Disclaimer: Don't own HP or Bleach.

I know I shouldn't be starting another but I got the idea after my HPBleach chapter in More Worlds. I haven't seen past Aizen and co being revealed as the bad guys in the anime and this is going to be set after the war with them, so what I know of those events is mainly from other fics and stuff. So consider this AU.

Pairings undecided.

Chapter 1

Harry watched the waves as they crashed against the cliffs, this was what he'd needed, a real holiday away from the mess his life had become. Hades had been right about Greece and the Mediterranean when it came to vacation spots, it was beautiful and a far cry from Britain's weather. It didn't stop the nightmares or memories but it did help. He sipped his lemonade and considered gong for a swim to clear his mind.

Defeating Tom was meant to be the end of it but thanks to Dumbledore it had only been the beginning. If only he hadn't hidden the Resurrection Stone inside the snitch everything would have been fine. Then again, the man had planned on the Elder Wand being buried with him and Masterless. Instead Harry had held the allegiance of all three while he walked through the forest to his death, had they been why he had come back? Or had Dumbledore been right about it being his blood in Tom that allowed for that to happen? His passing out for two weeks post battle hadn't raised any questions, he'd been exhausted from a year on the run, time in the Malfoy's dungeon and then the battle. He hadn't contradicted that assumption when he woke, he'd learnt his lesson well about telling them anything.

He wasn't the Master of Death, he was Death. It had freaked him out at first but now he just accepted it. He now had what Tom had always wanted, immortality, he was literally un-killable. How did you kill Death? The various Gods of Death were avatars of his power… despite his not even being born when they were created, that had him a little concerned about his future and where or when he may travel to. Several had presented themselves to him over the years and he left them alone to do their jobs. He hadn't met them all yet but it wasn't like he was rushed for time.

He'd cut off ties with the British Wizarding World within two months of the battle, unable to take the assumptions, the demands… he was not going to marry Ginny and have a dozen kids, he was pretty sure he couldn't even have children anymore. And Ginny…shudder, so not happening. He was not tying himself to a fangirl for the rest of her life and living under glamour's to fake aging. He'd never looked twice at her and then suddenly in sixth year he'd really liked her, looking back he suspected potions or simple desperation to experience something normal before going off to die, he wasn't sure which. He also had no desire to return to school or become an Auror. So, he'd packed his bags and left, a decision made easier when Andromeda refused him even visitation with his Godson, except Remus and Tonks hadn't made it official so he had no legal rights there. Arawn was watching over things there for him, after all Andromeda was not a young woman anymore.

He'd done some travelling before settling down in a Greek villa right on the coast. He loved the climate, especially when compared to England and Scotland. He spent his time wandering the countryside or the small village nearby where he sold the fruits of his garden every second Friday. Occasionally one of the various death gods stopped by for his help or just to introduce themselves but for the most part he was enjoying the quiet life. He definitely wasn't the typical nineteen-year-old but then again, he'd never been normal, had he?

Ichigo offered Rukia his badge and she took it slowly, obviously torn. "Not like I need it anymore."

"I'm sorry," she whispered, it wasn't fair, he didn't deserve this.

"It's not your fault, I choose to learn and use the Final Getsuga Tenshō," he tried to shrug it off, not wanting to make her sadder. There was nothing they could do to change things now. "I don't regret anything," he promised as he noticed her leg beginning to fade from his sight. "Not like you can't borrow a Gigai from Geta-boshi and visit."

Rukia mustered a watery smile. "You're a good friend Ichigo. I'm disappearing, aren't i?"

"Yeah," he admitted. "Say goodbye to everyone else for me?"

"Of course, Ichigo. We'll miss…you." She sighed as she realised he was no longer looking at her, but through her. "Goodbye." She left, unable to stay when it was obvious her friend had lost the last of his power.

Ichigo blinked as she vanished mid-sentence. He stared where she had been, guessing she was still there but his voice was locked in his throat. He hadn't expected it to hurt this much. Hadn't he always wanted to be normal? "Goodbye Rukia." He finally forced out, not sure if she was still there or not. He grabbed his school bag and walked away.

Harry knelt on the ground, hands buried in the soil as he carefully planted a row of Lilies in honour of his Mother. It may have been a chore at his Aunt's, but he had come to love gardening over the years, not that he had let her know that. Here in his own home he could grow what he wished and he had a good mix of fruits, vegetables and flowers. There was a flicker of cold and he looked up to see a beautiful young woman with long dark brown hair and soft green eyes.

"Greetings My Lord." She curtsied and he smiled, wiping the soil off his hands as he stood.

"Hel." He clasped her hands and kissed her cheek, she was his favourite. When they had met half of her body had been had been blue and crone-ish. He had fixed that immediately, knowing it was a curse. "How have you been?" He'd given up asking her to use his name.

"Well My Lord. I have come to you on behalf of several of my siblings."

"There's a problem?" he led her inside the villa and offered her some fruit as they sat on the couches.

"What do you know of the Japanese system?" she asked as she sat daintily. Her life had changed so much since her Lord Death had ascended. No longer was she shunned by Asgard for her looks and duties. Her father, Loki, had even been aided by Death in regaining his sense and sanity to where he was once again a productive member of their society. And she had her brothers back, there was nothing she would not do for Death because of that.

"It's one I haven't interacted with yet. I know there are many gods worshipped. It doesn't just have a 'Heaven' and 'Hell', there are layers to the afterlife. I remember seeing the name Izanami on the list…"

"You are correct, there is a heaven and hell but between them there is Soul Society, the Soul Kings Palace and Hueco Mundo. The last is the closest to hell in a way as it is where what they term Hollows reside. Hollows are a race of creatures which are born from Human souls who, for various reasons, do not cross over to Soul Society after their death and stay in the Human World for too long. They are corrupt spirits with supernatural powers which devour the souls of both living and deceased Humans. Hollows settle in Hueco Mundo, but can cross over to the Human World and Soul Society."

"Okay I have the urge to remove that issue immediately," Harry muttered and she nodded.

"Deceased human souls are called Pluses. Shinigami are the 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 who have lost their way after death - by giving them a soul burial. They live in Soul Society along with the souls they have sent on. Shinigami and these souls can be killed, when they die they are reincarnated on Earth with no memories of their previous lives. Soul Society is much like Feudal Japan once was, but with technology. It is further divided into two, the Rukongai is divided into 320 districts, each numbered in descending order on how far they are from the centre; this results in the higher-numbered, and farther, districts decaying into slums. The Seireitei is a massive circular shiro with four main entrances. The primary residents of the Seireitei are the Shinigami, the families of the nobility, and, high ranking officials such as those of Central 46. Theoretically they are ruled by the Soul King but the running of Soul Society is left to the Central 46, who are the judiciary, and Nobles."

"So as corrupt as the Wizengamot?"

"Perhaps. It is known that the Central 46 were killed just before the beginning of the war that just ended."

"The war is why you are involving me I assume?"

"Correct My Lord. One of the Shinigami Captains, Sōsuke Aizen, along with another two Captains, Ichimaru Gin and Tōsen Kaname, orchestrated events within Soul Society in order to gain possession of Hōgyoku, a small, bluish-purple orb composed of a unique substance thought to have been capable of dissolving the boundaries between Shinigami and Hollow, allowing one race to attain the powers of the other. He experimented on his fellow Shinigami, leading to a group being exiled, centuries ago. He sought to overthrow the Soul King with an army lead by Arrancar, Hollows with Shinigami like powers. In the end, he was stopped by one of the exiled Shinigami sealing him…and a human boy who had been given Shinigami powers. Aizen is now imprisoned as they could not kill him and the Soul King has done nothing."

Harry closed his eyes and took deep breaths in order to not accidentally blow something up. "How old?"

"My Lord?" she could feel his rage but knew he would never harm one of his.

"The boy, how old?"

"What is called a teenager today, I believe somewhere around the age you faced the tournament or the loss of your Godfather."

Of course he was, that was how people used kids, get them before their old enough to question why it is being left to a child. "He survived though."

"Yes, I believe he has returned to the Living World and his education, a place called Karakura Town in Japan. His name is Kurosaki Ichigo."

"I better pack then."

"You will intervene personally?"

"I want to run reconnaissance before I act, but yes." Harry stood and with a wave of his hand the things he wanted began packing themselves. "Thank you for bringing this to my attention Hel."

"It was my pleasure." She stood, curtsied again, and then vanished.

It didn't take long to pack and he used the internet to find a place to live in Karakura Town in western Tokyo. It would be easier to find information if he lived close to the boy and could monitor him.

Three days later a taxi pulled up in front of a small house near Tsubakidai Park. Harry paid the fare and entered his new home, unpacking easily with magic. He could feel the power in the air of the town, something that was very odd but could explain why the place seemed to teem with 'supernatural' activity. He began looking into the Kurosaki family and any who seemed to know the son, gathering information. He did not like what he saw.
