Stepping into the Urahara shop with a stagger, his cane held tightly, Ichigo went to ask for a glass of water before he came to the sight of Yoruichi, his beautiful girlfriend, slamming the enigmatic wolf's head into the kitchen bench multiple times, words empathized with each slam.
"You!"
"Ow"
"Didn't!"
"Ow"
"Say!"
"Ow"
"The!"
"Ow"
"PLAN!" with one final slam of Loki's head against the bench, Ichigo flinched at the brain matter splattering everywhere with Loki falling limp to the floor, leaving Yoruichi panting she turned to ichigo, showing her angry glare was replaced by a worried look.
Smiling at his woman, Ichigo spoke.
"It's not as worse as it looks" seeing the woman point to a guest room, she spoke with no room for arguments.
"Heal, NOW!" nodding while moving to the room, Loki stood up with a sway in his step, he shook his head while slowly and awkwardly, moving to his groups guest room, his skull healing with a soft glow, Yoruichi was left to herself before moving to Ichigo's room.
Seeing the teen sitting down, she smiled at the sight of Masuyo sleeping in her fathers arms.
Seeing him smiling down to the little one, Yoruichi stepped into the room to sit herself beside Ichigo, setting healing Kido to work, they both sighed.
The next morning
Stepping towards the Vizored warehouse with Zabuza beside him, the man holding his large sword on his back, his eyes were scanning the surrounding area.
"So, have you actually had any problems with you're hollow?" turning to ichigo with a raised eyebrow, Zabuza shook his head.
"No, unlike these guys I never developed a inner hollow, purely just me kid" seeing the doors to the warehouse open, the sounds of fighting were heard with the telltale clangs of metal against metal.
Followed by a hole to burst through the roof, making Zabuza blink before he followed Ichigo.
The moment they stepped inside did four sets of eyes zoom in on Ichigo, followed by Zabuza leaning back slowly as Mashiro and Lisa clung to him…
"Holy shit, you weren't kidding… what the hell did you're hollow do?" turning to Zabuza as much a she could, Ichigo spoke.
"He flooded the area with his reiatsu… I don't know why these two are acting like this?"
"You're hollow made our own calm down is what he did" looking up to Shinji as he had his mask to the side of his head, his eyes showed excitement.
"At first these hollows were rabid, violent beings, now though, whatever this "Urizen" did. He calmed them down they're acting like us now… though them two are the only oddities form that outburst" gesturing to Lisa as she licked Ichigo's neck, Mashiro was purring against him enthusiastically.
"His hollow basically told them "Step out of line, I eat you". Damn and I thought Alex had a atmosphere to him" turning to Zabuza, Shinji spoke.
"Who are you?" instead of answering, Zabuza ran a hand down his face, alarming all but Lisa and Mashiro as an Oni mask formed over his face.
"I have a mask too" flapping his wings as he exited Ichigo's tattoo's, Griffon spoke.
"This guys entire group is like a power house on their own, the leader, Loki. He's the top dog, can become this badass hulk thing on a whim" turning back to Zabuza with a disbelieving look, he gave a nod.
"Alright, so what are you doing here, Ichigo I can understand, but the way you said it made it sound like you have no problems?" smirking under the mask, Zabuza called out to the visoreds with a deep growl.
"Hollows, front and centre!" the following actions stunned Them all as Lisa and Mashiro were snapped out of their funk with Ichigo beside them.
Snapping into focus from the sudden movement, Zabuza gave a snort of amusement.
"Alright, you little shits, today we'll be increasing the skillset of you're hollows, which means one thing, and one thing only" turning to them with a sadistic grin.
"We're gonna have a free for all brawl" unsheathing his faithful weapon, the Kubikiribōchō, the Shinigami gulped at the weapon with increasing unease.
Sitting upon his throne with a grimace at his healed scar, Sosuke Aizen gave a grunt at the stinging sensation from his newly acquired hand, he gave it a test use with Szayelaporro stepping back with a pleased look to his eyes. Watching Aizen lift his new hand up, he gave it another test of use, seeing promising results the pinky finger suddenly flexed backwards while the other fingers remained usable.
Growling as Szayelaporro moved to adjust the finger, until they turned to the sight of Nakeem Grindina stepping towards them, stopping with a bow, Aizen spoke.
"Nakeem, to what business do you have here?" resting his head against his remaining hand, Nakeem spoke.
"I have news of my travels under Grimmjow's orders to the land of the living… and the betrayal of Ulquiorra Cifer" staring at the arrancar with a stern gaze, Aizen spoke as his new hand clenched tightly.
"Be wary of how you speak of her Grindina, she is the most loyal to me" seeing the Arrancar smirk, he spoke.
"I speak only truth, and with our recent trip to the land of the living… I have discovered a most noteworthy of information that will be music to you're ears, Aizen-sama" staring at the arrancar, Aizen spoke
"And what is this information?"
"Why the very existence of the child between Shihōin Yoruichi and Kurosaki ichigo… and the star-crossed love between Cifer and Kurosaki, Aizen-sama"
Staring at the arrancar with eyes of a plan forming, Aizen looked down in thought before he smiled, turning to Szayelaporrro, he spoke.
"Szayel, I have a new task for you" turning to the supposedly loyal fraccion of Grimmjow, Nakeem held back a smile.
"And you, do not speak of this to anyone, but please inform Aaroniero of a retrieval mission for him on the upcoming days ahead…" turning away with a bow, Aizen spoke.
"And please, do so with the utmost discretion to Grimmjow and Cifer-chan" watching the large man leave, Szayel spoke in curiosity as he finished the hands adjustments.
"May I enquire as to what you have planned, Aizen-sama?" smiling wickedly as he tested the new hand, Aizen spoke.
"Oh, simply planning the ironic death of a nuisance caused by his own flesh and blood" looking to the hand as it shined from it's golden colouring, Aizen smiled wickedly once more.
"For what is a greater insult then to have your own child used against you?"
