Ichigo woke up to a grinning blonde man hovering over him. His first response was to kick said man off him and turn over to go back to sleep, but five seconds later the man was there again, so Ichigo settled for a staring contest at 6:45 in the morning. About fifteen minutes later, Yoruichi threw her bedroom door opened and froze at the sight that met her: Ichigo was glaring heatedly at Urahara, who was sitting on top of Ichigo and staring at Lord Cat, who in turn was still tripping over his own feet.

"Explain," she demanded, causing all the boys to jump slightly at her sudden, obviously irritated presence.

"It's just a harmless staring contest," Urahara said airily, waving his fan around like an idiot.

"I'm sure," she said, sarcasm dripping from her words. Ichigo just huffed before turning over on the couch he had dropped dead on the night before and pulling the blanket over his head.

'Mrew,' Cat responded, tripping over his feet again.

"Lord Cat's right, we need pancakes this morning," Yoruichi cheerfully called before she jumped on the lump that was the temporary chef lying on the couch. Of course Ichigo was too awake after that to fall asleep again, so he just stood up and walked to the kitchen to make pancakes.

"Make sure to put some Black Tea on, too," Urahara called after him. Then there was a loud 'clang' that showed Yoruichi didn't approve of the drink choice.

"Mint," she called to Ichigo, and Urahara groaned, but if it was in disagreement of the drink or pain Ichigo didn't know.

**time skip***

Ichigo placed the pancakes on the table and watched as Urahara made a grab for them, only to find a fork between his fingers as Yoruichi weld them with fury that wasn't made to be argued with. Ichigo just rolled his eyes as he went back to the kitchen and brought out a cup each of Mint and Black tea for the two arguing adults.

"Thank you, Ichigo," Urahara called out as he picked up the tea and gulped it down all at once, making Ichigo cringe as he remembered the bitter taste. Yoruichi just slammed her fork and knife down on the table to show that she was hungry and wanted the syrup for her pancakes, so of course Ichigo went and grabbed the bottle off the counter and placed it on the table. However, by the time Ichigo was ready to eat, Yoruichi was lying flat on her back and there were no pancakes left.

"Yoruichi~ I didn't get any~" Urahara complained loudly, voicing Ichigo's own complaints.

"SO!" Yoruichi snapped at the blonde. Urahara just pouted and picked up the unconscious cat that had been lying on the floor like his master.

"Even Lord Cat's upset about it!" Urahara lied through his teeth while shaking the poor animal. Yoruichi just glared at the animal of her ire before she grabbed the tea cup and drained it. Ichigo started to stand up but was suddenly pinned down by a blur of white, and he found himself staring up at the big cat once again as it sat on him obviously enjoying itself.

"Ichigo, you and the cat should go and run around outside," Yoruichi demanded as she shoved the 280 lb. cat off of him with one arm and half-dragged, half-flung him out the door.

Ichigo just stared at the door before he stood up and started jogging, the cat following after him.

"I'm bored!" Gin suddenly declared as they walked down the white washed halls of what once was the base of the crazy people who experimented on children.

"Me, too~" Nel complained before her head shot up and she started sniffing the air.

"Nel?" Shiro asked as the girl grinned wider than ever before and took off towards the entrance.

"KITTY!" she called as she took off.

"Huh?" all the boys questioned as the turned and followed after the small green ball of energy that had quite literally pulled the entrance door off its hinges. Needless to say, the sight that met them was weird, mostly because of the albino cat whose eyes were begging to be rescued from the kid that had pinned it to the ground and refused to let go.

"Um, Nel, I don't think the kitty likes that," Gin tried to reason with the girl who had started sobbing. Suddenly she started sniffing the cat. The poor animal looked mortified. Then Nel started giggling.

"The cat smells kinda like Shi-chan but sweeter," Nel proclaimed suddenly.

"Shi-chan?" Shiro demanded as all the other boys started snickering. Nel just ignored them and took off in a random direction after whatever smelled sweet.

"Does it smell like strawberries?" Shiro suddenly called.

"Yeah, how did you know?" Nel asked, looking cute as Shiro tore past her.

Ichigo was almost to the part of the forest where he sprinted when a white blur jumped him. He fell over and was promptly dragged into the nearest bush. Ichigo made a move to turn to see his attacker but a warning growl said not to. Ichigo all too gladly obeyed.

"Shiro, wait up~" someone complained loudly as a white copy of Ichigo broke through the bushes and looked around. Then a guy with white hair and another with blue hair caught up with him, panting and quietly cursing between breaths.

"Nel, sniff them out!" Shiro called.

"NO! NO! NO! Oh, there they are!" a little girl shouted. As she looked at the bush where the cat had pulled them, said cat jumped out, growling. Shiro just jumped at the cat and wrestled it to the ground. Nel in the meantime jumped into the bush and grabbed Ichigo's leg, dragging him from the bush and then putting his leg in an iron grip as she cuddled with it.

Five minutes later, Shiro chased the cat off and turned and grinned at Ichigo.

"How'd you get that watch to New York?" Shiro asked with a grin, only to get a fist to his face.

"That's for checking out military bases before looking for your brother," Ichigo huffed in Japanese before he sat down and let Nel cling to his waist.

In the meantime Yoruichi was sitting on her porch with a small smile on her face as she waited for the cat to come home; what she didn't expect was for the cat to come barreling through the edge of the woods and hide under her porch.

"I think that's a good sign," Urahara commented quietly as he drank Mint Tea with Yoruichi.

"He'll be back," Yoruichi stated, staring at the forest.

"You don't know that," Urahara chided to the grinning woman.

"Of course I do," she said, letting her foot come in contact with Urahara's face as she sent him flying. "And it's Yoruichi-sama!" she called after him.
