Chapter 49 - Urahara’s Shop

After a couple of hours Soren had finally got used to controlling the spirits and could freely control them, Soren was now standing about his old house waiting for Ichigo. After an hour, Ichigo had come out of the house with Rukia and started to head off somewhere, Soren could guess that it was a Hollow that they were heading off to kill.

[Hm… I have been in that Hollow world for 2 days so it should be 20 days out here, I still have a long way to go before Rukia is taken back to Soul Society… What should I do in the meantime?]: soren

{DING!... HOST CAN PRACTICE MORE ON THE (Lost in the Spirit's Series) HOST IS 63% COMPLETE FOR FULL UNDERSTANDING OF THE SOUL}

[But I read those books like 40 times… How don't I have a full understanding of them, I even know the books page for page without looking at it]: soren

{HOST MAY KNOW THE BOOKS PAGE FOR PAGE BUT HAVE FAILED TO FULLY UNDERSTAND THE REASON BEHIND THE BOOKS}

[So there's more to them ay?... Okay! Let's go find a secluded place and start reading]: soren

About 7 Months later on top of a mountain, a man was sitting with his legs crossed appearing to be concentrated on something, once the man was finished with what he was doing he stood up and let out a loud shout.

[Finally!... I finished comprehending the whole series]: soren

The man who was on that mountain was none other than Soren, he had just finished the Lost in the Spirit's Series.

{CONGRATS HOST FOR A 100% COMPLETION ON YOUR (Lost in the Spirit's Series) WOULD HOST LIKE TO BUY THE NEXT SET?}

[What the fuck! There's more?]: soren

{THERE ARE 3 MORE SERIES HOST CAN BUY}

[No!... I will wait for now and see what I missed, Sakura, how long was I reading for?]: soren

{HOST WAS OUT FOR 7 MONTHS… WOULD HOST LIKE A RECAP OF WHAT HAPPENED AROUND YOU?}

[You can do that?]: soren

{YES!... INITIATING RECAP…

… DOG PEED ON HOST

… HOBO PEED ON HOST

… BIRDS POOPED ON HOST

… }

[That's not what I meant! And nasty! If I see that Hobo I will kill him]: soren

{DING!... HOBO WAS A FEMALE}

[What the fuck!... Why would a girl pee on me?]: soren

{SHE SAID YOU WERE TO CUTE AND THAT IT WAS A SIN SO SHE NEEDED TO GIVE YOU DIVINE RETRIBUTION}

[...I have no words for this]: soren A/N: I really don't… I went too far here

[Sakura what happened in the outside world around Ichigo?]: soren

{THE SYSTEM CAN NOT PERFORM THIS, HOST MUST FIND OUT FOR HOST SELF}

[Well that was a ride… You got my hopes up for nothing, I guess I will go to Urahara's shop to see if Ichigo is there]: soren

Soren made his way down the mountain, he also stopped by a public bath house to get rid of the filth that gathered for 7 months. When he was done he made his was to Urahara's shop, once Soren got there he knocked on the door.

[Coming!]: ???

When the door opened a little girl with black hair opened the door to see a man wearing a mask.

[H-Hollow!]: little girl

The girl punched towards the man wearing a mask but the punch was caught by the one wearing the mask.

[Little girl I am no Hollow, I am here to see if a friend dropped by]: soren

Then from the back of the shop the voice of a boy came.

[Ururu, what's up I told you to tell them that we are closed, why are you still there]: boy

[Sorry Jinta, he said he's looking for his friend]: ururu

The boy named Jinta shot towards the front of the shop to see who the person was looking for, and when Jinta saw the Hollow mask he was startled and shouted.

[Ururu watch out!... Damn Hollow, die!]: jinta

Jinta then pulled a big metal club seamingly out of nowhere and swung it down towards Soren, Soren then caught the club and stated once more.

[I am no Hollow… Is there a man named Ichigo here?]: soren

Jinta was still wary about the man before him who caught his club and then stated that he is not a Hollow but wore a Hollow mask. Soren on the other hand was thinking about something else.

'They must not have seen Ichigo's Hollow mask yet… That means either Ichigo is not out of the hole yet or Rukia has not been taken yet'

Jinta then spoke up.

[Why are you here for Carrot Top… he's training with mr. Urahara]: jinta

[I am here to help him train, can I come in?]: soren

Jinta then lost all wariness about the man in the mask before him and spoke up.

[Yeah, come in they are in the basement]: jinta

Soren, Jinta and Ururu all had gone down the the big training area, when Soren started to descend he was surprised to see that what made this place look like the outside and bring light in was spirits.

[Carrot Top is over in that hole… Once he makes it out can he be a Soul Reaper]: jinta

Soren walked over towards Urahara and once Urahara turned around to ask the two kids who was at the door he seen Soren standing there with his Hollow mask on.

[Hollow!]: urahara

Soren gave Urahara no chance to attack because he felt he might not be able to block the attack without taking damage, so he spoke.

[I'm not a Hollow its just a mask]: soren

The two kids came from behind Soren and spoke up for him.

[Yeah! He's here to help train Ichigo]: ururu

After a little bit Ichigo shot out from the hole with a bunch of smoke shooting up as well. When everyone saw Ichigo wearing the same kind of Hollow mask as the masked man earlier Jinta asked.

[Is he a Hollow or not?]: jinta

[He is not a Hollow… He is the same as me]: soren

After the some cleared Ichigo saw Soren standing next to Urahara, Ichigo then went into a rage shooting towards Soren pulling out his broken Zanpakuto.

[Step back a bit guys, I will take it from here]: soren

Soren then pulled out his Zanpakuto leaving everyone in amazement.
