"Let's Go Shopping"

Okay, to those reading my Digi-Bleach story, U'm sorry for the lack of updates, but I'm suffering from writer's block. I've deleted and rewriten the next chapter quite a few times since I can't decide how I want to continue it. But I am working on the chapter and will update the story again when I get a clearer idea on how I was to proceed. Please enjoy and review!

Daisuke Motomiya and Yuzu Kurosaki were both in the kitchen wearing aprons as they cooked breakfast that morning for the family.

Karin Kurosaki was seated at the table sipping a glass of milk as she watched her fraternal twin sister and older cousin both work; Yuzu was cooking bacon while Daisuke was mixing pancake batter.

"Hey, when's breakfast gonna be done? I'm starving." the black haired girl spoke up.

"Hold your horses. It'll be done soon!" Yuzu, the cheerful brunette, chirped as she glanced over her shoulder at her sister.

"You know, we could've finished faster if we had some help." Daisuke commented as she poured the batter into the frying pan that had been coated with vegetable oil.

The batter sizzled as it formed into a circular shape and began to cook.

"I told ya, I can't cook. And it's not like we can trust Dad or Ichigo to handle our food. They'd probably poison us." Karin said as she leaned back in her seat.

"Good point." the mahogany haired girl shrugged.

As she used a spatula to flip the pancake, Daisuke then sensed a group of familiar spiritual energies, but shrugged it off.

She didn't want to ruin her quiet morning with her family just because some of her Soul Reaper friends were in town.

All the times she had to leave to go train and fight evil made her feel guilty because she couldn't tell Karin, Yuzu or her uncle Isshin anything about where she and Ichigo were going or if they would ever come back.

Today she wasn't going to do that.

Today she was going to relax and behave like any ordinary 14 year old girl by calling up her friends to spend time with them or maybe go out shopping with Yuzu or play soccer with Karin.

Either way, today was going to be a nice and normal day without any Soul Reaper duties for her.

"Don't jinx yourself, kit." a familiar voice spoke up in Daisuke's mind.

She frowned at this as she continued baking the pankcakes and flipped them into a plate when they were done.

"Oh, shut up, Kiseki." Daisuke retorted to her Zanpaktou spirit, Kiseki no Kitsune.

"Breakfast is served!" Yuzu cheered as she walked over to the table and set down the plate of bacon.

"Looks great." Karin said with a small smile as Daisuke walked over and set the plate of pancakes down on the table as well.

"Dig in. We might as well eat before Ichigo wakes up." Daisuke said as she took a seat.

"I wonder why he's sleeping in so late. It's 9:00 am. He's usually up by now." Yuzu mused as she poured herself a glass of milk.

"It's a Saturday. I would rather still be asleep right now too. If Dad didn't make so much noise leaving this morning, then we'd probably all still be in bed." Karin frowned.

Shaking her head at her crazy family, Daisuke smiled as she then started eating her food along with her two younger cousins, enjoying the peace she had.

The girl then perked up when she spotted a familiar blue dragon with a feline shaped body sneaking into the kitchen.

V-Mon looked over at her human and smiled when she saw that the two 12 year olds were preocupied with their food and were talking, so the dragon rushed over to Daisuke and hopped into her lap.

When she was seated in her human's lap, V-Mon started sneaking the food off the girl's plate without being noticed by Yuzu or Karin.

The duo of Miracles had learned how to perfect this routine to make sure no one noticed the dragon, whom everyone thought was a plush toy, was alive and could eat their food.

While Daisuke was eating, she was stunned when she sensed a familiar spirit energy nearing the house, but decided to ignore it since it couldn't be who she thought it was.

She always had a strong sensory power, but perhaps it was getting a bit faulty with all the new creatures that were coming to Karakura such as the Arancars, Soul Reapers, the Bounts, Hollows and the Vizards.

Just then, the doorbell rang making the three females perk up as they looked over at the door curiously.

"I wonder who that could be." Yuzu mused.

"Who would come here at this time?" Karin asked with narrowed eyes.

"I got it." Daisuke said as she stood up.

V-Mon jumped to the ground and followed her human out when she was sure Yuzu and Karin weren't looking, but she missed the fact that the raven haired twin had seen her and was staring after her in suspicion.

"Who do you think is at the door, Daisuke?" V-Mon asked when the two females had stepped into the hall and were far enough away from the kitchen so they weren't heard.

"I don't know. It's probably one of the Soul Reapers on duty in town. I swear, if they came to mooch off of us, I'm slamming the door in their face." Daisuke frowned.

The Soul Reapers who came to work in town seemed to think that the Kurosaki/Motomiya cousins were meant as hosts for them to take advantage of.

Many of the Soul Reapers had tried to stay in the house to relax or even have a quick drink of sake, but ichigo refused to allow them to stay and Daisuke would fire off a kido blast to scare them off.

Once she was standing in front of the door, the child of Miracles sensed that familiar spirit energy and felt her chocolate brown eyes going wide in disbelief.

"No way." she whispered as she yanked the door open.

Standing there on the front steps was a 17 year old girl with long flowing magenta hair, chocolate brown eyes, fair skin and was wearing a green halter top with a pair of jeans and white wedge sandals.

V-Mon's jaw dropped at the sight of the person standing in front of them.

"Hey guys. Miss me?" Jun Motomiya smiled.

Getting over her shock, Daisuke tackled her sister outside and V-Mon slammed the door closed behind them as the three females stood outside.

"What are you doing here?! Are you insane?" Daisuke yelled at Jun.

"That's rude. I came all the way from the Soul Society to visit my baby sister and she's being mean to me." Jun teased.

She smirked when she saw her sister's face turning red in anger while V-Mon was terribly confused.

"But Jun, didn't you die a few years ago? What if someone sees you? That could cause a bit of trouble." V-Mon pointed out.

"A lot of trouble! What if Yuzu or Karin saw you? They would freak!" Daisuke waved her arms around in her anger.

"Geez, chill out." a male voice spoke.

Behind Jun a tall, broad shouldered young man appeared.

"You're giving me a headache. Honestly, there's no need to shout." the male chided mockingly.

He had orange hair that hung over his dark orange eyes, whisker marks on his angular face and he wore a skin tight green body suit that was sleeveless while he wore black boots.

On top his head were a pair of cat ears that were orange and had black stripes and he had a matching tail that swished behind him in amusement to match the smirk he wore.

This was Jun's Zanpaktou spirit, Taiga Kingu, a tiger demon who was quite cocky and was fierce when it came to battle.

"Oh, you shut up!" Daisuke growled as she pointed at the tiger demon who was taking great pleasure in annoying his mistress' younger sister.

"Aw, what's wrong? Did I upset you? Well, I'm sorry. I can't help it if you're too easy." Taiga cooed making the girl growl as she held up a fist.

"Do you two always have to fight every time you see each other?" Jun asked as she looked at her Zanpaktou spirit.

She didn't know how her sister could hear and see the Zanpaktou spirits, but Jun found it to be interesting how Daisuke could even walk into a person's Inner World.

After all, she had done it plenty of times with Ichigo and had interacted with Zangetsu and the troublesome Hollow that she had named Shirosaki since he refused to tell anyone his real name, if he even had one.

Kiseki always used this ability to go visit her Zanpaktou friends such as Sode no Shirayuki, Zabimaru, Haineko, Tobiume, Benihime, Suzumebachi, Kazeshini, Fujikujaku and Hyourinmaru.

Mostly Hyourinmaru.

She didn't like going to visit Senbonzakura because of how much he annoyed her; one minute he was ever the polished noble and the next he was a spoiled brat that was throwing a temper tantrum.

Everyone still had a hard time believing that Byakuya Kuchiki was once like that too when he was a teenager and when he was asked about it, he would simply scare the person off with the icy look he gave them.

"What can I say? It's just too much fun." Taiga smirked showing off his fangs.

Kiseki then appeared beside him and whacked the male over the head making Taiga cry out in pain at the sudden show of violence by the fox demon.

"Will you stop harrasing my kit? You're not amusing in the least." Kiseki's hot pink eyes were narrowed at the orangette.

Taiga pouted at Kiseki as he tenderly rubbed at the abused area of his head.

"Ah, you're not gonna get into too, are you?" V-Mon asked.

The digimon was able to see the Zanpaktou spirits due to the connection she has with Daisuke and she was every bit a part of her as Kiseki was.

Scoffing, Kiseki crossed her arms and flipped her long silvery blue hair off her shoulders and hit Taiga in the face with the strands making him hiss at the fox.

"I'm not going to waste my breath on him." Kiseki said as she rested a pale hand on her cheek that had cherry blossom pink colored streaks across it.

Taiga growled and was about to retort, but was cut off by Jun placing a hand over his mouth to keep him silent.

"Anyway, the reason I came here is because the Women Soul Reapers Associaton are having a beach party!" Jun announced with a large smile.

"A beach party? Don't they have a pool or anything in the Soul Society?" V-Mon asked.

"Actually, no." Jun gave a nervous grin.

Taiga and Kiseki then faded back into their Inner Worlds to leave their mistresses alone to speak.

"What's with the look?" Daisuke raised an eyebrow.

"Oh, nothing!" Jun sang as she folded her arms behind her back innocently.

"Uh huh. Whatever. Why did you come to visit me though?" Daisuke asked deciding to forget about what her sister was thinking of previously.

"Well, the girls and I are all going swimsuit shopping! I decided to come get you to join us. You love the beach, remember? Our family used to have so much fun there." Jun smiled.

Both sisters thought back to the time the Motomiyas lived in Karakura when Masaki Kurosaki was still alive.

Kosuke Motomiya, their father, and Isshin would always cook the hamburgers on the grill while Kushina Motomiya, their mother, and Masaki would talk to each other about anything and everything as Jun played with the twins and finally Ichigo and Daisuke would be off playing in the sand.

"Yeah, we did have some great times at the beach." Daisuke said with a fond smile.

Giving a sigh, the young Soul Reaper gave her older sister a defeated grin.

"Okay, fine, I'm in." she said making Jun jump up and give a quiet squeal of victory.

"Just let me get my purse first. C'mon, V-Mon." Daisuke said as her dragon jumped onto her back and clung to her shoulders.

"Yay, the beach!" V-Mon cheered.

"Hurry up! We need to meet up with Rangiku and the others soon!" Jun called after her sister as the girl walked into the house.

Once back inside, Daisuke took off her apron to reveal the black tank top that cut off at her bellybutton and the purple skinny jeans she wore.

"V-Mon, go get my purse. I'm gonna tell the twins where I'm going." Daisuke whispered to her partner.

"You're gonna tell them your dead sister is here to take you to the beach?" V-Mon asked with a quizzical look.

"No! I'm gonna tell them I'm going to the beach with my friends." Daisuke snapped.

"Oh, that's makes more sense. I'll be right back." V-Mon said as she jumped off her partner's back and ran up the stairs.

Sighing, Daisuke shook her head as she then walked into the kitchen to see Yuzu was washing her plate off.

"Hey, so, who was it?" Karin asked as she brought her plate over to the sink.

"Oh, it was a friend. They invited me to go to the beach with them." Daisuke explained.

"That sounds like fun! When are you going to be home?" Yuzu asked.

"I'm not sure, but I'll be back in time to help with dinner. See ya later!" Daisuke waved over her shoulder as she left the kitchen.

"Bye!" Yuzu called as she waved her cousin off.

"She's always disappearing with those weird friends of hers." Karin commented as she rubbed the back of her head.

"Oh, come on, Karin. She was here for a year with no friends. Now she has a whole lot of them. We should be happy for her." Yuzu said.

"Yeah, I guess." Karin sighed.

Jun and Daisuke were walking off towards the mall while V-Mon hid in her partner's purse, also wanting to join them at the beach.

As they walked inside the mall, the Motomiya sisters found the group of Soul Reaper women standing in the food court waiting on them.

Retsu Unohana was the first to spot them and smiled in greeting and turned to the other women which consisted of Rangiku Matsumoto, Nanao Ise, Yachiru Kusajishi, Kiyone Kotetsu and her older sister Isane Kotetsu, Yoruichi Shihoin, Soifon, Nemu Kurotsuchi and Rukia Kuchiki.

"They're here now." Unohana said.

"Oh, it's about time!" Rangiku called as she waved at the sisters.

"Sorry we're late. Daisuke kinda freaked when she first saw me." Jun grinned.

"Well, you are supposed to be dead. If anyone recognizes you, it'll cause an uproar." Nanao said.

"Thank you!" Daisuke exclaimed, happy that the woman understood.

"Miya!" Yachiru yelled as she jumped on the girl making her gasp as the pinkette swung around her waist.

"Let's go find some cute suits!" Yachiru giggled.

"Yeah, let's go!" Kiyone cheered.

"I can't wait to see what kind of swimsuits they have! I want one that's really sexy." Rangiku said as she started walking off.

"Oh, I'm not sure about this." Isane said nervously as her little sister dragged her off.

"Don't be such a baby." Soifon retorted.

"Girls, you're going the wrong way!" Daisuke called making the group of women stop and turn to see Daisuke, Yoruichi, Nemu and Jun were still standing.

"Well, where is the store?" Rangiku placed her hands on her hips.

"It's this way. Come on." Daisuke turned as she started walking off.

"Yeah! Everyone follow Miya!" Yachiru giggled as she bounced after the girl.

Rukia chuckled in amusement as she followed the pinkette and her young friend.

"I wonder what I'm going to buy. It's been a while since I've worn a swimsuit. Usually I just go in the water stark naked." Yoruichi said making Jun laugh.

"That sounds like fun, but I think some people might have a problem with that." Jun sang.

"Skinny dipping is very inappropriate! I can't believe you actually think that kind of thing is fun." Nanao scolded.

"Oh, you're just jealous because you don't have the figure for it." Rangiku teased.

"Shut up!" Nanao yelled at the strawberry blonde.

"Well, this'll defintely be an interesting experience. Have you ever gone to the beach before?" Rukia asked Daisuke as she walked beside her as Yachiru clung to the girl's waist.

"Yeah. When I was younger, my family used to go to the beach all the time. The last time I went to the beach was a few years ago with Yolei and Cody. We were celebrating the end of the Digimon Emperor's reign while Kari and TK went to New York to visit Mimi and 'make me jealous'." Daisuke explained.

She lifted her fingers and made air quotes when she said 'make me jealous' because she didn't have feelings for TK Takaishi at all back then.

The thing she was jealous of was the fact that Kari Kamiya, a girl she had known for years, had been keeping secrets from her and had been ditching her to spend time with the child of Hope.

"Make you jealous?" Rukia asked in amusement.

"Ugh, they somehow got it into their heads that I had a crush on TA." Daisuke rolled her eyes.

"Hmm, I think I remember you telling me about him. He doesn't sound like your type, though." the raven haired, violet eyed Soul Reaper mused.

"Miya only likes strong guys!" Yachiru chirped.

"And older guys." Yoruichi teased as she stepped up beside the short girls with Jun.

"Now, now. No arguments." Uohana chided with a soft smile.

Everyone tensed up at the look since the woman was quite frightening when she wanted to be.

"Um, so, where is the shop? Is it near?" Isane asked hoping to stear everyone's attention away from her frightening Captain.

Honestly, the woman could give Kenpachi Zaraki a run for his money as the scariest Captain of the Gotei 13.

"Yeah, it's on the next level." Daisuke pointed to the elevator.

"Oh, wow!" Yachiru giggled as she bounced over to it.

"What is this thing?" Kiyone asked.

"It's an elevator." Yoruichi said.

"Come on, let's go." Jun smiled as the women all walked inside of the elevator.

"Oh, this is very uncomfortable." Nanao groaned since there were 13 women in total inside the elevator car.

"Suck it up." Soifon growled, also hating the tight spacing.

Jun then pushed the button and the elevator started to move making Yachiru laugh in glee while the Soul Reapers all stared down through the glass doors to see the people walking around the mall.

The car then stopped moving and the women all pushed themselves out of the elevator and looked around eagerly at the floor.

"C'mon, guys. The shop is this way." Daisuke said as she walked off with Yachiru clinging to her hand, giggling excitedly.

"I wonder what these bathingsuits look like. I've heard of these bikinis before, but I'm curious to see what they are." Rukia said as her violet eyes took in the mannequins in the shop windows dressed in summer clothes.

"Well, you've seen some of the underwear I have, right?" Daisuke asked.

"Yes. What about it?" Rukia asked curiously.

Jun giggled as she shared an amused look with Yoruichi.

"What she's trying to say is that that's what a bikini is. It's basically underwear, but sometimes more revealing." Jun winked.

Rukia, Isane and Nanao both went pale at this while the other women all laughed in amusement as they walked into the shop.

"Don't worry. I'm sure there will be something more repectable to wear." Uohana smiled.

Everyone then gasped in awe at the colorful bathingsuits that were on hangers or were being modeled by mannequins.

"Yay! Let's shop!" Yachiru giggled as she ran off into the shop.

"President, please don't make a mess." Nemu requested as she followed the short pinkette.

"Ooh! Let's go!" Jun cheered as she grabbed her sister's wrist and pulled her over to a rack while the other women all walked off.

"Should I get this? Or is it too flashy? We're going to the beach, so I'm allowed to show off a bit. But showing my midriff is kind of embarrassing..." Nanao blushed as she held up a wine colored two piece.

"Why's it giving you such a hard time? It doesn't really matter what you wear since you don't have any boobs to show off." Rangiku teased as she jiggled her breasts at the black haired woman.

"Leave me alone!" Nanao yelled in anger at the strawberry blonde.

"I guess I'll go with this one." Yoruichi said as she held up an orange bikini that had green floral designs.

Soifon stared at her mentor in awe while Nanao and Rangiku continued to argue with each other over the bathing suits.

"Soifon, I picked out a swimsuit for you, too." Yoruichi said as she held up a one piece that an elementary schooler would wear.

The sight of the plum colored, figureless one piece made Soifon stare in horror and grabbed a pretty, more mature yellow one piece to show off to her mentor.

"Y-Yoruichi-sama, I'd like to get this yellow..." Soinfon started, but was surprised to see that Yoruichi was already standing at the desk to speak with the clerk.

"Give me one of these." Yoruichi requested.

"Very well." the brown haired woman smiled at the tall black woman.

"Yoruichi-sama..." Soinfon whined as tears fell down her face in despair.

"Too bad. That yellow one would've looked good on her." Jun shrugged as she held up a green bikini.

"How nice... Captain Soifon's short enough to have a lot of suits to choose from. There aren't any cute swimsuits for tall people..." Isane said sadly.

"Nee-san! I found the perfect swimsuit for you!" Kiyone chirped as she bounced over to her older sister.

When she looked at the swimsuit, Isane was stunned to see that the one piece was cut open in the center and would barely cover up her breasts.

"H-Hold it, Kiyone! There's no way I would wear that!" Isane protested to her giggling sister.

"Oh, my! Isn't that lovely? This is what I'm going to wear." Uohana said as she revealed the white and blue one piece she chose.

There were no sides on the suit, but the suit was held together by two strips of white.

Kiyone and Isane stared in shock at the suit the refined woman had chosen since it appeared to be very revealing.

"These go great together, you should get that one, Isane." Uohana insisted.

"B-But Captain..." Isane protested.

"Get that one, Isane." Uohana demanded polietly with a chilling smile.

"O-Okay. I'm sorry." Isane appologized as she held the suit her sister picked out, both girls looking frightened.

"I'm not sure what I want. It's so hard to choose." Rukia sighed.

"Yeah. I haven't been swimsuit shopping in a while. It's hard to decide what I want wear." Daisuke said as she crossed her arms.

"Daisuke!" V-Mon called making Daisuke and Rukia look down at the dragon.

She was dressed in a yellow two piece and the bottom had ruffles that looked adorable on her.

"What do you think? Cute, right?" V-Mon giggled as she spun on one foot while the two Soul Reapers laughed in amusement.

"I'm sure Wormmon would love it." Rukia grinned making V-Mon blush happily.

"Hey, maybe you should go as XV-Mon. That way you can really show off." Daisuke winked.

"Good idea." V-Mon giggled as she hopped off to find a new suit.

Yachiru was running around the shop, throwing different swimsuits around as she laughed and Nemu loyally followed her.

"Oh, girls!" Jun cooed as she bounced over to Daisuke and Rukia.

"I found the perfect suits for you two." Jun said.

"Oh, thank you. That's very kind." Rukia smiled.

"Yeah. Now I'm worried." Daisuke frowned at her sister.

"Have some faith in me, dear sister. Here, check these out!" Jun held out the two bikinis.

The first bikini was a cherry blossom pink with red designs on it, but wasn't very revealing since it looked like a sport's bra with tiny straps while the second bikini was white and the top was cut into triangles.

Rukia's eyes grew large in amazement while Daisuke's eye started to twitch.

"Which one is for who?" the girl asked.

"This cute little number is for Rukia." Jun chirped as she handed the pink bikini to the raven haired woman.

"Ah, thank you." Rukia smiled at the teenager.

"And of course, this one is for my adorable little sister. We need you to look good for the boys." Jun teased as she handed the white bikini to Daisuke.

Twitching in annoyance, Daisuke accepted the bikini and glared at her sister who was smiling proudly at her accomplishment.

"J-Just go help the others." she groaned as she pointed over at the women who didn't have swimsuits yet.

"Okay!" Jun sang as she bounced off.

Rukia looked over at her friend in amusement and smiled at her.

"It's not that bad. I think the color will compliment your tanned skin." the Kuchiki heiress complimented.

Sighing, Daisuke pouted as she held up her bikini and wondered if she could find a wrap to wear over it.

Shaking her head, the girl then looked around the shop and smiled as she watched her friends all laugh and argue with each other.

"Well, at least today's gonna be fun." Daisuke said as Rukia nodded at her.

"That's the spirit." Rukia said.

To be continued...
