17 years in the future...
...
Soul society...
It changed after the war. Many of the common people of the closer districts to Seireitei moved as far as they could from the soul reapers, as to 'avoid corruption' as they said.
That only left these districts, as 'ghost towns' as one would put it. Very few stayed behind for various reasons.
It's been this way for nearly 17 years.
They lost most of their trust in soul reapers, hardly anyone considered becoming a shinigami nowadays. Only on rare occasions, like that which happened two years ago today, the thirteenth day of the sixth month, have any of the souls or select humans ever considered becoming associated with shinigami ever again.
These 6 are considered the next great heroes of both worlds... past and future... though they dont know it yet.
...
Main Gate entrance to Seireitei...
...
"Hey, ...Jidanbō, can you open the gate for us?" The giant looked to the boy who spoke, the squad leader, and nodded his approval. He's know these bunch of kids since they were little.
The young man reminded him so much of the boy's father, not only in his looks, but also in spirit, the only difference, was his hair color. He litteraly is the reincarnation of Kaien Shiba, but takes after Ichigo, his father, to much for anyones liking. He's also the leader of his small academy squad as well as the Zanjutsu (swordsmanship) specialist.
The boy's twin sister, she was a different story. Sure she and her brother share traits, their eyes, brown, their fathers' spirit, and even some personality from each other, but she was altogether different. She had brown hair, her brother and mother had black hair, and heck, her father had orange hair. The only things she shared with her family were, the eyes, her fathers' spirit, and her mothers flair, if one wasn't careful they could mistake her for someone not related to the Kurosaki's. She is the 3rd-in-command as well as Kidō expert.
Kino, he is a surprising one. He is the eldest of the group, 17 and years old. He shares many traits with his parents. He has cappuccino skin, dark blond hair, and dark blue eyes. In a sense he is the incarnation of both his parents all down to one or two minor differences'. His fathers humor, looks, hair, imagination, and cunning, along with his mothers skin tone, style, and compassion. A very well mannered young man, though he does crack jokes from time to time, compared to his father and others his age. He is back-up, also the Hakuda (hand-to-hand) specialist.
The next young man, I'll give you one hint. Abarai. Courageous, daring, and ignorant. Just like his father in alot of ways, as well as his mother. He's a noble. Yet he is an idiotic teen who wishes to someday take over the family tradition of becoming captain of the 6th squad, just to flaunt it in his father's face, it truly shows whose son he is. He is 2nd in command as well as Hohō (agility) specialist.
Dominic, the only child of the group. He prefers to be called a man, though he is actually 10 years old. He is the most unique of the group, being the most mature and level-headed. His appearance is also unique, white hair with natural black tips, and brown eyes. He is the exception of the group, he doesn't look much like either of his parents instead of one or the other, much like his cousin Anarune. He is also very sarcastic, always serious, and is a natural leader much like Kaien, though he let his cousin become leader out of respect. He is the groups strategist.
Last but not least, is Tomi-ichi, The groups medic and the third to last Quincy, once again lending help to soul society, if only for Anarune and Kaien's sake. Yes, he is an Ishida, the son of Uryuu. He has his fathers hair, his mothers eyes, and both of their personalities, and yes, he is just like his mom when she was his age, always spacing out, and daydreaming crazy stuff.
"Hey, Kaien, how is your mother and father these days?" The giant spoke as he lifted the gate for them to enter Seireitei. "They're doing good, mom had the baby last month, his names' Hayden." Kaien answered amusedly. Jidanbō was a baby fanatic, he had never really seen one before till he saw little Kaien and Anarune when Ichigo brought them to Soul Society after they were born, as well as Kaien's two younger siblings, Chiaki and Horiki, or Kiki and Riki for short.
"Oh, really, when can I see him? Can you bring him along next time you come through?" he asked excitedly. "Sure, I'll check with mom when me and Ana head home, see ya later." replied Kaien as his group went through the gate.
...
1st division headquarters,
meeting room
...
Kaien's squad walks forward and stops behind the 1st division Captain.
"Captain Shigekuni, we defeated the low-class group of hollows outside of Karakura town." said Kaien bowing. "Thank you young Kaien and friends, we are greatful for you service,"replied the captain facing forward, "You academy graduation is tonight is it not?"
"Sir, yes, we all graduate tonight, excluding Tomi-ichi." Captain Shigekuni Yamamoto-Genryūsai, of the first division, then turned to look at each of them. "My congratulations to all of you." He then dismissed them. Before Kaien could step out the door, the captain called out, "Wait a minute young Kaien, if I could speak to you alone for a moment." Kaien told the others to head to the gate back to Karakura and wait for him.
"Yes, sir?" he asked as he walked up. He was curious, normally the captain would speak to he and his group, for whatever was to be said, this was a first. "Have you heard of the 12th division?" Yep, this was definitely odd. "Yes sir, I have."
"And, are you aware of what this division does?" Kaien nodded. After receiving his answer the captain turned and motioned for Kaien to follow him. "Very good, you should understand this better then."
Now, Kaien was really confused. "Sir, what do you mean?" The captain motioned for him to sit, so he did. "As you know Division 12 conducts experiments to try to improve our society, this is half the reason I am telling you this." 'Half the reason?' thought Kaien confused and intrigued. "Sir, what does Division 12 have to do with me?"
"Quite a lot, i'm afraid. Your friends too." Sighed the Captain. Kaien could now see how weary he was, he started to look his age now. "Sir, explain please."
"Very well, Division 12 was working on a project to try to open another gate to the human world..." Sighed Captain Shigekuni Yamamoto-Genryūsai. "What's so bad about that?" wondered Kaien. The Captain laughed. "Nothing at all," his expression changed back to weariness, "only the new gate opened a rip in time instead, altering the timeline." Kaien now understood why he was weary, but still not what it had to do with him and his friends. "Sir, what does it have to do with me and the others?" The captain smiled, 'he is just like his mother when she was in the academy, always the sharp one...' his smile faltered 'the timelines already changing.' "The rip has opened up several times already, throughout Karakura, and has made major changes in history already." Kaien realized the captain was holding back the answer to his question, but why?
"That helps me understand some of what your telling me, but what about my question?" The captain sighed, there was no more reason to keep the answer back. "The reason this has so much to do with you and you friends, is because this rip has already alter you, your friends, and your parents past already." Kaien was speechless, he didn't know what to say, he felt it and knew the captain was right. Something had to be done. The captain beat him to it.
"I have authorized permission for you and your friends to enter the rip, go back to the past, and fix what you can of the damage that has been done, that is if you are up to it? I can send a more qualified squad to go and fix the damage if not..."
"Wait! I will take the mission, when do me and my friends leave?" Kaien asked, thoroughly confused, in awe, and terrified. "tomorrow morning if you so wish, bring the others tonight, after your graduation, and I will tell them of the news." the captain knew he would take the mission, he knew no one better. Another plus, no one would know them when they go back to the past, a definite advantage, or so he hopes. "How long will it last?" Kaien said. "Until when you think it is best finished." The captain replied, knowing it would last more than a few months.
"Thank you captain." bowed Kaien ask he stood to leave. The captain murmered "Good luck..." as he left.
Turning around in his chair, he sighed, sending a message to summon all Ichigo and all. He just hoped that he could give the news to their parents without many probles...
...
Gate to Karakura
...
The remainder of the group stood at the gate, waiting. "Oh come on! He's been gone for an hour," whined Taiki, as he looked at his watch, "Crap! I'm late for Halie's play! Mom is SO gonna kill me!" he cried as he crawled to a corner in the street and anime cried.
Everyone laughed at Taiki's antics, he always does this when he was late for something his mom makes him go to.
Kino looked up, and spotted Kaien walking their way. "Hey, Kaien, what took you so long?" then he spotted that Kaien was troubled. "What's up?" asked Kino loud enough for the others to hear. They all came over to Kaien, wondering whats wrong.
Kaien looked up and saw them all gathered around him with worried expressions on their faces. "Captain Shigekuni wants to meet with us after graduation, were going on a new mission." He said going from a whisper, to his normal voice. He was drained from learning all of the info, and the thought of going into the past, seeing ones own parents when they were your own age.
They thought it unusual for them to go straight to the captains office straight after graduation was over with, but dropped the subject none the less. So they parted ways saying their good-byes, heading to their own homes in Karakura.
