Ch. 6
It is now Monday, Ichigo, Renji, Rukia, Byakuya, Ikkaku, and Yumichika are heading to school. Ichigo is in front and talking to the gang as a car comes toward them.
"Look out!" yells Renji
Ichigo being the one who'd get hit hides underneath the closest car. There is a crash and the driver comes starts to crawl out, and the driver helps her up.
"Thank-you." says Ichigo
"I'm so sorry, my wife is about to have a baby and I lost control. says Driver
"I'll take a look." says Ichigo, washing her hands with her water from her water bottle. (another F.M.A.B moment)
"What you're just a kid!" says Driver
"Yeah, I'm also a nurse at Kurosaki clinic it'll be fine." says Ichigo
She goes to the passenger's side and sees the wife inside.
"Hi, I'm Ichigo Kurosaki, do you mind?" asks Ichigo
"No, go ahead dear." says Wife
Ichigo looks her over and sees that she is dilated 10.
"Damn!," says Ichigo, she takes her phone out and dials 9-1-1. "Hello, Yes we need an ambulance A.S.A.P. enough room for mother and baby now! The mother is in labor and is ready to push, this baby isn't going to wait, so bring a doctor to look over them both! I am on Cherryblossom Tree and River Street….(made streets up) ...Okay, thanks bye."
She hangs up the phone and fishes out her wallet and hands it to Renji.
"Listen and Don't argue! We need a basin, water, rubbing alcohol, and towels. A baby is on its way, so go to the closest store! And don't take too I am going to need your help. " says Ichigo
"Sure." says Renji and Rukia, Renji leaves
"Dad! Here now, you're baby's about to be born, Mom will need you." says Ichigo
She opens the back of the van doors and prepares the van best to her ability for childbirth. The dad helps the mom into the back, and Ichigo kneels down and gets into catching position. The guys turn around and block the view from passersby.
"Okay, Mom. I need you to push on three, ready?" asks Ichigo
"Yeah" says Wife
"One, Two, Three push!" says Ichigo
The wife does, and Renji comes back and lays the stuff in front of Ichigo. Ichigo instructs Rukia what to do with the stuff and how to do it with what they had around them. While she gets the wife to push and helps her through labor. Two hours and forty minutes later Ichigo is holding a baby. The ambulance show up and has been there but do not interrupt the birthing process.
"Congratulations, it's a girl., Rukia, can you cut the cord as close to the navel as possible?" asks Ichigo
"Sure." says Rukia, she grabs scissors from Byakuya's backpack and cuts where Ichigo points too.
"Now what?" asks Driver
Ichigo wraps the baby up in the towel, and holds the baby out to the Driver.
"Dad, give your baby to Mom." say Ichigo
He does, and the new Mom holds the baby on her chest and thinks about a name for her new baby girl.
"Ichigo? We'd love to name our child with a name that means the same, is that alright?" asks Wife
"I'd be honored. Thank-you." says Ichigo
"Rukia, could you be the godmother along with Ichigo?" asks Wife
"I'd be honored, thank-you." says Rukia
"Her name is Akita Yuki Ohayashi." says Wife
"Now, Dad needs to take rubbing alcohol, and wash Akita-chan." says Ichigo
"Right" says Driver, he takes Akita and rubbing alcohol and bin to wash her off gently.
Ten minutes later the paramedics have returned after dropping the new family off to the hospital.
"Ichigo. You need to come with us." says Paramedics
"I'm fine." says Ichigo
"You're covered in blood." says Paramedics
"That's the mom's I'm fine." says Ichigo
"Alright" says Paramedics, they leave again
"Ichigo! Get up or we're leaving ya!" calls Ikkaku
"I would if I could." says Ichigo
"Only Lil' Red would lose energy after squating for two hours." says Yoshi
Ichigo's blood vein shows on her head.
"Only one numbskull would dare call me 'Lil Red' Yoshi! Where are you?!," yells Ichigo, Yoshi squats down in front of her. "Geez you're annoying Mario and Yoshi."
Yoshi bops her on the head.
"Stop calling me that!" says Yoshi
"Why?" asks Ichigo, bopping him back.
He grabs her arm and pulls her on his back, and stands up holding her piggyback style.
"Wait...What in the world are you doing?" asks Ichigo
"Taking a stubborn person to school. God, how much do you weigh?" asks Yoshi
Ichigo bops him harder on the head.
"A) Didn't your mom tell you it's rude to ask a girl how much she weighs? B) I weigh a lot less than you!" says Ichigo
"You're a girl!" exclaims Yoshi, with sarcasm, he starts running toward school.
"Shut up! I've known you since I was eight, so you know for a fact that I am a girl!" says Ichigo
"Quite yelling! Lil' Red I will drop you." says Yoshi
"Ugh! Fine. So why are you running?" asks Ichigo
"'Cause your Grandma and Auntie are fifteen minutes behind us." says Yoshi
She plops Yoshi's hat on top of her head.
"Thank-you, I owe you one." says Ichigo
"Two! One for carrying you, one for protecting your butt." says Yoshi
"I can protect myself, thank-you." says Ichigo
"Oh, then I can drop you, and you can explain to Grandma and Auntie why you are covered in blood." says Yoshi
"I'm kidding!Go! go! go!" says Ichigo
"Better." says Yoshi
Yoshi takes her into the school and ignores her constant pleads of letting go. Until he finally reaches the classroom.
"For the billionth time put me down!" says Ichigo
Yoshi drops her and on the way down Ichigo kicks him.
"Ow! What the hell was that for?" asks Yoshi
"That's my line!" complains Ichigo.
"What I want to know is-" says Teacher, she sees the blood. "Who did you fight now?"
"I'm fine, I just helped a women give birth. I'll go wash up." says Ichigo, getting up from the floor.
"Alright, be back here not covered in blood." says Teacher
"Yes ma'am" says Ichigo, she leaves
After a long day of school everyone meets up at the dance studio. The students are sitting on one side, and the parents, and Ichigo's friends are sitting on the other.
"Alright little ones watch and get ready to repeat everything! Let's have our very own red headed Outcast, and her Big brother come out and show us how to do the first dance!" yells Madam.
Ichigo and some older guy comes out. "Church" plays on the boombox and the two battle it out exactly the same way that it is in Step up 2, the first battle. The rain starts pouring it down. And Madam has everyone go outside after the two younger ones do the same thing that they did. The older ones go out and do the last dance of the movie Step up 2, exactly the same way except that Ichigo puts her hand on her pants leg. They dance to the song "She ain't got no money in the bank." and "Break" in the rain, and the younger ones repeat what they did.
"Excellent work! Well lets go inside and I decree that the rest of the class shall be free dance!" calls Madam
Everyone cheers and goes inside and dances to whatever music plays. When Yoshi comes up to Ichigo and the gang.
"What is it, Yoshi?" asks Ichigo
"Come with me, I found something interesting." says Yoshi
"Where are we going?" asks Ichigo
"The office" says Yoshi
Tatsuki and Ichigo trip, but gaining their balance.
"I hope you mean the assistants office." says Ichigo
"Nope, Madam's office." says Yoshi
Without another word Yoshi drags Ichigo into Madam's office.
"Okay, we're here, now what?" asks Ichigo
Yoshi shows Ichigo a photo.
"Look, Ichigo." says Yoshi, pointing to the picture.
"Some kids, so?" asks Ichigo
"Who's that in the photo?" asks Yoshi, points to a certain little girl.
Ichigo smiles recognizing the child immediately.
"That's my mom, she took ballet here about twenty years ago. (most likely not) Is this all you wanted to show me?" asks Ichigo
"Think back, what did Madame always say? She said that she was a teacher here for twenty years." says Yoshi
"But she's not in the photo." points out Ichigo
"Exactly! In fact she's not a teacher here until four years before our class." says Yoshi, showing her pictures
"So she's not as experienced as she says, she's a fraud." says Ichigo.
"Ding, ding, ding. Give the little lady a prize." says Yoshi
They leave and the next day after the recital Ichigo decides to take a shower. Her Grandma knocks on the bathroom door.
"Ichigo? I'm coming in." says Grandma
She comes in, and sees Ichigo's bruise that no longer has swelling.
"What in God's name is that?! (again don't want to offend anyone) " she exclaims
Ichigo panics and pulls her shirt down.
"Grandma, it's nothing! Really!" says Ichigo
"Isshin!," Grandma yells, she drags Ichigo into the kitchen by her wrist.
"Grandma, can't we talk? It's nothing really!" says Ichigo
"Yes?" says Isshin
Grandma lifts Ichigo's shirt so the whole bruise is showing.
"What is this? And why is it on her?" Grandma demands
"Grandma, I can explain." says Ichigo
"Oh" says Auntie
Ichigo face Yuzu and Karin who are giving her the 'Please don't tell her the truth yet.' look.
"I fell." says Ichigo
"On what?!" demands Auntie
"A bar on the stairs at school. The floor was slippery I ran and met the bar head on, and when I fell I hit the stairs on my side too. Can I go now?" explains Ichigo
Grandma lets go of Ichigo's wrist, nods at Auntie and they both head for the door.
"Yes, we'll be back tomorrow, good-night." says Grandma
