Its strange how something you do on a regular basis can discover something new and that something new changes your life.

For kaien shiba what was repetitive was his use of the free time away from the soul reaper academy to visit his siblings.

It hadn't been long since he had last visited them , barely a month, but he always visited them no matter what even if it was just for a few minutes he knew he could leave the house with Kukkaku with her fiery attitude which made her act like an adult at the age of 150 but if he didn't visit his youngest brother Ganju would cry pretty hard and even for a four year old he had the lungs of an opera singer so it wasn't unusual to find Kaien Shiba running back to his home in his uniform while a very loud scream could be heard from his destination but today was different.

Very different because just today he had passed the soul reaper exam and was now a member of squad 13 and according to captain Ukitake the only reason he wasn't a seated officer was because all the seats were filled and he had another surprise for them he was bringing with him a woman she wasn't just any woman.

This was Miyako, they had been together a year but the chemistry had been electric they had met in an advanced kido training course and been partnered together but they didn't separate when the class was over, no in a week they had gotten into each other's in three moths Miyako had already started being the mother that Ganju never had now a year after they had met they were engaged to be married.

This was going to be a very eventful homecoming.

Kaien didn't know the half of it but he was content just holding his fiancés hand feeling the wind caress his skin seeing the beautiful greens of the country side listening to the rustling grass smelling-wait

"Hey Miyako do you smell something strange?" it was metallic and could only be smelled when the wind changed direction a certain way but the small whiffs he got was enough for him to recognise it.

It was blood

"It's coming from the south." Miyako had smelt it too.

Now blood in the Rukon district was not uncommon but if it is strong enough to carry on the wind then it is certainly a large amount with a quick nod and an unspoken agreement the two of them took to the trees.

Within moments they came upon a house in a clearing it was a simple house with a thatched roof, laundry line everything one would need to live peacefully.

But the owner obviously did not the thatched roof had a hole the size of a beach ball burned perfectly into it, the door was hanging off its hinges as though pulled off in a panic and the ground was torn up with signs of battle but the really obvious part would have to be the bodies laying in the middle of the clearing

4 of them were obviously sou reapers they were all dad by means of a sword one even had a zanpaktou sticking out of his back there was one other body that was obviously not a soul reaper

The body was that of a small boy he looked to be about 130 years of age (basically 13 years old in our terms I am just making it so that for every ten years in soul society the people age 1 year) he wore ragged clothes befitting a street kid his face still had a bit of baby fat in his face and his hair was a messy uncombed deep green mess and he was pretty badly hurt from the looks of it so Miyako, being the better medic, checked him over while Kaien investigated the house finding an incredibly Spartan house all he found was two futons enough food for two people the occasional painting and a picture of the boy outside receiving a piggy back ride from a pretty young girl who was so similar to him he had to have been a relative.

"KAIEN COME QUICK!" Miyako screaming for help was quite strange since she was able to handle herself quite well so if she wanted help he would be there in a flash or a flash step

In a flash step he found himself back beside the body Miyako had turned him over so that he was facing the sky and his wounds were easier to see.

"I can't believe it Kaien this boy went through so much his arm is broken in three places this stab wound on his stomach it isn't fatal but it had to have hurt quite a lot his chest is basically caved in as well he was lucky to have been able to breathe but that is not the worst part this blow to the head is a bludgeoning blow that would have almost certainly killed him."

"Wait what do you mean would have?"

"I mean he is alive." Kaien could not believe so many injuries that should have killed and he is still alive this boy was special "and the strange part is this" Miyako held up the boys arm that Kaien now noticed had a firm grip on a zanpaktou the length was nothing special but the guard was it looked as if a snake had wrapped itself into a tight circle before laying its head upon the blades edge eyes and jaws wide open to hypnotise and trap its enemies and the boy seriously did not want to let it go even if Kaien went red in the face from exertion the kid would not open his fist so he let the kid hold onto it. For now.

"Let's get him back home."

He awoke with a pounding headache it felt like he had taken a tree trunk to the forehead he groaned trying to sit up but he fell back down trying to cover his ears when a particularly high pitched voice screamed "BIG BRO THE BOY IS UP." he looked around seeing a boy barely 40 years old (4) watching him with eyes that brimmed with curiosity.

"Ganju quiet this boy has just woken up we must use our low voices." spoke a woman out of sight lowering her voice to demonstrate to the boy.

"okay." the boy quickly ran off possibly to search for his brother.

"how do you feel?" the woman who had spoken earlier came into view she was very pretty she had she had large onyx eyes that spoke concern her hair was made so that on both sides of her face there was a bang over her ears and the rest was pulled back by a small bow and she only needed to open her mouth the smallest amount just to be heard.

"Where am I?"

"You are in the Shiba household." the boy seemed dazed and confused but still the fact that he had spoken clearly was a good sign "what's your name?"

"Korusuke Hanada" (Korusuke is the first name for all those people who think that I would copy the Japanese and have my characters identify themselves with their last names first) Korusuke was having a hard time remembering why he was covered in bandages and at the bottom of his stomach he felt like he did not want to know but soon the door opened and in walked a young man who might have been a little older than the woman he had jet black hair and a face that seemed to forever be stuck with a goofy grin

But this did not catch the boys' attention but the uniform he wore did, it was the uniform of the soul reapers and it seemed to pull at korusukes' memory it was something recent-

And then it all came flooding back all of it the fight the pain and that toothy smile that damn soul reaper had on his face when he took her deep within Korusuke rose an unbridled anger tearing through him and he knew he wasn't thinking straight but he had to kill this soul reaper.

In one swift movement the boy leapt from the bed his hand still holding his zanpaktou came around aimed at the man's neck the man reacted in time leaving only the sliding door to fall victim to the sword but the boy wasn't finished snarling like a wildcat he thrust he slashed and performed every single attack he had perfected over the years but they were not enough to kill the man who kept his sword sheathed and only moved out of the way with infuriating ease, Korusuke was only stopped after the man talked out some weird chant that ended with Korusuke being impaled by 6 beams of light (rikujokoru) that paralysed him and seemed to hold him just above the ground

"ALL RIGHT JUST WHAT THE HELL IS YOUR PROBLEM?" this was a new voice and it belonged to the ever infamous Kukkaku Shiba easily recognised with her wooden arm but mainly for her body she was only sixteen and already she had the body of an actress in every field the face for romance, the mouth for action and the bust for XXX but that so-called romantic face was currently contorted in anger as she had witnessed her brother being attacked in his own home fortunately Kaien had a way of warning his little sister of when he wanted her to be quiet.

He would bop her on the head and if she didn't get the picture it would be a punch normally she got the picture like in this instance Kaien Shiba calmly walked towards the lad held in midair putting his face right up to his asking simply "Why?" the kid was quite loud in his answer

"BECAUSE YOU SOUL REAPERS STOLE MY SISTER!"

Korusuke sat in the main living room of the Shiba household watching the stunned faces that had just heard his story.

It had taken a bit of convincing but. Korusuke finally calmed down enough to tell them what had happened yesterday without giving in to the urge of slitting Kaiens' throat.

(Flashback)

To understand the Hanada siblings you first had to understand their story they lived in the 53rd Rukon district sometimes called Renegade Rock not the easiest place to live in but certainly higher than other districts.

Korusuke was not the oldest of the Hanada siblings he was born after his sister Ayame she was always a beauty even the mid-wife complemented her on her looks

She got the tenderness and Korusuke got the hard stuff Korusuke always admired his for her ability to smile even in tough times.

And look beautiful doing it with her kind face she would always have her hair in two sections the front part would be pink and mildly messy but the back would a smooth and glossy black making many wonder how long she spent on her hair and she wasn't a little girl either she had the body that many women would kill but she was not vain if anyone complimented her on her looks she would always just wave the compliment away with a blush.

This of course caused a problem for Korusuke since he was the brother he had to kick the ass of anyone trying to get close to her but that was okay for Korusuke because everyone knew he was special.

From birth everyone knew he was unique there were no complications with the birth but at a short time when the midwife had looked away and looked back he was holding a zanpaktou it was barely the size of a small knife but it was sharp beyond compare.

Now just about everyone knew that zanpaktous' are first manifested when the spirit energy of the wielder had become strong enough to mould together and create a sword and conscious bond between the two and for it to happen as a baby was unheard of in the history of soul society and it wasn't just the early manifestation that proved him to be strong he could really use the sword at 100 he had already learnt 4 different styles and was undefeated in every sword match he fought.

But that skill was not enough to prepare him for that day.

It was a beautiful spring day and Korusuke was sleeping in just as usual but Ayame was busy putting out the laundry as usual and it would have been a peaceful usual day for Korusuke if not for the giant red ball of spirit energy suddenly blowing a hole in the roof and the raised voices outside Korusuke ran to the front grabbing his zanpaktou on the way when the front door slid open he was quite surprised in front of him stood 4 soul reapers all of them big burly men but in the centre of them stood a man that screamed money.

He wasn't overtly tall or muscular but he exuded this feeling of superiority his black hair was slicked back till it branched out under his ears like hooks and his face was to say the least mildly handsome but at the moment Korusuke couldn't care less how good looking he was because the soul reaper was currently holding an unconscious Ayame by her hair and dragging her back to Seireitei releasing his hold over his spiritual pressure Korusuke screamed.

"HOLD IT." all the soul reapers were quite surprised to feel the sudden and powerful spike in spiritual pressure all of them expected to see a man but all they saw was a small 130 year old boy.

"What do you want kid?" the leader spoke in a voice that demanded answers.

"Give me back my sister."

"No can do see I have a little business that I am sure your sister would just love to be a part of."

"What business?"

"my harem many soul reapers have little time to set aside for a woman so sex is very hard to come by but if they come to my harem they shall find women aplenty" Korusuke could not believe this was going to happen his sister was going to be a sex slave to a soul reaper.

Not on his watch grabbing his zanpaktous hilt he dashed at the closest soul reaper who was way too confident as he held his hand out to grab Korusuke who promptly ducked under his grab unsheathing his sword using the subsequent swing to cut off the soul reapers arm and moving on to the next one this one was just a little bit more prepared and only a little bit for he had managed to draw his sword but the initial shock of the attack had left his stance sloppy so a quick leap over the shinigami with a quick slash across the top of his head left Korusuke with one less enemy to take care of now the initiative was lost and the last two were ready for him and most fighters would have slowed down but not Korusuke both of the soul reapers stood side to side Korusuke went for the one on his right the soul reaper thrust but Korusuke deftly turned around the blade til he was between the two bringing his sword around at the other soul reaper who blocked him Korusuke knew he could get no ground against this opponent so he jumped backwards crashing into the soul reaper behind him using his momentum Korusuke rolled over the back of the soul reaper pushing him into the ground.

The still standing soul reaper saw his chance and shot forward his sword raised above his head hoping to catch the brat before he could right himself but Korusuke while feigning imbalance before doing a one-handed handstand twisted and cut the soul reapers legs off at the knees toppling backwards Korusuke flipped back on his feet and walked towards the lame shinigami who had gone to pleading for his life but his pleads fell on deaf ears as Korusuke removed his head from his shoulders.

The last shinigami having seen how outmatched he was had decided to run and he was already a good 100 feet away but this was no problem for Korusuke as he picked up his enemies zanpaktou and promptly threw it over arm like a knife which subsequently buried itself in the hapless warriors back.

Korusuke was surprised when he saw the leader was applauding him.

"Impressive very impressive defeating 4 fully qualified soul reapers and your breathing is hardly laboured."

"Release my sister now or end up the same as your friends."

"Ah now there is where you are mistaken for you see..." the man vanished one moment he was there then he was gone "...I am much better."

Pain searing hot pain exploded from korusukes' stomach the source was the leaders' zanpaktou that had run him through.

"it seems you don't know me well let me tell you my name is Garunichi Shihoin I am noble blood and the third seat of squad two I am far stronger than those commoners." he withdrew his sword from within Korusuke leaving him to fall to his knees and just as he was about to grab his new toys hair he heard the boy trying to sneak up behind him and he would have if it wasn't for the dripping of his blood.

Korusuke stabbed at where Garunichis' heart should have been but he disappeared just as his sword was about to pierce him.

"Quite the bit of fight in you isn't there?" he was on top of the house "I guess I will have to make this quick." he drew his sword and held it before him as though he were praying "destroy his bones Kamigami Shioki (gods law)." Korusuke had never seen a zanpaktou release before so when he saw Garunichis' sword suddenly start growing he was quite confused.

In the end the sword turned into a giant bludgeon with small bumps and ridges but it wasn't the shape it was the size it was nearly the size of Korusuke but he prepared for an attack nonetheless it was very likely the size would slow the bastard down how wrong he was.

In an instant Garunichi hefted the weapon above his head and had charged at Korusuke at a blinding pace Korusuke could only raise his free arm in time to stop it and the power certainly hadn't diminished with the speed as Korusuke felt his arm shatter under the power.

"this is the power Kamigami Shioki it loses its ability to cut but it gives me more power and reach and even though it feels like a feather to me to my enemies it feels like a building collapsing on the them now then die." with the same speed as earlier Garunichi jumped up above Korusuke much the same as Korusuke had done earlier but this time instead of cutting his head Garunichi brought Kamigami Shioki around to impact against his chest causing nearly every single rib within his body to break and send him flying back into the tree.

"My my my..." Garunichi muttered as he walked over to his prize once more gripping her hair. "you certainly were a bother to claim weren't you."

"put her down." Garunichi couldn't believe the damn kid was still alive even after two direct hits but the next plan Garunichi had was almost certain to kill him.

"maybe she is too much of a bother to let live." Garunichi raised his bludgeon aiming at Ayames head Korusuke ran to stop them he was shouting – no screaming at him to stop Garunichi waited waited

Then just as Korusuke was about to reach them Garunichi spun on his heel so that he looked like a baseballer going for a swing and Korusuke was the ball bringing his bludgeon around with all his might there was a sickening crunch as the attack connected with his skull fracturing it on impact his legs still carrying him forward.

Korusuke went end over end until he finally landed beside Ayame still out cold Korusuke desperately tried to raise his hand to grab her and hold her tight but his arms were heavy he tried to stand but his legs were no longer his own he watched as Garunichi picked up Ayame and slung her over his arm like sack of meat and walked off leaving Korusuke to finally slip into unconsciousness.

(End flashback)

"My god." Miyakos expression could only be described as pure horror Kukkaku was shedding some quite uncharacter like tears and Kaien was trembling with rage.

"I apologize for attacking-"

"You have nothing to be sorry for." Kaien had stood up and was gestured for Korusuke to follow him he promptly did. "you have every reason to hate soul reapers and you can be sure you will get your sister back."

"How?"

"I will go and consult the stealth squad have them issue an investigation into this Garunichi Shihoin if there is anything to be found they will find it just stay here I will come back within the month to let you know what is going on in the meantime he will probably send some of his men to clean up the scene he left behind and when he hears your body is gone he will come looking for you so stay low."

"Okay."

"Kukkaku..." in an instant the buxom sister had appeared ready to obey orders "...I want you to look after Korusuke for me make sure he is safe."

"With pleasure" the tone she used left Korusuke with a bad feeling in his spine she had been looking at him with goo-goo eyes ever since he had told his story.

With that Kaien took off and left Korusuke behind with nothing but a small hope which he could not identify whether or not it was misguided.

(One month later)

Korusuke sat outside the Shiba household on top of the enormous chimney in the back yard.

The time had passed so quickly without Ayame there just didn't seem to be any substance to the time so he just spent it all recovering and (against Kukkaku orders) training making sure he was ready for next time.

His recovery was going well his arm was all fixed the stab wound had healed his ribs were still on their way but his skull he suspected was not quite fixed properly because lately he would hear in his ear a whisper of a voice usually calling him weak and he would always have this weird dream.

He always found himself in a large desert its sand was harsh against his skin and all around him he could only find sand except for this small throne on which was a sleeping snake and every time he got close to it its eyes would snap open and turn towards him the snakes mouth would move as though speaking but Korusuke would not be able to hear her before he wakes up in a cold sweat.

But he had more important things to worry about because he had just spotted Kaien walked home for the first time since this whole charade had begun.

Korusuke jumped down the entire length of the chimney (ribs weren't too happy) and ran to Kaien he stopped before him

Kaien for the first time in his life was at a loss for words here was this young man who had lost everything and the only thing keeping him going was the knowledge that there was a chance he would get his sister back.

And he was about to destroy that hope.

"it can't be done." god that face it screamed betrayal "the guy who attacked you is the head of internal affairs so any assignment goes through him and he isn't about to open an investigation on himself the captain of his squad tells me it would be a gross misallocation of resources but personally I think he already knows about it and doesn't want it shut down for personal reasons and the vice-captain is this big new guy called Omaeda who seems more concerned with his next meal than his squads slanderous members if there was anything more I could do I would do it but we won't get any help from soul society." Korusuke was frozen he just didn't seem to be able to comprehend the fact that everything was gone and Kaien knew that if he didn't stop looking at him his heart would tear in two so he walked past whispering in the poor child's ear "I am sorry."

Korusuke waited and waited and waited trying to think of what to do plans went through his head at warp speed all of them insane all of them reckless all ending in the same way him dead his sister raped and the world still spinning.

From this lack of success came any overwhelming anger it flooded his mind shredded his heart and he released his anger out his mouth.

"AAAARRRRRGGGGGHHHH" the scream was heard from miles around and the feeling of the spiritual energy was felt even further it just exploded outwards as though it was trying to tear him apart the pain was incredible but then

It stopped.

It wasn't just the pain that faded everything around him seemed to disintegrate then the fragments seemed to change colour before reassembling themselves in front of him.

He was in the dessert it was the same dessert as in his dream because right before him was the throne but the snake wasn't seated in it instead the was a woman she had made herself not to look beautiful but to look alluring her hair shimmered from green to black to blue and back again it was fanned out as though caught in an unfelt breeze her lips a sensual red her sizeable chest was bared for all to see her eyes were a mesmerizing yellow.

But at her waist everything changed because at the waist her skin slowly turned from skin to scales and it was not an ordinary pair of legs no this was a snake's tail it was a good two metres long and wrapped itself around the chair.

she stood supporting herself on her tail as it slid forward she came up to Korusuke and seemed to appraise him from top to bottom before beginning to circle him always tightening up around him with every rotation before she finally bent her head toward the crook of his neck and inhaled deeply.

"Ah that sweet smell of fear I could almost get drunk on It." her voice was alluring deep and enticing. "Almost being the operative word." she slunk back to her chair lying herself down across the arms and stretching her arms over her head trying to fully show her chest. "I should thank that asshole from before what was his name garu-something I swear the amount of battles we have had lately have been far too few those soul reapers and their blood it was particularly sweet." she licked her lips as though savouring a meal. "but then you had to go and get yourself so close to being dead you were seeing the light at the end of the tunnel seriously how would I get a meal if you died ever think of that-"

"I have no idea what you are talking about I don't even know you let alone fed you blood-"

"Ah but you see you have fought with me just as that garu boy used Kamigami Shioki."

"You mean you are my zanpaktou."

"Ding ding ding we have a winner now all you have to do to collect the prize is say my name."

And in a flash he knew it was just suddenly there as though he had woken from dream years ago and only just now realised what was said in it

"Heibihime" she was behind him turning his head to hers

"good boy she kissed him sliding her forked tongue between his lips and he was back he was on the ground outside the Shiba house Heibihime had slipped from his belt in such a way that slowed the snake on the blade to stare back at him.

"Now that you have my powers use it." Heibihime spoke in his mind "after all with this power I will be fed much more now." and so the voice faded and it would only be the first of many times that this would happen and now Korusuke had something to hang onto.

Something to help him get his sister back.

(140 years later)

Ganju had only now finished practising his chant and changed his clothes and was now rushing towards the giant cannon in his back yard it had been a weird few days lately that punk Ichigo had shown up with his friends and nearly destroyed the house twice and now here Ganju was about to follow the bastard into Seireitei wreak havoc just to save his soul reaper friend.

Oh the situations he got into.

Just one more corner and he would be in the clearing that is if it wasn't for the hand clamped over his mouth and arm on his collar pulling him backwards Ganju struggled against his assailant but the bastard was strong.

"Relax Ganju its me." he knew that voice and the owner of that voice released him allowing Ganju a chance to turn around to face him.

He had grown he had gone from a street punk to a man his face had lost all trace of baby fat giving him an angular jaw and he had let his deep green hair grow out to make a braid reaching down to the crook in his neck he had lost his rags and replaced them with a white sleeveless hoodie and black jeans

"Damn Korusuke next time just walk up to me and say hello no need to scare the crap out of me."

"Think of it as payback."

"What did I do?"

"Where do I begin?"

"hadehahaha what do you want?" whenever he was over it was almost always for a reason either food a place to rest no matter what except for that one time he and Kukkaku went on a date thank god they both agreed it was fun but only when they tried to act like friends if they had kept dating Ganju doubted he would have been able to stop himself from knocking Korusukes block off.

"well I just heard about your little infiltration plan and I though you might be able to help me while doing it." he held out a small knuckle blade at one end its blade extended outwards and was about the length of half an arm (think asuma from Naruto) "just take this and place it in some spot that no one will ever find it in 4 days it will activate so be sure to remember."

"WAIT A MINUTE your just making us do all the grunt work."

"That is one way to look at it but this is my only option." Ganju was to say the least unhappy

"FINE but you owe me." Ganju took the blade and slipped it into his carry pouch behind him.

"Okay good luck" and with that Ganju raced towards the canon.

It had finally passed the fourth day was over and now Korusuke stood atop the highest point of the Rukon district staring out towards Seireitei if Ganju did as he was told everything should be ready.

Korusuke concentrated hard preparing himself for that familiar feeling of weightlessness closing his eyes it came and went and when he finally opened his eyes he was in some sort of sewer he noticed that there was an awful amount of blood on the ground as though someone had been doing surgery but Korusuke did not care.

After so long he was finally about to save his sister he had finally gotten into the Seireitei.

OPINIONS I NEED OPINIONS

Okay to clarify the captain of the second squad when Ayame was captured was not Yoruichi or Soi Fong I just made this guy up since I am sure Yoruichi would stop the whole thing

Now the decider who thinks this story shold continue i have started a new poll to decide if it should stay and be updated and be warned the chapters will not be 5000 words long like this one they will only be about 2-3000 words which will actually become uniform around all my stories
