Chapter ten: Ichigo wakes a day later

Kaien Shiba's POV~

I went to sit by Ichigo's bed. "He looks so peaceful asleep huh Hanataro?" I asked him after Captain Kuchiki left. He nodded. "Yes Lieutenant Shiba." He answered softly. I nodded and wiped Ichigo's head with a wet washcloth. "He will be the youngest Shiba sibling." he chuckled as he told Hanataro that Kukaku, him, Miyako and Ganju adopted their lil cousin as their baby brother.

Hanataro smiled at me. "Lieutenant I think he will be a wonderful brother, I can sense it." He said. I smiled. "Thank you Hanataro." I said with a chuckle.

Reader's POV~

Karakura town~

Byakuya exited the senkaimon and sensed for Isshin's house. "Northeast." He murmured. He flash stepped to the clinic. Isshin was sitting at his desk and doing paperwork. Byakuya knocked on his window. Isshin looked at him. "Kuchiki san..." He remembered him as the Fukutaichou of squad six. "Became a captain now have you?" He asked as he let Byakuya in. He chuckled and nodded. "Yes I did, a few years back." He smiled a little.

Isshin smiled and offered a seat. "I miss soul society but I know I made a good choice even if it meant being exiled." He said. Byakuya looked around. "Looks like you have done good." He said.

Isshin nodded. "Yes I did try my best. But sadly when it came to saving Ichigo.." He softened almost crying. Byakuya nodded as he knew what Isshin meant. " I am sorry he died. Only a infant in our terms of life." He shook his head. Isshin choked a sob back. "My wife had to take the kids to school now. I am seeing a therapist because of the death of my son." He blew his nose.

Byakuya handed another tissue box. "I see. I know it is hard losing someone. I lost both my parents. It was not easy." He said in a soft voice. Isshin nodded. "Thank you Byakuya." He said as he blew his nose one last time. Byakuya and Isshin talked for a while. "Isshin I need to know some things about Ichigo." Byakuya said with some guilt.

Isshin Kurosaki's (Shiba) ~POV~

I saw guilt on Byakuya's face. "It is fine, He was very energentic and smart." He went on with details. Byakuya smiled at Isshin a bit. " He was found in the Rukon, In Inuzuri." Byakuya informed. My eyes widened. "Inuzuri is the third worst off district in the rukongai." I exclaimed. Byakuya nodded to me. Byakuya also said what happened. I listened and nodded. "He is a protector, he will protect anyone pretty much." I confirmed.

He nodded and asked more if he could he said and I nodded and told him more. "He loves strawberries." I added too. "Is there anything I can take for Ichigo? Kaien and the Shiba's would like to know." He asked.
