Chapter 11: Destination Karakura Town

Racing through the air towards home Mitch felt someone idle up beside him, spinning around he noticed Hanza running next to him. "What's up?" he yelled above the roar of the raging wind that assaulted them "I've been told that I should accompany you on your journey for protection in case the White Lotus decide to attack you again".

"Since when did you think I need any help?" Mitch said flashing his usual cocky smile as Hanza smirked as best as one could with a mask over their face and called back "It never hurts to have a little bit of back up, now just try and catch me" with that Mitch raced off after the ninja as they darted across the sky like little children playing tag.

Ripping the door open to his house Tom ran into his room his mind racing a mile a minute "What exactly do you take to another world and what can I carry in this form". Eventually he decided on nothing and upon meeting his other self outside the house laid down the ground rules on how to act as to not arouse suspicion throughout the school and for his family. Taking one look back at his house which he wouldn't see for however long this adventure took he raced off to the meeting spot.

Meanwhile back at her house Ania ran into her room grabbing a backpack and slinging it over her shoulder. As she walked out of the room though she suddenly thought that no one could see her but they would see the bag so it probably was a bad idea and decided on taking nothing. "I'm sure Mitch will be able to provide us with clothing if we do wear anything else besides this uniform" just as she was leaving Ania made sure to instruct her mod soul on how to act as she didn't want to end up in the same situation as Mitch having to change her personality to not look crazy when she resumed her regular life at school.

The last thing she said to her mod soul before rushing off was "Make sure that Mitch's mod soul doesn't try and hit on you so much and if he does whack him over the head it worked for the real one at least" and with that she darted off into the distance to arrive at the meeting point.

Mitch on the other hand was calm and collected as he casually walked through the front door grabbing a glass of scotch and taking a quick swig before walking outside again to see his mod soul just arrive. "Considering you've already made a name for yourself as a philanderer during the times I've been gone just keep being yourself I guess" "Perhaps I shall get to know the mod soul Ania personally". "I'd advise against that she probably warned hers to whack you over the head if you try anything" "That is a risk I'm willing to take" "Christ I wish you'd been given no personality". "

"Alright so everyone's here" Mitch said just as Tom, Ania and Hanza arrived at the same time "I've already calculated the distance and how fast we should be travelling to arrive within the required time". "I'm impressed usually you're pretty dumb at mathematics" Ania said while Mitch just laughed "As you said I'm smarter than I give myself credit for".

"Did you consider that we're not quite as fast with movement as you are?" Ania raised an eyebrow as Mitch shook his head "Of course what do you take me for? I calculated for what you two should be able to handle though you may have to push yourself a bit". "I'm up for the challenge!" Tom smiled eager to test the limits of his skill as he went racing off ahead.

For three days they trekked forward using flash step and resting every so often so that Ania and Tom could rest up and gain their stamina back. Finally on the fourth day they made it to Japan and arrived at a rundown store in a town called Karakura located in Western Tokyo. "We managed to make it and on perfect time thanks to my scheduling" Mitch boasted as he happily strode towards the front of the shop and knocked on the door.

"Ah Mitch you've arrived and right on time as you said" an incredibly large and built man bent down to the entrance staring down at Mitch through a pair of sunglasses. "Good to see you Tessai it's been far too long; where is Urahara I was expecting him to meet us here?" "As usual he's off doing other things but I shall go inform him that you've arrived". As the door slammed shut and the large man disappeared Mitch took a seat on the porch waiting for Urahara to arrive. "He always appears randomly and is late to anything" Mitch sighed as he placed his head into his hands hoping the wait wasn't to long.

"MITCH YOU'RE HERE" a thrilled voice roared from behind the door as it was torn and open and Mitch was hurled off his feet into the embrace of a tall slender tanned woman. "I haven't seen you in ages how you been" she said thrashing Mitch about in her arms as he managed to haul himself free from her grasp.

"Woah calm down there Yoruichi it has been awhile but still that greeting was a bit over dramatic don't you think?" Mitch said as he shook himself down while Yoruichi burst into laughter. "Oh come now no greeting is over dramatic and besides why shouldn't I greet you like that after all we've been through and done so much, remember the time you first saw me out of my cat form that was a classic I never get tired of seeing people's reactions" she said falling to the floor laughing while Mitch for the first time in his life was embarrassed by a woman.

"Oh you managed to make it Mitch" a calm collected voice said as a man emerged from the house wearing a green and white striped hat that covered his eyes while blonde shaggy hair hung down. He wore a green bath robe almost and was wearing a pair of wooden sandals with a walking cane. "Kisuke it's good to see you" Mitch said as they embraced in a friendly hug while Yoruichi growled slightly "Oh what he gets a hug but for me it's a push away!" Mitch laughed nervously as Urahara looked away from Mitch and saw the other three from his group standing there as he walked over to greet them.

"Ah Hanza it's been awhile, good to see you again" he said as they exchanged a quick hand shake and he moved onto Tom who greeted himself then bowed and shook Urahara's hand. Upon seeing Ania though Urahara jumped back slightly shocked to see a woman "My, my Mitch you didn't tell me such a beautiful woman was coming to stay at my humble bodings, why I must clean up the place as one with such beauty should only stay in a place to match your good looks" with that Urahara quickly spun around and raced back inside before slamming the door shut. Ania just stood there bewildered at what just happened while Mitch and Yoruichi both burst into laughter from the typical outburst Kisuke has at seeing attractive women.
