Isshin turned and headed back to the children. "Ready to go home?" He asked

Hoshi shook her head yes and grabbed one of the two bags she had brought. She had packed what she would need for the week ,and that included a few books. She almost never went any where without one. She saw her dad drive back home. Tetsu had to get a few things ready before he left. That included the report he was supposed turn in. He was ready to go back .even if it was temporary . He didn't like the chill he got while driving home . He knew Aizen had something planned. He just hoped it didn't have to do with Hoshi.

(timeskip work?)

( time skip will work. :) )

They had arrived back at the clinic without any thing happening . Hoshi had the feeling that the peace wouldn't last much longer. She would enjoy spending time with her friends very much.

(kk)

Ichigo was glad that nothing had happened yet, but he knew that he couldn't let his guard down. If he did that, then he knew bad things were going to happen.

The next day Tetsu walked over to Urahara's. Today was it. He waited for Isshin to arrive .

Hoshi had slept fitfully that night. About 4:30 , she layed there on the floor while Ichigo's sisters slept. Hoshi did have a dream that bothered her. The faces were getting clearer. Some of them did scare her. She hoped her dad would be alright.

Isshin stood in front of Urahara's shop for a few minutes, breathing in the cold, crisp air. He the sighed lightly and ran a hand through his hair before heading inside, knowing that Tetsu and Kisuke were waiting for him. He quickly went down the ladder and joined the previous captains.

Tetsu was talking with Urahara when Isshin came down. Tetsu knew for a fact he wasn't the same man that had left all those years ago. He knew he was different than the scared fourth seat determined to protect and defend. Now he was the determined father wanting to protect his child from the same man he ran from. This was the only way he could protect Hoshi. "Ready to go Isshin? He said . He was glad his friend was going with him.

Hoshi tried her best to fall asleep again . She just laid there with her eyes closed. She knew her dad was doing the right thing by going. " I know he can take care of himself. I wonder if any of the faces I saw, are the people he knew all that time ago. I wonder who they are. I don't want to meet the ones that look like hollows though. "She thought to herself as she fell back asleep.

"Ready whenever you are old friend," Isshin responded, both waiting for the gate that would transport them to Soul Society. Sure they could have opened one themselves, but it was so long since they last created one that they weren't sure what would happen if they tried.

Tatsuki woke up early like she usually did, however this time she had Hoshi's father on her mind.

The gate opened and Tetsu couldn't tell where it headed . "I guess it's time to go back. I never thought I would see one of these again. You want to go first? " Tetsu asked . He didn't know who opened the gate for them , but he assumed it might have been Mayuri who did.

Hoshi woke again when Ichigo's sisters did. She let them use the bathroom first. She couldn't sense her dad and it bothered her. She knew he would be alright. If not she didn't know what she would do.She had a strange feeling that today something was going to happen. And it gave her a very bad feeling .

Isshin shrugged his shoulder. "Why not?" He asked out loud, before heading into the gate. He walked before standing on a rocky cliff. He chuckled lightly, remembering as how Yoruichi told him that the first time they did this they were in the middle of the sky as the starting point. "Man am I glad that we have ground under our feet." He said before he noticed two people. One was Tetsu coming out of the gate, the other was the captain of the twelfth division. "Ah good, you're here Mayori-san." Isshin said as the captain scowled at the disrespect Isshin displayed to him.

Ichigo yawned as he woke up, noticing that Kon was still snoring away. Ugh...note to self, find a way to cure Kon's snoring he thought to himself as he grabbed the stuffed lion and quickly waking him up, not listening to the indignation of said lion.

Tetsu noticed the scowl Mayuri gave him when he arrived though the gate. He bid both goodbye and headed toward the Central 46 compound . Later afte his testimony he would have to under go testing and then assist in finding a way to neutralize the hollows. Testu knew that the Soul Society didn't know at least for know that the hollows were from the souls of Seers. He didn't want to tell them that Hoshi was one. She wasn't a threat to them . She might have to help him though. Tetsu knew Hoshi was one for a while, he knew that now the prediction abilities would get more accurate. He was called and he went forward to tell what he knew.

Hoshi went downstairs and sat at the kitchen table. She would do her best to have a good time with her friends. She just hoped the bad feeling she had would go away.

Isshin followed Mayori to his study as he noticed Tetsu head towards the Central tower, to where the General Commander called a meeting, knowing in advance that Mayori Kurotsuchi would be helping Kurosaki Isshin with a project.

"You do realize that by calling this favor in, you can't do much more here if things get out of hand with your friend," Mayori said as Isshin nodded with a scowl on his face.

"This is more important. Besides, Tetsu can take care of himself," He said, not telling Mayori about Hoshi.

Ichigo headed downstairs, dressed and sat down at the kitchen table as well. He sensed that Hoshi had a bad feeling, and knew that her bad feelings usually led to something bad really happening. He would ask her on their way to school, if she wanted to talk about it that is.

Hoshi had showered and had gotten ready for school that day . " Morning Ichigo .Don't forget we have a half day today. Then the rest of the week off." Hoshi said to Ichigo with a small smile . She wanted to talk about what was bothering her. She had helped Yuzu with breakfast that morning and Hoshi knew somehow that things were going well for her dad .

Tetsu was relieved that the charges against him were dropped and that Seers were not a threat to the Soul Society. He had pleaded their case ,stating that the Seers were used like he was. He learned that Seers had an unknown origin , and they had been around for thousands of years. He was glad Hoshi wouldn't be seen as a threat, but didn't want her involved in this mess anymore than she already was. Tetsu knew Isshin couldn't help him much here. He could take care of himself if he needed to.He wouldn't mention Hoshi's name while he was here. He wasn't sure if they already knew it but he felt by them not knowing it, she wouldn't be contacted. He headed toward his evaluation with alot on his mind.

"Morning" Ichigo replied as he noticed the plates of breakfast at the table. Call it intuition, the young man had a feeling that Hoshi had helped make breakfast, thanking both girls as he usually did. Knowing that Karin already left for an early soccer practice, he started eating his breakfast in silence.

He would wait until the walk to school before he would ask Hoshi what was wrong.

Hoshi was glad Ichigo liked the breakfast. It was the least she could do since his dad let her stay for the week. She took some of the dishes to the sink and washed them off. She was up early that morning. Usually she didn't get up that early, but she had a difficult time sleeping after her dad left. She sat down and waited for Ichigo to finish his breakfast before they left.

Ichigo finished his breakfast and brought his dishes to the sink before washing them off and placing them onto the drying rack before picking his bag up. "Ready to go?"

"I'm ready ." Hoshi said getting out of the chair. She grabbed her bag and went toward the door. She was glad that there was at least a half day today. Hoshi often used school to try to keep her mind off the things that bothered her. She had the feeling Ichigo wanted to ask her what was wrong. She would tell him as much as she could. She headed out the door .

Ichigo headed out the door right after she did, knowing that Yuzu would lock the door and take her key with her when she did so. As they headed to school, they met up with Tatsuki and Orihime. Quickly scowling to himself before getting said scowl off his face, he offered his friends a Morning, knoiwng that his questions for Hoshi would have to wait.

Hoshi greeted Tatsuki and Orihime when she saw them. She talked with them , but kept her guard up. She would have to wait to tell Ichigo what she dreamed. The walk to school was uneventful. They stood on the school grounds until the bell rang. She did see Ishida walk in , but she didn't wave. Hoshi really wanted to know why he distrusted her. She would still be nice, but had pretty much given up on him being a friend. They all headed to their class and Hoshi got her homework out once she sat down.

(New Thundercats is AWESOME!)

Ichigo sat down in his seat before rummaging in his bag for his homework. He noticed Hoshi tensing up when both Tatsuki and Orihime showed up and he was curious as to why.

( It is? Is it a show or a movie? I use to love that show as a kid.I might check it out.)

Hoshi hated when she tensed up. She had the feeling this week would not be uneventful. Sometimes she couldn't tell if it was the Shinigami or Seer side of her that gave her the sense of danger in the air. It was all too new to her. She didn't have anyone to ask about the Seers . She didn't know what they were capable of other than seeing the future. She wished she could have asked her grandma about them. The morning went fast and the bell rang at noon for school to be out. She had her homework written down in her notebook and put her books in her bag. She helped put the chairs up before meeting Ichigo.

(It's been redone and showing on CN, Fridays at 8:30. It's a sequel to the original and the hour long premiere was awesome)

Ichigo was talking to Urahara via cell phone as he waited for Hoshi. Once he finished the call, he saw that Hoshi was standing next to him. Flipping the cellphone back into it's normal mode, he slipped it into his pocket, not minding the wait.

"Sorry if I scared you. Is everything okay?" Hoshi asked him. She hoped they were.

"Everything's fine. Urahara said that my dad just came back with Asami's body. He wanted to ask if the two of us wanted to see if my dad's guess worked or not." He said, watching Hoshi for a reaction.
