The Escape

My name is Zenzo Rose, I was always different from the others, I'm a hollow, I was neither human or faunus.

I was always quiet, I did as told which meant it was done excellently which made my orphanage caretakers happy, especially Mrs. Eina, she is a human and she is nice to everyone, even though she knew what I was; in her own worlds, she said that I was the "mature" one amongst all the others.

Where are my parents? They're dead, I never knew them and I wish I did; later on in life, I was adopted by a woman called Summer Rose, I had two sisters that were half sisters, Ruby Rose my younger one and Yang Xia Long my elder one, my adopted father was a man named, Tai Xia Long.

Everything was fine until Summer went on a mission and never came back but the surprising thing was she was also never found; Raven Branwen, my adopted stepmother, left for the tribe and my adopted uncle, Qrow Branwen, started drinking and hardly comes around to see us.

A few weeks later, Tai had started a stress relieving exercise, taking his anger out on me, punching, kicking, stabbing and cutting me until he was satisfied, sooner he let Yang join in because it was "training" he said; they'd insult me, beat me, make me do all the chores and work everyday, my hollow powers would kick in to fix my wounds, sometimes Ruby or Zwei would bring me food when Tai didn't, when I asked if I could train he'd deny and if he was feeling "happy" he'd use me as the punching bag for Yang, Ruby wouldn't hit me whenever Tai told her to, when she didn't do it and I was the one to pay the price, one day he did it, he broke my Hollow skull in half and to this day I can't find it.

But I can't feel pain, the only feeling and emotion I know is emptiness.

Today is no different, Zenzo is 11 and was washing the dishes, Yang had come in with a few plates that she dropped on the floor intentionally, then blaming it on him.

"Dad! Zenzo broke the plates!!!" Yang yelled with a grin.

"What?!" Tai exclaimed marching into the kitchen, slapping Zenzo hard enough to snap a normal person's neck.

"I did no such thing" Zenzo said receiving another slap.

"Don't talk back young man!" Tai said.

"Yes sir" Zenzo said proceeding to clean the mess, while the two just went back to what they were doing.

"When are his parents ever coming for him" Yang spat.

"It's either he doesn't have any, doesn't know them or I bet they just threw him out because he's a disgrace" Tai said as Yang laughs, Zenzo continues to as a tear rolls down his cheek.

"What is this? Is this what they call a tear? Such a magnificent thing, but I must leave, the plan must be followed to standard" Zenzo said as Ruby walks in holding her teddy.

"Big bwother, did Ywang do tis?" Ruby asked as Zenzo just continues cleaning.

"Maybe, the plan can be moved to another day" Zenzo thought as he finishes cleaning up, then ruffling Ruby's hair.

"Be strong little rose" Zenzo said as Ruby giggles, just the Tai walks in to see such, anger boiling he punches Zenzo in the face causing the boy to let go and Ruby gasp.

"Don't touch my child, I don't want her catching any disease or failure from a degenerate disgrace!" Tai exclaimed kicking Zenzo multiple times.

Later that night.......

Just as Tai had gone to bed, Zenzo had taken the only things he had, a worn out blue shirt, black shorts, worn out red shoes, a brush, toothpaste, a bar of soap and a necklace he'd got for his 8th birthday from Summer and Ruby.

Sneaking into Ruby and Yang's room, kissing Ruby's forehead as she smiles and stirs in her sleep, quickly and quietly he exits the room through the window, he lands and runs into the woods unknown to him that a being saw him.........Zwei.

Barking for him to come back.

Next day.......

Tai was whipping up breakfast for him, the girls and Zwei, while doing so they hadn't seen their dog anywhere since the start of the day.

"Ruby, go get Zwei, he's probably in the disgraces' room" Tai said as Ruby looked sad.

"O-Okay daddy" Ruby said going upstairs, as the door opens to reveal Summer which shocked Tai and Yang.

"Mommy! I missed you!" Yang exclaimed running to Summer, who picked her up and kissed her forehead.

"Welcome babe, where have you been for so long" Tai said kissing Summer's cheek, just then Ruby runs downstairs crying with a piece of paper in her hand.

"Ruby what's wrong?" Summer asked putting Yang down.

"B-B-Big b-b-b-b-bwother i-i-is g-g-gwone" Ruby cried.

"Ruby we can't hear you" Tai said as Zwei starts barking, Yang goes to check.

"Lemme see that" Summer said as Ruby gave her the letter, the woman's face pales as she reads the note.

Dear Family,

The emptiness within my heart is one that I can seem to understand, like the unfilled hole where my sternum doesn't exist.
I was born different from others, I was a hollow, a spirit of the dead you could all see but not help, there is no greater pain than the emptiness I have been feeling within this thing you call a heart.
Mother Summer and Sister Ruby, I deeply apologize if I have hurt you in any way, shape or form, you must keep on moving.

And as for Tai and Yang, I'll be sure to see that you two enter hell and are specially punished for your crimes; all the times you made me a slave, beat me, cut me, stabbed me and broke my Hollow skull.
The one thing I'll always have to remember you by was when you said my parents threw me away like I was nothing but a disgrace.

Love Zenzo.

No one said a thing, Yang came down and said he'd gone, but when Tai wanted to search Summer reacted.

"Stay away from MY child! He's gone because of the two of you! He just wanted someone to love him! He was different because he was unique in his own way! He lost his parents because they were trying to keep him from a very dangerous person!" Summer said as Tai and Yang shook.

"Mommy, will big bwother come back home?" Ruby asked as Summer picks her up and kisses her forehead.

"Don't worry, he'll be back I'm sure of it" Summer said.

"Please, we can fix this" Tai said.

"Just leave it be, I'll find him myself after some rest" Summer said walking past the two Xia Long, going to Zenzo's room and sitting on the bed, seeing that the bed was worn out, but it was manageable.

"Please be safe my child" Summer said.

Meanwhile......

Zenzo was walking around in the forest, looking for a way to a better place only for Grimm Beowulf to attack him, but just as they attack a man appears to save him; he stood there astonished at the man as he drove every Beowulf away from just his presence.

"You seem far from home child" The man said.

"I ran away, my father and sister are nothing but soulless and abusive" Zenzo said with an emotionless face, but the man could see deep into his soul the emptiness and pain.

"How about I replace them?" He asked.

"Really?" Zenzo asked.

"Yes, I'll adopt and train you to be the strongest huntsman there is" He said.

Boom! Shocker, I made Aizen a good guy in this book.

"Okay, I accept your offer" Zenzo said.

"My name is Aizen, Aizen Sōsuke" Aizen said.

"I'm Zenzo, Zenzo Rose" Zenzo said.

"He reminds me of you Ulquiorra" Aizen thought with a fatherly smile.
