CHAPTER 2

"NEW HERO'S APPEAR"

Lucian and Lestat are now in bed after a night of fighting what are called the Oni. They fought them with every fiber of their being and yet still they needed

more. The Oni have now revealed themselves, but their plans have not. The next morning Lucian and Lestat get up only to find a note telling them an adress

to go to. They get dressed and wander around town and see Kanin, Michael and Herutsu at a shop in a back alley. They stand in front of a man with blond

hair. He is fairly tall and wears a dark green jacket with a white shirt under it. He has tan shorts and a white and dark green striped hat. He has stubbly facial

hair. His hat covers his eyes so their color is yet to be known. He has a cane that he is holding. They look on to see that Herutsu, Kanin and Michael are

talking to this man when they turn back and signal for Lucian and Lestat to go to them. As they walk over to them the man smiles at them oddly. "So you are

the two "Movie Monsters" that fought against those two Oni?" the man askes with a strange tone. The two nod with a blank expession on their faces. "Yes

that is right, Kisuke." Herutsu says to the man. "Well, that's interesting. My name Is Kisuke Urahara. I'm the owner of this shop. I sell to the Soul Reapers of

this town," the man says as he tilts his head back and waves a fan that he pulls out of his pocket..

"Soul Reapers?" the two boys ask in a curious tone. "Oh, they prefer to be called Shinigami, but they are also called Soul Reapers." Kisuke says with a

smile as he looks over to Kanin and Michael. "Why don't you make these two Soul Reapers. I think they would make excellent Shinigami." The two boys

look to each other then back to the others. "What?" they ask with surprize in their voice. Just then a man dressed in a red, long sleeve shirt with black

trimming and baggy red pants appears. He has short black hair with red highlights. He carries a sword with a red grip wrapping on the hilt. It is held by a

loose fitting belt. His eyes locked on the two boys. "How is it that Kentan and Bushou were defeated by the likes of you?" the man asked as a rhetorical

question. The boys take fighting stances. The man holds his arms folded over his chest. "My name is Doki and if you were to fight me I would kill you easily,"

the man states as he turns and starts to walk away. "If you truely wish to fight me go back to the place where Bushou and Kentan were killed in two months

and both of you come by yourselves," the man states as he vanishes.

The two boys look to the others. "Well that was strange," Kisuke says to the group before him. "Well, lets get inside. We have much to talk about." They all

follow him into the shop. "So Kisuke, what are we going to do?" Herutsu askes the man in dark green. "I want to become a Shinigami," Lucian says to the

group. Lestat nods his head in agreement."I want to fight and help defeat these Oni or whatever it is that they call themselves," Lucian says with a fire in his

eyes. "No," Kanin says and looks to Kisuke. "They will never be ready in two months to fight against Doki. I felt his spiritual pressure and it was overwhelming."

"Well Kanin, I believe the boys have made up their minds," Kisuke says as he looks to Kanin and then to the two boys. Kanin, Michael, and Herutsu look to

Lestat and Lucian. The boys have a burning desire in their eyes. "Please make my brother and me Shinigami. We will train as hard as we can to help you

guys." "We need to do this," Lucian says as he looks down. "Ever sense we were kids we could see and speak to spirits. To know that there are spirits out

their that want to kill and hurt others.....well, then that makes it our problem as much as it is yours.

Kanin looks down as Herutsu, Michael ,and Kisuke who smile and nod. "Ok then. That settles it. You two shall become Shinigami," Kisuke says while still

waving his fan. They all nod. Kisuke signals for them to follow. He takes them to an underground battle field. He stops in the middle. It is full of sand and

small mountain-like rocks. "This will be your training field," Kisuke says as he walks up to the two boys. He holds up his cane. On the bottom of it is a skull

in blue flames. He pushes it through Lucian's head then Lestat's. They fly out of their bodys. They have chains hanging from their chest."What the hell is

this?!" both boys exclaim. "Well, I'm going to help you two gain your Shinigami powers," Kisuke explains. The air becomes heavy and hard for the boys to

breathe. They stand and look at the others that stand around them. "Now Michael, exit your gigai," Kisuke turns and says to Michaelthe boy. Michael looks

around and then does so. "Now fight them without your Zanpak-to," Kisuke says. Michael looks to Kisuke in shock. "Your kidding," Michael says, but as he

is speaking Lucian and Lestat get into simaliar fighting stances and both take off at Michael. Michael quickly dodges their attacks. "So you want to do this.

Guess I have no choice but to ablige you," Michael says with a smile as he launches a counter attack and hits both of them in the face with a round house

kick. They are sent flying and hit the ground twenty feet away.

They stand and look to Michael. He stands in a fighting stance and smiles. The two boys launch and start attacking. The air to them is begining to seem

less heavy and their attacks become faster and more fierce. Michael dodges and counters, but the boys start to overwhelm him. Kanin then jumps out of his

gigai and helps out Michael. To Kanin's surprise Lucian and Lestat are fairing well against them. Kisuke stops them from fighting anymore. "Good. Now you

two have the hang of being out of your bodies. Now for stage two," he says with a smile. A very big man with dark tan skin and cornrolls in his hair appears.

He wears a light blue apron with a white short sleeve shirt and blue jeans. His sun glasses cover his eyes. He puts his hands together and speaks in a low

mumble. They look to him as a gigantic hole forms under them. They fall in and look up as the man jumps in and once more holds his hand together and

mumbles yet again. Their arms are then bound behind them. Kisuke smiles and throws down two daggers and breaks their chains. The boys look at Kisuke.

"What the fuck are you doing?" Lucian yells to Kisuke. "Well you have two choices. You can either turn into Shinigami or Hollows. But know this: if you two

turn into Hollows we will kill you," Kisuke says as his facal expression turns more serious.

The two boys fight to get out of the hole. They notice that the chains have started eating themselves. They start to freak out. "Oh and just to let you know,

you have until those chains fully encroach upon themselves to become Shinigami. If you don't you will become Hollows. And then we will have no choice but

to kill you two," Kisuke says to them with that serious expression on his face. Lucian and Lestat start to yell as a thick ice blue aura starts to flow around

them and fully covers their bodies. Kanin, Michael, and Herutsu stare in shock at this power, but the chains finish their encrochment and out of their mouths,

eyes, and nose Hollow masks start to form. Then in a bright flash of light they shoot out of the hole. Kisuke and the others turn to see Lestat in a black

trench coat that buttons mid abdomen with white trimming with baggy black pants while Lucian is wearing the same, but the opposit colors. Both have

masks. Lucian has a wolf's mask with blood red arches around the ears and black tribal around his eyes. Lestat has a skull-like mask, but the bottom jaw is

missing and the teeth are long and sharp. The two outer teeth are the longest and have red halfway up them. The eyes have what look like blood colored tears

coming from them. They both have Zanpak-to at their left sides. The hilts are ice blue and the hand guards are colored to match the outfit they are wearing.

"That's amazing. They've turned into Vizards, but they're not wearing the traditional Shinigami garments," Kanin says. "Yeah, but which one is which?"

Michael askes. The two boy remove their mask to reveal themselves. "Ah! So Lucian is the one in white and Lestat is in black," Herutsu says. They look to

them. "Ok Kisuke, what's the next stage of training?" Lestat askes. Kisuke smiles and looks to them. "Well we will pick that up tomorrow. It's getting late.

You boys should get home and get some rest," Kisuke says as he goes to the ladder. "But we have school tomorrow," Lucian says to Kisuke. "Well, what is

more important to you. Getting stronger to face the Oni or going to school? You make that choice," Kisuke says to the two boy's as he goes up the ladder.

The two boys get back into their bodies and go up the ladder. They wander around Karakura town for a few hours. It is dark and they do not know what to do.

They want to help, but they made a promise to their mother that they would go to school and graduate. But they have to do something about these Oni. If

they don't then who would? Kanin, Michael, and Herutsu are strong but they have too much doubt in their hearts to fight them. Just then a boy with green hair

and blue eyes walks up. He is wearing the same outfit as the other Shinigami they have met

He walks around them, his blue eyes studying them. "Who are you? Are you a Shinigami?" Lucian askes the boy before them. "No. I'm a Vizard like you two,"

the boy says. "My name is Spade Yamato: Lieutenant of Squad 14." The two boys look at him and smile. "So you're a Lieutenant and a Vizard huh?" Lestat

asks. "Yes. As a matter of fact you have already met two Vizards. Captain Kanin and his Lieutenant Michael are Vizards," Spade says, still looking at the

boys. Just then a man with blue hair tied into a pony tail with ocean blue eyes dressed in a white longslesve shirt with black trimming and baggy white pants

with what looks like part of a chinese dragon's mask walks up. He has a Zanpak-to on his left side. "Captain what are you doing here?" Spade askes with

surprise. "Captain?" the two boys ask at the same time. "Yes. This is my Captain, Nikolai." Spade says. "So you are the two new Vizards," the captain says

as he looks at them. "I am Captain Nikolai of Squad 14. I am an Arrancar." The two boys look in awe at the Arrancar. He smiles at them. " You two have

pretty decent spiritual pressure. We shall help you to train for your battle with the Oni," Nikolai says to the two boys.

The two boy go home and get into bed. "Lucian, what do you think we should do? We made that promise to Mom to stay in school, but we have a chance to

save the world. I don't know what we should do," Lestat says to Lucian. "We save the world. I mean they need us to help them. Why else would they have

helped us to become Vizards. We are stronger than we ever were as movie monsters. We have to use these powers to save this world," Lucian says to his

twin brother. They nod to each other and go to sleep. They wake up in the morning. They go to Urahara's shop in the back alley. They see Kanin, Herutsu,

Michael, Spade and Nikolai. They take a deep breath and walk up to all of them."We've been waiting for you boys. It's time to start your training," Nikolai says

to the boys. Kisuke walks out. "Ah! So you came. Well, lets get this party started," he says to them as he walks into the shop. They go to the underground

training area. Kisuke then knocks the boys out of their bodies and Lucian stands in his white outfit while Lestat stands in his black outfit. They look to

everyone and smile. "So what's first?" Lucian asks them. "Well, first you need to learn the name of your Zanpak-to," Kisuke says to them. "Oh, we already

know them," both boys say.

They draw their Zanpak-to and they hold them out. "Shatter, Aisu-Ookami," Lucian says with a smile as his Zanpak-to shatters and re-forms into a razor

sharp blade made of ice and the hilt re-shapes into a midieval type hilt with unknown runes on both sides. Lestat holds out his and smiles. "Freeze, Kanki

Ryu Ukiyo," Lestat says with a smile as his blade too shatters, but instead of re-forming into another blade it forms icy armor with frozen dragon wings on his

back and sharp claws on his hands and feet. The others look on in awe as they release their Zanpak-to. "How did you do that?" Herutsu askes them in shock.

"Oh, our Zanpak-to spoke to us in our dreams and they gave us their names. They said as long as we have strong hearts and minds we may use their power,"

Lestat says to the others. "Amazing. That is incredible," Kisuke says with a big smile. "Ok, now that's out of the way lets get started on the rest of your

training shall we? Spade, you and Michael shall spar with them." Michael and Spade nod and smile as they draw their Zanpak-to. "Burn, Hinote Urufu" Spade

says as his Zanpak-to engulfs in flames and trasforms into a claymore-like blade and he faces Lucian. "Burst, Houka Raion!" Michael says, twisting his blade

from the downward postion to the upright postion. It forms a bow which he points at Lestat.

They begin fighting. Lucian's and Spade's blades clash several times as they intend to end it early, both trying to show their skills. Lestat races, dodging

arrows being shot at him by Michael. They fight for hours, Lucian and Lestat showing no sign of wearing down. They stop and look at one another then back

to their opponents. Lestat takes his icy claw and swipes it across his face and pulls forth his mask. Michael looks in shock at him. Lucian smiles and holds

up his right hand and it starts glowing white, black, and red. He swipes his hand over his face and forms his mask. Spade too looks at them in shock. "How

did you guys learn to do that?" Nikolai askes them. "Oh, we fought our inner Hollows after we spoke to our Zanpak-to," Lucian says to them all. "Fine.

Michael, Spade you too use your masks," Kisuke says. Michael holds his hand in front of his face and flames burn, covering his face, forming a white and

fire red lion mask on his face while Spade holds his hand in front of his face and flames too cover his face. A demonic mask forms with two large horns

protruding from both sides with black slits in several places around it.

They once more start fighting. Their attacks become faster and more intense. Lucian's and Spade's blades clash, causing sparks of fire and ice burning and

freezing the area they are fighting in. Michael shoots arrows by the dozens while Lestat dodges and blocks, getting in close and slashing with great speed.

Michael switches his bow to a twin blade sword that's blades are facing the opposite directions. They start fighting one another with fierce attacks. Hours fly

by like minutes as their sparring match rages on. Kisuke stops the match. "Ok, that's enough. It's time to give you guys your fake souls," Kisuke says with

a smile. "Fake souls?" The boys ask. "Yes. These will allow you to jump out of your body and a fake soul will take your place," Kisuke says to the two boys.

He reaches into his pocket and hands them two dog style pez despensers that say Soul Candy on the side. "Eat one of these when you want to jump out of

your bodies." Herutsu says to the two boys. "And now it's time for you two to go home and get some rest. Tomorrow we will start training again. But this time

you will be facing Kanin and Nikolai, seeing as you can hold your own against Lieutenant's we shall see how well you do against Captain's," Kisuke says as

he exits the underground area. The two boys get into their body's and go home.

Back a Kisuke's shop Herutsu, Kanin, Nikolai, Michael and Spade sit at a table with Kisuke. "Kisuke, why are you helping those boys like this?" Kanin

askes. "Well, because they have what it takes to stop the Oni. You have sensed their Spiritual Pressure. And in one night, to learn the names of their

Zanpak-to along with being able to take control of their inner Hollow and use their mask without training to do it. They have the potentail to become the

greatest Shinigami to ever live," Kisuke replies. "Yes they do. They are so strong and only after one day of gaining their powers," Nikolai states. Herutsu

nods as well as the other. "So you intend to have those two boys fight the Oni by themselves?" Kanin askes."No. You're gonna help them. All of you,"

Kisuke says in reply to Kanin's questioning.
