It has taken some time, but here comes the next chapter. A few things first, though. The timeline; the moment Ulquiorra died, that was the moment Harry fell unconscious in this story. That means that at this point in time, the war against Aizen has been over for less than a month. That in turn will mean that once Harry/Ulquiorra is done with Voldemort and Britain, the Fullbringer Arc will have just begun once he reaches Japan.
Secondly, the Kidô. Most of the Kidô Harry/Ulquiorra uses will be a variation of the canon Kidô the Shinigami's uses, but in Spanish, and with slightly different names, but a few will be created by me. For example; Shakkahô (Red Fire Cannon) will be Toma Fuego Carmesí (Crimson Fire Shot) and Byakurai (White Lightning) will be Trueno Negro (Black Thunder). That being said, since I don't speak Spanish, I have to rely on Google Translate, so if I make any mistakes, please don't be too harsh. I will explain the home-made spells at the end of the chapter.
WARNING: This chapter contains mentions of rape, some of it on underage children. This is due to Greybacks habit of targeting children, thus the probability of those that follow him having even sicker tastes not being that far-fetched. Please don't hate me for this.
With a sound of static, a young man appears in front of an old house somewhere in London. The man was fair skinned, with midnight black hair and green cat-like eyes. With a neutral look on his face, he observe the houses around him, and slowly moves towards the area between house number 11 and 13. The man stops when the sound of three soft plops comes from behind him. Turning around, he gazes over the three men he had left on a beach somewhere in northern Britain just moments ago.
As they got closer to him, Dumbledore began speaking; "Harry, my boy..." But he was cut off by Ulquiorra.
"As I have already told you, Dumbledore, 'Harry' is no more. But, as it would be... unwise to remain in the open for too long, I would recommend we enter Blacks home."
Sirius immediately went up to the door, unlocked it and ushered them inside. Once inside, Ulquiorra used Pesquisa to determine who was in the house. It turned out that, aside for the four of them, only two more persons was in the house. One was on the top floor, while the other was in the kitchen. Based on their aura, they were related to each other. Turning to Sirius, he asked; "I can feel the presence of two other persons in the house, but I don't recognize them. Who are they?"
"That would be my cousin Andromeda Tonks, and her daughter Nymphadora." Sirius answered. "About half a year ago, Andy and her husband Ted were attacked by Death Eaters, and Ted died. Not long after that, Tonks apartment were destroyed, so I offered them both a place to stay. They agreed, and have lived here since then."
"I see..." *CRASH*
The sound of something hitting the floor was suddenly heard from the kitchen, followed by a string of curses. This led to the cover for one of the paintings to be removed, and the woman in the painting starting to hurl verbal abuse towards the people in the hallway. Well, at least until she noticed the black-haired, green-eyed man raise one hand towards her. The last thing she heard was the man saying 'trash', before her painting was destroyed.
The three men stared at the hole which once was a painting, before turning their eyes to Ulquiorra, who was lowering his right hand. Dumbledore was about to say something, but was interrupted by the sound of footsteps coming down the stairs and out from the kitchen.
Down the stairs came a woman with light brown hair. She was around the mid-forties, yet still a stunning woman. She was dressed in a loose, white shirt and formfitting jeans, and she had her wand raised in case the house was under attack.
From the kitchen, a younger woman came out, also with her wand raised. She had pink hair in a pixie cut, and were dressed in muggle punk clothes. She was in her twenties, and despite the differences in style and hair colour, you could see that the two women were related. As they saw the men standing in the hallway, they asked; "What in Merlin's name is going on?"
Sirius smiled at the two. "Ah, 'Dromeda, Nym! It would appear that my dear departed mother insulted the wrong person at last!"
"What do you mean Siri?" Andromeda asked, looking upon him with a stern gaze, arms crossed and tapping her foot. To her surprise, it was a cold emotionless voice that answered her.
"It was trash, and as such, it was removed."
Turning slightly to the right, she locked gaze with two cold, green, cat-like eyes. Blinking for a moment, she took in the owner of those eyes. It was a young man, standing about 5'5, with pale skin and pitch black, messy hair that fell down to his shoulders. His face showed no emotions, and he was dressed in dirty grey clothes.
Turning back towards Sirius, she asked; "Who is this?"
It was Dumbledore that answered.
"Ah, Andromeda, my dear", he began. "This is Harry…" Only to be interrupted by the green-eyed man.
"As I told you before, Dumbledore, Harry Potter is no more. I am Ulquiorra Cifer, the Cuatro Espada."
Tonks reacted to that statement.
"Harry?" She looked at Ulquiorra before, turning to Dumbledore. "What happened to him, and why does he claim he isn't Harry?"
Before Dumbledore could answer, Ulquiorra did.
"What I meant, Nymphadora, is that Harry Potter perished in prison, and I, who should be dead, took his place."
"What do you mean, 'took his place'? AND DON'T CALL ME NYMPHADORA!"
"Why? It is your name, is it not? As for taking his place, I'm not sure. All I know is that Harry fell unconscious in his cell, and dreamt about me. He saw my memories, from the first to the last. After seeing me fall in battle, my body slowly disintegrating in front of the only person who had made me feel anything in millennia, he watched as my world grew dark. Yet, it wasn't he that woke up, but me."
The five people listening were speechless after his explanation, though some of them (Dumbledore, Lupin and Andromeda) looked slightly sick, but for different reasons. Dumbledore though Harry (yes, he was still in denial about the whole thing, despite the evidence) had turned dark and used some sort of demonic ritual in order to become what he now was. Lupin, on the other hand, was unnerved by what his inner wolf was telling him. For some reason, the familiar scent of his pup, was overshadowed by a smell of death and… nothingness? It was as if the being now inhabiting Harry contained nothing, and the thought of that made him sick due to the wrongness of it all.
Andromeda, though, only felt sick due to her thinking about still being alive while your own body disintegrated.
Sirius and Tonks, though, were just slightly shocked. Tonks was an Auror, and thus somewhat used to strange and/or disturbing situations, and Sirius… Well, Sirius was both from a dark family and had spent 12 years in Azkaban, thus making him slightly unhinged.
Before they could continue, a patronus appeared, and the voice of Kingsley Shacklebolt rang out.
"Professor Dumbledore, Death Eaters are attacking Diagon Alley! The Dark Lord is not with them, but they have several werewolves led by Fenrir Greyback. The Aurors are locked out by wards, and we need help quickly."
With that, the patronus disappeared. While the other five stood in shock, Ulquiorra simply turned and walked towards the door. Just as he was about to open it, he was stopped by Sirius.
"Harry, where are you going?" Sirius asked, with his hand on Ulquiorras shoulder.
Ulquiorra slowly turned his head and gave Sirius a cold stare. "Remove your hand, dog."
Sirius dropped his hand in shock at, as he thought, Harry's cold tone and look.
"As for where I'm going," Ulquiorra continued. "While I don't care for the people here, the sooner I can get rid of the trash that call itself Voldemort, the sooner I can return to her."
With that, he opened the door and disappeared with the sound of static. The sound of the door closing shook the five people standing in the hallway out of their stupor, and most of them began franticly get ready to go to help those attacked. While Sirius, Remus and Dumbledore were ready to go, Tonks had to run up the stairs in order to get her gear before they could apparate to the Leaky Cauldron and Diagon Alley.
Diagon Alley
A few seconds after he left Grimmauld Place, Ulquiorra appeared just outside the wards that trapped the people in Diagon Alley. Standing on top of a building, he could see the red dressed Aurors and the members of the Order of the Phoenix gathering outside the Leaky Cauldron, trying to bring down the wards, as the Death Eaters slowly made their way down the Alley, casting spells to cripple, maim and kill on everyone they could see. Further down the Alley, he could see maybe five or six men dressed in rags, attacking the fleeing people with just their hands and teethes. They must be the werewolves under Fenrir Greybacks command, he thought.
He could see the path they had taken down the Alley, as it were littered with the mutilated corpses of those who hadn't been fast enough. Amongst those fallen, some of the women had destroyed clothes, and claw-marks around their waist and chest area and a torn out throat. A few of the violated women couldn't be older than thirteen.
While he didn't care about the people down in the Alley, the simple fact that one of the women could have been her, caused him to unconsciously raise his spiritual pressure. More so the fact that, if the trash wasn't stopped, the likelihood of it being her rose exponentially.
Gathering his powers in front of him, he ripped open a hole in the wards and stepped through. Landing on the ground behind the Death Eaters, he used a spell he had never needed to use before.
"Hechizo de alma muerta: Barrera de Bloqueo del Alma"
Suddenly, a pressure filled the Alley, and the spells cast by the Death Eaters stopped working. After trying to cast some more spells, but without success, the Death Eaters started to look around for a cause. Once they saw Ulquiorra, they called the werewolves over and surrounded him. One of the werewolves stepped forward, smiling sadistically, thinking the lone male would be an easy target. As the werewolf came closer, Ulquiorra simply raised his hand and pointed his index finger at the werewolf, saying in a clear yet cold voice; "Hechizo de alma muerta #4; Trueno Negro", before a black light, thick as a man's thigh, shot from his finger and pierced the werewolf's chest, killing him instantly.
The Death Eaters and the werewolves was shocked for a moment, before the werewolves became enraged and attacked en masse. Ulquiorra simply stood there as the werewolves charged him, with his hands in his pockets. When the first werewolf reached him and tried to grab him, he simply backhanded it across its face, breaking its neck in the process and throwing it into a wall.
Next, two werewolves attacked him at the same time. Dodging the first, he did a spin kick, catching the other in mid-air and kicking it into the first, throwing both of them into another wall, both werewolves internal organs damaged beyond repair by the force of the kick. The fourth werewolf was able to grab him, but a simple hip toss put it on the ground, where he destroyed its skull with a stomp. With only two werewolves left, Ulquiorra jumped up into the air, before pointing his hand towards them.
"Hechizo de alma muerta #31; Toma Fuego Carmesí"
A crimson orb of energy sprang from his hand and hit the werewolves head on. The werewolves didn't even have time to scream in pain, as they were instantly turned to ashes by a conflagration of crimson fire. By now, everyone had stopped and was staring at the young man that had killed six werewolves without even breaking a sweat. The Death Eaters were getting really nervous. They had tried to apparate away once he had killed the last of the werewolves, but found to their surprise that they couldn't. And to their horror, their portkeys didn't work either.
Now, all they could do was to watch as the pale, black-haired young man slowly made his way towards them. Stopping less than 10 feet away from the group of Death Eaters, Ulquiorra brought up his hands to about chest height, pressing them together. A green light, similar to the colour of the Killing Curse, shone out from between his palms, casting a sickly glow over his face.
"All trash shall be erased", he said, slowly pulling apart his hands, leaving a solid mass of glowing green energy in their wake. Grabbing the energy like a sword, he stared at the Death Eaters with cold, cat-like eyes.
"Luz de la Luna"
With a burst of speed, he was suddenly amongst the Death Eaters, his blade ready to strike. Within seconds, the majority of the Dark Lords followers were dead. Some had their heads cut of, others were bisected while a few had been pierced through their chest, either by the blade or simply by Ulquiorras hand. Soon, only two Death Eaters were alive. Having soiled themselves, they lay on the ground, shivering. Turning towards them, Ulquiorra let his spiritual pressure fall on them, filling them with despair.
Piercing them with his gaze, he spoke. "Return to the trash you call master, and tell him; His end is near, and soon, his greatest fear will come true."
Removing the barrier, he watched as the two Death Eaters used their portkeys to leave, before turning to the gathering of Aurors and order members that stood right outside the wards. Sighing, he closed his eyes. He didn't like dealing with trash.
There! The chapter is done, and we are almost halfway through the story. One or two chapters more in order to deal with Voldemort, and then another two or three chapters in order to deal with the Bleach part. And now, the explanation to the spells.
Hechizo del alma muerta: Spell of the dead soul (Instead of Hadou or Bakudou)
Trueno Negro: Black Thunder (Instead of Byakurai/White Lightning)
Toma Fuego Carmesí: Crimson Fire Shot (Instead of Shakkahou/Red Fire Cannon)
Barrera de Bloqueo del Alma: Barrier of the soul
This last one is a creation of my own. It works like this; the user uses his or her own spiritual energy to lock down all other types of energies. This require the user to be many times stronger than those he or she face. That means the user has at least an Espada-class Arrancar for it to work on anything above a seated officer in the Shinigami Corps. Only the top four Espada would be powerful enough for this skill to work on a Lieutenant, and all captain-class Shinigamis are basically immune to it. This means, while the spell was kind of useless against Shinigamis, it's a perfect spell to use against magic users.
I hope you all enjoy the story.
