Farewells and hellos
Screw it the Poll is cancelled don't worry about it.
Staring at the closing Garganta beside a beaten Loki, Ichigo along with Apacci and Sung-sun stood patiently for the Garganta to close fully before turning to Loki as he reposition his jaw back into place.
"Fucking hell that hurt" giving a raised eyebrow, Ichigo spoke as they turned to urahara's shop, Neliel and her fraccion watched the sight with keen interest.
"Starting you're plan with. "You lot need to leave" probably wasn't the smartest way to give them the idea of being double agents" seeing Loki wave him off, he merely left the trio with Apacci rubbing her left elbow nervously.
"Now what?" turning to Cyan Sung-sun and Apacci, the two shrugged before Ichigo looked to the address Kisuke had given him, his nerves at their most stressed at the moment due the weeks of Yoruichi's absence at their end, he sighed while running a hand through his hair, which had grown to resemble Kuro's.
"I don't know, for all I know I'm supposedly a father when my first girlfriend finally sends a signal to be brought back, I'm running on anxiety and nerves as of right now" moving to follow Ichigo as he turned to the shop.
"I hope Harribel-sama will be ok, we did have to attack her to make it seem authentic"
Turning to the snake mistress, Ichigo smiled.
"With what Loki and Starrk did with Ulquiorra's eye thing they made sure it showed what we want them to see, not that I like seeing that happened no matter what Ulquiorra says" sighing as they moved to enter the shop, Urahara came into view with two faux bodies for both Sung-sun and Apacci, thankfully clothed.
"Right on time I managed to finish these for you two lovely ladies" tossing the gigai to Apacci and Sung-sun, the two quickly entered to get a feel for them.
Testing their limbs with stretches, Ichigo entered his own body, showing his exhaustion as he began to leave with the two. Failing to notice a man watching from a rooftop upside down.
Stepping into his room and closing the door, Ichigo opened his window for Apacci and Sung-sun to climb through, the snake mistress giggled softly.
"You're father is the most funniest thing I've witnessed?" giving the quiet woman an amused look, Ichigo spoke.
"You haven't seen him in the mornings" setting himself down, Ichigo felt the two climb into his bed with him, both showing smiles of contempt.
"I should invest in a lock for my door"
"You are one lucky bastard" turning his head, the sight of a broken Kon made him blink.
"What the hell happened to you, Kon?"
The only response he got was a plush toy trying in vain to strangle him.
"IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIICHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII-" BAM!
"Go!?" was all Keigo could say as Ichigo stood with his arm outstretched to clothesline his friend, Apacci following him in amusement with her own uniform on, walking by Mizuiro as he stared at her with hearts in his eyes, confusing himself at the action, he failed to notice Apacci follow Ichigo to the faculty office to get her a student pass.
Stepping into the classroom, Orihime, Chad and Uryu greeted him, ignoring Keigo's outburst, Mizuiro attempted to once more grope Orihime, the bi-pervert was knocked down by both Orihime and Tatsuki who had her arm covered by a cast and glove.
The two shared a fist bump.
"Hey, Tatsuki"
"Hey Ichigo" moving to sit down with their group, the door to the class opened with Ochi entering.
"GOOOOD MORNING. Now sit you're butts down" moving to said seats, Ichigo sat in wait as Ochi called out the classroom, Ichigo's Shinigami badge suddenly yelled wildly of a hollow until it stopped.
Making those that had been to the tree relax as they spotted Alua flying in the distance.
"Hopefully they remembered to hide themselves" turning to Chad, Ichigo nodded with a shrug before turning to Ochi.
"Alright, we got two new students for this semester, so I don't want any news of trouble you hear" moving to the doors, Ochi lead two people inside, one being Apacci… the other a blonde guy.
"Alright, please introduce yourselves." Seeing her chance, Apacci spoke while smiling.
"Names Emilou Apacci, yes I have different coloured eyes, even think about talking shit about them I will break bones" giving a friendly wave, Ichigo held back a snort at the arrancars words, his eyes lingered on how the uniform clung to her curves, she was directed to a seat beside Ichigo.
What followed next was the blonde to introduce himself…
'Hirako Shinji… why backwards, wait, didn't Loki and Kisuke mention him during a discussion?' deciding to keep an eye on this man, the class resumed with Shinji sitting ahead of him.
Giving a friendly greeting, Ichigo's soul badge rung loudly, sitting down calmly with it still ringing, Ichigo sent out Griffon and Shadow to deal with a patrol, Nightmare remaining in his soul tattoo's those spiritually aware failing to see Shinji stop himself from gawking at the animals outside the windows.
Setting himself down with a book in hand, Cyan Sung-sun and Apacci lazed against him with contempt smiles.
"If that is what high school is like I might enjoy it" giving the woman a smile, ichigo spoke.
"It's not always like that" was all he said as they ignored Kon's mumbling on the desk, the trio stared at him thrashing.
"Good idea with sewing his mouth shut by the way Cyan" seeing the woman smile at the praise, she spoke.
"If only I could do that to another annoying male in Hueco Mundo" moving to question her, his soul badge went off with him sighing, waiting for a minute, he took it and ejected his soul out with his Cane clicking on the wooden floor.
Opening the window, he turned to the duo who were mid way of undressing his body.
"If you wanted to do that you could have just asked"
"Sorry" shaking his head in amusement, he flashed towards the Hollow.
Seeing the pig faced being turn towards him, Shadow appeared above it to saw it's head in half with a gesture of Ichigo's cane.
Moving to return home, his sensed came to life with his Cane shooting up to deflect a strike from behind… showing Hirako Shinji smiling at him.
"Hirako… ok I'm not as surprised as I should be" seeing the man give him a raised eyebrow, he spoke.
"I don't know whether to be insulted or not at that" moving to apologise, the two sensed more hollows arrive.
Turning to Shinji, Ichigo spoke.
"Excuse me one moment" with that he left Shinji on the rooftop, sighing at this he kicked dirt with a pout before he jumped at Ichigo's return.
"Okay, back on track, why exactly did you attack me?" summoning Shadow to his side, the panther snarled warningly towards Shinji and blinked at the demon cat, he flinched as griffon joined the interrogation… thought he felt like something was missing from this.
"Well, I didn't think you'd react like that so I was gonna go with the mysterious approach… you kind of ruined it" shrugging at the teen, ichigo snorted while leaning on his Cane with both hands.
"Cut the jokes just tell me what you want?"
"Have you been hearing a voice in you're head… a voice not you're Zanpakutō?" seeing Ichigo narrow his eyes in thought, he snapped his fingers with a look of realization.
"Oh, you mean Urizen, I thought he was a part of my Zanpakuto as well" seeing the casual air of Ichigo, Shinji gawked at him.
"He's a inner Hollow you moron, hasn't he tried to take control at all!?" seeing Ichigo blink with a raised eyebrow, he shrugged.
"Not as of lately, he did try and fight a captain, but that's about it, when that tree was here he spoke rarely, gave me a mask though-" it was that moment of dawning that ichigo came to the realisation.
'Kuro… what exactly is Urizen?'
The one to answer him, was both welcoming and worrying.
'You speak as if I'm not here' turning to Shinji with wide eyes, they stared in alarm as Shinji now wore a Hollows mask that resembled an Egyptian pharaohs mask.
"I see he spoke to you just now. To answer you're un-asked question, I am a visored, one of them at least, just like you" relaxing his stance as Ichigo stood frozen, Shinji continued.
"Despite what they say, they will either turn on you when all is done. You don't belong with them, join us and-" turning to the right as a hand shot out of an opening in the air, it was reaching for Ichigo if not for Griffon to grab the raised hand to pull him beside Shinji who stared at the sight.
Watching a large being step out, the mask all but recognisable with ichigo's rage building up.
"Grand Fisher, you disgusting bastard!" growling as Shadow roared at the hollow as it's human eyes peered out of his hollow mask, Shinji stared at the hollow with indifference.
"It seems you two have history?" turning to Shinji with narrowed eyes, Ichigo brought his Wakizashi out.
"This vile thing killed my mother!" this gained an evil laugh of cruelty from Grand Fisher who now floated above them.
"And she tasted good for a powerless quincy" it was that moment of revelations that costed Ichigo a free hit as he was sent flying by a strike from Fisher's free hand, moving to attack Shinji, the blonde sent him back with a simple kick before joining Ichigo's side.
"Need help?" reaching down to help the teen out, he stopped however as Ichigo's face was covered by a human mask made of porcelain material, a V painted over the eyes, it's blank face showed rage as he stood up, glaring at fisher, Ichigo turned to Shinji with his Wakisashi raised above his head.
"Sever his legs for me" plunging his Zanpakuto into his chest, Shinji shielded his eyes to feel an ominous aura around him, looking back to ichigo he was paid the vision of a demonic being before him holding a Katana.
"Because his head is ours" watching Grand Fisher land a foot from them, he stopped at the sight of Ichigo/Yamato/Urizen glaring at him with unadulterated hatred.
Seeing the mask, he gave out a laugh.
"So, you've fallen from grace, This will be more enjoyable than-UGK!" feeling his legs fail him, Grand Fisher turned behind him to see Shinji giving a lazy Salute before pointing past him.
Turning back to Ichigo, his eyes widened as the fused being stalked towards him with violent intentions.
"You, will be nothing but a memory, as you should have always been" fully unsheathing the Katana, the being before Fisher swung several times with his entire being encompassed by a ball of darkened energy, Ichigo swung one mighty swing that sent him sliding behind Grand Fisher who stood on his arms.
Approaching Ichigo as the mask receded, Shinji watched the teen carefully wipe blood from the blade before slowly sheathing it.
"What exac-" was as far as Shinji got before after it was fully sheathed, did Grand Fisher exploded into perfectly cut square pieces that faded, the only remains were the filthy blood stains.
Turning back to Shinji as his Bankai receded, Ichigo spoke.
"I have school tomorrow as you most likely already know, so just hand me an address so I can go back home, I've hand it for tonight with avenging my mom, killing the fucker with my own hands, I need a nap… maybe a vacation" watching the teen walk by with Shadow prodding beside him with a hop in it's step, Griffon landed beside Shinji.
"He is way to laid back about a hollow residing in his soul" turning to Griffon, the two stared for a minute before Griffon spoke.
"After that tree fiasco he'll expect anything wild to happen" the response Shinji gave was.
"YOU CAN TALK!?" the look of amusement Griffin had was one of contempt.
"Aaaaah, get's em every time. See ya Pharaoh wannabe" with that he followed after Ichigo with a flap of his wings.
Meanwhile in Urahara's shop
Stepping out of an open Vortex with a sigh, Golden eyes opened with renewed life as they took in Urahara's shop, looking to the left, Loki looked at her with a smile as she held a bundle of cloth in her arms, she smiled as Loki suddenly gushed over the baby in her arms, showing the baby held heterochromia in her eyes, the left sporting Ichigo's brown, while the right held Yoruichi's Gold.
"So, does it have a name?"
"Looking up to Ichigo as he stepped into the shop with a wide smile, Yoruichi approached him with confidence, grabbing his collar, she brought him into a gentle kiss, releasing her lover, Yoruichi spoke with her head against his chest.
"Masuyo, it means Benefit the world… Thought you'd like it"
Giving a chuckle while looking down to their daughter, his daughter, he smiled while tickling the infants nose.
"Like it… I love it" looking up to Yoruichi's tearful eyes, they shared an embrace with Masuyo giggling at them.
The moment however was ruined by the sound of sniffling behind them.
Turning the sight of Loki wiping his eyes, he waved them off.
"Don't worry about me, just a softy for this kind of shit, It'll pass"
Turning back to each other, Yoruichi smiled.
"So, what did I miss?"
"Well, where do I start?"
