Here is the next chapter...remeber i do not own bleach or else there would be more Karin :) please reivew it makes me feel loved...lolz :P

Karin was laying in her bed looking at the ceiling, but she couldn't bring herself to get out of bed. Dinner had been really uneventful. In fact it was exactly the same as every other dinner, but it did how her what she was going to miss out on, and who she was really going to miss, and that was Yuzu. Still, though, Karin needed a way to keep her safe, even if that was all that she could do for her sister.

Karin touched her neck, because she had come up with a solution to her delmima yesterday, but she wasn't sure if it was going to work. She really hoped that it would because then she could do more than just protect Yuzu, even while in the soul society.

'Have I not told you it would work? Didn't I promise you that it would? Do you not trust my word anymore?'Fenikkusu growled inside her head.

'You know that I trust you. That isn't the case, and it never will be. I trust you with my life Fenikkusu.' Karin soothed her.

'You trust me with your life, just not Yuzu's life.'

'No, I trust you with hers too, but I am still nervous and worried for her. I won't allow anything to happen to her.'

'I know and that is why you asked me for help, and why I gave it to you. It is also why you will get up even though you don't want to.'

Karin sighed as she pulled herself out of bed and started to get ready. They had both known that she would get up and do what she had promised to do, and that was to leave her home, and her sister.

Karin was already starting to miss Yuzu, and she hadn't even left the house yet. As she started down the stairs she saw Yuzu laying out the plates for their final breakfast together for a while, and Ichigo helping anyway he could as their dad jumped around like and idiot bawling about how his precious daughter was leaving him. Toshiro just leaned against the wall, pretend to be invisible.

When she was in full view of Yuzu her sister ran up and hugged her as hard as she could before she led Karin to her seat at the table. Everyone followed and took their seats as well. Yuzu had out done herself, there was more food than they could eat in a week spread out across the table.

Breakfast passed silently, though not completely uncomfortable, and when everyone had finished and the food was put away Toshiro spoke. "Thank you all for your hospitality, but I have been called back home and have to leave today."

Yuzu nodded and wiped away her tears, "We'll miss you Hitsugaya." and she hugged Ichigo and said, "Ich-nii, you should take Karin to her plane soon. I've got to head off to school."

Yuzu was getting ready to leave, and Jinta was almost at the door, Karin realized that if she was going to do this that it needed to be now. "Wait Yuzu," Karin said pulling a silver chain from around her neck and handing it to her sister, "This is for you," on the chain there was a golden feather hanging down, it almost resembled the color of gold, but it seemed like a real feather, "It will keep us close."

She smiled as Yuzu took it and placed it around her neck. The moment she let go of it she gasped. 'Don't panic, don't over react. Stay clam.' she heard Karin chanting inside her head. For a second she thought that she was going crazy. 'You aren't crazy, the necklace allows us to communicate inside our minds no matter where we are, as long as we both want to.'

Yuzu's smile got bigger but no one other than she and Karin knew why. 'How?' Yuzu asked.

'It doesn't matter, but you can't tell anyone.'

'Okay.' Yuzu though before running over to Karin and giving her a hug. "I love it Karin, thank you so much!"

Karin smiled and closed down the connection, now wasn't the right time to use it. 'I told you that it would work. If anything happens my feather will provide a sheild for her using my powers and will protect her from any danger, but it can't be sensed. Because you guys are twins it exploits the connection between your minds and provides a thicker bond between you to and allows you to speak within your thoughts.'Fenikkusu explained, yet again.

Jinta knocked on the door calling for Yuzu and she left with him after a few more minutes. Now it was time for Karin to leave as well, so Karin said briskly, "Toshiro lets head over to Urahara's now. Ichigo, watch out for Yuzu please."

Ichigo nodded and Toshiro followed her out the door and to Urahara's where the portal to the soul society was waiting along with Ikkaku, Yumichika, and Rangiku. She hid her zanpakuto the only way she could when no one was looking before going through the portal with them.
