Urahara left behind a friend. He had known Urahara since they were kids.
***Flashback***
"Hey, you need a place to stay?" The blond boy asked. The kid had been about to sleep against the side of the house. Not waiting for an answer he grabbed the boy's hand and led him into the house, asking the him what his name was.
"Mayuri."
"No last name? You know it's not safe to sleep outside, even though there isn't much crime here in the 12th district. Where is your family anyway?"
The blue haired child was bewildered by the sudden onslaught of questions. The blond yelled something about Grandma and company through a doorway.
