Like Mother, Like Son.

Kurosaki Ichigo was walking to school, reminiscing about the days when he would instantly dart to his mother's side as a small child. For a second, he paused, sensing thathe was being followed. He turned to look over his shoulder.

"Ithigo!"

In an instant Ichigo felt the force of a tsunami crashing in to his side as he crashed in to a garbage can.

"Ithigo! Ithigo!" a small Nel Tu exclaimed,bouncing on Ichigo's torso as he recuperated under a moldy old banana peel.

Isshin saw the whole thing from a distance and he chuckled.

Like Mother, like son.
