#1 of Burnin Love Like a Phoenix

After Aizen s bertrayal, and defeat peace was restored, however, for how long?. Komamura will be sent into a mission to hunt Hollows, but what will happen?, who will he meet in that mission?, a future ally for the shinigami?, a future enemy?, a future friend?, or perhaps something more?, Join Sajin Komamura in his journey to discover this. Komamura Sajin/OMC M/M Slash, Yaoi. Don´t like, don´t read.


Notes:

N I want to say beforehand that this is an M/M story so if you don´t like don´t read, okay? Also that ANY flaming will be erased and if you piss me off enough with flaming, it will be motive enough for blocking, saying that enjoy the story :) Beta'd by SophusMao. I don´t own Komamura (though I´d love to ;), or any of the characters of Bleach, or any of the terminology I may use of Final Fantasy, I merely take them on a creative stroll. I also think Komamura is largely forgotten and doesn´t receive enough love, that said; enjoy the story ;)

Bleach Dictionary:

Sötaichö= Head Captain, or Captain-Commander.

Taichö= Captain.

Fukutaichö= Lieutenant.

Zanpakutö= Is the main weapon of a Shinigami, their sword/s.

Shinigami= Soul Reaper/s are guardians of the souls who are going through the circle of transmigration. In ancient times, they were known as Balancers They purify Hollows who do evil in the World of the Living and ensure the safe crossing of souls - the Pluses (benign Souls) who have lost their way after death - by giving them a soul burial. Shinigami are the opposite of the Quincy.

Hollow= All Hollows were once Pluses which have lost their heart and become beings of pure instinct. The longer a Plus lingers in the Human World, the more its Chain of Fate erodes by growing small mouths that eat away at itself. This process, called Enroachment, is painful and starts out slow, but the final erosion is much more violent and finally the chain is completely gone and a hole opens in their chest where their heart used to be.At this point, the Soul's body disperses into spirit particles and then reforms nearby as a Hollow. The body usually forms first, followed by the mask. The Hollow's lost heart is its mask and their unique appearance as well as its special abilities. There are other ways to force Hollowification , such as prying open the hole in a Plus' chest by force.

Quincy= also called: "Monk of Destruction" in modern terms, were Human mediums, having the ability to detect the existence of Hollows. It all started when they began training to confront Hollows in order to defeat them, the same as Shinigami do. Most of the Quincy were destroyed by the Shinigami over 200 years ago in order to prevent the destruction of the world. Quincy are the polar opposite of Shinigami.

Shunpo: is a movement technique, which allows the user to move faster than the eye can follow. The focal point which determines the basis of this technique is speed. As speed is the main point of the technique, the method is best characterized by how fast one can get from point A to point B in the least amount of steps. Training and skill are what determines how fast a user of Shunpo can move; those of little skill in the technique or those who have not used it for an extended amount of time would obviously be out of practice, causing those individuals to be considerably slower, which requires the use of more steps to move the same distance and become winded in a shorter amount of time.

Chapter 1: Peace Broken

Chapter by PaleAngel_90

-Seiretei, Gotei 13 th. 1 st Division Headquarters: (Yamamoto Genryüsai's POV)

After Aizen's betrayal, and the Zanpakutö rebellion we had a brief of respite. Peaceful times, if you would. But that was cut short.

Recently we have received disturbing reports of Hollows appearing in massive numbers all over the human world, not only that, but humans going missing in large numbers too, and that is more than worrying.

"Chöjirö, call all the Taichö's and Fukutaichö's to an urgent meeting, and to get their men ready too" said a very serious Yamamoto.

"Of course, Eijisai-dono, right away. Anything else you need?" said Chöjirö, gracious as always.

"No, hurry Chöjirö, this is of the utmost importance" replied an unease Yamamoto.

"Right away, Eijisay-dono" replied a dutiful Chöjirö.

Seiretei, Gotei 13 th , 7 th Division Headquarters: Komamura Sajin POV.

After all that has happened this: was it months? Years? It is hard to tell which one, we were gifted with some peace, others would say that we have earned this respite with our hard work and merits, regardless we have a chance to heal, rebuild, to live, to find comfort and love in those close to us and willing to give it, some are fortunate to either have found that love or to already have it from before all of this swooped upon us.

However not all of us had that privilege. I, for one, do not have it. And I have wished it for many years. Now, it becomes hard to watch others having that kind of happiness and that at the end of the day I go to a cold bed alone and loveless. Sometimes, I do not even feel up to getting up from the bed, but regardless of my feelings about the matter there are expectations for me that I must fulfil, even if I wish I could have some time to myself away from all this, but, what can I say? Duty calls, and that call must be answered.

At least I do not have to wonder if Tetsuzaemon has romantic feelings for me. I overheard him talking about it with some of our men and other friends of his when I waited in the door of the tabern for an order I was asked to place for a gift I intended to give to my good friends Ukitake and Kyöraku who also are my fellow Taichö's. We got along well, they never judged me for my physical appearance, but for who I was. They had told me after what happened with Tösen, Ichimaru, and Aizen, that they had known for a while how I really looked and that they did not care. To them, what matters was that I am a good person "...that, in the end is all that matters..." Ukitake had said with a warm smile. I have come to the conclusion that you cannot dislike Ukitake, it is impossible. He is the best man I have ever met, with the exception of Yamamoto, of course...

"With your permission, Taichö" said Tetsuzaemon interrupting my musings.

"Enter, Tetsuzaemon" I answered.

"Did I interrupt something, Taichö?" Tetsuzaemon said with evident curiosity.

"Not at all, I was merely pondering" I answered.

"About what if I may ask?"

"Nothing you should be worried about, I simply was distracted" I answered absentmindedly, distracted with the paperwork I had in front of me.

"Oh, okay Taichö. Would it be alright if I asked you something?"

"Of what nature? What do you want to ask me?" I questioned warily, after Tösen's betrayal people has been asking me questions about if Tösen and I were involved intimately. I had to do a public speech to deny this and many more things that people spread about me. I found that both annoying and irritating. Though I preferred to get that over with and set things crystal clear and straight. That yes, I am homosexual, but no, I was not involved with Tösen, or knew anything about what him, Ichimaru, or Aizen's had planned to do.

"I don´t believe in rumours, but... Do you have any feelings for me? Or anything of that sort?..." Poor Tetsuzaemon looked like he was about to faint how nervous he looked, and for him to be nervous was rare, very rare.

"No, Tetsuzaemon, I am fond of you considering how good of a friend you are, but I have no romantic feelings for you. No offence, my friend, but you are not my type neither am I yours. I know for sure your attentions in that matter lie elsewhere, so, no my friend, you can be sure of that" I said looking directly to his eyes and very seriously.

"Alright, Taichö, do you need help with anything?" There was relief in his voice. I do not know if it was from knowing that he was a good friend or that I was not attracted to him, not that it mattered to me, then determination and duty coloured his features and voice.

"Not with anything that I know of..." I answered pensively.

"Well, I´ll be in my desk if you need..." A Hell Butterfly flew in and hovered before me, followed by another who flew to Tetsuzaemon.

"To all Taichö's and Fukutaichö's, an emergency meeting has been called, please report to 1st Division headquarters the meeting starts in 45 minutes. Be on time" the message came from Fukutaichö Chöjirö Sasakibe, strange... What could have happened..?

"Tetsuzaemon, finish the report you have half done and get ready for the meeting" I said to him, already wondering what this might be about...

"Yes, Taichö, I'm almost done. How about you?" Tetsuzaemon asked fully focused in his report, not even looking up from it.

"I just finished my report, and one of our Division requisition reports, I will organize the reports while you finish yours. We have plenty of time, there is no need to rush" I answered to him while I distracted myself organizing the reports I had already finished. A few minutes later Tetsuzaemon made a self-satisfied sound, catching my attention.

"Done, Taichö, anything we need to get before we leave to the meeting?" Tetsuzaemon said while quickly organizing all the paperwork he had finished.

"Nothing that I know of, the message did not say anything but to be there in time. We should be going." I said getting up from my desk and moving towards the exit of our office and into the main wing of the office area of the 7th Division headquarters.

"Okay, can't help but wonder about what this meeting is about" He mirrored my own thoughts.

"I am wondering that also. I have noticed that Yamamoto-dono has been uneasy these last few days. I wonder if this meeting has something to do with that" It was worrying how uneasy Yamamoto-sama looked these days, to the point where Unohana Taichö has asked him to take some time off-duty and relax.

"Well, no point in daydreaming, I guess we'll find out when we're at the meeting" Said Tetsuzaemon while we got out of our Division headquarters and got ready to use Shunpo to get to the 1st Division headquarters.
