Kazuki closed his eyes and expected the worst. "Dance! Sode no Shirayuki! Hakuren!" yelled Rukia. Kazuki gasped. "Mom!"Rukia froze the person in a sheet of ice with her zanpaktou. 'I wonder why the random guy decided to attack us?' she wondered.
"Umm...mom?"
"Yes?"
"Where's Tsuki?"
Rukia pointed to a nearby tree. "Right there." she said with a sight smile. She walked over to Tsuki and picked her up. She started to wake up in Rukia's arms. When she opened her eyes,the first thing she saw was the giant ice wall. "Mommy? What happened?" asked Tsuki,still looking at the ice wall. "Don't worry about it Tsuki." said Rukia. "Who was that person Mom?" asked Kazuki. "I don't know Kazuki. I really don't..."
After Rukia changed back into her gigai,the three of them started to walk home. Rukia told Tsuki what happened when she was asleep. Tsuki was now holding her mother's hand while walking with Kazuki. She looked up at Rukia. "Mommy?" "Yes? What is it Tsuki?" Tsuki looked down. "Do you think that person took Daddy?"
Rukia looked at Tsuki to face her. "I don't-"
She was cut off by a black slash of light. She quickly grabbed Kazuki and Tsuki and dodged it. 'That looks like Getsuga Tensho! No could it really be him?' she wondered. Kazuki and Tsuki hide behind Rukia. Rukia tried to looked for the person who released the Getsuga Tensho lookalike. She couldn't find him with her eyes so she tried to feel if she could the person's Spiritual Pressure.
'Damn! I can't sense any Spiritual Pressure! He must of hide it!' she cursed to herself.
Suddenly,the person who released the Getsuga Tensho lookalike flashed stepped in front of a tree by Rukia and the kids. The darkness of the night hide his face. The only thing Rukia saw was that he was wearing Arrancar clothes. 'An arrancar? Or is he an Espada?' wondered Rukia. She put hand in her pocket and had her hand on her Soul Candy just in case. "Who are you? Show yourself!" He didn't step forward,instead,he flashed stepped. Rukia gasped and pulled out her Soul Candy and popped in the pill. He came in front of her to attack her but she blocked the attack with Sode no Shirayuki. "Chappy! Watch them!" Rukia yelled to her gigai. "Yes Rukia-sama!" replied back Chappy. She took one last look at Chappy and her children and attacked the young man.
Rukia slashed the young man on his shoulder. He was refusing to attack back. 'What is up with him? How come he won't attack back?' wondered Rukia. She couldn't see his face due to a hollow mask he was wearing. "Your hollow mask looks a lot like my lover's mask." she said. He didn't say anything. Rukia attacked him again,this time hitting his mask. The left part of his hollow mask broke into pieces. It was now showing part of his face and his lovely hazel eye. Rukia smirked then gasped,dropping her sword.. Her eyes were wide in shock. "No...it can't be...Ichigo!
Without anyone knowing,two other people were watching the fight from the roof of a building. A young man sighed. "Another good one dead. What a waste." "Are you sure this a good idea Master Shino?" asked a young girl.
"Yes I'm sure Shiroi." replied back Shino, "After all,he hasn't seen her or them for a long time."
Shiroi looked down at the fight. "I still don't feel like this was a good idea Shiro..."
Shino sighed and faced Shiroi,grabing her under her chin. "Don't you worry Shiroi. After this fight,we'll simply capture Rukia Kuchiki and her children. Okay,my lovely little sister?"
Shiroi turned away from his eyes. "Fine big brother." Shino smirked and let go of Shiroi's chin. "Well then..." he looked down at the fight. "...it looks like they're finishing up. Let's go Shiroi."
She nodded. "Yes Master Shino..." They then jumped off the building's roof and flashed step to the fight.
"Ichigo? Is that really you Ichigo?" yelled Rukia. Ichigo slowly nodded his head. "Yeah...it's me Rukia..." She ran to him and embraced him with a big hug. "I missed you so much Ichigo! I knew you weren't dead!" yelled Rukia,with tears of happiness in her eyes.
Ichigo hugged her back. "I have too. How are you and the twins?"
"I'm fine and so are Kazuki and Tsuki. We all missed you so much."
"That's good. I love you Rukia."
"I love you too Ichigo."
"Awwwwww,isn't this cute?" said a sudden voice. Ichigo gasped and growled. "Shino..."
