Isshin left the presence of Ryuken almost unscathed, with only a few minor cuts around his body. As he entered his home in his tattered clothing, Yuzu ran up to him.

"I'm sorry, Father, but I must not allow you to pass!" she stated in an official tone.

"Oh no! My deceased wife! It seems that my beautiful daughter Yuzu is throwing me away the same way that her elder brother and sister have! Please help me, Misaki! What should I do?" he wailed as he threw himself at the poster on the wall. Mid-air, he received a swift kick in the side from Karin, who rolled her eyes at his overreaction.

"Shut up, we're trying to treat some patients."

"But doesn't Daddy deserve to be taken care of too?" he begged. Karin grabbed one of their many first-aid kits lying around and threw it at him. "Do it yourself, you big wimp!" Isshin started crying, and threw himself against the poster. This time, without being abused for it. As he babbled on to the photo of Misaki, Karin entered a room down the hall, greeting her patient.

"Hey Toshiro, you feeling less drugged-up?"

"No. I really don't think this is necessary, poking a needle in me. It's not even going to do anything anyways, unless you wanted to show off your nurse uniform to me." he glared at her, not mentioning that she actually looked very cute in her nurse uniform.

"Actually, the needle has a fluid that will flush the blood from your system. I know it's just a Gigai, but I don't want you going around and stealing people's bodies. And by the way, you probably totally enjoy seeing me in the uniform," she joked.

"Oh please, I'd rather see you out of those clothes." he shot back. Then realizing what the words sounded like to her, his face flushed a crimson red. He started sputtering excuses until Karin started laughing dryly.

"Okay then, I'll check up on you later." she turned, and quickly walked out of the room. Toshiro called after her, but she either ignored him or didn't hear. What was that all about? he wondered to himself.

As Karin made her way to her bedroom, she thought about the impossibility of ever being able to go out with Toshiro. As she sighed in defeat, she heard the doorbell ringing. Who would come here this late? As she opened the door, she was greeted with a large, airway-closing hug from Rangiku Matsumoto.

"Karin chan! It's so nice to see you again! To celebrate, I bought you and Yuzu chan some outfits for a party Captain and I are taking you to!"

"What party would you be speaking of, Matsumoto?" asked a dangerously low voice from behind the couch.

"Oh! Captain! I got clothes for you too, but Karin chan is going first, so be patient!" she scolded him.

"I don't even want to dress up!" exclaimed the two victims of matsumoto's drunken state. But before they could do anything, Karin was dragged off to her room, where Toshiro heard screaming and ripping cloth. Matsumoto's so lucky... she gets to rip Karin's clothes off but I can only dream about doing that to her. For once, he didn't scold himself for thinking in such a manner.

Okay, i'm sorry it's not good at all, but i had to re-type it three times for fanfiction to actually save it.
