Kazui's POV:

Its like I can't sleep. Constant darkness surrounds me as I try to look around; trying to find at least some light. It didn't feel like a dream nor a nightmare. Just pure emptiness as I swim through nothingness. Then suddenly, a loud BANG rang in my ears. The darkness scurried back and disappeared into nothing as it faded into dust. White blinded my eyes as it flashed in an instant.

"Hey"

I turned around to see a figure standing in the distance. Somehow it sounded as if that voice was right inside of my ear. By instinct, I tried to grab my Zanpakuto from my back, but all I grabbed was air.

"Looking for something, Kazui?". I felt a breath in my ear.

I swung around and kicked but felt nothing. Who was that? Where could it be? Why am I here?

"Who are you?"

"I am ########"

From the corner of my eye, I could see a figure to my left. I harnessed my Spiritual Energy within my right arm. It was similar to Uncle Chad's El Directo, but with my own power.

"Gatsurin" I threw a circular shaped attack similar to a Getsuga Tenshou, but smaller.

The figure blocked my attack with a sword. No, a Zanpakuto. My Zanpakuto in Shikai form.

It laughed, "You are certainly full of surprises, Kazui", then I felt a hand behind my back, "But I've been there every step of the way. Since the beginning".

I swept its legs and pointed my hand at the figure and saw what it truly looked like. It wore a normal Soul Reaper uniform, but the colours were inverted, rendering the clothing completely white. Along with that, the figure's skin and hair were completely white. Only the sclera (white part of the eye) was completely black, with blue pupils.

"Bakudo #62, *Hyapporankan" a glowing white stick flew out of my hand, then multiplying into many more. Those sticks pinned the figure onto the ground, immobilizing it.

"I said, who are you?" I demanded in a voice with more authority.

"Don't worry, you'll know soon enough", The figure grinned at me, "When the time is right, you will know"

"ANSWER ME!"

A blade pierced through my chest. Blood spurted out of my mouth as I turned to look down at the tip of my own blade. With the remaining strength I had left, I turned to look around to see a man with long black hair, a mouth and body covered in grey bandages. The rest of his body was covered in dark substance, maybe shadows.

"M-Mugetsu..."

"Return to where you came from, child. You are not ready to experience this part of your powers yet"

I gasped as I woke up. It was 7am in the morning. The sun shone brightly in the blue sky, birds were chirping, and the sounds of people talking downstairs were heard. Nothing was out of the ordinary. I looked down at my chest and then took off my shirt. No sword pierces were to be found.

I sighed in relief, whereas someone gasped in horror.

"PERVERT"








???'s POV:

"Hey, Mugetsu, buddy. You think our boy Kazui will be alright?" I leaned against my sword.

"It will all fall into the right hands. Kazui knows the right path so do not fret. Everything will be alright", Mugetsu stands intimidatingly over me.

"Whatever you say", I stood upright and pointed my sword at Mugetsu, "But if you end up hurting Kazui in any way possible, I might do something I regret"

I turn back away from him. We usually get along well, but up until this point in time, we crossed each other. Kazui's development was in his hands, wherever he liked it or not. I only hope that he preserves his smile and happiness. I hate the darkness; despite the fact that I'm a Hollow.

I walk back into the infinite abyss awaiting me, blinded in white.
