It is said that the zanpakuto is the reflection of a shinigami's soul, so why did Ichigo only meet one part of his reflection, in this alternate universe Ichigo meets his full reflection…

Bold= zanpakuto talking

Same cannon events up until Ichigo entering his inner world…

"So you finally have come my king"

Ichigo turns his head to the voice what he sees shocks him. In front of him is a man with a black devil like horn sticking out on one side of his face (hollowfied tensa zangetsu). Ichigo didn't seem bothered by it, but he was.

"Who are you?! And why did you call me king!?"

The being just chuckled and said "My king, I am your reflection of your soul, your powers. I called you king cause a true kings rules to protect!" the being tilted his head with a friendly smile.

Ichigo nods "so your my shinigami powers?"

"Yes and No, King. I said I am your powers, all of them. But this isn't time to tell you what you are, I shall tell you when you come back here. You want your powers…" Ichigo nods. "Then you must find my blade in this world before it collapses"

Ichigo goes through the same steps to bring out the soul ribbons. The ribbons appear all around him. All of them purely white except one. This one is larger than the others wide enough to equal 8 other ribbons. It appears to be white as well, but it has red, then it has black all of the colors in equal amount.

"This must be it" Ichigo pulls on it.

"Good my King, you found it. Remember to always use your knowledge alongside your instinct, and I will be satisfied with you being my wielder. Now you should be able to hear my name, scream it for it is..."

"TENSA ZANGETSU"

"Boss I need to go into suppression mode," Tessi says, but before he could even do that Ichigo reiatsu spiked to unbelievable levels.

"Boss I can't contain him"

Ichigo bursts upwards(same way in the anime) and lands on the ground causing a huge cloud of dust.

"Hey Ginger, You still you!" Jinta screams to Ichigo as the cloud of dust dissipates, revealing Ichigo with a horn growing out of the left side of his head, this horn was white and porcelain or bone in nature. The horn seems to radiate power. Moving from his new appendage going to his left eye is a red streak going down to his chest. As Ichigo opens his eyes the right eye is still the chocolate brown they know, but his left is a black pupil, Yellow iris, and black sclera. (search up Ichigo new hollow form)

Ichigo's shinigami clothes weren't the only thing that wasn't normal. (I am not very good with clothing descriptions, his clothes look like his new Bankai form after Bount arc)

Ichigo raises his hand to his new appendage and runs his hands along it.

'This feels oddly natural as if it has always been their'

'That is because of what part of your soul is.'

'I see'

"My My, you are full of surprises Kurosaki-san," Urahara says behind his fan. 'He has hollow Reiryoku, as well as shinigami… oh what's this... he has Quincy as well… full of surprises. His zanpakuto is still sealed right... Yes, it is, he hasn't said the release phrase yet… but still, his Reiryoku is that of a captain when they are in shikia.'

'My king, I recommend coming to me to learn how to control your reiatsu.'

'Enough with this my king shit, call me Ichigo… now, why do I need to control it?'

'I will only stop calling you king when I don't see you worthy to wield me anymore, and you need to learn control so you don't destroy your friends' souls when you release me into Shikai.'

'That can happen… shit. I wanted the power to protect not hurt my friends'

'And you shall have that power but you must learn control so you don't do so… But my king you must know something about me. What you want to protect is not what I wish to protect…'

'And what do you want to protect''

'You are my king, but there's another thing you need to know. I HATE IT WHEN IT RAINS!' tensa zangetsu said that with so much hate that it sounded demonic scaring Ichigo.

'... what do you mean you hate the rain?'

'When it rains in your world, it is when you are in despair or are experience great sorrow. So I will freely give you the skills you need to have for you not to be in that pain, so it will not rain. It is the reason why I will teach you how to control your power, if you destroy your friends' souls just by being in their presence then there will be a monsoon in your world. The other reason is what greater teacher to use your power than your own powers. But do not get me wrong I will not hold your hand that is not my purpose. You still have to work for the power I offer.'

'If I don't work for the power, it won't ever be truly mine.'

'Exactly my king, I am glad you agree'

"Now Kurosaki-san for the third test you must achieve your Shikai and knock off my hat."

"Sorry but I need to learn control according to my zanpakuto warnings. And to do so he says to come to him."

"Oh, that's rare a zanpakuto wanting to teach their wielder to wield them."

"It not really that he is teaching for other reason."

"Still it is not every day that a zanpakuto does that, I mean most shiginima don't have a good relationship with their zanpakuto for that to even happen."

'Is that true!'

'Yes my King, but if you keep me close and trust me, I promise you will have the power to do what you wish to.'

'Okay tensa zangetsu, I will put my full trust in you, but please do not make me regret me putting my trust in you.'

'Of course my King, as long as you don't lose yourself to despair, you will have me as your partner.'

"Urahara how do I get back to my inner world?" Ichigo asked but then remembered a promise to do harm to the man. He vanished surprising everyone around.

BOOM

Urahara was sent skidding across the training ground.

'Thank you Ichigo for doing that, what he had you do was far too risky for me to be comfortable.' ichigo snigger a laugh.

'I did that more for myself than you tensa.'

'I know king' so he doesn't mind that I only called him tensa.

'That is because it is still part of my name… even I realize how long my name is.'

Note to self tensa is a mind reader. He heard a laugh coming from his zanpakuto spirit.

'Not really my king, I can hear your thoughts even if they're not directed at me.'

Ichigo started to think he will never get his privacy but remembered he needed to trust his zanpakuto fully even his thoughts. When he finished line of thought he felt a feeling of approval and happiness originating from his zanpakuto.

"Ita Ita, was that really necessary to hit me when asking a question, I knew you were a bit of a delinquent but that is going a bit far don't you think Kurosaki-san?"

"Cut the shit, I promised to kill you when I got out I only hit you so be glad!"

"Of course Kurosaki-san. To enter your inner world you must do the technique called jinzen. To do it you must focus on your zanpakuto while ignoring everything else around you."

"You mean I have to meditate while only focusing on my zanpakuto?"

"Correctamundo Kurosaki-san."

Ichigo sat down and enter a meditative state with his broken zanpakuto. It took him 10 min to fully focus as a person mind can not normally focus on one thing for long before drifting on to something else.

"Congratulations on coming back into your inner world on your first session. I half expected to see you rage at how hard it would be to enter. Then again your will to protect others is strong."

"Thanks, tensa, now you said you tell me what I was when I came back here."

"Correct I did say that, but before I tell you, you must not fear me or fear your powers. As they will respond to that fear and do something that you don't want to happen"

"I…. I understand…" Tensa zangetsu looks deeply at him looking for Ichigo truly understands. When he sees it he continues.

"Ichigo you're are a hybrid, you are a Quincy, a shinigami, and a… hollow"

"I am a hollow because of how I gained my powers aren't I."

"Yes, but not in the way you think, King your a natural living born hollow, you were born that way all your powers were born this way. It is the reason for the way I look I reflect you cause of your powers, therefore I have powers all Quincy, shinigamis, and hollows… my powers are able to destroy, purify and absorb souls, but if I absorbed souls they are immediately purified and put back into the cycle of rebirth with the only thing remaining is their power, unless you choose for them to stay in you becoming another spirit within until you enter the cycle yourself."

Ichigo stands there absorbing this information. Then a slight realization hits him causing his skyscraper city to expand into space. Tensa zangetsu stares at this change in the world he lives in with wonderment knowing what this means. He looks into what Ichigo thought that would cause this and smiles.

"Yes, Ichigo if that hollow is still alive there's a chance to bring your family, together." after stating this the building once again skyrocket upwards.

"Now let us begin your training." Ichigo looks at his zanpakuto with determination… and what surprised tensa zangetsu the most was there wasn't even an ounce of fear towards him just… unadulterated respect and … love.
