Okay here's Chapter 4 and it is re edited yay! hope you enjoy it!
'How is he alive he supposed to be dead, he's Ichigo's father? That sure does explain a lot of things though. But why does everyone think he's dead? Did he fake his death or did something happen? But why would he fake his death, was it for ichigo's mom? I going to act as though I don't realize it him and have this go thought the plan of this party. But how is Captain going to react to seeing him, and how is all this going to play out in the end?
So she went over to the closet when she went in she find it was easy to find the photo album as she pulled it down a few photos fell out when she saw what there were she tear up they were with her Toshiro and Gin in front of the ten barracks she remember how they were just like a family. As she put that down on the shelf so she wouldn't step on it.
The first photo she saw was Ichigo mother with a huge stomach and Isshin behind her holding the pink stomach with a wide goofy grin. She was beautiful she had a mix between brown and orange hair color. She was in a dress that went down to her knee caps and then it was round on the stomach. Isshin was wearing a white dress shirt with black dress pants. Under the picture on the album book there's a paper that said Masaki pregnant with Ichigo, her first born. Rangiku pulled it out and look at it with sadness in her eyes.
So this is Ichigo's mom. She beautiful is this why he fake his death because he fell in love and wanted to be with her instead of in soul society. No don't think about it Rangiku. But she couldn't help the tears again. Did he even miss us or even think about us?
Masaki in a white t-shirt and green sweat pants with a stomach twice and big and Ichigo was holding her hand on her right while Isshin was holding her left hand. Under the picture on the paper it said Masaki second pregnancy seven months and twins Karin and Yuzu. She pulled that one out as well then she flip though trying to find one with them as a family.
They were all sitting on a brick ledge with a huge water fountain behind them and Ichigo in Masaki lap with Karin in Ichigo's lap. With Isshin on the left of Masaki and then had Yuzu on his lap. Masaki arms where wrapped around ichigo's stomach an Ichigo had Karin leaning on his chest. Her head was supporting his hands. Then Isshin hands where to his side with Yuzu leaning in his chest. Rangiku smile softly to herself.
Then she flips to another page and another looking for a family picture without Masaki when she found one but she flip right past it because she didn't like it but it must likely meant something to the family. They were all dressed in black and Ichigo was glaring at the camera with a fist and Karin had her arms crossed glaring as well. Yuzu looked like she was bawling and then Isshin was smiling which made him look like an odd ball. Rangiku remembered how he would act as though nothing was wrong when there was something wrong so you never knew in less everyone was upset.
Then she flip throw some more pages and found a good one with Ichigo on his stomach with his folded hands on top of each other under his chin. Karin sitting with her leg folded under her butt with her hand on her lap and sitting in the middle of Ichigo backs, mirroring Ichigo trade mark scowl. Then Yuzu head was laying on Ichigo left side of the space that Karin hadn't taken up. She was looking towards the sky smiling happily. Then Isshin was in the back on a white fence sitting with his arms out wide laughing. She pulled that one out as well.
As she gathered the pictures she picked p and closed the album and put it back on the shelf she knock another book of and pick it up but saw it read journal she opened it and saw it dated the day his death was said to have happen. She knew she shouldn't read it but she couldn't help it. But she'd had to send Uryuu on the way first. She put the book under the bed and grabs the pictures and runs downstairs.
"Uyruu!" she yells and goes into the living room to find him setting up the table for the food behind the couch. Uyruu turns around " are you ready to go now "? " well um Uryuu I forgot I have something else that needs to be done, so can you go and do it by yourself, pick out some good frames as well"? Uryuu looks annoyed but takes the pictures that Rangiku is holding up any way and leaves.
Rangiku starts to walk back up the stairs ignoring the weird looks Orihime and Renji where giving her. When she reaching the top of the stairs she runs to his room and races to the bed and gets the journal.
She flips through to the first page. Then she sees the writing on the page and starts to read the elegant writing.
I can't believe I didn't see throw Azien and fell for his trap now I have no powers! What am I going to do now? I hope they don't believe I'm dead and if they do what's going to happen to Toshiro. I wonder who their pick for his Captain and I hope his good to Toshiro and Rangiku. I wish there was a way I could send word to them but I know I can't.
Damn it! I still can't believe I fell for his kindness act. Now I have to pretend to be a human. I got a gigai from Kisuke and I can't believe I didn't believe Him I fell like a asshole. I'm sitting in the grass at a park and I have planned that since I have to live as a human I have to go to a school they call collage I think I'll become a doctor. Wouldn't the head Captain be proud of me. For thinking all this though and making an plan. I sure am going to miss my squad and Toshiro, Gin and Rangiku a whole lot.
As Rangiku finished that entry she realized Azien had taken his powers and forces him to act as though he was a human. He believed we would get a different Captain, not that Toshiro would take up his Captain post. Then how did he meet Ichigo mom.
Rangiku then flip through to a few weeks later and once again start to read the elegant writing.
So I start class a week ago and it so different from soul society you don't have to wear a uniform and you can classes what class's you want and everyone is treated the same no noble's I changed my name from Isshin Shiba to Isshin Kurosaki. I wonder how my brothers and sister are. Kaien a lieutenant I hope he's careful and does a good job.
I wonder what they think about my death. Oh there some sugar thing they call ice cream and they have so many kinds there. One that is watermelon that Toshiro would love and then there so many shops Rangiku would love and spend all day in. Its true what they said about the world of the living it is another world complete.
So he did think about us.
Rangiku skip thought five pages.
I met this beautiful lady today she is so kind her name is Masaki. When I saw her she was helping a little boy who fell. I think I want to take her out on a date. I asked her and she said see you Saturday at five o'clock I wish Rangiku was here to help me get ready and Toshiro to said It no big deal it just a date. I can't wait. I hope there all doing well in soul society and Toshiro Captain is allowing him to still be a kid at least a little.
Oh Captain Isshin he became the Captain and never be acting like a kid again. Once again Rangiku started to cry and flip though half the book.
Ichigo is going to be born soon we can't wait I told Masaki about my family from soul society leaving out that there where dead already and so am I she believe Gin was my Sister Rangiku's husband and Toshiro was there kid which they died from a gas leak in the house.
Oh how miss them and wish I could see them again. I wonder if I should be worried about ichigo seeing sprits. With my powers sealed so I don't know. I hope not because despised loving the people in soul society I don't want that life for my son. I don't want him having to be attack by hollows either. But I guess I'll see what happens.
This time Raniku starts to bawl. Oh captain we missed you too, so very much. I am sorry that your son had to lead a life you didn't want him to. She calmed down and went to the back of the book.
My poor son he so sad and angry and believe he killed his mother. A hollow came after him and she must have gotten in the way and taken the blow from the hollow. I should have knew he would be able to see sprits.
Somehow I know he'll be pulled into the world of soul reapers I better start training him and keeping an eye on him Kisuke said he would to. This is going to be tough oh why did he have to be pulled into this why!
Rangiku shut the book now understanding a lot more. He believed ever thing would be different then it is. Rangiku then heard a beep and open up the cell phone that said some Captains where coming to check out some weird sprit pressure. Please don't come here. Please Rangiku begged in her mind. Then it started to ring and she answered it "hello". "So you're on your way back okay thanks Rukia"." Yeah I'm fine, why"? Oh I'm just tired for some reason. Okay sees you then". She closes the phone and went down stairs not realizing she was still carrying the book.
When she got down stairs she saw the videos where out and the pictures were up and surprising Toshiro hadn't noticed them.
Okay you guys there on the way back so pick a spot to hide she said as she realized everyone was back and everything was set up.
As they were waiting in their hiding spots Ichigo family had just pulled in to the drive way.
When Byakuya and Utitake just showed up sensing the sprit pressure was there in the car. When Ichigo got out with Rukia, Yuzu and Karin while his dad stayed in the car for a minute that was surprising, then when he got out, that when Byakuya flashed step over to him and pointed his sword at Isshin throat.
"Hey Byakuya what are you doing"? Screamed Ichigo while Karin looks to be losing her temper and screamed "don't touch him" and Rukia to look surprised and then to the surprise of Karin, Ichigo and Rukia Isshin said "don't worry". Yuzu was looking on in confusion then just shrugged and went to open the door and that's when everyone heard "SURPRISE"!
Everyone in the drive turned to the door where they had heard the shouting from. Byakuya was frowning while still having his sword to Isshin throat. Utitake was smiling trying to lighten the mood not knowing what's going on either.
Rangiku then spoke" we wanted to cheer you up Ichigo, so we throw you and your family a surprise party". Isshin then cleared his throat and then Toshiro came out "are we going"- that when his face turned from bored to shock to sadness, and spoke seven words that would change everything once again. "Captain Isshin you're supposed to be dead". Karin waved but that was it not knowing what to do, while once again Yuzu look on in confusion. Not knowing what was going on. So she just stood there.
When Renji came out he look confused at Byakuya then Utitake then Isshin his Confusion turned to shock. While Ikkaku and Yumichka seem to mirror what Renji had just did.
Then ichigo screamed after too much silence. What everyone else seems to be thinking? "WHAT IS GOING ON HERE, WHY ARE THEY CALLING YOU CAPTAIN"? Byakuya turned to Ichigo with his sword still pointed to Isshin neck and spoke calmly in his stoic voice "you are not just a human after all Ichigo Kurosaki". "What" shouted Ichigo, Rukia and Renji along with Karin who looked about ready to blow from angry? But then spoke up.
"You mean dad is a soul reaper as well"? Spoke up Karin Ichigo face turned sharply to Isshin and said" Is that true"? Isshin sighed and "why don't we all go inside and talk".
Byakuya looked to be thinking it over while Ikkaku and Yumichika went on inside with Renji right behind leaving Toshiro Rangiku Karin and Yuzu as well as Byakuya, Utitake, Rukia and ichigo with his dad. Byakuya nodded reluctantly dropping his sword after saying "don't try anything". Isshin just nodded leading everyone into his house. When they came in Uryuu, Orihime and Chad all look at them in confusion.
Isshin spoke to everyone "find a place to sit, Yuzu sweetie would you go make twelve cups of tea." Yes Daddy" she said she left the room Isshin sighed once again.
"Well Ichigo um I was once a Soul reaper Captain of the thirteen guard squad". Renji, Yumichka, Ikkaku and Ichigo along with Chad, Orihime, Uyruu and Rukia looked shocked. "Yes very shocking I know, I had been Captain of the tenth squad, with Toshiro as my lieutenant and Rangiku as my third seat".
"They were my family along with Gin; we did a lot of thing together had fun together, along with having each other back all the time. One day I was to send to this world on a mission, with Azien as my partner, while here he caught me off guard and trapped me, he sealed my powers off.
Luckily Kisuke Urahara found me and taught me what I needed to know, to live in this world and pretend to be human, he made me a gagi, and taught me to be a human, then I went to college and I met your mother and fell in love with her". Isshin then stood up and walk over to the living room window and place his left hand on the window glass and look out it with a sad face.
"When I married her and wasn't really thinking about what my kids would be like, but then she told me she was pregnant and I had no choice but think about it, what would he be like, would he see sprits, would the soul society come after them"?
I hope with ever fiber in my being that you wouldn't ever be able to see sprits, or become involed with soul reapers. He turned around suddenly sharply and look at Ichigo with intense eyes that somehow was still able to show sadness "But you did".
"I knew that day Rukia came, that your time to shine had come, I knew every sense your mother was killed by that hollow. That you would become one, I still couldn't see hollows, but I knew from the wound that it was a hollow".
The next morning I knew you were one, and it hurt to know that my son would be out there risking his life. Now don't get me wrong I love soul society and, missed my family" he said this turning to look at Toshiro and Rangiku. "But you were different, mostly after your mother death and, I knew you would oppose them". He smiled "so I went on pretending not know what was going on. Wanting you to have something to come home to that was the same".
He then sat down heavily. Surprising no one had spoken. He sighed Yuzu came in carry tea she handed it out but. "You mean you can see them Yuzu"? Spoke Ichigo in his soft kind voice that surprised everyone. "Yea she can she been able to see sprits for a while now, she was just hiding it not wanting to trouble us or worry us". Spoke up Isshin and then he said" these are some of Ichigo and daddy's friend, sweetie".
Yuzu then and nodded, and sat down on the floor, with her own cup of tea. "Well where was I"?" Wanting him to have something the same around him" spoke up Utitake." Oh yea I remember now thank you". Karin started to explain to Yuzu what a soul reaper was and Ichigo was one and, then what they had just learned. Yuzu look at her dad and brother in awe.
"Then when you left for Soul society to save Rukia, I prayed you would come back alive". I was surprised when Kisuke told me about you and how far you can go, I think your become stronger than even me".
I am proud of all you have been able to do and, Toshiro Rangiku I have proud of you guys too, I hope your new Captain is a good guy". Toshiro stood up and turned to Isshin and said "I am the new Captain have been since you left, Rangiku is my lieutenant". Isshin looked shock" you're the new Captain oh I am so sorry Toshiro". He said and sighed and sad sigh.
Ichigo then spoke up "So my whole life has been a lie. I have to think about this I am going to my room'.'Ichigo wai"- Ichigo hand was held up to said quite. "Dad your lied and told half-truths and kept quite so please just give me time". Ichigo then began to walk away when Rrukia spoke "wait ichigo we set up this party, so you could relax and cheer up, please don't go shut yourself away" pleaded Rukia Ichigo sighed and hesitantly nodded.
"Oh right least start the party" shouted an existed Rangiku. Jump to her feet the turned to the couch and look at Byakuya and Utitake and asked "are you guys staying, please"? Byakuya was about to shake his head no when he saw Rukia looking hopeful at him and the spoke emotionless" that would be fine, but I have to report all this back to the head Captain First, then I'll be back"." I'll stay as well and catch up with Isshin" Spoke the sickly Captain Utitake. Isshin smile at him then looked at his son and frown Utitake went up to him. "Don't worry He'll come around I know he will, he a good kid"." Yes he is a good kid". He spoke so soft that only Utitake could understand.
Yuzu went to help get the snacks for people Karin and Toshiro were talking but he was looking at Isshin when he felt Karin nudged him. "Go talk to him, though I warn you he hardly ever serious". While he was walking to Isshin, Rangiku was putting on music and Ichigo was arguing with Rukia and Renji while Uyruu was helping Yuzu serve everyone. With Chad Eating chips and dip. On the couch then Yumichika and Ikkaku joining him and talking quietly together. Byakuya went in to the kitchen to send in the report.
Although Byakuya would never say it, It had a slight crush on Ichigo along with Ichigo. But Byakuya refused to let it grow, he would not go through that pain again. So with one last look at Ichigo he left the room.
