Lighting The Darkness

Chapter one: New lieutenant?

It was another day in the squad two barracks, Soifon was making her rounds when she saw her worthless excuse of a lieutenant Marechiyo Omaeda sitting on his fat ass stuffing his face with rice crackers, with a sigh Soifon shunpo behind him and kick him throught a door to the trainning field.

"WHO THE HELL DARES TO KIC-" He shut his mouth once he saw Soifon.

"Omaeda, what were you doing." she asked with venom dripping from every word.

"Oh nothing Captin, nothing at all." He stated

"Oh nothing you say? well thats not good, you worthless piece of trash HOW dare you slack in you duty as my lieutenant, You better pray to god, that there is not a more suited shinigami coming from the academy today or else I'll personally kick your fat, greedy, lazy ass out of my divison, do you understand!"

"Y-y-yes Captin!" He shouted.

"WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR, TRAIN DAMNIT!" She said as she left.

'I'm hoping for a worth wild shinigami, to replace that fat mistake today.' She thought

A few hours after drilling the troops and beating Omaeda, the new recurits arrived she look all of them over, nothing specail caught her attention so she addressed them.

"Hello fresh meat, you are all here because you think you want to join the Onmitsukido,
well you can forget it, you spineless pieces of garbage can't possible stand the trainning let alone the missions so those who don't have the resovle to fight and, die leave NOW!"

Once more then half the recuirts left she got down to bussiness.

"Ok everyone pair up with the twelve Onmitsukido memembers and begin the sparr if any of you recuirts win, your in."

She watched on as they all paired up and begun to fight. she had too admit the recuirts did show some skill, but she was curious as to why one wasen't fighting.

"Hey you! recuirt what are you dong fight!" she shouted

"There is no one left to fight." He simple stated

'Hmm he's right there is no one left I wonder could he kick Omaeda's fat ass.'

"Ok then Omaeda get out here!" She shouted.

"Y-y-y-y-yes C-c-c-c-c-captin." He said.

"Fight this recuirt, he dosen't have a partner."

"Ok Captin."

'Ha I can Easily beat a recuirt like this one, then captin will love me again.'

"Prepare yourself you worthless piece of garbage, you must now fight the great and terrible might of me Marec-"

He didn't get to finsh as the recuirt shunpo right infront of him and gave an axe kick to his head, causing him to fall flat on his face. needless to say he didn't even draw his zanpaktou, much less take his hands out of his pockets.

"Oi! what the hell do you think your doing recuirt!"

"My name isn't 'recuirt' its Thanaos Kaizaki.(1)"

"So what, your going to die soon anyway for ruining my beautiful face."

"Right beautiful, maybe I hit him on his head too hard. Maybe you should go to squad four, might have some brain damage."

"Sorry Thanaos no he's always like that."

"Ahh then I'm very sorry captin SOifon, it must be quite hard to deal with him."

"Quite but you grow use to it I suppose."

"Stop talking about me as if I'm not even here."

"Oh your still here?" Thanaos said.

"Thats it CRUSH! GEGETSUBURI!"

Omaeda released his shikai, however Thanaos didn't look impressed, and Soifon look disappointd.

'You can't even beat a recuirt with realease you zanpaktou now thats sad.' Soifon thougt

"GET READY SCUM YOUR DEAD MEAT NOW!"

"Bring it"

Omaeda threw gegetsuburi but Thanaos just shunpo awayed, he threw it again to be met with the same fate, he kept at it for aleast five minutes.

"I hope you don't mind me ending this now."

"HA LIKE YOU COULD!"

Omaeda charged at Thanaos which he didn't flinch when he was a few steps away, Thanaos gave a soild left hook and shattered gegetsuburi, now that Omeada didn't have his zanpaktou any more he grabbed him by his face and threw him across the yard.

"Captin Soifon is that enough?"

"Hmmm not bad, but one more test."

"What?"

"You must hit me once and if you do you can be the lieutenant."

"Ok then lets go."

"Oh before I forget you may use any means to hit me now begin."

Before she had a chance to grab her zanpaktou he was right infront of her with a punch already to strike her. She shunpo away but with him close on her heels, all the other fights ended a while ago, now they were all watching their captin being matched, needless to say they were shocked to say the least. Soifon had to really respect Thanaos for getting her to take the defense for so long but what caught her by surprise was he was even using kido to fight her.

"Bakudo 4, Hainawa" Thanaos said.

"Weak, Thanaos."

What she didn't notice was Thanaos already using another bakudo spell

"Bakudo 9, Horin"

she was caught in a trap to catch her again but he wasen't done yet.

"Bakudo 61 Rikujokoro"

He then used Hado 4 Byakurai to see if that could stop her, sadly no.

"Flash cry" she whispered

"I'd expect nothing less of you Captin Soifon."

"Give your self some credit, you were able to sting so pretty impressive kido for someone just out of the academy."

"Thanks, I hope you don't mind if I end this now Captin, also you might want to release your zanpaktou, too see how many times you can cut me."

"Ok then your on, Sting all Enemies to Death Suzumebachi."

"Let's go then." He put his hand on the hilt and was prepareing to stirke

In a blink of an eye it was over, Thanaos was covered in bee marks.

"Good try Thanaos but you didn't hit me."

"Yes thats true but I aleast cut you uniform, but that dosen't count now does it."

"What do you mean?"

"Look." he pointed to her right side and there was a cut in her uniform.

She look closer and saw she had a very small cut like one of her sting marks, on her side she smirk at this.

'So this is impressive he managed to hit me and keep up with a little more trainning he could very well beat me."

"Ahh Captin Soifon I see you got some new squad memembers."

They all turned and bowed to the person who said that it was none other then Yamamoto head captin of the thirteen court guard. They all respected him.

"Now Captin Soifon tell me, are they good shinigami?"

"Yes, sir they are very good."

"Ahh good I'm glad you like your new squad memembers, now if you don't mind I going back to the first squad for more paper work."

"Umm Head captin sir."

"Yes Captin Soifon?"

"I request a new lieutenant for my squad."

"And who might you suggest."

"This Shinigami here sir."

"Hmmm, whats your name boy."

"Thanaos Kaizaki, sir."

"Hmm do you think you are worthy of being squad two lieutenant, and part of the Onmitsukido, it is not an easy job."

"Yes captin I can only do my best for my squad but I shall try till my last breath."

"Hmmm you do know all lieutenants need to know shikai right."

"Yes sir."

"Can you release you zanpaktou then, and brush your hair out of your eyes or I'll shave you bald like me."

"Yes sir."

Thanaos brushed his hair out of his eyes and everyone even Yamamoto was quite shock to see a pair of pierceing dark blue eyes staring back at them.

"Ok then here we go then."

He took in a breath and exhaled and withdrew his zanpaktou he inhaled then exhaled again.

"Cry Zaibatsu(2)"

Sand kick up covering him up, no one could see what his release look like but when the smoke cleared they saw only a pair of gauntlets and, greaves they look demonic he took a step forward and the air started to spark.

"This is my zanpaktou release since I'm more of a hand to hand combat fighter this work out well now it does have some range attack it can shoot small burst of lightining and also boost my speed quite a bit."

"So Head Captin, does he pass to be my new lieutenant."

"He meets all requirements so just have Omeada hand over the squad two band and its done, congrats lieutenant Thanaos Kaizaki."

"Thank you Head Captin."

Soifon walk over to Thanaos and, told him to follow. they walk over to the body of Omeada and took the band from his shoulder and Thanaos put it on. it kept sliping so he asked if he could get a new one, Soifon said yes and said he could go tomorrow.

"So is there anything else I need to do today or is that it."

"What do you mean?"

"Do I need to do paperwork or, anything."

"You mean you want to help me do paperwork." she asked in shock.

"Yes I'm not a lazy bastard like Omeada now, so why won't I help Soifon."

"Well I just always had to do it myself and now- wait did you just call me Soifon?"

"Yes, why I wasen't?"

"No its ok, and come on and I'll give you some work to do."

"Ok Soifon." He said with a smile.

End chapter 1

(1) I used the name Thanaos becasue I couldn't come up with a better name Kaizaki is just another name I made up.
(2) Cry Zaibatsu means thunder god's fist for the fans of the tekken series you know this one and I figured it fit since his style of fighting is pretty close.
