A/N :

.

Evolution Arc – Part II

1995 – The year Masaki Kurosaki died

Two weeks later, Heuco Mundo / Las Norches

.

An ordinary day in hollows' world, as always the moon was in the sky and illuminating the beings on the white sand with pure white light. That was the main factor which makes this place creepy.

(A/N Aizen's fake sky is not there yet.)

There was no sound other than the hollows trying to eat each other for more power, they were strange creatures. Their instincts were forcing them to do this, actually that was a satisfying activity for them. Even in this world there was civilization, that wasn't made by hollows though.

Fortress of Arrancar, Las Norches.

In the large room, there were arrancars and the special ones which known as Espada. Formed by various types of hollows, first generation Espada…

On the other side of the room, Aizen was sitting on his throne with his shinigami suit.

(A/N His suit in Soul Society, glasses etc.)

His fellow shinigami were nowhere to be seen, probably they were in Soul Society to cover his disappearance. After all, Aizen was still a captain of Gotei 13.

"You must've seen her face when I cracked her skull open HAHAHA!" Nnoitra Gilga roared/laughed, earning various glares from Arrancar but someone's stare was stronger than the other ones. Grimmjow didn't believe him, Nelliel was way stronger than that clown. He sent a mocking look to him.

"Oh really… Are you sure she wasn't just pranking you…" He said with his usual energetic voice. Nnoitra's smirk fell then he looked at the blue haired espada.

"What the hell was that Grimmjow? I can show it on you if you want that badly!" He snapped. Grimmjow was the last person who let something like that slide.

"Huh, I would like to see you try!" He growled and stood up. Octava Espada did the same with a frown on his face.

"Don't make fun with me…" He muttered and walked towards him, gripping his extra big zanpakuto. Grimmjow gladly accepted his duel.

When Grimmjow touched his zanpakuto's hilt, both of them felt an overwhelming reiatsu. It was enough to make the air sizzle. They froze in place and turned their faces to the source, they frowned at Aizen.

'He is really strong as a monster.' Grimmjow couldn't help but admitted. Aizen looked at them with his usual calm yet dangerous face.

"I think it's enough. Nnoitra, Grimmjow." He said, his head was resting on his fist, elbow on the throne's edge. Espada grumbled and turned their seats back. Aizen turned his face to Nnoitra.

"Is that true Nnoitra?" He asked, observing the taller Arrancar's behaviors. Octava's smirk returned to his face.

"Yeah, Nelliel Tu Odelschwank went to HELL!" He threw his tongue out, that was his way to show his satisfaction. Aizen thought for a moment then looked at him again, totally unfazed from his subordinate's death.

"So, we must find someone worth to fill her place. A new Tres Espada…" He stated, Nnoitra and Grimmjow's eyes glowed in excitement when the other ones didn't reacted. Aizen stood up and stared at the every Arrancar in the large room. He smiled slightly then turned his face to the door.

"Come in." He said to someone. After a while, a giant hamster-like hollow stepped in. There was a tentacle like organ on his head. Grand Fisher.

"Aizen-sama." He bowed with a smirk on his face, Aizen watched his behaivor without an emotion.

"Did you locate her?" He asked with a monotone voice. Fisher's smirk grew wider as he raised his face.

"Yes your majesty. She exited from some sort of sport club with her son, they are heading home." He replied. Aizen smiled and nodded his head.

"Very good Grand Fisher. You know what to do." He said.

"Of course." Fisher bowed again and turned around, heading to the door. Aizen's voice echoed in the room again.

"Bring the child to me." He ordered. Grand Fisher stopped then looked at the Shinigami over his shoulder, he laughed at these words.

"As you wish…" He said and stepped out from the room. Aizen wasn't pleased with his last action but let him go. He felt the Arrancar's gaze on him and turned to them.

"Sorry for my coriosity but what're you going to do with a human child , Aizen-sama?" Szayeleporro asked with a curious tone. Aizen smiled at his pink haired scientist.

"He has potential to become a GREAT pawn."

Same Day, Afternoon

For Natsu these two weeks passed with training and killing weak hollows. He wanted to go Soul Society but Urahara didn't let him go, he said something like that 'Oh my, you must get stronger and faster first or Shinigami can kill you in sight. You can be powerful but the number advantage is obvious.' Somehow all of his words irritated him. A week ago, he began to feel some kind of hunger for hollows and devoured his next prey. After he did that, his reiatsu increased a bit so he began to devour every enemy he killed.

Now.

Tessai ran out from the shop and looked around, he was obviously in hurry. He noticed Natsu doing push-ups on the ground, again. He was wearing just black jeans, his upper body was soaked in sweat and there was a bit black hollow matter around his hollow hole.

Tessai approached and locked his eyes on him.

"Natsu-dono, we got an emergency!" He yelled. Natsu pushed himself once more then stood up, straightened his 181 cm body (A/N Same with Ichigo after the timeskip). He didn't seem more muscular than two weeks ago but he seemed more healthy. He sent a look to Tessai.

"Yeah, I know. I am going now." He had already sensed the hollow, his senses was better than a shinigami's when the case was locating hollows.

(A/N Shinigami means all of the shinigamis or the race of shinigami, I'll use this a lot.)

He dried his body with a white towel then tossed it to Tessai's face, pissing him off. He took a white shirt and his zanpakuto which was already close to him, he began to run. He didn't know any tecnique to increase his speed so he used his natural speed.

Tessai cursed under his breath and took the wet towel on his face. Then he remembered something and extended a hand to Natsu's direction.

"Wait it's nothing you can handle alone!"

Natsu was already gone.

Pink haired hollow quickly put the shirt on and attached the zanpakuto to his belt when he was still running. His zanpakuto was a simple one, silver colored blade and white-black hilt. It didn't show any sign of liveliness in this two weeks.

He finally attached it and increased his speed. After ten minutes, he found the source of the reiatsu but it was nothing like other hollows. He looked up and finally saw its face, It was a giant… a gillian class.

There was a white spiked mask on its face, other places were covered with a black shadow-like cloak. There was no human in the range and it was Natsu's advantage. He was starting to get bored from the weak hollows, he devoured all of the hollows he has killed but they just increased his reiatsu a bit. Yes, reiatsu was all he has got. He didn't know any Arrancar skills on top of it his sword tecniques were pretty bad. It's only been two weeks for god's sake.

Fortunetely they were in outskirts of the city. When he noticed the hollow didn't care about him, he unleashed some reiatsu and made it focus on him. The hollow turned its 15 meter body and noticed Natsu standing in front of it. Natsu sent a bored look.

"You have no arms, how can you-" His eyes widened when he noticed a red sphere forming in front of its jaw, the monster didn't hesisate a second. When Natsu figured out what is that red sphere he almost trembled.

'That's it… Cero!' He mentally shouted. He locked his obsidian eyes at the huge creature, he wanted to see every detail. He didn't care about the fight for few seconds, he focused on the cero the hollow was creating. The Gillian was gathering its reiatsu to one point and it was so intense. After five seconds focusing it fired the cero at Natsu's location.

Natsu stood there without a move as the signature sound of Cero echoed in air. He observed every single move of the red beam and finally pulled his zanpakuto out. He held the sword in reverse position and pushed his reiatsu into it. The beam crashed into his sword but can't connect because of the intense reiatsu was blocking it.

'So strong!' Natsu almost fainted when he felt the power behind that attack, he fell on his knees and cracked the ground. The cero was crashing him like a bug.

He gritted his teeth and transfered more reiatsu into his zanpakuto. He felt power leaving his body and the beam coming closer to the blade. His eyes were closing and his body was going numb.

"Natsu, that was the best movie I've ever seen!" – THAT night.

Pink haired hollow's eyes wide opened, revealed the black orbs. He didn't care about his legs begging for mercy and stood up, pushing the beam a little back.

"I have no right to die that easily…" His voice slowly turned into a hollow, a very sinister one. His calm tone was making the scene more creepy. He held his zanpakuto firmly but still couldn't push it, he wasn't strong enough for this. Fortunetely the Cero couldn't remain more than ten seconds so it disappeared and caused Natsu's zanpakuto to cut the air.

Stange, a Garganta opened behind the Gillian and the creature began to move into it. Natsu's opponent was obviously running away. Cero, Its skill which can turn a small stadium to dust – was failed and there was no point to fight anymore. Natsu raised his face and looked at the Garganta for a second, then to the Hollow.

"You're not going anywhere." He said, his voice full of hatred. Pink haired Arrancar quickly jumped to air. There was no time to waste, he was going to finish this. He slashed his zanpakuto to Gillian's mask brutally. Unfortunetely, his sword couldn't go through its hierro but created several sparks. He felt his arm bounced back but he wasn't suprised that much. He began to fall to the ground.

He narrowed his eyes and looked around, searched for something to slow his falling. He looked at the black skin before his eyes. Pink haired Arrancar's reiatsu flowed to the tip of his sword and he thrust the blade forward. The zanpakuto pierced the dark skin and tore it all the way. The Gillian roared in pain, made the birds fly away(far away).

"Natsu-donoooo!" Tessai's voice heard. He, Kisuke and another man ran towards the Hollows. The man was no one other than Kurasaki Isshin. Natsu fell slowly until he reached to the big hole in the creature's chest. He somehow managed jump inside and landed on his feet. He quickly sheathed his zanpakuto, it was not useful any longer.

"Natsu-kun come down, we're going to kill it together!" Kisuke yelled with a worried voice when he and Isshin drew their zanpakutos. Natsu sent a 'I don't give a fuck' look to them and took a deep breath. He felt something is moving on his chest but decided to ignore.

He raised his right hand and directed his opened palm upwards. He gritted his teeth as the reiatsu left his body and flowed to his palm. He gathered everything he had into his palm and tried to intensify it more and more. After several attempts, a red light illuminated his face and made his smirk visible. Yes, his reiatsu transformed into a red energy sphere.

Shinigami's eyes widened when they saw this.

"Don't tell me…" Kisuke gasped. Issin narrowed his eyes.

"Cero…" He finished. Tessai stepped forward with a harsh move but couldn't say anything, it was pointless, the cero was complete.

'Eat this.' Natsu gathered more reiatsu and increased the Cero's size, it was as big as a baseball ball now.

"Cero!" He felt his body going numb and decided to release but couldn't fire the Cero, he didn't have enough control to command that big amount of reiatsu. The sphere began to move like a water balloon, in and out. Natsu's eyes widened in horror when he figured out what was happening. He tried the release again, at that second everything went black for him.

The cero exploded in the Gillians chest, totally blowing its upper body up. The shock wave of the explosion pushed everything near away. Shinigami protected themselves with a reiatsu barrier but a big tree flew toward them and hit the barrier, pushed them a little back.

After the explosion died down, they ran to there to learn if he was okay or not. Lower body of the Gillian fell to the ground, lifeless. Isshin turned his face to Urahara.

"The Cero exploded on him!" He said, waited for a reaction. Urahara tried to hid his worry.

"He won't die..." He replied with a small smile.

3 days ago

"Urahara-san show me how to open a Garganta, these hollows in Human World are sleazy." Natsu said with a tired expression. He placed the last box to the cellar and turned his face to the blonde man.

Urahara sighed lazily and cooled himself with the fan in his palm.

"Not so fast Natsu-chan, what if something happens you there. I'd be so sad." He said with fake tears. Natsu sweatdropped at the "-chan" part. He raised his face again and looked directly at Urahara's eyes. His pupils almost glowed in determination.

"I won't die until I find her."

Isshin sent a questioning look to him but it wasn't the best moment to ask. They rushed to the crater and waited for the dust cloud to scatter. After a few seconds, they heard a silent chuckle.

"Hahahaha…" They looked at the body lying on the ground with shocked faces, Urahara noted himself to not trust Natsu too much. Young hollow was lying in the center of the crater, all parts of his body was injured. His clothes were soaked in blood but the most shocking thing was… his right arm was missing and it was bleeding from the elbow level.

"What the hell is wrong with him!?" Isshin couldn't help but asked, the boy wasn't normal. Urahara stepped forward.

"Natsu-kun." He called. Natsu turned to him with a smirk on his face when his high-level regeneration kicked in.

"I killed it, Urahara san…"

They headed home without talking, Tessai supported Natsu to walk. Isshin joined them for some reason. Now, Ururu wrapped the last bandage around Natsu's arm then walked away.

"Thanks, Ururu." Natsu thanked her with a monotone voice, his poker face returned again. Urahara, Tessai, Isshin and him were sitting in the same room. Natsu wasn't lying, thanks to his high-speed regeneration his minor wounds healed in an hour. His arm was still the same, it was going to take some time. Isshin introduced himself to Natsu and noticed his hollow hole.

'So he really is a hollow…' He thought.

"Mind to tell me what were you thinking, Natsu-kun?" Urahara Kisuke asked with a calm voice.

Natsu wasn't ashamed a bit, he just did what he wanted to. He returned his glare with another one.

"Hmm? I was doing my job." He replied. Urahara narrowed his eyes.

"I never said you 'Go kill yourself!'" He yelled.

"I didn't die… again. I – "

"Stop it!" Urahara shouted caused Natsu to shut his mouth. Isshin looked at him with a suprised expression, did he just get angry?.

"Stop punishing yourself for stupid reasons. Do you think she would be happy to see you crawling on the ground without an arm. Nothing will change the past, she is-" Urahara shouted but got hit by a high amount of reiatsu and killing intent. Suddenly they felt the air became heavier.

"Don't dare to finish, KISUKE!" Natsu shouted back with his hollow voice. Urahara stood there waiting for his move, he was ready to beat some sense into him.

'His reiatsu is already on lieutenant level!' Isshin was suprised. Natsu glared at the blonde man for a few seconds then tch'ed, he began to walk to the door. Tessai decided to interfere.

"Where are you going Natsu-dono?" He asked with his usual voice. Natsu stopped but didn't turn around.

"I'll take some fresh air." He said, his voice was calmer than before, then stepped out. Urahara let out a deep breath then sat on the floor cross-legged. He took the fan and began to calm himself. Isshin sent a mocking look to him.

"What was that Urahara? You weren't a emotional type…" He teased. Urahara sighed again.

"Sorry about our little show, he reminds me my younger self so much." He stated. Tessai couldn't help but chuckled.

"You were nothing like him. You were totally an asocial, research maniac, gay and…" He couldn't continue when he noticed every word he had used was stabbed on Urahara like an arrow. Poor blonde man collapsed on the ground.

"Why you're doing me this… old pal." He cried. Tessai adjusted his glasses without an emotion when Isshin burst in laugher.

"HAHAHAH very true." He stated. Another comical arrow stabbed into Urahara and knocked him out. Isshin wiped the joy tears away and turned his face to Tessai.

"So, can you tell me about Urahara's new adopted son?" He asked, making Kisuke twitch. Tessai sighed and told Natsu's story as far as he know. Isshin was completely shocked.

"He tore the mask off, how is that possible?" He asked loudly. Urahara shook his head.

"I can't understand either, it must be pure will power." His expression darkened. "Or… anger"

Isshin narrowed his eyes.

"Another experiment of HIS huh?" He asked. Urahara simply nodded.

"Probably, yes…" He sighed. " I'll speak with him later. I must ask his girlfriend's name when he is back and help him in his search. In the other way, it's going to be hard to control him. He killed a gillian today and devoured its reiatsu, he is getting stronger DANGEROUSLY fast." He stated. Isshin nodded, the danger of hollow was obvious.

"Yeah, I felt it when he released his reiatsu. HE keeps creating monsters." He replied, didn't want to use his name for certain reasons. 'Aizen…'

Urahara swung his fan one more time and held his chin. What he was going to do with Natsu?

"By the way, how do you feel Isshin? I haven't seen you in that uniform for years." Kisuke asked. Isshin remembered that he is still wearing this and stood up, walked forwards his gigai. Actually it was his real body, he wasn't a shinigami anymore.

"Not bad but my reiatsu is pretty low. Probably even lower than Ururu…"

.
