"That doesn't sound good...but now the question is, who sent them?" Ichigo asked. He knew that he pissed off several people in the past: Aizen, Bount, various Shinigami...the point is that the list was long.

" Could be anyone really. Whoever it is knows how to control Hollows. Though I still have the feeling Aizen is involved somehow, though not directly. " Tetsu said as they arrived at his and Hoshi's house. He excused himself saying he would be right back to open the front door. He went inside getting into his Gigai and opened the door. He still hoped he was wrong about Aizen.

Hoshi let the others go in first , and then got back into her body. She still hoped it wasn't Aizen, knowing he would want her Seer powers again.

Ichigo let Tatsuki go in first, before he went in. Ishida followed them both inside. Once everyone was inside, both Tatsuki and Ichigo went back to their respective bodies and synchronized with them again before Ichigo had a thought. He just hoped that Nel, the Arrancar that helped him storm Hueco Mundo, was alright.

" Can I get anyone anything?" Tetsu asked, knowing that he needed to mention about the meeting at Urahara's tomorrow. Tetsu had a feeling things were worse than they appeared.

"Water please," Ishida said lightly as both Ichigo and Tatsuki nodded as well.

Tetsu nodded and Hoshi followed to help and also filled up two glasses of water. Tetsu handed a glass to Ichigo and Tatsuki, while Hoshi handed one to Ishida. Hoshi sat back down in the chair.

" I heard from Urahara today. He wants everyone to be over at the shop at 1pm. I guess he has an idea of what might be going on. " Tetsu said once he had sat back down.

Ichigo wondered what the old man was thinking. He just hoped it was something that they could overcome. He shook his head lightly at that thought before taking a small sip of water. He knew that they would overcome, no matter what it was.

Hoshi took a drink of her water wondering what was wrong. She hoped it wasn't something that they couldn't defeat. Hoshi was determined to fight as hard as she could this time

Tatsuki took a slow sip of her water and wondered just what was in store for them. She hoped that it wasn't Aizen again, but could it be someone who was trying to follow in his footsteps? She kept her thoughts to herself for the moment, but would voice them at Urahara's shop.

Tetsu wondered what had happened to Aizen's zanpaktou Kyoka Suigetsu and hoped it wasn't in the hands of the wrong person. He saw the four all in deep thought, knowing they all wanted to know what would happen tomorrow at the Urahara shop.

Ishida thanked Tetsu for the hospitality before taking his leave.

" So how was the fair you three?" Tetsu asked a while after Ishida had left.

"It was good Tetsu-san," Tatsuki replied as Ichigo nodded as well.

Hoshi nodded too that she had a good time with her friends.

" I'm glad you three did. " Tetsu said, knowing that it might be the last free weekend everyone had. He was about to say something when the phone rang and excused himself to answer it in the other room.

Ichigo had a feeling that was going to be the last time the three of them could have a normal day for quite some time. "Guys...I don't think we're going to be having a normal day like today for any good amount of time," Ichigo said.

" I don't think we will either. School might be the only normal thing that we do for a while. " Hoshi said knowing Ichigo was right.

"That's kinda sad, if school is the only thing that's going to be normal for us for a while," Tatsuki said, wondering who Tetsu was talking to and what about.

Tetsu sighed as he hung up the phone and went back to the living room. " I guess the Soul Soicety knows of the battle this evening. I have to go tomorrow and give a full report. " Tetsu said, not wanting to miss the meeting at Urahara's. But he knew he had to report what had taken place today, not wanting anyone to think he was still a renegade.

"Really? Rukia or I never had to file a report when I was fighting in her place," Ichigo said in surprise.

" I think it has to do with what I was told on the phone. I was told that they been investigating the strange behavior of the hollows for the last few months now and want a first hand account of the behavior. I leave early tomorrow, but will be back before the day is over. " Tetsu said, seeing the look of sadness on Hoshi's face.

Hoshi was sad that her dad had to go again, but was used to him heading to Soul Soicety on this short of notice on weekends.

"That makes sense, although I wonder if it's just because you were helping us or if its because you're an ex-captain," Ichigo pondered. It was probably because he had helped them moreso than being an ex-captain though. "Anyways, I should start getting home. Who knows what the old man is doing without me there," he said in his usual tone of voice.

Tatsuki knew that Hoshi would be a little sad with her father going back to Soul Society for the day, but also knew that she had gotten use to it. "I can stay here with Hoshi, just in case something like this happens tomorrow," Tatsuki said. She knew Hoshi could take care of herself, but she thought Hoshi would like company around.

" It could be either if those reasons why they want to talk to me. Knowing Isshin , he's probably just being himself. " Tetsu said with a chuckle. See you later Ichigo. Tell your dad I said hello and will call him soon. ' He added. "Thank you Tatsuki. " Tetsu said glad Hoshi would have some company. He knew his daughter was fine alone, but knew that having company would be good for Hoshi.

Hoshi was glad that Tatsuki would be keeping her company while her dad was away.Hoshi hoped nothing bad would happen while her dad was away.

Ichigo nodded, mentioning that he would tell his dad, if he didn't have to knock him out first that was.

"You're welcome. It's the least I can do for a friend," Tatsuki said, debating if she should ask about staying the night or heading back home, but dind't want to sound rude by asking.

" Would you like to stay the night Tatsu?" Hoshi offered knowing her dad would say it was alright.

"If you don't mind Hosh," Tatsuki responded.
