It was a somewhat big turnout for Urahara's birthday. He was known quite well in
the town. He and Isshin went out around noon to run some errands and everyone
got ready. The kids did the decorations while Tessai and Rebecca started the Bar-b-
que grill. The only one to complain was Karin.
"Why do we have to decorate?" She asked her brother.
"A few reasons," Ichigo said.
"One, because it's fun and two because Urahara did a lot for us. You know you like it"
He added with a smile.
"Quite a few people brought good sides and Ichigo put Keigo in charge of keeping
Kon away.
Around 1:30 Rukia and Rengi arrived along with Bess, Nan, Nat, Dan and Ameil. A
big surprise was when Yoruichi arrived with her Goddaughter. Hiyori was happy to
see Shinji who also came from Soul Society.
Urahara was sure surprised when he got there. Everyone had a good time and
Urahara looked like that was the first time he had fun since Jinta's death. He also got
a lot of good gifts and loved the gift Ururu had given him. All in all the day was a lot
of fun and it was a shame to see everyone leave.
