Of Birthdays and Siblings
~Spicy Twins~
Two bright teal eyes watched as the two dark haired females interacted with each other. "I swear those two don't like each other, but I can't figure out the life of me why they aren't getting along."
"Young master, you don't exactly get along with your sister." Hyorinmaru said, his voice indicating he found the situation found humorous. "Keep in mind you aren't comfortable with the fact that she's kissed you twice."
"She got us both there." The comment from the substitute caused him to glanced up, blinking a couple of times.
A smile spread across his face. "No Kurosaki. She's actually fine with my explanation that I am a captain and can't give her information because of Soul Society's rules. I haven't seen her in awhile, but she told me that she's mad at you for hiding things form her despite the fact you rather could feel her in. You told your friends didn't you?"
"Yeah, but..." There came a pause from Ichigo before he spoke up again. "...she didn't see Aizen."
"That isn't the point and you know it." Toshiro shook his head at the shinigami. He then looked over at his sister, meaning to ask her what she thought she was doing trying to argue with Karin. He was surprised to see her in deep thought. "Is something wrong Baba-nee?"
The girl turned then to look him square in the eye. "Are you really a captain of the Gotei Thirteen? You aren't wearing a haori like I've heard about."
Toshiro opened his mouth to respond, only to have Ichigo speak up for him. "He's a captain all right. He doesn't get much respect for his age."
"Yeah... your one to talk as you've never used my proper title." The small taicho felt his mouth pushing together. "That is besides the point as I pretty much lost the rank of captain when I helped my sister escape like I did. I mean, that makes me a traitor."
Bambietta's frown deepened when Ichigo shook his head and spoke. "I knew you had gone and done it again. I'll try to run interference for you two, but we really need to find a place for you to go. I'll ask Uryu if he can help you guys out. I mean, the Shinigami know where I live, but they don't know where he lives. I'll give him a call when we get to Urahara's. We need to get you two a couple of gigai before the people from Soul Society show up."
The substitute stood up and the two children followed him through the door. Bambietta continued to frown but not voice her feelings about what she heard. Upon arriving at the shop, Urahara snapped his fan shut. "Ahh... young Hitsugaya. What can I do for you today?"
"Have you heard from Soul Society yet?" Toshiro spoke up, glancing at the entrance warily.
"No I haven't." The man spoke up. Ichigo briefly surmised what had occurred and the man frowned. "I am more then willing to give you two gigai and give you a quick medical check up. However, this is not a good place for either of you to stay. Nor is Ichigo's place. As he's pointed out, the best place for you to go is to head over to Uryu's after lunch. Though I don't know if he'll appreciate the situation."
Ichigo walked over to the store phone and began to dial the Quincy's phone number. It wrung and Uryu answered the phone. "Do you need something Urahara?"
"I'm not Urahara."
"I'm going to hang up now." The other teen seemed irritated.
"Actually, I need your help. Would it be possibly for Toshiro to stay at your place for a bit of time until we can get some things straightened out? His sister as well?"
"Kurosaki... may I remind you that I am not allowed to help the Shinigami As much as I like Toshiro, I will have to ask my father if I can make an exception because he is technically a child." There was a moment of silence. "Wait... did you just say his sister as well? Do you mean Hinamori? I've met her briefly and I am honestly not very fond of her."
"Why?"
"Since you haven't met her you don't know how apposed to change she is. Her new taicho struggled with getting her to trust him and I only think she's fine now because she's had to deal with him every day. She does not like the fact that I am a Quincy."
"Oh, well I can see her having a problem with Toshiro's real sister then." Ichigo spoke up. Toshiro glanced up from where he was sitting for the examination and frowned.
"Real sister?"
"Since your a Quincy you're obligated to help other Quincy even if they are a hybrid between a Shinigami and a Quincy right? Which is a loophole to the promise you made your father, right?"
Another bit of silence came over the phone. "I'll still be talking to my father about this one after they get to my place. Even if it is a loophole, it would be better for me to get them to his place if possible, and since they're both I'm assuming half Quincy he'll perchance be willing to help. I don't know for sure though."
"Good. I'll bring them over after lunch."
"No, I'll come and pick them up. As soon as I have them you need to wash your hands of this and let me take care of the situation this time. Any Soul Reaper I meet up with I can argue that they are causing a political infraction by attacking the two and demanding they be returned."
"Can that actually work?"
"Some of the Shinigami are dumb enough to believe it while those who aren't will likely side with being politically friendly. "
Ichigo hung up the phone and turned towards the two children. Urahara helped Toshiro pull his uniform back on. "So, you guys are going to go and stay with Uryu. He's a Quincy, so..."
"No." Bambietta frowned at the three.
Toshiro blinked a couple of times. "I don't get why you don't trust anybody."
"Hitsugaya..." Urahara clapped his fan shut. "I don't think your sister has trust issues. I think she wants to keep you to herself. The two of you are twins after all and they have always shared a special spiritual bond. The two of you have been separated for some time, so it is no wonder that she is getting defensive about this."
Bambietta continued to glare at them.
"Not to mention she was giving me dirty looks when I was examining you, so..."
"You really are a hentai." Toshiro piped up. "That isn't how a brother and sister's relationship is supposed to work."
The words caused Ichigo's eyebrow to suddenly twitch. "And I thought my family is messed up."
"I am not a pervert!" Bambietta spoke up. "I'm a lot more comfortable with the others being around you. He looks like a pedophile."
The corner of Urahara's mouth suddenly twitched. "I don't have a fetish for little kids. My true love is a cute little black kitty cat."
"So your into bestiality!"
"If you met Yourichi you would understand why it isn't." Ichigo spoke up, waving his hand.
"But I prefer her in her kitty form."
"You're purposefully being creepy now old man." Toshiro stood up to leave. "We're going to stay with Uryu, Baba-nee."
"Not unless you apologize for calling me a hentai." The small female glared at him, her mouth turing up in a frown.
"Excuse me?"
Urahara let out a deep sigh. "Baba-chan and Hitsugaya. I say yoy both apologize for this misunderstanding the two of you have had without uttering a word. Baba-chan, there are boundaries you should not cross. Hitsugaya, she honestly doesn't have a crush on her. As for sharing your brother with other people, that just means you get to make new friends, right? How about some candy?"
"I like candy!" The small female suddenly smiled, causing Toshiro to flinch.
Urahara saw a look, before turning to the dark haired girl. "I'm also going to add the fact your brother doesn't know how to actually act his age and the thought of acting like a little kid scares him a big deal. This is despite the fact a lot of the captains who are twice his age or more feel completely fine with acting like a child. Including myself, a form captain."
Bambietta frowned again. "So your an ex-captain like Toto-chan? Why would he do something crazy like helping me escape when he's more likely to face execution for what he's done."
"Family is important. We should get going."
"Hold it." Urahara's face became serious. "Hitsugaya, you have a bad head injury, so you'll want to be careful about participating in any fights. Ichigo, let Uryu as he'll know what to do medically for this kind of situation."
