Ichigo walked to the Urahara shop since he had gotten his lead on Rukia thanks to Matsumoto.

"So that's where she's been this whole time!" Ichigo thought to himself, "why didn't I think of that a long time ago!"

Ichigo had been walking down the street when Keigo and Mizuiro had spotted him from the crowd.

"Hey, it's Ichigo!" yelled Keigo, "where you off to?"

"Just leave him alone," Mizuiro said calmly, "Ichigo probably has better things to do besides talk to you."

"Hey what's your problem?" Keigo had directed the volume of his voice to Mizuiro.

"Speaking of that," Mizuiro thought out loud, "what am I doing here with you, anyway?"

"Hey Mizuiro you're soo mean!" Keigo soon had tears in his eyes that Mizuiro obviously didn't care for.

"Okay, bye Ichigo!" Keigo had once again directed his voice in Ichigo's direction but he was gone, "wonder where he went to? Hey, wait up for me, Mizuiro!"

Ichigo had panicked when he heard Keigo and knew that he would ask what he was up to. Ichigo was still too embarrassed to tell any of his friends or family anything until he had solved and felt comfortable with the situation. He was sure glad that Mizuiro had distracted him and averted his attention elsewhere, giving Ichigo time to make his escape.

Ichigo had finally reached the Urahara shop and knocked at the door. Ginta had opened the door, with Ururu close behind him making sure he wasn't causing trouble to another customer.

"Yeah? What do you want!" Ginta was grumpy because Tessai had punished him earlier.

"Is Rukia here? Rukia Kuchiki?" Ichigo demanded.

"Ah, you're looking for Rukia then are you?" a voice came out behind Ururu and up to the door. It was Urahara.

"Yeah," Ichigo said nervously, "do you know where she is? I mean which room?"

"She's not here anymore," said Urahara with a smile, " she went back to the Soul Society to get a special abortion."

"A 'special abortion'?" Ichigo had thought it was already too late to do anything seeing as Rukia was terminating the pregnancy. "Is she in the Soul Society then?" Ichigo pleaded with Urahara.

"Yeah," said Urahara, "I suggest you hurry if you still want to have it."

Just as Ichigo was about to turn around either to go back home or to the Soul Society, he heard another voice, this time feminine, but not like Ururu's because this had sounded like a grown woman.

"She's not in the Soul Society, I don't know what Urahara is talking about." Just then, Yoruichi came out and grabbed Urahara by the ear dragging him inside. "Urahara has decided to become a prankster these days."

Ichigo came in and took off his shoes as he waited for Tessai to bring some tea.

"So where is she, Yoruichi?" Ichigo became nervous again.

"She's in the next room, but I want you to relax before you see her," Yoruichi informed, "she really doesn't need stress and I don't want you going in there causing a commotion."

" I wouldn't cause stress to those that are like that!" Ichigo retorted," So when is she due?"

"Any time now actually. We've been keeping a close eye on her." Yoruichi took a sip of tea. "Apparently you thought soul reapers couldn't get pregnant, so naïve."

"Well, you can't blame me because I didn't think that would happen and wouldn't it only be a gigai instead of the actual person?" Ichigo had became curious.

"Well first of all Ichigo," Yoruichi stated in a calm voice, "your dad is a soul reaper and had three children, and second of all, the soul is attached to the gigai so whatever happens to the gigai happens to the soul as well."

Ichigo knew he wouldn't win the argument so he sipped the rest of his tea.

"May I go see Rukia now?" Ichigo asked.

"Wait, how much do you love her Ichigo?" Yoruichi was now getting curious.

"I just know I care for her, ever since she saved my family's and my life. I've always wanted to thank her and I had wanted to be with her for eternity." Ichigo didn't hesitate.

"Are you willing to marry her then, Ichigo Kurosaki?" Yoruichi took on a more serious tone.

"Of course! She's my life! No one would understand how much she means to me!" Ichigo responded.

Yoruichi had gotten up to another room and opened the door. She spoke some hushed words in the door and soon she came back out again.

"Well," Yoruichi said, "go see her."

Ichigo had gotten up from his seat and had gulped loudly, loudly from where he was as now stiffened with nervousness. He approached the door…

Well, yeah I like to end on suspenseful scenes so there will be more to come! Like in the anime, To Be Continued….
