Souls through the Vail

when Harry takes the hit for Sirius and falls through the Vail, he wakes up in the Soul Society 120 years in the past without any memory's but his own name. Before long, his saving people thing kicks in and he joins the Thirteen Court Guard Squads. This is the story of his adventures.

All right, this idea will mostly take place in the Bleach world to begin with, but will return to the HP world after I get to the Winter War. Keep in mind that it is an AU and this first chapter is very short, just meant to set the scene. Harry is from Rukia and Renjis generation and was in the academy with them. Give me ideas for his Zanpakuto and what squad he should be in, as well as rank. I am leaning towards him replacing the fat bastard as the Lieutenant of squad 2. I do not own HP or Bleach. I think mom's got some in the cupboard though.

Prologue

The boy opened his eyes, wincing at the bright light that assaulted his retainers. He sat up slowly and looked around, finding himself on a pallet. He clasped his head in his hands and tried to remember what happened. The only thing he could remember was a flash of red light and a name. Harry Potter. Was it his? It felt right.

At that moment, the door opened and a beautiful red-head entered the room. Her hair fell to her shoulders, framing her kind face and startling green eyes. She was dressed in a pink Kimono with a large, red phoenix splashed across it.

"Ah good, your awake," she said, "My name is Lily Evens, do you know yours?"

"Harry Potter," said Harry, shaking his head to clear it of the minor twinge that accompanied the woman's name, "Where am I?"

"You're in Junrinan, west Rukongai district one in the Soul Society," said Lily, "In other words, your dead."
Harry stared at her for a second before his eyes rolled back into his head and he collapsed.

"To blunt dear," said a voice as a black haired man entered the room. His hair was messy and his hazel eyes were hidden behind a pair of round glasses. He was dressed in a rough tunic and pants that, whilst rough, made of fairly good quality material.

"Aw, but it's fun to see the new kids on the block faint when they hear their dead," wined Lily, making her companion sweatdrop.

It had been a year since Harry had come to the Soul Society and life was good. He had met Lily's husband, James after he had recovered from hearing he was dead and the two men got on famously. In spite of this, the boy was restless. Whenever news would come in of Hollow attacks on the outer districts, he would always feel like he should have done something. All of this came to a head when Harry witnessed an attack from Hollows in person and was unable to help. That night, he made a decision.

"I will become a Soul Reaper."

thats all for now. The next chapter will be a LOT longer and will start during the Invasion arc. Give me sergestions for his Zanpakuto and who I should pare him up with.
