Ginga Hanashi Orion

Season one Episode twelve: The Origin of Bloodbringer


The screen brightened up with Silhouette from Naruto Shippuden playing as Orion and his friends were each shown one by one with Orion being last to indicate him being the main character. The word Ginga was sliced onto the screen with Hanashi being pushed underneath it. The word Orion was then shot underneath that as well with fire blazing around it right after. The song began with Orion looking over a beautiful part of the land as a female voice began to sing the main theme for the series known as Who I Am.

"Ready set go! My determination will rise and give me hope; (Andy walks up to Orion and sits next to him) Even though, there is so, much we do not know yet." Bella was jumping into a rain puddle while it was still raining, showing her bubbly natue. "Crossing that line. (Bella sees Sirius walking up to her) We all know there's no going back in time. (Sirius rubs Bella's head, making her smile) Even though, there is so, much we do not know yet."

Orion and Rigel were on a stage with Rigel farting his ABC's as he let out small green clouds for each one, making Orion laugh as the song continued. "Our passion, is burning, under the sun." Orion was shown to be crushing someone's skull, showing a dark expression on his face as he did so. "Yeah my skin is, glistening. (Orion lets out an evil grin, showing that he can be merciless when he wants to be) From the, sweat dripping from my (Orion punches the guard, possibly killing him as he does so) face!"

Ciara was watching as Orion slashed through an entire army of evil doers, staying out of sight as to not be seen by him. "As time will pass, I believe, (Ciara seems to be cautious when watching Orion's skills) there are many things that we may forget; (Orion continues to slash the army members into pieces as well as wiping them all out in no time) But I won't, lost the sign, of who I am."

Orion and his friends were shown to be braving some kind of snowstorm with Orion holding Andy's paw tightly so he doesn't fall behind. "It's not exactly that I don't care, but I won't let my memories be bare. And that's why, I must find, out who I am."

Orion was dodging Hydra's punches and kicks while in a blood red aura without moving as the song wrapped up. "So gracefully, we're fluttering, like dancing leaves. Just know I won't, ever abandon you!" Orion aimed a punch at Hydra as the wolf did the same, capping off the intro theme and having the title return with a dark aura along with Orion's sillhouette next to it.


Orion's sword was in some kind of glass container as Kotetsu's paw came onscreen and pointed at it with admiration. "Feast your eyes upon this!" Kotetsu dashed up to the glass container as he explained the beauty of the sword that lied within it. He seemed to be a bit younger though. "As you can clearly see, the effort that was put into sharpening this blade and making it as strong as can be is unmatchable. Filled with Gin's blood, it gives off the pureness he holds within him, and only those worthy of his strength can use it."

Orion was shown younger than he normally is, indicating that this is a chapter on his past, scoffing as he walked up to the sword. "That's bullcrap. Gin spent his life killing bears and taking Akakabuto down, only to end his life by teleporting an exploding Hougen or whatever it was to Heaven. Where'd he have the time to put his blood into a sword?"

"Let's just say Gin got around a lot." Orion rolled his eyes as Kotetsu continued looking at the sword, loving the sight of it alone. "If this is what it looks like then I'd love to see how it works in battle. It could cut just about anything open with little to no effort if it wanted to."

Sirius was drawing the sword in his book as he also wrote down some information on it. "Fascinating. This is something I have to look deeper into."

"Yeah, good luck with that." Orion snarked, and then he got a look at the sword and figured he could use it without much problem. "Ya know, the sword looks pretty cool. If you like Kotetsu, you can let me use it for a bit."

Kotetsu was concerned when he heard those words, not exactly knowing how to explain how dangerous the sword was. "I don't think that's possible. One wrong move and-" Orion punched the glass and took the sword out, making Kotetsu show a blunt expression. "Some arrogant twat could get their paws on it."

Orion held the sword up to Kotetsu's neck with a smirk on his face, giving off the impression that he knew what he was doing. "Do, you, yeild?"

Kotetsu scoffed and swiped the sword with a confident look on his face, knocking Orion back with the butt of it as Sirius taunted him. "Yes, he does. Only he does so on your behalf."

"And I'm supposed to be hurt by someone without the guts to throw a punch." Orion chuckled a bit as he stood up, giving his brother a smug grin. "I'd have more of my self esteem broken from your drawings."

Kotetsu put the sword back and Orion rubbed his paws together, knowing he'd have to use it more. "Well we'll need a new container for it but I don't think anyone would be stupid enough to break in and take this thing. It's power can only match those responsible enough to handle it." Orion started hatching a plan to get the sword and couldn't wait to execute it.


Orion and Andy were walking up to Kotetsu's place with Andy questioning what they were doing here so late at night. "What're we doing here so late again? (Orion starts picking the lock) We could just break in here in the morning and take the sword then."

"If we break in then Kotetsu will just kick our asses and we'll be back to square one." Orion pointed out, picking the lock and sneaking in with Andy. "Trust me. I know what I'm doing." Orion and Andy walked slowly as to not risk waking up Kotetsu, leading to them both arriving at the door. The two of them nodded and Orion opened the door, letting Andy in first and allowing him to see the sword. Andy was in awe when Orion closed the door and spoke with greatness about the sword. "Just because the journey's easy, doesn't mean the reward's cheap."

Andy walked up to the sword and saw Orion weilding it at any point in time. Luckily for him, Orion grabbed the sword, but to his concern. "Wait Orion. Maybe we should leave it here for now. I heard those without pureness could die upon using it for killing."

"I don't care about that." Orion walked up to the wall and sliced it open, kicking it down and making his getaway. "Besides. I don't need pureness to be awesome. I just need the right setup, and maybe telling someone to hold my soda."

Orion and Andy ran off with Andy wondering what Orion was going to do with the sword now that they had it. After all, there haven't been any attacks lately, and they couldn't risk letting anyone else see it. "So what do you plan on doing first?"

"I don't know. I just thought of getting the sword have any ideas?" Andy thought for a moment and came up with a decent idea that he thought Orion would find appealing.


Orion and Andy were in the forest with Orion liking Andy's bold decision, but at the same time, sensing his best friend's fear. It made him concerned since he knew Andy wasn't always up for this kind of action. "You sure you wanna go through with this Andy? This may not be the best place to do sword stuff for someone with your fear level."

"Nah, I'll be fine." Andy replied, confident that Orion would be able to protect the both of them from anything. "We just have to keep our guard up whenever someone comes along and tries to attack us is all. We'll be perfectly fine as long as we don't do anything too insane or take risks that're too big."

Orion nodded in understanding, hoping Andy wouldn't get hurt too badly out here. He also hoped they would be able to get away with this, especially considering how sharp Kotetsu made the sword out to be. Just then, Orion sensed something and looked to see an Ohu Soul. Andy saw it too and they nodded as they walked up to it, only for a giant bear to step before them. Andy was terrified when he saw this and couldn't move with Orion then speaking up. "Listen buddy. We need this. We won't harm you if you don't harm us."

The bear slashed at Orion, who blocked the slash and kicked the bear aside. Orion looked at Andy and saw his fear, handing him a gun. "I stole it from Daisuke's shop. (Andy takes the gun) I still got Brainsmasher. That right there is Painmaker."

"You named two guns you stole from a shop?"

"I thought it'd give them some character."

The bear charged back at Orion and Andy with Orion dashing at him and holding his sword proudly. He sliced right through the bear's waist and split it into two pieces, looking back at the bear and making this line. "Hey. You, attacked first. I defended." Orion walked back over to Andy, who gave him his gun back after picking up the Ohu Soul. "Guess you didn't need this thing after all." Orion looked to find blood and bear fur on the sword, getting the idea they should wash it off. "Damn. Maybe we should hit the blacksmith."

Andy chuckled a bit as he and Orion headed back home, feeling a blacksmith wouldn't be the most helpful. "I don't know how a blacksmith is gonna help us Orion. This sword took ages to craft and I doubt doing more crafting on it would be able to get anything off of it."

"Yeah, I guess." Orion thought for a moment and smirked as he looked at Andy. "Hey, make sure you don't tell this to your dad, okay? At least not until I've mastered using this thing. Getting an Ohu Soul does help, but it doesn't master one's abilities." Andy nodded as Orion got into loving the grip he had on the sword. "I can't wait for the day I use this in public. It's gonna be one hell of a show."

"As long as the army doesn't piss all over you for using it beforehand." Andy responded smugly, and Orion scoffed as he gave Andy a smug grin, leading to the two of them laughing about the scenario the two of them just got put into, hoping the Ohu Soul would cover for it.


Orion and Andy were sparring outside Cross's house as Kotetsu was telling Cross about something he found out from last night. "And he seriously thought I wouldn't notice. What an idiot." Kotetsu was laughing as he continued the story with Cross patiently listening as she watched Orion and Andy spar. "Anyway, I guess I wouldn't mind letting Orion borrow the sword again. Not while sucking ass at his stealth abilities of course."

Orion knocked Andy down with a swift kick and assisted him up with Cross shown to still be watching them. "I've seen Orion practice his swordsmanship a lot, so if he wanted to, he could possibly attain the sword." Cross thought about the sword's legend and felt that Orion fit into it. "And he didn't die from killing the bear, so the sword obviously trusts him."

Kotetsu nodded and watched as Orion threw Andy over him and picked him back up, listening as Orion gave Andy a playful taunt. "You call that a lunge? You'd have to TRY to let that hit you." Kotetsu chuckled a bit and decided he might as well see what Orion's made of with his sword skills. He thought maybe he could give him a sparring lesson on it sometime so he could test his abilities for himself, wanting to see what he's got.


A bunch of bears were having a ceremony about the bear Orion killed, revealing it to have been their leader. They put his coffin into the ground and buried him with the bears all speaking what they thought about him. It was heartbreaking to them and a list was shown with two sides, one of the ones they all killed, which is a hell of a lot, at least five pages worth. And the other side consisted of the ones who were killed by dogs, which was...pretty small actually. About twenty or thirty, but nothing you'd see outside of a species like this.

The bears were all devastated upon the news that their leader was dead and carved his name onto the side of bears that were killed by dogs. They still couldn't believe it'd happened and they needed revenge. Luckily for them though, they were able to catch the scent of the one who killed the bear, since they sniffed him right before his death for proof. The leader of the bear army turned to his allies and let out a roar, and they all roared with him, showing their willingness to avenge their leader.

The bears all glanced over in the direction of Akita Prefecture, ready for every inch of blood they were about to cause. They all set out to end Orion's life, willing to die themselves in the process, as long as it resulted in the death of the one who killed their leader. They were ready for the battle of their lives, even if it ended up being the last battle they would ever take place in. Whatever deaths they may face, whatever soldiers they may lose, it'll be worth it in the end, just as long as they kill the one who ended their leader's life.


The next day.


Orion was lying down in his bed as Weed entered his room, making Orion look over at him with a rather annoyed expression. "Ever hear of knocking?" Weed knocked on Orion's door, pleasing Orion a bit as he spoke in a nicer tone. "Better. Now what'd you come in here for?"

"Just wondering how things are going with the Ohu Army." Weed replied as he closed the door behind him. "From what they told me you're making incredible progress. I guess that marital arts school was a good idea after all."

Orion scoffed and sat up with a smirk on his face, quite enjoying his time with the Ohu Army. "That couldn't have been more obvious if we put a neon sign above my head saying 'I'm awesome.'" Weed chuckled a bit upon Orion's high level of arrogance as Orion continued his words. "I think it's safe to say I'll be joining the Ohu Army soon enough. Maybe I'll even have a day dedicated to me if I kill the future main villain of our lives, who knows? Anything can happen."

Weed chuckled a bit more and couldn't help replying to all of the boasting Orion just did. "Indeed." Weed suddenly got a call from Kotetsu and answered it to make sure everything as okay. "Yes Kotetsu?" Weed waited a bit and allowed Kotetsu to explain the situation, making Weed rather cautious. "I see. I'll be there as soon as I can."

Weed hung up, leaving Orion curious as to what Kotetsu just told him. "What was Kotetsu calling for? Did someone die?"

"No, about a dozen canines in the village died." Weed opened up the door and looked back at Orion. "There's a group of bears attacking the village and they have some strange power surrounding them. I'll be back soon." Weed exited Orion's room and Orion got up, running onto the balcony and jumping onto the roof. He ran off and jumped on the tree branches that lead to Kotetsu's place as he thought to himself about how awesome this battle was gonna be. He could see himself taking care of those bears right now.


Weed and the others were taking on the bears and stopping them from wiping out the residents there as fast as they could. Jerome kicked one of the bears aside and launched a Ki beam right towards his heart, only for the bear to stand up and for the hole to regenerate. Jerome was surprised when he saw this and was quite familiar with this type of creature. "I've heard of a type of bear that can only die to cretures with a specific aura." The bear got up and glared at Jerome with seething rage. "Are you by any change a hybrid bear?"

"Lucky guess. You've certainly read up on your fair share of creature books." Jerome shrugged as the hybrid bear dashed at him, blocking his punch and roundhouse kicking him right in the jaw. The hybrid bear adjusted his jaw back into place, since Jerome dislocated it, glaring at him with a sadistic grin. "Just keep in mind that the more you attack us, the more savage we become."

Jerome chuckled softly as he felt confident about his chances of holding his own against the hybrid bear. "I'm perfectly fine with that. It's better than having no effort from your opponent."

"Glad you see it the same way!" The hybrid bear charged at Jerome, who grabbed it and threw it behind him, just as Mel kicked another one into him and made them collide. Mel gave a thumbs up to Jerome, who gave one back, and then the two got back to fighting the hybrid bears.

Weed was facing off against the leader of the hybrid bear army, since he took over as leader after the old one died, blocking his attacks and sending him back with a punch to the heart. The bear fell to his back and got up as he glared at Weed, who walked up to him with a stern tone in his voice. "We don't wish to fight you, or any of your species. We just want to live in peace."

The hybrid bear wiped his lip, since Weed had struck it from earlier, and chuckled to himself. "You're kidding, right? We were never friends to begin with. You're just delaying the inevitable." Weed growled in anger as the hybrid bear stood up and continued speaking about his love for war. "The hybrid bears never believed in peace. We know what we're doing, and we do it as we wish. And you wanna know why? (Left eye glows) Because it's fucking fun!"

Weed was disgusted by the hybrid bear's words as the hybrid bear charged at him, covering the screen with his body, only for a sword slash to go right down the middle. The hybrid bear fell into two, leaving Weed shocked that Orion was actually able to kill a hybrid bear. Orion gave a bloodthirsty look as the bears all caught his scent, glaring at him as one of them spoke up. "You! You're the one with the scent of the dog that killed our leader! Prepare to suffer before us or you'll die alongside your comrades without a change of reformation!"

Orion looked over at the hybrid bears and found that they wouldn't be much of a challenge. After all, he took care of the leader of their army in a single slash, so he didn't see much harm in taking care of the rest on his own. Though, he heard of the same legends Jerome heard, so he knew he couldn't say no to this offer. "Why not? After all, I'm one of those beings that has this supposed aura, it looks like I'm the only one here who can kill any of you. I couldn't decline even if I wanted to."

The bears all charged at Orion, who got ready to take them all on as intense rock music played. "Let's rock!" Orion dashed at the hybrid bears and dodged the strikes of two of them, slicing their legs off and stabbing one straight in the heart. As Orion gave a bloodthirsty grin, he kicked the bear back and sliced the other one into three different pieces, making them all fall onto the floor. The remaining bears all charged at him at once with Orion kicking one's head off and smashing it on another's, killing both of them in one go.

Orion grabbed one bear and sliced his arms off, dodging the strikes of the rest as he sliced some of them through their waists. He looked back and saw their dead bodies and admired the bloodshed that came from them. Three dove down at Orion with the Akita jumping up and slicing all three of their necks, making them all fall to the ground in an instant. Only one of them was left, and he was astonished to find that Orion had such skill for being so young.

Orion landed perfectly and charged at the bear, who cowered in fear as Orion jumped up and landed on him. "No, please, don't! Just do whatever you want to my friends, just don't hurt me!"

Orion held the sword up to the hybrid bear's neck and gave him a bloodthirsty grin and glare, showing he wasn't about to let him live. "Those who don't believe in peace don't deserve to beg for mercy." Orion stabbed the hybrid bear right in the neck and then lifted his head off, kicking it aside with ease. A baby bear came along and saw the destruction, traumatized by what happened and charging at Orion, who jumped off the bear and kicked the baby bear aside. "Get lost. I don't have time to deal with worthless rejects."

The baby bear ran off, swearing vengeance at Orion, as Orion made in his own special taunt for the bear. "Yeah, you'd better run ya little bitch! (Weed walks up to Orion and stands next to him) The next time we meet, you'll join your friends in hell!"

Orion laughed at what just happened with Weed giving him a calm, yet at the same time strict look, not the happiest about what just went down. "I think we can call this charade of yours something more than thievery."

Orion flinched and looked up at his father, giving a confident grin as he spoke about what he just did. "Cmon, he's a hybrid bear. He won't die unless I go back to kill his ass." Orion looked over at the other bears and saw everyone's reactions to their limbs with Andy poking one to see if it's still alive. "Besides. I'll be ready for whenever that baby bear comes back. (Looks at Weed) I read this book Jerome gave me and it said something about them being natural survivors. Maybe he'll take it up from one of his ancestors."

Weed grabbed the sword from Orion, who was surprised when his father suddenly commented on it. "And the sword?" Orion chuckled and scratched the back of his head, feeling he was about to get busted for the thing with the sword.


Orion and Andy were at the martial arts school the next day with Orion talking about what his dad did after the hybrid bear attack thing from the day before. "So then I was like, 'Buuuut, I saved Akita Prefecture.', and then he kept on talking about how I stole the sword and how I shouldn't kill, blah blah blah, I just tuned him out with my music halfway through. His anti-killing methods can get really annoying."

Andy snickered at the thought of how annoyed Weed might've been at the hands of Orion's defiance with Andy then getting a thought in mind. "Hold on. Why would you wanna tune your dad out like that? I thought getting closer with him before it became too late for you both was one of your priorities."

"Yeah, it is, but that doesn't mean I have to listen to his rants on why some people die before they're ready." Orion explained, and then he went into further detail on how annoying it is. "And in the end, you're not really saving anyone by stopping a killer, you're just delaying the inevitable. I get it. Lots of beings deserve a full life, and I'm willing to help them with it. But when someone deserves it, I'll end their life when it's still incomplete."

"Yeah, Weed's presentations can be pretty boring at times." Andy admitted, though he had to admit, he didn't think completely like Orion. "But it's interesting to think about. Rather than death, we can try befriending our former enemies or making them work for us through showing them peace and love. It's got a lot of depth to it."

Orion scoffed, feeling that there was little chance of any villain facing reformation. "I think there's a way bigger chance of them stabbing us in the back. Not everyone is like Zuko from Avatar." Orion walked onward with Andy stopping and wondering if Orion was still affected by that recent event.


Orion and Andy were in class with Orion trying really hard not to fall asleep during the lesson. He was much more fond of the lessons where you actually got to do something in a fight rather than hear about it, and found the written lessons, or the explanations, to be very boring. That said, he always tried to stay awake during the ones he thought were boring, since he knew they were important, as much as he didn't want to listen to them. That said, he then heard the voice of a younger Bon coming from behind him. "Hey Bloodlust."

Orion clenched his fist and tried to hold in his anger as he looked back at Bon, who was curious about the most recent events. "I heard you were the one who wiped out all of those hybrid bears yesterday. You must have a lot of power if you're able to take out an entire army by yourself."

Orion scoffed and turned around, feeling rather confident after what he achieved today. "Yeah, you could say that." Orion continued to get bored during the lesson as Bon then grabbed a slingshot out of his bag, aiming it at Orion and hitting him right on the head. "Ow!" Bon started laughing with Orion looking back at him with rage seething through his veins. "You'd better hope that was a gumball bitch!"

Orion lunged at Bon and started punching him in the face making everyone else in the room cheer for the fight to continue. Andy was watching up close, since he sat right next to Orion, smiling as he knew that Orion was going to be someone worth hanging out with for many reasons.


Orion and Andy were shown lying down on Cross's roof in the present day, looking back on the event they just looked back on. "And after a few more punches to the face and a week's worth of detention, I snuck out again and got (Holds Bloodbringer up high) this bad boy right here, which is now my main line of offence. Say hello to Bloodbringer, the ultimate blood spreading sword." Orion was quite proud of the day he got Bloodbringer, looking back on it as a core memory of his own. "And when the time comes Andy, I'll find out what that Bloodlust thing is all about."

Andy nodded, glad that Orion was working hard and ready to get to the bottom of the Bloodlust mystery. "You still have that book you got from the ship, right?" Orion nodded with a smile on his face, indicating that he most likely had some more knowledge on the Bloodlust by now. "That's good. The more knowledge we have, the closer we'll get to finding out more about this Bloodlust thing."

Cross went out onto the porch and called out to Orion and Andy to let them know what time it was. "Guys, pizza!"

Orion and Andy got up in an instant with Orion putting Bloodbringer away as he spoke to Andy. "Better move fast Andy! I'm gonna eat it the whole thing before you even get there!" Orion jumped off the roof and ran inside with Andy doing the same as Cross saw them run in and smiled. She then walked in and closed the door with Orion and Andy heard eating the pizza from outside. "Well I didn't eat it all but at least it's delicious, as expected." Orion and Andy continued eating as the screen faded to black, ending the episode off.


Bleach ending 10 Sakura Biyori played during the credits with Orion shown sitting on a ledge while looking over the land as a female voice prepared to sing The Evil In Me. "Sometimes I wonder, why things are like this, why my blood is tainted black, with no bliss. Has this fact occured, to anyone else, or is it all just me sulking, with little hope."

Orion looked up at the moon as Andy walked over to him and the two of them started talking as the leaders of Ohu were above them. "Very few canines understand me. Some others see me as as sadistic twerp. And although I won't lie, I truly love martial arts, I want them to see, that there's, more to me."

Orion and Andy looked at the stars with their looks of hope and compassion being shown. "My flaws aren't to ignore, but they aren't all I am. There is much, more to me, then this scar here. I blame no one for, being fearful, but I wish they could see. Once they see my, caring side they'll, get past the evil in me."
