his ankles as well. he felt around his neck to see that he a similar bands aournd his neck and collars, he was also amazed that he could feel a bit of spiritual pressure.
'It can't be!' he thought in amazement.
There is no time to be angry or shocked young one.
You must be strong
Your true destiny as a Protector as finally been set for you
'What the hell is she or he talking about? What true destiny?' Ichigo thought, getting out of his surprise state at hearing the voie again, he wasn't in the least bit intimidated by the bodliess voice, he had heard far worst from random hollows. He close his eyes and tried to feel any unfamilar reiatsu(spiritual pressure), he sightly cursed when he couldn't feel nothing at all. He made a mentally note to get teaching's from that bastard Uryuu.
Suddenly, three pedestals appeared before him, each bearing an item.
"... Step forward" the bodliess voice commanded. Ichigo ignored the voice and observed what was on each pedestal before he made a move that might cost him. The first pedestal on the left had a staff with a star on the top, second in the middle was a sword with a yellow cross guard and black handle, the last pedestal bore a red shield with a inscrption of a mouse on it. "Power as always slept deep within you. If you give it form... It will give you strength... choose well."
"What the hell is that suppose to mean?"
"Exactly as I said it, choose well"
Ichigo cursed the voice mentally before looking at each weapon curiouly before stepping forward to examine each one more closely, he step toward the staff and pick it up.
The power of the mystic, inner strength, a staff of wonder, ruin, wise, clever, and ever so curious; is this the power you seek?
Ichigo stepped back deciding to check all of his other choices before coming to a decision, he turn toward the sword and pick it up.
The power of the warrior, invincible courage, a sword of terrible destruction,powerful, wild, unmatched; is this the power you seek?
Lastly, he checked the shield.
The power of the guardain, kindness to aid friends, a shield to repel all, protects all which is precious; is this the power you seek?
Ichigo put the shield back on the pedestal and step back, considering each of his choices.
Take your time, but know that there is one of these three powers that symbols what you and your soul are? Choose well and know that you'll have to give up one of these power in exchange.
'Power that symbols my soul? Does it mean me, Zangesu and my Hollow?" Ichigo thought hard on this. Each power that was shown to him showed he, Zangetsu, and his hollow a each of their personality. Wonder, inner strength, wise, sword of terrible destruction, invincible courage, powerful, clever, shield to repel all; each one of these were what he though symboled Zangetsu. Ruin, Invincible courage, powerful, wild, clever, wise; these are what symboled his inner hollow. Inner strength, invincible courage, powerful, wild, kindness to aid friends, protects which is precious, shield to repel all; each symbol what he stood for.
Each symbol what his soul was, so what should he choose? He took a step forward and chose the sword... the path of a warrior.
Now chose the power you must give up
Ichigo picked the staff.
You have chosen the power of the warrior and given up the power of mystic; is this the form you choose?
Ichigo answered without any hesitation." Yes!"
The sword in Ichigo's hand suddenly disappeared and the pedestal he was standing on fell through the glass platform, which caused the picture of Rukia to shatter. With a startled cry, Ichigo tumbled down into the dark abyss... after falling for a few minutes he slowly landed on top of a new stain-glass platform which had a portrait of a dark skin woman with dark purple hair tied into a ponytail wearing a black sleeveless dress. Behind her was a field of beautiful roses, the edge of the protrait seem to have green vines.
"Yoruichi" Ichigo said, recognizing one of his sensei's
You now have the power to fight!
" Fight what? Were the hell his Rukia and Yoruichi you bastard!" Ichigo snapped.
Unknown to Ichigo, the darkness around him started moving before taking a small form. Finally feeling something odd behind him, he turn around and his eyes went wide in shock. Standing just a few feet away from Ichigo seem to be small inky black creatures with glowing bright yellow eyes that reminded him of hollow's. The dark creature moved closely while acting cautiously with the young man before getting ready to pounce on the boy.
Just then, his right hand suddenly shoots up with a will of its own, and clench into a fist. A flash of blue light, he felt something familar but a bit different settle in his hands. Without even bothering to look, Ichigo dodge the small creatures pounce and brought what ever he had down upon it, cleaving it in two with one strong strike. Once the small creature was defeated, he took a moment to examine his weapon, his eyes widen in complete shock at seeing it.
It was Zangetsu, but like him, its appearance had change drasticly. Zangetsu now had a silver hilt with gray-wrappings and a short length black chain at its base. The blade itself was now slightly reshaped, curving inwards at the backside of the tip similar to a trench knife, it also seem to be a bit taller, standing at a hieght of 1.76 now then what it was at 1.75. Ichigo examine Zangetsu's new look in complete awe.
What happen to you Zangetsu?
"Zanpakuto" the unknown voice spoke. "The orginal key to the door of light and darkness and the creator of the Keyblade."
'What the hell? Creator of the Keyblade?" Ichigo thought, he was now confused at what the voice was talking about. Three more creatures suddenly appeared surrounding him
"Damn it!" The newly powered shinigami cursed as he raised Zangetsu and rushed the first creature, quickly killing it before it had a chance to attack. The other two were already converging on Ichigo, but the newly power shinigami quickly evaded by using a quick shunpo( flash step) to reappear next to the edge of the platform behind him. One of the two remaining creatures leapt at him, but Ichigo beheaded it with a well time cleave while the third and last jump toward him... however Ichigo twisted his body in a full ciricle and cleave it in two from the waist before it had a chance to land a attack.
"What the hell were those things?"
Hearing poping noises, he turn around to see about six new figures surrounding him. These new figure were slighty taller then the small black creatures, they seem to wear what look like silver white jumpsuits, were the mouth was were it was unzipped to show nothing. They also seem to have no bone funtion in their bodies with the way they were able to move.
You are in danger. What will you do?
Ichigo cultched Zangetsu tightly in his hand and readed himself for anything. One of the white things seem to bend its body forward before flipping itself forward in a pounce toward the young shinigami. Ichigo quickly step left, dodging the things attack, he brought Zangetsu down and quickly turn back toward the rest, not even bothering to see if the one he cut was dead. Not giving the things a chance to attack, Ichigo shunpo infront of two more, Zangetsu already in midswing. One leapt at his back, seeing the opening to attack, but Ichigo quickly turn around and caught the thing in his hand before tossing it with all his might into the dark abyss. The last two left seem to circle Ichigo before attack, but were quickly cut down from two strong swings of Zangetsu.
Shouldering Zangetsu, he looked around to see none of the white creature left. "Well that was easy if I do say so myself."
A moment later a large brown decorated door appeared in the center of the platform . Ichigo turn around and examine the door, he walk toward the door attempting to open it, but a blinding light consumed Ichigo, instanlty transporting him to another small pocket dimension where he found himself standing on Sokyoku hill, the same place were he rescued Rukia and defeated Byakuya. Standing to his far off left, his right and the directly in front of him were people from his pass.
To his left was a young man wearing a large over coat with white hair and red ruby eyes. To his right was a man that was slighty taller the the other, he was wearing a white sleeveless jacket with white hakama pants on, his wild hair was bright blue along with his eyes. However directly infront of him was something he never thought he would see again! Standing directly infront of him dressed in a all white jacket and white-hakama, he had a small smile on his face and his brown eyes twickled in mischiefed.
Aizen
The door willl not open yet, but I wish to know more about you
The day of destiny is both very far and very near to you
'Why does it keep talking in damn riddles?' Ichigo sighed heavily as he approched the white haired man: Jin Kariya
"What are you afraid of?"
"What am I afraid of?" Ichigo repeated the question and thought about it for a few moments. "I fear that I won't be able to protect my friends and family."
"Is that really something to be afraid of?" The man said before fading away. Ichigo stood there for a second before walking over to the next person, a man who had a strong rivaly against him... Grimmjow Jaegeraquez.
"What do you want out of life?"
Ichigo took a few moments to consider an answer. " I really don't know what I want!"
"Are you sure about that? Look within your heart and soul and you will find your answer."
Thinking on his words for a moment, Ichigo offered a new answer. "To always have the power to protect my friends and family."
"Everything seem to revolve around your family and friends doesn't it?" Grimmjow said before he to faded away.
Ichigo turn away and approched Sosuke Aizen
"What is most important to you?"
"My bond with Zangetsu and my hollow and my friends and family are what is important to me."
"You really care for you family and friends don't you?" Aizen asked before fading away.
You have chosen your form; your journey will began at the black of night
Another blinding light overtook Ichigo, he reappeared on top of another stain-glass paltform, but this time the platform showed a protrait of an older woman with long orange hair wearing a red longsleeve shirt and a long shirt,In her hand was a small ornage hair boy. Behind them was a field of pink sakura pedals, he was shocked as he reconized who it was.
'Is that Mom and me?' Ichigo thought
He suddenly curse when five more of the black creatures appeared surrounding him, Ichigo held his ground and unsheathed Zangetsu from his back. Ichigo moved in quickly and cut down the first creature before killing another before he could join in to help its comrade. As three more black creature appeared to reinforce their fallen kin, Ichigo fought off the three creatures as one leapt at him from behind. Ichigo was able to sense that the creature was behind him , he turn around quickly and swung Zangetsu like a baseball bat, cleaving the two creature in two halfs.
Bringing Zangetsu back around, he impaled another creature through the head before ripping the blade out of the dying creature's head and cleaving through another target. Ichigo turn aournd to see the remaining three creatures charging toward him. Jumping back a bit to maintain some space between him and the trio of enemies, Ichigo swung Zangetsu in the face of one of the three killing it . The second jumped forward, attempting to avenge its fallen kin by jumping at Ichigo who simply shunpo behind it and killing it with a thrust of his gray-wrappings around Zangetsu's hilt materialize, Ichigo grabed a hold of it and threw Zangetsu into the creatures's head, killing it instanly.
Well done... the door awaits you
A stain-glass staircase appeared leading across the black abyss to another station in the distance. With no were else to go Ichigo made his way to the platform, walking across the abyss via the stairs. The minute both of his feet were planted on the patform the stain-glass stairs disappeared.
Taking a moment to gaze down at the portrait on the platform he was currently standing on, he was confused at what he saw cause he never remember meeting none of the girls that were on the portrait. The most nostcible girl, had light auburn hair, crystal blue/indigo eyes, a pale complexion , and a necklace with a sliver bead. She looked around the age of 14, she's wearing a white top with a black one underneath(the black one shows at her collarbone and at the hem) which slightly exposes her navel. Purple biker shorts underneath a purple skirt with a blue belt, and a bit big in Ichigo's point, white slip-on shoes with purple caps. She also wearing a black chocker, a yellow wristband as well as purple arm band on her left arm and a pair of bracelets on her right arm; Ichigo also notice that there were six small portraits of other girls he never met circling around the aburn haired girl. In the back of the girls, seem to be a strange large white door whit a huge heart on it.
Seven Princess of Hearts
The key to Kingdom Hearts
'These girls are the seven princess of hearts? What does that mean? and this Kingdom Hearts the voice said? What does it all mean?" Ichigo thought.
Your final task is now at hand... Now face your fircest enemy...
Ichigo looked around alarmed after hearing that, but only saw nothing but darkness. He looked behind him and saw nothing but his shadow... wait... his eyes narrowed at seeing his shadow seem to be getting larger! It suddenly grew two yellow eyes that glared hatefully at him. The shadow formed into and enormous figure with snake-like hair, the things size was almost at the same hieght as a Menos Grande. Ichigo grip Zangetsu and took a cauios step back.' My fiercest enemy his... myself?'
Don't be afraid... Ichigo scuffed at that, he wasn't scared in the least! He was just a bit tense after seeing his own shadow grow into a 15 towery tall humniod creature. A white light falsh in fron of him, making him cover his eyes for a second. After the light died down, Ichigo stared at a floating sliver heart shape crystal attached to a glod chain. Taking the necklace in his hands, he examine it to see that the heart was crimson in the middle. It was not fancy, but beautiful nonetheless. It seem to remind him of his mother and family. Face your fear and stand forward... you are the Protector of the Princess Of Hearts.
Ichigo nodded, feeling a strong resolve sweal up in him, he palce the necklace around his neck and unsheated Zangetsu. He stood ready waiting for the large creature before him to attack. The large creature attack, sending a punch at him, Ichigo was surprise at the things speed but dodge it nonetheless. The shinigami took the change to attack its unprotected face, he unleached muitlpe combos. The large creature roared in pain, it then reared its body back and the center of its chest where the heart shape hole was at began charging dark energy. Large dark balls of energy began raining down upon Ichigo who dodge them as best as he could, after a moment of dodging, the creature seem to become tired and fall onto its knees.
Ichigo took a battle stance and took a deep breath, holding Zangetsu in both heands, he raised the large zanpakuto into the air. It was covered in a large blue arua. Ichigo swung Zangetsu as hard as he could toward the creatures face.
"Gestuga Tensho!"
The large beam of crescent energy race forward, tearing up the paltform below it before slaming in the creatures face. On contact, a large explosion engulfed the huge creatures which was roaring in pain. The paltform which they were standing on shattered, sending both pumbling into the darkness below. The large creature seem to growl at Ichigo before throwing a punch in his direction, Ichigo twisted his body to avoid the swing and ramed Zangetsu into its arm as hard as he could.
"RRRGGGGGH!"
The creature swung its damage right arm upward, flinging Ichigo off it. Ichigo regain his blance in the air and shot forward as fast as he could toward the creature to finish it. The creature seeing Ichigo's charge, began gathering energy in between his hands above its head. Gathering enough energy until it was satisfie it was enough, the creature rear its arms back before throwing the huge ball of dark energy as hard as it could.
"Damn it that things huge!' Ichigo postion Zangetsu infront of him and imbrace himself for impact. The huge ball of energy salm into Zangetsu, pushing Ichigo upward into the air, gritting his teeth and pushing as hard as he could to hold the energy back. Ichigo began gather a large amount of reiatsu into Zangetsu which covered both his zanpakuto and himself.
"AAAAAAHHHHH!" With a huge war cry, Ichigo swung Zangetsu upward, cleaving the huge ball of darkness in two, causing a huge explosion to occur. Ichigo shunpo infront of the creatures face and stab Zangestu right in between its eyes, the creature roared in pain and began trying to claw Ichigo off its face but Ichigo held on strong. Unknown to the two, another platform was quickly apporaching , after a few seconds pass they both slam hard into platform. Cracking it slightly on impact.
Grabing Zangetsu with both hands, Ichigo charge as much reiatsu as he could into Zangetsu's tip. With a war cry, Ichigo unleached an enormous Gestuga Tensho into the beast head, energy ribbed through the creatures body before expolded, shattering the platform below them. Ichigo fell, unable to move from using the rest of his reiatsu on the Gestuga Tensho, he clucth Zangetsu tightly in his right hand and close his eyes.
