A/N OK so I think I have this chapter and one more based on the same day at the same time im sorry I just had an idea for two more scenes on the same day and had to use them.

Chapter 3

Earlier the same day.

Isshin was standing on his rooftop in shinigami form staring at the sun,waiting,knowing what was to come as he felt two new spirit pressures enter karakura town, one belonging to a certain young captain the other to a friend who shouldn't be out of bed! A few seconds latter and the white haired captain of squad 13 appeared behind him. Iishen sighed at this. "so to what do I owe the plesure of this little visit Joshiro?"

"What isn't a man allowed to visit one of his oldest friends from time to time?" isshen sighed and sat down a sad look in his eyes. "We all know your wife wouldn't even let you sit up unless it was important, and a little chat isn't." Ukitake sighed in defeat and took a seat next to his life long friend .

"you got me, im hear to talk to you about you coming back to the seireitei." Isshen looked towards the sky a look of depression appearing on his face as he recalled the reason he refused to return.

"I figure as much since the young captain is currently with Karin." he stared of in the direction of there reiatsu, at that moment Karins reiatsu flared which told isshen that she was giving him a bad time. "But you know why I wont leave, iv told you time and time again."

Ukitake stared into the man's eyes seeing the sadness and feeling that he had to persuade the man to return even more else he tare himself apart with grief . "Its been four years since you cleansed her soul, she is probably waiting for you and looking for you."

Ishen turned tears now running down his face like a water fall."Yes but what if she doesn't remember me, or the kids. None of us could stand that kind of rejection!." He quietly began to sob as Ukitake gently rubbed his back.

"she will remember, you just have to hope and have faith. Most quincy still had there memory's once they died. Do you remember the Rukongai rebellions? After you left we found out it was led by the quincys who still held a grudge. I suppose you would if your whole race was wiped out, but that's a different discussion."

"Hows Shunsui, being head captain must be taking its toll on him." At this point he was grasping for straws, any way to get away from the current topic and by himself some time to think things over and discus them with his family.

"He's fine, doing better then expected actually, he has already abolished central 46. Now can you stop changing the subject, if you need time to think then just say so." he was staring at his friend with a knowing expression, having known the man for his entire life he could read him like a book.

"Thank you, I need time to discus this whole affair with my fama..." he was cut of as ukitake started coughing and keeled over as his body started to go transparent, isshin caught ukitake just before he fell of the roof and took him inside where he lied him on the sofa and went to call the captain of squad 4. when he returned he found that ukitake had returned to normal and was know sleeping. A few minutes latter Retsu arrived.

"How is my husband" was the first words to come out of her mouth when she arived a concerned look on her face as she spared a glance towards the one man that she crred for more then anything before returing her focus to Isshin.

"He has stabilized and is just resting know, I advise leaving him for a few minutes before you wake him." She let out a breath she was not aware she had been holding, although she knew his condition better then anyone she still worried when ether he had an episode.; Isshen let them into the kitchen and offered her a glass of water which she accepted. "there is something I would like to discus, has he ever shown symptoms besides coughing and collapsing?" Retsu had to think for a little while before replying "no he hasn't why?"

"His soul started to diminish when he went into the episode, its returned nowb ut it concerns me, do you know whether squad twelve have finished that device that allows you to look into the past life of someone yet?" She was shocked at first and then remembered thats tjust the sort of thing the Kurosaki siblings would keep from him.

"They just developed the prototype Karin and Ichigo are testing it for them to help her train." Isshen was heart broken why did his children find the need to hide these things from him?

After the captains of squad 4 and 12 had left iIshen decided to go to bed early and instantly fell asleep. Karin arrived home not long after and whent to bed after dinner. Her sleep was restless, visions of the seireitei burning hollows swarming the last remaining shinigami and her brother standing atop sokyoko hill surrounded by the strongest shinigami, all of the captains,herself and her family and that girl her purple hair tyedup by a red ribon and her amber eyes sparkling as she listened to Ichigos speech, then all of the shinigami jumped down from sokyoko hill landing in the rubble and charged towards the oncoming army. Karin was trying as hard as she could to wake up horrified as she watched her brother enter his second banki form and charge before being swted away he then got back up and activated his vasto lorde powers the image shifted and she saw herself and hitsugya standing back to back fending of waves of hollows and she wanted to scream as she saw hitsugya impaled by an arancar this continued for the rest of the night she continued to witness the last moments of her friends and family's life's before she finally awoke to find her dad and brother standing over her both with a worried look in there eyes.

A/N foreshadowing! The device is not the animus a swear, sorry for how long this took but I had exams then I decided to buy star craft 2. 10 points to whoever can name the girl in her dreams. please review.
