The False Shinigami
The wind was blowing softly over the trees in the Soul Society, spring was fast approaching and the residents of the Rukongai district were very eager to start enjoying the end of the cold and hard winter. Travelling through the throngs of hurried souls was a lone Soul Reaper, a lieutenant no less, keeping an eye on the local area and making sure nothing was out of the ordinary was the main task but for this Soul Reaper the main task would soon become unimportant.
Renji Abarai was walking through the prosperous and wealthy district 3 of the Rukongai. "Man before I became a Soul Reaper I never would of thought this place would of existed near the slums of district 78" commented Renji quietly to himself while rubbing his neck. After about 20 minutes Renji was becoming bored and decided to return to the Seireitei but suddenly a scream echoed through the entire street causing Renji to turn around "That scream it was a woman" exclaimed Renji before running off in the direction of the scream. Turning the corner he found the source of the scream a female noblewoman was on the floor and cowering for her life, Renji went over to her to see if she was okay. "Hey maam are you okay?" Asked Renji the woman looked at him "Go away, leave me alone you and your friend!" screamed the woman before collapsing "Hey lady…" shouted Renji suddenly a huge blast of spiritual pressure cut him off, almost causing him to stagger "What the hell!" shouted Renji trying to locate where the source of the pressure was before realizing it was just behind him.
Turning around Renji saw a man with light brown, about the same height as him and wearing clothes which were obviously not associated with the Soul Society but were more likely from the world of the living, but the thing that really made Renji's stomach drop was the fact the man was wearing a hollow mask. "A hollow mask?" whispered Renji before regaining his composure and facing the man "Hey who the hell are you?" shouted Renji to the man who did not answer "Did you attack this woman?" asked Renji again this time the man looked at him with piercing blue eyes and replied with a strange gurgle to his voice which Renji realized was an effect of the mask "No I did not, she was there at the wrong time". This threw Renji even more "What do you mean by that?" asked Renji but this time the man walked a bit closer to him "Are you a Soul Reaper?" asked the man to which Renji immediately replied "I am Renji Abarai, lieutenant of squad 6 of the thirteen court guard squads" The man started to walk closer to Renji again but this time while looking up at the sky "A lieutenant huh?" asked the man before sighing "Just my luck to run into someone who will be missed" Renji was confused for a moment before he realized what that meant, He was going to kill him, wasting no time Renji pulled out his zanpaktou " Roar Zabimaru!" shouted Renji before his sword morphed into a segmented blade with large protrusions on each segment, the man just looked at him "Skikai huh?" enquired the man " very well then I shall engage you in battle" The man then raised his arm and waved it in front of his face "But since you have introduced yourself then so shall I" When the hand moved past his face the hollow mask dissolved revealing a man of no more than 18 but who had a look of grim determination on his face " My name is Robert Parr"
"Robert Parr huh? Well I'll be sure to remember that when I'm writing the report on this and how I won" Boasted Renji before charging at Robert. Robert raised his arms and caught Renji's blade before it could hit him. "What!" gasped Renji but before he could react Robert placed his other hand on Renji's chest and said "Hado 33 Sokatsui" Renji's eyes widened "Kido!" thought Renji before a wide blast of blue light engulfed Renji.
Robert just watched as Renji fell to the ground, before turning away but before he could walk away Renji stood up albeit a bit gingerly "You didn't think that would stop me did you?" asked Renji "It'll take more than that to kill me" shouted Renji grabbing hold of his zanpaktou "Bonkai!" shouted Renji sending a blast of spiritual energy and causing Zabimaru to warp and enlarge becoming this large snake like creature "Hihio Zabimaru" Renji announces, Robert just looks at the monster with out shifting his expression at all "Well are you afraid yet? Asks Renji mockingly but Robert did not reply but just continued staring at him "Not talking huh?" laughs Renji before taking the now bone handle of his zanpaktou and raising it up above his head ready to swing. Suddenly a flash went right by Renji before he realized what had happened he suddenly bent over in pain, and put his hand to his chest, pulling it back he saw blood "the bastard had sliced right through him" Though Renji as he fell to the floor again, but this time Robert walked up to him "Your actions were incredibly stupid I knew you were alive and I was going to leave you but since you activated your bonkai you put this entire district in peril and so I had to stop you" Renji just looked up at Robert while he was talking and now asked him "What are you?" Robert simply looked away and said nothing before starting to walk away "Wait!" shouted Renji "Where are you going?" asked Renji this time Robert answered but without looking at Renji "I am going to the Seireitei" replied Robert "What! Why?" Asked Renji but Robert did not reply then he disappeared flash stepping away from Renji who let his head fall as he entered unconsciousness.
