The world consist of four spiritual beings: Humans(those who are usually spiritually unaware), Soul Reapers, Hollows, and Quincys.

Beings that are spoken in ancient lure did not exist, at least, no longer in the world of the living. Mythical creatures only existed in spiritual forms, most humans could not see them. Few of them still exist.

In the Soul Society, these beings lived on the far edges of the realm of normal, human souls. Most of these beings have faded away over the years, but there were a few that remained strong.

There are the Okibi, spirits that are known as Onibi. They look like normal humans, but are known to have fierce tempers to match the flames that they control. These were the people Soul Reapers would bring their broken zanpakutos to to be repaired. This family was considered to be noble, but not as high ranking as one of the four great noble families. That is why they despised and hated the other spiritual family...

The Shirayuki clan was the opposite of the Okibis. They were known as snow people, or as humans would call the females, Yuki-Onnas. This family lived on the farthest corner of the Spiritual Realm, on a mountain that resembled Mount Fuji. Some say that they were responsible for season changes. When the seasons would change, they would influence the climate depending on which season was next. Winter, they had full control, and in summer, they released all influence on the spiritual atmosphere.

But why would the Okibi hate them?

A Shirayuki had married into one of the four noble families, giving the Shirayuki family greater nobility than the Okibi.

The current head of the Shirayuki family, Fubuki Shirayuki, had married into another noble family. But with the death of her husband, she returned with her children to the mountains. The Okibi family then moved the main part of their house to a mansion in the Soul Society.

One day, the eldest child of the Okibi family was playing in the garden. She was young, only about four, with her family's signature red-gold hair in pigtails. Her red kimono reflected her name-

"Akane! Dear, don't go too far out in the garden! Stay where I can see you." The child's mother called from her place near the home. A maid set down a cup of steaming tea and bowed to the lady of the house. Akane's mother smiled and nodded to her, placing a hand on her round belly. She was waiting for her next child, hopefully a son.

Akane didn't listen to her mother though, she was too interested in playing with her new ball. Throwing it up in the air, she reached out to catch it, but it slipped from her hands and rolled away. Her small legs carried her over to where the ball rolled into the bushes. She reached down for the red sphere, only to be picked up. Akane was going to scream, not known who had picked her up, but her mouth was covered and she began to feel drowsy. Upon not hearing her child's giggles, Aki rose from her spot and walked towards where she last seen Akane. A scream retched from her throat as she frantically searched for her daughter.

"Akane! Akane!" Her search came up empty handed and her scream brought guards. The compound was sent into a painck and the search for young Akane branched out to the other houses and eventually, the whole Seireitei. But the young girl was nowhere to be found.

Due to their position in the Soul Society and the head of the house being a part of the Thirteen Court Guard Squads, they were mobilized to find a kidnapper.

Soon, head captain Yamamoto would receive word that a child of the Shirayuki family had also been taken.

The children would not be found, not by anyone in the Soul Society anyways. They would be found by a young woman and her fiancee, who had been taking a hike in the mountains. The Shirayuki child, with her strange blue hair and white kimono was cold to the touch, making the couple think she was dead. But the little girl began to cry, the couple seeing the strangest thing. Her tears would turn into small ice shaped tears. The other child, whom she had tried to distance herself from, was also crying. The ground below her was scourched and her redish-gold hair was messy with leaves and twigs. Taking both children in their arms, the couple brought them with them back to town. Their, they took the children to a good friend who owned a clinic. He claimed that they were fine, other than the large bump both of them had on their heads. But when the couple described the situation they found them in, he was concerned. As he talked to the couple, his son came in ,about the same age as them, followed by his wife.

"Masaki, can you take these two girls for a moment." The woman smiled and grabbed the two girls, taking them to the kitchen. The two seemed to distance themselves from each other. Masaki placed a plate of cookies in front of them along with milk.

"Mommy, can I have some?" The young boy asked. His mother smiled sweetly at him.

"Of course you can Ichigo." He took a seat in between the two and happily took a cookie. A cry called attention that there were other children. "Ichigo, please keep these two company while I check on your sisters." He nodded, happy to do something for his mother, but once she left, he was nervous. These two were dressed in fancy kimonos and had hair pieces that looked like they were made of gold.

The red/gold haired one frowned heavily, while the blue haired one looked like she was going to cry. Ichigo was uncomfortable until his mother returned. By then, his father was also done talking to the couple. The young orange haired boy watched as his father when to talk to his mom. She gasped and nodded, her face full of determination. The female of the couple scooped up the girl with the red kimono while Masaki took the other child in her arms. At first, the blue haired girl squirmed uncomfortable in her arms, but then settled down.

The couple took the child with them, adopting her and eventually moving to America. The other girl stayed with the Kurosaki family for a few months until a friend agreed to take her. The friend understood what the child really was, so she could be probably provided for.

The two girls were seperated, until they met each other in third grade, as they were placed in the same class in a small Wisconsin town. They didn't remember each other, but a friendship grew between these polar opposites.

Akane was renamed Ember.

And the other girl was given the name Snow, by young Ichigo Kurosaki.

These two girls would return to Karakura Town, years after being brought there by a kidnapper.

There, they would discover who they really are and what lied in their destiny.
