I'm gonna start writing in different P.O.V's. Hope you enjoy this.
Lunas P.O.V
Nothing...I see nothing but darkness. Yet I can feel the earth below me and a hand? I have to wake up, I must know if it's one of my sisters. Willing myself to get up, I can taste sea water. I can hear the current move in multiple directions. I can also hear breathing, though I'm not sure if it's mine or one of my sisters. Finally opening my eyes, I see the ocean, I'm on a ship and I'm sleeping next to a woman... with violent scarlet red hair? I try to get up but the floor seems to be rocking back and forth. I end up deciding to just stay quiet and sit down, thats when I begin thinking, the only possible explination as to where I am, it's a dream.
There is no way I would be on a ship, in the middle of the sea, with a woman this beautiful. Her hair is very long and reached her lower back, some strands were in small braids while others were in dreads. It was loosely tied in a semi high ponytail, some stands of loose hair and dreads adorned the sides of her face and some contained ornimants, feathers, or shells. She wore a toptie renaissance shirt that was held together by one large belt and two smaller ones crisscrossing the large belt. The belts showed off the woman's curves, she had a nice bust and her waist was thin. Her hips were wide and her tight pants only emphasized them. She wore heeled boots that boosted her around 2 or so in inches.
'I see your up now huh kid?' the woman said as she opened her eyes, she then stood up and held her hand out for me to grab and steady myself. Just before i rached out i noticed deep blue eyes, I then took her hand rather quickly as the ship rocked violently for a while. She only laughed and placed her hands on her hips as she let go of me. Her voice was rough yet gentle, and it was also somewhat seductive. (Like Sarah Fortune from League of legends or like Rangiku's voice but a bit more rougher.). That's when I realized something...
'That dagger, is it yours?'
'Of course they're mine, it's not like I stole it or something.' the lady stated as if it was common knowledge. Just then I was about to ask another question, she placed a finger to her lips.
'I guess since you just recently died, I'll tell you. My name is Odayakana Nami and I'm your Zanpakuto. Ya see this dagger? I can turn into it kid, and I have so much power to mamke you stronger.' the woman said pointing to herself before pointing at the dagger. Now that I have a better look at it, the dagger was diffrent from when i first used it. The blade itself was around 7 inches. The hilt had a white, gold, and fire red fish scale design, and was around 4 1/2 inches. The blade of the dagger had a snake like shape to it and both edges had small razor like waves adorning it like a sharks mouth. This was around 11 1/2 inches but compared to the first time i used it, it lookes shorter.
'But wait, I thought I had two daggers?' before the woman could answer, the door near us was kicked open, a rather buff and tall man walked out and made his way towards us. Though I was shocked with fear, I looked down to see the other dagger in his right hand.
'And this big oaf is Arekuruu Shio. He's the other dagger you wield.' the man glared at the woman with icy blue green eyes, his entire body was tanned and his hair was pale blonde. He didn't have a shirt on and had rather loose pants held together by a belt and he didn't have any boots or shoes on. He had tribal like tattoos adorning his chest and arms, along with some scars, but the largest one was on his back.
I then took a better look his dagger, which was also different from the last time she saw them. The blade was 9 inches long and it looked like it was just several shark teeth stacked on top of each other, even so only the sides were sharp while the top and bottom of the dagger were flat and contained wave like carvings. It's hilt is around 5 inches long and is beautifully decorated in blue, green, and gold like fish scales and at the end of the hilt there was a very long chain that looped around the man's arm, crisscrossing it with at least 5 inches dangling.
'So this 'ere is our master? She don't look much.' the man had a deep gruff voice, it sounded like the restless waves constantly colliding against cliffs, rocks, and the shore.
'When we train her she'll be a killing machin.' Nami said stomping her foot on the floor.
'Ye can train her. I'm gonna take a nap.' the large man kicked the door open once again and passed threw, not bothering to acknowledge us.
'What's up with him?' I asked the woman who stood next to me. She shrugged, and let out a heavy sigh.
'It doesn't matter. The lazy ass just wants to sleep. Though he's not wrong. Right now you don't look much and even though you have a strong reiatsu you have no idea how to control it or use it.'
'...Then will you teach me? You're both right, I know nothing about what's going on. I just recently died and I have two weapons with me yet I don't know how to use them. I want to protect my sisters even here so will you teach me to get stronger?' I looked down at my hands. Though we just died it doesn't mean we can live a careless life in this world. I know something is going to happen and when it does I don't want to see my sisters fall once again. With determination I balled my fists and Nami smiled at me.
'Just know this kid, get ready to earn your sea legs.'
~ Sollexia's P.O.V ~
It's hot. I feel numb. It feels like that time. My eyes are closed but instead of darkness, I see red. Slowly opening my eyes, I try to make out my surroundings. I kneeled and I saw large flames beginning to die. Embers began to dance in the air like snowflakes would during winter, sparks decorated the floor and soot slowly fell. One everything began to make sense, snakes of various shapes and sizes began to slither to an alter like area just ahead of me. There was a throne and in front of it, the snakes began to merge.
'Ssssso, your the one who wieldsssss me... With work I'm sssure you'll be decent enough to ussssse me.' steam began to form, after a while it began to fade away. Finally the form a person... emerged. Waist down a snake tail was slowly being revealed as the steam finally began to subside. I was about to faint when it approached me with a sorry looking face.
'You went expecting to ssssee thisssss huh?' the snake woman looked sad and heartbroken that kinda made me sorry for acting the way I did... Almost though.
'Your right I wasn't expecting this but... Ummmm. Am I dreaming?'
'No, thisss isss real. I am your Zanpakuto... Kansssan-ki.' I noticed her slight hesitation, as if she wanted to say something but changed her mind and said something else.
'What do you mean by real? And what's a Zanpakuto? '
'You and I are insssside a reality you created in your mind while you're in deep meditation or assssleep. I am part of your ssssoul, I am a weapon who belongssss to ssssincccce you were born. You ssssummoned me when you died back in the other world.' after realizing what she said I remembered short visions of when I was dead. I held a fire like whip in my hands. Once remembering the weapon I had, I began to search for it and found it on the serpents waist.
'Hehehe, ssso I sssee you remember about thisss. If you can't figure it out, I can turn into it. I am thisss weapon but I jussst prefer to be in thisss form when in your mind. But mostly I'll be in my full ssserpent form.' for the first time since the conversation began I looked at the... Woman, in front of me. Her tail was long and her scales resembled flames. Beautiful reds, oranges, and yellows adorned her tail while her underside was mostly pale yellow with hints of white. What was really beautiful was that some of her top scales were purple and blended well with the colors. Her body was a beautiful tan that resembled my sister Luna's color, she had red like scales adorn the sides of her waist reaching her torso and coming foward to a for her C cup breasts. A gold belt adorned her waist where the scales began until her tail started to form. She had gold upper and lower arm cuffs, a gold and Ruby necklace, and her long black hair was held by a pure gold head piece that had rubies and diamonds dangling and adorning it. She had thick stands of hair that somewhat covered her breasts. Her face resembled that of an Egyptian goddess, and a serpent like design adorned her right shoulder.
'Is this really my soul?' it was all I could think of. Suddenly a new version of my weapon, (her weapon?), appeared in my hands. It was the same except this time, it had a hilt and where a blade should be, a chain whip cascades to the floor. The chain pools on the floor and at the end of the chain is a small spike ball. This time there aren't any flames adorning it.
'For you to wield me, I'm going to train you on how to properly ussse me. I will not be sssswung carelesssly.' with that she slithered down from her throne next to me. Flames arose once again and so did various sizes of targets, she readied the weapon and began to demonstrate how she should be held...
~ Terra's P.O.V ~
Dreams, they are weird things, one minute I dreamt of my sisters and I in a big house, eating a nice warm meal, by a fire with actual clothes on. Not these rags we were given when we entered this place. But now all I see are rocks, rocks of various sizes, materials, and forms, some floating in the sky, others were crystals, or metals. Not only that but there's a moving rock that's floating in front of me... Why the hell is it floating? As I attempted to walk away, the floating rock began to move and kept getting in my way. When I decided to turn the other way, it's there, in my face, once again...
'What a curious child.' A deep voice said, which also cane form the rock? Man I must really be sleepy. As I just stared at the thing in front of me, the rock began to break and turned into a rock like monster.
'My name is Zetsubō no Tani, and this is Tetsu no Shinzō-bu. We are your Zanpakuto.' the stone monster said pointing to himself and to his left arm? Now that I took a better look, his hand is different from his body. It's a grey material, like an ore of some sort, it then spiders up his arm till it reaches his shoulder, from there his body starts. Just before I could ask why he was pointing at his arm, the grey ore detached itself from Zetsubō's shoulder.
'Hello there, I'm Tetsu no Shinzō-bu but you can call me Tetsu.' the strange rock said with a very cute yet mischievous voice, as I gave it a very confused look, it transformed. Tetsuya had a very small figure, it reminded me of my own body, but I'm still short compared to Testu... Instead of legs, her body is sitting on top of a floating stone with various gems decorating it at random. Her body was slim and it was covered by a white loose dress that just drapes around her 'body' like a gown. Though she doesn't have actually hands and arms, she has two smooth rocks that resembled them. They were floating near her shoulder while an orb floated near where her head should be. She had a mouth and big blueish green crystal eyes. White gems that were cut in various lengths that resemble hair. She also had a veil that floated around her head and... hair
'How can you look like that when you were just an arm?'
'I can always change my form, so can this big guy.' Tetsu pointed to the 8 foot rock monster, if Tetsu wasn't floating she would be around 4'9 or so, her 'hair' gives her an extra inch or so.
'Could you tell me if I'm still asleep?'
'You are, but we called you here. We wanted to see who our master was.'
'Mmhmmmm, and your sooo puny. Hehehe. I wonder will she really be able to wield us?'
'Hey its not my fault he's a giant, and your just floating!'
'There's no need to be mad, you're just sooo cute.'
'Anyways. What do you mean by you're my Zanpakuto? What is a Zanpakuto anyways?'
'We are entities that represent part of your soul. We can turn into weapons, though some Zanpakuto come in shapes of sword. In your case we are Tanto's, but after chanting our names we can turn into gauntlets.' And just like that, my two gauntlets from before appeared on my hands yet they were different.
'Get ready little girl, we are gonna train you to use us.' My gauntlets came to my elbow, which was weirdly comfortable. My left hand had a large blade that starts at my elbow and begins to open and curve like a scythe. rhe blade from my elbow to the actual end point is around 28 inches that extends well paat my open hand. The blade was thin, but it looked very sharp, enough to possibly cut through bone. The gauntlets was silver and on the back of my hand was a white crystal and around it were smaller and different colored gems
'Before you can fight us, we'll teach you our chants' Zetsubō's gauntlet was copper like his body color but it's bigger than Testu's. He didn't have any gems in him or a blade and it somehow looked more like a shield, yet it didn't weigh as much as it looks. I swung my hand to test out my thoughts and exactly as I thought, it doesn't weigh at all.
'Okay I'm ready.' I balled my fists and looked at both of my Zanpakuto with joy and determination.
~ Amoura's P.O.V ~
I never want to open my eyes ever again, I feel like I'm on cloud nine, though it's quite chilly here... I wish I had a blanket. I open my eyes after a while, and all I see is white, golden yellow, orange, pink, and violet. I looked down and I saw a cloud, I looked around me and I see a house made of clouds... If this is a dream then I want a Pegasus.
'Good, your up.' a calm and gentle voice said behind me, I turned to see a very beautiful woman. Her skin was peach colored, her hair is long and its a dark shade of strawberry blonde. She had a nice body and her beasts were as big as Luna's. Out of the four of us, Luna has size D cups, next would be Terra with her just barely filling a C cup. After that it's a tie between Sollexia and I, we both have B cups but they all tell me that mine could still grow... Anyways, the woman in front of me had a white dress on that hugged her body like a second skin until it reached her waist, it then flowed down like a waterfall. She wore no shoes yet she had silver ankle cuffs and dilver chain bracelets and had two silver fans in her hands. That looked very familiar to the ones I used that one time, which I'm convinced was a dream.
'I am your Zanpakuto, my name is Shiroi Karasu, I am a healer more than I am a fighter.'
'Hello Shiroi Karasu I'm Amoura.'
'I know that, you are my Master.'
'What do you mean master?'
'You are the only one who will be able to wield me, and you're the only one I will teach how to wield the air and sky.'
'... I still don't think I understand.'
'It's okay sweetie, would you rather talk than train right now?'
'Yes please?'
'Okay, ask me anything you want.'
'Is there only one of you?'
'Yes, there is only me, most Zanpakuto don't have a partner but depending on their shikai form and their power, they can transfom into two different weapons or it could be the opposite. Two weapons, the sword and the sheath, can connect to create one weapon. (if that makes sense ) In your case, the two tantos can transform into two small fans or you can connect them to form a staff, like so.' Shiroi said putting the ends of the fans together, wind began to swirl around them and just as she said, a staff appeared. It was fairly long though not really, if I remember correctly it looks well past a foot so maybe around 20ish inches. It's beautiful, the rod has four wing like blades that circle around an orb. In a way it almost looks like a flower because the feathers look like petals.
'You can heal people?'
'I'm more like a protector. I don't like harming people unless provoked. I can put up barriers. I can summon a gale of wind to push away enemies. But I can also be deadly at times, I can summon a tornado or many tornadoes. I can also use poisonous gasses to suffocate people or take people's breathe away. I can also read the wind, I will teach you how to heal but I will also teach you how to kill.'
'And with this will... Will I be able to help my sisters?'
'You will be able to help and protect them. Now let me teach you my chant or how I like to say my song.'
~ In the Gotei 13 ~
"Captain Kuchiki, I want you and Captain Zaraki to go back to the world of the living to retrieve Captain Hitsugaya and the other shinigami... We need every man available to track down those four girls."
"Captain Zaraki is out in the Rukon districts.'
"Then you will go by yourself, those girls are important, we cannot afford to lose time. Though they don't know of it, they are nobles and an evil force is after them. Their deaths weren't by accident. Squad 2 is already on the move to find them, but in case things get out of control we need all shinigami present."
Byakuya nodded slightly before flash stepping to the Senkaimon.
"To think that he would begin moving so quickly." Head Captain looked out at the setting sun, sighing at the thought of that man showing his face again. To think that even in death he and his father would torment his mother and wife. Now that his daughters are dead, will he go after them just to torment them in this life as well?
"Head Captain, both members of squad 2 and the Onmitsukidō have begun their search in The North and East Rukon Districts, so far there havent been any updates on the girls you're looking for."
"I see... Contact Captain Kurotsuchi, I want to know if he has found anything interesting. Captain Suì-Fēng, thank you for the report, you are dismissed." Suì-Fēng flash stepped away while a messenger person flash stepped to the 12th division.
~Elsewhere. Unknown P.O.V
"Sir, when do we begin out attack?" a person asked two shadows who sat on a throne. The area was dark and it was only lit by candles.
"Worry not, the time comes once we've located the girls, remember not to engage them in case they've figured out how to use their crystals. If they do know then approach with caution and catch them when they don't expect it. If you have to use the hollows for a distraction then do it, beat them up just make sure they're still breathing." A deep voice boomed through the room.
"You bastard, the Gotei 13 will find them before you and will protect them. Once they catch you, your going to suffer an you'd wish for death to come." SLAP the sound of flesh against flesh was heard through the room, very quiet sobs could be heard if one listened very carefully. The woman fell to the floor, her hair pooling around and over her. Suddenly one of the figures stood up and pulled her by the hair.
"Shut up you worthless bitch. The only use you were to me was giving birth to those little bitches... I'd kill you right now but that would be a sweet relief for you huh? I'll give you a proper punishment later on." the man threw her again the ground. An older woman came to the fallen women and retreated towards the door.
"father, soon we'll find them, I know it." the older man just nodded before giving orders as to were to search next.
~Next day
"Are we ready to do this?"
"We're ready Luna."
"Then would you like to go first Terra?" the petite woman nodded to her sisters. She took her tantos out and breathed in deeply before releasing her reiatsu and exhaling.
"Be merciless Tetsu no Shinzō-bu, Crush and protect Zetsubō no Tani." Both of her tantos transformed into stones and once it began to crumble, gauntlets formed. The same ones she saw while she was training with her Zanpakuto. Her sisters smiled at her with satisfaction, Sollexia then said that she wanted to go next.
"Spark Flames of Vengeance Kasan-ki." the blade of katana was engulfed by fire, 6hen the fire began to move lower, a chain replaced the blade and began pooling on the floor.
"Amoura would you like to go? " the youngest of the bunch nodded a little hesitantly but her sisters reassured her to not to worry.
"Sing the Forgotten Song Shiroi Karasu." She placed both the ends of her tantos together and a staff appeared, just like back in her 'dream' four wings circled an orb and it resembled a flower.
"how beautiful" Terra said admiring her twin's weapon, Luna and Sollexia just nodded also admiring the weapon.
"it has another transformation. Song of Despair." she held the staff in the middle and clouds and wind circled it. When it disappeared two silver fans appeared. Amoura thought her sisters would be less excited due to her having an actual weapon to kill. She couldn't be more wrong. The three girls let a relieved sigh out.
" at least now we can fight without worrying too much about you."
"Sollexia is right, if you only had a weapon that heals how would you protect yourself if we ever got separated or out numbered."
"I can't let anything happen to my twin. Even if you're taller, I'm still your big sister."
"hehe, so Luna it's time for you to show us your Zanpakuto."
"Kay, here I go then. Drown those who touch your sea, Arekuruu Shio. Begin the waves of chaos Odayakana Nami." though Nami was responsive, Arekuruu wasn't. Nami did tell her that she would have to prove herself to him and when that happens she will teach Luna their full chant.
"What about the one on you're right hand?"
"Nami told me he would be impossible to work with right away. She says that he gains more power with blood. His tanto has a wave engraving so if I cut people down it will absorb their blood and he goes into an adrenaline rush which will allow me to call him. His shikai form also has a wave engraving but I'm not sure what happens there." Sollexia, Terra, and Amoura just nodded along trying to fully comprehend what their big sister was saying.
After finally understanding what their sister said they decided to meditate with their Zanpakuto, even the one who isn't in his shikai form, before testing out some moves in the real world.
