Spiritual Emergence

Author's Note: This is a Rewrite to my first ever fanfiction, 'Death and Merging, War and Love'. I hope everyone who read and enjoyed the Original can enjoy this fiction just as much. This Fic will begin with a Prologue just to set up a proper tone for this fic. Also me and my editor aren't sure whose Summary is better so if you please let us know through either a Review or a PM to either one of us, preferable me the author.

Summary (Editor's version with Author Spell Checked): Souls are Eternal, even when destroyed still maintain a presence through another. Some souls have changed into something more, others have been devolved from their original state, while they may split from one another, they are still whole. This is a story explaining souls and the lives in which allows them to thrive. – Rewrite of Death and Merging, War and Love.

Summary (Author's Version): Death is not the end, it is only a beginning of a journey which truly has no end. The soul goes though many changes, some are good and some aren't. Regardless, souls are a keystone of balance. Prepare to witness the beginning of all and embrace what the trueness meanings of the Cycle of Rebirth is. - Revival of 'Death and Merging, War and Love'.

Prologue - The Beginning of All

I might not have been at the very start of the Universe, I do know how and when the birth of Soul was even though it is not the birth of mine...for those of you who haven't figured it out yet. The narration of this Prologue is being done by the all power weapon of Creation, Reitenseigai but since my true name is too long and sometimes hard to pronounce and I'm looking at you, Ichi! I just let people call me Lord Reiten or Reiten-sama. Only my mates or what few people are close to me get the honor of calling me Reiten-kun or just Reiten.

But enough of that. Let's get to the reason you are here.

Billions of years ago, the universe was born, whether it was a big explosion or a deity like myself is clearly debated by your lesser souls. In this variation of the Bleach and Sekirei timelines, it was a huge explosion from another universe and I am blaming while also thanking Beerus the Destoryer. Without him, none of this won't have been brought forth ha ha ha ha ha! Sorry, I haven't been able to kid around in a while so I am taking the fullness advantage though seriously, it was an explosion of an atom and it created the universe full of dust and other crap.

Millions of years later, the earth came to be and in one of the different subspaces that are connected to it, the first soul forms and there it stayed, not sure of what it was supposed to do. Kind of boring though without this solitude, he won't have ever made himself male or made himself some company. He took a piece of himself and from that piece came to be the first female soul. They began to communicate and bond thus before they knew it, they were the first to experience the emotion we know too well as love. Their first time was also the beginning of life in the World of the Living aka Earth.

Are you all still following all of that? Good. Their names are quite similar to deities you may have heard of. The First Soul aka The Spirit King is named Izunagi Hio-sama and the first female formerly the Spirit Queen is called Izunami Hio-sama. Yes, they both deserve my respect which is why I'm using honorifics for them though I call them other things when I'm in person with either one. Holy Bitch is what I call her by the way and I will explain why soon enough. Otherwise, she is know as Mistress Hio. The Mistress and the Spirit King tried for eons to make souls that were more like themselves though for the longest time, they weren't successful so they created existinction of those souls mortal forms. Pretty much, Mistress disliked the Dinosaurs and murdered them...now you are starting to see why I call her a Bitch; it doesn't end there. They finally successed in creating a soul who is much like them, their first son, Tsukasa Hio. The Boy quickly learned that he was unique and he became a man rather quickly much like humans always do, ironically enough, more souls were becoming human shaped, this made the King and Queen happy and for another few eons, they along with their son watched over life and death of all souls. Souls would live for a time in the World of the Living and than they would come to the earlier version of what would become the Soul Society, which really wasn't much since souls weren't originally meant to stay up there, it was a place for them to be judged and sent back to start a new life whether it be as another person or some kind of animal.

One day, the Mistress snuck away and went to the World of the Living. She was curious to see how humans and creatures acted when they are alive. She had gained plenty of new ideas from witnessing how life work up close though her actions would soon cause good and bad changes to the worlds. Of course, she just had to rush back home, never noticing that her very presence has affected a large amount of souls, living or dead. Upon returning, she rushed to her love and she told him of what she saw. The King was mad although he was interested in all of the new techniques for love making she told him about.

So for a hundred years they neglected their duties, and left Tsukasa to watch the once pure heart souls succumb to newly dark emotions and urges. The sins were born during those hundred years and also this was the beginning of my birth. Tsukasa did his best with keeping balance but more and more souls started flooding him with work, too many of them were corrupted by the sins. He was overwhelmed by it all and not having any help from his parents. He finally snapped and his fullness powers exploded from his very being, purifying wicked souls, and destroying any that were too weak to handle his presence. When he calmed down, he saw a new being in front of him, me. At first neither one of us knew what the other was, all we knew is that were looked alike until we shook hands, that moment is the first time I ever took the form of a sword, and I was practically pure silver from the tip of my blade to the butt of my handle. Also ladies, it is as appealing as you are imagining. That moment even developed the Soul Society into a large realm and the gap between the world of the living and there has widen. We didn't care, we were gaining new understandings of everything and so we forced our way into the bed chamber of his parents. His eyes could not handle the sight of what his parents had become for his mother's heart was no longer in her chest and his father had been spilt into two right before him. Both halves formed their own bodies; one half is still the same pure existence it has been though his eyes are now black as night and the other half is veiled in darkness yet that one's eyes are a glowing brightly, both were embracing the Queen as they always had in private. Tsukasa took action and broke up the trio and in a fit of rage, The Queen struck her own son with the corrupted force she had allowed to take her over though in doing so, he no longer held his mother as a son should and he used his powers to show her how frail she was. He didn't kill her though, he had saved her from herself and she finally realizes what she has done for they could not rejoin the now spilt King. So The Prince did what he knew who let his father be safe and that was to create a place for those souls that can't be saved from their sins they committed and that Dark half of his father had now become the Hell King, the Care Taker of those whom ruined others' lives. His good half remained up in the space that is now the True Castle of the Soul King. The Queen understood what she had done so she took the souls that only committed crimes after they died and lead them to a place far from the Soul Society, and World of the Living. She became the Mistress of all Hollow Souls/Menos. Tsukasa and I took the responsibility for two souls that spawned from the trinity's union, the only other directly link souls to the womb of the Queen and the Seed of the Kings, his twin sisters, Sakuya and Niumi Hio aka the Princesses Between Heaven and Hell. He raised them with the help of his Father and they ensure the balance of souls. I did help as well, although I knew souls haven't reached their fullness potential so I secretly began to make myself some company for I wasn't anything normal to the rest of the Hio family members and so I took a piece of everything single one of my parts of myself and made a reflection of myself though I didn't realize that I was actually removing the fragments of hollow corruption the Mistress had left inside of Tsukasa and I. Thus it was I how made my master into the first Vizard for the mini me was in fact our inner Hollow though as soon as I found this out, I sent him into what is now Hueco Mundo to terrorize the Holy Bitch. She deserves it for causing all of the problems we have to fix or find a way to let stay.

Soon after that, I took the only part I didn't use to make my mini me which is a fragment of my very spiritual brain and from that I created my own mate to call my own. This time a being that is like me, and she didn't need me to name her or do anything, she developed her own will and opinions. I never thought I could love someone like Tsukasa loves his family or his mates he has taken. Metsuki was her name, she is the second Zanpakuto in existence, if you were wondering and she is the mother of Zanpakuto for we started creating more and more after that though we didn't use intercourse to create them for we didn't have that kind of relationship in the beginning. We made other Zanpakuto spirits by molding them out of the spirit energy of worthy souls that lived in the newly formed villages in the Soul Society. However even if the soul was worthy, there was still the problem of harnessing the power of us Zanpakuto. Average souls had no means of bringing out their Zanpakuto even though humans were all to used to the idea of war and violence. I had to give a little nudge though in doing so I made the first Soul Reapers/Shinigami and a huge divide between different kinds of souls. Tsukasa didn't like all of my meddling I was doing in secret though when I explain why I did it, he wasn't to upset and he even like the idea of taking some of the weight that maintaining the balance of souls put on him, his sisters, and their father so he decided to give the average souls a chance. We knew there was a risk but for a couple thousand years, everything was smooth, and we even allowed the best of the original Soul Reapers to join us and we created the Royal Guard though Niumi and Sakuya wanted to called a part of it so we gave it another name, Squad Zero or the Zero Division. Believe me, these reapers aren't the push overs, and for any soul reaper to become a member of Squad Zero, they had to have created something or did something that had a overall positive impact on souls and what not. The original members are also known as the Swords of the Royal Family while the other five you already might now of are known as the Shields of the Royal Family, I will explain that more in a bit. Now, I will start with the Swords. Each member represents one of the paths of reincarnation: Naraka, Chikishodo, Ashura, Manauysa, Preta, Deva, and Samsara. Naraka or the Path of Hell is represented by Niumi Hio, and she also helped develop some Kido techniques. Chikishodo or the Path of Beasts is represented by Haraku Shikon, and he watches over all the souls of animals also he has given them private sections of the soul society to enjoy their afterlife. Ashura or the Path of War is represented by Toorima Yaiba, the swordswoman who inspired Unohana to be who she was in her youth and Yaiba is known for developing the most effective, unteachable, and lethal of weapon based fighting styles. Manauysa or the Path of Humanity is represent by Kae Kaede...I sometimes forget about this one, I usually don't see him around enough and you would think that I would remember him more though I am in a mood not to care about humanity so if I start caring I will let you know more about him. Moving on. Preta or the Path of Ghosts is represented by Jensei Spearei aka Asclepius since he loved begin in the world during the time of Ancient Greek culture and the Reniesence. The Path of Deva or Heaven belongs to Sakuya and despite that fact she is more hellish when it comes to her personality, she is the more responsible decision maker and helped form the Court Guard Squads in secret but I know, she can't keep anything from me. The last Path is that of Samsara or the Path of Eternity, this path symbolizes all of the paths in one and it belongs to my wielder, Tsukasa. These paths make up the swords and those legendary figures that were mistaken for being Gods/Goddesses in other cultures like I said before. They kept order in the soul society for a while.

Now we start to come to one of the more important parts, just about 2000 years ago I think. I noticed how most souls were still having a problem with communicating with their wielders and without being ability to communicate with them, they'll never be able to use their strength as they should. So I came up with a system to give these Zanpakuto a chance to develop their skills both in combat and in communication. I put them in special bodies and let them in a locatized zone *cough* Atlantis *cough* in order to get them to bond with people and become better verisons of themselves. It worked though I sadly had to sink the Hollow's nest that it had become though I made complete use of it and even in it end, it's myserious disappearance still has you humans wondering muhahaha! And no I didn't cross my arms when I did that I'm not Don Go Jump Off a Bridge. Anyway, if you weren't able to guess it that was the first sekirei game though that wasn't its name, I called Zanpakuto go Learn how to better Boot Camp...Metsuki called it the Sekirei Project and that is what Squad Zero like more than my name for it. Now that I think about it, I must have been agreviated to come up with a stupid name I did...great now I'm going to be baffed about how I came up with such a thing...

"Reiten! Where are you?" I hear a voice as three of my favorite people, Tsukasa, Sakuya, and Niumi, they broke me out of my train of thought as they enter the recording room.

"This is where you've been." Niumi sounds off as she makes sure nothing has gotten on her green sun dress. Sakuya in a lavander blouse is looking at me.

"What are you describing everything and anything we do like what I'm saying now?" She asks with her eyebrow raised and master put his hand on her shoulder.

"Don't you two remember? He is narratoring the Prologue before the Author goes back to his usual third person POV." He says as Sakuya nods and grabs his hand since if you haven't guessed it, they have done the nasty before. As I tell you all that, Sakuya blisses and Niumi looks frustrustated.

"Tell me the truth, have you commited Incest with each other? Nii-chan and Nee-kun." Sakuya is not welling to answer but Tsukasa looks right into Niumi's eyes.

"Yes sister, I did do it and I am not ashamed of it for Incest doesn't exist between me and her." Niumi's face gets a little poofy.

"So tell me, Is our relationship ever going to get to that point?" Tsukasa shakes his head.

"You're not my type." Niumi starts to cry yet I am finding this more comical than I should but its time to ignore them so I can get to the last details that you all need to know before we get to the current time which I believe is the year 2020...yes I can interrupt the Olimpyics.

Anyway, 1,100 years ago. At this time in the true castle of the Soul King. His Majesty's Purity gains a thought in his head as he reflected on the past. He believed that his darkness would over come him once more and so he ripes out the last bit of darkness in himself not realizing that it was the very thing keeping himself together thus he unknowning casts it out and into the Soul Society. Tsukasa and I took the time to analyze the possible outcomes of ignoring it and lets just say we aren't letting the Thousand Year War happen cause no way we are letting a 7 to 9 year old kill an amalgamation of mess. So we put things into motion that would make more sense. At the same time, several researchers were doing experiments to their time in the Soul Society aka become immortal which obviously didn't work when an explosion happened causing a vast number of souls both in the Soul Society and the World of the Living to change. Sure so change wasn't noticeable but two races came into existance thanks to those Sciencists. The Bounts and the Quincy. And much like how you know if you watch the first filler seasons of bleach aka Season 4 and 5 the Bount arc, Bounts pretty much the same from that even with Self Genicidal leader though those weren't all of the Bount for Kae Kaede and Asclepius saved a group of Bounts and gave them a perpose to moditor the areas of the World of the Living where Soul Reapers might not be able to like Europe, Africa, and the Americas. Otherwise the rest of them were treated fouly and killed of with the help of the Monks of Destruction aka Quincies. They were most helpful in the beginning of there existance but after the first hundred years, something happened and a battle broke out between the Soul Reapers and Quincies. Many died on both sides, each one fighting for a King though Ywach was more than meets the eye as he and Yamamoto did battle and lets be honest, the Author should so type up a flash back of their battle. Though Yamamoto did have help in this fight from four of the going to be Shields of the Soul King and all five of them were able to destroy the body of Ywach and force the Quincies to hide in the World of the Living though my master had his suspecions so Yaiba, Sakuya and Niumi helped us hunt down that monster's soul and when we did they found out what the Soul King did and so I in the hands of Tsukasa made sure that the Soul King would return to his normal self and Ywach had his existance purged thus the Bleach timeline has been explained. Finally now, we can skip all the way to the present and get to the story or so I thought as Sakuya comes into the room.

"I know you are busy trying to wrap this up, I do have some Questions. First, is Ichigo a mutt? Second, where do Fullbringers play in or are they really a new thing in conserns to the time line as a whole? And lastly, Can you make Niumi stop crying? She thinks I'm lying to her." She asks this many questions as I realize Niumi is still crying and my master is nowhere to be found.

"Alright Sakuya, I will help her and to not answer your other questions, found out as this new tale begins with a bang." I say as I wipe Niumi's memory of the last ten to fifteen minutes and firmly grab Sakuya. "Now my dear, lets go have lunch and torture Ichi." She giggles.

"You mean Itchy." She says and I nod teleporting us back to their home.

To Be Continued...
