Urahara's Shoten – Reader's POV

Kanari and Masaki have arrive at Urahara's Shoten … they are met outside by Isshin and Hiyori, as the car door opens, to everyone's surprise Masaki runs out hugging her Ojiisan,

As Urahara, Yoruichi, and Masaru step outside … Yoruichi looks at Masaru saying 'you did not tell me that she had Masaki' ….

Masaru laughs, as he walks back into the Shoten, retrieving a package Hajime had left at the house for Masaki, saying 'I guess we are even'…

As Kanari gets out the car she is not surprised to see Masaru walking up, taking her bags from the driver…

But she was surprised when she walked in looking for Mari and Katsuro, and she found only their Gigai …

She now stands in the back room looking down on four empty Gigai …Mari … Katsuro … Masaki and Hajime …

Kanari stood blinking in disbelief, as Urahara stood there saying for the 5th time … 'they took Mari to the 4th' …

She finally screamed... 'And you let them take her … how hurt was she … and where is Katsuro'

They replied he accompanied his mother … she is still in disbelief, but she says 'of course' …

She then looks up at her friends who surround her and say 'we must discuss our next steps' …

Urahara then states are you still going through with it …

She looks seriously in his eyes saying 'I must more than ever now; since his has taken Hajime'

As they start to discuss the plans for obtaining entry into Hueco Mundo, she then pulls out the note that Masaki had handed to her…

Urahara read it and grins saying 'okay. I can work with this'…

It is then they start to discuss who would accompany her …

Hiyori says, 'it is my intention to go and retrieve my Oigosan [Nephew], but given the opportunity to Kill Aizen I will'…

She looks to Arashi saying 'do not get in my way … your Ni Sama is your problem… are you in agreement'…

Kanari looks at the short girl, who over the years has become a dear friend …. Saying… 'Hai … Hiyori Sama… I understand ….Thank you'

Kanari then looks at the list Yoruichi made, she nods with agreement until she gets to two names it is then her eyebrow raises …

She looks to Masaru who is next to her watching her carefully.….

Masaru looks at the first name and says in order to set things right he must be at your side, and you know that … and it is his right ….

She rolls her eyes; because she knows it is true …

She is still nervous about facing him, now that he knows all that occurred …

The other, well we feel he will want to go …

She looks at Isshin, as he says…. 'he will go, just to be with me' …

She says 'There are 10 Epsada, they have been trained for this … as we have been training for this, will he make it'

Isshin laughs hard saying 'my Son is a lot like you, he is strong and has a genuine heart … he will fit in just fine'

She then says … 'what do you think the old man will do… he can stop them from going "

Urahara speaks up saying, 'he will support anything that will have you join his war against Aizen, as long was he does not know your real reason' …

Just as she stands, she hears a voice; behind her saying 'we will go too'… she turns around to see the Chad and the Quincy standing behind her…

She looks at Chad asking, 'why would you want to help me' …

Chad looks to her saying, 'usted está Vienta Tormenta ... que ella ha ayudado a muchos, y le pide nada a cambio ... ustedes son dignos y de ayudar a morir por' ...

[You are Vienta Tormenta... she who has helped many, and asks for nothing in return ... you are worthy of helping and dying for ...]

Ishida says 'I know he has your son, I will help you' …

She looks at them and says pero gracias... No puedo ... [thank you but ... I can't ...]

She looks to Urahara as to say are you sure …

he nods from behind his fan saying 'they are formable fighters… the best … and since you have taken the humans as your cause for fighting… It seems right that humans would be your guard for this adventure'…

She looks to them telling them fine, go now and rest … they will leave from here tomorrow night, she must first go to Soul Society to retrieve what is hers….

With that Ishida and Chad take their leave ….

Kanari and Urahara are standing watching them leave ….when Urahara, holding his fan open with a sarcastic tone says … 'Aizen probably knows what you have planned '…

She looks up at him saying… 'I am not stupid, and Aizen is no fool he ways knew … I would one day come for my Ni Sama … do you have everything ready on this end' …

Urahara nods his head saying all was arranged we got your message after you landed in Tokyo ….

She now looks to Isshin who is grinning at his granddaughter who is now modeling her new uniform telling him she is to marry Hajime …

He looks up at Kanari and hands her a tube contains two scrolls…

Kanari now is looking at Masaki in her new uniform, it is leather jeans, green t-shirt which accents her beautiful eyes, the jacket is a butter soft leather Matsuri Happi Coat with teal trim, it provides protection for her small arms, she now wears black leather sneakers, her Zanpakuto which has shades of teal is attached to her waist… her shoulder level silver hair is in a ponytail hanging out a black leather baseball cap …

She wears the 9th division insignia in gold on her right jacket sleeve ...around her neck is the same necklace that the boys wear with the 9th division insignia.

Kanari looks curiously to Masaru, as he replies each girl asked for a new uniform for their birthday so … they designed it and we had it made for them …

She laughs as she asks 'Masaki do you like it' …

Masaki smiles saying 'oh yes …it is perfect'...

Kanari, she looks to Isshin saying … your thoughts … the old fox also just laughs with approval, saying 'with the hat she reminds me of her mother' …

With that answer … Kanari looking to Masaru saying 'I think it is time we change to go home' …

They walk into backroom …Kanari lays down next to Hajime's Gigai as Masaru lies next to Mari's Gigai they use their soul glove and reveal their true selves, leaving their Gigai laying on the mats….

Masaru walks out first his Shinigami uniform is modified the pants are leather jeans, on his feet are soft leather ankle length boots, his shirt is form filling white t-shirt with long sleeves.

His coat is a long leather duster with the 9th division insignia on the front left, his hair is long like his sons and pull back hanging in a ponytail …

His Zanptukuo is on his back with her hair attached to the Pommel … he walks out and goes to the training room and waits with the others for Kanari

Then Kanari walks out her hair has been cut so it no longer hangs below her waist it, it length is now just to her mid back… it too is pulled back in a ponytail, which is laced in jasmine… around her neck is a golden choker with the 9th insignia …

Her uniform is different … she now wears a leather vase which similar to her husband and son, in certain places it has small vents so when she releases her Reiatsu while using her shunko her top would not be blown away, it accents her amble breast, soft chiseled abs and strong slender arms,

Her pants are a butter soft leather low waisted and form fitting, it too has hidden little vents in the sides, it forms around her small waist, rear end and her legs and pant legs go down each leg into knee length soft black leather boots with 3 inch knees..

On her waist, she wears Spadonari wrapped, along with six small daggers, the small tube that Isshin had given her and three braids of her hair loosely hanging;

In her arms is a long teal kimono with embroidered with gold chrysanthemums, light green leaves and two birds on the back. Chrysanthemum stems adorn the front and the butterfly sleeves…

She puts on her Kimono allowing it to flow open as she walks, in her hands are her trademark glasses which now she stands looking at as if trying to decide something…

She quickly puts the glasses down and saying 'NO more hiding' … and continues to walk to the training room…

Once in the training room she sees Urahara, Hiyori and Yoruichi who all comments approving their new uniforms…it is then that she approaches Isshin and Masaki, as the others quietly watch.

She reaches to her waist taking one of braid off then calls Masaki over to her, she looks to Isshin, who with a serious look gives her a nod of approval, she says 'Masaki this is my hair it is holds my essence with it I can protect you and I find you if you are lost … I would like to attach it to your Zanptukuo, therefore making your apart of my guard, apart of my family' …

Masaki looks to her Ojiisan then to Kanari with tears in her eyes she says 'Hai'….

Kanari using her Kido attaches her hair to Masaki's Zanptukuo …

They, all, Masaki, Isshin, Masaru, and Kanari now stand together … it is then Kanari summons Spadonari and opens the gate… and they enter ….

30 minutes ago - 1st Division Main hall – Reader's POV

Hisagi stands before Yamamoto… he is thinking of what Tousen told him of how she was imprisoned while she carried their child …

his Reiatsu is flaring with rage ... he looks to the floor, because he can not even look at the him ….

Yamamoto speaks as the other captains and vice captains look on he says … 'Vice Captain, you need to lower your Reiatsu and calm down' …

Hisagi still looking at the floor, as he says … 'Sotaicho is it true what I was told' …

Yamamoto looks at him… his face now reflects sorrow, because he knows that he is going to say...

'Tousen Taicho told me … that she was imprisoned here, during the time she carried my child'… as he says the words everyone in the room except four captains and one Vice captain looked up with shock, Rukia standing behind Ukitake Taicho, starts to quietly cry …

Yamamoto says 'that was a time we are not proud of … Her power is great, Aizen and the others had defected and we feared that she would turn her back on us and join Aizen, so I decided to imprison her even through she was with child' …

Hisagi replies, his eyes still looking away from him, 'what made you release her'…

Yamamoto, his eyes are closed and his body shivers as he remembers that night she left ….

He replies his tone reflects sadness, 'she had summoned us to her cell, and she sat there the child was coming …

Her Zanpakuto Spadonari took control; she placed a barrier around Arashi and would not let anyone near her as she screamed in pain giving birth,

Spadonari spoke saying … if we did not let them go the human world … that…. she would destroy all Sentiei …

I told her she could not go free being as powerful as she was …she kept replying … she was imprisoned unjustly and would be set free.'

Yamamoto looking up with a smirk says … 'Arashi is smart and calculating, her military strategies revivals Aizen's, and her strength 10 years ago was formable ….

She distracted us … she positioned her self within the barrier when she was at her weakest point, so we could not touch her while we where outside standing close to the barrier, before any of us knew it … your son … Hajime was born ……

Once she gave birth, she became once again powerful…. That is when she showed us her Bankai and almost killed us…'

It is at this point Kenpachi, who is standing with Yachiru snickers loudly, saying 'it was beautiful'

While the other three shake their heads with a painful memory ….

Yamamoto looks at him with a hard glare, while they others stood there in amazement of what they heard …

Hisagi, looking up now says …'so my wife escaped your prison' ….

Yamamoto says … 'No …. As she stood there holding your son, she said Soul Society could not afford to be at war with Aizen and with her...

That with Aizen we stood a change to survive, but with her... to protect her child … she would kill us all, and gladly accept her fate'

Rukia and Karin glance at each other with a look of total understanding ….

'So she forced an agreement upon us; the letter which we gave you, Mari, Masaru and Katsuro would be her and Hajime's guard, we would not interfere with her or her son unless she initiated contact, and we would not mention any of what happened to you or anyone …

Up until now, we have kept the agreement; with hopes that she would forgive us for what was done to her and if needed she would side with us against Aizen'

Hisagi now glares at Yamamoto saying what are your intentions Sotaicho? … 'What are your intentions with my wife'…

Yamamoto looks at him, and throws the magazine down on the floor saying 'she has sent her message…. She intends to return …but apparently she has unfinished family business … and once that is handled I believe she will side with us'….

Hisagi becomes angry again saying… 'She knows not was she is doing … she will get herself and my son killed'…

Hitsugaya, steps out…'his emotions are once again high as he says he has my daughter, it is no longer about her family business'

That is when Katsuro steps from behind Kenpachi and surprisingly Ana is standing at his side …

Rukia, Ichigo, and Byakuya each have a look of surprise on their faces as they look across the room at each then to Ana, who they though was locked down and secure at the Kuchiki manor with the Nobles …

Katsuro stands his Shinigami uniform is modified on his feet are black sneakers, the pants are black leather jeans like he usually wears in the human world, his shirt is a t-shirt white like his fathers with a black fitted motorcycle jacket, on the arm and front left of the jacket is a 9th Division golden buttercup insignia…

Around his neck is the necklace given to him by Hisagi, his Zanptukuo is on his back as her hair is attached and wrapped around the pommel… his hair is pulled back from his face and hanging down his back …

Ana, her uniform, a birthday gift from Katsuro and Hajime, is leather jeans, and sneakers like Masaki, t-shirt is lilac with white flowers and her jacket is the same as Masaki's but it is black with lilac trim …

She too wears the 9th division insignia in gold on her right jacket sleeve and a golden necklace with the 9th, insignia….Her Zanptukuo is on her hip, as her orange hair is pulled down her back … she looks adorable …

They all look at the strangely dressed Shinigami, as they step into the middle of the room, standing next to Hisagi …

Katsuro looks at Hitsugaya, as he calmly says … 'Hajime and Ojisan Tousen will watch over Masaki' …

He glances up at Hisagi rolling his eyes with irritation then back to Hitsugaya saying … 'since Hajime and Masaki are now betrothed, they are both obligated to see to her safety … and that still makes it family …more to the point 9th Division business'…

Hitsugaya looks at the arrogant unyielding young boy with rage, Katsuro ignores his rage, looking around at all of the Taichos and continues saying 'my Obasan had no intention of encountering Ojisan Tousen here or in Hueco Mundo… We where moving to a place where Aizen would not be so powerful, if he found out … that way no one would be affected … no one would get hurt'

He continues saying …'but Aizen told Ojisan Tousen the only thing that would made him angry, made him come and take Hajime and consequently Masaki' …

Katsuro, looks at Yamamoto and accusingly saying ... 'My Obasan always said that Aizen had a spy in the Gotei 13th … now this proves it … how else would Aizen know to tell Ojisan Tousen things that had happen here, things that where not to be spoken of' …

It is at that point that everyone becomes quiet at the logic the young boy has stated….

He now stands in front of Hitsugaya, saying 'instead of focusing your rage on placing blame on my Obasan or my Ojisan you need to place it in finding your spy' …

Karin glares at her husband telling him to calm down … never taking his eye off of her he pulls back …

Hisagi now pulls Katsuro over to him, looking down at him; he asks … … lo que es su tía que quería hablar con su tío sobre Tousen?

[What is it that your Obasan wanted to talk to your Ojisan Tousen about?] …

Katsuro looks around the room, then to Ana who nods her head as to say tell him, he now looks up at Hisagi saying… ella ha encontrado la razón por qué él ha dejado … ella sabe lo que él busca … ella lo debe decir lo que lo es y se lo toma a donde él lo puede lograr; por lo tanto lo llevando de Aizen y Sociedad de Alma … no hasta que eso sea hecho puede ella vuelve y lucha por su lado

[She has found the reason why he has left … she knows what he is looking for … she must tell him what it is, and take him to where he can achieve it; therefore taking him away from Aizen and Soul Society … not until that is done can she return and fight by your side] …

Hisagi eyes now reflect understanding … his Reiatsu has calmed …

Ana then looks up saying almost in tears … con todo lo que ha sucedido ... ahora es difícil ... será una batalla ... Ella va a morir antes de que Ella sigue para que Aizen mantenerlo...

[With all that has happened ... it is now made difficult ... it will be a battle ... she will die before she continues to let Aizen keep him ...]

Hisagi now smiling at the children, he bends down and hugs them both whispering ... no te preocupes voy a estar a su lado ... es una batalla que vamos a ganar...

[Don't worry … I will be at her side ... it is a battle we will win ...]

He stands, taking them each by hand and starts walk to the position of the 9th , Kenpachi steps forward only to see the look in Hisagi's eyes of accepting any challenge he may have, Yachiru pulls his selves shaking her head…

Kenpachi looks at her then back to Hisagi and nods with approval allowing him to position the children behind him in the ranks with Karin …

Ichigo, Rukia, and Byakuya quietly observe, but the look on their faces indicates someone has a lot of questions to answer, especially regarding Ana new designation of division …

It is at that time that a sentry enters the room stating a gate has opened at Urahara's Shoten … it is Arashi Taicho and three others

Yamamoto now turns and looks to Unohana saying … 'Mari Sama's condition' ….

Unohana replies she is fine; 'I would like her to go and check her once again'…

Yamamoto nods and Unohana quietly leaves …

Yamamoto now looks down thinking … he then tells the sentry when she comes through the gate tell her to go the 4th where Mari Sama is resting, and then to PLEASE come and see us here, and keep him inform on where she is at all times …

The Sentry says Hai…and vanishes

Hisagi and the children now have grin on theirs faces, as everyone looks up at Yamamoto with surprise … he replies 'she going here anyway, I would rather we allow her to go peacefully verses she kills anyone that gets in her path' …

Ana steps forward bowing saying 'Sotaicho … please let us to go meet her at the gate' …

Ichigo steps out saying … 'Hell … NO' … As Byakuya eyes and Reiatsu rises

she glares at her father then to her uncle saying … 'Katsuro is the only one who can calm her … we must reassure her, that the purpose for bringing Obasan Mari here was to ensure she and her unborn child are healing properly, and it is not a trap' …

Ichigo replies… hard saying … 'then he can go you will stay'… Byakuya and Rukia tensely observe the exchange between father and daughter

Ana looks at her father … her Reiatsu skyrockets as her eyes start to quickly fate to gold, signifying her hollow transformation beginning ... replying just as hard, saying … 'I… will… not …leave… his.. Side … and...I...am …going … with …him'

Katsuro put his hand on her shoulder, looking at Ichigo calmly saying ... 'enough… she will go with me this time, and we will bring our Obasan back, Obasan Kanari is her godmother, she will not harm her, actually it will help calm her' …

Ana is still angry … her eyes are fating to gold fast…

Rukia is now standing next to Ichigo, who is now outraged saying to Katsuro …' how dare you, tell me what do with my daughter' …

Katsuro then says …'calm yourself, you are making her upset, and we do not want her to loose control do we' … as he softy speaks his eyes start to turn a gold color signifying his hollow transformation beginning, the only difference is he is in total control as he blinks returning the color to brown …

Rukia and Ichigo both pull back with surprise … Katsuro … grins as he softly says to Ana… 'Obasan Hiyori always said he was a hothead' … causing her to giggle and her eyes return her violet color …. Katsuro shake his head as he now turns facing Yamamoto …

Yamamoto looks at Ichigo, who is still in shock at what he has just seen… then to Rukia and Hisagi who nod with agreement …,

Yamamoto then nods as he says to the two children go … Katsuro looks at Ana saying 'race you' …they start laughing loudly as they flash step out the room…

Ichigo, Hitsugaya and the others stands in shock over what had just happened as Hisagi and Kenpachi now laughs hard…

Reader's POV

Kanari, Isshin, Masaru and Masaki are coming through the gate when, Kanari feels Hajime's presence ... she stops as her eyes turn white….

She says 'Hajime are you alright, where is your Ojisan'…

he replies … 'he is here '…

She then says 'Hajime do not leave his side … We are coming' …

He says … 'Okaasan… I want you to see the Epsada' …

She says… 'YES…..Hajime show us '…

as Kanari says show us … those who have her essence (hair) attached to their Zanptukuos … Mari, Katsuro, Masaru, Masaki, and those they touch are now linked …. Katsuro touches Ana, Masaki touches Isshin …and Mari who is being checked by Unohana Taicho touches her…

Hajime turns showing them the face of the Epsada … He shows them Aya … who changes her disguise along with four fraccions and enters into a Gate

When the link is broken Mari who is still weak just looks to Unohana … who nods her head and walks out …
