Spirit- Wow... I've been MIA from here for a LONG time haven't I?

Tenshi- This really does brig back fond memories.

Spirit- Well my lovelies, I have written another story for you all. I know I have tons I have yet to finish and I do promise to work on one of those in-particular.

Tenshi- "Destroying Death" is going to be re-written and released within the coming months. Spirit had wanted to finish it, but when she went back to reread it she felt like strangling herself.

Spirit- Basically I couldn't continue it with the way it is. I know it shows my growth as an author, but... It's beginning is just really bad. So I'll be taking it down soon, re-write it (plot will generally remain the same) and then re-post it. For now, you all may have this lovely little work I've created. Pairings so far are not written in stone. I may change them, I may not. It's still to early in the fic to tell.

Tenshi- She'll be updating every other week or so too. That gives her time to write more.

Spirit- and hopefully work out all the kinks. It's going to follow the Bleach arrancar timeline for awhile, but then it will definitely change to where I want to take it. Hope you all enjoy!

P.S.- if you are unfamiliar with my work and have no idea who Tenshi is, he is a character I created that is Hotaru's long lost twin brother who is the Grim Reaper. I have a crappy fic(it's old and when I was still a n00b) about him called "Tenshi No Kurayami" I believe. You may read that if you are still confused.

Pairings:

Hotaru/Grimmjow

Makoto/Shinji

Tenshi/Hiyori(hint only)

Ichigo/Orihime

Renji/Rukia(hint only)

Other senshi will also be paired, but I'm still working on those. If you have suggestions please leave them in a review.

Prologue

Rain pelted the ground as a figure limped through the park late at night. Walking into the light of a lamp along the path that cut the park in half, the person slumped against it. It was a young girl. She wore a skintight one-piece outfit with a mini-skirt and sailor collar. Both skirt and collar were a dark purple and tattered. A large maroon bow was placed at her chest and back as a long staff with a G shaped blade at the top was in her right hand. Her short black hair swept into her face, hiding violet eyes.

The girl clutched her stomach with one hand while dragging her weapon with the other. Her breathing was rigid and her vision was blurry. Blood seeped through her fingers as the wound in her side refused to clot just yet. She winced when she pulled her hand away to get a better look at it. Her legs were numb. She could barely keep herself standing. Using the glaive, she managed to turn herself around and slide down the lamp post until she was sitting on the ground. Violet eyers gazed up at the dark clouded sky. The rain drops hit her pale skin and slide down her face. Millions of thoughts raced through her mind at that moment. The biggest one being: Was she going to die here alone?

Footsteps and a cackle made her look to her left. Out of the darkness of the path came a tall blue haired man. A sword was clutched in one hand, the blade resting on his shoulder casually, while the other hand was in the pocket of his white pants. He wore a white jacket that was open, revealing a muscular chest that had a hole in the abdomen with the sleeves were rolled up to his elbows. Along his right cheek was a jaw bone. The girl's eyes narrowed at his smug grin as he approached her. When he was no more then twelve feet away he stopped, and looked down at her. The girl gripped her glaive, preparing just in case he attacked. His grin grew when he noticed this.

"Still planning on fighting me senshi?" he jeered.

The girl growled. "What do you want here? And what are you?"

"Che! Why would I tell a senshi?" he asked, tapping his sword on his shoulder. The girls eyes surveyed him. He had a few minor cuts and scraps on him, unfortunately nothing serious. If it weren't for the large gash in her side he had inflicted on her earlier, she would be in the same state. That one blow had done her in however.

"You came to this town and targeted me. Others can't see you nor hear you. You also have a very large and strange aura." she remarked.

"That's called spirit pressure. And the reason I targeted you was because you could sense it and had the highest concentration yourself." he explained.

The violet eyed girl used her glaive to drag herself back up. "I see... you're just looking for a fight."

"Pretty good. I was hoping you would be a little more fun than this though." He said, watching her pick herself up with a smirk.

"Sorry I disappointed you. Today wasn't exactly a great day to fight me however... but maybe he can relieve your boredom."

The man's eyes grew wide as he whirled around and just barely blocked an attack from a scythe. A hooded figure with skeletal hands had flown out of no where and had almost cut his head off. Said figure moved back only to attack again with more force. The man dodged it and flew higher up into the air. The dark clad figure didn't follow, instead it stood protectively in front of the violet eyed girl. It made no move otherwise. The blue haired man scoffed at the two. He had not sensed the other one approaching nor did he even sense his power now. The figure looked like the western version of a god of death, a grim reaper.

"Che! I think I'm done playing for today. I'll be back to finish you off some other time senshi." He said as a black void opened up behind him.

The girl gave a weak grin "I look forward to it." At that the man gave a last smirk to them and the void closed after he stepped backwards into it.

The Grim Reaper turned and removed his hood, revealing a young boy with tall spiky black hair and matching violet eyes. The hair at the nape of his neck was kept in a small ponytail that went down to his shoulder blades. His skeletal hands were now covered in muscle and flesh, normal living hands. His violet eyes looked towards the wounded warrior.

"You alright Hotaru?" He asked.

Hotaru nodded. "I'm fine Tenshi. He missed anything vital. He wouldn't have hit me if I hadn't taken care of those youma earlier today... at least I hope not."

"Youma and now this guy." Tenshi groaned while scratching the back of his head. "I'm sorry I was late. Setsuna-mama kept me. She knows who... well... rather what that guy was."

Hotaru looked at the boy questionably. "What is he?"

"He's called an Arrancar."
