Just as Shiro said, he was back an hour later with a large case of money. Tensa was carrying a second smaller one for his master. They met in the parlor as they did before, Shiro making sure to read over the papers before signing them and handing over the money. Ichigo looked worse off than he did the last time they saw him, the oranget an emotional wreck over what it might do to his children. This time he actually had shorts on. After shaking hands and saying their goodbyes, Shiro grabbed Ichigo's leash, gently pulling the oranget to his feet with a hand on the hybrid's arm rather than tugging on the leash. The oranget flinched away from him but didn't complain.
The albino led Ichigo out to his car, gently pushing Ichigo into the backseat before kneeling a bit as he undid the collar from Ichigo's neck. The oranget shifted to the other side of the back seat once he had it undone. "Tensa, can you sit in the back with Ichigo and make sure he's comfortable?" Shiro asked.
"Of course Shiro," the small hybrid nodded before climbing in the back. Shiro closed the door and went to the driver's seat and started to drive.
After a short drive, Shiro pulled up at a small mansion. Shiro, being raised a gentleman opened the backdoor for the hybrids to get out of. "Tensa, can you go tell Hel and Roshi to come downstairs so they can meet Ichigo?" Shiro requested. The small hybrid nodded and ran off into the house. Shiro turned back to Ichigo.
"W-why..." Ichigo started, "did you take me a-away from th-there?" he coughed some, the excessive use of his already broken voice hurting him.
"Why not? You didn't seem too happy there and he beat the shit out of you already. It's better I take you than he selling you off to another bastard," Shiro explained, offering a hand to Ichigo to help him out of the car.
"Th-thats normal..." the oranget hesitated but took the hand after a few seconds. "A-and I didn't want to leave.. h-he'll let them do horrible things to my kittens now..."
Shiro tugged the oranget from the car, half carrying him inside, ignoring the comment. In the front room of the house was a hallway to a medium sized living room which Shiro went to. There was a large couch with two albino hybrid males there. The bigger one had short and more spiky hair compared to Shiro but a similar color though a bit more ashy white than Shiro's snow colored hair. The bigger hybrid had blood colored eyes and dark red pointed dog ears twitching in his hair and a similar colored tail wrapped around the smaller albino hybrid. The dog hybrid only wore a pair of black jeans, leaving his muscular chest bare.
The smaller hybrid leaning against him was drooling and seemed to be half asleep, his eyes drooped along with one of his ears, which were striped like a tiger's. He also had ash hair, but it was kind of stringy and fell past his shoulders by a few inches. His eyes were exactly like Shiro's, but instead of gold they were a very pale yellow. He wore gray nightpants and an oversized black shirt.
Shiro glanced at Tensa who had 3 newborn hybrids on him, curled up into his warmth. "How did you end up with the kits?" the human chuckled.
"Roshi refused to wake up so Hel had to carry him and I got the kits because I had empty hands," the hybrid replied, petting the middle child on his lap.
"W-what..." Ichigo stared at Tensa, completely frozen.
"Shiro went and bought them before going to get you," Tensa stated. Ichigo was over to him in an instant, gathering the three of them into his arms and holding them close. Shiro smiled, glad to have bought the family back together. He left the room briefly to get a first aid kit.
Two of them were wolf hybrids, one a male with gray animal features, and pale skin and pale orange hair. He was missing the end of his tail, and more than likely a wound rather than a defect. Another that looked just like him but female had darker animal features, and all of her tail. The last one was male, and was noticeably smaller than the other two. he had cat features that were orange but his hair was brown. Both of his ears had multiple nicks in them, and one of them seemed to have some sort of piercing at some point. Either a little girl had gotten ahold of him or it was a tag. Shiro came back into the room and Tensa moved away from Ichigo, going and wiggling under the alpha male hybrid's other arm that wasn't around his mate already. Shiro sat down next to Ichigo. "Ichigo," he started softly. "Can you hand me one of them to look over and give first aid to?"
The oranget only held them closer. "I'm n-not letting them go a-again!"
"Two of them are bleeding from what I can see. I need to check them over so their wounds can heal..." Shiro sighed. " ...and I need to look over you too," he added a second later.
Ichigo shook his head and held them tightly. "I barely know their scent... d-don't make me let them go again..."
"I will try to be quick about it, after I look at you and your kits then you can go rest with them. But I need to look them over and such so their wounds heal, this is especially important because of how young they are. Even a tiny wound could kill them, they have been lucky to have lived this long with those wounds," Shiro tried to explain.
Ichigo bit his lip, and after a minute he gave the smallest one to him. Shiro gently and carefully took him. He cleaned the nicks as gently but thoroughly as possible. Then he got out some bandages with one hand and skillfully, but gently wrapped the newborn's ears. Then he did a quick check-over, happy to find nothing else wrong with the kit. He handed the infant back to Ichigo. The oranget licked the boy's cheeks to help warm him up again before giving him the little girl.
Shiro quickly noticed she was burning up. "Tensa, could you go get some cool water and a washcloth?" the albino asked. The brown haired male nodded and slipped away from the alpha male to do as he was asked. He came back quickly with a small bucket and a washcloth. He dipped the cloth in the water, rung it and gave it to Shiro who laid it on the female hybrid's forehead. The child whimpered at the coldness and squirmed, but she didn't try to take it off, rather, she didn't have the strength to reach it.
"How old is she?" Shiro asked.
"A-all three of them... are about nine days..." Ichigo murmured. "They took them from me a-a week ago... I think..."
Shiro sighed. He couldn't give her medicine for the fever if she was this young.
"W-why?"
"If she was a bit older I could give her something to help with the fever," Shiro replied.
"Sh-she has a fever...?" Ichigo asked and shifted closer, his tail moving to curl around her. "She must be cold..."
"Probably," Shiro nodded. Ichigo held his other two kits tightly. "W-will she be okay?".
"I believe so. As long as she is kept warm and the fever is kept down, she will be fine," Shiro replied.
"O-okay..."
"D-do you want to see my other o-one?" Ichigo asked after a moment, seeming to trust him slightly more. Shiro nodded, taking the child when he was offered. Shiro disinfected the wound and wrapped the child's tail.
"Did you name any of them yet?" the red eyed male asked, Tensa back at his side along with his actual mate.
"..." Ichigo looked down at them. "N-no. I didn't get enough time with them..."
The alpha nodded understandingly. "Well you should name them now, unless we should just refer to them as child 1, child 2, and child 3," he teased.
"W-well... master had said that we aren't allowed to name the cubs because it was what the master that bought them was supposed to do... S-so I can't name them..."
"I'm changing that rule because I'm not good at naming," Shiro stated.
"I will say," the red eyed male rolled his eyes.
"I'm sorry, it was the first time I heard that word and she was describing you," Shiro responded.
"Th-their masters might have already named them..." Ichigo mumbled. He coughed a little.
"Just name them," Shiro sighed.
After a few seconds Ichigo pulled his little girl closer to him and rested his forehead against her warm cheek. "... H-hope," he murmured, before releasing her. He touched the smallest one's forehead. "...Timmy," he then touched the one that had half a tail's forehead. "Alek..." He closed his eyes.
"Good names," Shiro nodded. Ichigo looked up at him, unsure of what to say. He held his three kittens close again.
"Shiro... you should look at Ichigo too... he's got some bad wounds," Tensa put in.
"I-I'm fine..." Ichigo mumbled and coughed.
"Not really," Shiro shook his head.
"I'm u-used to it... I'm fine,"
"No."
"You should just give up and let Shiro look over you and fix up your wounds, he's not going to take a no for an answer," Tensa stated.
Ichigo bit his lip. "... Okay..."
Tensa got up to take the kits from Ichigo. The oranget watched him before shifting closer to Shiro. Shiro carefully examined Ichigo's arms, looking for breaks, cuts, and bruises. "Your arm is fractured." the albino stated.
"It i-is?" The oranget frowned. "I don't feel it..."
"I'm assuming your arm is numb," Shiro sighed.
The oranget nodded slightly. "Yeah..."
"Hel... could you go get some wooden boards, the same size and pretty thin along with some of that elastic fabric we have somewhere in the medical closet," Shiro requested.
"Yeah," the red eyed male nodded. He gently laid Roshi on the couch instead of leaning on him. Then he left to go get what Shiro asked him to get. The beta albino cuddled into the warmth that was left on the chair.
Shiro gently placed the arm in Ichigo's lap and went to examine the other one. Ichigo kept looking over at Tensa, and only spoke when Shiro tried to examine his torn ear. "Th-that one is fine, it's... old..."
Shiro frowned, but let it go. Hel came back and Shiro took it. The hybrid returned to his spot with his mate. The human fixed a splint on Ichigo's arm. "You will only really be able to use your other arm, hopefully they heal fast though," Shiro stated as he started to cleaned and bandage the smaller cuts and other wounds.
"C-can I have my kittens back now?" Ichigo asked softly. Tensa almost pouted but returned them. "You can play with the kits from work tomorrow," Shiro told Tensa amusedly. The young hybrid nodded happily. Ichigo laid his three kittens down, close together before he curled around them. Shiro pulled Tensa onto his lap, petting the hybrid's head who purred happily.
Awwww Shiro is too nice... and a doctor and a businessman xD
Anyway quick explaining thing... Roshi is an OC me and Via made for a different rp (not saying which because that would be some spoilers and stuff) though he is technically Via's since she plays him and made him up... basically he is cute uke Shiro... that's the easily way to explain him. And if you don't like him, tough luck xD He and Hel have wiggled into many rps xD
