Shiro, Grimmjow, Renji, and a few other random alphas from the village stood near each other. Grimmjow stood a bit away from them, so they could discuss and he could observe. Shiro and Renji were going to hunt together along with Grimmjow. "Oi, Shiro, how's Ichi been?" Renji asked when he walked over to them.
"Well…a bit stressed…but he is fine" Shiro replied, running his fingers through his snow colored hair.
"May I ask whats stressin' em' out?" Renji asked, his tail swishing around lazily. He was a wolf hybrid.
"Normal stuff…lack of money, kids' safety, Kuro being an ass and rebelling…and Aizen decided to make him train blueberry" Shiro replied.
"I have a name" Grimmjow growled.
Renji chuckled a little. "Rukia's not much better."
Shiro snorted. The alphas were splitting up. "C'mon red…blue" Shiro commanded, starting to leave.
"Oi oi, you know my name." Renji huffed, following him.
Grimmjow snorted and followed. Shiro just gave Renji a shit-eating grin.
Renji rolled his eyes and stuffed his hands in his pockets. Shiro suddenly stopped. In front of the trio was a deer. It was a rather large one. Shiro grinned. He knew it would take more than one person to take that thing down but it would be an enjoyable time doing it.
Renji grinned as well. Grimmjow was watching any and all movements made by the prey. Shiro was about to explain how hunting worked but he noticed Grimmjow wasn't paying any attention to him.
Renji glanced at them. "Oi, we need to get it before it goes any deeper into the woods." He stated quietly.
Shiro nodded. "We should attack it from both sides" Shiro suggested.
"Or one of us could scare it straight into the others…and then surround it so it can't escape" Grimmjow suggested, with a cocky smirk.
Shiro frowned. It was a good idea. Renji smirked a little. "Pretty good fer a beginner. But do ya know how to actually catch it?" He chuckled quietly.
Grimmjow turned back to the deer. "Do you need a demonstration of that?" he asked, looking sideways at Renji.
Renji smirked a little. "If ya can handle it."
Grimmjow grinned. He picked up a rock and he threw it at the bushes in front of the deer. They rustled. The deer panicked, whipping around and racing straight at them. Grimmjow was on top of it in an instant. He killed it with a swift snap of the neck. He only bit what he fucked.
Shiro looked surprised. Renji did too. "Damn." He muttered.
Grimmjow smirked. "…You hunt well" Shiro blinked.
"It was a necessary skill" Grimmjow shrugged.
"That's normally more than we usually get in a day. Means we can go in early." Renji smirked, walking over to the deer and picking it up.
"Cool" Grimmjow nodded. Renji chuckled as he hauled the deer over his shoulder. Shiro and Grimmjow got up and followed him.
Renji had wandered his way to the river. "...God dammit, Shiro, you know I don't know my way around the forest!" He grumbled as he glared at the water.
"That's why I let you lead…it's funny to watch" Shiro snorted.
Grimmjow blinked. He had been here before. He trailed his eyes up and saw the same hybrid from before. The young hybrid had white hair that covered where human ears would have been if he had them and it spiked out randomly on the sides of his head. He had rather big light blue ears that twitched every few seconds and a long, fluffy tail of the same color, both standing out against his pale skin. He was wearing a light pink shirt that was much too big for him so it seemed like a dress. He was hovering over a bunch of different herbs that he was gently nursing with water like a mother would do for their child. Even from the long distance away, Grimmjow could see the white eyes surrounded by an ashy white color.
Renji blinked, looking over at him. "...Never seen 'em before..." He said. "Oi!" He called out.
The younger male flinched before looking over at them. "Yes?" he called back.
"Never seen you before." Renji stated, starting to walk over to him.
"Not surprised" the other replied, looking back at his herbs. Shiro and Grimmjow followed Renji.
"Oi, Shiro, he looks just like ya." Renji noted. "Almost as if he was Yuki's twin." He chuckled.
"…What does he look like? And who's Yuki and Shiro?" the younger hybrid asked.
"...An' oddly reminds me'a Kuro." Renji sighed, ignoring the other hybrid for a moment. "By the way, he come back yet?" he asked.
"Not that I know of" Shiro replied.
The other hybrid looked worried for a second at the mention of Kuro before wiping it from his face. "Excuse me…but if you aren't here to ask for herbs or directions then please leave" the other hybrid sighed.
Renji shrugged a little. "Hey Shiro, the hunting party aught to be gathering by now. Let's head back." He stated, glancing behind him at Shiro.
Shiro nodded. "Follow me" he said and started away. Grimmjow glanced at the young hybrid who was nursing his herbs again before following Shiro. No one noticed the oranget sitting in the tree, waiting for them to leave. Renji grumbled something before following Shiro.
They were soon back at the house, Renji having parted ways with them after the hunting party had been dismissed. They hadn't been aloud to have any of the catch because they were 'just making up for the day before'. Grimmjow thought that was a bit stupid but didn't argue too much. Shiro was still a bit surprised by Grimmjow's skills and knowledge, not that he showed it.
"Daddy!" Came Yuki's voice as he ran up to the two of them and hugged Shiro's leg. Apparently Ichigo had gone and gotten him while they were out.
Shiro scooped up the child with a grin. "Why hello Yuki!" Shiro chirped, kissing his son's forehead. Yuki giggled and clung to him tightly, his tail waving around happily as his ears twitched. Shiro ruffled Yuki's hair with one hand. "How have you been?"
"Good! But Sofu's house was borrrring!" He huffed, drawing out the word 'boring'. He scowled slightly before looking up at his father with big eyes. "Did you get any meat for us?" He asked hopefully.
Shiro smiled at the part of Sofu's house being boring, cuz it was. "Sorry Yuki…didn't get any…I will get some soon…mkay?" Shiro promised.
Yuki pouted a little before nodding. "Yuki…have you seen Kuro?" Shiro asked.
The little boy's ears drooped a little before he shook his head no. Shiro pulled Yuki's ears back up. "Don't worry…he will come home soon…I know it" Shiro soothed.
Yuki continued to pout but nodded a little. Shiro kissed his forehead again and then headed into the house. Grimmjow followed them.
Ichigo was sitting on the 'couch' in the living room, and was sewing something made out of a light blue material. He glanced at them. "Grimmjow needs the right color shirt. Since he has not gone through his passage he needs a shirt." He huffed, looking back down at the material in his hands. "Did you make up for yesterday?" He asked as an afterthought.
"Yeah…Grimmjow already knew how to hunt" Shiro stated.
"You didn't ask if I could or not, you just assumed I couldn't" Grimmjow snorted.
"…Also Ichi…Grimmjow might be going through his passage very soon…he made a clean kill to today" Shiro added.
"I snapped the neck…that wasn't much of a clean kill with all the blood going back and forth from the head to the heart" Grimmjow rolled his eyes.
Shiro stared at Grimmjow. "Huh?" he asked.
"Well he needs to learn our ways and the ruins' history. So there's not gonna BE a passage till then." Ichigo stated, not bothering to look at them. Yuki giggled a little.
"…Okay then" Shiro replied. Grimmjow just shrugged.
Ichigo sighed a little before holding up the shirt. He then got up and walked over to Grimmjow and handed it to him. "Go see if it fits." He said. Grimmjow took it. He glanced at it before shrugging and starting to take off his shirt he had on.
Ichigo stared, wide eyed and blushing a bit before he turned away. At that moment he wondered if he'd be able to look at the man after his passage, when he'd be shirtless all the time. Shiro scowled. He was tempted to smack Grimmjow and grab Ichigo and proclaim that the oranget was his and only his. Grimmjow had to smirk at Ichigo's reaction. He changed into the light colored shirt. "Seems to fit" he stated.
Yuki was giggling loudly. Ichigo glanced behind him before looking straight forward again. He was still blushing and his tail was still and slightly frizzed. Shiro frowned. He was jealous of Grimmjow. "Nice shirt blueberry" a voice yawned.
Kuro walked by his family and Grimmjow. He looked dead tired, like he would fall asleep any second. He was trudging towards his room. His hair was a mess, he had dark circles under his eyes, his ears and tail seemed to hang limply.
Ichigo's eyes widened as he whipped around. "Kuro!" He exclaimed, rushing over to him and pulling his eldest son into his arms in a tight hug. He then pulled back a little. "You have NO idea on how much trouble your in! I swear..." He started to rant, a stern look on his face as he continued on.
Kuro's eyelids drooped a bit. "Mom…can you yell at me later…I am a bit tired…and having trouble standing as it is" Kuro stated. He was sorta balancing on his right leg while his left leg just hung, not broken but absolutely sprained to the very least.
"What happened to you!" Ichigo started to panic and fret over him. "Nii-san!" Yuki exclaimed.
"I'm fine…just need a bit of rest" Kuro replied.
"What happened" Shiro demanded.
"Got in a small scuffle" Kuro sighed, his right leg shaking a bit from him putting almost all of his weight on it.
Ichigo continued to panic as he pulled his son over to the nest in the living room and made him sit down. He sat down on the ground Indian style next to him and started to examine his leg. "Kuro, with who?" He asked sternly as he began to softly feel out his leg for any breaks. Yuki had climbed out of Shiro's arms and was peaking over Ichigo's shoulder as he stood on his tip-toes.
Kuro was silent. He watched his mom feel for breaks. Grimmjow walked over and looked over Kuro's leg from behind Ichigo. "It's dislocated…and sprained…it probably wouldn't be as bad, but you can tell he's been walking around it and straining it…but it should heal pretty quickly if he stays off it after someone relocated his bone." Grimmjow explained. Shiro was staring at the bluenet with a shocked expression.
"Kuro, tell me." Ichigo nearly growled. "I need to know who hurt my baby..." He mumbled.
Kuro looked away. "Not much of a who…more of a what" was all he said.
"Than what?" Ichigo huffed, his hand trailing to his thigh. "Does it hurt here?" He asked as he pressed down gently.
"I can't feel it anymore" Kuro replied, ignoring the first question.
Ichigo pressed his lips together. "Answer the first question." He started to push down on the leg and he felt the bone shift ever so slightly back into place.
Kuro stayed silent for a moment, just watching his mother shift his leg back into place. "I don't know" he sighed finally.
Ichigo bit his lip. Hard. "Just don't scare me like that again, okay?" He asked softly after a moment, his eyes downcast as he finally shifted his son's leg back in place. "And before you ask, your still punished.." He sighed after a moment as he slowly stood up.
"Assumed that anyway…now may I go to sleep?" Kuro asked.
Ichigo scowled a little. "...Fine, but not in your room. I want to keep watch over you." He sighed, his tail loosely looping around his waist. "Besides, Fuyu's sleeping at the moment." He mumbled.
Kuro nodded slightly. His eyes looked heavy and he curled up and went to sleep without another word. Ichigo looked upset as he climbed onto the nest next to him and ran his fingers through his hair softly. Yuki climbed up as well. He wiggled into his big brother's arms and curled up. Shiro went over to them, curling around his mate and tempting to comfort him. Grimmjow just watched.
Ichigo leaned back into him with a small sigh, his eyes closing and his ears drooping. Shiro kissed Ichigo's head. "Get some sleep Ichi" Shiro murmured.
"...Fine," Ichigo mumbled after a moment, moving to curl up around his eldest son. Shiro kissed Ichigo's head and then each of his kids' foreheads.
