Before we get started I want to answer a question I've received quite a lot, will Ichigo make an appearance in this? No he will not, and I'm fully aware that by saying that I've just lost half of you. I don't like it when every crossover stars the main character of an anime so when given the choice of whether or not to include characters like Ichigo, Naruto, or Luffy, I usually choose to not use them. No offense to those characters, I fucking love Luffy, but if I wanted to see something all about them I'd watch their original work. When reading fanfiction I like what my buddy The Baz does and only use rather under used characters as my main characters. It's something new in a sea of Ichigo stories. So sorry to all you Ichigo fans, but he will not be showing up in this fic, though if you can get over that I can promise you'll like what I've got in store. Also yes, I know exactly who and what both Tensa and Shiro really are, as for what I plan on doing with that knowledge, you'll have to wait and see. Oh and one last thing, while I will do my damnedest to keep both characters as close to their actual personalities as possible, I will hae to take some liberties here and there with their enteractions with each other, we didn't see a ton of their relationship in the show or manga so I'm gonna have to do my own thing to a point there. Lets get started.
2 years later
"That barely filled me up at all, these damn things haven't got almost any meat on them." Shiro groaned as he stood at the center of a large clearing in a forest on the outskirts of Vale, surrounding him were several dozen dead beowulves and Ursa. As the monsters dissolved into smoke that smoke flowed into his blade. "This energy tastes horrible, it's like eating a piece of burnt wood." He continued complaining knowing full well the only person who could hear him would rather he not talk. "I hope another hunter targets us soon, now thats some good eating."
"Would you please stop with your inane babbling." Tensa barked from within their head.
"Well maybe I wouldn't be so bored if you'd let me go into town to hang around and explore, it's all trees and fields and shit outside the walls!" Shiro shouted back at the voice in his head, to anyone who could have been watching it would just look like an insane man yelling at nobody.
Tensa growled. "You could have if you hadn't gone and made yourself wanted across Remnant! That aside, I don't trust you around people." He shouted back at his other half. He didn't really care so much about the fact that Shiro had caused destruction and killed people that bothered him, they were a sword first and foremost, but instead the trouble his wreaking havoc had brought them.
It was true, over the past two years as the pair had traveled across Remnant, Shiro had gotten them into any number of bad situations. Now the white themed mans face was plastered up all over the four kingdoms for charges ranging from property destruction to murdering licensed hunters. If for whatever reason they had to enter into a settlement or city Tensa would always have to take over and put up his hood to not draw attention or be recognized. Otherwise the black themed half generally let Shiro have control over their body, it kept him from complaining as much as he would and because they spend the large majority of their time wandering the wilderness around kingdoms Shiro got to kill all the Grimm he could ever want.
It wasn't until about a month of wandering that the pair noticed the Grimm were constructs of corrupted spiritual energy, similar to hollows but lacking any capabilities for higher levels of thought. Once this became clear they began slaying the beasts where ever they could be found adsorbing their spiritual energy rather than eating to keep themselves alive. Killing grimm was really the only thing they'd been doing besides getting into trouble over the past two years.
As Zanpakuto neither really knew how to choose a path for themselves to take, they were a weapon to be used as their wielder saw fit. Without Ichigo calling the shots they were at some what of a loss. Zanpakuto were created to slay hallows, grimm were extremely similar to hollows. So without someone to point them in a direction they had gravitated towards the task most familiar to them, killing grimm. Neither had spoken with the other about this but it was clearly something that bothered both.
"Shiro."
"Yeah yeah I know." Shiro groaned as he scratched the back of his head. Turning around he swiped his blade horizontally sending out an arc of black energy into the forest behind him obliterating every tree it touched. "Next time I swing it'll be in your direction, so come on out while I'm still feeling nice." Shiro shouted into the air, calling to the person he could sense watching him.
After several seconds of silence a young woman with long black hair and a red dress, Shiro let out a whistle and grinned. "Well Tensa, if I've ever seen someone who looked menacing."
"I agree, the whole glowing amber eyes thing kinda screams sinister." Tensa replied from within his head.
Shiro leaned his blade against his shoulder as the woman stopped approaching several feet away. "I thought the reports were exaggerated when they said you shared the same presence as a grimm, now to feel it for myself, I can definitely see what they meant." She spoke in a tone that was practically dripping seduction, unfortunately neither men cared much for it.
"What do you want lady, I'm trying to have a conversation here and your distracting us." Shiro spoke with very little interest in the woman in front of him.
She frowned at his complete indifference to her charms, she decided to switch her game up a bit. "I've been looking for you and your associate for quite some time, however every time I get close you disappear. Speaking of which, is your partner, the man in black anywhere around here? My information always puts the two of you near one another."
Shiro chuckled. "Yeah, Tensa's nearby. We were just talking about what to do next when you popped in, now I'll give you one more warning." Shiro pointed his blade at the woman. "Tell me what you want before I skewer you."
"Hold on a second, switch with me."
"What the hell for?" He spoke again earning a raise eyebrow from the woman he was just threatening.
"Because you suck at dealing with people, now switch."
Shiro grumbled. "Fine, but I'm taking control again when your done."
Minutes earlier
Cinder stood with her back to the a large tree as she peered around it's trunk just enough to watch her target effortlessly slaughtering a large group of grimm. Cinder was no stranger to brutality but even she felt slight pity for the beasts as the white garbed man toyed with them, drawing out their deaths purposely for his own enjoyment.
Despite this however she grinned, this was definitely the man she'd been looking for. She continued to watch while thinking of the best ways to approach, after several minutes she saw something that really caught her attention, the essence released by the dead grimm were being sucked into his sword. It wasn't until the man swung his blade and sent an arc of black energy she recognized from the footage of 'The day of shattered sky' as the media took to calling it. It tore through the forest not to far from her destroying everything in it's path.
"Next time I swing it'll be in your direction, so come on out while I'm still feeling nice." She heard him call out, cursing herself slightly for giving herself away.
Cinder considered running for a moment but quickly pushed the thought aside, her reports mentioned he had the ability of high speed movement. Then there was the fact that she knew that his partner, the man in black was never to far away.
Stepping out from her cover she made her way into the clearing strutting as seductively as usual, seduction was always a good place to start when dealing with a man, nine out of ten times it got her where she needed. She thought she had him when he whistled, a noise she was very use to. "Well Tensa, if I've ever seen someone who looked menacing." That a frown, he could already tell she had an ulterior motive but she assumed that 'Tensa' must be the man in black. She was confident in her abilities but based on what she'd heard and seen of the man before her, well she'd rather not fight both him and his partner, whom she still couldn't locate as she looked around, at the same time without back up.
"I thought the reports were exaggerated when they said you shared the same presence as a grimm, now to feel it for myself, I can definitely see what they meant." Play on your strengths, don't give up on seduction just yet. Unfortunately it only seemed to annoy the man further.
"What do you want lady, I'm trying to have a conversation here and your distracting us." He spoke without the slightest bit of interest in Cinder, she gave another quick glance around looking for the man in black.
She was starting to get annoyed as well, she hated it when she wasn't in control of a situation and right now she didn't even know where the second one was. "I've been looking for you and your associate for quite some time, however every time I get close you disappear. Speaking of which, is your partner, the man in black anywhere around here? My information always puts the two of you near one another."
The man laughed. "Yeah, Tensa's nearby. We were just talking about what to do next when you popped in, now I'll give you one more warning. Tell me what you want before I skewer you." He raised his blade to her setting her even further on guard, it took everything she had not to call forth her bow to defend herself. Then he stopped. "What the hell for?" He spoke to seemingly himself again causing Cinder to raise an eyebrow at this. After another second he growled. "Fine, but I'm taking control again when you're done." She knew based off reputation that the man was crazy, she was use to crazy being a criminal and all, but this was beyond frustrating.
Cinder was on the verge of asking who he was speaking to, then something she would never have expected happened. Black energy began pouring out of the blade and quickly moving up his arm until his entire body shifted color, even his eyes changed from yellow to blue. "You've been looking for me?" The man spoke in a different sounding voice, it was deeper and far more calm sounding than before.
For the first time in her life Cinder was speechless, her brain still trying to comprehend what just happened. It took several seconds before she noticed she was staring and recomposed herself. "Yes, my apologies. I hadn't expect you two to be-"
"The same person? We're not, he is a completely different being than I, as I am completely different than him. We merely have the misfortune of sharing a single body. Now, you have still not yet introduced yourself." He gestured for her to do so.
Clearing her throat Cinder obliged. "My name is Cinder Fall, and I wish to speak with you about a mutually beneficial partnership if you'll hear me out."
He didn't answer for several seconds. "I will hear your words but can make no promises. Speak."
Cinder smiled widely. "Very well, please come with me, I'd rather we speak somewhere a bit more private."
Beacon Academy
"So that's basically the school, it can be confusing at first but you get use to it." Ruby smiled happily at the tall woman following her, she'd been tasked with showing the newest professor around for the day. As she looked at the woman for what had to be the hundredth time that day she once again found herself taken aback by her sheer beauty.
Ruby wasn't attracted to other women in that way at all, but still she couldn't help but take the gorgeous woman's appearance in, as well as every male student they passed by, though without sharing their clear thoughts of lust. She had very long silky black hair that flowed all the way down to her lower back and her eyes were a deep emerald color. She wore a light pink kimono with an image of crashing waves across the lower half, a large light blue sash was wrapped around her waist. The only thing that didn't scream womanly beauty in fact was the sheathed katana in her hand, it had an emerald handle the very same color as her eyes and a hexagonal guard.
"Thank you very much for showing me around today Ruby, I think it will be much easier to navigate the school thanks to you." She gave a genuine and gentle smile to the young girl. "I look forward to teaching you this year."
Ruby couldn't help but blush at the praise. "What class will you be teaching again?"
"Combat strategy as well as philosophy, though the second one will only be an optional elective." She replied happily to the young girl.
"Well I'll definitely look into it, I know Weiss and Blake probably will to, though I doubt Yang would ever be interested." The woman giggled at this. "By the way, I'm so sorry about this, but could you please remind me of your name?" Ruby asked sheepishly.
The woman smiled again. "Please, call me Professor Kyoka."
BOOM! Another chapter down with a massive bomb dropped at the end there. Don't worry my children I plan on explaining EVERYTHING in do time. Until then however you should leave me a review and tell me what you all think as well as check out my other stories. Until next time friends.
