DISCLAIMER..I DONT OWN BLEACH

CH2

Mitsuomi sits on the roof of Las Noches staring blankly at the moon, then to the sword next him but it no longer resembled the blade he knew. The sword looked now like a Scottish claymore with a pure white blade and black hilt, "what sword is this?" he thought.

"Its my contribution to our merger" a voice states. Mitsuomi glanced over to see his hollow next to him with the sword between them. The hollow is a carbon copy of him but has white hair with a black streak and a blue left eye, "You..." he states.

"Ha..you actually thought I was dead...Baka!...we merged...but it wasn't without a sacrifice" the hollow states. Mitsuomi's eyes flicker, "Zetsuei...I can't hear her voice..." he whispers.

"She's gone...but she's not dead...because you're not...some how that thing sosuke used...purged her from us...Remember you are no longer a soul reaper but the anthesis of what we were before...No Longer are we a soul reaper with hollow powers but a hollow with soul reapers powers...thus the new sword" the hollow explains. Mitsuomi rises to his feet and picks up the sword to unsheath it, "what is its name...but what about Tsukiyomi and my other unique abitlties?" he asked.

"They are still there but we'll have to perfect them to your new body...As for its name..Its called Hellonic Chaos...its release will awaken your hollow powers..kinda like a bankai" the hollow states. The hollow looks mitsuomi in the eye, "for now...Sosuke has us at disadvantage...So lets make him regret underestimating us" he states, extending his hand. Mitsuomi grips the hand as their biceps flex, "Sosuke will rue the day he crossed us" mitsuomi smirks and he nods, "Ohh Yea" the hollow grins, vanishing. Mitsuomi returns inside Las Noches to be stopped by Aizen, "mitsuomi..I have mission for you" he states. Mitsuomi stands suspicious, "a mission..already" he replies. Aizen crosses his arms, "Yes..I would like you to go to the world of the living..to observe..accumulate yourself to the new world...go to the city of karakura but be mindful of your reiatsu...do not engage unless provoked" he explains. Mitsuomi bows slightly, "of course...but Sosuke..I'll follow you for now...Only for Now" he states. Tosen appears quietly, "Kaname..take him to his new living quarters and provide him with his new uniform" aizen orders. Tosen bows as mitsuomi passes him as he leads mitsuomi to his wing of las noches and explained the rules of the espada. Mitsuomi entered the large mansion like palace, "figures" he thought, finding the bedroom. The bedroom had a large bed with a large closet and adjoining bathroom with a large tub. The palace also had a large balcony, overlooking the endless sand and large red pilars with sunny daylight, instead to perpetual night. Mitsuomi opened the closet to find varoius sizes of arrancar uniforms and sandals, "hmm..." he thought, picking a pair of skinny white pants and a white jacket outlined in black with a white vest. Also some white gloves outlined in black, "will have to do for now" he whispers. Mitsuomi takes the clothes in the bathroom and starts the water for the tub and he climbs in as the steam billows from the hot water.

"So do you have the gist of the rules?" his hollow asked. Mitsuomi sunk deeper in the tub, "yes...Espada 4th and above can not release in las noches...espada are allowed fraccions...also you need a name" he thought. The hollow chuckled, "Fine..just call me Roku" he stated and mitsuomi shook his head, "Baka" he thought. Mitsuomi grabbed a pair scissors, cutting his hair down to his shoulder and washing it throughly, he finished his bath and exited the bathroom in his new uniform but instead of sandals, kept his calf length black english riding boots. Mitsuomi stared at the number zero on his right palm, "we should head out" he whipsers, going to the balcony. Mitsuomi performs several handsigns and a garganta opens, "here we go" he thought, leaping inside as it snapped closed behind him.

*Karakura Town*

A garganta opens high above the city as mitsuomi steps out, the sun sets in distance as he land on a building. Mitsuomi observes the hustle and bustle of the city, "its changed a great deal" he thought.

"I can sense a few high reiatsus as well..must be what sosuke meant...we should cautious...try using Ryu Shokei" roku stated. Mitsuomi performed a handsign and a barrier sprung up, "I don't sense a change" he thought, jumping to the street. Mitsuomi strolled the streets to see several people and wandering souls, "I see...this town...is filled with high reishi...no wonder hollows come here" he thought.

"True...maybe Sosuke wants something here" roku replies. Mitsuomi walks into a store seeing strange foods and drinks also magazines, "strange..riceballs in small packages and something called instant ramen" he whispers. Mitsuomi observes someone fixing ramen, "thirty seconds in the microwave" the person states. Mitsuomi continues watching and understands how it works. Mitsuomi grabs several riceballs and a carton of menthols with a zippo, "so tobacco..is like this now...interesting" he whispers, lighting the cigarette. Mitsuomi continues sightseeing but stops seeing a building called a library, entering he finds hundreds of books and immerses himself. After about six hours of reading, finds himself throughly caught up on world events. Mitsuomi sonidos atop a watertower, "a Hundred Years...that what he stole me..." he whispers, opening a garganta.

#######

Mitsuomi returns to Hueco Mundo but not Las Noches, instead going to the outskirts, he surpresses his reiatsu after sensing several hollows. The hollows watch him intently, "he's human sized but his power is weak" one sneered.

"Tasty...he looks like those arrancar" another stated. Mitsuomi chuckled slightly as the number of hollows reached a baker's dozen, "looks like an audience" he thought.

"Then..lets obilige them" roku chuckles. Mitsuomi stopped in his tracks but crosses his arms with his left index pointed out, "Huh?...he stopped" one growled, when the hollow next to him fell to the sand. The bird hollow looked to see a smoking hole in the head of the hollow next to him, "impossible...it couldnt have been come him" he hissed. A crab hollow snapped its claws when a blast struck his claw, "Huh?" he uttered before, falling dead. The other hollows flared their power, realizing something was attacking them but could not see the attacker, "Having Trouble" mitsuomi chuckled. The hollows growled as they flared their reiatsu and charged him but mitsuomi focused his power and simply raising his index and middle finger upward. The hollows were killed by the sudden surge of power and quick surpression, "Good work...now...head to that tall rock over yonder" roku states. Mitsuomi stares at the fifty foot rock face, "this shoud be far enough away..but don't release..just focus on basics for now...this sword is of a different weight than before" roku stated. Mitsuomi drew his new sword, spinning the blade in his hand and notices that the sword is slightly heavier but not by much. Mitsuomi starts with some random swings but they become more focused and precise. Soon invisible slashes strike the sand, "my quicksword is faster now and more precise" he whispers, swinging at the third and first rock in a row of three but leaving the second unharmed. Mitsuomi continued putting his new body through its paces but now its was hand to hand, he struck a large rock with a flurry of right jabs and heavy left punches but only small impacts were left in the fifty foot tall rock, "add more power to your punches...the power is yours to command...So tell me what do you hate?" roku states, manifesting behind him. Mitsuomi punches the rock with his left, "Sosuke Aizen" he replies.

"Not enough...what do you Really hate" roku asks. Mitsuomi stops with a glare, "That I was Powerless to stop him" he replies, punching the rock harder. The rock cracks slightly, "Still not enough...remember...your Resolve...Meyrin..Your mother...Saya...they were taken away from you beacuse you were too weak" roku states.

"Yes..." mitsuomi replies.

"Now Zetsuei is gone...beacause of your weakness" roku states, tossing mitsuomi his sword. Mitsuomi swings the sword at the rock, "I failed her...its my fault" he states.

"Yes..you were not strong enough to protect her" roku states.

"Yes..." mitsuomi replies. The sword starts to swirl with black energy, "If you don't get stronger...Innocent People Will Die" roku shouts. Mitsuomi lets out a mighty war cry as he cleaves to rock in half from top to bottom with a huge plume of sand, "Strength..real strength comes from truth...Zetsuei and I were born from you...You have all the power inside" roku states. Mitsuomi sighs sheathing his sword, "you sound like zetseui" he states.

"Maybe but we need to find her" roku replies.

"But how..where can she be?" mitsuomi asks.

"I don't know" roku replies, as mitsuomi returns to las noches.

#######

The weeks go by as mitsuomi immerses himself among the espada but changes come quickly, Neliel is ousted as the third espada through unknown reasons but is replaced by newcomer Tia Halibel. The espada as aizen feels is now complete with Mitsuomi as the Zero, Stark as Primera, Barragan as Segunda, Tia as the Tres, Ulquiorra, Nnoitra, Grimmjow, Zommari, Granz and Aaroniero, including their fraccions. Mitsuomi is nowhere in his search for zetsuei but today lady luck would give him a little headway. Mitsuomi strolled by the pits as it was called, it was used to pick the números for the army. Mitsuomi saw some of other espada searching for more fraccion. The first pit had the most noise and saw Barragan watching with his fraccion, "he thinks of himself as some kind of God king" he thought.

"He was the king of hueco mundo..yanno...i'm amazed sosuke got some many to serve him" roku replies.

"He's just a smooth talker" mitsuomi thought. Mitsuomi saw Barragan go straight for a mammoth hollow and bring him into his faction as he strolled to the second pit. The second pit wasn't as lively as the first but when they saw mitsuomi watching, their vigor picked up and the fighting intensified. Mitsuomi reached in his pocket pulling a pack of cigarettes and lighting one with his zippo, "Mindless...see someone of status and they run wild" he whispers. Mitsuomi peers over to third pit but saw no one, "figures...only the weak...as they would say" he thought.

"True...but strength isnt everything" roku replies. Mitsuomi strolls over to the third pit with his hands in his pockets, "only weaklings and rejects in there..Zero" grimmjow chuckles, from his spot. Mitsuomi ignored grimmjow as he peered in the pit and like in the second pit, seeing him the vigor was renewed but something caught his eye. Mitsuomi saw at the far corner three hollows fighting in a group but something was behind them, "they're almost protecting it" roku states.

"Tashikani" mitsuomi replies. Mitsuomi squats down to get a better look with his cigarette hanging from his mouth, "two attack and one defends..smart...they use the corner to their advantage...its doesnt seem like a shaky alliance but a genunie one" he states.

"You are correct" a voice states. Mitsuomi glances up to see Tia standing next to him with her arms folded under her breasts, "I take it you know them?" he asks. Tia pointed towards the trio, "the deer is Apacci...the lioness is Mila Rose and the snake is Sun-Sun...I found them and we helped each other...they willl be my fraccion" she explains. Mitsuomi stands up not taking his eyes off the fight, "the fourth...the one they're protecting?" he asks.

"Never gave a name...I deduced it couldnt speak but was skilled" tia replies. Mitsuomi blows a puff smoke dropping into the pit, the fighting quickly stops as the hollows fall over themselves to get out of his path. However one foolish and cocky hollow charged, only to a receive a small right jab but it fell over with an exploded head. Mitsuomi approaches the trio as they back more into the corner, "Easy...I just wanna see the thing you're hiding" he states, with a smile. The lion growls and the snake hisses, "Stay back...Bastard" the deer states.

"Apacci thats enough" a voice states. Mitsuomi glances back to see Tia, "Master Halibel...forgive us" the three states, as they part to revealing a hollow. The hollow resembled a small deer sized dragon but what struck mitsuomi was its eyes, one blue and the other red, "could it be..." he thought.

"Not sure" replies roku. Mitsuomi kneels to the small dragon and it growls but relents seeing his blue eye, "I don't know if you can understand me but you interest me...how bout you follow me" he smiles. The little dragon looks at him curiously but places a claw on his extended hand, "I'll be taking this liitle one with me..if you don't mind" he stated.

"I see...come girls" tia states. Mitsuomi hoists the little dragon his shoulder as they leapt from the pit and made their way to aizen. Mitsuomi and Tia arrive at the chamber just as Barragan exits with his newest additions but mitsuomi walks past them. Tia acknowledges him but mitsuomi does not, "Your insolence...knows no bound...You are in the Presence of God King Barragan Luisenbarn...Bow you...shinigami turned hollow" states one of barragan's men. The little dragon on his shoulder hisses but mitsuomi taps its side, "Ohh..is that right...Well Mercy me...I'm shaking in my boots" he states, with obvious sarcasm. Barragan glares as he turns to mitsuomi, "You are a Disgrace to the espada...You were once a soul reaper but for Aizen to make you the zero..Is an Insult" he states. Mitsuomi glances back, "If you wanna fix that..I'll be waiting" he states, entering the chamber. Aizen sits in his chair as mitsuomi and the others enter, "Ahh..Zero...Tres...I see you have chosen" he states. Tia deeply bows, "Yes Lord Aizen" she states and mitsuomi nods, "Yea..If I hadn't found this liitle one..I wouldn't of had any" he states, dropping the little dragon off his shoulder. The little dragon growled at aizen but relented when mitsuomi thumped its head, "A pecicular hollow" aizen states, reaching his coat. Aizen pointed the Hougyoku at the little dragon and tendrils shot forth, it tried to stand but quickly fell as its body started to glow.

The light died down leaving a young girl in place of the dragon, who had short shoulder length red hair. As she stood mitsuomi got a look at her mask fragment, which was like his but on her right side and her hole the left side of her chest. Mitsuomi slipped off his coat, drapping it over the girl's shoulders and picked up her zanpakuto, which was a katana with a black and white hilt but the sword was as tall as she was, which was four foot five inches. The girl bowed to aizen and to Tia before taking her place next to mitsuomi, "I'll be leaving sosuke" he states. Aizen waves a hand, "By all means" he replies. Mitsuomi walks the halls of las noches with his little fraccion in tow, "still won't talk huh" he muses but she only looks at him, "hmm.." the girl replies. Mitsuomi continued to walk with his hands in his pockets, "well good things comes to those wait huh?" he muses. Mitsuomi entered his wing as the girl followed with her feet patting on the floors, he lead her to the bath and found some clothes for her. Mitsuomi sat on his balcony as the girl showered, "they look similar but can it be her" roku states.

"Dunno" mitsuomi replies. The girl slowly walks out the bathroom in her new uniform of white pants and a long white tailcoat, "ready to tell me your name?" he asks. The girl stands silent but suddenly grabs his waist in a tight hug, "Mitsuketa" she whispers.

"Ahh...you found me...Zetsuei" mitsuomi smiles. Zetsuei sits down next to him, "how did this happen?" he asks.

"I dont know..when we were...I woke up in the menos forest as a hollow...then...I found Master Halibel" zetsuei states.

"Must be because of our power...some of my hollow power fused to her..I dont know" roku states, manifesting. Mitsuomi grabbed zetsuei in a hug to him it didnt matter how but was glad she was ok, "so what now?" she asks.

"We play along for now...till we figure this out" mitsuomi replies.

#########

Mitsuomi walked the hall of las noches with zetsuei in tow, when he saw grimmjow and his fraccion walk past, "don't tell anyone but we're going to have some fun" he smirks.

"Right grimmjow" stated one of his fraccion named shawlong. Mitsuomi leaned on the wall, "interesting..feel like taking a trip?" he asked.

"Sure I guess" zetsuei replies. Mitsuomi follows grimmjow outside to see him enter a garganta, "come on" he states, opening his own. Mitsuomi and zetsuei arrive in karakura, just as a huge flame erupts far from them, "seems the fighting has started" he stated, as they landed on a building. Mitsuomi closed his eyes focusing his senses, "three...no four captain class reiatsu...three Lts...but they're struggling..must be the Gentei Reiin" he stated.

"What do we do?" zetsuei asked.

"I want you to observe the other battles...I'll follow Grimmjow...but stay out of sight" mitsuomi replies.

"Right.." zetsuei states, vanishing with sonido. Mitsuomi lands on a building just as grimmjow's reiatsu flares, "not one to hold back" he whispers, watching the battle. Grimmjow blocks his opponent's blade with his bare forearm and blowing the person away, "so he's the fourth one but his reiatsu is fluxuating wildly...dont know about the hair though..orange" he thought. The orange haired soul reaper raised his blue reiatsu higher and higher, his large sword was quickly replaced with a sleek black katana. Mitsuomi's eyes darted rapidly as he watched the fight, "grimmjow is clearly overpowering him..despite the bankai" he thought.

"Indeed but the kid's got moxy...he must be new to the game...no kido or hakuda" roku stated. Grimmjow struck the soul reaper with a thunderous kick, sending him to the ground but from the smoke, a blast of black energy accented with red struck grimmjow. Mitsuomi watched grimmjow cackle widly, going for his sword but was stopped by tosen, they exchange words and tosen opens a garganta. Mitsuomi glanced to the orange hair, "that attack..interesting" he thought.

"Mitsuomi!" a voice shouted, turning he saw zetsuei. Zetsuei dropped down next to him, "so what happened with the other battles?" mitsuomi asked.

"Its like you said..once the limters were ceased...the battles were over quickly...all of them are dead...Where's grimmjow?" zetsuei replies. Mitsuomi crosses his arms, "he left...tosen stepped in...No doubt sosuke is tiffed...come on lets head back" he stated tapping the air. The garganta opened with zetsuei entering first followed by mitsuomi but before it closed, he caught a glimpse of the orange hair, "get stronger kid" he thought, as it snapped closed.

Mitsuomi arrived back at his wing to find someone waiting, "to what do I owe the pleasure...Halibel" he stated, tossing his coat on a sofa. Zetsuei bowed to Tia as she entered behind mitsuomi, "I wanted to speak with you concerning a rumor" tia stated. Mitsuomi plopped on the sofa, "alrite shoot?" he replies. Tia crossed her legs, "Is it true...what Barragan's fraccion said...you were once a soul reaper...because some of the arrancar don't trust you...you openly...disrespect Lord Aizen...You have taunted Barragan...You seem cocky but the way you interact with her seems to suggest otherwise" tia stated. Mitsuomi crossed his legs as he lit a cigarette, "To anwser your first question...I was a soul reaper...but I possessed the powers of a hollow as well...also Zetsuei was actually my zanpakuto...Now concerning Sosuke...never trusted him..and never will...As for Barragan...all he gotta do is find me" he explains. Tia stares at zetsuei then to mitsuomi, "its true..Master Halibel..Ive known him all his life...He's not one to minced words but if he trusts you..well its to the death" zetsuei states. Mitsuomi shifts in his seat as zetsuei decides to make tea, "I'm glad you came..I have proposition for you" he states and she arches an eyebrow, "what kind?" tia replies. Mitsuomi sighs softly, "As you know War is on the horizon...and well...Sosuke is confident but i'm not...which why I propose an alliance between you and me" he explains. Zetsuei returns with the tea, "do you expect me to serve you?" tia asked.

"No...this alliance is a partnership...you and I are alike but different...Sacrifice...Its something we both know quite well..." mitsuomi states, sipping his tea. Tia raised the glass to her lips drinking the strange liquid through her mask fragment, "Yes...Sacrifice of ones comrades to survive or the leader's sacrifice to save his comrades...are you the same?" she stated. Mitsuomi leaned forward slightly, "In a way but for me...I sacrifice any and all to achieve my goal...I'd rather not see you sacrifice yourself for him" he states. Tia shifts in her seat, "I owe Lord Aizen my life and the lives of my fraccion...If not for him..we would be dead" she states. Mitsuomi draps an arm over the back of the sofa, "I see then shouldn't you be stronger as well as your fraccion...Sosuke may know the Gotei13 but so do I..they will send their best...so why not be ready to face them" he explains. Mitsuomi rises from his seat, "I'd like to train your fraccion...together they can survive but individually...is a different story...at best combined they are about a fourth or third seat level but if let me train them..I can make them a force to be reckoned with" he states. Tia rose from her seat, "why go through the trouble?" she asks, as they walk out on his balcony.

"Maybe its a thank you for protecting Zetsuei...or maybe its beacuse you have a genuine rapport with your fraccion...unlike the other espada...give me until the war...they will be in my care till then and zetsuei in yours" mitsuomi replies. Tia stands silent with her arms crossed, "Alrite...I'll accept...I'll inform them and you may come get them later" she states, vanishing with sonido. Mitsuomi stood silent as zetsuei approached, "why are you doing this?" she asked.

"Dunno...for fun..boredom..are maybe its to stick it to sosuke...but we need partners...but if comes down it..I may sacrifice her to get what I want" mitsuomi stated, with a smirk.
