I feel like saying a few things about this fullbringer thing...
Spoiler:- Manga:
The concept seems to stem partly from Shintoism, the belief that every object has a soul or god. That's pretty much all it's got in common.
The ability of fullbringers itself seems about as hax as Aizen's illusion abilities. You can control the spirit of anything in the world. You can alter their physical properties, manipulate them telekinetically, or transform them into something anything completely different while violating the conservation of mass.
Who in their right mind would want to throw that power away?
...Oh, and the notion of making alcohol help you drink it seems unintentionally hilarious.
Check here for my Gijinka Project. (Alright, so I'm not good with advertising, is that such a big problem?)
Check here for my comic series, Fettuccine and Friends. (Well, at least I'm trying to advertise.)
Sigh... I'm sorry you guys, but the universe just seems to have my fanfic right now. I've had writers block, I can't think in coherent order for the sequence of events, and now Cell, who features prominently in the next chapter, is changing his Bankai, which I'd planned on showing.
Although I said I'd have my new bankai on my next hop, I decided to lurk (which I often do) and saw your post;
You can use my old one, I don't want to give you more work than you already have, Eon.
I'd be interested to see what you made of it, aswell.
Ciaossu,

So here are your two options.
1.) I either continue the current fanfic, which could take upwards of another month for the next chapter, and then there are still no garauntees I'd finish it.
2.) I post what would've happened in my current fanfic (i.e. the plot and its many twists), then move on and create a new fanfic with us as Fullbringers, fighting in a war against the Hollows. I've got an idea stream for the second one, at least. Not to mention I'd be including only the people who are semi-active, so I wouldn't have to stress over the inactive people like Luppi.
I'll give you guys until late tomorrow to decide. I'm personally leaning towards the second one.
The latter.

His blonde hair soaked with rain and blood and his brown eyes wide with terror of his situation. The hollows in the forest were overwhelming and easily ate the other academy students and their instructor. Five of the fiends slowly moved toward him to devour the last of the fool hardy class that dared to enter their domain.
Move.
His body refused to listen to him, the wet soil enhancing the sound of the hollows approach. He berated his body’s inability to move and cursed at predicament. His body trembling, either from the cold wetness of the rain and mud or from fear, it didn’t matter. He screamed at his body to move, to fight, to avenge his fallen classmates, to kill those murderous hollows, and to save him from such a horrible fate.
FIGHT!
It could have been adrenaline from the battle, hatred from the murder, rage from being attack, sadness from losing so many friends, or desperation to survive, but whatever it was it gave him to strength to take his sword a slice the first hollow he saw in half. The next swiftly across the mask, the third lost its legs before being stabbed in the head.
The boy’s movements were a dance, full of rage, anger, sadness, angst, despair and desperation. Every kill drove him deeper into his bloodlust, his brown eyes reflecting pure and utter carnage.
Death.
More hollows came to slaughter; eventually the boy’s body reached its limits, trembling after killing its twenty hollow killing spree. Ten more hollows came and surrounded him, each ready to eat the person that nearly wiped them all out. The boy was drenched in mud and blood and didn’t even have the strength to scream. His body too drained from battle to do anything other than lay stranded on the forest’s damp ground.
The description here is just... absolutely superb. Well done.

Just a bit nitpicking here.

“You do know revenge won’t bring him back to us, so it’s pointless to let yourself be consumed with vengeance.” Jin said coldly, glancing at his little brother.
“Who are you to tell me what is pointless!? Why should you get to decide if I should seek revenge or not!? Whoever killed our father deserves to die along with everything they cherish!” Rotrum justified himself hand on his sword and fiery eyes glaring coldly at his brother.
“Calm down, killing me will just keep you from your vengeance, speaking of, since mother died giving birth to you, I should kill you then following your logic.” Jin countered while locking his eyes with Rotrum.
I don't know why, but this just reminds me of Sasuke and Itachi.

At first, you mentioned that it was half wolf half man, so I thought it couldn't be Kida, because she's obviously not a man. But all other instances were referring to the beast as an "it". Also you mentioned at the beginning that Kida and I were unleashed onto the world.

That's definitely some really cool knowledge right there. I really do like it when (religious) mythology influences a bit of a the story.
YOU JUST LOST THE GAME!
Click HERE to be rickrolled... c'mon, you know you want to.
Spoiler:- I HAVE DEFIED ALL MATHS AND LOGIC!:
A = B
A^2 = AB
A^2 - B^2 = AB - B^2
(A + B)(A - B) = B(A - B)
(A + B) = B
A + B = B
B + B = B
2B = B 2 = 1
Here it is, my new bankai (and slightly edited shikai) + pictures what the look like. (Don't mind the occasional copy paste/paste and cut lines, I made this on the back of a school-related draft and couldn't erase it because I made it with ink).
Zanpaktou Name; Siska Type; Kido Zanpaktou Spirit; A little Hummingbird. Release Command; Twirl
Zanpaktou spirit details;
Siska is a very shy Zanpakto spirit and can be seen by others if she trusts them enough.
Her favorite spell is Hado #90, Kurohitsugi [Black Coffin] and she has trained me in using it effectively.
She has the tendency to protect everyone she can, no matter the cost to herself (or to me... ).
Siska goes from a small dagger in a great longbow, her special ability is to charge the arrows (made from my spiritual energy) with Hado or Bakudo spells. Combination spells are possible but are very hard to pull off.
However, I must be able to cast the spell without reciting the lines. otherwise the arrow will backfire. The colour of the feathers change according to the spell that is currently charged.
-Lataminen: Up to two arrows I fire (cannot be Kido enhanced) are controlled by my zanpakto spirit herself. This makes the arrows a type of lock-on missile.
This does however take a lot of concentration making me unable to fire another arrow while she's controlling them.
After calling out my Bankai, the sky becomes clouded and a dark mist descends around me for the duration of the morphing.
The bow morphs into a blade with a dark colored chain attached to a bracer on my arm, small electric currents circle the chain.
The chain can vary in length; from a couple of centimeters to a distance of 25 meters straith.
Although the chain is made of a metalic substance, it is highly flexable and can be used independantly by Siska to protect or attack.
If the chain rotates around me at high speeds, I can achieve some sort of levitation. This effect can be expanded to allies or to isolate an enemy in the sky.
The blade has an unusual shape (As seen in the spoiler picture), it also has the ability to contain multiple hado spells at the same time (at a maximum of 4). These are released on the next slash with their effects combining.
Binding spells can be transferred to the chain to increase the chances of containing an opponent.
Each individual metal ring can disconnect to function as small shields, although the impact they can take when seperated is greatly lowered.
Other "modes":
Railgun;
The chain coils together to create a barrel, an individual metal ring is fired with the combined magnetism of the electric currents.
Speed reached: 1030 m/s (2307.2 mph).
The rings melt from friction with the atmosphere at around 600 meters.
3 shots per minute, 20 seconds charge per shot.
Whip; I hold the chain near the bracer and use it to whip/swing around my sword, can only be used if the sword is uncharged.
Tempest; I hold my sword like a tonfa and use the chain to attack. The power per hit is decreased. But my attacks become erratic, which makes my moves pretty unpredictable.
Metalic Globe; The chain splits up in multiple parts (5 metal rings a piece), these form a globe around an area which allows me to control metalic items contained inside it when it was formed. New items entering won't be affected.
Warning: Can contain badly drawn swords and bows

Backstory: I have not many memories since I unlocked my shikai state and got recruited into the squad system
Fullbring
Note: contains programming terms, see the last lines for a small legend;
Fullbring Name:Data Drive
Item: Portable hard disk
Activation description: When I activate my fullbring, the blue power led on the hard disk lights up, A circle made out of strings appears around the disk. Each string is seperated from the next by a &. Empty spots are " _ "
Ability Details: Once I pull out these strings, the hard disk changes into the object that the string represents.
I can drag the string back to the power led (which is present in all forms), reversing the item back to the hard disk model.
I can drag out 2 strings at most, if they're next to each other in the circle. (such as "sword"&"shield")
If I am familiar with an object, I can make a variable of it to place it in the empty string spots in the hard disk. A variable is represented by an incomplete cube.
However, the object will be created out of the hard disk available substances.
I can vaguely change the form of the object though I am limited to use materials made out of:
* magnet wire
* gold (in small amounts)
* iron/steel
* rubber
* (thermo)plastic
* copper (in small amounts)
What it looks like:
*refers to the image*
The dark colour is grey, the light colour is orange.
The cubes are a mix of light and dark blue. (yeah I messed up a bit while drawing, should have used a pencil...)
Spoiler:- Fullbring image:
Legend;
A string is a sequence of characters and is contained within " (such as "sword")
A variable is an object which holds data (in the above example the physical sword cube would be the variable)

Bankai Name; 'Hotenjin Siska' (Sky Lord's army)
Bankai Details & abilities;

Seems complicated, but pretty cool nonetheless.
If you were a zanpaktou spirit, what would your powers be?
I guess shape-shift, if I go along with my zanpaktou's abilities
Spoiler:- Fullbringers:
What would your Fullbring Weapon be?
...I guess a pen that turns into a small dagger

I like your new zanpakuto abilities Cell. The Railgun is awesome!
You should probably send a PM to Golde to let him know about the edits.
If you were a zanpaktou spirit, what would your powers be?
I'd probably wield a large executioner's blade, which would be my shikai form.
As for abilities, probably just and increase in strength and agility.
I'd mostly be a melee type of zanpakuto.
Spoiler:- Manga 434:
Lol at the Don Kanonji show sign off. I wonder if he makes a lot of money.
Aww, it's cute the Karin and Yuzu still worry about Ichigo and stay up late to wait for him. xD
"Berry in the Box", another somewhat abstract title that fits neatly to the chapter.
Game boy (Yukio) is pretty good at being a prick, made better by his usual quite nature. xD
And we also learn the name of the tall, dark-haired lady. Jackie is a pretty western name though.
And so we get to see another Fullbring ability. I guess they don't have to be weapons per say.
Lmao, Ichigo's gonna get attacked by a giant stuffed animal! XD
But I wonder what Riruka meant on that last page. Hopefully Mangafox's translation can be more clear.

I want the first one. I'd like to see that finished. It's better than, well, left unfinished, and then starting a new story altogether...
jk. Go with the second, of course. 8D I thought ILPy once said he wanted to write a fanfic with us as Arrancars
I need to catch up with the anime, but manga still going good so far. In fact..
Spoiler:
lol Ichigo. "Why do you always come in late?"
So the guy's name is Yukio. 8D I LOVE his character. XD "Sorry, could you start over one more time? WIN. I'd like to see his Fullbring
And I think Fullbring is actually more complicated than just turning a chain into a fricking huge sword. Riruka's Fullbring doesn't work that way, does it? It's more like an ability to make something happen rather than an ability to make a weapon.
Well, it looks like Ichigo's definitely lost his... doom and gloom, with the way Karin and Yuzu reacted to him.
And that splash page is so cute.
Yukio's obviously a straight girl or gay, he's complaining about a pantyshot!
I think Riruka being flustered around Ichigo is more than just her attraction. Even with just a step, she reacted like that. It just doesn't seem right that it would have THAT much of an effect.
That's an... odd power. But it tells us more about their powers. It looks like she controlled the spirit of the shadow of her thumb, and used that as her "pass". If so, then maybe the Fullbringers can give objects special powers with their ability (which wouldn't be so much of a stretch from them changing the object).
I really like how both Ichigo and his speech bubble distorted XD.
That bear is CREEPY.

Wow, that's really awesome. I like the way it almost implements a Quincy fighting style as a Shinigami's zanpakutou. I don't completely understand how you would use bakudou spells on your shikai.
And 4 hadou spells unleashed at once? Man, I'm almost worried

Ah Don Kanonji's weird catchphrase At least never change. It's sweet how Karin and Yuzu still worry about Ichigo. With Ichigo getting his powers back.. His dead attitude gone Yukio... I like him
And the way Riruka reacted when Ichigo took one step near her... More than a Crush :P Ichigo gets girls without trying.. Easily :O Her powers are.. I can't explain it.. and we learn Two new FullBringers names.. And a new Ability..
And not all are Attack-Based?
What did Riruka say on the last apge?
The bear scares me.. Thats all
Why is Manga Fox so slow?

Hmm now that I think about it, it does have something Quincyish to it. The original idea comes from that my grandfather and his father and... all practised Bow-sports. I'm not bad with a bow myself (only shot at 2 different occasions), but can't find the time and money to get a bow and enter a club. Bows are sooo expensive nowadays. :s
It works in the same way, the arrow is fired charged (with for example, #21 Sekienton), when the arrow hits the target, the effect activates (a cloud of red smoke). The distance the spell can reach is increased, but it *has* to hit a target to activate.
Don't worry, I go easy on allies and practice matches.
If you were a zanpaktou spirit, what would your powers be?
Kido absorption, with the ability to send it back to the target. It is a little bit like my zanpakto spirit in a way.

Hehe, when she had the dolls house I wondered if it would be possible to manipulate the souls of humans aswell as the souls in objects, so they could make him really small and fit in the house. But they used a different excuse. >.>
PIGGEH!
WARNING, EVERYTHING past Edelinna's description was a total crapshoot, i REALLY wanted to get my backstory out of the way, and I REALLY hate it, but i wan't to get back to the main story, so i apologize.
Peace, Love, and Fighting, here's my new Prologue. <3
Yes yes, i know I mary sue'd half of this, and I apologize. As I told you before, I really wanted to get a backstory out of the way for the main story..
I kinda like the opening. So you got to be a shinigami because you're crazy? XD And the last line was WIN. 8D
Also, how do you pronounce... Arcin? XD

Spoiler:- Inverted Souls, Chapter 6:
[i]
This was bad, without their Zanpaktous they couldn’t easily defeat their reflections and without their spirits, honour bound they could not use their dormant forms, but soon they noticed they neither of their alter others had Zanpaktous either. Guess this meant a battle of brawns then; some of the captains were fine with this, cracking their knuckles and standing in their fighting stances. They heard a scratching and looked over as the blue lupine Female started to gouge the floor with her claws, grinning as she bared her canines up at her reflection, who grinned cruelly back.
I kinda forgot... Why did they lose their zanpakto again? Did the inner world incident render the zanpakto to be unconscious, or what?
And, I agree with ILPy. Chess match! Or cookie baking contest
And I'm trying to make sense of Riruka's ability right now...
Her ability, Dollhouse, allows her to shrink whatever she finds cute into her dollhouse. Now, if I remember correctly, the Fullbring ability in general is the ability to control the soul of an object to some extent.
How does that link to Ichigo being sucked into a dollhouse? That's kinda what I'm wondering right now...
And the way she said "My Fullbring is called Dollhouse" reminds me so much of Jojo's Bizarre Adventure...just replace "Fullbring" with "Stand ability" and "Dollhouse" with a random tarot card/Egyptian God/Western rock band/song.
"My Stand ability is Green Day, it causes a degenerative mold to grow on any living being that lowers in altitude".
"My Stand ability is Pearl Jam, it hides in the food of my customers and makes it taste irresistably delicious and then fixes and detoxifies their bodies from within."
"My Stand ability is Stairway to Heaven. I can alter the gravity of the universe in such a way that time speeds up indefinitely until the whole universe collapses into a singularity point and recreates itself with minor changes without affecting any living being. Unless they die while the universe is recreating itself, at which point they are wiped out of existence."
Of course, JJBA's Stand abilities are much more fun than Riruka's Dollhouse. They're also explained way better and have very consistent abilities.
I wonder how Kubo will explain Dollhouse with respect to souls...
"By controlling the soul of my dollhouse, I can make it help me shrink the souls of other things that I find cute and put them in itself."
That doesn't make sense no matter how I see it...
It can at least be used to explain how the pig doll is moving...

The ancient Mayans were said to have foretold that the world would end in the year 2012. Their calendar ended, but gave no indication as to how or why that was when it would end.
For years and years, people guessed, theorized, bullshitted, and in the case of Roland Emmerich, made movies about the concept. So when 2012 actually rolled around and nothing happened, everyone forgot about it.
What they all forgot was that December 21 was the date the end was prophesized.
It was just a typical Friday the morning of December 21, 2012. Adults got up and went on their way to work. Children bemoaned going to school. The world moved in perfect harmony.
And then it was all shattered in an instant.
The sky was ripped asunder all over the world, and they descended from the heavens in droves. Hollows, the empty and hateful souls of the departed.
They fell upon the human population like a plague of locusts, devouring anything in their path to satiate their unwavering hunger. Human weapons did little to stop them, at most the wounds they inflicted slowed the Hollows down long enough for a few unharmed people to drag away the corpses of the dead and dying, or in rare cases, those who still clung to life by a thread.
Now, in 2035, the human race faces extinction from the Hollow plague. Outside of the guarded refugee camps, only pockets of scattered nomads subsist on what is left of their once great civilization. Only a miracle will serve to help them now.

Chapter 1: (Full)Bring It On
A shadow swiftly flitted from place to place in the ruined districts of Cleveland, Ohio. A figure, revealing itself to be a black-haired boy roughly 18 years of age, stepped out of the alley and glanced furtively at the surrounding area. Satisfied that there no Hollows around, he slid around the nearest destroyed building and through a shattered window frame. He slid down the brick sill and landed on cracked tiles, finding himself in what looked like the remnants of a church kitchen.
“Jackpot,” he murmured, reaching into his battered black jacket and pulling out a small sack. He stalked around the kitchen, picking up knives, matches, fuel, and anything else that might come in handy. I wish I had more time to search, but I don’t.
He ducked out of the kitchen and into the nearby dining hall, hastily stuffing the half-filled sack into his pocket once more. Judging from the amount of splinters and sawdust covering every conceivable surface, the youth guessed it must have had wood paneling and floors, probably just before the time he was born. “Nothing in here but dust and echoes,” he groused, stepping through the piles of destroyed tables and toppled masonry. His foot creaked on a loose floorboard, and he froze, realizing that any nearby Hollows would’ve heard the sound. He flattened himself against the ruins of a nearby door, hoping that any Hollows coming to investigate the sound wouldn’t find him.
His breath caught in his lungs as he realized his situation, the dust clogging his nostrils not helping with his already strained breathing. He clutched a small object around his neck, an antique bronze key, with a piece of string tying it into place around his neck. As he did so, his gaze caught something completely improbable in the utterly destroyed room: a fully intact oak door, furnished with a stylized brass door knob that was roughly the same color as his key.
“The hell…” he muttered, his eyes glazing over as he remembered the last thing his father had told him when he gave him the key as heavy footsteps plodded down the hallway outside. “Keys are wondrous objects, Seijuro. Their simple function, opening doors, is what the human race used to thrive on. We used to be able to open doors as we pleased, discovering new things and creating new paths for ourselves. Now, we’re lucky if we can open a door without a Hollow standing outside, ready to devour us.”
“Remember Seijuro, if you need to open up a path for yourself, if you ever find the need to change things, you’ll find the door this key belongs to… and the key to many other doors in life as well.”
Well, I’ve never needed to open a door as much as I have now, Seijuro thought, standing. So here goes nothing. He strode over to the door, jammed the key into the lock, and twisted it roughly.
A barely audible click answered him, and the door slid open of its own accord as soon as he removed the key. He darted into the pitch-black room, shutting the door quickly but quietly behind him.
He pressed himself against the door, taking a deep breath and holding it lest the Hollow hear his respiration. The footsteps outside thudded louder and louder, and Seijuro almost gave up hope until he heard the noise fading. After a few more agonizing moments, he exhaled explosively, grateful he’d made it out of there alive.
He groped drunkenly around for a switch for a few minutes before realizing that the power in this building would most certainly have been cut ages ago and giving up. Knowing he would get no more chances, he opened the door and bolted back through the dining hall into the kitchen, then clambered out the window and into the relative safety of the nearby alley.
“I can’t believe that actually worked,” he breathed to no one in particular, sliding down the outside wall next to a rusted-out dumpster. He pulled the key from around his neck, staring in wonderment at the tiny piece of metal that had somehow saved his life.
That was when he noticed something peculiar. The key’s head had changed, ever so slightly, from a two-pronged bolt to a three-pronged one. “That’s… not possible…” he muttered, his eyes widening. He’d memorized the key’s shape after wearing it for eight years of his life as a good luck charm. Could its shape have changed in response to my need to open that door? he wondered, slowly turning the key over in his palm before gripping it tightly. One way to find out. It’s nuts… but hell, better to die trying than just dodging the inevitable for the rest of my life.
Seijuro Arashi sighed, pushing off the ground and standing with a grunt of exertion. He ripped the key from around his neck, focusing as hard as he could. To fight these Hollows, I need strength. I need conviction. I need a weapon.
“Give me… a weapon,” he growled, his voice carrying the weight of a lifetime of regrets and resentment. He felt the key in his hand heat up and slowly vibrate, growing like putty in his hand. He opened his eyes, watching as golden light spread out from his hand and expanded, growing longer and longer as he stared. After a few more seconds the light faded, revealing a six-foot long staff clutched in his grip. It was emerald green in color, with gold highlights. Its smooth surface felt cool and glassy to his touch, and as he hefted it, it felt light as a feather. The end of the staff was tipped with a razor-sharp silver blade, glinting in the dull moonlight that shone through the perpetual cloud cover of the city.
“Wow…” he breathed, then grinned. This was beyond anything he had expected. He clasped the staff tightly with both hands, testing its balance before taking a swing and the ruined wall next to him. The blade carved a huge swath into the bricks and masonry, cleaving straight through to the point where Seijuro could see everything on the other side.
Hot damn. The black-haired youth smirked, watching his cobalt blue eyes glitter in the reflection of his face on the blade. Now to see what that could do to a Hollow.
He hefted the guran dao onto his shoulder, walking through the hole he’d slashed in the wall of the church. He strutted forward, letting his weapon fall to the classic down position with practiced ease from handling crowbars as a defense against the odd mugger as a kid. He strode forward with purpose, his eyes flitting quickly from shadow to shadow in case there were Hollows hiding there.
An unearthly howl, slightly melodious and haunting in pitch, reverberated through the ruins of the church, and Seijuro stiffened as he recognized the distinctive sound of a Hollow in pain. He’d only heard the sound once before, when he’s seen one Hollow tear another to shreds with reckless abandon before devouring its corpse. Though he’d only been six at the time, the memory was forever imprinted in his brain.
What could possibly hurt one of those… wait, never mind. He shook his head, realizing how ironic it was to be asking himself that. It’s either another Hollow… or someone else who… can do whatever I can do. His fists clenched tightly around his weapon, and he continued forward, moving much more cautiously through the rubble.
He peered around the entranceway to the ruined dining hall, noting a set of creaky old stairs made completely of dark wood. Another howl reverberated through the complex, and now Seijuro could tell it was coming from above him. He treaded forward and hung a right up the staircase, following it up stair by stair. His hands shook as he ascended, and he sighed heavily, trying to brace himself for whatever was at the top of the stairs. He stopped on the landing between the two stairwells, now able to hear a slight crackling noise as well as panting for breath. He paused, trying to listen…
“Burn in Hell.”
All the air in the tiny stair well surged upward for an instant, then a flash of crimson flames consumed everything on the upper level, surging through the hall and licking at the top stair, searing itself into Seijuro’s retinas with its brilliance. He recoiled sharply, slamming straight into the wall, his arms covering his head while burning heat washed over him, and he prepared for his death…
And then it stopped. The conflagration fizzled out as quickly as it had roared to life, sparking and cooling to nothingness in an instant. Seijuro gaped in awe, his ragged breaths indicating both his shock and his inability to breathe.
“Whoever’s there, it’s safe,” a deep baritone voice called from just up the stairs. Seijuro jumped, not expecting a human voice to come through after the massive firestorm. He felt the tendrils of fear ensnare his heart for a second, but quashed them with curiosity, and strode purposefully, if timidly, up the remaining stairs.
Another man, a muscular black guy that looked to be slightly older than he was, stood in the center of a still-smoldering crater. He wore a tight red t-shirt that showed off his muscular forearms, and a pair of ripped up darkwash jeans. At first glance, it seemed like his right hand was made of gold, but further inspection revealed that it was actually a gauntlet, bearing an etched symbol of a ruby-red flame.
“I’d almost given up hope of finding another like me,” the man said, a slight grin crossing his face as he spoke.
“Another what?” Seijuro asked, blinking as his guran dao fell to his side.
“Another Fullbringer.”
“Bless you.”
The man blinked, then chuckled. “I guess I should explain what I meant… and introduce myself.” His grin returned, his confidence and friendly tone never disappearing. “I’m Jordan Inferno. And, as for us being Fullbringers…” He raised his gauntleted hand, the material slowly morphing, sliding into place around the middle finger of his right hand. The gold solidified into a band around the digit, a ruby setting glinting at Seijuro out of the ring. “…this is our power.”
Seijuro nodded, gesturing with his guran dao. “We can manipulate an object that it significant to us and turn it into a weapon based on our personalities, right?” he asked.
Jordan raised his eyebrow at the explanation, seemingly impressed. “Not quite, but that’s a pretty accurate analysis for a new Fullbringer,” he admitted. “Fullbring basically gives us the power to control the ‘souls’ that reside in ‘matter’.” Upon noticing the confused look on Seijuro’s face, he chuckled. “I don’t really understand all the implications of it, but that’s the only thing that makes sense. We can change the characteristics and the form of objects. That’s best displayed in our weapons, but we can also do things like ‘solidifying’ air so we can stand on it, or walking on water.”
Seijuro processed the information, blurting the only thing that came to mind to get his thoughts in order. “Was Jesus a Fullbringer?”
Jordan chuckled again. “Don’t bring religion into it, man. Especially when we’re in a church.”
Seijuro rolled his eyes. “Whatever,” he grumbled, hefting the huge blade he was carrying. “How do I turn this thing back?”
“Just imagine whatever its original form was, and concentrate on it,” Jordan replied. “It should simply regress back to its normal form.”
Nodding, Seijuro imagined the key’s original shape, and focused on the weapon in his hand. He watched it glow emerald green and shrink, until it fit into the palm of his hand. He opened his clenched fingers, finding his key was back to normal, its string still attached. “It worked,” he sighed, slipping it around his neck once again.
Jordan turned away, glancing back over his shoulder. “Follow me, kid,” he called as he started walking. “If you want to control that power of yours, you’re going to need my help.”
Seijuro frowned at this. He could tell that there was more to what he was saying than his actual wording. “You need my help as much as I need yours,” he called, giving Jordan pause. “Isn’t that right?”
The veteran Fullbringer sighed, shaking his head. “Didn’t anyone ever tell you not to look a gift horse in the mouth?” he grumbled, annoyed. “I’ll explain my plan in a safer place, where we don’t have to worry about Hollows…” He glanced back, fixing Seijuro with a look that brooked no argument. “…or eavesdroppers.” He walked away, no longer looking back. “Follow me, if you want to stop living on the run for the rest of your miserable life.”
Seijuro sighed, weighing his options. On one hand, he finally had a way to protect himself, and probably didn’t need to live with others weighing him down. On the other hand, he also wasn’t sure how far his power extended, or what limits there were to it. Nothing ventured, nothing gained. He jogged after the retreating figure of Jordan Inferno, leaving behind the scorched corpses of the Hollows he’d destroyed.

Names and Author's Note
Seijuro Arashi = Eon Master, aka me.
Jordan Inferno = MC
Jordan's Fullbring may seem like it's breaking the rules right of Fullbring now, but I'll get around to explaining it in the next chapter.
Roland Emmerich was the creator of the movie 2012.
If anyone can find the Halo quote I threw in there, I'll be slightly impressed.
Also, in case you don't know, Cleveland, Ohio is my hometown. That's the only reason I chose to make it the starting point for this.
Yeah, it's up. Still need a title for the fic itself, so suggestions would be appreciated.
Also, I'm working on the summary for Dreams of the Claws, so that'll be up eventually too.

Roland Emmerich was the creator of the movie 2012. that movie sucked
If anyone can find the Halo quote I threw in there, I'll be slightly impressed. i couldn't
Also, in case you don't know, Cleveland, Ohio is my hometown. That's the only reason I chose to make it the starting point for this. i remember Circ mentioning something about that
[/I]
Yeah, it's up. Still need a title for the fic itself, so suggestions would be appreciated. i can't think of one for reasons stated below
Also, I'm working on the summary for Dreams of the Claws, so that'll be up eventually too. yay?
so since writing my last chapter i have a serious case of writer's block. at some point during the next week, i'll be writing a one-shot type of thing. i read that fic writers can get over block by writing one shots.
the only idea i have for it so far is some of us spending 24 hours with a canon character.
One mischievous little woodpecker
Another day, pecking your holes
Ruining the woods, tree wrecker
The angry old forest god turned your poor beak into a poison knife
Poor little wood pecker, your nesting holes are all tainted
Your food with toxins rife
Touch your friends, and they all will die falling at your feet
Oh, sad little woodpecker
Poisonous tears, shining brightly, as they stream down your cheeks
devouring anything in their path so satiate their unwavering hunger.
...I think you meant, 'to'.
Human weapons did little to stop them, at most the wounds they inflicted slowed the Hollows down long enough for a few unharmed people to drag away the corpses of the dead and dying, or in rare cases, those who still clung to life by a thread.
...Wait, humans can see/harm Hollows now?
Well, I’ve never needed to open a door as much as I have now, Seijuro though, standing.
Thought. :P If I don't point this out, ILPy will later on
Seijuro processed the information, blurting the only thing that came to mind to get his thoughts in order. “Was Jesus a Fullbringer?”
lol
All in all, that's a pretty interesting first chapter. I like the opening, and I'm certainly interested to read more. =] I wonder what caused the Hollow outbreak, and what happened to the Shinigami.
Kusari - PC calendar says it's Friday. Why?
Also, Meconopsis is awesome 8D

Hi people. Four inches of snow took my power out for three days (Yet Two feet of snow barely does anything..) and I ended spenidng alto of time in book stores and cafes. I spent an hour at a Barnes and Nobles where their wi-fi was down...even their book search function was down. Apparently people rely too much on it. I also bought a gas stove at a small (Chinese?) market that had a small generator and a couple lamps in the store. There was a lack of street lights in some places and they stuck stop signs in the road.
Spoiler:- MAnga:
I'm caught up!For once
I'm guessing that Tite Kubo is taking a hand from YYH with that video-game kid's power (YYH-To Make games become reality) But that's just speculation.
Riruka seemed overprotective of her dollhouse, but with reason I suppose. I will call the doll a pig only because when I think stuffed bear I think Monzaemon.
I want Air-time..
I've seriously neglected finishing my Two-Shot Secret Santas: Soul Society (SSSS!) I will finish it soon/eventually.
(Full)Bring it on is a bit corny but I doubt most people would have thought of it anyways. I don't think I'll need to wonder about weapons like Kida's, but I do wonder about that backstory of VB here...
For KIda's Fic..I doubt it will end up being completely grappling-they'll made do with KIdou and stuff...
It's late so yeah..

I like it, and I think 'you need my help as much as I need yours' is said by Cortana to Master Chief, if I remember correctly. (*Big* Halo fan here)
Decided to change the Fullbringer weapon (Something you make up on the spot often isn't what you want it to be. XD
Spoiler:- Fullbringer weapon:
A miniature stainless steel sniper rifle model, when 'fullbringed' it becomes a full fledged M82A1 SASR (, ammunition is provided by my reiatsu but it can fire conventional ammunition.
