Return from the Soul Society

[Roiben]

Roiben entered Karakura town again, returning from his battle with Aizen, which had gone horribly wrong. He held his arm over his gut, the wound hadn't fully healed while he was in the 4th division medical center, but he didn't care. He made a promise. A promise he would return as soon as he was able to. He didn't know were April would be waiting for him, but he would look for her all day if he needed to.

He wondered about his newly-obtained hollow powers. How could he master them? How could he learn to control them? Why hadn't he been able to control them against Aizen? What happened?

Roiben began to feel a little weak from all the time he spent shunpoing around looking for her. He decided to take a break, especially with the weakened condition his body was in. He sat in a park, and began to rest.

'I am not a raven, am I?'

So much ran through the human juggernaut's mind, it came to believe that it has only been a day or two since she last saw Roiben. April thought it had been about a week or so, the nights she could not sleep well. She tossed and turned just worried about Roiben and if he won... Walking through the park once made her relaxed but now... It was like death row. Her brother told her to stay away from this man that she found or she will lose her heart... He spoke to her about her being the princess of her family... A Raven Princess... Those blue orbs had dark bags under them from the lack of sleep, yet the glanced around... Something didn't feel quiet right...

It was a hollow not a Shinigami's reistu yet it felt so familiar. Those orbs just widen in disbelief, as she saw Roiben sit down yet she noticed his limping.. He was wounded... Had he won against Aizen or did he fail? April remembered telling him that should be wait at the cliff but it was about 20 minutes away... Coming up behind the man, covering his eyes and playfully whispered

"Guess Who?"

[Roiben]

Roiben's heart skipped a beat as he heard April's playful whisper ring in his ear, a sound that lifted much weight off his heavy heart. As he heard her voice, he smiled and tilted his head back, as if to look at her thorugh his covered eyes.

"April... it's so good to hear your voice again... I hope I didn't worry you too much..."

Roiben may not have killed Aizen, but it didn't matter to him. He did what he needed to do in his battle with Aizen... gain his hollow powers. Now, it was only a matter of training and learning to control those hollow powers. He could then have the power he needed to protect April.

It was then that he remember about his wound from Aizen. He hoped it didn't worry her. The wound was fatal when it was inflicted, but thanks to his time in the 4th division medical, it was only bothersome. Hopefully nobody tried to battle them now, because Roiben was in no condition to fight, lest he wanted to open his wound again.

When he tilted his head back, she slipped her arms down around his neck and embraced it softly and kisses his forehead gently... Her eyes were just gazing his own, they were so wonderful. April just noticed what she had done and turned bright red... How could she not notice what she had down. It made her rather embarrassed... Roiben was back and that is all she wanted. Hopefully they will live in peace after the battle with Aizen.

'Now I can rest at night happily...'[/i] She sighed heavily but leaned her cheek against his head.. "April... it's so good to hear your voice again... I hope I didn't worry you too much..." She laughed a bit yet it was only soft. She adsorb his scent yet it smelled like a hospital and blood... Two things that really worried her... "You did, I just lost a night or two of rest that is all... How can I not?" Her flushed cheeks just pulsed with streaks of redness. Maybe she was trying to act tough but how could she? She might not know what it is, but she loved the feeling of it. It made her soo blissful yet when he was away, she just felt like lost and rather a pain to everyone around her. Her red hair just dangled down from her head.. April just held him close for it was something she desire.. As a human juggernaut, she will protect him from anything that came down to fight Roiben. She won't not let anyone touch him or even hurt him.. "Are you alright?

[Roiben]

Roiben slightly blushed when she kissed his forehead, he hadn't expected that. While she stared into his eyes, he did the same.

"Yeah, i'll be alright, I just need a couple days of rest so that I don't re-open the wound..."

Roiben stood up and held April in his arms, glad to have her with him once again. He may not have succedded in killing Aizen, but he didn't care. He hated being away from April. He smiled and looked into her eyes, and in her eyes he could see the reflection of his happiness. It was at moment he realized he probably smelled like blood because of his battle.

"I'm sorry for the smell... the battle kinda went unexpectedly..."

As he said this, he chuckled and closed his eyes. He did that as not to worry April about the battle. He cared about her and didnt want her to worry. He just wanted her to be as happy as she could possibly be.

[~Sweet Mommy~]

Something didn't seem right, instead of normal birds there were ravens surrounding them in the trees, caaing at them, as if they are telling them that they are watching them. It made April just shiver at what her brother said to her... That Roiben will die if she continued to be around him... Her arms wrapped his lower chest gently, pulled herself in his bubble. It feel so safe... It has been a while since she has very felt this safe around anyone... Last time was when her mother but she died so long ago that she would not know how it felt. April didn't care either if he didn't win, only now cared to her. Within his arms nothing seemed to cut through their defense... Her cheeks just flushed with redness for he so happy, and that is all that matters. April wanted to make Roiben as much as he could possibly be... There are no doubts about it, she had to be there for him no matter what. When he spoke as he lost but it didn't matter... He was there with her... Her eyes just closed as she smiled back at him before speaking

"It is okies~! My house won't be the safest for you right now... I say we take you to your Taichou's place..." She spoke has he would be killed just if he took a footstep into the house, and it was high possibly that just might happen... Her family were royal just no one quiet knew it so she rather keep it hush hush from everyone. Those soft fragile hands just rubbed his clothed back.. She cared about him that she didn't want to bring him in any harm...

[Urahara Kisuke]

Having left his humble abode merely four hours previously, Urahara Kisuke just intuitively knew this wasn’t going to be a simple easy stroll like he had planned it to be, he could just tell. The water was too calm maybe…the air too stagnant… whatever it was the veteran shinigami kept his senses pepped and his reactions sharper. Musing his way across the slats of a particularly old and character oozing terrace block in the heart of old Karakura he had been following the interaction between two particularly peculiar individuals who Urahara had not imagined he would have seen together quite intently, up until now he had just been hanging back - observing, gauging…waiting. This time however, the waiting did not have to last long, the situation appeared to Urahara to be pretty self explanatory and quite serious in a well underplayed and hidden way… the young man who had just emerged from the senkei gate to be met by the strangely different girl was in need of some serious treatment but he was letting the two worst human emotions get in the way…pride…and…love. Urahara knew he had to act fast and coolly if he ever wanted a chance at saving the young mans body and keeping it in one piece, if he at any point realised that Urahara was attempting to take him back for urgent treatment he would immediately brush it off and would wind up passing out in an alleyway four or five streets from here… Urahara did not wish for it to reach that stage.

Moving as calmly and warmly as a Sunday breeze he washed over the buildings and enveloped himself into the ground below, billowing nonchalantly forward with a disarming but uninterestedly hurried state Urahara in one fell movement positioned his arm jovially behind the shinigami’s neck and dropped two miniature droplets of an odd purple liquid onto the back of the mans neck (here I am using Goishon Renda the liquid used by Hanatarô Yamada the 4th division medic that accompanies ichigo and renji when they infiltrate SS to rescue Rukia, he uses it on two guards during the invasion and one drop each knocks them both out solidly for a few hours) The liquid dribbles down the mans neck and he instantly drops to the floor, Urahara almost not fast enough to catch him. Slinging the now unconscious man on his back he turns to the girl before him and addresser her

“I am Urahara Kisuke, humble shop owner and protector of souls on earth and predominantly the ones in Karakura town…I do not know your name but right now we do not have time for names I am afraid… your boyfriend here was fibbing just a little when he told you he was fine and actually these wounds his body has sustained are quite dangerous if he is left untended… I must say I am amazed he is even able to walk in this state but I suppose someone of your power level wouldn’t really settle for a weaker man now would you?” Urahara said as he skipped off his right foot and landed on his left, bracing downwards and pushing forwards all in one split second movement he landed gracefully on the building above them and looked down
“Come on then, he doesn’t have all day to sit on my shoulders while we play the introduction game! You are welcome to come back and wait with him until he has recovered… but I’m afraid we may be a little low on supplies for your dinner tonight…may a bit minimalistic…” Urahara could just be heard saying as his voice tailed off somewhere in the distance, he was wasting no time as under his cool exterior he knew this mans condition could be critical soon. A faint trail of reitsu hung in the air for a second as a guiding line for the obscure girl to follow back to the shop…
