Chapter 2

I do not own Bleach or any of the other characters in the bleach series. I do own the unnamed boy and any of the zanpakuto spirits that I come up with for some of the characters already established in the story.

"How about I call you . . . Shishi? Do you care if I do?" Kano asked the young boy.

"That is fine with me, Mr. . . ." Shishi exclaimed after thinking over the idea of finally having a name even if it is only temporary and not really his name.

"Just call me Kano!" he exclaimed," but now if you are going to survive in the wilds of Hueco Mundo I need to see where your skills with that broken sword of yours is at!"

"Wh . . . WHAT!" Shishi yelled before dodging a slash from Kano's zanpakuto that he unsheathed from his scabbard. Shishi ran over to where he saw his sword lying on the ground and grabbed it, with all of the adrenaline running through his system he was able to swing it without any problem blocking Kano's next attack. Shishi and Kano continued to trade blows until Shishi was unable to stand the weight of the sword that he was using to defend himself; Kano decided that that was enough to decide his current skill level.

"Shishi, tomorrow we will begin to train you on the proper techniques of sword play and also on some of the basics of kidou, so that you can protect yourself no matter what the situation is!" Kano exclaimed before leading Shishi toward the make-shift bed that he was to use for the night.

"Night, Kano!" the boy yelled to the retreating form of Kano, who went to the front of the cave to guard from menos.

The next morning . . .

"Take this Kano!" Shishi exclaimed before charging toward his new sensei and trying to slash him down the middle which Kano used his smaller sword to block with a simple flick of his wrist.

"Calm down, Shishi and focus on what you are doing!" Kano explained before allowing him to attack him and blocking them easily. This went on for about fifteen minutes until Shishi collapsed from the strain of hefting his heavy sword and Kano allowed him to rest for fifteen minutes. "Okay, Shishi you can rest for about fifteen minutes and then we will continue! We will practice sword play this way every day for at least two hours with a least a couple fifteen minute breaks in between each sparing session!" Kano explained while Shishi was lying on the ground panting and trying to catch his breath.

They continued on training this way for the rest of the two hours and already after only their first sparing practice session, Shishi was doing better holding his sword and fighting back against Kano's attack. "Next, we will practice using kido! To start with you need to learn how to manipulate the reiatsu needed to power each of the spells. First hold out your hand and practice trying to form an orb of pure reiatsu!" Kano explained the basics of what he wanted Shishi to practice for the next three hours. Shishi held out his hand and began to try and focus the reiatsu into his hand. At first nothing happened until a small orb started to form and that is when the shit hit the fan . . . Shishi continued to pull reiatsu into his hand until it was twice the size of Shishi's body and Kano had to tell him to either absorb it back into his hand or shoot it out. Shishi was able to absorb the power into his hand and he began to hear a three voices talking in his head.

"He is starting to remember the power that he once held! It is good because I have a feeling that an old friend of yours will return again, Lior!" once voice cried out.

"I know I can sense him to and if I was back into my original body, and then there is nothing that could stop me from destroying him and taking my revenge for what he did to me!" Lior growled.

"Hahahahahahahahahahahaha! What is the great Lior still upset because of his defeat by a lowly adjucha? If it was not for your defeat at the hands of Grimmjow then I would not be alive right now and that stupid original zanpakuto spirit would still be control of this boy . . ." a third voice called out.

"Be quiet, Kami you have no say in what happens to this boy! I will not allow a tainted spirit such as you; with both powers of soul reaper and hollow corrupt this boy! I don't even really like the fact that Lior is in this body, but I have no control over that!" Dokuji stated before finishing the conversation and being interrupted by Shishi.

"Who are you and why can I hear you inside of my mind?" Shishi asked while still working on his practice for the day.

"We are the spirits of your zanpakuto or at least two of are, now!" Dokuji growled with resentment at her last statement," My name is . . . and this is . . .! Oh it looks like you are not yet ready to hear our names, but the other being in this body makes up what you used to be, Lior!"

"LIOR! I HAD A DREAM THAT INVOLVED A LIONMAN THAT BODY WAS COVERED IN SKELETON LIKE ARMOR!" Shishi screamed out in his head.

"Yes that a glimpse into your past and will probably remember even more later on as more time goes on, but for right now I need to warn you to watch out for an adjucha that looks like a panther!" Lior exclaimed in warning to the young boy.

It has been two years since Kano found Shishi and began to train to train him in swordmanship and kidou. Shishi after that amount of time was finally able to wield his sword without any problems and can release his shikai form, which he discovered had a special ability that no other form was able to do, and his second shikai form. His first shikai form's name is Dokuji (or original) and its release phrase is 'Rise from the frosted earth!'; it takes the form of his finished unreleased form of his zanpakuto with a split near the end that forms two blade points, in the middle of the sword is three orbs with a power bar connecting all three with the guard of the sword. The second shikai form is named Kami (spirit) and its release phrase is 'Rise forth from the shadows!'; it takes the form of a scythe shaped great sword with many sharp points along the sides and also has three orbs and a rage bar connecting all three. Both forms have different powers from each other that Shishi has not been able to unlock just yet, except for the abilities of the three orbs of Kami (aura,shadow, and chaos) which allow him to not only make clones but gives him uniquely powered attacks different from any kind seen before, or at least to Kano.

Shishi had begun to help Kano with his patrols after hearing the tale of what happened to his companions many centuries ago when he first came to Hueco Mundo. On one fateful day he finally found his way out of the Forest of the Menos and ran back to tell Kano about his discovery, "Kano, I have discovered a way to get back to the main area of Hueco Mundo! Isn't that great that means that we can take on many different hollows instead of trying to get rid of just the menos?" Shishi screamed in excitement until he noticed the look on Kano's face.

"I'm sorry Shishi, but I am unable to leave because of the promise I made all those years ago to my friends! But that does not mean that you cannot leave and take on the top level of Hueco Mundo, you have learned well and have at least mastered the basics of what I could teach you! I knew that one day you would be ready to leave the Forest of Menos and I have prepared you the best that I could for that day, now go and help me fulfill my promise to eradicate as many hollows as can be!" Kano exclaimed before walking with Shishi to the exit that he found.

"Can I come back and visit you any time that I want, Kano?" Shishi called out in between holding back sobs.

"Of course and even though it is not your real name, you can keep the name Shishi if that is what you want. . ." Kano started before having to stop because of the giant hug that the boy was giving him.

"I will always go by Shishi even if I do eventually remember what my original name was, from this day forward I will be named Lior Shishi!" he exclaimed as loud as he could.

"But why Lior, I thought that the name scared you because of the dream that you had a few years ago after I found you?" Kano asked in curiosity.

"Ever since learning my shikai forms, I have been able to talk to the three other inhabitants in my inner world! One of those is Lior and according to him after he was attacked by an adjucha, I was born from his reverted form and so I will honor him by using his name as my first!" Lior explained," I plan on finding this adjucha for him in exchange for him to start teaching me to use some of his power as my own again!"

"Just remember that even though he is a part of your soul that he is still an arrancar and can be considered dangerous!" Kano warned before allowing Lior to leave the Forest.

After leaving his sensei, Lior began to once again travel across the desert in search for hollows to eradicate and the adjucha that attacked his inner arrancar years ago. He searched for an hour until he noticed three figures being attacked by a panther-like adjucha. "There he is, I will try and defeat him for you Lior!" he calls out in his head before charging toward the adjucha. Lior swung at the adjucha as soon as he got closer to it and managed to knick it before it could dodge. The adjucha immediately pounced toward him and Lior slashed him with a 'Choas Tiger Slash' toward his stomach that sent the adjucha back a few feet on his back.

"Who do you think that you are, boy? I will kill you for interfering with my meal! No one messes with Grimmjow and lives to tell about it anyway!" The adjucha growled.

"I will take revenge for your attack on my name sake!" Lior called out before parrying an attack from Grimmjow's claws.

"Who is your name sake, boy?" he growled back after attacking again.

"LIOR!" he called out before parrying the attack again and using his attack against the adjucha again. The two continued to fight back and forth until the adjucha decided that he could not get anywhere with this fight and ran off to fight again.

"YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE LAST OF ME LIOR!" Grimmjow screamed as he ran across the dune away from the vengeful child.

"Are you three all right?" Lior asked the people that Grimmjow was in the middle of attacking a few minutes ago.

"Yes, Nel is okay!" the little girl arrancar answered before checking on the others.

"What are you doing walking around a dangerous place like this without any protection? I mean I know that you are an arrancar and can probably take care of yourself, but still!" Lior asked.

This is the next installment and now a new arrancar has reared he head. What could this Nel have in store for our hero and when will Grimmjow face off against Lior again? Some of that will be answered in the next installment of the Unnamed.
