Ichigo let Vacanze's words roll around in his mind before answering, "Who you were before death starts clashing with who you are now. It's like your soul is trying to purify itself from the corruption of when you became a hollow." Vacanze nodded. "Then... what happens if all of your regrets are settled through Kita?"
Vacanze shook his head. "I do not know. I don't think anyone does."
Ichigo thought of one answer but he didn't know how Vacanze would react, so he kept it to himself. It was just a theory anyway. He sighed and looked at Vacanze as he tried the soda one more time, then quickly made a face and pushed it away again. He was still bare chested, wearing only a towel. He finished his own soda and stood up.
"I think your gigai is in Kisuke's lab. He left it unlocked so you could get it. Put it on and we can head out and get you some clothes." Vacanze stood up and nodded. "By the way, remind me of your name?"
"Byleistr. Byleistr Vacanze."
Ichigo nodded and grinned. "Ichigo Kurosaki. I'll meet you at the front of the shop." He walked off, leaving Vacanze to go and get ready. |

Vacanze went back into the bathroom and changed into his espada uniform, for lack of anything else to wear. After dressing, he went into Kisuke's lab and walked in, seeing a figure in the corner with red hair, wearing a red t-shirt with white edges, black jeans, black and white boots and a metal necklace. When he turned the light on, he saw clearly that it was himself. However, there was no mask and no estigma on the sides of his face. He looked... human.
He walked over to it. It stood against the corner, its eyes closed, head down. His hair was the exact same color and style, brushed back with small parts in his face. He shook the creep factor off and reached out and touched it. He phased through the doll like contraption, then suddenly, he was looking behind him, as if he had turned around suddenly. He blinked, brushed the dust off of himself and stretched.
"Soul Reapers... I don't think I'll ever understand them."
He made his way back out to the front of the shop to meet Ichigo, thinking of how ironic it was that a month ago he was still an espada, and now he was apparently making friends with one of Aizen's worst enemies.
He laughed as he walked to the front of the shop.

"Fox Hunt":
Yoruichi stood near the kitchen, watching Kenji help Tessai with dinner. He smiled as Tessai taught him to carefully chop the greens, making sure to keep his tiny fingers away from the sharp knife. Suddenly she saw Kisuke coming from the backrooms out of the corner of her eye. She turned to see him holding his shoulder which was covered in blood. She quickly walked up to him and took his hand off of it.
"What happened?" She said as she peeled back the layers of his clothing so she could get to the wound. She began healing it with Kido. |

"Ichimaru is what happened. He snapped. I wondered how long it would take." He grunted as Yoruichi healed the deep wound. "His eyes." Kisuke reached for his hat and removed it. "We have to find him, Yoruichi. If we don't that idiot is going to turn back to the dark side, and Kita and Sojiro will have lost him. I won't let that bastard out of this that easy." His hand clenched, jaw tight.
"I won't let him do to Kita what he did to Rangiku. It's time that fox stops running every time he gets scared."

Yoruichi nodded as she finished healing. Her hands rested on his chest. "What happened? What made him snap?" She looked up at him with worried eyes.

Kisuke shook his head. "I will explain while we are looking for him." Kisuke worked the rest of the tenderness out of his shoulder and walked toward the kitchen. Tessai and Kenji were still working away on dinner.
"Kenji."
His son turned and looked at his father as he jumped down from his stool and ran toward him.
"Yes daddy?" Kenji said as Kisuke scooped him up in his arms.
"Me and mama have somewhere we need to go." He looked at Tessai. "Can you keep an eyes on him?" Tessai nodded as Kisuke looked back to Kenji. "Nee-chan is in her room sleeping. Can you check on her every once in awhile and make sure she is alright?"
Kenji nodded as Kisuke put him down and he ran back over to help Tessai.
"I can't say how long we will be. We are going to look for the fox. I have a few places I think he may have ran off to, but nowadays who know with him."
Tessai nodded again, "I will keep an eye on everything, Boss. Don't worry."
Kisuke nodded with a smile as he turned and walked back over to Yoruichi. "You ready to go a get this over with?"

Yoruichi nodded. "The sooner we find him the better, before he can do anything else stupid. Where do we look first?"

"A few of his haunts around here." Kisuke turned and walked toward the door. "When and if we don't find him here we will cover Las Noches, but I think we might get lucky and find him here."
Yoruichi nodded and followed Kisuke out of the shop the two took off in a flash of shunpo.Moved

"Slips of Paper": (continued) Ichigo burst into the shop and ran down the hall into the living area behind the shop. "Kisuke, you have some explaining to do," he called out loudly. "There was-"
He stopped as said shopkeeper emerged from his lab with a cup of coffee. "What is it, Ichigo?"
Ichigo shoved the piece of paper in his face. "Care to explain why an espada is leaving strange messages on Inuoe's doorstep and you have me looking for them?" he growled.

Kisuke sighed as his hand slid under his hat scratching his head. "Another one, huh?" He walked over to the table and set his coffee cup down then reached into his haori sleeve and pulled out a second piece of paper.
"I found this one on the shop floor a while back."
He laid it out on the table taking the other one from Ichigo. "Wait here. I will be right back."
Kisuke turned and walked back into his lab then returned with a small stack of papers in his hand. He sat to the table and thumbed through them as he sipped on his coffee.

Ichigo tapped his fingers along the table, waiting impatiently for an explanation. And if Kisuke didn't stop reading and started answering soon, he might find a way to get away with punching him. This concerned Inoue, didn't it?
"Kisuke...." he muttered, ignoring the soda Tessai brought him.

"Hm..." Kisuke hummed not taking his eyes from one of the sheets of paper he was looking at. He lifted the new note, then looked back to the sheet of paper.
"I want some answers," the boy muttered. "And soon or I am going to do something drastic to get them."
Kisuke still did not look to the boy as he decoded the note. "Mhm..." he hummed picking up a pencil on the table, writing down a couple of letters on the note.
Ichigo frowned and then grabbed his soda. "Last chance, Kisuke," he warned, looking to the hat sitting on his head.
Kisuke nodded, "ok..." his mind was still on the note as he jotted down a couple more letters.

Ichigo glared. “Alright then,” he said, swapping the hat and popping the lid of the soda. He poured some on Kisuke’s head, making him pause in his work. Ichigo grinned in savage delight and tipped the infamous hat upside down, tipping the soda over just barely. “Keep being quiet and the hat gets the next bath,” he stated evenly.

Kisuke looked slowly up from the note as soda dripped from his hair. He snatched his hat back and stood from the table. He looked to Ichigo with sharp narrowed eyes.
"I can't tell you shit until I get this decoded."
He turned and walked toward the bathroom. "You will get your answers when I get mine."
He walked in the bathroom closing the door behind him.

Ichigo frowned and leaned back against the wall as he sat at the table. "You could have at least told me it was coded, crazy old man," he muttered, closing his eyes to contain his impatience. "Come on, Kisuke. You already know something. Share with the class. You will still look cool and smart."
He waited for a moments like that and then glanced down at the papers on the table. "Oh hell!"
He tugged the papers over and looked at the mess of notes. Not making any sense of them, he turned to the paper Kisuke had been writing on. His eyes widened. "By blood. What - what does that mean?" Grabbing the paper, he stomped over to the bathroom and banged his fist against the door. "Get out here and finish your job, Kisuke," he shouted.
"Get out here or I'll -" a hand settled on his shoulder, making him turn around and lower his voice. "Oh, hi, Captain Ukitake, I-" he rubbed the back of his head. "I was just bugging the crazy hat man," he murmured.
