Chapter 6: A father talk
Jasmine was sitting in top of the rooftop, as if it really calms her mind, as that the events that happened seemed too much for her.
"Was coming here a good thing?" She thought, as a cough was heard, as she turns around, to see it was her father standing there.
"Dad." She said, as Isshin seems to be concerned about his oldest child, as he asked, "Can I join you?"
He sat down as both father and daughter stared at the night sky. "It's a beautiful night, isn't?"
"It is. Wait, how you know i would be up here, alone?"
"Ichigo does the exact same thing when he was being stressed out on a mission from the Soul Society.
Sometimes he just want to let his emotions out. He's a good kid." Isshin explains but hearing about her brother seems like a fantasy to her.
"Have long did Ichigo found out about you?"
"Over the past year. Yeah, he was kind of shocked when i revealed i was once the captain of the 10th Division. "
Jasmine was silent for a bit, until she was aware that he wasn't joking. "Wait, you used to be a c-captain?!?"
He rubbed his head, "Yeah, as for your mother, Masaki, she was a Pure Quincy. "
"Is that how Ichigo and I are half-Quinces? Because of her powers?" She asked, wanting to learn more about her heritage.
Isshin nods, "Precisely . She was brave soul, just like you. Jasmine, i didn't know. "
"How could you? I was the one who erased my existence by using a ki memory charm. It was my decision, not my brother's .
Also... it not fair he already can use Bankei before me! I've been trying for the last few years and i still can't unleash it!"
Isshin laughs as he hugs her in comfort, "Hey, it's not all that bad, Jasmine. You'll get your shot eventually. Just be patience. "
He leaves her, as Jasmine sighs as she went to bed.
The next morning, Ichigo smells someone was cooking. "Jasmine, good morning. Are you making breakfast?"
She turns around to see him already awake, "Wow, you're up early. I remembered how much you oversleep sometimes."
"I still do, why is that a crime, Sis?" He puffs at her sarcasm, as that Jasmine giggles at her brother.
"So.. the Gates of Hell . I don't understand how it was opened, but it seems like you had your hands full with that task. "
"It's been more than three weeks since Aizen was defeated. Honestly, that coward is much of a hassle. "
Kon walks up to the table, "Hey, don't forget how troublesome you were with your Hallowification and your Fullbringer abilities? "
"Hallowification?"
"I can transform into a Hallow only for a limit time. I can conjure it only for a minute or two. Once the transformation time is over, i basically lost a lot of stamina afterwords. "
"So, that is like a last resort?" Jasmine asked, trying to understand the powers .
"More or less, so, I think I have some unanswered questions . What exactly happened that day when we were kids?
You said, you erased my memories about you, what you do then?"
They were unaware of that Karin was listening into their conversation before entering the living room.
"Ichigo, it's not like I want to tell you, you might be amazed. "
"C'mon! We're siblings after all, and besides, no one is here . Dad is at the clinic and i have no school for the day. Let's just catch up. "
"Sibling? Jasmine... Jasmine is our sister? Why didn't Ichigo and Dad tell us?" Karin thought to herself, as she decided to head to their Dad's clinic to confirm the truth.
Isshin was in the clinic, searching for medical supplies, when Karin slams the door open. "Dad, we need to talk. Now."
The former captain was so shaken by his younger daughter's attitude, as he gulps in total fear of her.
"S-Sure. I'm not entirely busy at the moment... come in." He said.
Karin sat across from her father. Neither said a word, until he broke the awkward silence. "So, what you want to talk about?"
"I want to confirm something. That girl, Jasmine, she's not just an ordinary girl, isn't she?
In fact, let me be blunt. She's actually our sister, isn't she?"
The captain sighs, as if that he couldn't hide the truth from her. "How did you find out? Did Ichigo or Jasmine told you yourself?"
"Neither of them . I just happen to find out by listening into their conversation earlier before i came here.
Why didn't you tell me or Yuzu about her? "
He sighs, "Honestly, I have forgotten all about her, so does Ichigo. He was close to her when they were younger before you and your sister was born.
Ichigo is now a little bit conflicted about how their relationship is now with her being back here. Jasmine feels the same way.
Last time that Ichigo ever saw of her was when he was five years old . Something drastic happened that day which made us forget her. "
Karin felt a little bit of jealousy of that Jasmine knew their brother longer, as Jasmine and Ichigo walked to his high school.
At Karakura High School, Chad and the others waited for Ichigo to come. Orihime looked at Ishida with a weird expression.
"What's wrong?" Ishida asked her as Orihime said, "Well, you know something right? That girl that Ichigo took in, something must've happened. "
"I think it's better if he explains this in pure detail, besides, he seems like he was serious of meeting us at school instead in his house." Chad spoke up.
The trio sighs, as right then, they spotted them. "Ichigo!"
He waves back at them, as that he was relieved to see them. Jasmine was shy of meeting her brother's friends for the first time, but he encourages her, as if that was his intention all along.
"Ahem. I guess that I should get straight to business. Jasmine, these are my friends I wanted you to meet.
Over here, this is Ishida, he's a Quincy, and you can learn how to use your Quincy powers more frequently.
Chad, he has this power that can make his strength came out . His power is incredible. As for Orihime, she has healing powers, in case we get into in tight fight, she's an powerful ally to mess with. "
She blushed, "You don't have to say that out loud! That's.. that's a little bit embarrassing."
"It's the truth, how many times I've got into trouble without your powers, i'm grateful for that." He complimented.
"So, Ichigo, who is she? " Chad asked him as Ichigo nudged her to make the introduction herself.
"This may surprise you all, i am Ichigo's big sister. My name is Jasmine. Jasmine Kurosaki."
"What?"
