I do not own Bleach.

We wanted to have a little fun and do a short Christmas chapter of a Christmas for Hinata. It does not follow the time line. It takes place when she is about physically seven.

Extra Chapter: Christmas

Hinata gave Ulquiorra a hug and a kiss on the cheek. "I'll be back later!" She soon found herself skipping through the garganta. She was excited; both Ichigo and Uncle Kisuke had told her that she had to visit today, telling her it was a surprise. She decided that first she would visit Uncle Kisuke, then Ichigo.

When she landed in the world of the living, she looked around to get her bearings before skipping off towards his shop. She was about half way there when she stopped. Over on the fence, there was a black cat that was watching her. Smiling, she went over and petted it. With a deep rumbling purr, it arched its back into her palm. She picked it up carefully, placing it in her arms before heading off once again.

She couldn't wait to show Uncle Kisuke what she had found!

"Uncle Kisuke! Uncle Tessai!" She was surprised when she entered to see that the room was lit up with bright lights, and there was even a tree in the corner with boxes under it. She saw movement as Uncle Kisuke rounded the corner. She flew towards him giving him a one armed hug with the black cat smashed between them. "Uncle Kisuke! You will never believe what I found!"

He smiled down at her, and chuckled at the cat who was trying not to be smashed. "What did you find, my dear?" he said with a mischievous glint in his eyes.

"I found a person in a cat's body!"

His eyes widened fractionally; he leaned down as if to look at the cat closer who seemed to have wide eyes. "Why, whatever do you mean?"

"I found her on the way here. It's weird because the cat has a male body, but the spirit is female and is human just like you Uncle Kisuke!" She held the cat out for him to see it better.

He shook his head. He needed to stop being so surprised. "You better come out Yoruichi, my dear." He gave another chuckle as the cat transformed into a beautiful women with purple hair.

At that moment, Tessai came charging into the room, grabbing Hinata and covering her eyes while throwing some clothes to Yoruichi. "Not in front of Hinata." He gave them both a look.

"Ah, but Tessai, she is so cute." Yoruichi said while giving a purr. She quietly pulled on her clothes.

"What's happening, Uncle Tessai?" Hinata piped up when she found she couldn't take his hand off her eyes.

"Nothing, Hinata. Aunt Yoruichi is just putting some clothes on. Make sure you never let anyone see your naked body Hinata; it's not decent." Tessai said.

Yoruichi rolled her eyes. Kisuke looked like he was about to say something he shouldn't when Tessai shot him a look that that made Kisuke close his mouth, blushing with embarrassment. When Tessai finally uncovered Hinata's eyes, she looked around until she saw Yoruichi, then ran to her and gave her a hug.

"Aunt Kitty!"

"Aunt what?" Yoruichi said.

When Kisuke started laughing, she threw something at him, causing him to give a yelp of pain. Hinata turned to look at him, confused. He was holding his head and sent a glare towards Yoruichi. "I'm alright, my dear, don't worry about me."

Hinata looked back at Yoruichi when she gave her a hug back. "Now, what did you call me?" Youruichi asked again.

Hinata looked up at the older women, confused. "Aunt Kitty?"

There was some more muffled laughing that was quickly silenced by a yelp. "My name isn't Aunt Kitty, its Yoruichi."

"But you are my aunt," Hinata stated.

Yoruichi sent a look at Tessai, who wasn't looking at her. "I'm not your Aunt."

"Tessai said you were."

Yoruichi sent a glare at Tessai, who shivered but wouldn't look at her. "I'm not related to your uncles."

"But your spiritual pressure feels like theirs, and just like Ichigo's dad's." Hinata said tilting her head.

"Ah. . ." she looked to Kiskue who shook his head, telling her not to tell Hinata that they were Shinigami. Yoruichi sighed. "I'm not your Aunt; I'm your cousin."

Hinata was already shaking her head. "Ichigo said cousins are people your own age. You're too old to be my cousin."

Kisuke was once again silenced by a flying object.

"Okay, I'm not a kitty." Yoruichi could feel her cool slipping.

Hinata smiled up at her. "Of course you are!"

With Hinata's big brown eyes looking up at her, Yoruichi gave in with a sigh. "I can't convince you otherwise, can I?"

With that, Hinata jumped up hugging Yoruichi around the neck. "Thank you so much, Aunt Kitty!"

Yoruichi hugged her back with a smile, but felt a vein trying to pop on top of her head when she heard Kisuke's hidden laughter. Gently, she put Hinata on the ground. "I'll be right back sweetheart."

Half an hour later, both Yoruichi and Kisuke came back. Yoruichi looked bright and happy; Kiskue looked like he had been through battle.

Hinata ran up to him. "Are you okay, Uncle Kisuke?"

With a look from Yoruichi he replied, "I'm fine; I just had a talk with Aunt Kit. . ." he was stopped by a flying table to the face.

Hinata gave a slight scream, before he sat up with a slightly dazed look. "Just fine, my dear, just fine," he mumbled before he laid back down on the ground.

Tessai gave a small cough, drawing there attention. "Well how about we open some presents."

"Why are we opening presents, Uncle Tessai? It's not my birthday. Is it your birthday?"

"No," Tessai chuckled. "Why, my dear, today is Christmas! A time of year for families to be together and celebrate!"

With that, they dove into the presents that were under the tree. Once all of the presents where unwrapped, Hinata looked down at her little pile. Uncle Kisuke had given her a large pile of candy; Uncle Tessai gave her a small apron; Aunt Kitty gave her some gloves that she had told her would grow with her and were good to fight in. She made sure to give each of them a big hug and thank them before saying she had to leave to go and see Ichigo.

. . .

It didn't take her long to get to Ichigo's, but she wasn't sure how to meet him. She looked in the window and saw a similar tree in the living room to Uncle Kisuke's. There was also paper all over the floor and the two sisters where playing with different games. A man's back was seen as he was picking up the paper, but no Ichigo. Maybe he was in his room.

Hinata got a mischievous smile on her face as she looked up at the window on the second floor. Placing her presents on the ground and picking out a candy for her brother, she prepared to meet Ichigo. With a running start, she was able to jump all the way to his window, landing on the sill. She saw him at his desk with some paper. She gave a knock on the window, which scared Ichigo. She giggled as he looked wide eyed at her. He quickly opened the window and pulled her in.

"Don't scare me like that, Hinata!" He accused her.

She just smiled back at him. "Happy Christmas, Ichigo!" She sang happily.

He looked taken aback. "How did you know it was Christmas?"

"Uncle Tessai told me!" She stated in a matter of fact voice. "Can we play?"

He gave her a smile. "Sorry, I can't today. My family and I are going to go caroling to the old folks soon, but I have a gift for you!" He ran to his desk and pulled out the object that he had been taping paper to. He handed it to her and watched with excitement as she opened it. It was a small pail and shovel, the kind you use to build sand castles. "You told me awhile back that there is a lot of sand where you live, so I thought you might like to build a sand castle like we did last week, but with your other brother."

Hinata jumped to her feet and crushed Ichigo in a hug. "Thank you so much!" she cried.

After giving him her gift, she had to leave because Ichigo's Dad called from downstairs saying that they were leaving soon. With one final hug and a promise to come visit again, she went back to Hueco Mundo.

. . .

Ulquiorra was waiting for her when she got back. He was surprised to see her holding a bright green bucket full of water, which she was carefully carrying. After setting it down carefully, she ran to Ulquiorra, giving him a big hug. "Merry Christmas, Ulqui!"

He was puzzled by this. "Christmas?"

"Yep! It's a time when I get to spend the day with my family, so I came back so we can play!" She showed him all the gifts she had been given and even gave him some of her candy. When she showed him the bucket again, he asked about the water and she explained that it was to build a castle.

So sitting together on the sand, Hinata taught Ulquiorra how to build a sand castle. As they were building, Hinata found that her spiritual energy worked better than the water to hold the sand in place. They built the castle until it was way over Ulquiorra's head and it almost seemed to be a real house. Hinata was so tired that she fell asleep right there on the sand in front of her Christmas castle.

Ulquiorra gave smiled as he picked her up, and carried her home.
