In this chapter you will see the abbreviation "R.W.T" (Real World Time)
In terms of time dilation, if time slows down by 50% between Soul Society and The real world it slows down to 75% between Noble Plain and The Real-World.
By the time Kazui Kurosaki-Shiba made it back to the States with the Escort of Zero Squad, Ichika Abarai was waiting for him saying, "Your father thought a friend might help!"
Mom was scary! Kazui thought as he stuttered from the memory of what her mother the women who held him for over an hour while he cried, could be so deadly.
Isshin came out of one of the spare bedrooms and noticed the conflict on his face asking, "Something you want to talk about!"
"I have this image of mom in my mind!" Kazui, said, "A women who accepted me into her life, loved me, even raised me but the women I saw tonight, she was scary, even deadly!"
Ichika slid in beside him giving Kazui's hand a gentle squeeze.
Isshin's voice was somber as he said, "Now you're trying to absorb this new information!"
He silently nods!
30 minutes later
"Some of what I'm going to tell you won't make sense until your older with a child of your own!" Taking a breath Isshin said, "Yoruichi Shihōin-Shiba was once Captain of 2nd division and The Onmitsukidō!"
"M-Mom was an …."
"Now hold on!" Isshin said, "Everyone thinks of the 2nd as assassins but that's just half of the story, your mother was a spy and a good one, did she have to hunt down the occasional rouge Shinigami yes!"
"Ichika he will need you to keep the dreams away!" Isshin explained looking at the teen Shinigami.
"Kazui" Isshin said seeing the look of disbelief in his grandson's face, "Your father married the 2 most deadly women living in Soul Society today!"
The look of fear on Kazui's face made Isshin's heart break as he said, "They wouldn't be very effective bodyguards if you could see them"
Hugging him Ichika said, "If you can see them so can the person trying to harm you!"
A Shinigami dressed in the uniform of the 22nd walks out of the shadows saying, "You have had bodyguards since the moment of your birth Lord Shiba, at first it was the 2nd division at the request of your mother!"
Looking at the man Kazui was surprised by the candor as the man continued saying, "Lord and Lady Shiba knew they could not protect you when they had to go on missions so a 6 man detachment was formed for the sole purpose of keeping you safe!"
"That won't be necessary!" Yoruichi Shiba said walking in with her sister Masaki not far behind, Yoruichi Shiba, said, "We may not be 5 anymore but "Family before everything!"
"Captain Offered Stealth Force to augment and relieve you if we need them!"
"Pop" Kazui said, "Send 2 Jigokuchō Please!"
Looking at the face of her brother Yoruichi hugs him and said, "I may not have mom's experience but I'm just as deadly as she is when I have to be now why don't you take your girlfriend and have a nice dinner just for 2."
"Kirio!" Isshin called, moments later the purple haired Kirio Hikifune appears asking, "Isshin!"
"I know my son asked you to prepare the menu for the anniversary!" Inclining his head to Kazui and Ichika he asked, "Think you could whip up a romantic dinner just for 2!"
Giving Isshin a wink she said, "Give me 30 minutes!"
As Kazui and Ichika sat down out on the patio Taichou Kirio Hikifune set out 2 plates of lobster & cracked crab winking she said, "Enjoy!"
"Don't Worry Isshin, the wine is non-alcoholic they are only 15!"
The look of relief on Isshin's face was a welcome sight as The Captain of Zero said, "Besides their drunk-on love as it is!"
The couple came back in and Kazui asked, "Pop… where is Rangiku, I need to ask her something!"
"Down the hall third door on the left!" Isshin said watching the boy walk off thinking, He want's to, but he doesn't want to hurt her!
Peeking his head around the corner and into the room Kazui calls, "Matsumoto?"
Looking up Rangiku Matsumoto said, "What can I do for you Kazui!"
"C-Can I whisper it to you!" Kazui asked.
After hearing his question Matsumoto said, "There's nothing to be embarrassed about!" Cupping his cheek Matsumoto told him, "The fact that your thinking about these things beforehand means you care about her!"
"It will hurt but only briefly!" Looking at him she said, "There will be some blood but that's normal!"
As he looked down at the floor, She could sense his growing fear and apprehension lifting his chin Matsumoto softly said, "Just be slow and gentle!"
Kazui left to find Ichika.
14 days later R.W.T.
Meanwhile Ichigo, Suì-Fēng and Yoruichi were all in their sleeping quarters when Suì-Fēng made a be-line for the bathroom and the toilet
"Urk….. Urk…" Urkk" Suì-Fēng was bringing up her dinner thinking, It's only been 3 days it can't be morning sickness… can it
"Morning sickness my UrKKK!" She mutters as her braids were being pulled back away from her face, and a hand was rubbing her back.
Suì-Fēng was about to lash out at the person when Ichigo disembodied soft voice said, "Sounds like that it's over for now! Taking a damp cloth and started cleaning her face, asking "Want to brush your teeth!"
All she did was nod taking the toothbrush and tooth paste from him.
15 minutes later Ichigo scooped up Suì-Fēng and carried her back to bed, just as she was about to protest Ichigo said, "Did it ever occur to you that I know you can walk back to bed, and I enjoy carrying you!"
Then Yoruichi's words came rushing back to the forefront of her mind as Suì-Fēng remembers, Ichigo is unlike any Captain I've ever known, hell he is unlike any person I've ever known "When he loves its with every fiber of his being!"
Whispering into her ear Ichigo told her, "When we came to the living world time sped up by 75%!"
Suì-Fēng nuzzles into his neck saying only one thing, "I Want To Go Home!"
Holding on to Suì-Fēng, Ichigo said, "Yoruichi gather what we came with then stand beside me!"
As Yoruichi takes her place beside Ichigo she watches as Ichigo closes his eyes, and any remaining remnant of them is incinerated!"
"We don't need a Senkaimon Yoruichi, I use it out of convenience, hold on tight!"
Looking at her refection in the mirror Yoruichi's eyes start growing wider as her refection starts to fade right before her eyes, and moments later they are outside squad 4 Barracks.
"D-Did we just dematerialize and then rematerialize outside the 4th"
"Yes" Ichigo said chuckling inwardly looking at his wife as Yoruichi asks, "Did you incinerate whatever trash we left in the room… with a thought!"
"Yes!" Ichigo said happy he could still surprise Yoruichi.
walking into squad 4, as Isane Kotetsu walks up to meet them Ichigo said, "Do you have anything for morning sickness!
"Right this way Taichou's" Isane said escorting them to a private room! Yuzu was finishing up the prep when she looks at Yoruichi saying, "I know you want to be here, but Kazui could use his mother"
In Yuzu's office Yoruichi asked, "What's wrong with Kazui!"
"Ever since that night Kazui has been trying to absorb some of the events!" Yuzu said, Holding up a finger Yuzu explained, "He understands why, but the image of the soft and gentle women that was her mom, has been replaced…"
"By a killer" Yoruichi said almost painfully
"He spent several days at Shihōin mansion talking to your mother and that did help, but!" Yuzu said softy, "He is also struggling with some rather grown up feelings for a certain red head teen"
"Where is he now!" Yoruichi asks her sister in-law
"Where do all Shiba men go to think" Yuzu states.
The training ground beneath Sōkyoku Hill!
Yoruichi cautiously entered the training ground cast out her senses she found her son near the hot springs!
"Kazui" Yoruichi called as she could feel the impact and to arms wrap around her!
"Why don't we sit over here and talk! Yoruichi said sofly.
"From what your aunt tells me you've had an eventful few day!" Yoruichi said looking at her son saying, "That night, I was afraid Kazui, I am over 500 years old and that night I was afraid for the first time in my life!"
His mouth moved to open and then closed again he knew mom was older than dad but 500 years. Glassy eyes look up at Yoruichi as Kazui said, "Dad told me you don't fear anyone or anything!"
"I was afraid I would not get there in time Kazui!" Yoruichi explained, brushing hair out of his eyes.
She was afraid for me? Kazui thought.
Remembering the 2 big cats in Ichigo's inner world Yoruichi said, "You remember how I can change into a cute cuddly cat right!"
Kazui nodded as Yoruichi shifted into a full-grown Black Leopard saying, "This is what I channeled that night!"
"I never get used to that, not the changing into a cat, but your voice sounding like a man" Kazui said making a face saying, "Please change back"
Ducking behind a rock Yoruichi put her clothes back on then sat beside her son asking, "So you and Ichika!"
Without looking up Kazui said, "Mom I think I screwed up!"
"Tell me what happened!" Yoruichi said in a motherly tenor.
"Well you were not here so… so I went to Matsumoto for advice!" Kazui said softly, "I was afraid of hurting her!"
"What's the problem!" Yoruichi asked.
The look on his face said, I don't know if I did it the right way.
"Kazui" Yoruichi said, "I've had quite a few boyfriends in my day, there's no right or wrong way to make love as long as it feels right in that moment that's all that matters"
"Come on" Yoruichi said, "Mama should be just about done with her check up!"
"Mom!" Kazui said.
"HMM!" Yoruichi said.
"Pop said something that confuses me!" Kazui said, "He said Ichika had to keep away the bad dreams!"
"Your dad doesn't like to talk about it, but he used to get really bad nightmares because of all the battles he was in, I keep his bad dreams away!"
The look on Kazui's face said "How"
"I keep his bad dreams away by loving him!" Yoruichi
As the two walked out of the cave, Kazui only half teasingly said, "Remind me never to make you angry!"
"Mom… why can't I feel your spiritual pressure… even when your masking it, it still has substance, now theirs nothing!"
