Ch. 4
Three days later
Aizen purred as he was curled up on Ichigo's bed in a sunbeam when he heard Ichigo being attacked by her father as she came in the door, He got up and stretched comfortably before jumping off the bed and heading out the door to greet Ichigo. He walked down the steps and wandered into the front hall where Ichigo's voice was, he paused when he noticed the shingami standing next to her but walked over and rubbed against her ankles as he acted like a real kitten that wanted Attention.
Ichigo looked down and smiled as she picked him up and placed him on her shoulder, the shingami looked at the kitten in surprise then at Ichigo who just led them to her room before explaining about the kitten. Rukia then asked what the Kitten's name was and Ichigo grinned evilly then said in her male voice "I named him Sousuke because of his brown eyes...that and to piss off Aizen if he finds out about my kitten."
Aizen mewled in amusement as he rubbed his head against Ichigo's cheek then curled around her neck with a loud purr, he listened to why the Shingami were there and as soon as he heard the word "Bounts", his head popped up as he let out a worried meow. He remembered when the Bounts had first appeared in soul society and how strong they were, he prayed that Ichigo would remain safe if she fought with the Bounts as he listened to the conversation which had changed on what was going on in Soul Society. Aizen was amused by some of the things that were being said when he noticed Renji looking at him, he playfully hissed as Renji made to pet him and batted at the hand with a paw. Renji chuckled and said "Cute little bugger..."
Ichigo grinned and said "You have no idea..."
Aizen blushed under his fur but purred as Ichigo reached up and scratched behind his ears, Renji and the others then excused themselves to head to the places they were staying at while Yuzu called Ichigo down to supper. Ichigo walked her friends to the door then closed it behind them as she headed into the kitchen; she placed Aizen in front of his food dish that was filled with shredded chicken causing the kitten to meow happily as he dug in. Ichigo smiled at Yuzu and said "Thanks for dinner Yuzu..."
Meanwhile...
Yamamoto growled as he tried to figure out a way to kill Ichigo without it being traced back to him, he knew Soi Fon wouldn't do it because Yoruichi but perhaps...another Squad 2 member that was loyal to him and Him alone would be willing to do the job. He grinned evilly and then summoned the person he was thinking of while unaware that he was being spied on...
The next day...
Isshin laughed as Ichigo had a laser pointer and Aizen was currently chasing the little red dot across the floor, Ichigo was highly amused as the shingami turned kitten chased the dot and nearly smacked into a wall slipping on a rug. Isshin then walked out of the TV room as he chuckled and said "At least he's having fun..."
Two weeks later...
Aizen was curled up next to Ichigo's heart when he heard the sound of footsteps outside in the hallway; He poked his head out of the covers to see an unknown Shingami approaching the bed with a dagger and leapt at the man with a loud yowl that woke up Ichigo and her family. Ichigo managed to get free of the covers as Aizen literally blind the shingami with his claws, the shingami then managed to grab Aizen by the scruff and threw him into a wall while Isshin entered the room to grab Ichigo and Aizen...
Isshin ushered his children into the Panic room as Ichigo held Aizen close, the kitten's breathing was labored as his eyes were closed and he wasn't responding to Ichigo's worried voice. They managed to close the door before the shingami arrived and Ichigo shivered at the cry of rage that the shingami gave, they waited about three hours when they heard Kisuke's voice telling them to open the door. Isshin went out first and found Gin and Kisuke standing there, Kisuke had a serious look on his face and said "You need to take your family to Los Noches now! The Shingami saw Ichigo's true gender before he was blinded and left to report!"
Isshin cursed and quickly got the twins out first then helped Ichigo who was still holding Aizen in her arms; Gin looked worried at seeing the unmoving kitten but quickly opened a portal back to Los Noches where they came out into the infirmary. Gin gently took Aizen and called for Szayel who came out to check on the family and treat Aizen...
Two days later...
Aizen groaned softly as he woke up and made to sit up when he realized something was off about his body, he blinked as he raised a "Paw" to find a human hand and quickly sat up as his ears twitched rapidly in shock. Aizen quickly felt his ears which were still the ears of a cat and looked down to realize he still had a tail also; Aizen was in shock but then noticed a certain red headed teen sleeping next to the bed, he went to wake her only to hiss in slight pain as he moved his rib cage the wrong way. He blinked as he tried to remember what happened when it all came rushing back, he let out a low growl then looked at Ichigo as he knew her friends were now in danger. He made to stand when Gin came in and softly said as he got his leader to sit back down "Relax...Ichigo's friends are already here, safe and sound."
Aizen sighed and then asked quietly so he wouldn't wake up Ichigo, "Why do I still have Cat ears and a tail?"
Gin looked a little nervous and said "Apparently Szayel made a small calculation in the antidote and it resulted in you...having Cat ears and a tail permanently."
Aizen sat down and sighed as he asked "Is that all that happened?"
"You have the ability to take on your Cat form and will most likely have some cat like mannerisms...that's all we found out so far."
Aizen nodded then looked at Ichigo and asked "How long has she been here?"
"Two days... she refused to leave your side after what happened..."
Aizen looked alarmed as he said "I was out for two days?!"
Gin nodded and explained what happened to him causing Aizen to sigh, Aizen then hissed as he moved the wrong way again causing Ichigo to stir and sit up. She rubbed her eyes and then looked up to see Aizen wake beside her, she threw herself at him as she said "Oh God, you had me so scared! I'm so glad you're ok!"
Aizen hugged her tight and said "I'm fine now...but what about you? Are you alright?"
Ichigo nodded as she made to pull away but Aizen gently hugged her again and said "Ichigo, what's wrong? You can tell me..."
Gin caught the look Aizen shot him and wisely stepped out of the room as Ichigo then burst in to tears causing Aizen to pull her close as he sat on the bed, He then stroked her hair gently as he said "What's wrong Ichigo? Why are you so upset?"
"It's my entire fault! Yamamoto came after me...and he still will and he'll go after the ones I care about to do it!"
Aizen's eyes softened as he hugged her and said "He can try but I won't even allow him the pleasure of getting close to you or the others..."
Ichigo sniffled as she felt warm and safe in his arms then laid her head on his shoulder, Aizen was a little surprised but didn't do anything as he knew she need the comfort right now. Two hours later, Ichigo was feeling much better as she sighed with a smile and Thanked Aizen for lending a listening ear...
Meanwhile...
Isshin was furious because Yamamoto somehow made it impossible to contact the royal realm by normal means; Isshin knew his Father needed to know what was going on but he had a feeling that Yamamoto had probably found a way to block ALL means of contacting the royal realm. Isshin sighed and resolved to find a way to bring the situation to his father's attention, his thoughts then turned to Aizen and Ichigo as he wondered if Aizen knew that they were trying to set the two up together. He smiled and shook his head as he thought "Nah!"
Over the next few days, Aizen had been tested for any possible side effects of the antidote and they couldn't find anything out of the normal for the moment. Aizen sighed when he was free of the lab and headed to his office to get caught up the demonic entity known as paperwork that needed to be done, he then found Loly and her sister Menoly about to attack Ichigo as he came around the corner. He let out an animalistic snarl as he quickly put himself in front of Ichigo and caught the sisters' wrists, Ichigo watched as Loly and Menoly ran down the hall in fear from Aizen, then noticed the tension in Aizen's body as he stood there growling deep in his chest. Ichigo quickly stood and gently touched Aizen who jumped and looked at her with Cat like eyes, Ichigo quickly figured out what happened and smiled as she gently grabbed his hand to lead him to the sitting room in her quarters.
Ichigo got Aizen to lay his head down her lap as she then began to gently scratch his ears in an attempt to relax the tension in his body; Aizen then began to purr happily at the delightful ear scratches and slowly began to relax under Ichigo's gentle touch. Ichigo giggled as Aizen then sat up completely relaxed and began to gently nuzzle her cheek and neck while purring, she then yelped as Aizen bit down on the crook of her neck with his fangs suddenly and began to lap at the blood. Ichigo made to gently push him away when she noticed her fingernails starting to grow and sharpen, she yelped softly and quickly stood up as an unbearable heat made its way through her body. She felt faint from the heat and almost fell when Aizen caught her, Ichigo whimpered as she knew something was very wrong with her but as she caught Aizen's scent...She no longer cared.
She felt Aizen gently carry her into her room and place her on the bed as he lay down next to her, he then gently kissed her lips causing the heat to rise again and Ichigo moaned softly as Aizen and her cuddled while falling asleep...
Four hours later...
Ichigo stirred and snuggled into Aizen's embrace as she took in his scent of Pine and fresh Rain, she then wiggled out of his arms to go to the washroom when she passed the full length mirror. Ichigo's brain registered what it saw and she doubled back to look in the mirror as she reached for her ears, Ichigo paled because right under her hands, were fluffy orange tabby ears with a cream center. Ichigo screamed as she turned around and screamed even louder as she realized she also had an orange tabby tail with a cream tip! Aizen woke up in an instant and looked around with a sleepy look on his face as Ichigo sunk to the floor in shock and fear. Aizen quickly hurried over as he looked worried and asked "Ichigo...what happened? The last thing I remember was going to my office and finding Loly and Menoly about to attack you..."
Ichigo then blinked in shock and said as the heat from before suddenly flared up "You don't remember biting the crook of my Neck after I got you calmed down after Loly and Menoly ran off?"
Aizen was shocked and shook his head no when Isshin came and found out what happened to his eldest...
