Note: This chapter starts right after everyone read the letter in chapter 5
Ichigo's letter caused so much chaos for the spiritual residents at Karakura Town. When the Shinigami left Urahara Shōten, Orihime stood up and immediately left. Chad sighed and punched the ground in anger. Chad hadn't felt this emotion in a very long time. He broke his promise to Ichigo. He broke his promise to his best friend. Chad realizes he needs to let his anger out. So…Chad left Urahara's shop to find something to let his anger out on. Yuzu, Karin, Uryū and Ryūken went to go find the grief-stricken Masaki. Those four split up looking for Masaki. Yuzu and Karin managed to find Masaki and called the others. Masaki was at the riverside; the place where she died. She was sitting on the riverbed. The four could hear sniffling from Masaki. The four decided to give Masaki some space and turned around ready to walk away when they heard Masaki.
"Your four, you could come down." Masaki said. The four stopped, turned around and slowly walked to Masaki.
"Sorry Masaki." Ryūken said.
"For what? Ichigo?" Masaki asked.
"Yes. I am-" Ryūken began to say.
"Don't be." Masaki replied.
"What?" Ryūken asked.
"It's not your fault, if you were introduced earlier and did all of this, that would cause me to be angry. However, Ichigo never knew of you when he was younger." Masaki explained.
"What about us?" Karin asked.
"For you three… you are also not to blame." Masaki said. She then turned to look at Uryū. "Uryū you are young and you likely you had no experience in dealing with what Ichigo went through. After all based on what I have seen in regards to you and your father likely you would have bottled it up since you also had no one to talk to." Masaki guested. She then looked at Yuzu and Karin. "As for you two, I can't blame you ether." Masaki said.
"Why Okaa-san? We hurt Ichi-nii." Yuzu asked.
"Remember Ichigo's letter. He said that it is not yours or your sister's fault. He understood your actions. Ichigo understood that you two would listen to your father since he is a Doctor." Masaki said. "Sometimes I question if that certificate is real or a fake that Urahara made for him." Masaki thought.
"So, Masaki. How are we going to take care of your chain since it slowly deteriorating?" Ryūken asked.
"Well… from what Isshin told me about Soul Society, if a soul is Konsō'ed they are sent to Soul Society and loses their Chain of Fate." Masaki started.
"So?" Ryūken.
"Sometimes I question how you're a doctor with that impatience." Masaki joked.
"Get to the point obasan." Uryū said.
"Like father like son." Masaki joked.
"HEY!" Ryūken and Uryū yelled.
"Anyways, it may be possible for me to be brought to Soul Society directly. If I am at Soul Society and I still have my Chain of Fate, a trusted Shinigami will perform Konsō'ed there. That way I get rid of my Chain and don't need to worry about anyone trying to find me in Soul Society since I'm already there." Masaki proposed.
"It is possible. We may need to discuss it with Urahara." Ryūken said.
"Ok." Masaki said. With that the five returned back to Urahara Shōten.
Scene Change: Urahara Shōten
"Welcome back. What can I do to help?" Urahara asked.
"We were wondering if you could open a portal to Soul Society." Uryū asked.
"Why?" Urahara questioned.
"We were thinking if it is possible to taken Masaki to Soul Society to get rid of her Soul Chain." Ryūken said.
"I see…" Urahara said. "Likely you would need a Shinigami to meet you somewhere in the Rukongai." Urahara said.
"Yes." Masaki said.
"Well… I will likely ask Kuchiki-san to come here and then she will escort Masaki-san somewhere in Rukongai so that the Sōtaichō doesn't find out." Urahara said.
"Why Rukia?" Yuzu asked?
"She was a resident of the Rukongai before she became a Shinigami." Urahara said.
"I see…" Yuzu said.
"How long would it take for Rukia to come over here?" Karin asked.
"I'm not sure. I'll send a message to Yoruichi to see when Kuchiki-san can come here." Urahara said.
"Ok." Masaki said.
"Bye Urahara-san." Yuzu and Karin said as everyone left Urahara Shōten.
Scene Change: Orihime's house
Once Orihime found out what Ichigo did, she immediately ran back to her house. She entered her room and locked the door. Orihime then closed all the blinds in her room and pulled out a locked briefcase. Orihime then pulled out a key from her breast. She then used that key to open the briefcase.
"Ichigo…." She said as she stares at what lies inside the briefcase. It shouldn't be called a briefcase anymore. It could be called a small shrine of some sort. A shrine dedicated to the person that she truly loves. Ichigo Kurosaki. What are presented upon opening the briefcase are photos: Ichigo in his school uniform, Ichigo happily eating his lunch prepared by his younger sisters, Ichigo lost in thoughts as he looked outside the classroom window, Ichigo kicking a soccer ball during physical education class, Ichigo tripping over a small stone and in the center, Ichigo looking ever so happily towards the camera...except that the photo is missing a piece of itself. Cut out…or rather ripped apart was now a photo of Ichigo alongside a woman's body posing for the camera. The head of the woman in the photo was ripped out and replaced with Orihime's adorable smiling face.
"Oh Ichigo…. please don't be so sad. If I could, I would take care of you and help you overcome whatever it is that is making you feel so negative…" Suddenly her phone began to ring. Lost in thought she ignored the cell phone and allowed it to go to voicemail. Then the phone rang again. This time, Orihime decided to answer her phone. She reaches for her cell phone through the small luggage in her school bag. "This is Orihime speaking." She said.
"Orihime…no, Inoue. It's me. Uryū." Uryū said.
"Uryū is there something wrong? Calling at this hour…" She said. She looked at her clock near her bed to see that it was seven in the evening.
"Oh...nothing much. I wanted to tell you that we managed to find Masaki." Uryū said.
"Really?" Orihime asked. "Did Urahara-san perform Konsō on her?" Orihime asked.
"No. We are going to try and perform Konsō in Soul Society." Uryū said.
"I see… Is there anything else?" Orihime asked.
" I just wanted to call to ask how you're doing. You know… knowing how close you are to Ichigo yet not being able to do much of anything to support him because of his father's request." Uryū said.
"Ah… yes. I'm feeling quite fine as of right now. Thank you for calling to ask me." Orihime said. She said those words in such a happy tone. The boyfriend of such a girl would be so glad to hear such words in a warm tone. However, behind those words or rather on the other side of the line was one that was longing for much more. Those dead eyes wanting to search for something much more that would satisfy the pain and suffering that resides in the heart of the young girl. She wants Ichigo. She doesn't want Uryū.
"Why am I with this man? Don't I love Ichigo?" She thought.
"Yes, I do. I love Ichigo more than anyone else." Someone said as she appeared in the room. She appears to be virtually identical to Orihime, except inverted in color. She is average height. Her skin and hair are white. Her hair long, waist-length and her bangs naturally frame her face and also hang over her ears. Her eyes have black pupils, white irises, and black sclera. She has black nails. (1)
"If I do love this man more than anyone else, why am I not doing anything? Won't I hurt him with these false feelings of mine?" Orihime thought.
"Why does it matter? He's only here as a stepping stool for me to be beside Ichigo." 'White' Orihime replied.
"That's horrible... Uryū is someone dear to me, but not just that, Ichigo also sees him as a dear friend and companion." Orihime thought
"Why does that matter anymore? Our heart does not want Uryū. I desire Ichigo. I want him all to myself. I don't want anyone else to have him." 'White' Orihime replied.
"Inoue?"
"Huh? Yes? Yes, what is it?" in shock by the sudden voice Orihime jolts up in her sitting position. Lost in such deep thoughts she forgot all about her phone conversation with Uryū.
"Are you okay? I've been calling out for you for about a minute or two."
"Y-yes… I'm fine, sorry about that." Feeling dejected from her train of thought she slumps back down and stares at her small shrine once again. "Uryū?" She said.
"Yes?" Uryū replied.
"In the morning, can you come over to my house?" Orihime asked.
"Sure." Uryū said. "I'm sorry for calling you so late in the night. You must be very tired. You can go to sleep now, I'll hang up." Uryū said.
"Thank you Uryū. Have a good night." Orihime said.
"Good night…." Uryū said and hung up. Orihime sets her phone down next to the briefcase and continues to stare at it. Gloomily, she then looks out beyond her bedroom window and proceeds to stare at the crescent moon floating in the sky. As the night goes by, the more wind blows by. Finally closing her eyes for a few seconds, she opens her mouth and mutters something that became unable to reach the ears of no one as the wind blew viciously against the window.
Scene Change: Morning
Orihime woke up. She made herself some breakfast. As she was eating, she heard knock on her door. Orihime was surprised. She didn't expect Uryū to arrive this early in the morning. She went to the door and opened it and sees Tatsuki standing outside.
"Hello Tatsuki." Orihime said.
"Hey Orihime." Tatsuki replied.
"Come in." Orihime said. Tatsuki entered Orihime's apartment and sat down on the couch.
"I need to ask you something." Tatsuki said.
"Ask away." Orihime replied.
"What did you do?" Tatsuki said.
"What?" Orihime said in surprise. "What do you mean Tatsuki?" Orihime questioned.
"This morning, Ichigo didn't show up to our daily run today. Yuzu and Karin showed up but I saw the signs of sleep deprivation, their eyes were red and puffy. When I asked them about Ichigo, they both refused to say anything. I later call Sado and Uryū and they both gave me little to know information, now then. What. Did. You. Do?" Tatsuki asked. Orihime didn't reply. "Orihime!" Tatsuki yelled and grabbed Orihime's shoulders.
"I if try to lie to her. She'll likely notice." Orihime thought. "Well… Ichigo left town." Orihime began.
"WHAT!" Tatsuki yelled and stood up.
"Tatsuki-chan please, sit down." Orihime said. Tatsuki complied and sat back down. "According to a letter that Ichigo wrote, he said that he is leaving town to forget his old life because of all the negativity we brought to him." Orihime said.
"We?" Tatsuki questioned.
"Yes. We." Orihime said.
"It's not 'we'. It was you, Chad and Uryū who pushed Ichigo out." Tatsuki yelled. "You three decided to pushed Ichigo out. However, his remaining friends who didn't have any powers and knew about the secret didn't push him away. In fact, we tried to pull him back in. Anyways, are you going to do anything about to fix this?" Tatsuki asked.
"What do you mean?" Orihime questioned.
"Are you going to do anything to get Ichigo back?" Tatsuki asked.
"… No." Orihime answered.
"Why?" Tatsuki asked.
"Because Ichigo wanted us to leave him alone and we will. It probably for the best." Orihime said. Tatsuki stood up. "Hope this satisfied her." Orihime thought. Suddenly a hand flew by and smacked Orihime in the face. Orihime looked back to see Tatsuki hand still up. Orihime touch her face to feel her face to feel the spot where Tatsuki just slapped her.
"Tatsuki?" Orihime questioned. "Why the fuck did she slap me!?"
"You're fucking stupid!" Tatsuki yelled and left. Orihime slowly stood up and walked to her door and locked it.
"Don't worry my Ichigo. I'll find you. Then we'll be together forever." Orihime thought.
Scene Change
After reading that letter, Sado left Urahara Shōten. Sado was very angry. Ever since Sado made that promise to his grandfather, Sado never let his anger affect him. However, with the guilt and anger of Sado's actions towards Ichigo broke him. Sado didn't want to be here right now. With that, Sado ran and ran. Eventually Sado ran into a secluded part of the forest near Karakura Town; there Sado began to let his emotions out by pounding the various trees. Meanwhile an older man was walking around near that area. As he older man was walking around, he heard sound of punching and uncontrolled breathing. The older man slowly walked towards the area he's hearing this sound. The older man walked to see Sado punching the tree one more time and the tree fell.
"Impressive." The older man said. Sado looked and noticed a man standing near other trees. The man appears to be barely 6 feet, 182.88 cm. He has black, shaggy hair, and his body is tanned and extremely muscular.
"Thank you." Sado said.
"Hey kid. Why are you here?" The older man said.
"I… was angry and needed some place to let out some steam." Sado said.
"I see…" The man said. As he looked at Sado, he noticed on Sado's knuckles are bleeding. "Kid. Your knuckles are bleeding." The man said. Sado looked at his knuckles to see that they are bleeding. "Kid, follow me. I'll get that cleaned up." The older man said. Sado decided to follow the older man. Following the older man's path, they got out of the forest. A few minutes later, Sado noticed the older man was guiding Sado to a gym. Sado entered the gym. Sado could see the older man bring out a first aid kit and pointed at a chair. Sado sat down and allowed the old man to bandage Sado's knuckles. While this Sado's knuckles were being wrapped, he noticed someone practicing his punches on a punching bag. Sado was lost in thought seeing these techniques. The older man noticed Sado wasn't paying any attention to him anymore. The older man looked and saw what is distracting Sado right now. The older man smiled. The man continued to perform other punches and then stopped. He went to a chair that has a towel on hit. He wiped his face with it. "You interested?" The older man asked.
"I… am." Sado replied.
"Have you done any fighting before?" The man asked.
"I have done a little self-defense street fighting." Sado answered.
"Due to racial bastards?" The man guessed.
"Correct." Sado replied.
"Sure. I'll teach you." The man raised his hand towards Sado. "The names Makunouchi Ippo (2)." Ippo said.
"My name is Yasutora Sado." Sado replied and accepted Makunouchi Ippo's hand. With that Sado found his stress reliever.
Scene Change: Silbern
In an ice constructed medium-sized throne room, we see an elderly man sitting on the ice carved throne. The tall man has a long face, broad chin, and pronounced cheekbones. He also has long black hair, which reaches to his lower back, and reddish-brown eyes with thin eyebrows. He has well-kept muttonchops and a connected mustache but is otherwise clean-shaven. He is wearing a white, double-breasted trench coat, which has the Quincy Zeichen on the middle, with large buttoned cuffs and lapels, white trousers, and trench boots. Over this, he wears a tattered, ankle-length black cloak, which has a red ribbon near the neck and is fastened to the left with a single large button.
"Your Majesty, we have a message of our spies in Karakura Town." Someone said as that person entered the throne room. On a closer look the person appears to be male. He is a tall young man with a thin build and long blonde hair, which descends past his shoulders. He is wearing a white uniform, consisting of the order's signature hooded-cloak, a calf-length trench coat commensurate of his rank with dark green fur running down from his left collar to the front of the coat, a green belt with a golden belt buckle, along with white trousers and shoes.
"Read it Haschwalth." The person on the throne ordered.
"Yes my lord." Haschwalth said. "According to the spy, Kurosaki Ichigo has left Karakura Town." Haschwalth read.
"I see… Anything else?" The person sitting on the throne asked.
"Yes. At some time, former Echt Quincy Masaki Kurosaki and Gemischt Quincy Ishida Uryū will be entering the Dangai." Haschwalth said.
"I see… excellent." The person sitting on the throne said.
"What do you wish to be done your Highness?" Haschwalth asked.
"We will have our spy continue to monitor the situation. I want Quilge Opie to be brought to me." The person on the throne ordered.
"Right away your Highness." Haschwalth said as he stood up and left.
"Soon all of my children shall return to me." The man sitting on the throne said. A few minutes later Haschwalth returned with another person. The person's head is largely shaved, with a crop of black hair on top. He wears a variant of the typical Wandenreich uniform with white trousers, black boots and a white top fastened by a black belt with decorative buckle. He also wears a short white cape and a white hat with a black peak and gold trimming.
"My lord." The two said as they bowed in respect.
"Raise my faithful children." The man sitting on the throne ordered.
"What are your orders your Highness?" The new man asked.
"Quilge Opie, I want you to lead a small group of your army in the Dangai. Your mission is to capture former Echt Quincy Masaki Kurosaki and Gemischt Quincy Ishida Uryū." The man sitting on the throne said.
"How much time do I have to get ready your Highness?" Opie asked.
"As of this moment, it is unclear. However, have your chosen ready when Haschwalth tells you otherwise." The man sitting on the throne said.
"Yes my lord. Am I allowed to leave to get my men ready?" Opie asked.
"Go my Hunting Captain." The man sitting on the throne said. Opie bowed to the man again and left the throne room.
"Anything else your Highness?" Haschwalth asked.
"No." The man sitting on the throne said. Haschwalth bowed and walk out of the throne room.
"With these two on my side, my fallen child will return to me." The man sitting on the throne said before he closed his eyes again.
Scene Change: Orihime's house
A few hours after Tatsuki left, Orihime heard her doorbell right. Orihime walked over to see Uryū standing outside.
"Hello Uryū." Orihime said.
"Inoue… can we sit down and talk." Uryū asked nervously.
"Ok." Orihime said. Uryū sat on the couch as Orihime brought out two classes of cold tea.
"What do you want to talk about?" Uryū asked.
"Uryū you are an amazing boyfriend for these past months… But, I think we need to b-"Orihime started to say.
"Break up?" Uryū finished.
"Um… yes I think with everything going on, I think we all need some time by our self to… reflect on what has happened." Orihime explained.
"… AKA you want to stop your attempt to make Ichigo jealous of us in a relationship." Uryū said as he adjusted his glasses.
"What!?" Orihime said in shock.
"Why are you surprised? I know from the start that you want Ichigo. I have seen you giving subtle looks at Ichigo when he isn't looking. Or those times where you would touch Ichigo when you are 'healing' him." Uryū said.
"Then why did you go along with it?" Orihime asked.
Uryū let out a long sigh. "I went with it because… I thought that by dating you, I might be able to learn how to express my emotions." Uryū said.
"Explain…" Orihime asked.
"I… never learned how to properly express my emotions. After my mother died, Ryūken never showed emotions. I would actually receive lectures from Ryūken for showing emotions." Uryū said. He paused to drink some water. "As time passed… I actually forgot how to even express them. Then you asked me out on our first date. As these dates went on, I started to realized that these dates and our relationship could help me to slowly learn how to express emotions." Uryū explained.
"I see… So… friends still." Orihime asked.
"Sure. Friends." Uryū said.
Scene Change
Uryū was reading a book in his bedroom. It has been a few hours since his break up with Orihime. Even thought Uryū expected this to happen, he felt hurt. Uryū decided to try and study for his upcoming exams. As he read his book he heard a knock on the door.
"Come in." Uryū said as he place his bookmarker in his book and place it on the bed. The door opened and Uryū's jaws dropped. He sees an elderly man has gray hair, a gray mustache and glasses. His eyes were deep gray and he had a bit of a beard of his chin. His skin was wrinkled with age and he had pronounced cheekbones. He wears a brown tunic covering what appears to be a white Quincy outfit. Next to this old man is a women has black-haired woman with a blue eyes and her large hair is kept in a bun. She wears a white shirt and black long skirt. They both have soul chains sticking out of their chest.
"Ojīsan… Okasan…How?" Uryū asked.
"It was due to Ichigo's help." Kanae said.
"How?" Uryū asked.
"Well… we were in Hell with Masaki." Ojīsan started.
"WHAT! WHY?" Uryū yelled.
"It is due to what Quincy do with our powers. Whether it was self-defense or not, our powers destroy souls. In the eyes of Hell, this action will cause someone to go to Hell." Kanae answered.
"Anyways…" Ojīsan said. "Well, during Ichigo's fight with Kokutō, Masaki attempted to stop Ichigo from hollowfying again. With Masaki's help, Ichigo manage to resist hollowfying again. For some reason, the Kushanāda decided to temporarily bestowed Ichigo special powers, which allows him to cut the Chains of Hell and permanently seal away Kokutō. The attack Ichigo used somehow managed to reach all of us and freed us from the chains. When Ichigo was leaving Hell, all three of us used Hirenkyaku to escape out of Hell." Ojīsan said.
"Once again… I am in debt to Ichigo." Uryū sighed. "So why are you here?"
"Well… we saw that you were acting sad. So we wanted to check on you to see how you were." Kanae said.
"I see…" Uryū said. Suddenly someone knocked on the door. "Come in." Uryū said. Yuzu and Karin opened the door to see Uryū and the two ghosts.
"Sorry. Are we interrupting?" Yuzu asked.
"No. Not really." Uryū said.
"Anyways, Urahara called us to tell you that he want you at his shop. He received various orders from Sōtaichō and requested that you show up to hear them." Karin said.
"I see… I'll come." Uryū said.
"Ok. I'll tell him you are coming." Yuzu said as Yuzu walked out and Karin closes the door.
"Anyways Okasan and Ojīsan. Anything else you want to tell me before I go?" Uryū asked.
"Son. I understand what happened in regards to you and Ichigo." Kanae started to say.
"If anything… Blame me." Ojīsan said.
"What?" Kanae and Uryū said.
"I raised Ryūken to become the emotionless man he is now. Kanae. Once Masaki was no longer considered 'pure' by your mother's standards, you were there to help begin to thaw out Ryūken's frozen heart. However, once you died, that fear of pain forced him to refreeze his heart. When it was time for Ryūken to take care your Uryū, he just couldn't. He didn't know how to." Ojīsan said.
"I see… Thank you for coming here to talk to me." Uryū said.
"No problem my son. If you need to talk to me, come and find me." Kanae said. Uryū stood up and left the room, leaving the two ghosts alone.
"Do you think Uryū will be find Otōsan?" Kanae asked.
"… I don't know. Uryū's fate is something we can't tell." Ojīsan said as he looked out the window.
Scene Change: Urahara Shōten
Uryū used Hirenkyaku to quickly get to Urahara Shōten. He arrived at the Urahara Shōten to see the doors closed. Uryū knocked on the door. The opened and Tessai popped his head out.
"Sorry we are- Oh Ishida-kun." Tessai said.
"Hello Tessai. Yuzu said that Urahara wanted to see me?" Uryū asked.
"He did. Come in." Tessai said as he opened the doors for Uryū to walk in. Tessai guided Uryū to a sitting room. Uryū can see Sado and Orihime were already there.
"So what have you called us here for Urahara-san?" Orihime asked.
"Well… the Sōtaichō recently contacted me in regards to possible Quincy attacks-". Urahara managed to say before being interrupted.
"What! Uryū would never attack anyone!" Orihime yelled.
"What I was about say before being interrupted." Urahara started to say.
"Sorry." Orihime quietly said.
"12th Division reported that there were rumors of Quincy citing in Hueco Mundo. Sōtaichō asked me if Ishida-kun or Ishida-san know anything about this." Urahara asked.
"I don't know anything that is going on right now." Uryū answered.
"I see. I'll let Sōtaichō know about this." Urahara said as he pulled out a notebook and wrote something down. "Another thing that the Sōtaichō asked me for is… what are you three planning for the future right now." Urahara said.
"Why?" Uryū asked.
"Ichigo's letter warned of a possible war to start soon. Sōtaichō believed Ichigo's warning and told all Shinigami to train. Sōtaichō is aware that you three may wish to get involved with this war. So, he talked me into seeing what you three were planning to do. He is giving you three two options. You can continue to live your life away from Karakura Town or join Soul Society." Urahara said.
"WHAT!" The three yelled in shock.
"Sado-kun… what are you planning to do?" Urahara asked, ignoring the three young adults' big reaction.
"I… currently decided to join a dojo to learn boxing." Sado said.
"Really?" Orihime and Uryū said in surprise.
"Ya… I saw a guy practicing and I found that I surprisingly enjoy it." Sado admitted.
"What about you Orihime?" Urahara asked.
"I got accepted to a private culinary school in Naruki City." Orihime said.
"I feel sorry for the chefs." Sado and Uryū thought.
"Ok… What about you Ishida-kun?" Urahara asked.
"… I'm not sure. I received a letter to join Revocs Corporation Internship program (3)." Uryū said. "I also received a scholarship to University of Washington in the States with internships at Grey-Sloan Memorial Hospital (4)." Uryū said.
"Wow…" Orihime said. She heard of Revocs Corporation. They are one of the biggest clothing producing companies in all of Asia.
"Well… Ishida-kun… I would recommend the States since that would get you farther away from Karakura Town." Urahara said.
"Ok… I'll still have time to decide." Uryū said.
"Anything else Urahara-san?" Orihime asked.
"Not at this moment." Urahara said. With that Sado and Orihime stood up and left.
"Um… Urahara." Uryū said.
"Yes Ishida?" Urahara replied.
"When is the plan for Masaki-obasan going to start?" Uryū asked.
"Well… I managed to get a message to Kuchiki-san and Ukitake-taichō. They told me that in about two weeks Kuchiki-san would be able to come here for Masaki." Urahara said.
"I see… thanks." Uryū said and left.
Scene Change: Urahara Shōten: Two Weeks Later
It has been two weeks since the discussion in regard to our future. Every day, Sado would head to that gym to train under Ippo-sensei. At some point, Ippo-sensei was impressed with the possibilities of his student. He pulled Sado to the side and talked with him.
"Sado. From what I saw these past days, I can see that your fighting style is a mix between a slugger and a swarmer.
"Ippo-sensei, what are swarmer's and a sluggers?" Sado asked.
"A swarmer is a type of boxer who attempts to overwhelm his opponent by applying constant pressure, which taking away an opponent's spacing and timing. I am an example of this type of boxer. "Ippo-sensei said.
"What about a slugger?" Sado asked.
" A slugger is type of boxer that has not much finesse in the ring, but make up for it in raw power, often able to knock almost any opponent out with a single punch. I do know a little about this fighting style." Ippo-senpai began to say. "However, I know a friend who is well into this style of boxing. I'll go talk to him to see if he is willing to teach you." Ippo-senpai said.
"Thank you." Sado said. Takamura Mamoru (5) is Makunouchi Ippo's old friend when their glory days. At first glance, Mamoru looked like a big buff man. Mamoru capitalized this by working as an intimidation bouncer at some nightclubs. In reality, he is a relaxed and fun person to hang out with. Ippo called Mamoru and asked if he wanted to help train Sado. Mamoru decided to join his old best friend to help Sado with his training. During the training, both Mamoru and Ippo both were amazed at fast Sado can handle the training regimen. With the rate that Sado is going at, he might be able to start entering tournament.
"Sado." Ippo said to get Sado's attention.
"Yes?" He asked.
"Well…myself and Ippo both believe if you train a little more, you can start participating in various boxing tournament." Mamoru-sensei said.
"What!" Sado yelled in shock.
"Yes. We believe that you are capable of entering and even winning these tournament." Ippo-sensei said.
"Um… I not sure." Sado started to say.
"You'll be fine." Mamoru-senpai said.
"Ok…" Sado said and resume his training. After Sado's training, he took a shower and went back to his apartment. He entered his apartment and went to his fridge to get a sports drink. As he sat down on his couch and drank his sports drink, he reflected on what happened since he started training. Orihime went to her culinary school a few days after Urahara's questioning. As for Uryū, he is decided to go accept the scholarship to the University of Washington in the States. However, due to the school being in the States, Uryū needed to review all his English in order to take the various placement test needed. While Sado was lost in thoughts, his phone went off. Sado took it out and answered.
"Hello?" Sado said.
"Sado-kun?"Urahara said.
"Urahara-san this is Sado." Sado said.
"I need you to come to my shop right now." Urahara said.
"Ok." Sado said hung up. He put his phone away, put his shoes on and ran out of his apartment. A few minutes later Sado arrived at Urahara Shōten. Tessai opened the door and allowed Sado to enter.
"Ah… Sado-san, join us." Urahara said from the table. Sitting at the table with Urahara was Uryū and Isshin.
"What's going on?" Sado asked.
"Yes. What is going on Kisuke." Isshin asked.
"Well… someone kidnapped Yuzu and Karin." Urahara said.
"WHAT!" Isshin yelled out.
"According to my sensors, something kidnapped Yuzu and Karin. " Urahara said.
"Any clues to find them?" Uryū asked.
"Not at this moment." Urahara said.
"I see… Then why did you tell us this?" Uryū asked.
"Glad you asked Ishida-kun." Urahara started to say. "I want you and Sado-kun to patrol Karakura High School to see if there is any evidence at the High School." Urahara said.
"Ok." Sado said. While Uryū nodded in understanding.
"What about me Kisuke?" Isshin asked.
"I want you to see if Mayuri's sensors detected anything." Urahara said.
"You know that I hate going to that bastard. Can't you go ask him?" Isshin questioned.
"Well I could… However, likely Mayuri would likely try to attack me or try to prevent me from entering the Shinigami Research and Development Institute." Urahara said.
"Fine." Isshin said as he open a Senkaimon and entered it. Uryū and Sado stood up and left. Once those three lefts, Urahara pulled out a piece of paper. The piece of paper was empty except of a red seal of some sort on it.
"Time to say hi to my old friend." Urahara said as he sends a small amount of reiatsu to the seal. The seal glowed red. Suddenly a red seal underneath Urahara appeared and glowed red. Soon the red seal flashed. Once the flash died down Urahara was gone.
Scene Change: Sirzechs Office
Sirzechs was sitting down and doing some paperwork in his office.
"Why is there so much paperwork!" Sirzechs thought. "Maybe I should hire some lower minions to take care of this." Sirzechs thought as he fills out more paperwork. "Likely Grayfia will confiscate them and rule them like all the other maids and butlers." Sirzechs thought as he placed a completed sheet on top of a large tower of paperwork. "Man I'm so bored. I hope something exciting comes." Sirzechs , a teleportation seal appeared and glowed in front of Sirzechs's desk. "Oh? Someone using my Maou seal to my office? I wonder who it could be." Sirzechs thought. He gave his seal to a few people so the list isn't that long. The seal faded and Sirzechs could see a man standing there. He appears tall, lean-built man with light skin and gray eyes. His hair is messy and very light blond, with strands framing the sides of the face and hanging between his eyes, and he has chin stubble. He is wearing a dark coat, which sports a white diamond pattern along its bottom half, with a dark green shirt and pants underneath. He is wears traditional Japanese wooden sandals (geta) and a striped dark green and white bucket hat (bōshi).
"It has been a while hasn't it Urahara." Sirzechs said as he looked at Urahara from his office chair.
"It has been a while Sirzechs." Urahara replied.
"So… what is the occasion?" Sirzechs asked.
"We detected 'unknown' reiatsu in Karakura Town." Urahara said.
"I see… You likely came to see me because I am 'allowed' to know more of the supernatural side compared to you." Sirzechs hypothesized.
"Yep." Urahara replied.
"Do you have a sample of this 'unknown' reiatsu?" Sirzechs asked.
"Here." Urahara said and gave a test tube with grey colored reiatsu. Sirzechs took it and poured it in his hands, to allow him to sense what this 'unknown' reiatsu is.
"Sorry Urahara. Not even I can tell you what this is. Ether the sample contain not enough of the 'unknown' reiatsu or the owner of this 'unknown' reiatsu diluted their reiatsu with other things to make it difficult to distinguish." Sirzechs asked.
"I see…" Urahara said.
"So… why are you making this a very big deal?" Sirzechs asked.
"The reason why is that the owner of this 'unknown' reiatsu kidnapped two people." Urahara said.
"Who?" Sirzechs asked.
"Kurosaki Yuzu and Kurosaki Karin." Urahara answered.
"Kurosaki Yuzu and Kurosaki Karin. Those are their names right?" Sirzechs asked. "OH SHIT! Got to tell Ichigo!" Sirzechs thought.
"Correct." Urahara said.
"I see… Urahara, please step out for a second for me to make a few calls." Sirzechs said.
"Ok." Urahara said and stepped out. Sirzechs pulled out his phone and called Ichigo.
"Hello Sirzechs." Ichigo said.
"Hello Ichigo. I need you to come to my office immediately." Sirzechs said urgently.
"Ok. Sirzechs." Ichigo said and hung up the phone after a few seconds a red garganta opened up with Ichigo and Eu jumping out of it. "Sirzechs what's the issue?" Ichigo asked.
"Ichigo, I think you need to sit down for this." Sirzechs said.
"Why?" Ichigo asked.
"I think it is because I am here." Said a voice. Sirzechs could see how Ichigo reacted to seeing Urahara.
"Geta-Bōshi how did you find me." Ichigo said.
"Well… I didn't know you were here." Kisuke said. "How are you here?" Urahara thought. "As of a few hours ago, your sisters Yuzu and Karin were kidnapped."
"WHAT!" Ichigo yelled. "Geta-Bōshi I want answers now."
"Well… Ichigo-kun…" Urahara started before he opened his fan. Immediately Ichigo was in front of him and single arm choke Urahara.
"Not now. No games Geta-Bōshi." Ichigo said.
"I didn't see Ichigo move. How is he this strong when he doesn't have any reiatsu left?" Urahara thought. "Where was the old Ichigo." Urahara joked. "The one who I could pick on."
"Geta-Bōshi." Ichigo growled as he tightened his grip on Kisuke's throat.
"It's starting to get hard to breath here!" Kisuke mentally commented "Fine." Kisuke said. Ichigo loosen the grip on Kisuke's throat. "My computers detected an 'unknown' power signature. The programs I have on my computer don't have Angel, Fallen Angel or Devil reiatsu in it for safety reasons. So I took that sample and brought it over to Sirzechs to determine if he could tell me who/what took them." Urahara began to explain. But Sirzechs interrupted him.
"I took a look at the sample Urahara has. Unfortunately, the sample was too weak for me to determine who/what took them." Sirzechs added.
"During Sirzechs' analysis process, I told him what happened." Urahara said.
"So I decided to call you to tell you what has happened." Sirzechs said.
"I do not know who would kidnap them." Urahara admitted.
"Well… I can name probable five groups." Ichigo said. "Shinigami for one. They want to lure me back to Karakura Town so they could watch me. Hollow is another because they want revenge for killing Aizen. Quincy is the third to train Yuzu and Karin in their Quincy heritage and/or use them to recruit me in their army. Fourth is the Old Satan Faction due to my title. The last group is the Fallen Angels since, they know that I am a threat for whatever they are planning." Ichigo answered. Both Urahara and Sirzechs gave him a confused and surprised look. "Did I get any hits?" Ichigo asked.
"Well. Those are all valid possibilities and reasons." Kisuke said. "When did Ichigo get this observant? How does he know all about them if he doesn't have reiatsu? Unless he does have reiatsu." Kisuke thought.
"Are there any other reasons why you are still here?" Ichigo asked.
"Ichigo everyone miss-." Kisuke started to say. Ichigo immediately got up and began to walk away. "Ichigo!" Urahara said, trying to get Ichigo to listen to him. "Looks like I have no other choice." Kisuke thought. "Do you want me to tell them you are here." Urahara threatened.
"Kisuke you idiot!" Sirzechs thought. Ichigo sighed and snapped his fingers. Little red ripples circles opened up and fired Hell's chains at Urahara and pierce his hands.
" Geta-Bōshi … I know you did not just threaten me." Ichigo said. Kisuke tried to break free from the chains, but the chains didn't budge. " Geta-Bōshi you must have recognized these chains by now." Ichigo said.
"No… These chains… It can't be…" Urahara said realizing what they were.
"But they are. These are the legendary Chains of Hell and I control them. Now then you have two options. I can throw you into the bottom level of Hell and let you suffer there for a while or you swear to never reveal to anyone this information." Ichigo said. "Which one do you choose?" Kisuke stayed silence for a moment. Thinking what he could do. Urahara sighed and looked at Ichigo.
"Ichigo you sure have changed these past weeks." Kisuke said. Ichigo didn't respond to Kisuke's tease. The more chains started to wrap around Urahara. "FINE! I choose the second option." Urahara yelled.
"Eu, can you make or create a contract with no loopholes and a major penalty if he breaks it. As well as a failsafe in case I need him to do it." Ichigo asked.
"Ok." she said and closed her eyes. A few seconds later, a contract was in her hands. She handed the contract to Ichigo. Ichigo read it over and signs the bottom. He then turned the contract around so that Urahara can read it. A few seconds later, Urahara signed the contract. Ichigo then handed to Sirzechs to read.
This is an agreement between Kurosaki Ichigo and Urahara Kisuke. Urahara Kisuke agrees to never reveal any information Urahara learned about Kurosaki Ichigo without his written and physical permission. Kurosaki Ichigo must willingly give permission. He cannot be drugged or drunk or forced to give permission. If Urahara Kisuke breaks this agreement, this soul is to be bounded to Hell and will sufferer for eternity until the Kurosaki Ichigo says otherwise.
Sirzechs signed this contract in blood below Urahara's name and gave it to Eu-sama. Who immediately signed the contract. Ichigo snapped his fingers and recalled all the chains on Urahara. Ichigo opened a red garganta. Ichigo and Eu entered the red garganta.
"Sirzechs, can you offer me any information about Ichigo right now?" Kisuke asked.
"Sorry my friend. This is something not even I can help you with." Sirzechs said. "He is already helped my little sister as well as help bring peace between the three fractions. He also has her as his ally." Sirzechs said.
"You mean the girl he calls Eu?" Kisuke asked.
"Yes her real name is E-" Sirzechs stopped midway. Suddenly a piece of paper appeared randomly and flowed down. On the paper it wrote,
"It is considered rude to talk about people behind the back." Soon the paper ignited itself.
"We'll see ya later my friend." Kisuke said and left. Sirzechs sighed and sat back down on his deck. Sirzechs looked at his desk to notice that the sheet Sirzechs currently filling out is empty. Sirzechs started to look through his tower of finished paperwork to discover all the portion that needed Sirzech's signature and initial are now empty.
"NOOOOOO!" Sirzechs cried as he fell on his knees. A piece of paper floated down and slid to Sirzechs. Sirzechs looks at the note and yelled in fear.
" Punishment time!" Was what was written in Sirzechs's note before igniting itself and burning away.
Scene Change: Urahara Shōten
Urahara returned to his sitting room. Urahara went to find Tessai to see if he has anything to report. "Hello Tessai." Urahara said.
"Hello Boss." Tessai said.
"Did anyone come back looking for me?" Urahara asked.
"Boss… you were gone?" Tessai asked.
"No… I locked myself in my lab to see if my computers could identify what that 'unknown' reiatsu was." Urahara lied. He forgot that he had a device to duplicate his reiatsu so no one would find out he left.
"Ok. Well…no one came here looking for you; boss." Tessai answered.
"I see… continue what you were doing Tessai." Urahara said and went back to the back. Urahara called Uryū and Sado, to pretend that Urahara was still trying to find the source of the 'unknown' reiatsu.
"Hello?" Uryū said.
"Hello Ishida-kun. Find anything?" Urahara asked.
"Nothing." Uryū said.
"I see… come back to the Shōten." Urahara said.
"Ok." Uryū said and hung up. Urahara called Isshin to see if he got anything from Mayuri.
"Hello Kisuke." Isshin said.
"Hello Isshin. Did Mayuri have anything on his sensors?" Urahara asked.
"Nope." Isshin said.
"Ok. Come back over here." Urahara said.
"Ok." Isshin said and hung up.
Scene Change: Urahara Shōten: Thirty Minutes Later
In Urahara's sitting room, Urahara, Isshin, Uryū and Sado are sitting down.
"So Urahara, did you find anything?"I sshin asked.
"I… did." Urahara said.
"What did you find?" Uryū asked.
"I… can't tell you." Urahara said.
"WHAT! WHY!" Isshin yelled. "WHAT ARE YOU HIDING!"
"Isshin calm down." Sado said as he stood up and help Isshin calm down.
"Isshin. I can't tell you because of a few reasons. There are more things other than Shinigami, Hollows and Quincies in our world. However, by the Soul King's personal decree, we are not allowed to know… to know beyond those three. However, I did dare to find them. So I did. However, I am locked in a contract and unable to tell you three anything." Urahara explained. Isshin looked like he was about to speak but Urahara continued. "However, my associate, who isn't restricted like me, is aware of the situation and on the lookout for them." Urahara said.
"So Kisuke. Just to get this straight. You want us three to leave this alone and allow your 'associate', who I don't know, to look for my daughters." Isshin said.
"That is correct." Urahara said.
Isshin sighed in defeated and said. "Ok." Suddenly Isshin lunged forward and grabbed the collars of Kisuke's robes and lifted him up. "But! If any harm comes to Yuzu or Karin, I will come and hunt you down." Isshin yelled in Urahara's face.
"Ok." Urahara said. Isshin dropped Urahara down and began to walk to the door. "At least now you are pretending to act like a real father." Urahara commented on. Isshin slammed the doors closed in anger.
"Was that needed Urahara?" Uryū asked.
"Yes it was Ishida-san." Urahara said. "Ever since I helped those two when they first met, I kept a close eye on them. At a young age, Ichigo was a momma's boy. In contracts, Isshin tried make Yuzu and Karin his girls. That kind of tore the family a little. When Masaki died, Isshin blamed Ichigo for it and indirectly avoided his son. In his action to avoid his son, he accidently avoided his daughters and his responsibilities as a father. The nine-year-old Ichigo, who is technically suffering from PTSD from his mother's death, took that responsibility Isshin accidently abandoned and cared for his sisters, who are four or five at this time. As his sisters grew older, Ichigo allowed his sisters to share some of the burden Isshin was supposed to carry." Urahara explained.
"I see… anyways Urahara we need to go…" Uryū said.
"Be safe. We don't want you two to get lost." Urahara said. The two young adults stood up and left the Shōten.
Scene Change: Kurosaki House/Clinic: Next Morning
Isshin woke up the next day with a hangover. After coming home from Urahara's, Isshin immediately brought out his secret stash of alcohol and began drinking it and reflected on everything that happened in the past month.
Ever since Ichigo leaving Karakura Town, it has been very rough for the Kurosaki family. Yuzu and Karin would only enter their home to eat, shower or sleep. Any other time, they would be at school, at Urahara Shōten or at Ryūken's house. This slowly tore Isshin apart. What was worse was that the love of his life, returned to soul form and despised Isshin for what he did to Ichigo. He went to the refrigerator to get a can of beer to drink. However, the refrigerator had an empty case of beer and some water bottles. Isshin grabbed a water bottle and drank some water. He then walked over to the couch and sat down. He stared at his hands and thought of what happen all these years.
When Ichigo was born. Isshin was nervous. When Isshin became a Shinigami, he never returned to the Shiba Clan. Instead, Isshin dedicated much of his time to be a Shinigami. Because of this, Isshin never learned how to raise a child. Unlike Isshin, Masaki was so excited to see her little boy. During her lifetime living with the Ishida, Masaki would always bother Ryūken and Kanae to play with her. Occasionally, she played with other children her age. As she grew slightly older, she babysits other children. So, she was ready for baby Ichigo. Isshin allowed Masaki to practically raise Ichigo. Then Yuzu and Karin were born. This time, Isshin attempted to imitate what Isshin saw Masaki do with baby Ichigo. For the next few years, this system worked. Masaki would care mostly for Ichigo and occasionally for the girls, while Isshin cared for Yuzu and Karin.
Then Masaki died. Isshin never experienced something like a love one died. Isshin had seen fellow Shinigami died in battle but never felt like this. In Isshin's abrupt action, he began to do what he did when he was a Shinigami again. He avoided his children and dedicated himself to his clinic. Ichigo, the oldest of the children took on the responsibilities he remembered Masaki doing. He began to do the laundry, cleaning the house, and cooking the food. Ichigo even took Isshin's unofficial responsibility; taking care of Yuzu and Karin. He walked the girls to school, helped them with their homework, and was there whenever they needed him. Eventually, Isshin managed to get over with his grief of Masaki's death but it was too late. His children had taken the burdens that Masaki had carried and the burden Isshin supposed to carry. Isshin noticed before his daughters would call him Papa. After Masaki died, those two would call him Otōsan. But how they said it was as if they were forced to call him that. As time progressed, Isshin was forced to accept this change. Then Ichigo began to discover his powers.
Isshin didn't want to get involved for a few reasons. First is that Isshin would likely be discovered and tried for unauthorized absent. Second, Isshin feared Ichigo's reaction to the news. Ichigo's reaction had the possibility to bring old emotions that Isshin buried. Due to a series of unfortunate events, Isshin was forced to reveal his secret and fight as a Shinigami again. Near the end of the Winter War, Ichigo was forced to accept everyone's burden and became everyone's final hope to defeat Aizen. Ichigo managed to kill Aizen. Isshin believed that Ichigo could handle the stress and the trauma. After all, Ichigo is a 'normal' Shinigami. However, Isshin forgot one very important detail in regard to Ichigo. Ichigo isn't a 'normal' Shinigami. Ichigo is a human. Ichigo isn't centuries old. He is only 15-year-old. Any new recruits are at least a hundred years old. When Isshin was a seated officer all the way to captain, no one dared to show any signs of PTSD. The reason is that nothing could be done in regard to PTSD. The Forth Squad only heal physical injuries; not mental ones. There are only two things to attempt to get over PTSD. The first thing is sake. The other thing is the victim's Zanpakutō spirit. If the PTSD doesn't go away, the Captain has to start to isolate potential causes, such as friends and co-workers. This helps the victim to forget the incident. It also allows former friends and co-workers forget the person just in case the victim is unable to fully recover from PTSD and is deemed a potential danger to other Shinigami. Those who are suffering from bad case of PTSD are sent to the Maggots' Nest. They stay there until they recover from PTSD or die there.
After the war, Isshin left Ichigo alone like what he usually did to his own Shinigami when he was a captain. However, Isshin noticed that Ichigo stayed depressed. He thought that Ichigo is probably depressed because he is constantly reminded of what he lost. So Isshin told his friends to avoid Ichigo and tell the others spread those lies. Isshin did this in the hope that Ichigo would move from his PTSD. Isshin believed that Ichigo was starting to overcome his PTSD. However, Isshin feared that if his friends come back, it would cause Ichigo's PTSD to return. So, Isshin told Ichigo's former friends to stay away for Ichigo even thought Ichigo doesn't look like he is suffering from PTSD.
Suddenly the home phone rang and broke Isshin out of his thoughts. Isshin sighed and looked at the caller ID. It read "Unknown Name" and "Unknown Number". Isshin immediately picked up. At that moment many thing were running thought his mind. "Are these the kidnappers? Who are they? What are they? What do they want?" Isshin then heard the connection sound.
"Hello?" Isshin said.
"Goat-chin is that you?" Karin said.
"KARIN! Are you alright? Where are you? How did you get a phone?" Isshin immediately yelled. Karin screamed in pain and dropped the phone. Isshin immediately panicked. Isshin thought that his yelling caused some sort of trouble.
"OH SHIT!" Isshin screamed in his mind as he held his breath.
"Slow down Otōsan." Yuzu said.
"What happened to you sister Yuzu?" Isshin asked as he tried to calm himself down.
"Otōsan, your yelling hurt her ears." Yuzu replied.
"Tell Karin I said sorry." Isshin said.
"WHAT!?" Karin yelled out from the background.
"So… are you two alright?" Isshin asked again.
"Other than Karin's ears, we are alright." Yuzu replied.
"Where are you?" Isshin asked. Isshin could hear Yuzu turning to a direction and then turning back.
"I don't know." Yuzu replied.
"I see…" Isshin said. "Maybe Urahara could help me track this phone number." Isshin thought.
"How did you get a phone?" Isshin asked.
"We got it from Ichi-nii." Yuzu replied.
"YOUR WITH ICHIGO!" Isshin yelled. Yuzu screamed in pain and dropped the phone. Ichigo went and picked up the fallen phone.
"Good job Goat-chin. In less than five minutes, you injured both Yuzu and Karin's ears." Ichigo said.
"Ichigo… good to hear you." Isshin said, trying to start a conversation.
"Yuzu and Karin are safe and sound. They decided to stay with me for right now." Ichigo said.
"WHAT!" Isshin yelled.
"You really love to yell don't you." Ichigo commented.
"Sorry. I'm just worried about them." Isshin said, not realizing what Isshin just said.
"Goat-chin… you are an idiot. Bye." Ichigo said and hung up.
"Ichigo… ICHGIO!" Isshin yelled at the phone. He listened and heard silence. "Damn it!" Isshin yelled and threw the phone on the ground. He then stood up and shunpō'ed to Urahara's.
Scene Change: Urahara Shōten
Isshin arrived in front of Urahara Shōten. He noticed that the doors were closed. Isshin knocked on the door. He waited a few seconds. When he heard no reply he then pounded the door louder.
The opened and Tessai popped his head out with an annoyed look on his face.
"Stop that you ano- Oh it's you." Tessai said.
"Hello Tessai. Is Urahara available? Can I see him?" Isshin asked. Tessai sighed opened the doors for Isshin to walk in. Tessai then locked the door and return to the kitchen to make breakfast for Ururu and Jinta. Isshin walked down till Isshin sees Urahara working on a computer.
"Hello Isshin. What do you need?" Urahara asked as he continues typing on a computer.
"Kisuke. I found a clue where Yuzu and Karin might be at." Isshin said.
"And…" Kisuke said as he continued to type on the computer.
"Kisuke. Yuzu and Karin called me a few minutes ago. I want you to track their location so I can rescue them and bring them back home." Isshin said.
"Isshin. You are really stupid." Kisuke said.
"WHAT! Why?" Isshin asked.
"Because, Yuzu and Karin don't need you to 'rescue' them." Kisuke said.
"How do you know?" Isshin questioned.
"Because before they called you, Ichigo called me." Kisuke said.
"Shouldn't you track their location then?" Isshin questioned.
"I could. But, Ichigo asked me for something else." Kisuke said.
"What?" Isshin asked.
"I just finished the necessary paperwork to transfer Yuzu and Karin out of Karakura High School." Kisuke said casually.
"WHAT!" Isshin yelled and slammed his hand on the table. "You don't have the rights to do that! I am their father not you or Ichigo."
"… Do you think I care that legally you are the father?" Kisuke asked. Before Isshin could respond, Kisuke continued. "I obviously don't. Neither do your own children care that you are there legal father. To them, that is Ichigo; not you." Kisuke said.
"But…" Isshin said.
"Remember after Masaki died and you disconnected from your own family, Ichigo took over the position of mother and father in the Kurosaki Household for Yuzu's and Karin's own sake." Kisuke said.
"Don't you need to report to the Sōtaichō that you found the location of Ichigo?" Isshin countered.
"If this happened last week… likely. However, the Sōtaichō recalled all the Onmitsukidō he sent out and put finding Ichigo a lower priority." Kisuke explained.
"What happened?" Isshin asked.
"Well… a large amount of Rukongai's residents mysteriously disappeared. The Sōtaichō tasked the Onmitsukidō to find the source of the problem." Kisuke said.
"I see… So you are not going to do anything in regards to my children." Isshin said.
"Nope. I don't see any purpose of helping you." Kisuke said.
"I guess I need to try and find them." Isshin said and left the shop. Kisuke sighed and resume tying on his computer. "I hope Sirzechs passes this message to Ichigo." Kisuke thought as he typed a message to Ichigo and forward it to Sirzechs. Once that was done, Kisuke continued to type away on his computer. A few minutes later, Masaki floated through the doors to Urahara's 'office'.
"Hello Masaki-san. What can I do for you?" Kisuke said.
"Hello Kisuke. I was wondering when I can go to Soul Society?" Masaki asked as she pointed at her chain. Kisuke noticed that it is slightly shorter since the last time he saw her.
"I am sorry to tell you this but, due to all the strange things going on in Soul Society right now, Kuchiki-san will not be able to come for another two weeks." Kisuke said.
"I see…" Masaki replied as another chain link fell off Masaki's chain.
"Worry not!" Kisuke yelled in his humorous way. "I created a device that might be able to delay your soul chain's deterioration." Kisuke said and pressed a button. Behind Urahara revealed some sort of capsule. "Although I haven't named it, this device will freeze your entire spiritual body. Theoretically, this will slow down your soul chain's deterioration." Kisuke said.
"Ok." Masaki said as she walked to the machine. Kisuke helped Masaki enter the machine and attached all the various equipment in the chamber to her. Kisuke closed the door and secured it. He went back to his terminal and began to warm up the machine. Once Kisuke finished that process he looked at Masaki and pulled out a whiteboard and wrote something.[Are you ready?] Kisuke wrote. Masaki attempted to yell something but Kisuke couldn't hear her. Kisuke quickly erase his earlier message and wrote, [Silent communication]. Masaki then nodded her head as a sign of understanding. Kisuke erase his whiteboard and rewrote [Are you ready?] to make sure that Masaki is ready. Masaki nodded in reply. With that Kisuke typed the final keys to start up the machine. From the chamber, a dull white light shined from the built-in window. Kisuke walked over to see Masaki sleeping inside the chamber. Kisuke decided that his invention was a success and left the room.
Scene Change: Hueco Mundo: Unknown Cave
In a cave, we see two human looking beings sitting in a cave. One of them appears to be female. She has spiked blond hair; the front part of her hair is bright pink, and bright green eyes. She wears a short light pink ragged kimono with a brighter pink, down-turned collar. She wears a yellow cloth around her waist. For some reason she is barefoot while the other figure appears male. He has shoulder-length dark lavender hair. Some of his hair covers his right eye and lavender eyes. He is very lean and pale, and wears a white ragged kimono that exposes part of his chest and a yellow belt around his waist and no footwear. Just like the female, he is also barefooted. These two are looking at some sort of mirror.
"Otōto (6), when do you think we should rescue her?" The female asked.
"Patience Onēsan (7). It is too difficult to attempt something like this right now." The male said.
"Fine." She said as they continue to look at the mirror to see a small black haired girl, in a black kimono working on paperwork.
