章 1: The end and the beginning
His senses faded in and out , As the blindfold over his face allowed him to see naught but darkness .
His ears , Heard nothing but the ringing in his ears as he was accompanied by nothing but his thoughts.
Suspended by a pillar , Wrapped and bound by forty two seals that ate at his reitsu continuously for eighteen thousand years.
Even then he was calm , Breathing in ... thinking ... breathing out... contemplating .
' I'm alone ... ' Aizen thought , Not for the first time , For over five thousand years ago the last soul to appear in the realm of the soul society faded and left all together.
And not once since then had he picked up on anything , No souls , No plus souls ... no hollows . Even that blasted existence up above the three realms simply faded into oblivion ... and here he rested , Calm ... and composed .
A twitch came to his face under the black seal that covered his face , Both with a smirk of victory and a frown of something akin to sadness .
' It appears I am the victor Kyoraku ' Aizen thought with a serene sense of mirth ' For I was right all along '
And as the final minutes of his imprisonment approached , Aizens muscles , Not used for millennia, Began to twitch.
His reitsu , Having done nothing but grow in size and density over the last eighteen thousand years soared through the realms , Limitless in its reach , And he felt nothing .
' So this is what they called ... a hollow victory ' Aizen thought ... he had thought that experiment he had made so long ago , What was its name ... ichigo , Could potentially be here to greet him. But no ... ichigo wouldn't be ... couldn't be .. he too had passed on many .. many thousands of years ago and not reincarnated since his power was too strong and would upset the balance .
As the final seconds ticked down , Aizen allowed his lips to form a small but subtle smile .
With the final seconds striking, It all happened ... the binds Constricting him to the pillar at the centre of his cell in muken slackened , Sliding off with a great grating noise that was sensitive to the ears , Pooling at the base of the pillar .
With a deep breath , Aizen allowed his eyes to register the sight of darkness that encapsulated him as the blindfold on his face fell away.
Gently landing on the ground , His black coloured boots tapped lightly on the concrete below .
" To talk once more " His voice horse and dry , Cracked as it echoed throughout the chamber " A simple commodity "
" Let us see what has become of the would beyond " A flex of his reitsu blasted out from his body, The tattered remants of his captains haori blew violently as a pulse escaped him , Spreading out as it slammed into the walls of his cell in the distance.
....
SOUL SOCIETY
....
" hm...hmhm " he allowed a small chuckle as he stepped into the remants of the seretei. Old and dilapidated, Not a sound could be heard as the skies were stuck in a perpetual state of night and day . The three realms had long since merged together once again since noone could become the linchpin.
" And yet " Aizen leapt up , Soaring high into the skies towards the apex where the soul king once resided . Eventually coming to the place where it once stood , Now gone... missing.
" It is I alone ... who stands at the apex " Aizen chuckled , Spreading his hands wife as he looked over what was now his ... and he felt nothing.
" What is the point of ruling ... if there is nobody to enjoy my paradise " Aizen allowed his hands to fall to the side " It is indeed a hollow victory "
" It was a failing system " That was the problem with the reincarnation cycle , It didn't actually fix the problem , The reason it was created .
It was once created due to hells expanding over the three realms . Eventually to consume them all due to the instability of everything.
And thus the six clans used the soul king as a linchpin to halt its expanse. But the way they went about it fixed nothing.
When someone sins , They get sent to hell , And banished form the cycle . If they don't sin they get reincarnated ... and then in the next cycle... they live .. they die ... reincarnated until they sin , They go to hell . And with a finite amount of souls ... you have a problem... at the end... everyone to ever live will eventually end up in hell , It just depends on how long it takes . Hell wins . And with the reitsu of each soul being sent to hell , The process of hells expansion grows quicker .
Until now ...
" Where nothing remains ... but I... the god with nothing to rule " Aizen frowned and chewed his lip .
Infact , The only thing that stood between the world and hell and the ultimate failure of ichibe and the six clans , Was aizen himself ... the final untaken soul .
" It unfortunately... won't be getting it "
You see there wasn't no hope , not for aizen anyway. Always calculating .. always thing. And he had long since come up with a plan .
With the three realms of the world of the living , hueco Mundo and hell merged with the society . Where would the gates of hell lead , Where would a garganta go ... what could they possibly lead to other than oblivion ... they were essentially tears in the world , Built to transverse fissures in time and space to move between the realms .
But now... they were nothing but fissures in the fabric of reality .
Using his hollow based abilities , Aizen forced a garganta open before him , It's simplicity as a simple black void ate at the light around it .
And with one last look , A moment to revel in his ultimate and unquestioned victory, Aizen stepped into the garganta , with it folding in and vanishing the next moment .
And with the final remaining soul, The last soul keeping the realms from breaking ,leaving .
Hell devoured all that remained , Causing the realms to quake as they folded in on themselves , Devoured and consumed by the destruction that was hell .
And when that was done , Hell folded in on itself with nothing to devour , It turned amd ate itself , Tearing the infinite plane of existence apart , Levai g nothing as the universe ceased to exist.
The four realms , Were gone .
...
For a hundred days and a hundred nights , Aizen simply fell into oblivion , Simply keeping count by reciting numbers in his head .
" 86399999" As the hundredth day passed , Aizen felt the shift in the void , Encapsulated by a shell of his reitsu , Aizen felt the hyogyoku in his chest twitch according to his will , Feeling it reach out into the expanse below , a ripple of the void shook the darkness around .
" You're still awake huh " A twitch responded to his voice as a slit of white opened up below , As he slipped through it a moment later and fell into his new life.
...
1984 - Russia - July 20th
...
' It appears I need to reign in my reitsu ' Aizen surmised , unconcerned about the massive crater around him , Created by his simply stepping , Appearing in the middle of a city of which he didn't care to know .
Buildings Crumbled around him , Screams echoed all around only to fade as their bodies were turned to dust , Pavement cracked and blew away from him , Creating an ever expanding dome of energy that threatened to co some everything in its oath unending until it co sumed the world .
" There " He pulled his reitsu in until it was a near impenetrable barrier ten centimetres around his body in all directions, It would allow for him to enjoy this world to the fullest but keep the ants from touching him .
As the tower of soyembika in the distance fell onto the ground amidst the screams and chaos , Aizen looked around in thought.
' Hm ... there's no reitsu in the air ... no worries ' He turned and began to step through the flattened dome that was the expanse , The crater formed from his reitsu .
His black outfit billowed in their air as he escaped the scene long before anyone who could potentially hunt him arrived , Stepping into the wilderness , Wading through snow without care for the cold .
' What is it ' He reached for the energy In the air as he continued to walk , Noting it simply passing through his fingers , Like it wasn't his to touch , Which made his eyebrows twitch in agitation for but a moment .
' Something to study at a later date ' Aizen thought as he began to make his way arpund the perimeter of the city , Intent on entering through the opposite side fo the city compared towards his ... creation .
' Why use flash step when I have all the time in the world ' unconcerned he continued on , Stepping into the shrubs as they moved away , Craping against his reitsu barrier , Leaving him entirely untouched and unbuffered.
...
" Interesting " Aizen stood far off in the distance , Having already come through the forest of kazan and entered via the opposite side of the city .
Aizen regarded the crews and unknown persons rushing throughout the crater he had accidentally created apon his arrival .
" They don't appear to be the regular law enforcement " Aizen mused , Now wearing a fur coat and thick leggings to blend in , Covering his face with a scarf , Whilst he stood by a lamp post .
" Hm ...hmhm " He chuckled to himself casually , Turning away from the light and stepping into the darkness around him , Still fascinated by the energy permeating the air around his body .
" Its grown in concentration " It was akin to a thick mist before him , Now far thicker than before " It started thickening minutes after my arrival , Quickly growing in inte city and expanding ... but it's lingered around ... what is it "
' Still cannot connect with it ' He shrugged , Further Condensing the shroud of reitsu around him , Making it no more than three centimetres over the surface of his body .
' But now ... let's ... find out just where we are 'A man approached , Rushing by only for aizen to step into the way of the man's path , Capitalising on the chance , Aizen fell to the ground , Grunting as he fell to the ground .
Biting down on his tongue , Blood ran down his lip just as the man turned around , Acting as if he had been hurt by falling ti the ground .
" ты в порядке " The blonde man reached down and picked aizen up by the shoulders , Aizen fully retracting the reitsu shield to allow him to do so .
' Ah .. Russian ' Aizen grunted in thought, Slouching slightly and holding his lip as the man profusely apologised.
" I'm so sorry my friend let me help you up " Direct as usual just as the rest of the language was , aizen refamiliarised himself with the language .
" Ah ... No worries friend ... " Aizen responded , Testing his tongue before subtly cringing at the off accent . Stumbling slightly , Aizen acted as if there was something wrong with him " I ... "
He stumbled again and fell , Grunting and leaning on the wall . Before letting his fingers slip and slamming into the ground .
He restrained the smile that came to his face as the man rushed over , The man mumbling and calling for aid .
' Hn ...I see ' He came to several hypothesis at the man's actions , Calling out as people rushed down the snow covered road at the man's yells .
And several more were proven as people ran off instead of reaching for any kind of telecommunication devices .
' Good ... ' Aizen smirked subtly before allowing it to fall , Plans coming into motion , As he was hosted from the ground and rushed towards a hospital .
....
' From my observations I should he within the eighties if I am indeed on earth and timelines remained the same ' Aizen thought as he lay in a hospital bed , A thorough use of absolute hypnosis allowing for any bills to be wavered as he simply sat in bed and read from a book in thought.
He was currently reading a book on the world's history in Russian, Raising an eyebrow at the inconsistencies clearly displayed .
' Until a round a hundred years ago the world history remains complete if not a direct replica of my home origins timeline ... for the living world that is ' He thought as he flipped through to the next pages.
' There is no soul society as far as I can tell ... ' Indeed after observing the effects his reitsu had on the environment, no sort of supernatural presence appeared , Leading him to the conclusion that things such as a policing force for the afterlife didn't exist .
' Which leads to the question ... what are these devils I am reading about ... what are their origins ' He read the first recorded meeting of a devil and the supposed origins of the creatures ' So they're a type of thought form conceded from human fears ... interesting '
He paused for a moment ' Is the energy permeating the air actual human emotion '
' A plausible theory ' His eyes strayed back to the book , Lingering on the words where it stated the discovery that devils were born from human fears ' But why only fear , Could there be other existences born from other emotions, What makes devils so special ... what makes fear so unique ... '
' What about the other emotions , If this is emotion lingering in the atmosphere, Then it appears only fear is subtracted and taken , Harnessed by the devils ... the rest such as joy ... anger ... and others are simply left as an unused source of energy or power ... , Interesting ' His eyes refouccsed back on the pages as he continued reading , And before long he found another inconsistency ...
" There is something missing from here ... where is world war two ... no nuclear weapons ... what happened here " He thought deeply , Humming as a nurse came into his room and with a burst of kyoka suigetsus energy , the woman wearing scrubs immediately beginning to perform a blood test she thought she was doing. But in reality she was simply moving her hands through the air like a mime .
His reading continued up until the year before , Where he closed the book and began to recollect his thoughts .
' I'll have to further test this. .. but for now ' Aizen turned his gaze to the. Curse and manipulated the illusion ' It wouldn't do not to have an existing record ... '
" It appears I cannot find your file ... please allow me a few moments " ' Good ' Aizen thought as the woman walked out of the room .
...
' Interesting ' Aizen read through the world news through another book and several news papers he had procured , reading through the news about the random appearances of devils , World politics , Conspiracy theories and several other events ' The USSR is still in power , A dynamic shift in world history ... a very clear counterpart to my own ... '
With the door opening alerting him , His brown eyes turned to face the nurse who appeared with several documents on person .
" I'm sorry that took so long ... here are the documents " The previous nurse placed the documents he had the woman unknowingly forge , with her placing them down on the table at his side .
' Too trusting ... she didn't even question why ... what with today's level of technological development I don't think it would be unbelievable for someone to be unregistered and appear on the grid at a later time 'Aizen smiled kindly as the woman began to study the various instruments hooked up to him , Slowly removing the sticky pads that were used to hook up the measuring equipment.
" It seems you're in good health and you're permitted to leave at your leisure... since there was nobody we could call to pick you up we were forced to contact the man whom brought you here ... petrixov nicholai has agreed to house you for the meantime " Aizen listened , Committing the name to the face of the blonde man whom he had ticked into bringing him to the hospital .
" I thank you ... your assistance has been more than adequate " Aizen closed the papers as nicholai appeared in the doorway , Seemingly unsure of how to approach aizen .
" Here is your birth certificate and registration documents ... " The nurse gently handed him the papers housed in a folder for safe keeping .
" Thank you dear " Aizen swung his legs off the bed " I apologise for the inconvenience nicholai "
With aizens words , Nicholai smiled and approached,appreciating the easy route of conversation as he approached and extended his hand .
" It is I whom should apologise friend aizen " Nicholai shook aizens hand , The two regarding eachother as she nurse made herself scarce , Her job complete .
" No need my friend , An honest mistake , Of which without ... I fear I wouldn't be here " The two turned and departed the room , Aizen holding the folder under the crook of his arm .
A couple inches taller than nicholai himself , the blonde Russian looked up into aizens eyes , Laughing about one of the man's casual jokes as they entered the elevator to the lobby .
" A room has been provided for you to reside in for the meantime , However i must warn you of my dear Yolanda ... she is ... strong willed " nicholai warned of his dear wife , Wincing slightly , Afterall she had been vehemently opposed to having the unknown man stay with them , especially since he would be in their house around their children .
She seemed weary of the prospect , Like any good mother , But from what he had seen , Aizen was a good , Just and friendly man from their interactions .
" Thank you , I'll be sure not to step on anyone's toes... you'll barely notice my presence , But I'll be sure to work quickly to get out of everyone's hair " aizen proposed , With nicholai shaking his head as they stepped out of the elevator , walking through the lobby towards the entrance.
" Nonsense, take as long as you need " Their conversation continued on all the way to the car , With nicholai driving around lazan to show him the various interesting point of the city .
It wasn't an our later they were driving towards the Cobetcknñ district of which his humble abode resided , though their drive was delayed due to the massive work crews where they were learning the rubble where aizen first appeared in the world .
" Here we are " The warn , Beat up car nicholai drove chugged to a stop infront of a brightly coloured , red and green two storey house " It doesn't look like much but it's our little slice of peace "
Opening the door , nicholai stepped out of the car , With aizen following soon after , Holding the folder in his left hand as he circled the car and walked with nicholai towards the front door .
" It looks nice... pleasant even " Aizen soothed nicholai , The man preening under aizens words .
" Well come on in " Nicholai motioned to the front door , The two walking through the small well kept garden before them , Where nicholai rapped his knuckles on the door before opening it slowly, A chime echoing throughout the building.
" We're back " Nicholai was stopped by two small rockets slamming into his mid section , Two children looking up at him with wide expression filled eyes .
" Papa "" two voices cried out together as they looked up to their dad.
" Hey Dimitri, Irina ... " Nicholai slowly lowered down and picked up his children " Did you behave for your mother "
" Yea " Dimitri laughed , Hugging his father's neck happily whilst irina stared openly at the man behind their father .
" You're weird who are you " Irina asked , Making Nicholai looked over , Turning to face aizen just as his wife entered the room.
" This is aizen ... he'll be staying with us for a bit ... make him feel welcome " Nicholai introduced , With Dimitri struggling our of his fathers arms , Walking forward towards aizen before looking up at him .
" Irina is right ... you are weird ... but I like you ... will you be my friend " Dimitri asked blankly as aizen lowered himself to a knee , coming to an equal hight with the child .
" Greeting Dimitri and strong name for a strong boy ... I would love to be your friend " Dimitri beamed and nodded , Aizens hair falling to the side if his face as he turned to see irina Squinting at him " Snd you must be irina ... you look very smart for your age "
" I am ... " Irina huffed as Nicholai's wife came up behind her children .
" That's enough children ... your father and I have much to discuss with aizen ... go along and play " Dimitri sagged slightly , winging for a moment before irina room his hand and they matched out of the room .
" So you're aizen " Yolanda peered at aizen with a judgemental eye , Turning a disapproving eye to her husband " He's your responsibility "
" Uh ... hm ... It's lovely to meet you miss Yolanda... your husband has told me nothing but lovely things about you " Aizen extended his hand only to he met with a sniff as the woman departed.
Sighing , nocholai grumbled to himself before turning back to aizen.
" Forgive her ... she's had a long day... come ... let me show you to your room " Aizen accompanied Nocholai up the stairs to the second floor. where he was shown a sparcly decorated room with a light bulb hanging from the ceiling , with a cupboard and a single bed within.
" Its not much but it's all we had " Nocholai expressed his apologies, Yet slumped as aizen shook his head and gently pet the man's shoudler .
" It is more than enough my friend, You've done your best for me ... that is more than I could have asked for ... " Aizen stepped into the room .
Having already released a burst of kyoka suigetsu apon the family when they were all gathered in the entryway.
" I'll leave you to get acquainted then ... " Aizen bid nicholai well before he closed the door to let aizen rest .
' The emotion in the air have grown stronger ... somethings happening ' Intending to investigate ... aizen departed the house without anyone noticing his departure .
...
Alexi ran for his life, his rimmed glasses cracked as the ugly brown devil behind him chased him through the snow .
Blood leaked down the side of his face , His deformed face shining with fear , His chubby face contorting as he fell .
' NO ' Alexi cried out as the thing chasing him leapt onto his fallen position , Screaming in his face whilst he too screamed back .
It grabbed his shoudlers , Shaking him back and forward before raising him into the air and sniffing him , Opening its mouth and moving to devouring him .
The snap of a twig stopped their movements with a small burst of air making then turn their heads to the source of the disturbance .
" Are you ... one of these so called devils " Aizen looked down at the creature with narrowed eyes , tilting his head slightly as the two regarded eachother .
It grunted and slung alexi away , The boys body rolling across the ground before impacting a tree bot so far away .
" Please allow me a moment of experimentation " An aura exploded off of aizen without anyone's but his own notice , Entrapping the devil in a cocoon of his reitsu .
Alexi froze in place after attempting to mvor and flee , The trees shaking under the newfound pressure.
' Will it work on these beings as it does humans ' Aizen thought internally as he created an illusion of himself walking to the opposite side of the clearing .
A smile came to his face as the creature and its victim both turned away following the illusion that wasn't real . And yet a modicum of sadness echoed throughout aizen at the realisation .
" You are ... disappointing "Aizen pondered deep in thought as the creature leapt back , It's jaws releasing copious amounts of drool as it slowly circled around the yet to move aizen .
" Your existence is as abhorrent as those ants you hunt ... it's pathetic really " Aizen turned away and began to walk in a slow gait " You lack power ... "
" This Is the one time I'll extend the curtsey of mercy, As creatures such as you aren't worth the expenditure of energy needed to kill ... rejoice in your continued feeble existence " Aizen paused for another moment , Picking up the sound of rushed footsteps in his direction.
" As expected from a creature as ... unevolved as yourself ... all you know is instinct " Aizen didn't even look to the devil that out of sheer instinct had managed to leap away from aizen instead of obliterating itself on aizens reitsu barrier .
" Instincts that serve one well none the less " Aizen turned back to the creature , A simple black katana slowly coming into existence, Swirling together from the reitsu in his right hand ' Come out kyoka '
" Since a creature such as yourself , So weak and pathetic in its existence it cannot even comprehend such things as its own existence ... I will extend the mercy of exterminating you , A mercy killing ... " Aizen announced with his even and uncaring tone .
" Allow me to test the resilience of a creature such as yourself " Aizen suddenly appeared infront of the devil who's eyes opened wide , Leaning back as aizen simply swung the blade of kyoka suigetsu up .
Due to leaning back just In time , The devil , Instead of being sliced cleanly in half , Had managed to only have its left arm bisected from its body.
" Hm ... even at my slowest it is still too much for you " The cockroach devil cried out falling back in pain as the stump that was its arm spurted blood .
" Bako # 4 " Aizen uttered , his palm simply extending towards the cockroach devil , electric yellow light moving like a snake Leaping from his hand , Striking the cockroach devil in the chest before the yellow snake like rope wound around it and bound it in place .
It roared in anger , Trying to flee before it's legs too were bound in place as the rope bound it in a cocoon of light .
' Bakudo still works on these beings , My zanpakto's manifestation is capable of striking these beings too ... it appears that at the very least, This human and this devil are somewhat spiritually aware '
Aizen paused once again in thought as the energy that composed its being seemed to move with a will of its own , Flowing away , Twisting and contorting before being sucked into a small tear in the world .
' We'll... it seems the energy has a will of its own hm ' Aizen continued on unimpeded , Stepping back into the city of kazan towards his temporary abode .
A sound brought his attention to the origional target of the devils attack , The Russian teen boy currently experiencing the affects of being exposed to his reitsu . Curled up on the ground and shaking like a leaf , His face was pale , Blood running down his face and ears .
' Surviving this long under the pressure of my reitsu is commendable enough ... ' Aizen gave no further thought to the teens disposition , Instead he simply looked down down the bridge of his nose before turning tail and simply walking away .
