AN: I want to thank FrankSinatra24 and Kira Neko Tetsu No Chi for following my story as well as MadnessIsAMust and Kira Neko Tetsu No Chi for favoriting my story. I also want to thank my beta FeatherRose242 for betaing my prologue and chapter one of my story. Those have both been updated so if you want to re read them with the grammar corrections feel free.
I finally got my first review so from now on after I give out my thanks I will be responding to reviews.
Dear guest reviewer,
Yes ichigo will be apearing in my story, however he will not be apearing for a little while. We are still pretty far back in the past. Ichigo isn't even a twinkle in isshin's eye yet. Masaki hasn't even been born yet. Please have some patients with me. Ichigo will get his turn in the spot light but my story will never revolve around him. I believe that i have set up my original character to be the main character fairly obviously. Ichigo's life will progress almost exactly like it did in the anime. He will still invade the soul society. He will still invade hueco mundo. He will even still defeat aizen. (i feel i was pretty clever in how i decided to pull this off since kioshi is stronger than ichigo.) I hope you will contenuie to read my storry.
sincerly,
Nick145
The following link is for a "story" I created that that contains Supporting Documents For The Silent Protector. Since I don't do a whole lot of explaining in my story (i expect the reader to have at least watched the anime enough to understand) this series of documents is here to assist others in understanding my messed up logic.

Anyways here it is. I hope you enjoy it. Please Read and Review.

"That and so much more Head-Captain," Said Kioshi with an excitement laced tone of voice.
"Then prove it." The Head-Captain raised his right arm, with his palm flat and facing Kioshi called out "Hadō #33 Sōkatsui."
In the few seconds it took the ball of blue fiery energy to get to Kioshi he was only able to point the hilt of his zanpakutō towards the blast. Thankfully that's all he needed to do. With a smirk plastered on his face he called out "Siphon!" The blast if energy was absorbed into his blade at
Yamamoto and shouted "Expel!" The same blue energy that was just sent at Kioshi had just been sent back at Yamamoto with double the force.
The almighty Head-Captain didn't look phased at all. In fact he looked as calm as ever. "Bakudō #81 Danku." The barrier materialized just in time to stop the doubled attack. "What the hell was that? Is that all the captain of the famous fourteenth division has to offer? If so it's pathetic."
Kioshi sheathed his blade and calmly responded. "That was my soul ability. You know as well as I do after one thousand years of being dead a soul gets a strange and unique ability. Mine just so happens to be energy manipulation. It works very similarly to your pupil's zanpakutō. I believe his name is Ukitake. Pathetic is it? Well then try this on for size." Kioshi then raised both of his arms level with his chest and pointed his flat palms towards the Head-Captain. "Ye lord! Mask of blood and flesh, all creation, flutter of wings, ye who bears the name of man! On the wall of blue flame, inscribe a twin lotus. In the abyss of conflagration, wait at the far heavens. Hadō #73 Sōren Sōkatsui!" His Hadō blasted right into the Danku, shattering it.
The Head-Captain had to dodge the remains of the blast using shunpo. He then shunpoed directly behind Kioshi, who in turn drew his sword from his sheath once again, hoping to be able to slice the Head-Captain in half.
Yamamoto didn't get to his position by being unobservant so he noticed what Kioshi was going to do, and managed to back off in time to dodge the zanpakutō that wanted to chop him clean in two. He then raised his right index finger and said "Hadō #4 Byakurai." A beam of white electric like energy shot out of his finger and headed straight for Kioshi.
Kioshi managed to hold the attack in place using the flat side of his sword but he couldn't quite deflect it yet.
While Kioshi was held in one place Yamamoto shunpoed behind him once more. Genreusai held his palm flat against Kioshi's back and called out Hadō #33 Sōkatsui!" As soon as the words left his mouth the head captain jumped back in an extremely impressive flash step.
A massive explosion erupted the second the Head-Captain was out of range of the blast. The explosion managed to kick up a dust cloud large enough to completely conceal what Kioshi was doing.
Inside the dust cloud Kioshi was checking himself over to see what kind of wounds he had received. "All in all not bad. A few minor burns, and a single moderate burn on my back. I have to say that's pretty dam good for going against the most powerful soul reaper in the soul society."
Just then an eerie and almost metallic voice broke through Kioshi's consciousness, startling the captain. "King if you want to defeat him we are going to need to surprise him.
Reclaiming his composure Kioshi replied to the voice in his head. "And just how do you suppose we surprise the oldest soul reaper in existence hollow?"
"Use my powers. He won't understand what's going on."
"Are you sure?"
"Definitely."
"Alrighty then. It's worth a shot. You remember our agreement right?"
"Of course, if I give you access to my powers you let me roam free in Hueco Mundo for one week as long as I don't disobey your rules."
"Good you do remember. So what should we use?"
"Well a Bala won't have enough power, but a cero takes a bit of time to charge up."
"I guess I forgot to mention we are surrounded by a huge dust cloud, huh?"
"Ya you did dumb ass! So if we have time to use a cero, use it."
"Ok let's do this."
Kioshi then took a deep breath and let it out. As soon as his lungs were empty a bunch of white goop shot out of his mouth and eye sockets; covering his face and hardening to form a hollows mask. "God I hate that, it feels so weird."
"Stop complaining and just use the god dammed cero king!"
"Fine. Stop rushing me."
Back outside the dust cloud Yamamoto senses a change in Kioshi's reiatsu. "How odd it almost seems to becoming like a hollow's."
Back inside the dust cloud Kioshi raised his right arm. He also folded in his pinky and ring finger, sticking his middle and index finger straight out; and his thumb straight up. A sphere of glowing red energy that had a very sinister feeling was forming at the end of his fingers. As it got bigger it also got brighter. All of a sudden Kioshi whispered "Cero." The blast took off at incredible speeds heading straight for Yamamoto.
As skilled and as observant as the Head-Captain is he was simply just unprepared for a soul reaper to fire a cero at him. He was so surprised that he wasn't able to block the deadly blast in time and ended up taking the full force of the hit.
Another massive explosion occurred, causing another huge dust cloud to be kicked up. This time it concealed what the Head-Captain was doing.
Inside the dust cloud Yamamoto checked himself over to see what kind of wounds he had received. "Dammit! I can't believe I forgot about his hollow powers. That was the most powerful cero I have ever come into contact with. Even the one Vasto Lorde I have encountered and defeated didn't have a cero that powerful. If he is using those powers that means he is serious. I guess I better get serious as well."
All of a sudden the air temperature rose from a crisp 52oF to a smoldering 107oF.
The head captain unsheathed his blade that was attached to his hip and spoke in a commanding voice. "All things in the universe turn to ashes. Ryujin Jakka!" As soon as the words left the Head-Captains mouth his sword erupted in flames as hot as the sun itself.
When this happened only one thing was going through Kioshi's head. "Holy shit the head captain is really getting serious. I guess it's time for me to use my shikai as well." He then pointed his zanpakutō towards the sky and looked directly at Yamamoto who was just starting to become visible in the settling dust cloud. While moving the tip of the blade in a figure eight motion he called out, "Bite and strangle. Hebinoō!"
His body and his zanpakutō were engulfed in an eerie green glow. The blade started to change shape. It went from a normal katana to looking like a bull whip made out of a snake. The whip was covered in black and white metallic scales and ended in a snakes head. It had bright green eyes and a purple forked tongue.
For just about one whole minute the two combatants stared each other down. Then as if on some cue provided by the slight breeze blowing through the clearing they shot off towards each other. Using shunpo they moved faster than most eyes could see, their blades collided with the sound of metal hitting metal. As soon as the blades met their wielders would back away and attempt another angle of attack, hoping to catch the other off guard. After two minutes of neither one getting a hit in on the other they entered a blade lock.
Kioshi looked directly into the Head-Captains eyes and spoke. "Sir, I will only say this once, so please listen carefully. My men are innocent. They had these powers thrust upon them against their own free will. They aren't even true hybrids like me. Their powers are mere imitations. Please understand I am just protecting the innocent just as I have done for the past 400 years by protecting the spiritually enriched zones in the world of the living, as well as the leadership of Hueco Mundo. Don't forget how far I am willing to go to protect my family, and what I can and will do to seek my revenge upon those who would threaten their lives or hurt them."
At the last sentence of Kioshi's rant Genreusai's not only opened, but they also got this far away look in them. After a few seconds they refocused and became saddened. "I remember the incident with your wife 200 years ago. I know full well what you are willing to do and what you are capable of."
As Yamamoto was talking Kioshi's expression changed from determined to one of sadness then to one of pure anger and hatred. "An incident? Is that all you think it was? Just a fucking incident! Are you insane!?" Then his expression morphed to one of understanding. "I see. You believe the line of bullshit the Central Forty-Six put out about Shizu's death. Well Head-Captain since I am the only living person that knows everything about that night I will explain it to you, just as I did all those years ago."
"When that Vasto Lorde broke into the seireitei Captain Inuzuri jumped into action immediately charging at the hollow. I sensed the disturbance and rushed towards them. They were heading straight towards my house where my wife and infant son were. She erected a barrier around our son in order to protect him from the dangerously high spiritual pressures. My wife ran outside and demanded they fight somewhere else. She raised her spiritual pressure and released her Bankai in warning. Futsunushi killed her. He didn't even have the balls to look her in the eye. He stabbed her through the back!"
After Kioshi's explanation Yamamoto looked at Kioshi with saddened eyes then they turned fiery with determination. "That was extremely sad and I am truly sorry about that. Futsunushi Inuzuri will be formally removed from our history. Unfortunately for you that makes no difference." With a downward swing of his zanpakutō he sent a massive arc of fire at Kioshi.
Kioshi's eyes momentarily widened before he smirked. He brought his blade up to the attack and said "Siphon." When he said this something strange happened. The bulbous snake head opened its mouth, moved so it was facing the fire, swallowed up the Head-Captains flames, and then closed again. Kioshi then shunpoed behind the Head-Captain and called out "Expel." The head once again opened up, only this time it shot flames out of it. The flames it vomited forth had twice the power and a slightly green outline.
The Head-Captain spun around and blocked the counter attack with his zanpakutō. Then the flames were absorbed back into said sword. In an angry and arrogant tone he called out to Kioshi. "Did you really think my own attack could hurt me?"
Kioshi had disappeared from view yet you could still tell he was smiling by his tone of voice. "Not at all Head-Captain. I just needed to distract you for a second."
The head captain was looking for where Kioshi was hiding when he gave the reply "What do you mean?"
"Bakudō #61 Rikujōkōrō!" The six rods of light slammed into the Head-Captain from all directions so he still didn't know where Kioshi was. "Bakudō #63 Sajo Sabaku!" This time as the golden kidō rope wrapped around its target Yamamoto finally spotted Kioshi, but it was already too late for him to do anything about it; he was already bound in two upper-mid range Bakudō by a captain that he was beginning to believe was just as strong as himself.
Kioshi then did something that the Head-Captain never expected. Kioshi sliced open his hand with a small blade hidden in the hilt of his zanpakutō. He then wiped the blood on his other hand and made a solid fighting stance. He had his hands facing the Head-Captain with his thumbs and index fingers touching. He shouted at the top of his lungs "Grand Ray Cero!"
Just before the massive death blast that was black with a green outline reached the elder captain he managed to angle one of his hands towards the cero and said, "Hadō #73 Sōren Sōkatsui!" The two massive beams of energy met and struggled for dominance. Then the blue Hadō overwhelmed the green tinged black cero and launched itself directly at Kioshi.
It's a good thing Kioshi still had his hollow mask on because regular shunpo would not have gotten him out of the way on time. He had to use his special high speed technique that combined shunpo and sonído. He launched himself into the air and managed to doge the attack completely. Then Kioshi said, "That's it I can't take any more chances like that. I'll have to use my ultimate weapon in order to beat you. I should have known it would have to come to this for me to win." Then he dropped to the ground and stabbed his zanpakutō into the dirt next to him.
"Is that it Kioshi? Are you finally finished?"
"Nope I'm just getting started."
"Oh really now? Why don't you show me?"
"I'd be happy to."
Kioshi then took a deep breath and spoke in a calm voice. "Bankai."
