In the Noble Familes

Mad Eater charged towards Luke and ready to eat him for sure and Senna screamed Luke's name as she rushed to get to Luke. Suddenly Mad Eater was struck down and he slid on the ground and was his back was wounded as he screamed in pain. Luke and Senna were shocked and wondered what had happened. Mad Eater got angry and wondered what had just happened.

"You're still the same," A male voice said.

"You terrorized us and now you're doing it to them," A female voice said.

Luke, Senna, and Mad Eater looked and saw that it was two Shinigami, one male and one female and Mad Eater was surprised as he recognized them and then he started to laugh in joy.

"It's you two," Mad Eater said in glee, "it's been decades since I last saw you. You two have grown but I know it's you."

"We're stopping you here and now," The male Shinigami said.

Luke and Senna were surprised and amazed of the appearance of the two Shinigami that came to help them.

"This is the end for you Mad Eater," The female Shinigami said and she looked over to Luke and Senna, "don't worry you two. We're here now."

"We won't let this Hollow hurt you," The male Shinigami assured.

Luke and Senna were surprised and amazed of the appearance of the two Shinigami that came to help them.

"You two run, now!" The male Shinigami said.

"Uh, o-okay," Senna said and then she rushed over and helped Luke up, "I got you Luke.

"Thank you Senna," Luke replied.

Senna and Luke got away and Mad Eater just looked on and then back to the two Shinigami as they drew their Zanpakutos and charged towards Mad Eater. As they got close, Mad Eater quickly formed his right hand to a fist and swung at the two Shinigami. The male Shinigami blocked the fist with his blade and the female Shinigami stabbed Mad Eater's right arm. Mad Eater screamed in pain and saw that his arm was bleeding from the stab wound. Luke and Senna got some distance and they looked on. Mad Eater formed another fist from his left hand and the female Shinigami stabbed the Hollow's left fist and slashed upward. Mad Eater was shocked and screamed in pain again as he staggered back.

"Damn it," Mad Eater said, "damn it, this is not suppose to happen."

"Fujimaru," The female Shinigami said.

"Got it," The male Shinigami named Fujimaru responded.

Fujimaru rushed towards Mad Eater and Mad Eater responded by lunging himself to Fujimaru but Fujimaru used Shunpo at the last second and that caught Mad Eater of guard. The Hollow chuckled and swung with its right arm to where Fujimaru had just appeared and Fujimaru appeared behind the Hollow in the air only to quickly used Shunpo again this time, surprising Mad Eater. Fujimaru appeared at the left side of Mad Eater. The Hollow caught sight of him and used its speed to strike to Fujimaru but Fujimaru used Shunpo again. The Hollow was getting frustrated and roared. Mad Eater was then slashed in the legs by the female Shinigami.

"Damn, I should have kept my focus on you as well," Mad Eater said.

Fujimaru stood next to the female Shinigami.

"So how about it Matsuri?" Fujimaru asked.

"Sure," The female Shinigami named Matsuri said.

Mad Eater jumped up in the air and surprised Fujimaru and Matsuri.

"Did you really think that I was going to let you get me like this?" Mad Eater asked in glee, "my injuries are nothing although…" Mad Eater looked and spotted Luke and Senna, "I suppose I should just eat them while I have the chance."

Mad Eater descended after Luke and Senna much to the pair's horror. Fujimaru and Matsuri went after Mad Eater and then Mad Eater was struck again and brought down on the ground. The four people and the Hollow were surprised.

"Now what?" Mad Eater said as he got up.

Mad Eater looked and saw another Shinigami. It was a male Shinigami that had dark red hair that parted down the middle with one stray bang on the left side of his face. He wore a Shihakusho with a captain haori over it.

"Captain Suzunami," Fujimaru said.

"Captain, we didn't expect you to be here," Matsuri said.

"Are you two alright?" The Shinigami Captain asked.

"We're fine sir," Fujimaru said.

"Good," The Shinigami Captain then turned to Luke and Senna, "are you two okay?"

"Y-Yes, we're fine," Luke said.

"Thank you," Senna said.

The Shinigami Captain gave them a warm smile.

"Seigen Suzunami," Mad Eater said, "Why must you insist on getting in my way?"

The Shinigami Captain named Seigen Suzunami turned and glared at Mad Eater and drew his Zanpakuto.

"I'm putting to stop to this right now," Seigen said, "Strike Down, Shiden!"

Seigen's Zanpakuto changed formed and each side if the blade was jagged and resembled a lightning bolt with two sharp points at the end of the blade. Seigen slammed his Shiden on the ground and with that, purple electrical current flowed in between the points to form a ball and then Seigen released a wide ranged purple lightning shock. Mad Eater was surprised and then next thing that happened that electrical currents occurred and lightning shot up from the ground. Mad Eater was gasped as he was wide eyed because he got hit by the attack. Mad Eater got annoyed and decided that he was going to make Seigen pay for what he had just done.

"I'll kill you!" Mad Eater declared angrily.

"No you won't," Seigen said calmly.

Mad Eater was suddenly stabbed in the head and was shocked to see that it was Fujimaru that had stabbed him. Fujimaru used Shunpo and then Mad Eater saw Matsuri charging towards him and slashed vertically across his neck. Mad Eater was shocked and couldn't believe what had just happened.

"Flash, Ryujomaru!" Fujimaru said.

Fujimaru's Zanpakuto changed form to a blue gauntlet that had rose up to his elbow and had gold markings.

"Swath, Kotomaru!" Matsuri said.

Matsuri's Zanpakuto changed form to a double edged bladed Guandao that also contained a small axe-like blade on the top just above the hilt. The two of them charged and struck Mad Eater with their released Zanpakutos and Mad Eater was brought down on the ground. Matsuri and Fujimaru used Shunpo and did an X-crossed attack on Mad Eater that also hit his mask. Mad Eater was shocked and screamed in agony.

"No, I shouldn't lose!" Mad Eater screamed, "I'm not supposed to die!"

"It's over for you," Fujimaru said.

"No more will you darken this place again," Matsuri said.

Mad Eater fell on the ground and disintegrated. It was over and Mad Eater was no more. Seigen sighed with relief and smiled at the two.

"Fujimaru, Matsuri, you two did well," Seigen said.

Fujimaru and Matsuri turned to their captain and smiled.

"Thank you Captain," Fujimaru said.

"Yes, although it was really you who did it," Matsuri said.

"No, I just gave you two the opening and you followed through," Seigen assured and then he turned to Luke and Senna, "Are you two okay?"

"Yeah, we're fine," Luke said with a nod, "thank you."

"Yes thank you so much," Senna said, "you really saved us."

"You were amazing," Luke said, "so this how it is being a Shinigami."

"Yeah," Seigen said with a grin, "thank goodness we made it in time."

"Oh yes," A man's voice said, "thank goodness. You seem to be unharmed Senna."

Senna flinched and frowned as she recognized the voice. Senna along with Luke looked over and saw Ganryu and his entourage.

"Lord Ganryu," Senna said.

"Huh, hey Senna, who's that?" Luke asked.

Senna sighed, "Well…"

"Ganryu Ryodoji," Seigen said, "I'm surprised to see you here."

"I came for Senna," Ganryu said with his smile, "I heard disturbing report that a Hollow was targeting Senna here and I came to help. But it looks like you and your two subordinate already took care of it," Ganryu gave a grateful gesture, "you have my thanks Captain Suzunami."

"Wait Senna, do you know this guy?" Luke asked.

"Yeah, kind of," Senna replied.

"Anyway now with that problem solved," Ganryu said and then he turned to Senna, "Senna, I would like to speak with you."

Senna just looked at Ganryu and then she sighed.

"Fine," Senna said and she turned to Luke, "Luke, I'll be right back."

"Senna?" Luke spoke.

"I'll be back," Senna assured Luke.

Senna left to speak to Ganryu privately. Luke looked on and then a hand on placed on Luke's shoulder. Luke looked and saw that it was Seigen.

"You're name's Luke, right?" Seigen spoke.

"Uh yeah," Luke replied.

"Luke, there's something I want to discuss with you about," Seigen said.

"Huh, what is it?" Luke asked.

Seigen told Luke what it was and Luke was surprised.

First District of West Rukongai, Junrinan

Guy was walking by and saw a house. Guy stopped and looked at the house and someone came out of the house. It was a girl with black hair and brown eyes wearing a light teal robe.

"Hi there Momo," Guy greeted with a smile.

The girl named Momo looked and saw Guy and waved happily at him.

"Hi Guy," Momo greeted back with a smile.

Guy walked over and approached Momo.

"How have you been?" Guy asked.

"Oh just fine," Momo replied.

"Oh it's you," A boy said.

Guy looked over and smiled when he saw a boy with turquoise eyes and silver hair.

"Toshiro, hi there," Guy said.

"Hi," The boy named Toshiro said deadpanned.

"Come on Little Shiro," Momo said.

"What?" Toshiro asked puzzled.

Momo sighed and shook her head and Guy just simply chuckled.

Third District of West Rukongai, Hokutan

"You know it's the right thing to do," Ganryu said with a grin.

Senna looked away from Ganryu with a frown.

"It will keep happening," Ganryu continued, "that Hollow called Mad Eater won't be last if you decide to remain here. At least with my proposal, you won't have to worry about random Hollow attacks simply because of what you really are…"

"I get it," Senna said upset, "I get what you're saying."

"Well then…?" Ganryu asked.

Senna looked over to Luke.

"Hmph, don't worry about your friend," Ganryu said, "It seems that Seigen Suzunami has plans for him as well…probably the same with us."

Senna was surprised and looked at Ganryu.

"But how would…?" Senna asked.

"He has a special power," Ganryu said, "special powers that Hollows would go after."

Senna looked back at Luke and was worried. Meanwhile Luke was surprised as to what he was told.

"Wait, you want to adopt me as your son?" Luke asked surprised.

"Yes, I want to take you in as my son," Seigen said, "therefore you becoming a sibling to Fujimaru and Matsuri."

The twins were surprised at Seigen and then looked at Luke.

"I see," Luke said and then he looked at the twins, "so you two are his adopted children."

"Yes we are," Fujimaru said.

"We were taking in by our father here forty years ago," Matsuri said.

"I see," Luke said and then turned to Seigen, "but I don't understand. Why do you want to adopt me? You don't even know me."

"True that I don't know personally," Seigen said, "but I've known about you for some time."

"About me?" Luke replied, "What do you mean?"

"You came from the world called Auldrant," Seigen said.

Luke was surprised at what Seigen said.

"You know about Auldrant?" Luke said surprised.

"A friend of mine told me," Seigen said, "she hails from Auldrant as well and she told me a lot about you from someone who is also from Auldrant."

"What?" Luke said surprised, "But who?"

"I can say that person who told her is the same person who brought you here," Seigen said.

Luke was surprised as he recalled what had happened after he was killed by Asch.

Flashback: Five Years Ago

"Such a sad fate for you," A voice spoke.

"Who's there?" Luke asked looking around.

"Over here," The voice said.

"Huh?" Luke said.

Luke looked over and saw someone who was a young man with blonde short hair, green eyes and wore a black gi and hakama and held a sword in his right hand.

"W-Who are you?" Luke asked.

"I'm a Shinigami," The blonde haired man said.

"A Shinigami?" Luke asked.

"Yes, you still have some bit of Seventh Fonons that keeping you whole for now but you'll completely disappear soon unless I take you to the Soul Society," The Shinigami said.

"The Soul Society?" Luke asked, "What's that?"

"A place where souls reside, the afterlife of sorts," The Shinigami said, "so with that…"

The Shinigami went to Luke and stamped Luke's forehead with his pommel and a mark was placed on Luke's head.

Flashback End

"I see," Luke said.

"The thing is Luke that you have a special power," Seigen said, "a power that Hollows will come after you for. If you were to come with us, you'll be live in the Seireitei and you won't have to worry about Hollow coming after you. At least, you'll be protected and I've heard about what had happened to you."

Luke flinched and then looked away with sadness.

"If you really know what happened to me then there's no point," Luke said, "you know that I was an awful person."

"Um well…" Seigen said and then cleared his throat, "I am aware about what had happened with the town called Akzeriuth and well…"

Luke clenched his teeth and felt sharp pain of guilt.

"Then you know what I did," Luke said, "I take it that whoever told saw me and how I was back in Auldrant," Luke looked at Seigen with a glare, "or maybe you want to use me like a certain man did."

"You mean Van Grants?" Seigen replied and shook his head, "No of course not. Luke, I don't want your power to use, I don't want to use you at all. You're not a tool to be used," Seigen looked over to Senna and then back to Luke, "that girl…she's been with you and stood by you."

"Yeah," Luke said happily, "she's my friend."

"Well here's the thing," Seigen said, "that man Ganryu plans to adopt Senna into his family and Senna will comply due to the circumstances."

"Wait, seriously?" Luke asked shocked.

"Luke," Senna said.

Luke looked and saw Senna who approached him.

"Senna?" Luke asked.

"Luke, I need to talk to you," Senna said, "privately."

"Oh, okay," Luke said and then turned to Seigen, "excuse us."

"Of course," Seigen said with a nod.

Luke and Senna went to go where they could talk privately. Ganryu smiled with confidence and Seigen glanced at Ganryu and narrowed his eyes.

"Fujimaru, Matsuri," Seigen spoke in a low tone.

"Yes?" Matsuri replied.

"What is it?" Fujimaru replied as well.

Senna and Luke were away from the others.

"Adopted?" Luke asked.

"Yes," Senna said, "that man Ganryu wants to adopt me and take me in the Ryodoji Family."

"I see…" Luke said.

Senna had a sad expression and looked away to the side.

"Luke, I…" Senna said.

"You're going to accept, aren't you?" Luke said.

Senna flinched and looked at Luke and then she looked down and nodded.

"I am," Senna said.

"You don't seem happy about it," Luke said with concern.

"Well to be honest, I'm not," Senna said, "I'm not happy that I will have to leave you. I tried to convince him let him take you with me but he refuse and won't give in otherwise. I don't want to leave you Luke but unfortunately..."

"Oh," Luke replied as he was touched by Senna's words and then he smiled, "well then you won't really have to."

"What do you mean?" Senna asked.

"The truth is that Captain Suzunami wants to adopt me into his family," Luke said.

Senna was surprised, "Wait, seriously?"

"Yeah, it seems that he knows about me," Luke said.

"Knows about you?" Senna asked.

"Yeah, about how I'm from Auldrant," Luke clarified, "it seems that there are other people who are from Auldrant as well who are serving in the Gotei 13, one of them being the one who brought me here."

Senna was surprised again and was amazed.

Hueco Mundo

There was a deafening roar that went on. There was a shadowy Hollow that stood. There wasn't much to see of the Hollow and the Hollow had long red hair. The Hollow opened its eyes and they were piercing green.

"This all his fault," The Hollow said with bitterness, "even when I killed him, he still manages to ruin things for me."

The Hollow yelled again and the Hollow yelled in anguish as his long red hair swung to the side. The Hollow released a strong Reiatsu and released a power that was bright.

"What am I suppose to do with this anger and resentment I feel?" The Hollow asked in despair.

Somewhere in Hell

A man was standing and he looked and saw the chains that bind him it was Mohs.

"Why?" Mohs asked upset, "Why am I in this place?" Mohs shook his head, "I did nothing wrong. I faithfully upheld the Score. I was trying to save the world! It wasn't my fault! I shouldn't be here!"

Mohs started to run and tried to make his escape from Hell but he did not get far as he was brutally stopped by a Kushanada and Mohs screamed in agony.

Seireitei, Soul Society

At the entrance of the Ryodoji Manor, Ganryu smiled and he looked at Senna who had a neutral expression.

"Welcome to our glorious family Senna," Ganryu said, "from now on, you are Senna Ryodoji."

Senna just looked on.

"Just remember that I get to go see Luke whenever I want," Senna said.

"Hmph, I would have advised against it," Ganryu said, "but seeing that your friend is now also part of a noble family."

Meanwhile Luke was with Seigen, Fujimaru, and Matsuri and they were at the entrance of the Suzunami Manor.

"Welcome to your new home Luke," Seigen said happily.

"Heh, welcome to the family," Fujimaru said with a grin, "Little Brother Luke."

Luke chuckled nervously and Matsuri wrapped her arms around Luke and that caused Luke to be surprised and blush.

"Oh, who is this?" A kind woman's voice asked.

Luke was surprised to see a woman that had long bright red hair that parted down the side with only the right side of her bangs on her forehead and she had dark green eyes. She wore a hair clip in the shape of a flower on her right side which rested on her shoulder and wore a light pink kimono with a red sash around her waist.

"Hi Konoka, we're back," Seigen greeted.

"We're back Aunt Konoka," Fujimaru said.

The woman named Konoka smiled and was happy.

"Welcome back," Konoka said, "so who is this?"

"Konoka, my dear sister," Seigen said with a smile, "we have a new family member."

"Uh, h-hi," Luke said, "I'm Luke, it's nice to meet you."

"He's our new brother," Matsuri said happily.

"So there you have it," Seigen said, "from now, he's Luke Suzunami."

"I see," Konoka said, "well I can't to hear all about it," Konoka got close to Luke and smiled kindly, "welcome Luke."

Luke felt warm inside, "Thank you," Luke then thought about Senna, "Senna."

Meanwhile Senna thought about Luke.

"Luke," Senna said in her head.

That's it for this chapter. Next chapter: Luke and Senna get used living as nobles in the Soul Society and Luke gets a surprise reunion.
