The Blood Moon Reaper (The blade, Ketsueki tsuki)

Chapter 1: Enter Shinku

Shinku Kirai was floating in a gigantic test tube of sorts. The twelfth division had just found him yesterday. They only were able to extract his name from his broken body before he fell into a wounded sleep. His sword was in a tube next to his. Nemu studied him while he floated half naked in the liquid. Kurotsuchi tapped away at his devices cranking up the healing doses. Plenty of the other soul reapers had stopped by to see the beautiful man, sleeping by himself. His long brown hair was suspended above his strong shoulders. The day was finally here after three days of intensive repair. They day he would awaken from his injuries. Usually the twelfth division didn't enjoy peering eyes but today was the exception. All of the soul reapers were gathered to meet or destroy the strange man. With the clamor it was hard to even think let alone hear a speaker. But when the twelfth captain stepped up, everyone shut the hell up. His voice cut the air,

"Now let's get to the main attraction.'

The remote in his hand clicked and drained the liquid. With another click the tubes opened letting Shinku step out. He glanced upon the crowd only to say,

"Who the hell are all of you?"

Kurotsuchi clapped his hands together and stepped up to him,

"We have restored you to acceptable health. To be honest you were on the brink for quite some time. We are the Soul Society. I have been permitted to let you join our ranks if you so desire. But we will destroy you if you decide to attack us."

Shinku thought for about a minute before speaking to the crowd,

"I will join you."

The crowd relaxed as he reached for his blade. He was led by Nemu to his temporary room. They gave him the standard soul reaper robes. He slipped on the soft cloth and heard a knock at his door. He opened it to see a short black haired woman standing there. She extended her hand and said,

"Hello my name is Rukia. It is nice to meet you."

She had a smile on her face as he gripped her hand and said,

"The feeling is mutual. My name is Shinku Kirai. I don't really know what to do. I would like to get some training in but I-"

"You what?"

"Damn I forgot about her. Rah is going to be pretty mad about this."

"Who's Rah?

"She is my protector when I am not in the world of the living. See I am human."

"What? Then how do you get here?"

"Uh, well I take a pill and then my soul comes out of my body."

"Wow. So wait, where do you live?

"Karakura Town actually. Wait I knew you looked familiar. We go to school together."'

"It is actually my clone that usually goes to school for me."

"That makes sense. Usually I have Rah help with my work. She doesn't mind so I don't either. It was nice meeting you Rukia, but I was wondering if I could do some training with someone."

A male's voice came from behind Rukia. The man's hair was red and tied back,

"If it's training you are looking for I'll help. Name's Renji. I see you are gabbing with Rukia. Do you guys know each other or something?"

"Yes actually. Rukia goes to my school in Karakura Town. But never mind that right now, when do we start training?"

"Right now."
