*~*~*~*
Standing before the house that he had grown up in before the day it had all been taken away, Ichigo licked his lips slowly before taking in a deep breath and running a hand through his hair.
It had been nearly three years since he had seen the house that was standing before him. Three years where he had gone to an art school, graduated with some of the highest scores of his classmates and with an offer to go to another prestigious college to continue on with his schooling. He had moved past the utter hatred that he had felt towards his family’s killers and the pain of losing them the way he had.
He still felt the pain but it didn’t hurt as much and he still hated them but it wasn’t blinding. His goal now was to make sure that they would never do what they had done to his family to anyone else ever again. Ciel and Sebastian had made sure that he would have all of the knowledge to get him going. Undertaker had surprisingly taken over his training for his powers, knowing enough to get him to the point where he could explore and discover on his own.
He knew he was half shinigami, had actually met with his zanpactou’s physical being and named him but he hadn’t gone that last step in opening the box with his powers. Not until he had a secure place and he knew that he was going to find it here, with his godfather Kisuke Urahara, an exiled shinigami in his own right, to watch over him as he did so.
But that would happen once he set things into motion here in Karakura Town.
Jerking slightly, he turned around when Sebastian placed his hand onto his lower back with concerned blood colored eyes, black eyebrow cocked. “Ichigo, are you alright?” the demon asked, curling his fingers around the young man’s hip and soothing the frantic thoughts that were obviously running about the young man’s head.
“Yeah, I am. I’m just thinking about what is going to happen soon,” Ichigo hummed, smiling up at the other. He had gotten closer to Sebastian and Ciel over the last few years, close enough to call them brother and be called brother in return. He wore a simple necklace that rested against his neck, an enchantment that hid him from those who dared to try to find him before he wanted to be found. A gift from his demonic siblings but also from William who had added his own type of power to the necklace.
William was next in coming up to him and grasped his hand, bringing it up to kiss his palm with a gentle look. “Come on, let’s do what we need to do and get this part over with. It’s like ripping off a bandage,” he said, Ichigo nodding his head. Walking up to the door, they unlocked the door with the new key that they had been sent by Sado after he had changed the locks on the doors for them.
Taking a deep breath, Ichigo pushed the door open and they stepped in, Sebastian, Grell, Ciel and Undertaker all unloading the car as the couple stepped into the house. The first thing that the younger of the two noticed was the scent of cleaners and the lack of dust on any surface. Stepping past the entry hall, shoes pulled off, they headed further into the house, walking into the living room. The furniture looked as if it had been cleaned deeply and the curtains looked freshly washed.
“It looks as if Sado came in with my friends to clean for us,” Ichigo hummed, eyes taking in the places where he could remember pictures hanging, and where books and albums once sat. Lacing his fingers with William’s, he stepped away from the living room and walked into the kitchen. He took in the new appliances that Ciel and Sebastian had gotten installed in preparation of them coming to stay, and the laundry room beyond the kitchen before walking up the stairs with some trepidation.
He walked to his father’s room first, finding brand new carpet having replaced the original that had been stained and squeezed William’s fingers. His companion stroked his thumb over the back of his knuckles, giving him the comfort he needed. The two took in the room that had once been Isshin’s room, the walls painted a neutral color while the bed and the furniture replaced with a new bed, dresser and desk.
Leaving the room, the couple headed to the twin’s room, finding it to had been repainted and refurnished, the girls things all packed away and stored in the basement along with Isshin’s and Masaki’s items. Finding that he wasn’t seeing their bodies where they had laid but instead memories of them doing things came to him. Humming quietly and leaning against his partner, lead him to his bedroom, finding it cleaned out as a guest room.
“This is where I grew up,” Ichigo sighed, moving into the room and smiling at the desk that would act as his main desk and study area more than likely. He looked to his closet and opened it, finding three rolled up futons along with some new linens, making him chuckle. “It seems as if Ciel and Sebastian have seen to everything that we need,” he said, pulling his companion down to the main bathroom before meeting Ciel and Sebastian at the top of the stairs.
“We’ll be taking the guest room, which used to be your sister’s room,” Ciel stated, Ichigo nodding and taking his bags from Sebastian as William took his own from Grell.
“Grell and I will take the office for now and then we’ll figure out what you want to do with the clinic. Undertaker apparently has a place to stay,” William offered, getting a nod of agreement from Ichigo as he headed to his room with his bags, dropping them off and coming back for the other bags that were his. The others followed after him, dropping off their bags in their chosen rooms before Sebastian disappeared off to buy groceries with Grell following after him like a faithful puppy dog.
Ichigo was soon placing his things away, working on refolding and putting away his clothes when William came in and joined him in putting things away, the two quiet as they worked.
“So, what’s first on the things we need to do?” William asked, making sure that Ichigo’s art supplies were tucked away just right.
“First things first,” Ichigo said, closing the drawer to his dresser and standing up straight after hiding away a cell phone, “we get food in this house and then tomorrow we talk with Urahara. I know I’ve been talking with him for a while but that’s over the phone. I think it’s important that we talk with him face to face though.”
“Of course,” William hummed, pulling out his phone and frowning at it with a serious look on his face. “Depending on what time you go I may not be able to go with you,” he warned, Ichigo chuckling and coming over to tug him down to a kiss by his tie.
“I know. I’m just lucky that you guys do your work via computers now days instead of handwriting it all,” he teased, getting a low powered glare from his partner. William had told him that it hadn’t taken them long to get into computers once the first one had come out in the Living world and adapt them to the use of the Grim Reapers. He had been teased about it whenever Ichigo felt the urge to.
“Shush, brat,” William huffed and tugged on a lock of Ichigo’s hair that had grown to brush his back and frame his face. “Come on, let us see if we cannot order something for dinner and discuss what we should do,” he suggested, the two finding Ciel sitting at the dining room table with menus spread out before him. “Reading our minds I see.”
“Indeed I have,” Ciel chuckled, picking up one menu and holding it out. “I figured we’d go for something traditional for our first official day back in Japan.”
“That sounds good to me,” Ichigo hummed, sitting down at the table with Ciel and William. They ordered for themselves and for their missing friends before settling in to talk, Ciel and William calling the other two on their cells as they shopped. “So, we’re going to see Urahara tomorrow morning, while the schools are in session since he does run a candy shop, such as it is.”
“I thought classes were out for the summer, Ichigo,” Grell said, his voice coming from William’s phone.
“Not for the Japanese. The school year extends a bit longer here,” Ichigo reminded his friend as he tapped his fingers on the table. “I think you and William will probably be busy during that time so Ciel, Sebastian and I shall all go and met with him. If you have time, you can come and meet him then, if that’s fine.”
“Sounds fine to me,” William replied, Ichigo smiling up at him. “If you need us, we will be watching you from afar,” he promised.
“Anyways, during that time we’ll discuss how to…disconnect my soul from my body, if you will, so that I can use my powers without being held back,” Ichigo continued. “I think after we do that, I will try to meet with my friends. They have been apparently studying with Urahara to control their abilities, which is a surprise to me,” he snorted, shaking his head. “Sado let slip during the call that I had with him on the plane actually. It was kind of interesting to learn that not only does Sado have powers, but so does Orihime, and apparently this one classmate who was a real stuck up piece of work named Uryuu Ishida is a Quincy.”
“I thought the Quincy’s were all killed out by the psycho Mayuri , the guy who runs the Twelfth division,” Grell yelped. Ichigo frowned and adding another name to his ever growing list of people to watch and take care of eventually.
“No. Two, well three if you count your mother, Ichigo, were well hidden away from the Seireitei's eyes,” Sebastian stated over Ciel’s line. “So, we are to meet these friends of yours finally? How about your other friends?” he asked.
“Tatsuki, Keigo and Mizuiro? They all show signs of some ability to see spirits and interact with them but not quite as much as Sado, Orihime and Ishida-san all do. I think it comes from the fact that they live a pretty happy life, all things considered and have no need to truly worry about how the spiritual world shall affect them. Sado and Orihime have both been touched by death,” Ichigo explained, sighing softly. “Ishida-san’s ability comes from his family’s line I believe.”
“That is correct,” Ciel hummed, nodding his head with a smile before sitting back and playing with the menus on the table.
“So you shall speak with Urahara-san come morning along with your friends, correct?” Sebastian asked, a yelp from Grell coming over loud and clear from the two, getting a snicker from Ichigo.
“Yes, we shall. And I’ll bring them over for you guys to introduce them if you don’t make it to the meeting,” Ichigo promised, before they all said their goodbyes and went back to setting up the house, including opening the windows to let in air flow through the rooms once more. The stale scent had cleared out by the time Sebastian and Grell had arrived once more at the house, instead replaced by the freshness of the real world and the scent of real food.
