I was reading again some bleach chapters tha I've got here in my computer, and after watching the last bleach movie (the one about two people mastering Hyourinmaru), I've got myself to wonder, How does the contract of a Shinigami and a Zanpakutou works?

We've seen in the series that a Zanpakutou is born from the shinigami Soul, see the immediate appearence of Zangetsu when Ichigo got his powers for the first time. And then when he fought Kenpachi, his travel to his Inner World and finding out the zangetsu leaves there, inside ichigo. We see Zangetsu saying that if ichigo looses to Kenpachi is better for him to have Asoichi, the nameless soul cutter ( http://www.onemanga.com/Bleach/111/05/ ). And then we see him earning Zangetsu's power and beating Kenpachi.

Later on, I will show Tousen Kaname, former Captain of the 9th Division, we learned on a particular part of the manga, the tousen Zanpakutou wasn't born with him, but it belongs to another person, his dead friend was the previous owner of tousen Zanpakutou ( see http://www.onemanga.com/Bleach/148/09/ ) . And for revenging her he took her zanpakutou off her grave and swore that he would bring justice to the world. So, now we see someone taking another person zanpakutou for himself, and later on achieving Bankai with it. So, that means tha Tousen got the Zanpakutou, made a contract with it and became it's new owner.

Now, on the movie, we see Hitsugaya making a contract with Hyourinmaru, and, at the same time, his friend makes too. So that means, two people took Hyorinmaru, it wasn't born with them, like Zangetsu. Later on the movie we see the chamber 46 saying that they already knew Hyourinmaru's power, and the knew it was strong, and that only one man should have it, by the law. So, my guess here is, Hyourinmaru was created in the soul of someone, and after this someone dies, it goes looking for new owners, and binding with them by contract, and goes on eternally.

Now, here goes my theory: Every one knows that Yoruichi was the 2nd division captain, and we know also that every captain (aside of kenpachi) has a Bankai. So we know, Yoruichi had a Zanpakutou. But, what happened to it? Reading again Yoruichi and Soi Fong fight, I got something interesting. Suzumebachi (Soi Fong Zanpakutou) was Yoruichi's Zanpakutou. And she left it behind when she went away with Urahara. To not say that I'm crazy, look at this page of the fight ( http://www.onemanga.com/Bleach/158/03/ ) . Soi Fong clearly says "The ability that you were never able to master " . So, you see, Yoruichi left Soi Fong behind, she got mad, saw her zanpakutou there alone, took it, told that it was left behind and made a contract with it, mastering it, and achieving BanKai, and then Becomig the new Captain.
That's my theory. It would explain Youruichi lack of zanpakutou, and kind of make it easier to understand.

So, what do you think about it? (sorry for being too long!)
