Sumi looked from Gin slowly, "there was nothing deep about that. He used that poor woman then killed her after she gave birth to his daughter." Her eyes stopped on Kisuke as she sighed. "I myself can't help you here either. I have only lived for four centuries. You and Aizen are more than--"

Kisuke's hand went up quickly cutting her off as he hid under his hat, "ah ch ch ch. That will be fine Goddess." He looked from under his hat at her. "Can you find out for me?"

As Sumi nodded, Ichigo snickered. "You're over four centuries old, Kisuke?!" he asked, disbelieving. "Damn, talk about not looking your age... wait, how old does that make my old man?" He blinked, suddenly not too sure of himself.

Kisuke laughed adjusting his hat. "Don't worry about it Ichigo. Just know you'll look young for a long time." His attention went back to Sumi.
"The sooner you can get that to me would be great," he paused nodding slightly, "and thank you for your help, Sumi."

"I will do my best to find out what you need to know, Urahara." She started to fade from their sight as her last words hung in the room like a bad smell.
"I just hope you do not regret the information I return with."

Gin frowned. "I wonder what she meant by that little ominous tidbit," he muttered, folding his arms. He stayed like that for a few minutes and then turned around, waving over his shoulder. "I am going to borrow the basement. Come at your own peril~"

"Yeah," Ichigo grunted, getting to his feet as well, "I will keep that in mind and casually say 'no thank you, snake'," he murmured, rubbing the back of his neck. "I suppose you want me to keep looking for more of these coded messages." As Kisuke nodded, he sighed. "Well, if they get us closer to killing that man, I won't complain." He tossed the towel in his face and waved. "See you around, Kisuke. Come find me when it is time to move."
Saying his goodbyes to Tessai, the kids, and the Captain, he also left the room.

Juushiro chuckled and sipped his tea, looking to his friend. "There's no rushing the goddess. Since Ichimaru is stable again and you are waiting for information on that, do you want to join me in a visit to Soul Society?" he asked. "While we were dealing with chaos down here, Shunsui organized his battle strategy."

Kisuke nodded as he sipped from his cup. "Sounds good. I would like to talk to a few people there about this new information I have collected here as well." He set his cup to the table and picked up all his paperwork including the two notes they received.
He then stood from the table walking toward his lab. "When you're ready, Juushiro come get me in my lab. I have a few things I want to work on before we go."
Juushiro nodded to Kisuke as he walked from the room. Opening the door to his lab, a heavy sigh escaped him as he rubbed the back of his neck. "Hang in there, Kita. we are getting closer to the end than we think." --END RP-- "Primera Espada":

"Solemn Return Home": (continued) Juushiro sat at the table, finishing his medicinal tea as Kenji returned, with his father, Gin, and Kita behind him. Juushiro smiled and rose. "I'm glad to see you safely back, Kita." He turned to Ichimaru, paused, and then chuckled. "And I am glad someone never gave up on you, Ichimaru." Gin scratched the back of his head. "The way I remember it you were just as stubborn as these two, or you wouldn't have taken me into your division." He looked to the side. "That was a ... nice thing to do."
Juushiro laughed lightly as Kenji's mouth dropped open and Kisuke easily tipped the shocked kid towards the floor. Catching the kid with one arm, he looked back to Ichimaru. "I did what I could. I think Kita and Kisuke deserve most of the credit." He looked over to Kisuke. "Then again, should we give you any credit, old friend? It could go to your head."

Kisuke adjusted his hat and grinned as he sat down at the table and poured himself a tea. "Sit," he told them as Tessai walked out with food placing it on the table. Kita's stomach growled again as she covered her stomach with her hand and blushed slightly. Sitting at the table Kita made herself comfortable as Gin went to sit next to her, quickly getting pushed down a spot as Kenji squeezed between Gin and Kita and sat down next to Kita.
Kisuke only chuckled as Gin reached down, picking Kenji up by the back of his shirt again, and sat him down on the other side of him, between him and his father. Gin sat down before he let Kenji go.
Kenji huffed crossing his arms over his chest as he plopped down on the floor between his father and Gin. "Meanie." He grumbled at Gin.
Kisuke chuckled again patting Kenji on top of the head and looked to Juushiro. "Kita wanted to talk to you Juushiro. Think you might be up to it. It's-- it's about Yumiko."

Juushiro sighed and took a seat, smiling again when Kenji turned to him. The boy wasn’t convinced and folded his arms in a huff. “Did you take your medicine, Take-jii?”
Kisuke laughed and ruffled his kid’s head. Juushiro chuckled and offered him the empty cup.
Kenji looked at him closely and then back up at his dad. “Daddy, you need make better meicine so he not sighin'.”
This time everyone was laughing at the table, even Kenji when his father started to tickle him.
As Tessai set the table with the food, Juushiro looked to Kita. “I am up to it,” he said seriously, “but even if I wasn’t, I would want to know.”
Kita nodded and they started to eat, entertained by Kenji as he took charge of how much both ‘Nee-chan’ and ‘Take-jii’ ate.

After taking a few bites to stop her stomach from growling she looked to Juushiro her eyes sad as she thought of her friend and the distress she saw in her eyes. She sighed heavily and spoke as she looked up from her plate.
"What about Yumiko would cause her to need a resolve?"

Juushiro sighed deeply and looked down at his tea. He closed his eyes. “Kisuke, it might be best for your son to leave the room.”
Kisuke nodded and gave Kenji to Yoruichi, kissing his forehead. Kenji looked at Take-jii, and Kisuke patted his head. “You can play and make him laugh later, okay?” The boy nodded, scrambled down from his mother’s arms, and ran to Kita and then threw his arms around Juushiro.
Juushiro chuckled and hugged the kid close. “I will read to you later, alright?”
“Promise?”
He nodded.
Kenji turned to Kita. “You comin' too, right?”
Kita smiled. “Of course, Kenji.”
“Den I wait.” He trotted back to his mom. “All night if have to.”
Juushiro smiled as the child left the room with Tessai and Yoruichi to finish dinner in another room and then faced the table again.
“Unless things have changed, Yumiko still has little of her memories of her imprisonment, mainly that which could have…. and may at this point…. scar her. I haven’t … spoken to her enough to know either way.”
He looked down into his lap. “You know she was locked away and sealed. What you don’t know about are the nightmares she had at first when Mizue was sealed to the point she couldn’t feel anything. That changed. And the nightmares when her parents visited for the last time, saying they were disappointed and that she was no longer fit to be the heir. They did not disown her but they abandoned her.”

Kita looked to her plate as tears formed in her eyes, her hands wringing her napkin in her lap. "She never told me any of that. I knew she was a noble, but only through word of mouth. She never really came right out and said it." She looked up at Juushiro quickly. "Was she imprisoned for a long time..." She swallowed hard shaking her head. "Of course she was. That was a stupid question. No wonder she was such easy pray for Aizen."
Her tears spilled down her cheeks. "And now... Vale." She choked out as she cast her eyes down again.
She closed her eyes, I should have brought her back. I should not have listened to Sumi. Her hands came up quickly hitting the underside of the table causing a few things to spill and the dishes clatter, a small gash opened up on her wrist where the edge of the table caught her as her hands went to her head.
"I should have brought her back! You were wrong to make me leave her there!" Kita screamed out.
