Chapter 28: 3 Days for Conspiracy
Ami's House That Night
"Ichigo-kun why won't you make love to me?" Ami whined on her couch. She was completely naked; her head hanging over the arm rest, legs crossed in the air, swinging one back and forth in an attempt to seduce him, but her best efforts were failing. Ichigo walked out of the kitchen, completely dressed and unfazed by her actions.
Oh my god I think I'm gonna vomit…
I gotta say king you've got a mind of steel. Most guys no matter how devoted they were would be getting a little hard right now…
Well it could be that….or it could be that I'm just thoroughly disgusted with her…
Yeah…that could do it…
Achoo!
Oh hey Zangetsu you didn't die!
I'm insulted….
I felt like I did….what was in that stuff you gave me Shiro?
Don't worry about it ^ ^
As enthralling as this conversation is she's looking at me like I just grew a second head.
Well technically you have 3 heads, if you wanna call it that.
CAN IT!
"Ichi?" she asked in a sweet voice that made Ichigo's insides curl up in disgust. "Is something the matter?"
"No, nothing Hime-san, I just have a really nasty headache tonight" Ichigo grinned seductively. He still had to pull this act off, even if it did end up killing him and destroying his sex drive forever, he needed to get that final piece of information out of Ami. What did Aizen gain by sending the kids to the past?
"Humph" she growled and sank into the couch in defeat. "You know where the ibuprofen is" she hissed. Ichigo nodded and walked to the bathroom. He really did have a headache and wanted nothing more than to sleep. He opened the medicine and pulled out the ibuprofen bottle and opened it.
I wouldn't take that…
Why not?
That's not ibuprofen, that's a VERY powerful aphrodisiac; if you take it your mind of steel might not hold out.
Damnit…. She really wants me don't she…
Ichigo sighed and closed the medicine cabinet. He figured maybe some sleep would cure him of his headache.
"Oh Ichi-kun!" he heard a voice sing from the living room. He sighed in defeat.
"Or not… Coming darling!" he shouted convincingly. Maybe I should thank Byakuya for those acting lessons. He walked into the living room and saw her pouting on the couch.
"I got a phone call from Aizen-sama… we're making our move in 3 days…" she glared.
"Isn't that good hime-sama?" Ichigo asked. Ami shook her head.
"No! That means that me and you only have 3 more days to be together!" she pouted.
Oh darn… "Hime-sama, may I please just go to bed. I really don't feel well" Ichigo sighed, while still trying to pull off the madly in love act.
"Whatever…" Ami groaned. Ichigo bowed and went into the bedroom, pulling out his phone and sending a text to Rukia.
Aizen told Ami to move in 3 days. Make sure your ready. He snapped the phone shut and deleted the message, placing it in his shirt pocket and trying to fall asleep.
That Night, Ichigo's house
"Tell me a story Masaki" Rukia smiled as she laid her head on arms, folded over on Ichigo's bed. Masaki was laying on the floor reading one of her mother's manga with Kon when she looked up slightly bewildered.
"Isn't it supposed to be the other way around?" Masaki asked. Rukia laughed.
"Tell me a future story" Rukia asked again. Masaki sighed and furrowed her eyebrows, reminding Rukia of Ichigo with her facial expression.
"Hmmmmm I think I have one that will make you smile" Masaki sat up. "When I was little, like 3 or 4, I always used to have these horrible nightmares. I would wake up in the middle of the night screaming. They would always be about monsters eating these poor people on the streets, more than likely now that I think about it; it was probably hollows eating souls."
"How is this happy…." Rukia glared.
"Shush! It gets better! So one night I woke up after a dream and daddy came into my room. He sat down on my bed and picked me up, resting me in his lap and holding me close.
"What was the dream about Masaki-chan" he yawned lovingly into my ear. I told him, you and him were eaten by the monsters and I was left alone at the river where grandma was buried. I started crying into his chest.
"Shhhh" he hushed into my hair, stroking it. "It was only a dream see? I'm right here." I shook my head. It was almost like I couldn't believe it until I saw you as well, so I asked to see you. "You wanna see mama? Alright if it will help you go to sleep." He picked me up and carried me into your guys' room. You were sitting up in bed looking at us, a small smile formed on your lips when we walked in.
"We were eaten by the monsters in her dream, she needed to see both of us to be ok" he explained. He sat down on the bed and you took me, resting me in your lap.
"Masaki-chan we're too tough to be eaten by those silly monsters in your dream" you smiled.
"I would kick their ass and your mother would nag them to death" daddy grinned, until you punched him.
"Ok, first of all, watch your language in front of her. And second I DO NOT NAG!" you shouted. Your fights would always make me laugh so that's what I did. You two shut up and smiled at me, daddy grabbing both me and you and pulling us close.
"I have an idea" he grinned. "What if we sang her a song like we would when she couldn't sleep when she was a baby?" You smiled and nodded.
"But which one?" you asked. He smiled and looked at you.
"Just go with it." You nodded and smiled at me.
For just one second
If the sun is burning
it will melt the sky
the morning will come
from its sleep
raising its voice
it's sprouting
the world
When I have accepted it
I realized that it has become a past
The destination of this embracing sadness are
wind
sky
star
rain
Even if I have run past it
the wind
is now
on
that cheek
Like about to disappear
the scribbled
memories are just
To gaze at it is
just too fast
in the vagueness
it's returning back
the world
If I put it away inside my heart
the whole thing will be now
Those that are always close to sadness are
wind
sky
star
rain
It's connecting, suddenly I'm just looking up
to that
sky
inside that
chest
"I'm glad that I met you," this feeling just, just
carries a heat that's like the sunset
The night
is still
unlike the star
After the rain
it just
just
glows
(I hope those lyrics are right, they're the english translation… but I hope everyone knows what song I'm having them sing here ^ ^)
"Needless to say, the song was so beautiful. I smiled and snuggled into your chest. You kissed daddy and handed me off and you two put me to bed. After that night, I never had another nightmare again. The years later when you two finally got married, you two sang that song at your wedding. I think it's my favorite song ever" Masaki grinned. "That and the song that daddy sang to you on your birthday when I was 12….. I think he called that Unchangeable word?" she thought.
"How did we come up with such a pretty song on the spot?" Rukia sat, stunned by the beauty of the song, but the fact that they were that in sync on the spot.
"I have no idea, it's like you just knew. You two were perfectly in key, in sync, it seemed like you had rehearsed it 100 times before. I think it's because you two do love each other so much, and know each other so well. I really hope that I can have that with Shuhei one day" Masaki sighed with a dreamy smile.
"I'm sure you and….wait a sec…. Shuhei as in Lieutenant Shuhei Hisagi of the 9th division?" Rukia glared.
"Oh….did I say that out loud?" Masaki sweatdropped.
"You're dating that flirtatious drunk from the 9th with the number 69 tattooed on his face!" Rukia roared.
"Now in his defense he got that as a tribute to Kensei" Masaki nervously grinned.
"HE'S OLDER THAN I AM MASAKI!" Rukia screamed.
"But the age difference has never been an issue before" Masaki jumped up and was inching towards the door when Rukia's cell phone went off. Rukia glared at Masaki.
"Don't think you're getting off that easy dear" she barked before flipping open the phone. Her face automatically went from a look of anger, to one mixed of relief, and fear.
"What is it mama?" Masaki asked.
"Aizen's making a move in 3 days" she gulped. Masaki's eyes widened.
"He's the reason we're here isn't he?" Masaki asked. "What exactly has this man done to you guys? Who is he?" Rukia sat up and patted a spot next to her on the bed.
"Eww I was conceived there yesterday I don't wanna…"
"SIT!" Rukia glared. Masaki nodded and sat next to her mother. "I'll tell you from the beginning, the extended version of our story. What I am about to tell you will be heartrenching and shocking. Me and your father, as well as your aunts and uncles, even your grandfather almost lost our lives several times. And the sole reason behind this story you are about to hear, is the evil man named Sosuke Aizen."
"You want me to leave Nee-san?" Kon asked, actually being courteous. Rukia shook her head.
"No Kon, you're as important in this story as anyone else."
The Next Day, School
Renji and the others all sat around Toshiro's desk in the back of the room. Rukia had texted Renji last night about the text Ichigo sent her. They had decided to make battle plans, and would fill the rest of the kids in of their ideas at lunch.
"Ok, Aizen is definitely going to attempt to get the rest of the children out of the way. He already thinks that Rukia and Masaki are out of the way which works to our advantage" Toshiro explained. "I want one team on every edge of town, father mother and child. Chad, since Tatsuki can't fight I want her running relay, she'll responsible for communications, which will allow us to focus more on the fight."
"Yes Captain" Tatsuki and Chad nodded.
"Orihime, you're the expert healer, not a fighter. I want you working with Tatsuki to heal anyone who needs it. Take Chad's motorcycle as a means of getting around town. Is this clear? I think Sosuke and Ulquiorra can hold off whoever attacks them."
"Yes sir!" Orihime nodded.
"Good. Now we have no idea who Aizen will send. He could send an army of arrancar, espada, or even make an appearance himself. The only one we know will be their will be Ami, and Ichigo will be with her. The good news is that Ichigo will not kill us, as much as he might act like he will, which also works to our advantage since Aizen could be counting on him as their strongest weapon, even though it doesn't seem like Aizen would rely on such a questionable variable."
"Captain, what if we're outnumbered?" Rangiku asked.
"Isshin will be on backup call. Being an ex-captain he should be able to provide adequate assistance. If we absolutely must, we can always call Rukia and Masaki as well, even though that would destroy our façade it is a last resort option" Toshiro explained.
"But Captain with Rukia's…" Ulquiorra started.
"That's why she will be the last resort option" Toshiro addressed. "Due to Rukia's very recent pregnancy we do not need her jeopardizing herself or Masaki's lives. She will only fight if it is 100% necessary." This seemed to satisfy everyone and they nodded in response.
"Now, I want someone near the Kurosaki home as well, Nel, Grimmjow? Can you and Hiro take the Kurosaki residence area? Since you live there Nel it wouldn't seem unordinary for you to guard your home.
"Yes Sir, Captain Hitsugaya" Nel and Grimmjow responded.
"Alright. I have called the soul society and the Gentei Kaijo will be released on the day of the attack without question. They are also on emergency standby and if Tatsuki calls them will move as many people, lieutenants and captains included to the needed areas provided there are enough left to protect the soul society in case it is a distraction for Aizen to attack the Soul Society."
"My head hurts again…" Riley groaned, until Sia smacked her upside the head.
"Listen to the Captain in times of war; that is one of the first things a Shinigami should know" she glared.
"Yes mommy….." Riley apologized, rubbing the back of her head.
"Ok, the most crucial thing is that we have the children training during their free time during the coming days until the attack. We need them as good with their Shikai's as they can be by time the attack happens. Isshin has an underground passageway connecting his and Urahara's houses that he will use to transport Rukia and Masaki to the underground training area. He has blocked all reiatsu in the tunnel and the shop as well so that they will not be noticed. Yoruichi and Kisuke are gathering data; I'm sure whatever they come up with will be useful. Is this clear everyone? We tell the others at lunch and training for the battle begins today!"
"Yes Sir, Captain Hitsugaya!" they all shouted. They turned to go to their desks to find everyone staring at them.
"Are you quite through with your war plans Captain Hitsugaya?" Ms. Ochi asked with a snicker. She knew full well what they were doing but need to pull off the act in front of the students. Apparently the students had heard some of the convo Toshrio and the others were having and stopped to listen. The shinigami and arrancar went white in the face.
"How much did you guys hear?" Uryu stuttered.
"What's Gentei Kaijo?" Chizuru asked. Toshiro did a facepalm.
"I got it captain" Rangiku smiled, reaching into her shirt and pulling out a small devise with a rabbit on it.
"Why are you calling him…" Keigo started before a bright light went off, erasing the students memories and replacing them, making them believe they just heard a conversation about a party at Keigo's house that night. They all took their seat and class was about to start when the door burst open.
"Sorry we're late Ms. Ochi but me and Ichi-kun had to help a little boy whose cat was stuck in a tree" Ami grinned as she and Ichigo walked into the classroom.
"Ya and I saved Metropolis from Lex Luthor last night" Renji rolled his eyes. Sia and Riley giggled at the comment.
"Don't tell Rukia you said that or next thing you know she'll be drawing a chappified version of Renji in a superman outfit" Nel whispered.
"Would you like to be Superman Renji-kun?" Nemu asked monotonously. "I'm sure the 12th division could come up with some sort of…"
"IT WAS A JOKE DAMNIT!" Renji hissed.
"Alright settle down everyone class needs to start!" Ms. Ochi smacked the chalk board. The students nodded and listened intently to their teacher.
Lunch
"So does everyone understand how the next 3 days will go?" Toshiro asked everyone at lunch. They all nodded and Toshiro nodded in response.
"So we're taking you all training every day from now until the attack. You need to know what your Shikai's can do" Renji declared.
"Ryuji, I also want to see what you can do with your combined Quincy and Shinigami powers" Uryu stated.
"Mayuri-sama is also very curious" Nemu added.
"That psycho is not going anywhere near our son!" Uryu shouted.
"I can have him change his hat…"
"NO!" Uryu shouted.
"What's he talking about?"
"You're grandfather's insane"
"Don't talk that way about Mayuri-sama!"
"What way it's true!"
"The Gotei 13 would not be what they are today without Mayuri-sama!"
"Mayuri Kurotsuchi would still be in the maggots nest if it weren't because Urahara's retarded!"
"Don't bring daddy into this!"
"Grandpa's not crazy! He's such a good guy!"
"What Mayuri Kurotsuchi you talking about!"
"Taco…" Everyone stopped and looked at Satoru.
"Um…Satoru? Why did you randomly shout taco?" Chad asked.
"The argument was stupid and pointless and shouting something stupid and random was the only way to get your attention" Satoru replied. Uryu was about to say something when the doors opened and Ichigo and Ami came upstairs onto the roof.
"Remember, we gotta play that we think Rukia's dead" Toshiro ordered.
"I have just the plan" Renji smirked. He stood and ran over to Ichigo, grabbing him by the throat and ramming him into the wall.
I've wanted to beat the shit out of him for a while now and I finally have an excuse Renji smirked inwardly.
"You bastard! You fucking bastard! What the hell did you do to Rukia!" he shouted, ramming Ichigo into the wall again.
Wow, they really think she's dead.. I'll have to apologize one day…
"She was eliminated to please hime-san" Ichigo flatly explained. Renji got the tears to build in his eyes as he raised his fist and threw it into Ichigo's jaw.
"I'll kill you! She's gone and it's all your fault you bastard!" she screamed, punching Ichigo again.
"Oh please Renji-kun stop beating up Ichi-kun!" Ami cried, running to Renji. She grabbed his arm and he threw her off, sending her into the building.
"Shut up you whore! I know this is your fault!" Renji screamed. Ichigo punched Renji this time.
"Don't you ever hurt Ami-chan or I'll kill you in an instant…Abarai Renji" Ichigo spat. He stood and kicked Renji in the side before walking towards Ami. "Let's go Ami-chan" he smiled, taking her hand and walking away.
"Bastard!" Renji growled. "You never really loved Rukia if you could do this to her!" he growled. Ichigo's eyes widened and he almost stopped dead in his tracks.
Does he… is that true? Do I not love Rukia if I find myself able to hurt her like I have? Like I still might be?
"Damnit Renji that was stupid" Uryu growled.
"I didn't think he'd take it that hard" Renji's eyes shot open.
I'm so sorry Rukia…Renji…Masaki….everyone….. Ichigo turned with tears his eyes at Renji, glaring, before sucking it up and walking with Ami again.
"Damnit Ichigo…" Renji sighed.
"RETARD!" Riley shouted, kicking him in the head.
That Afternoon, Urahara's shop
"Alright everyone, your training was excellent today" Urahara clapped. "But I do think it's time to go home now. You all must be quite exhausted and your spirit energy probably drained. Take a nice hot bath and don't stay up to late now!" he grinned.
"Shut up Kisuke you just want me out of here so I don't shoot your ass again" Ryuji growled.
"That was a good shot Ryuji….just don't listen to your father next time he tells you where to aim" Urahara nervously laughed behind his fan.
"Come on we can go practice at the hospital if you want Ryuji" Uryu laughed.
"And I'll bring the whip" Nemu nodded.
"We don't need a whip what the hell do you think we're gonna do!" Uryu shouted.
"I thought it was play time" Nemu blinked. Uryu promptly slapped his forehead.
"Remind me never to ask them what they do in their free time" Ulquiorra sighed. Orihime laughed as they and Sosuke went to leave.
"Well, I guess me and Masaki are back into the underground tunnel" Rukia sighed as Masaki sheathed her sword.
"But mommy it stinks down there" Masaki sighed. Rukia growled and grabbed her ear.
"It does not! It's all in your head!" she roared, dragging Masaki into the underground tunnel.
"Goodbye cruel world!" Masaki sighed, waving a white handkerchief. Rukia rolled her eyes and smacked Masaki upside the head. "Child abuse!" Masaki whined.
"Parent abuse!" Rukia mimicked.
"They should do standup" Sia wagged her tail. Riley rolled her eyes and went to go shower.
"Goodbye everyone!" Urahara waved with his fan and a goofy grin. Yoruichi joined him and laughed as everyone else quickly fled the underground training area.
"What do you think Yoruichi-san?" Kisuke asked, moving only his eyes towards his lover from his position behind the fan. She returned his gaze with only her eyes, before sighing.
"I honestly have no idea Kisuke…" she sighed, looking back toward the shrinking forms going up the ladder. "What about Byakuya-bo and Yachiru?" she asked.
"If they find that they are needed they will assist Yoruichi-san, I'm not concerned about that" he glared towards the path Rukia and Masaki took back to the Kurosaki clinic. "I'm concerned with Rukia's pregnancy…"
…
….
….
….
"Life….. Is such a fragile thing…."
Future
"I can't believe you would just sit there while Orihime was practically…"
"Don't even make it sound like you didn't enjoy yourself in my office yesterday Ulquiorra" Ichigo laughed at Ulquiorra. The two were hanging out at a coffee shop in Karakura while Rukia and Orihime were on yet another of their numerous shopping adventures. The sun was hidden behind a few clouds as the breeze made the two men glad they wore jackets today. Ulquiorra glared at Ichigo for his statement and took an angry sip of his coffee.
Ichigo and Rukia had taken the kids and Kaede back home after the incident with Ulquiorra and Orihime and Renji was back in school today. They were completely normal now and it almost seemed like the incident never happened. So when Rukia asked to go on one of her shopping adventures today and Ichigo replied no as usual, it wasn't unusual at all that she kicked him in the shin and stole his credit card. This would always result in Ichigo giving in and him and Ulquiorra sitting in this very coffee shop as Orihime and Rukia blew their money on useless things. Orihime had a much less violent but equally scary way of getting Ulquiorra to agree to the adventures…. She would offer to cook dinner that night.
"Have you heard anything from Byakuya or Yachiru today?" Ulquiorra asked, resting his head in his hand, entwining his fingers in his shiny black hair.
"Not since yesterday" Ichigo answered. He turned and saw Rukia and Orihime running out of the store across the mall and into another, at least a dozen bags each in their arms. Ichigo and Ulquiorra sighed at the sight.
"How many of these outfits do you see them wear Ichigo?" Ulquiorra asked.
"Maybe one or two of the thirty they buy every trip" he groaned. "I can feel my wallet getting thinner…."
"At least we make good money" Ulquiorra nodded.
"You know what I've always wondered?" Ichigo questioned. Ulquiorra gave him a sideways glance to show he was paying attention. "How does the soul society get the money converted to yen?" Ulquiorra chuckled almost, before getting a stern confused look on his face.
"I….don't know" he answered. He went to open his mouth again when Orihime glomped him from behind, causing him to fall forward and almost spill his coffee.
"Ulquiorra-kun look what I bought!" she shouted.
"I can't woman you're covering my eyes!" Ulquiorra sighed. Orihime made an OH face and let go with a goofy smile.
"I bought a Chappy comforter for the bed!" Rukia grinned.
"I'm sure Kyoko will love it" Ichigo smiled.
"No silly, not for Kyoko, for our bed!" Rukia grinned, holding up the comforter. Ichigo promptly spat out his coffee.
"There is no way in hell this is going on our bed!" Ichigo shouted. "And no amount of kicking, or whining, or bitching, or threats of abstinence are going to get me to change my mind!" Ichigo growled.
"We'll see about that" Rukia grinned. Ichigo scowled and turned to see the "outfit" Orihime had just pulled out to show Ulquiorra. Ulquiorra blushed profusely, which would have made Ichigo laugh hysterically at him for being so out of character, had he not seen what he just saw. Ulquiorra slammed the box shut and looked at Orihime with wide eyes.
"That is NOT something you pull out in public Orihime!" he gasped. Rukia was blank faced. Sure she had been with Orihime when she bought it, but she didn't expect her to pull it out in public to show Ulquiorra. Ichigo promptly took a nearby pencil, and tried to erase the images from his eyes.
Later, Kurosaki Household
"Ichigo lay face down on the unchappified side of the bed as Rukia finished her shower. Renji and Kyoko were already in bed and Ichigo was exhausted.
"Hurry up Rukia!" he groaned. Ichigo and Rukia always had to go to bed at the same time, because Ichigo would always wake Rukia up when he got in, and Rukia would always wake up Ichigo. So in order to insure a quality night sleep they always went to bed at the same time, even if it was extremely inconvenient for one of them. Rukia finally walked in and pulled off her towel to change. She knew how tired Ichigo was when not only was she left alone, but he didn't even say anything to her as she dressed herself.
"Why you so tired?" she asked as she righted her tank top.
"Long day" he sighed. She crawled into bed and pulled the covers up around her, sticking a hand in Ichigo's orange hair and twirling it around her fingers.
"You sure it's not because you can finally sleep now that I'm back? You slept like a log last night" she grinned. She suddenly yelped however when without moving his face a strong arm wrapped around her and pulled her closer.
"That might be it" he sighed, turning his head and burying in her hair. "Night" he smiled.
"Goodnight Ichigo."
Hitsugaya Household
"Daddy!" little Zero Hitsugaya shouted as he found his father in the kitchen. Toshiro was in the kitchen trying to fix the freezer (or just completely Hyorinmaru it) and turned to find his five year old son staring at him with wide eyes.
"What's up?" Toshrio questioned. "Shouldn't you be in bed? Did you have a bad dream?" he asked. Zero shook his head.
"There's a monster outside my window!" he cringed. Toshiro looked at him for a minute before softly smiling.
"There's no such thing as monster's Zero come on" he grabbed Zero's hand and led him upstairs into his room, finding Rangiku on the way.
"Aren't you supposed to be in bed mister?" Rangiku frowned at Zero.
"There's a monster outside his window" Toshiro chuckled. Rangiku laughed.
"There's no such thing as monsters silly" she smiled. She followed them to his room and picked up Zero as Toshiro went to the window.
"Now look, there's nothing out….here…" Toshiro froze. He pulled the curtain back, to see a giant hollow standing in his front lawn. "Rangiku?"
"Yes Captain?" she asked with a blue face.
"Put him to bed, there's no such thing as monsters" he sighed before running out of the room. Rangiku sighed and put her son into bed.
"Nothing to be scared of sweetie" she kissed his head.
Reign over the frosted heavens!
Rangiku sweatdropped….
How did we not sense that?
Present, Kurosaki Household
"And then I lost the game…" Yachiru sighed, earning a chorus of groans from the room.
"Thanks Yachiru!" Masaki growled. "Now I lost the game!"
"And then you lost it again" Rukia added.
"And again" Byakuya nodded.
"So what are you doing here?" Isshin asked future Byakuya and Yachiru as they all sat in the Kurosaki kitchen.
"We're in charge of collecting information, and would like to know if you have any of relevance" Byakuya nodded.
"Only that Aizen is going to make some type of move in I guess 2 days now" Rukia sighed.
"That seems relevant" Yachiru smiled.
"Do you require our assistance?" Byakuya asked.
"Possibly, but that would require other's finding out you're here. You can be a last resort backup" Masaki told them. They nodded.
"I thought I was the last resort" Rukia asked. Masaki shook her head.
"Now you're the last last resort" she smiled.
"You shouldn't be fighting in your condition Rukia" Isshin nodded.
"You know you're taking the impending birth of your grandchild quite calmly Isshin" Byakuya looked at his former ally.
"Well, I don't wanna do my happy dance or my 'Ichigo's finally a man' dance until he gets back. Then I won't let him live it down. I'll bug him all the time and ask Rukia how he was, joke that I know he did it and all that jazz that will make his life miserable just as I had always planned. Hence he better get home soon!" Isshin grinned.
"I remember daddy telling me that story" Masaki smiled. "He said you were in the hospital for a week." Everyone around her proceeded to sweatdrop.
"That's my boy" Isshin cried.
Ami's House
"Ichi-kun" Ami grinned as she walked into her bedroom. Ichigo was on the bed reading and inwardly groaned as Ami walked in.
Damnit here we go again…
"Hello Hime what can I do for you today" he lowered his eyelids seductively.
"You know what you can do for me" she laughed, crawling on the bed and capturing Ichigo's lips.
She tastes like sweat socks
And how would you know what those taste like?
SHUT UP!
Ami had positioned herself on top of him and was working on Ichigo's shirt. He took it off but needed a way to get himself out of it this time.
I'm running out of excuses….
Need some help?
What you got in mind
Nothing, I was just asking if you needed help.
!
Well good luck to ya!
DAMNIT SHIRO!
Ichigo came back to find himself under a half naked Ami. He inwardly groaned and flipped her over, kissing her again completely un-aroused. He was busy trying to think of ideas when Ami's phone went off. She pouted a little as Ichigo got off so she could go get her phone.
I should send them a fruit basket….
"Ello?" she growled into the phone. "Oh hello Aizen-sama!" she nervously laughed "I wasn't expecting to hear from you today!"
Aizen doesn't get a fruit basket
You should send him a fruit cake instead….
"No Aizen-sama…. Mhm…. Yes… no I haven't yet… he just… I don't know… I'm not broken I think….. No…. wait what... No I can so… fine… yes sir…. I understand my lord… yes, 2 days… farewell Aizen-sama" she sighed as she clicked shut the phone. She turned to Ichigo with a sadness and disappointment etched onto her face.
"Aizen-sama says that he wants me to return to Hueco Mundo to power up before the attack…" she sighed. "He says you can't some because he's afraid that your hollow will act up."
"Hime-sama….if you don't mind my asking… why was it so important for the wench and the child to be killed?" Ichigo asked.
I can't believe I just called her a wench…
"According to Aizen a child born of true love in the soul society is different than one born on earth. The child absorbs the positive qualities of the parent's powers and spiritual abilities and none of the negative ones. Masaki was prophesized by one of the espada, who can see into the future to be one of the reasons behind Aizen's downfall. Therefore he wanted her and the rest of the children eliminated. By sending them to the past he was able to throw them off and distract their parents. His original plan was to attack the future with the children gone and the parents grieving. However he has since decided to attack the present since you all will have year's worth of training you haven't yet had. Not to mention with Masaki and Rukia dead and you on our side how can we lose" she kissed him.
"So Aizen-sama is coming here in 2 days?" Ichigo asked. "I will be honored to meet his highness." Ami smiled and gathered a few things.
"No, I don't know who Aizen-sama is sending, but he will not be here. His plan is to eliminate as many people as possible in the attack Friday and then attack when your numbers are down. I think he's genius" she smiled.
"It is all a part of Aizen-sama's plan" Ichigo nodded. That speech still freaks me out…
"I'm going to miss you Ichigo…." Ami sighed. "I'll be back before the attack Friday…" she kissed him softly. "I… I love you Ichi-kun…" she smiled before opening a garganta and leaving.
DAMNIT! She loves me! Now I feel like a dick…. But I feel like a dick touching her…. Damnit I hate women….
No you don't…
Rukia's a midget does she count?…. OW ZANGETSU!
You had that coming. Now you have 2 days to prepare… go be with your girlfriend. I'm sure she misses you.
You don't have to tell me twice
Ichigo left the home he and Ami had been staying in and raced towards the Kurosaki clinic.
Kurosaki Clinic
Rukia was sound asleep in Ichigo's bed, Masaki sleeping in the closet when a light tap at the window awoke Rukia. She sat up and rubbed her eye, before grinning ridiculously at Ichigo sitting on the windowsill. She opened it and he jumped down into her arms, stroking her hair.
"I thought you were going to stay with Ami" she asked.
"I was, but not only do I think I got enough information, but she went to Hueco Mundo to refresh her powers before the attack Friday" he smiled into her hair. "So I decided to come home and stay with you until she comes back. You're probably bored out of your mind with Masaki being in that coma… oh my god she's in a coma!" he remembered. "Is she ok how is…" he was cut off by Rukia's finger and a yawn from the closet. He looked up to see Masaki sit up and rub her eyes.
"Daddy!" she shouted, jumping out of the closet and into his arms. "I missed you daddy!" she smiled, before punching him in the face. "And THAT is for making mama cry!" she growled, Rukia white faced watching Ichigo on the ground running his sore cheek.
"Oww…..you hit like your mother" he groaned. "But wait I thought you were in a coma!" he looked at her, taking note of the fact that she looked completely fine.
"Oh right…I haven't had a chance to tell you yet…" Rukia smiled nervously.
"Tell me what?" Ichigo asked.
"Well….the whole reason Masaki was in a coma was that she was in danger of not being conceived. But when you came back Monday night…" she looked at Masaki.
"What, me snapping out of it brought her back?" he asked.
"No…well yes and no… you see" Rukia pulled the strap of her tank top nervously. "According to Riley… Masaki was conceived on April 10th 2010….." she looked at him. He was giving her a blank look. "Which was Monday…." He was still half out of it. "If Riley is correct Ichigo…. I'm pregnant with Masaki as we speak…" His eyes then got wide as he realized what she said.
"Masaki…pregnant….now!" he asked.
"Well I have no way of officially knowing for a few weeks, but that's what Riley said and Masaki seems pretty sure of it."
"I was born on January 15th 2011, which is a little over 9 months from now" she nodded, twirling a lock of orange hair in her fingers. Ichigo gawked and looked from Masaki back to his apparently pregnant girlfriend back to his future daughter who was apparently only going to be a future daughter for a little while longer.
"Well…. I…. I have no idea how to respond to this…" Ichigo groaned. "I don't care how much Shojo manga I read there is nothing to prepare you for a situation quite like this…"
"Ok, guys read Shojo all the time…. But…. How much do you read dad?" Masaki smiled.
"That's where my Fruits Basket collection went!" Rukia roared, tackling him to the ground.
"Nice to see the family back together" Masaki sweatdropped.
SUPER FUN OMAKE TIME
Science Fair with the Ishida's
It was a quiet afternoon in the Ishida household. Nemu was standing in the kitchen cooking dinner, happily humming away at some song she had heard on TV this morning. Uryu was making a dress for her birthday, which she was under no circumstances to see. Ryuji was sitting on the couch reading some sort of manga and and the twins were….
Oh yes, have I mentioned that Ryuji has three little sisters? The twins are nine, Chihiro and Chika, and then three year old Rie. All three girls had beautiful raven hair, a characteristic they had inherited from both parents. Chihiro was definitely an Ishida/Kurotsuchi. She had long hair, which she wore in a long braid behind her back similar to her mother when she was youger, Nemu since has began to where her hair lose more often, and her father's gray eyes and a pair of glasses to match. Chika on the other hand had short straight hair, a bang hanging infront of her face (kinda like Rukia) and a scowl that rivaled Ichigo's. She had her mother's striking green eyes. Chihiro was the book nerd, always studying, always getting A's while Chika was the popular girl who had the potential to be smart, just didn't want to put in the effort. Little Rie on the other hand was just adorable. She had short raven hair that was usually pulled back in a little ponytail, a Quincy cross hanging off the rubber-band used to hold her hair back. Uryu knew she would be a wonderful Quincy one day because she loved white and cried when her hair-tie broke once. She was very sweet and attached to her mother at the hip, and appeared to inherit her brains as well.
So the twins were up in their room, Chihiro studying and Chika watching something on the television.
"Chika, would you mind turning that down, it's hard to study Japan's history when all I can hear is Spongebob's vexing laughter" Chihiro sighed at her sister. Chika just looked at her.
"What?" she asked. Chihiro sighed and removed her glasses to rub her eyes.
"Have you decided what we're doing for the science fair yet?" she asked. "It's in 3 days you know."
"Why am I the one choosing? You're the smart one" Chika groaned, flipping open her phone.
"Because we have to do something dumb enough that your brain can comprehend it as well" Chihiro sighed. Chika tick marked.
"YOUR GONNA GET IT!" she roared, jumping across the room until Ryuji grabbed her.
"My big brother senses were tingling" he sighed. "Why don't you ask grandpa he's coming over today?"
"Fine!" they both stuck their tongue out at each other.
"GRANDPA!" they shouted as they ran down the stairs. Mayuri turned and was expecting a hug, not to be tackled and bombarded with questions.
"Grandpa what should we do for the science fair!" they asked. Uryu looked terrified.
"Please tell me they didn't just…" he sighed.
"Well, if it's a science project you need you came to the right man!" Mayuri cackled.
"This can only end badly…" Ryuji sighed. "I'm gonna go to Satoru's" he waved.
"But your grandfather's here" Uryu shouted.
"And I see him almost every day training" Ryuji waved again.
"Oh….right…"
So the next day the girls were sitting in Mayuri and Nemu's lab in the Soul Society waiting for him to come back with the supposedly perfect project.
"Here it is!" the mad scientist grinned. It had taken the girls a while to get used to his Soul Society appearance but they were over it.
"What is it Grandpa?" Chihiro anxiously asked. Mayuri grinned and handed her a small box.
"Mayuri-sama…. You did not just give my daughter that box" Nemu glared. Mayuri sweatdropped.
"She's a smart girl she'll figure it out" he nervously grinned before running off.
"What do we do with it?" Chika raised an eyebrow.
"I don't think…" Nemu started.
"It's all we have Mama" Chihiro gave her the puppy dog look, and Nemu sighed in defeat.
"Don't say I didn't warn you" Nemu sighed again.
The Next Day
"Ok, Chihiro and Chika Ishida please show us your project" the teacher called. The girls stood and went to the front of the classroom and Chihiro stuck out the box.
"Our grandfather gave us this box and said we would figure it out, so I hope it works" Chihiro smiled, opening the box. A little frog popped his head out of the box, and a chorus of aww's was heard around the room…. Until the frog shot a red laser beam out of its mouth at one of the students. Chika bent over and looked at the frog.
"Hey, a hollow frog!" she laughed. "Silly Grandpa, hollow frogs are for shinigami!"
"We are shinigami Chika" Chihiro glared. The frog jumped out of the box and fired another cero, inciting screams from the class. Chika glared at the frog who jumped on the desk. She then took her fist and bopped it on the head.
"And that my friends is how you make a mutated frog go smoosh" Chika smiled.
Needless to say, they got an A+
Not because Chika smooshed the frog, because they had somehow discovered a mutant frog in the first place.
"Why do I always feel like I need a nap when they're around" Uryu sighed.
