I realize that I haven't updated in quite a while and I apologise.
hazel-3017: Thanks 4 the review
arsenic-graffiti: Since they have a lead on Aizen, and that he's a traitor and now has the power of the Shinigamis and Hollows, they would have a reason to sent that many people. Also, some of them won't be appearing much…
Shinigami Rachi: Thanks 4 the review
athenakitty: I don't know about blackmail pictures but Haru's father does get quite a beating. :grin:

The Next Day, 5:45 a.m.
Haru yawned tiredly as he, Ichigo and Remus entered the Uraha Shop. "Morning." He greeted the others tiredly as he flopped onto the floor beside Orihime.
"Good morning, Haru-san and Ichigo-san!" She greeted them brightly while the others mumbled a tired hello. Orihime stood and shook Remus's hand, "Hello! I'm Inoue Orihime! It's a pleasure to meet you, umm…" She stopped when she realized that she didn't know who he was. "Anou…who are you?" She asked curiously.
"I'm Remus Lupin. It's a pleasure to meet you too Miss. Orihime." Reums replied.
Ichigo sat beside his sleeping brother before introducing Remus to the others. "Everyone, this is my little brother, Haru." He said to the shinigamis. "And this is his godfather, Remus Lupin. He'll be helping us get around London." He paused while Reums gave a little hello. "Remus, these are our friends. Ishida Uuryu, Inoue Orihime and Chad Yasutora. The cat is Yoruichi Shihouin but she's actually a woman so don't be surprised if she changes. The shinigamis are Renji Abarai and Byakuya Kuchiki, you remember them from yesterday. There is also, Hitsugaya Toushirou, Kenpachi Zaraki, Yachiru Kusajika, Kira Izuru, Shuuhei Hisagi, Ikkaku Madarame, Ayasegawa Yumichika, Hanatarou Yamada and Rukia Kuchiki. And lastly, we have the two idiots Urahara Kisuke and Gangyu Shiba.
"Hey! Who are you calling and idiot?" Gangyu started to yell at Ichigo for the insult. Urahara seemed unaffected and just laughed at the two.

5:58 a.m.
During the last thirteen minutes, the group sort of got to know each other a little more. Ichigo, Renji, Ikkaku and Gangyu were fighting while Urahara, Hanatarou, Ayasegawa, Shuuhei and Kira were watching and talking to one another. Haru, Orihime and Yachiru were talking about all the sweets that they liked, with Kenpachi, Hitsugaya and Chad suck with them. And Remus was telling Byakuya, Yoruichi, Ishida and Rukia a little about the wizarding world.
When it came close for them to leave, the shanghais got into their gigais and Urahara took out a Japanese parasol. "Okay, everyone! Please make sure that you have everything and hold on tight to it. This," He indicated to the parasol, "is a port key that will take us to London so please grab on to it and don't let go, alright." Everyone voiced their agreement and held onto the parasol. At exactly six o'clock, everyone felt a tug and they vanished from the room.

London, England
12 Grimmauld Place
10:00 p.m. (XD I actually checked what time it would be!)
(From here, they will be speaking in English)
The group landed in a heap in the middle of a large room. There was a lot of kicking as squirming around, especially from Ichigo who was mostly kicking and trying to get Haru out from underneath Renji. When everyone finally untangled themselves, they looked around the room and found no one around.
"I wonder where those people are? They were suppose to be here." Kira said as he looked around the room.
Remus, too, looked around the room, "This place looks familiar…" He paused then gasped. Everyone turned to look at him, wondering what was wrong when Remus dashed towards Haru and held him tightly. "We have to leave her, NOW!" Remus said to them.
"Remy? What's wrong?" Haru asked, worried how his godfather was acting.
"Well…" Remus paused again and sniffed the air. He then turned to growl at the large doors on the other side of the room then took himself and Haru and hid behind Kenpachi, since he was the biggest.
At that moment, the large double doors opened and several people came in. One man with long black hair and blue eyes greeted the happily. "Hello there! Sorry we're a bit late. I'm Sirius Black and I welcome you two my humble little home!"
Everyone greeted the man and the others except for Remus and Haru, who were still hiding, and Ichigo, whose attention was not on Sirius but on the man beside him who Haru looked like when he was little. Anger started to build up inside him and, with a yell, Ichigo charged towards the man and punched him hard in the face. "You fucking bastard!" Ichigo yelled and punched him again.
Everyone tried to pull the two apart until Renji and Chad held onto a squirming Ichigo. "What the heck is your problem, Ichigo? You shouldn't jump on people like that! Especially to the ones we're suppose to help."
Ichigo glared at the man he punched and tried to get free. "I'm not helping son of a bitches like him! Or his family! They can all get eaten by Hollows for all I care. Although, the Hollows might think that they taste disgusting and spit them out!" He yelled.
"You don't even know me." The man Ichigo punched said as he held onto his bruised cheek. "You probably mistaken me for someone else."
Haru froze when he heard that voice and Remus held him tighter. Ichigo continued to glared at the man and said, hatefully, "I do know who you are, James Potter! And I'm not about to help someone like you!"
"Hun?" The wizards were surprised as to how the orange haired boy knew James' name. "How?" Sirius paused and sniffed the air. He smelt two scents, one was very familiar and the other smelt a little like James. He wandered around the room while ignoring Ichigo's yells and looked behind Kenpachi to find Remus and Haru huddled together. Sirius' eyes went wide and he smiled, "Remus! You came back to me!" He said happily and was about to hug the man but Remus kicked hin in the gut and moved farther away, bringing Haru with him.
The other wizards saw the man and were happy to see him again but their smiling faces became looks of confusion when Remus growled angrily at them.
"Remus," A redheaded women stepped forward, "What's wrong? Aren't you happy that you're back home? We've missed you so much! And who is this child…?" She stared at Haru until she finally whispered, "…Harry…" Her face lit up. "You found him, Remus! You found my little baby!" She went to hug the two but Remus slapped her and moved away from her too.
"He's not your little boy, Potter." Remus said to her hatefully.
She ignored the werewolf and spoke to Haru, "My little boy. Don't you want to say hello to your mummy? I haven't seen you in so long! Come on, give your mummy a big hug."
Haru slowly faced her with tears in his eyes. "You're not my okaa-san. Okaa-san is in heaven with the angels." He sobbed as the bad memories started to flood his mind. Of bring alone. Of being abandoned. "Onii-san! Onii-san! I don't like this place. I wanna go home!" Haru started to cry. He didn't want to remember any more. He didn't want to be near these people who made the memories come back. Another pair of arms wrapped around him and hugged him gently, saying soothing words to him. Haru sighed as he hear the gentlevoice and closed his eyes.

When Haru was fast asleep, Ichigo let go of Haru and let Remus hold him. He turned to his friends and said, "You want to know way I punched that guy and said that I wouldn't help him?" Everyone nodded. "Well," Ichigo began, "Those two," He pointed towards the two elder Potters, "Are Haru's biological parents. Haru's real name is Harry Potter but got his name changed when we adopted him." Orihime, Chad and Ishida weren't that suprise to find out that Haru was adopted, but they were suprised thatHaru's biological parents weren't dead, homeless, or poor but looked like they were livingquite well enough that they could have taken care of Haru.Ichigo then glared at the Potters. "These two 'loving' (note the sarcasm) parents thought they were doing a good thing when they abandoned Haru in a NON magical orphanage." The group from Japan gasped. "What kind of 'rich', 'loving', 'wonderful' (more sarcasm), and magical parents would leave their child in a small, very far away, non-magical, orphanage?" By now, the group from Japan glared at the Potters in disgust. Even Yachiru, who has always been happy and bubbly and had started to take a liking to Haru, had a look of pure hatred towards the Potters. The people from Soul Society knew how hard it was to find biological family in Soul Society, and life would be a bit lonely until you've been taken in by another family.
It was Urahara who finally broke the silence and he too was not happy at all. "We will assist you wizards in protecting your school against the Hollows but Voldemort and his supporters are of no concern to us. We will not assist your little Order if he or his followers attack you. Our only objective is to eliminate Aizen and his group and lessen the Hollow attacks. After that, we shall leave and leave Voldemort to you." Urahara said to them coldly.
An old man with a long white beard and twinkling blue eyes stepped forward. "Excuse me, but the reason we called you here is to help us fight against Voldemort." Dumbledore said to them. "He is a danger to everyone in the world. Magical and muggle. You must help us."
"This Voldemort man has only been attacking areas in Europe. He hasn't bothered any other countries so we have no reason to fight with him." Kenpachi said to Dumbledore. "Heh. He probably isn't worth fighting with." He sighed and picked up Remus who was still holding Haru.
Remus blushed when he was carried, bridal style, by Kenpachi who headed towards the door. "Umm…Mr. Zaraki…umm…what are you doing?"
"Leaving." Kenpachi replied, "I don't want to deal with these people."
"Yay!" Yachiru cheered happily. "Let's get some food! Come on, Ken-chan! That away!" She pointed towards a door behind the wizards.
"Umm…actually, the door is that way." Remus said, pointing to the other side of the room.
"………"
"Okay then! That way it is!" Yachiru cheered and Kenpachi headed towards the exit with the others following.
"Wait! Please! Harry's my son and he must stay with us!" Lily said to the leaving group.
Remus glared at the woman. "If I remember correctly, Haru stopped being your son when you abandoned him at that orphanage and disowned him. You no longer have any rights over him. Now, if you'll excuse us. We will be leaving now."
And the group left the house.

Haru woke up and felt something warm behind him. Haru signed and snuggled up to the warmth behind him and felt the arms around his waist tighten a bit.
"Morning, Neko. How are you feeling?" The warmth asked.
Haru turned and smiled. "I'm fine, Strawberry. A bit hungry though."
Ichigo frowned a little. "About yester-"
"I'm fine, onii-san." Haru interrupted him and gave his brother a hug. "As long as you're with me, I'll be fine." Ichigo chuckled and hugged him back.
Their quiet brother time was quickly interrupted by a loud blond who decided to tease the brothers. "Oh my, Ichigo-san! How indecent! Taking advantage of your little brother like that! Oof!" The blond was then attacked by Ichigo's pillow.
"Damn asshole!" Ichigo started to yell at Urahara who ran out of the room.
Haru giggled as his brother chased Urahara, still yelling. Remus entered the room with a tray of food and sat beside Haru on the bed. "How are you feeling?" Remus asked, concerned.
"I'm fine! Don't worry, I'm over it now." Haru smiled to his godfather and started to eat some of the food Remus brought. Remus just smiled and hugged him. "So, Remy. Where are we?"
"Well, after you fell asleep, we left and found this nice hotel to stay in. When Ichigo took you to put you in bed, you wouldn't let go of him. It was so cute!" Remus chuckled at Haru's blush.
"Not as cute as you blushing when Kenpachi carried you out of that house!" Urahara said from the doorway before dashing away. Remus was then the one to blush and Haru started to giggle.

Okaa-san - Mother
Onii-san - Brother
Neko - Kitten
Ichigo's name means strawberry.
Haru's name means spring but I think kitten suits him better.
