Chapter 6: Chibi's Home

Ichigo stood there with a smile on his face as he was hugged tightly by his mother. She wasn't letting him go anytime soon so he hugged her back in kind. When he felt tears on his shoulder, that was when he decided to speak up.

"Mom? What's wrong?" He asked her with a little concern in his voice.

Masaki lifted her head off of him and looked deep into his now orange and red eyes and a tear formed in hers. She lowered her head down as she realized that her baby boy had been a hollow this entire time. Ichigo used both of his hands and lifted her head up. When she saw his smiling face, her worries were pushed into the back of her mind.

"I'm so glad you're alright my beautiful boy." Masaki said to him with a smile of her own. She looked around to the others and saw that they were staring at the window. "What are all of you looking at?" Despite being with her son after five years of assuming he was dead and being truly happy, she was still cautious of the other hollows here.

"There's some guy with some kind of spirit energy outside right now." Halibel started as she stood up with the towel wrapped around her.

Thomas was too scared to move at this point. He was easily outmatched and clearly outclassed when it came to these people. He saw the tanned skinned woman stand and then just disappear out of sight. He looked around before deciding to just leave. The moment he turned around, he was face first in the woman's large cleavage. He looked up at her with a completely red face and saw that she was in no mood to be groped on any level right now.

"Who or what are you boy?" She asked with some venom in her voice.

"I-I-I'm Thomas Rancher." Thomas said to her while trying to focus on her eyes and not her breast that seemed to nearly pop out of the towel.

"Well whatever the reason you're here Thomas and whoever you work with," Halibel started as she leaned down to him. When she was face to face with him she continued. "Do yourself a favor, don't get involved with us. Understood?"

Thomas quickly shook his head and she motioned her head to tell him to leave. He did so and left with the same technique he used to get there. Halibel looked on in surprise to what he did and knew he wasn't soul reaper or hollow, but something else entirely.

Back in the house, Yuzu and Karin were talking with their older brother. It was strange at first to see him after so many years, but they just had this feeling that this was still their older brother, no matter what he was now.

"So Ichigo," Karin started as she nudged his shoulder. "Who exactly are all of these people in our house right now?" She motioned to the others as Halibel walked back inside and sat back down on the couch.

"Oh they're my friends." Ichigo said as he started to point at them individually. "That's Neliel, Halibel, Apache, Mila Rose, Sun Sun," He pointed to Wonderweiss and Hooleer who were now standing together behind the couch looking at the TV. "And those two are Wonderweiss and Hooleer."

"You made a lot of new friends I see." Masaki started. She did feel very uncomfortable with all of the women being completely naked though and decided to address the situation. "Is there a reason all of you are naked right now?"

"Well when we transformed, we kinda just came out this way." Neliel said with a smile.

"Right." Masaki started as she looked at Yuzu. "Yuzu, we're going to need to head to the mall to get them some clothes in the morning." Yuzu nodded. "But before we do that, we need to see Kisuke and get all of you some proper Gigai's."

"What's a Gigai?" Mila Rose asked her.

"It's a fake body that you can go into to completely mask your spirit energy while at the same time making look like an average human to everyone else." Yuzu explained with a smile of her own. The five were impressed by this and decided to go with it.

Masaki looked over to Karin Next. "Karin, I'm gonna need you to go back to the soul society and tell your father of everything here. But make sure no one else hears you when you tell him. Okay?" Karin nodded to her and Masaki looked at the five along with her son and the other two. "We're going to have to keep a very low profile since the soul society is on edge after what happened today, so all of you are going to have to lower your spirit energies."

They nodded to her and proceeded to suppress their energies. They left the house and made their way over to the shop where Kisuke was sitting outside of looking up to the sky. He was fanning himself and staring at the moon with his usual smile on his face.

"Lets go, but try not to spark his curiosity, okay?" Masaki said as they walked up to him.

Kisuke looked over and saw Masaki and her daughters walking to him, and they were trailed by eight mask-less hollows. He stopped fanning and stared at them with a hint of curiosity but mostly caution.

"Masaki?" Kisuke questioned when they stopped in front of him. He stood up and continued. "Mind telling me why eight hollows are right behind you."

"Kisuke," Masaki started while bringing Ichigo in front of her. Kisuke went wide eyed as he recognized the small boys face instantly. "I need you to make several Gigai for Ichigo and his friends." She said with a warm smile.

Kisuke looked at her then back to Ichigo then at the other hollows then back to Masaki, who had a very dark like aura to her smile. He sighed as he knew he didn't have much say in the matter at hand. He motioned them to come inside and sat them down in a large guest room. He went into his lab and started to make the Gigai for them.

While he was doing that, Ichigo was catching up with his family. They were discussing how things changed when he died and how they vowed to avenge him. Now that he was hear with them, there was no reason to do so. Ichigo talked about how he met his friends and how strong he was now. It didn't come as a shock seeing as though he was a Vasto Lorde when he arrived in Hueco Mundo. The others even talked to an extent. It was mainly Neliel and Wonderweiss who spoke while the others would talk only when they were talked to.

After about an hour and a half, Kisuke finally came back and looked visibly exhausted. "Okay." He started. "I got them all ready for ya'll and even took the liberty of fitting them to hold your hollow energies inside them. I also gave them some clothes just so they don't have to walk around naked." He of course was talking about the five and Hooleer.

They followed him to the back and got into their respective Gigai's. They looked virtually the same minus their mask fragments, but Hooleer looked vastly different. She was was now a light skinned girl with dark blond hair almost similar to Wonderweiss. She had green eyes and a pretty petite body to say the least. Neliel, Halibel and Mila Rose were in some of Yoruichi's clothes that hugged their bodies tightly, while Apache, Sun Sun and Hooleer were some old clothes that Kisuke had lying around that managed to fit on them perfectly. Ichigo and Wonderweiss were dressed in a copy of the clothes they wore beforehand, so not many changes were made to them.

"Okay, I'll also need you to send Karin over to the soul society to tell Isshin about what's going on right here." Masaki said to him.

"I'm afraid I can't do that tonight." Kisuke started, getting everyone's attention. "It needs time to recalibrate since now I can openly go back there at any time. It's going to try and make it to where it can send someone inside the Seireitei instead of outside of it, and it could take the rest of the night."

"So does that mean I can't see dad yet?" Ichigo asked the man in the weird hat.

"Fraid so Ichigo." He said to the boy. "I would suggest that Ichigo stay out of sight to everyone else. If they see him alive and still the same as when he died, it'll bring up some very unanswerable questions."

"What about everyone else Mr. Urahara?" Karin asked him with her arms crossed.

"Well all of you have some space." He started as he looked at the others. They stood pretty close to Ichigo. "And I get the feeling that all of you want to stay with Ichigo, am I right?"

"Well obviously." Apache said.

"We are his friends after all." Mila Rose finished.

"Well that settles that then." Kisuke said.

The group left the shop and headed back home. The entire time they walked, Masaki kept a firm grasp of Ichigo's hand. He in turn held hers gently just like he did all those years ago. She looked down to him and smiled at him and realized something, she had gotten her son back, and this time, no one was taking him away from her.
