Harry Potter – Soul Reaper
In a quiet suburban neighbourhood at night, in Surrey, England, sat a house. This house was the fourth house of the street Privet Drive, all the houses in this street were all very pleasant and similar, almost uniform even, where nothing out of the ordinary could be expected to happen. However this evening several things out of the ordinary did happen, first an old man that would have been able to pass himself off as Merlin due to his appearance had just seemed to have popped out of nowhere and then individually put out each street lamp, soon after that a nearby cat transformed into a woman that for all purposes appeared to be dressed as a witch, after the two people arrived at Number 4, a motorbike of all things came out of the sky, and it's drive was just as unusual, with his impressive height putting him head and shoulders above the tallest of men after a brief argument they trio left a baby on the front step of the house, with a note hidden in his blankets, before then leaving just as easily as they came.
And it is here where our story truly begins. As the child shivered in the cold November air he was woken by a dark pressure that filled the area, he was able to look around and found himself in a place he had never been before, he was scared but there was no one there for him. The source of the oppressive feelings soon made itself known as a rip in the very air itself appeared, from which, what can only be described as a monster stepped out of it. It was around twelve feet tall, and on all fours like a gorilla with four sickle like claws on its hands and had a sickly purple collared skin but the most distinguishing feature about it was the bone whit mask that covered it's head, the face looked just like a human skull except for its yellow eyes and large canines.
Once the rip seemed to have finished mending itself the creature raised its head an took in the scent of its surroundings, once it had locked onto a particular scent it began to lumber its way down the street until it was only half a dozen feet away, looking down at the baby that had just been left on the door step earlier that evening, it fear filled eyes looking right back at it,
"So you're the source of the tasty smelling spirit energy. A shame that you only look like a little snack." It's voice had a hollow and echoing sound about it.
It lean slightly towards the baby before sniffing again,
"Ah but you seem to have more than your own spirit energy, it's only a little but still it it's a bonus. Oh well, bon appétit."
As the creature began to reach out for the child with one of its clawed hands there was a barely noticeable shift in the air before the child cried out, releasing an amount of spiritual power that made the creature falter before a blade came down and cut through the creature's arm. It reared back and screamed in pain as it held its bleeding stump. When it looked back to where the baby was and found that in between them stood a person dressed in black Japanese-style robes, with a sword held in her hand looking bored despite facing the monstrosity before her,
"You bitch! You honestly want to fight me, Soul Reaper?" it screamed at her,
"No. You're not worth it."
Before the creature had time to respond she had rushed forward and cleaved its head in two. Sheathing her sword, she walked towards the baby to see if it was alright and was surprised to find it looking at her,
"Huh, that's odd. Most humans shouldn't see me. Especially not a baby."
Seeing a piece of, what appeared to be, parchment in blanket that the baby was wrapped up in, she picked it up and read it to see if she could find out why it was left out,
"Dumbasses. What were they thinking leaving you out here, you could get a cold or worse."
She thought for a moment before picking up the baby,
"I suppose you can stay with me tonight lil' Harry."
The next morning, after Vernon Dursley had left for work, Petunia Dursley was watching a chat show on the television when she heard someone knocking on the front door. Opening it she found herself answering to a person in a pink sundress, holding a baby that had a familiar set of eyes,
"Mrs Dursley?" she enquired,
"Yes?" Petunia enquired numbly
"I was out late last night and I found your nephew on your front step, and since I didn't want him to freeze to death I brought him with me so I could bring him to you now." she answered quickly,
When the stranger said 'nephew' alarm bell started to ring in Petunia's mind,
"Excuse me?" she practically growled out,
"Don't worry he's okay," The stranger replied smiling "anyway the note here says that you need to take care of him now and..."
"No!" Petunia said firmly,
"Huh?"
"My family and I don't want anything to do with the freak, he is not welcome here. Leave!" and with that Petunia slammed the door in the stranger's face.
Feeling a strange shift in the spiritual pressure in the area, the Soul Reaper began to walk away,
"Bitch. Don't worry lil' Harry you won't have to go to her, but what to do?" She furrowed her brow in concentration, "It's a shame you can't come with me." Her eyes suddenly opened in realisation, "Hey, why not? You had fun with me right?" Harry gurgled happily in response, "And proved last night I could take care of you." She nodded he head in confirmation, "Come on lil' Harry. Once I get rid of this gigai we're heading to Soul Society."
A week later one on the captains of the Gotei 13, was making his way through his barracks looking for his lieutenant, it was day that they were supposed to do their paper work and although he knew she hated to do it, he was at least going to get her to do at least some of it. Ever since she had gotten back from the world of the living a week ago she seemed to have spent most of her time in her room, and when he did see her she seemed to be a lot more tired than usually, although he would never admit it, he was worried that she might be sick. Not finding her anywhere he decide to check her room, normally she would be up by now but given how had been recently...
Finally arriving at his lieutenant's room he knocked on the door, which seemed to trigger a scuffling of movement,
"I'll be out in a minute!" his lieutenant's voice rang out,
After a minute of waiting, which seemed drag on longer than it should for the captain, the door opened slightly letting his lieutenant's head poke through,
"Good morning." She greeted him brightly,
He found this suspicious as normally she would have already jumped on his back and asked him if he had any candy,
"Yachiru, what are you hiding?" The 11th division captain asked,
"Hiding? I'm not hiding anything Kenny." The pink haired girl answered, not making eye contact with her father figure,
"Then I guess you won't mind me coming in then?"
As Kenpachi made his way into the room he found that there seemed to be nothing out of place and there lied the problem, normally he would have to be careful to avoid breaking one of the numerous toys that were strewn about the room, it was too clean. As he looked around the room he found that her bed had quite a large lump in it.
He reached for the covers,
"Yachiru, what have I told you about no pets?"
When he looked at what the lump was he was surprised, to find that it was actually a baby boy dressed in one of Yachiru's spare uniforms (which was much too big for it), sucking on a lollipop, he looked back at his lieutenant,
"Yachiru ... what's this?"
She smiled at him proudly before replying
"My baby."
Kenpachi just looked at her completely stupefied after hearing the words no parent ever wants to hear from their (very) underage daughter, when the words sunk in he started to unleash enough spiritual pressure to be felt across the Seireitei, that no special eye-patch would be able to keep contained,
"WHAT!"
After finally calming down he called his 3rd seat, Ikkaku Madarame, and his 5th seat, Yumichika Ayasegawa, to his office along with Yachiru and the boy, Harry Potter. Both officers were just as surprised to find out that their Lieutenant Kusajishi had somehow managed to get her hands on a baby,
"Yachiru I want you to explain to me why you have a baby." The imposing captain asked his subordinated/adoptive daughter,
"Why are Baldy and Yun-Yun here?" she asked innocently,
"Because I might have to ask for their opinions about what to do," 'and how best to keep you busy while I make whoever's responsible suffer.'
"Oh, okay."
Yachiru then proceeded to tell them about the event that led to her taking care of Harry, when she finished Kenpachi was pinching the bridged of his nose in frustration,
"Yachiru, you have to take him back."
Yachiru looked devastated,
"But he's got nowhere to go!"
"Yachiru, you're still a child yourself. You can't look after a baby. He has to go back." Kenpachi said,
"A shame really, he does have beautiful eyes." Yumichika added,
"But it's not fair he's like my strong lil' brother."
"It doesn't matter i... did you say strong?" Kenpachi asked,
"Oh boy," Ikkaku groaned,
"Yeah, when the Hollow tried to eat him, he released enough power to scare it. Not as much as you Kenny but he's still a baby."
Kenpachi leaned back into his chair in contemplation, before breaking out into a psychotic grin,
"Alright I'll let you keep him, but on one condition…"
"Really? What is Kenny?" Yachiru asked, her eye practically sparkling,
"I get to train the kid when he's older, if he's as strong as you say then he should be able to give me a good challenge after I'm finished putting him through some thorough training."
Both Ikkaku and Yumichika suddenly felt sorry for the boy, they considered their Captain's regular 'light' training tough, if this kid went through with the Captain's thorough training it would probably kill him. Or turn him into a mini-Kenpachi.
Meanwhile Yachiru leapt across the table to give her captain a hug,
"Thank you! Thank you! Thank You! You hear that Harry I'm going to be your new sister."
"Yachi! Yachi!" The baby said, while waving his hands happily,
And so Harry was looked after by the second least parental division in the Gotei 13 (with the 12th being the least). Yachiru had Ikkaku make small bands filled with rice, which they then attached to Harry's wrists and ankles, in order to start building up his strength as well a small woden sword for him to practice with whenever he tried to copy members of the division, especially Kenpachi, though at times he seemed to use it as a chew toy. Yumichika decided that if they were going be bringing up the kid then he was at least try and make it so the kid had some decent fashion sense, granted the kid was more likely to get the clothes covered in mud but hey it takes time to make a masterpiece. Everybody burst out laughing when Harry tried to say Ikkaku's name for the first time, he had made decent efforts with the Captain ("Ken"/"Kenny"), Lieutenant ("Yachi") and the 5th seat ("Yumi") but Ikkaku's 'nickname' came about when he was about to feed the kid,
*Flashback*
Ikkaku was mixing up some porridge for the baby when he first heard it,
"Icky."
"Huh?"
"Icky."
"What are you talking about kid? You like this, hell, you had some yesterday."
Harry then pointed at him,
"Ikky."
The men around them started to quietly chuckle, and Ikkaku started to realise what the kid was trying to say, no way was he going to let himself be called Icky,
"It's Ikkaku, kid."
"Ikky."
"Ikkaku."
"Ikky."
Ikkaku sighed,
"Ikkaku. Say it with me, Ik-ka-ku."
Harry just scrunched his face up in frustration before speaking,
"Baldie."
Ikkaku's eye twitched as the men burst out laughing,
"God damn it! You little ..."
*End Flashback*
Needless to say Harry learnt several new words that day, and continued to call Ikkaku 'Baldie' ever since. Even now Ikkaku swear that the kid does it to annoy him, but unfortunately he's the only one that sees the mischievous glint, one very similar to his pink haired vice-captain. At least he didn't bite his head like Yachiru, although he admitted that it was probably only a matter of time.
Surprisingly Kenpachi actually turned out to be quite good at dealing with the boy (at least when compared to the rest of the division , when question about it he simply responded that he had experience from dealing with Yachiru when they were still in the Rukon District.
For two months the division kept their 'unofficial recruit' a secret, until it became time for the yearly physicals.
Retsu Unohana, Captain of the 4th division, made her way over to the 11th division's barracks, followed closely by her lieutenant- Isane Kotesu. The reason for her visting the barracks was simple, both Captain Zaraki and Lieutenant Kusajishi had skipped their annual physical exams, again, and so she was forced to go retrieve them herself, again, it was quite irritating for the normally gentle captain.
After politely asking one of the division members where they might be Unohana and Isane made their way to Lieutenant Kusajishi's room. When they was just about to enter the room they heard Kenpachi's voice coming from inside,
"... and with a final swing of his sword the powerful warrior cut the fucking dragon's head clean off."
Isane was visibly shocked at the language that Kenpachi was using to tell what should be a children's story, Unohana thought that it seemed pretty typical of the imposing captain,
"And then what happened?"
"The warrior went to his woman where they then ..."
Deciding to step in before it got too graphic in a different sense, Unohana opened the door to the room,
"Captain Zaraki are you sure you should be going into such detail with ... such ... young ..."
The reason for Unohana's surprise was that not only was Kenpachi telling the story to Yachiru but also to what appeared to be a very young boy. Looking towards her fellow captain still smiling as serenely as usual,
"Zaraki. Explain. Now." Her voice however lacked the usual warmth it had and considering frosty would be an understatement.
Zaraki Kenpachi may be a lot of things, brave? Yes. Insane? Definitely. Stupid? No. So when faced with a pissed-off Unohana that wants information, he did one of the few sensible things in his life.
He talked faster than Yachiru on a sugar rush.
The next day, Captain-Commander Yamamoto called an immediate, mandatory meeting for all captains and vice-captains. He had been informed by Captain Unohana that not only was the 11th division hiding a child but also a human child from the world of the living with the support of the captain, the reason apparently was because Captain Zaraki of all people wanted to bring the child up, granted bring him up into a mini-Zaraki no doubt. Normally he would have ordered the child to have been taken to its proper guardians or an orphanage of some kind; however Captain Unohana mentioned that there may be some complications that would need to be addressed. Hence why he called for the highest officers of soul society, Captain Unohana wanted to explain it to all of the captains at once and it would also allow for all of them to reason out the best course of action.
Once most of the captains and vice-captains had assembled an uncomfortable silence descended upon them. After ten minutes of waiting the 8th division captain, Shunsui Kyōraku, spoke up,
"I'm going to go out on a limb here, old-man Yama, and guess that you didn't call us here for a social call, eh?"
"Indeed, but there are still two officers missing as well as the subject of this meeting." Yamamoto responded,
The Captain of the 12th Division and President of the Shinigami Research and Development Institute, Mayuri Kurostuchi, spoke up,
"Ah yes, the barbarian Zaraki and his pink-haired brat. Given how bad both their senses of direction are perhaps the 'subject' should be retrieved so we can continue the meeting without having to waste time waiting for them."
"That is not an available option, given that Captain Zaraki is the one bringing the subject of this meeting, besides I can feel his spiritual pressure approaching and he should be here any minute." Answered Yamamoto,
Indeed a minute later the imposing captain made his way into the room with his lieutenant hanging onto one of his shoulders as usual, what surprised everyone else was the black haired boy hanging onto his other shoulder,
"See Kenny, I told you this was the way."
"I guess you were right this time."
" 'This time?' It's not my fault that you keep getting lost." Yachiru said while looking genuinely confused,
"You're the one that gives me the directions." Kenpachi replied getting frustrated,
"Don't blame others for your own mistakes Kenny." She replied,
"Yay Yachi!" The little boy said, waving one of his arms in the air, the long sleeves hiding his hand,
"See? Lil' Harry agrees with me."
"He would." Kenpachi grumbled
Upon seeing the extra 'guest' the other officers easily concluded that the boy was going to be the subject of the meeting, however why exactly they couldn't guess. Some the ideas that was running through their heads ranged from Captain Zarkai secretly having a son and was about to announce who the mother was, to someone loaning their powers to the boy and was unable to get them back (but how likely was that?). Rangiku Matsumoto, Vice Captain of the 10th Division, paused just a moment before quickly appearing next to Kenpach in order to get a better look at Harry,
"Aww, he's so cute in that little robe." She gushed, her eyes sparkling as she held her arms out the boy, "Come give Rangiku a hug."
The boy easily jumped from Kenpachi's back and wrapped his arms around the lieutenant's neck. Feeling embarrassed by the actions of his lieutenant, the Captain of the 10th Division, Tōshirō Hitsugaya, reminded her to let the meeting commence,
"Matsumoto, in case you haven't realised it we are currently in a meeting. You can play with the baby later."
It was at this moment that the Captain of the 3rd Division, Gin Ichimaru, chose to speak up,
"My, My. What's the matter little Tōshirō? Jealous?" His ever present smirk present on his face,
"Hardly. And it's Captain Hitsugaya." The young captain replied frostily,
"So only a little bit then."
"Shut it you ..."
Before Hitsugaya could finish his sentence, the captain commander banged his walking stick on the ground in order to get everyone's attention,
"Enough. As I am sure you are all aware the reason I have called all of you here because of the boy currently hanging onto Lieutenant Matsumoto's neck. It seems that Lieutenant Kusajishi found the boy on a door step in the world of the living on a routine patrol and after eliminating a Hollow, that tried to consume the child, she tried to hand the child to his last living relative, who then refused to take him in and so in an act of kindness she decide to try and care for the child in secret, until he was discovered by Captain Zaraki, and later by Captain Unohana who shall now continue."
"Thank you Captain-Comander," she said politely, "after finding the child under the care of the 11th Division I ran a medical scan of the child and found him to be in good condition. However there were a few anomalies which I looked into, not only does the he have naturally high spiritual power but it seems that he is also a wizard."
There was some muttering amongst some of the officers before Captain Hitsugaya voiced a question,
"Excuse me, but did you say wizard? I thought that they were just the stuff of fairy tales."
"I assure you that there are real, they're spiritually aware people capable of using abilities similar to kido, however they lack the raw power of it in some regards. Instead they have more versatility and their barriers, known as 'wards', are quite subtle compared to our own. They live in isolation and hiding from the other humans due to the persecution during the medieval and renaissance time frames. While the ability is usually a familial trait it can skip numerous generations. As a whole they're not much of a problem when compared to the Quincy, who almost threw the balance of life into chaos, wizards and witches have performed some dangerous experiments, such as splitting their souls via ritualistic murder to act as anchors in the world of the living, known as Horcruxes ..."
This surprised most of the younger officers present and even made Isane and Momo Hinamori, the 5th division lieutenant, pale slightly. Captain Kurotsuchi looked intrigued,
"... also they have been able to create a form of pseudo-hollow, known as a dementor, they are not as powerful as a regular hollow and are incapable of evolving in the menos class."
This information even more shocking to most of the officers, the thought that humans could actually create a form of hollow was disconcerting to say the least. Captain Kurotsuchi started looking at the boy holding onto Matsumoto with a calculating eye. Captain Hitsugaya was confused slightly,
"I don't understand, they seem even more dangerous than what the Quincy were, so how come they haven't had to be dealt with in the same mannar? Or even those 'Dementors'?"
"That's because most of them are just getting on with their lives, I don't doubt that most of them aren't even aware of Soul Society existence, however finding them is difficult due to their wards that seem capable of hiding them from both hollows and ourselves, I can only guess that the Dementors are hidden behind one of these wards."
"I see. Thank you for clarifying."
"As I was saying, should a wizard become a plus spirit they will lack a chain of fate thereby significantly reducing the chances of them becoming a Hollow."
Unohan pused for a moment in order to allow what she said to sink in before continueing,
"When I ran a scan on the boy I found that he had some soul residue, remarkably like a horcrux, centred around the scar on his forehead. If I had to guess I would say that someone tried to turn him into one. If we were able to remove the residue, it could be handed over to the Department of Research for study."
"Sounds good to me." Captain Kurotsuchi agreed
"And what of the boy Captain?" Yamamoto asked,
"I'm afraid that I'm am in no position to say, although he does seem to be doing surprisingly well with the 11th division."
"You could always hand him over to me." Kurotsuchi suggested, this almost immediately met objection from Kenpachi,
"Hell no you creepy bastard! Why the hell you all talking about what to do with the kid, he's doing fine where he is, so what's the problem?"
"The problem is that the boy is human and is not permitted to reside in the Soul Society, not until after his death at the very least." Yamamoto answered, "It would probably be best to return him to the world of the living and leave him in an orphanage as well as possibly erasing the memories he does have of soul society as a precautionary measure."
Several of the officers nodded their heads slightly in agreement, however Yachiru's eyes started to well up,
"Y...you're going to get rid of Harry?" Tears started to run down her face,
"It's the way it has to be Lieutenant Kusajishi." Yamamoto responded,
"B...but it's not fair, he's like my brother." She was now openly crying now, when a small voice was heard,
"Yachi?" the young child was looking concerned at the crying girl. Not getting a response he looked back and forth between Yachiru and the Captain-Commander before finally glaring, actually glaring, at Yamamoto,
"Basta."
Kenpachi chuckled while a few of the less mature officer contained their own. Byakuya Kuchiki, Captain of the 6th Division and Head of the Kuchiki Family, sighed before addressing Kenpachi with his usual stoicism,
"Honestly, even I find it hard to believe that you were able to corrupt the boy in such a short amount of time."
"What did you say?" Kenpachi growled
"I believe that I was clear in what I said." Byakuya retorted,
Before the argument could escalate there was a flaring of spiritual power, it wasn't all that large compared to the officers but the fact that it was coming from Harry was what surprised everyone, it wasn't much by their standards but the amount that he was flaring at his age was surprising to say the least, it was as much as mid-level academy student boarding on a senior's lever, feeling the spiritual power from her brother Yachiru began to calm down
"Baldie Basta." The boy said, and before any of them realised what happened a load crack resounded in the air and Harry was no longer in Matsumoto's arms, surprising everyone,
"What the hell was that?" Kenpachi asked
"You mean you don't know? Honestly how long have you had him Zaraki?" Byakuya asked
"Hey! He's never done anything like this before and more importantly where did he go?"
There was clattering of wood on stone that caught their attention, when they all looked back at the commander Renji Abarai, Vice-Captain of the 6th Division, and Matsumoto clasped their hands on their mouths to stop themselves bursting out laughing at the unusual sight, Kenpachi started grinning while Yachiru started to giggle at the sight, the others were town between surprise and amusement. Harry was gnawing on the Commander's head in a way that seemed very familiar to Kenpachi.
The Captain Commander had dropped his cane in order to use both his hands in order to try and remove the currently gnawing boy from his head without hurting him, the boy wasn't actually hurting him, it was just very annoying. Just as he was about to finally be rid of the pest, the boy suddenly disappeared followed by a loud crack. This time he was nowhere to be seen in the room.
"Where did he go this time?" the Commander asked,
"We don't know sir." Chōjirō Sasakibe, Lieutenant of the 1st Division answered,
"Then all of you find him and bring him back at once."
"Understood sir." The officers responded before leaving.
At first they thought that he might have been somewhere in the building, when they couldn't find him there they checked the wider and wider areas until eventually they were searching throughout the Seireitei.
Calmly making his way to back to the Research and Development centre Captain Kurotsuchi, followed by his Lieutenant – Nemu Kurotsuchi, and was contemplating the interesting specimen that seemed to have been dropped with his grasp. Like Captain Hitsugaya he had considered the like of Witches and Wizards to be the stuff of fairly tails yet now there was one for him to study, if was a blow to his pride to be informed about them by that insufferable Unohana but due to being one of the oldest Soul Reapers in the Gotei 13 she most likely had firsthand experience with them. He had decided to go to his lab to see if there was any unusual spiritual signal when the boy disappeared and if there were he would try to find a way to track them and thus the boy as well.
After ordering some of her men to look for the boy Soifon, the 2nd Division Captain Commander of the Onmitsukidō, Corp Commander of the Executive Militia and Head of the Fon Family, began to think about what the boy had just done. What the boy had done was not Shunpo, also known as Flash Steps, it was just impossible for a baby to actually know it. So that meant that it was something else, but what? Maybe it was an ability of those wizards, see even felt foolish just thinking it.
As she thought about the wizards as a whole she decided that she didn't have enough information about them to make an accurate decision, she decided that later on she would send some men on a recon mission to try and find any information about them, both in the archives and the world of the living.
Rushing their way back to their barracks Kenpachi and Yachiru burst through the entrance intent on getting as many of their men searching as possible, it was around the time that most of the men usually at lunch so they made their way to the mess hall, just as they were about to enter the door opened letting out Yumichika and Ikkaku, with the 3rd seat carrying a familiar sleeping figure.
"So this is where he got to, you can hand him to me Ikkaku." Said Kenpachi,
Handing to boy over to the captain, Ikkaku asked something that was on his mind,
"What the hell happened? One moment we were all eating, the next, the kid just suddenly appears and lands on the table. I checked him over and he doesn't seem hurt."
"We don't know what happened, hopefully if the Old-man lets the kid stay we can figure out what it was."
For the second time that day the captains had once again assembled in order to determine the fate of the boy,
"So where did you find the boy Captain Zaraki?" Yamamoto asked the imposing Captain
"The kid had somehow ended up in my men's Mess Hall, must have tired himself out, he's fast asleep right now."
"I suppose that will make it easier to take him back to the world of the living." Yamamoto commented, causing Kenpachi to frown,
"Old-man Yama, if might interrupt for a moment." Kyōraku said,
"What is it?"
"This kid he's got a ton of spiritual power right? So maybe it would be best for him to stay here and before you say anything, think about it. It's already been proven that hollows are attracted to his spiritual power, if we return him to the human world not only would we be putting the boy in danger, but the humans around him as well. Our duty is to protect humans from hollows and if we take the boy back to the world of the living we would be failing in that duty."
The officers considered his words with the majority of them visibly agreeing,
"I see Kyōraku, I'll admit that I had overlooked that matter. But should he stay in the Seireitei, who would be the one to take care of him?" The Commander Pondered,
Kyōraku smiled before speaking,
"Well I'm sure that the 4th Division could handle it, their duties are usually light so there should be plenty of people able to care for him, how about it Unohana feel up to it?"
"I suppo..." Unohana began only to interrupted,
"OH HELL NO!" Kenpachi roared, "There is no way in hell I am letting a kid with as much potential as him go to that bunch of pansies, I'd rather he went to little miss 'ittie bittie titties' squad, at least there he'd be able to kill something!"
"Care to repeat that Zaraki?" both women said in eerie unison, although Unohana had her ever-present serene smile and Soifon simply looked furious,
"Need me to repeat myself?"
Just as things were about to get out of hand between Kenpachi and Soifon, the Captain Commander banged his staff on the floor three times,
"I have made my decision about the boy's fate."
"He shall go to ..."
Author's section:
Aaaand cut!
Well that's the first entry for my "One Shots and Ideas – Harry Potter".
It should be obvious by now that this is a Crossover with Bleach. I can't help toying with idea of Harry being raised in the Seireitei due to the number of people he could possibly try to emulate, for example:
Soifon: Crazy assassin, that's obsessed of her old master (to what extent is debatable), maybe Harry could give her something to else to focus on.
Unohana: Skilled healer that takes no crap from nobody, not even from Kenpachi and is arguably the scariest captain of the Gotei 13. Seems like she could be one of the few remotely normal potential role models.
Mayuri Kurotsuchi: Freaky and Sadist Sociopath. The walking cliché of a mad scientist. Pity his enemies because he won't, he'll take his time until he's bored where he'll then put them out of their misery. Not someone you would consider a role model but consider this, what if he was doing it to show Harry's 'guardian' that he's the better Captain by making Harry more interested in his division (would probably work better with either Unohana or Kenpachi) and lure him away to do some tests on the boy.
Kenpachi Zaraki: Easily one of the most bad-arse characters of Bleach yet still seems to have some parenting skills as evidenced by Yachiru. Imagine the Wizarding world's horror if a Kenpachi raised Potter turns up, the cowards would piss themselves in terror. If Voldemort was to somehow incapacitate Harry (probably through trickery) and capture him, then picture the Zaraki Squad led by Kenpachi and a Pissed off Yachiru storming the Death Eaters' base.
Harry would probably be quite close Yachiru regardless of who he ended up with as a guardian (unless it was Aizen, Gin or Tossen) but would view her as a sister and/or best friend.
Of course Voldemort would be too weak to be the main villain. That spot would belong Aizen (the evil genius that he is). So he would probably only serve as a warm up villain at best.
Some of you may be wondering about Yachiru's (and later Harry's) language earlier on, the simple answer is that I don't see Kenpachi or the 11th holding back their language just because of a child's presence so it would be easy for her (and Harry) to pick it up.
If I find the time I may continue this as its own story but if someone want to have a try then just send me a PM for permission and send me link to it if I grant it.
