Bleach: Home of the Hidden Ancients - Chapter 3 (Fan Fiction)

Chapter 3: To Teach Or Not To Teach…

Karin went through her mental checklist for the fifth and final time standing just around the corner from Mr Urahara’s shop:

-Kick goat face- check

-Tell Yuzu that she’s off to play soccer- check

-Run through arguments for becoming a soul reaper- triple check

-Run through arguments that might be had with Ichigo after becoming a soul reaper- afraid to consider

 She took a deep breath. That’s usually what you’re supposed to do when you’re nervous, right? Karin found out that the more “deep” breaths she took the more awkward and annoyed she got with herself. So scrapping that idea, she turned the corner and strode up to the shop. Surprisingly the courtyard was quiet. Ururu stood obediently sweeping the courtyard but Jinta was nowhere to be seen. Well at least she didn’t have to worry about that bonehead screaming in her ear. He was probably off playing actual baseball somewhere.

“Hey Ururu!” Karin called out. Ururu flinched then glanced at her

“Oh… hello Ms Kurosaki…” She mumbled nervously.

Karin sighed. It was always “Ms Kurosaki” with her.

“You know it’s fine to call me Karin?” she said walking into the shade of the shop’s eves.

Ururu gave a small smile in return and answered, “I know that… So what can we do for you Ms Karin?”

Okay, she thought. This is it.

“I need to speak to Mr Urahara,” she commanded.

“Um… I’ll just go around to see if he’s awake…” Ururu muttered as she quickly whisked away to the back of the store.

“He better be,” Karin quietly threatened.

Eventually the curtains opened again to reveal the hat and clogs man, himself.

“Good morning Ms Kurosaki. What can I do for you today?” He asked lazily. A polite smirk framed his face and his hid eyes under the shade of the hat. He waltzed over to a chair in a cramped corner and kicked back in it.

Karin stepped forward with a sense of purpose. Her composure was firm and unrelenting: shoulders back, feet hip width apart and furrowed eyebrows. She may only have looked like a scrawny middle school girl but her aura (if you would call it that) sent out the message of “I know what I want and I want it now”.

 “You know what I’m here for Urahara. I need to become a-“

“We talked about this already and the answer’s still no. I’m sorry but there won’t be any further discussion on the topic,” he interrupted bluntly, hoping to drain her confidence. But Karin was only fuelled more by his rude interruption.

“No discussion. Just decisions. And I have decided I want to become a soul reaper. Teach me and make it quick or I’ll find out how on my own,” she supplied.

Urahara just sighed tiredly. He didn’t exactly want to commute with anyone or anything until at least 11 o’clock in the morning. Anytime before that he was classified as ‘unfit to work’.

“Look, you’re just too young and inexperienced to become a soul reaper. Anyway there are probably heaps of rules and regulations against informal soul reaper training in the Soul Society…” he gave as his decent sounding answer.

 “Since when do you follow rules? Ichigo was only about two years older than me when he became a soul reaper! And besides, I already fend off hollows with my school bag. If I had training I could actually take care of all of it and cleanse them instead of just giving them a bad hair day. Wouldn’t that help the Soul Society?” She fired back. Urahara was slightly impressed despite himself. She had thought this out well.

“Ichigo was a special case and he was in dire circumstances so you can’t compare your scenario to his,” He countered.

 Karin huffed knowing that some of the stuff he said was true.

“I am in dire circumstances. Just yesterday Yuzu and I were attacked. We were lucky enough to get away with just a graze. But you of all people should know the damage that can be done.”

“That’s why Ichigo became a soul reaper in the first place; to protect the two of you. You can’t just throw his dedication to you guys away like that,” Urahara said. He knew he had almost won when he saw Karin’s face. She stared at her feet with guilt. Hopefully that was enough to knock her out of the argument. But as she looked back up, her eyes had hardened. They were bitter.

 “Ichigo is barely ever here. Sure we all understand why and we still love him but that doesn’t stop us from being hollow bait. His circle of protection has increased. But I need to protect Yuzu and myself. That’s how I’ll protect him… from himself. If we were hurt while he was away you know who he’d blame,” Karin looked at Mr Urahara sternly. “That’s not going to happen. Not if I can do something about it. I want to use my spiritual powers, I want to protect others and I won’t let my family be broken any more than it has been.”

 Mr Urahara stayed silent absorbing everything he had heard. Then he muttered something almost inaudible.

“Is this what you want or what Ichigo wants?”

Karin replied clearly, “I want it.”

Finally he sighed then laughed.

“Oh damn, if Ichigo ever finds out about this I’m going to get cut up into little pieces…”

Karin relaxed her shoulders then replied, “well let’s hope he’ll never have to find out.”

Voltron scene idea... thing...

Had an idea of an angsty but cool scene for Voltron (kind of a Shallura moment). Set the scene: Paladins have lost their lions and Zarkon decides to battle on ground level with them to prove the strength of the Galra empire even without the lions. Keith tries to go straight into the battle but promptly gets knocked down with Lance trying to go and help him but being blasted down as well. Hunk and Pidge get cornered by Galra troops while Coran battles the warships in the sky above and is losing. Allura is aboard them hunting down the lions. Shiro is left to try and keep Zarkon occupied but is slowly falling into despair as Zarkon taunts him. 

“Why would the black lion accept you as it’s paladin? It’s only because our technology” He points to his arm. Shiro swings desperately and out of character “Shut up!”. 

“No? Or is it because it recognised me?” Shiro freezes and Zarkon takes the chance to manipulate him even more. “Did it choose you because within you it saw a reflection of me? Your comrades follow your orders without question, putting their lives on the line for what you command. How are we different?” Shiro is cradling his head and attempts to swing to at Zarkon again. Hunk and Pidge try and call out to him over the sound of the fight but fail, getting separated further and further away from him. 

Zarkon knocks Shiro to his knees and grasps onto his neck making him look up at him. “You’re just like me.”

“No,” A beam of purple light blasts back both the troops battling Pidge and Hunk and Zarkon away from Shiro. The Black Lion skids in front of him and the other paladins defensively. Allura’s voice booms out from the Lion towards where Zarkon is slowly getting back up. “It’s because he’s like me”. 

In an AU where Anakin raises Luke and Leia, he’d so dump babysitting duties on Ahsoka. 

Padme - “Anakin, I thought I told you to look after the kids.”

Anakin - “Yes, but in my defence just look at them!”

*Ahsoka force lifting Luke and Leia across the room, pretending they’re flying*

Anakin - “... imma so proud :’) “

Ahsoka+Children

The only time she'd truly get to hold him T~T
