    Plot: One might wonder how such a great thing like the Soul Society functions with little problems. At least as far as little problems go for a city like place. For the most part peace reigns and roams free. It is a place to be where you may walk unarmed without fear, and you know you are protected at all times. Do not get lost in this illusion though. Peace is a lie, as shown time and time again. The illusion of peace is cast upon those affected by war after it ends, but it never lasts. Our prayers, our desires and wants are never granted. We may beg and plead, but nobody is listening. Even the great Soul Society is a place where this illusion may be cast. If anything such a place is the most vulnerable as we are about to see…

    For over a thousand years the Captain-Commander ruled over the Gotei 13 with honesty, a level head, and a strong spirit. He lead his men into battle without fear and with great skill. He was a master tactician if not anything else. Loved and feared by the Captains, and cheered for by those he protected, he drove his sword through any who should seek to bring harm to his beloved Soul Society. All thought he could do no wrong, but it was he who had cast this illusion of peace upon all. He who sought to lure all into a false sense of security, and this shame haunted and ate him for as long as he could remember.

    Upon a meeting of all Divisions he released his horrible secret to all realizing that he could not hold this information from them. He pleaded for mercy and for forgiveness. He said that he had no choice, that it was needed to ensure the peace that they relished in. The Captains and their squads did not see it as such though. After learning that their beloved Captain-Commander had been leaking their secrets, their strengths and weaknesses to the Arrancar ties became thin and the air was tense at all times now. The Captains found themselves questioning other Captains, bringing up things from hundreds of years ago, or calling them out on the slightest of slipups. The Squads found themselves questioning each other and their captains. Nobody trusted anybody. Everybody went from friend, brother, sister, family to enemy, traitor, and liar in a matter of minuets. Things were never the same. This was kept up for about one hundred years before anybody actually did anything.

    It started with the 11th Division. The Captain spoke out his disliking of the Captain-Commander and how he felt all have betrayed the Soul Society, it spread to the 2nd Division claiming that the 11th Division was corrupt in it’s ways by forsaking the other arts of the Shinigami. The 6th Division retorted by pointing out the fact that they relied of stealth to secretly kill, while a Shinigami should do it facing their opponent with honor. Soon all of the Gotei 13 were at each other’s throats. No one was safe and Civil War broke out. The Soul Society their battle ground it seemed Bankais and Shikais ruled the place. The Captain-Commander was the first to fall for his treachery, this much the rest of the Captains could agree upon. They killed him quickly and then turned upon each other, each wanting to rule and each not trusting the other. Some Captains even turned upon their own squads killing their lieutenants and their seated officers. Nobody was safe, nobody. Members of the 4th Division even joined in the fighting, killing each other and killing whoever they could.

    Soul Society was set ablaze, figuratively and literally. Meanwhile, the Arrancar, with their new information, were preparing to attack. They gathered what Hollow and Arrancar they could as they prepared to leave. They were eager to finally kill and be rid of the Shinigami. They would have their victory and bathe in the blood of their fallen foes. The Captain-Commander though was not so stupid as to allow them to do this. He had made earlier arrangements that should he die the Superhumans and the Bountos would defend the Soul Society with his Shinigami. They lived up to this and were allowed access into the Soul Society where they waited for the attack. The Shinigami were severely weakened at this point having lost their Captain-Commander and three other Captains, putting them down to only nine captains.

    It was not long before the cloak of night fell, and the Arrancar dropped upon the Shinigami. The Bounto surprised them with their dolls, and the Superhumans cut off their only exit. As stated before, peace is an illusion and even though the Shinigami seemed peaceful for this time attacks against each other still went on. They merely pinned the blame on the Arrancar. After years of fighting the Arrancar’s forces were beaten and they were forced back to their home. The Shinigami were virtually gone, and the Bountos and Superhumans were looking for more. The Bountos wanted to chance the Arrancar and finish what they had started, the Superhumans did not wish to. They had learned the reason the Soul Society was in a state of panic. They wanted nothing to do with the Shinigami, believing that their entire race were liars and traitors. The Shinigami tried to convince them otherwise, but they would not listen. The Shinigami want peace restored and they have ceased fighting amongst each other. The diverse feelings and desires led to their ties being weakened severely to the point where the slightest thing could set them off.

    All the races are set on edge now. The Vizards having sat back and watched from afar, and the Quincy wanting nothing to do with the Soul Society or the Arrancar, though they wished that each would kill each other. Everything is on thin ice and the slightly wrong movement could throw everyone into a state of war. Even now, a thousand years later with new leaders, new followers, new thoughts, beliefs, ideas, and desires. The ground they all walk on is shaky and threatens to break at any moment. What will happen? Will war reign over all, or will the illusion of peace take over for a short while?

    Our story will start with the first arc.

    Prologue :: Arc 1



    Basically, start the RP In the middle of a huge battle. The only "pre-story" will be how the battle began. From there, we let the people RPing start the initial plotline. We will have a "Grace" period where no deaths can occur for two weeks as to allow people to make the characters they want to RP without worry in the battle. This will allow people to decide the plotline themselves in this very decisive war. The war will end after the two weeks, and we'll skip forward a year, allowing for all the changes that may or may not have occured, then begin the real RPing from then on.

    ARRANCAR SIDE

    Blood rained from the sky, a crimson orgy falling upon the ground of the Seireitei. One side, the forces of Las Noches, the other, the Shinigami. Several laid upon the floor, their life being stripped from them in their prime. The war between the Shinigami and Arrancar was approaching a devastating end. Both sides had shared huge losses, the final day was ever so close. But why did this happen? The best place to start would have been... The beginning.

    It was but several years ago, in a time of peace. But alas, even if the surface is calm, the depth's beneath are often shrouded in mystery. This was but a truth that even those who had lived for centuaries couldn't see. This was the time where Shinigamification was thriving in Heuco Mundo, the forces of Arrancar rising in a horrifying degree. With each passing day, their numbers becoming more and more intimidating, and their individuals becoming more intelligent. It was but the most powerful, most intellectual of these newly born creatures that was the mastermind. An Arrancar named Shinzukei. He himself was the embodiment of fear, hatred, anger and dispair. If the Hollow's didn't see him as their leader, they feared for their lives. Days continued to pass, and he himself began plotting the downfall of the Shinigami.

    Yet, Seireitei was still under the greatest illusion of all. The illusion that things would forever be peaceful, happy and relaxed. They let their guard down. Little did they know that there was already Hollow influence in the Seireitei, a single Arrancar with a minute mask. The nearly inivisbile fragment along with the relaxed nature allowed for this one to report back all his findings, Shizukei figuring out their weaknesses, their strengths, and how to counter them. After nearly a year, with the help of a certain Arrancar, a civil war broke out, and it was seen as the right time to attack.

    They appeared in all area's. Rukongai was the first to fall, many spirits being devoured, increasing the already incredible power of the new Arrancar army. It was on this same day that they broke into Seireitei. In the first day, over seventy-five percent of the Soul Society had fallen to their power. While Arrancar losses were high, they were nothing on the Shinigami's. Only the strongest officers survived, however, luck was on their side. Most of the Captains were still alive, nearly all the Lieutenants, and several seated officers. This day was from then on refered to as "The Culling".

    Each day the war would continue, more losses appearing upon either side. By this, the final day, the antagonist which had started this war was assumed dead, completely disappearing from the battle alltogether. The Vizard had appeared to the assistance of the Shinigami, as they united together for a final stand. The battle was approaching its end, but how will it finish? Will the Arrancar take over Soul Society, or will the Shinigami wipe them out? Decide yourself, it's down to you now.

    ((This is a semi-entirely new storyline, pretty much ignoring the first idea which I just put together. Feel free to edit, it's short, and could use more work. Took about 10-15 minutes to put together, give views, add stuff for a full 'Shinigami' side. This is simply how the Arrancar saw it, and I thought it would be mildly amusing. I pretty much ignored the idea of the Shinigami civil war here... That will be covered in the Shinigami side, seeing as this mostly covers how the Shini vs Arran war started... Yeah... Cba now... Just gonna stop typing.))

    Shinigami Side

    The fall of the Shinigami started with the Civil War. It was the first of its kind. Captains were cloaked in doubt. They didn’t trust anybody, including their lieutenants. Soul Society was in a chaos, and no one could stop it. The Captain-Commander was killed for treason. Shinigami were being slaughtered by their own kind, even people they trusted. Captains were killing subordinates, and even their own lieutenants. Anybody that tried to restore order was killed. No one was trusted. Then it happened. The Arrancars invaded the Soul Society. If everything was in chaos before, than the Soul Society had become a second hell. More shinigami’s were killed. The nine remaining Captains put aside their hatred and together fought against the Arrancar invasion. Both sides had many loses, but things were looking bad for the Shinigami, for their losses were much greater than the Arrancar’s for the Shinigami, for they had put a hold on the recent civil war so that they could deal with the invasion. The Shinigami were getting desperate. They were losing the war by a long shot, and if they didn’t find a way to hold back the Arrancar, they would lose this war in a matter of years.

    Even with the help of the Superhumans and Bounts, the Shinigami had trouble holding back the Arrancar. While the Captains and the majority of the Shinigami were fighting the Arrancar, the civil war that was supposed to be on hold, continued silently in the background. The war continued for many more years, before the three-way alliance pushed back the Arrancars. The Shinigami were able to convince the Bounts that now wasn’t the time to chase the Arrancars. Unfortunately, the Shinigami were not able to convince the Superhumans that what they found out was not true. This let the ties between the three races weak. During the war the Shinigami lost their remaining Captains and lieutenants. The Shinigami were too tired after the war with the Arrancar to continue their civil war and called a truce. The Shinigami chose a new leader. His name was Shin from the Yamashina family. He decided that the Soul Society was no longer safe in Japan and moved it to France. Many of the Shinigami followed Shin. Within just a few short years the Soul Society was rebuilt in France. A new reign has started, and peace once again starts to settle in the Soul Society. Will the Shinigami be able to trust their new Captain-Commander? Will Shin betray the Shinigami like the Captain-Commander before him? Will the ties between the Vizards, Shinigami, Quincy, Bounts, and Superhumans be restored, or will it continue to weaken? Only time will tell. And who knows how much time is left for the five races to begin with.
