Sorry guys, Ive been gone for so long. i lost all my progress along with my internet and hadnt been able to afford it again untill now. so I think I've made you wait long enough so here is the next chapter. and like i have said Bleach doesn' belot belong to me in any way.

Eveyone gathered at Urahara's shop, while once again Yoruichi attended Orihimes condition. Urahara was no where to be found and everyone felt impatient not knowing what was going to happen.

"well I managed to put a block on her spiritual energy" Yoruichi said as she stepped out to join the others.

"so she will be ok?" Ichigo asked steping closer to her

"No, not unless Urahara finds that cure" she replied

"But you just said you put a block on her Spiritual Energy" rukia piped in

"Yes but that only makes her Spiritual Energy flow slower than normal so all I did was buy us a bit more time"

They all felt even more frustrated than before "where the hell is Urahara? He's the one that made the poison so he should know how to stop it!" renji exclaimed.

"Oh? I didn't Know I would be missed so much" Urahara appeared from behind everyone

"Finally you show up! where the hell have you been?" Ichigo walks up toward him

"Well I had some things to do" he smiled mischeiviously

"I'm guessing you came back with the cure to save Orihime?" Rukia asked

"Well not precisley but I am working on it, for the meantime all we can do is wait"

"Wait? for how long? untill her spiritual energy is gone?" Renji was feeling like he was about to snap

"No, if all goes well I should find the cure before that happens" Urahara turned to walk inside but stopped "for now i think all of you should go home and rest" and with that he disappeared inside.

"There's no point in you staying here all night, Orihime is safe for the moment and she has a little spare time. so as Urahara said go rest and we will all meet here in the morning" Yoruichi said to everyone.

"I think Renji should still be in charge of her" Rukia spoke as everyone was getting ready to leave

"Renji? He couldnt stop them from her getting caught in the first place!" Ichigo yelled looking back at him with angry eyes

"No different than when i got here! she was beaten to a pulp with you watching over her!" Renji yelled back placing a hand on his hilt

"ENOUGH!" Everyone turned to Yoruichi "this isn't the time or the place to behave like children, go rest. EVERYONE. I will not repeat myself again"

Everyone just looked at eachother and one by one started leaving, rukia and ichigo headed in the same direction and Yoruichi headed inside just as Urahara was coming out again. "Abarai" he smiled "I'm glad you haven't left" Renji just looked at him without saying a word "follow me and bring Orihime. He looked confused for a moment and then spoke up.

"Is it ok to move her as she is?"

"She's alot stronger than what you think"

"Abarai" Renji turned to a soft, weak voice from the door

"Orihime!" he rushed towards her and tried to help her but she just held her hand out in front of him "I'm fine, just a little weak but I'll be ok" she smiled up at him

"You will regain your strenght soon Orihime, with that syrup you drank, it will slowly disperse the poison and let it seep through your pores, while that is happening you will have to be secluded because you will be in pain and unable to move" Urahara told her in a stern voice

Both her and Renji looked at him

"I'm just kidding" Urahara smiled and laughed but wasn't fast enought to dodge the flower pot thrown at his face.

"Now's not the time for jokes" Yoruichi said while clutching her fists

"Yes, how silly of me" Urahara said painfully whil laying on the ground

ORIHIME

She had to let Renji carry her to wherever Yoruichi was leading them, she couldn't move fast enough and Yoruichi had said it would be dangerous for them to be in the open with her in that condition. she felt nervous at first but slowly started to let her body loose, Renjis arms felt so strong, they made her feel so little in them . she looked up at him and admired his worried expresion, he looked so distraught. his broad shoulders followed and his chest felt so firm she could feel the warmth coming from his body. Snapping out of her thoughts she clutched to his robe closing her eyes, this was all an involuntary and she felt him stop. She looked up to see him staring at her "Is something wrong? Are you in pain? he asked "No, Im fine, really" she assured him. From the distance she heard Yoruichi yell at him to hurry up and pick up the pace.

Her eyelids soon started to feel heavy and as much as she fought it she couldnt keep awake, the smell of renji sorrounded her and the warm breeze of the night was just enough to make her give way to her fatigue. They kept traveling watching the city line grow farther and farther, where the darkness was more than in the city. The stars filled the sky, or at least you could see them better out here and the air was calm and welcoming with the sound of small bugs making you feel like you were in the most secluded place ever. Renji still had no idea where they were going and without warning Yoruichi came to a stop "We're here" she said and looked over to an empty cluster of houses, some flickers of light here and there.

"what are we doing here?" renji asked confuesed

"this will be a safe house for you and Orihime, we need to keep her hidden untill we know why Grimmjow and the others are looking for her."

"But what protection can she have in a small village? even if its far away if she needs to hide there will be no where to go" Renji replied

"if you cant see it then neither will the espada"

Renji was more confuesed than ever. "what are yo..." he couldnt finish his question all of a sudden a little house appeared behind them

"This will be your safe house, its nothing big but has the essentials for you to stay for a while"

They both walked in, there was a little living room that had a couch, coffee table, a small t.v and a large window, followed by the kitchen with just a stove, fridge and sink. Following down a little hallway it led him to a bathroom attached to a small windowless room. Was he supposed to stay here with Orihime?

"Yes, you will. The espada will expect either ichigo, ishida, chad or anyone else to be with Orihime to protect her. You will be the last person they expect" Yoruichi answered his question. He didnt know why but those words kind of hurt a little

"Mmm" Renji nodded

"You should put her to rest" Yoruichi motioned towards the bedroom. That's right, he forgot he was even carrying her. he looked down at her and it seemed like she had been asleep for a while. He walked slowly towards the bedroom and gently laid her on the bed. She moved around abit and seemed to finally be comfortable "Kurosaki-kun" she whispered softly. he frowned a little, she always said this yet why was it bothering him today? not wanting to wake her up he slowly started to walk out "Please don't leave me alone Abarai-Kun" she whispered slowly. He turned around quickly to see she had sitten up even though she wasnt completly awake but half dazzed. "Don't worry i won't" he patted her head and helped her lay down again. He walked out to living room to find Yoruichi gone. A little piece of paper that read

Keep her safe, no one will be able to find you here. We will tell everyone we had to move her to a safer place and you had to return to the soul society, we already informed your captain of the situation and has agreed to comply

-Urahara

ps. don't be a bad boy :P

"That man" renji grunted as he balled the paper up in his fist "of course I wouldnt do anything like that.
