... Many of you guessed correctly on who it was... congrats ^^ Sorry if the end seems a bit rushed... really wanted to finally get this out... okay you can go on and read now ^^ Enjoy
"Sou-san Sou-san," a voice called. Aizen turned, just as the orange haired child latched onto his leg. Aizen had known the young prince a little less than a year and almost been forced to come to the palace every day after training so the prince could play with him. The brown haired man had finally graduated the training and was almost immediately given the job as the prince's personal guard. "I heard you are my guard now Sou-san," the prince chirped excitedly.
"You heard right, young prince," Aizen replied, ruffling the child's bright colored hair.
"Yay! Sou-san gets to stay with me a bunch," the child cheered. He reached his arms up, making Aizen roll his eyes and pick him up. The child wrapped his arms around Aizen's neck and smiled happily.
"… Why?" the child asked softly, staring out across the burning, destroyed village. He was about 5 or 6 now, tears flooding out of his eyes as he overlooked his kingdom.
"Some people are just evil like this young prince," Aizen stated softly.
"… I kind of wish we wouldn't have hid now," the child sniffed as he tried to keep from wailing at the murder of his people.
"Then we would be dead…" Aizen commented.
"They are all dead? Why should we be too?" the child snapped.
"What about your family?" the brown haired male asked.
"Probably dead too… right?" the child wiped his eyes.
"Maybe they are alive," Aizen tried to be positive.
"Will you carry me?" the prince asked. Aizen scooped him up, letting the child tug his head under his chin and cry. The brown haired guard flashstepped down to the palace which was in shams. "Mommy! Daddy!" the child called as he turned his head to look over his destroyed home.
Aizen walked the grounds, Ichigo looking around the ground nervously. They found Ichigo's family after a bit of exploring and the oranget wailed and cried harder. His twin little sisters, not even a year old yet were literally crushed, most likely using reaistu. They were dead, eyes wide with their fear and pain. The queen had a slit on her throat and burns all over her body. The king wasn't much better, actually burned more almost to charcoal. The young prince cried and wailed for his people, his family, his friends, his guards, his home, all that he had ever known was gone in a single night.
The only hope the prince had was his loyal guard, Aizen and the fact his older brother was missing from the piles of the dead. The prince vowed revenge on the Shinigami who destroyed everything. He vowed to rip the Soul Society from its roots and destroy it like his home was destroyed.
They moved to the Soul Society, beginning a plan to take revenge on them. Aizen was enrolled in the Shino Academy to become a Shinigami. The prince hid from the plain view. Those who saw him spoke of him like a fake ghost, an untrue legend. It's not like the child could do much anyway since he was still only a child, barely 7 years old. He learned of 2 important things during his sneaks around the Seireitei while Aizen was in the academy for only half of the 6 year education, knowing a good portion of what they were teaching already. The prince learned that most of the Soul Society didn't know of the murder of the royal family and the people of the royal dimension, only a few captains knew about it. The other thing was about who he hoped was his older brother.
Against Aizen's advice, the prince went to the 13th squad to see if the rumors were true. The rumors were about a raven haired teen that graduated the academy in 2 years and joined the 13th division. Hiding in the shadows, the young child observed the people, gasping when he found his target. "Kai-nii," he whispered, hope filling his heart.
The child had to wait till night fell to actually talk with his older brother. "Kai-nii!" he hissed, shaking the black haired male. Aqua green eyes blinked open and widen at the sight of the orange haired prince in the dark, amber eyes twinkling happily at the sight of his brother. "Ichigo…"
They went outside to talk and catch up. The conversation eventually fell to the Shinigami. "They killed our family, our people, and destroyed our home… how could you defend them!" Ichigo snarled.
"Only a few of them did that! Most of them are kind. So there are a few bad apples in the bunch, most of them are good and kind. I don't hold the whole race for what a few did!" Kaien snapped back.
"Their leader killed our parents! A corrupted leader will lead to corrupted people!" Ichigo yelled, trying not to cry that his brother was defending those monsters.
"Not always!" Kaien protested. Ichigo glared at his brother before turning to leave. Kaien frowned and watched his brother disappear into the shadows. It would be the last time Kaien ever saw him but not the last for Ichigo.
Aizen sat, watching the albino and prince play. They were on the outskirts of the Rukongai. Shiro had just been born last night and the pair were now playing, something good for them since they were only children. Ichigo was also trying to teach Shiro to speak though the only thing Shiro learned was 'Ichigo' and 'mine' which he repeated quite a lot every time he saw Aizen looking at them. Aizen sighed, watching them for a bit longer as Ichigo taught Shiro hide & seek. "Ichigo… Shiro… I have to go now… my classes start soon," the brown haired male called.
"Okay Sou-san," Ichigo nodded. The pair watched Aizen leave. "Ichigo?" the oranget looked at his other half. "Mine?" the albino asked, staring at him with innocent eyes and arms open for a hug.
Ichigo smiled. "Yeah, yours," he nodded, hugging the albino.
After Aizen finally got out of school, he went to pick up Ichigo and Shiro. He arrived where he left them and they were plain gone. "Ichigo?" he called. The brown haired male was surprised when he was thrown to the ground, a bright red light right in front of his eyes, just held there.
"Shiro! Down, it's just Aizen," a voice called. The red light receded and the brown haired male could see it was Shiro on top of him holding him down. The albino hopped off of his chest, quickly going to Ichigo's side, purring as he hugged the prince. Ichigo smiled sheepishly at Aizen. "Sorry about that… but isn't it cool that he can do all of that!" he chirped.
"A bit," Aizen nodded. Ichigo smiled at Aizen.
Urahara couldn't help but feel like someone or something was watching him. But every time he looked there was nothing there. It was unnerving and odd. The blonde sighed as he continued to walk through the Seireitei, back towards his home. He stopped again and whipped around, catching sight of something white. He walked back to where the white flash had disappeared to.
He stared at the child, pure white skin and hair but eerie Hollow-like golden orbs surrounded by a sea of blackness. He wanted to say the child was an orphan but his red kimono was too nice and clean for that. "Why are you following me?" the blonde asked softly so he didn't scare the child.
The child stared at him, silent. "Ummm are you hungry?" the blonde tried again. The child shook his head. "Well why are you following me?" the blonde asked. The child scowled at him, crossing his arms. Then he turned and flashed away. The blonde didn't know what to say. He wondered if there was really a child ever.
Urahara couldn't help but notice the shadows that followed the newest captain, Aizen of the 5th squad. He didn't try to notice it but it was odd to see two shadows, seeming almost twins following the brown haired captain. Urahara was the 3rd seat of 2nd division so he was pretty sure that Aizen didn't have a bounty on his head or really any enemies in general, Aizen was a very friendly captain if too friendly and kind. So the blonde decided to follow the captain around to see if there was anything to worry about, and to sate his curiosity.
He had to follow the captain all day before he finally learned the brown haired man's secret. The blonde had stealthily followed him into his room where he finally saw the shadows. One was the albino child from before while the other was a colored copy with orange hair and amber eyes. "Sou-san! How can you keep smiling like that… doesn't it hurt?" the orange haired child asked innocently.
"It's fine Ichigo… I don't know why you and Shiro were following… I thought you guys were training and such while I was here doing my captain things?" Aizen asked.
"We need to learn more about the Shinigami too though… we are plenty strong right now! We could take on anyone captain in the Soul Society right now," the child stated proudly.
"Maybe… though I kind of doubt it," Aizen chuckled.
"Ichigo s-st-strong!" Shiro cried out. Ichigo blinked before smiling and hugging his counterpart. "Shiro is too," he cooed as the albino hugged back tightly. The blonde watched for a while long as the trio talked before going to sleep. Urahara was still curious but satisfied for the time.
After a while, Urahara finally introduced himself to the trio and was accepted into their plot after a bit of testing his trustworthiness. They also recruited the soon to be Vizards who accepted the experiment to serve the young Prince and his cause against the unfair Shinigami. They still were willing to serve him despite how wrong the whole thing went. Urahara left with them to live in the town he was creating. The town they would use instead of actually destroying real human towns.
The blonde being a genius made the town pretty easily but had a bit more trouble creating fake souls and gigai to make the town seem like a real town. Ichigo and Shiro spent a lot of time in the town, helping out while Aizen started his part of plan to play a villain. Ichigo would be their savior before betraying them later, a perfect plan.
After Aizen was all ready and the town was perfect, filled with souls. Ichigo was pressed in a baby gigai, memories suppressed of all of his past life. He was given to a pair of souls similar to his real parents in looks and personality. Ichigo grew up with a few pairs of hands guiding and molding him to perfection. All according to plan, Ichigo tricked the Soul Society and was now ready to purify the home of the beings that ruined him and his world so long ago.
...Yay? xD
Lots of random little memories... in order
Sorry I didn't get this out sooner... schoolwork, my annoying brain (in some cases), and my panic of not fitting in everything I wanted... sorry the last part is kind of rushed and not detailed... wanted to write them out but then it would have probably been another week or so ^^; So I rushed the ending a bit
Next chapter will probably be the reactions to Ichigo... maybe a bit of fighting... at the moment I'm predicting 2-3 chapters... maybe a bit more if I go crazy with the fighting xD
Anyway hope you enjoyed and review, thanks ^^
