" Aaaahhh !!! " She screamed. She gripped tightly into the blanket. She pulled off her sleeve and stuffed it into her mouth.

Tsurara ; almost !!!

With one more scream and she relieves a breath of relief. The sounds of a baby cry echoed the house.

Tsurara: congratulations. It's a baby girl.

Niko: urahara. Now!

Tsurara ; eh ? Shouldn't I call hitsugaya-san for you ?

Niko: rikuo . Rikuo!!!

Rikuo came into the room " what?! Daijobu? "

Niko: Ground Zero festival. Promise me to not let hiumura and hitsugaya back until it's over.

Rikuo: why ?

Niko: just do it !!!

Urahara pulls out his zanpaktou " are you sure? " Niko stood over her baby " do it. Do you still have that candy shop?"

Urahara: I do.

Niko: bring her there. Hide. Don't give her diabetes.

Urahara: have you thought of a name?

Niko: Yuki.

Urahara: I got it. How about uchiha?

Niko: he can find me if he wants to.

Rikuo: hey ! Mika.

Mika: rikuo? How come you can come ?

Rikuo; I'm a demon.

Mika ; but you don't belong inside here. How did you come ?

Rikuo; they open a special passage for demons to participate everytime.

Mika turns around, face darkens.

* Gintoki , missing *

Mika: tsk. My money.

Rikuo laughs " you just burn paper isn't it ? "

Mika : eh. There's that.

Rikuo: how long are you going to be here ?

Mika: I'm returning tomorrow.

Rikuo; how about you stay here until the festival is over ? I'll accompany with you.

Mika: but that's like a month.

Rikuo: I don't think you'll get to come in after Niko gives birth.

Mika: mmmm... Ok.

Rikuo: how about you ? Hitsugaya-san

Toshiro: I'm returning later. Got to check on her.

Flashback ~

Rikuo: but hitsugaya-san is so strict. He won't listen to me.

Urahara: I know a way.

End of flashback~

Rikuo gives toshiro a list " here. The Monday to Friday specials that Niko wants to eat " Toshiro takes it over and opens the list and sighs " these are very difficult to get ."

Rikuo; she wants to eat.

Toshiro: I'll just buy them when I come back.

Rikuo; crap...

Toshiro: why?

Rikuo; nothing...

Nurarihyon: you're back. Was it fun ?

Toshiro: I guess.

Nurarihyon: came back early cos you miss Niko huh?

Toshiro ; how is she ? It probably already passed 2 days over here .

Nurarihyon: she's not here anymore.

Toshiro: what do you mean ?

Nurarihyon: Congratulations. You have a baby girl. Her name is Yuki I think.

Toshiro: what?!!! She gave birth while I'm not around?! Is she ok ?! What do you mean she's not around?

Nurarihyon: wow. She really knows you. Rikuo really couldn't keep you there.

Toshiro: where is she ? Jii jii. ( Old man )

Nurarihyon drinks his cup of tea " not here. I don't know. But kisuke came before. Took your baby with you. "

Toshiro: how about her?

Nurarihyon: don't know. I did try to convince her to stay at least for a few days. She did just give birth. She just left.

Toshiro ; ... How about the gigai? Did she get out of it ?

Nurarihyon: she did.

" Arigatou" and Toshiro left.

Toshiro: where are you ?

Urahara: you know where. I only have one place here in the living world. See you.

Toshiro knocks " it's me. Hitsugaya." Urahara opens the door " come in. "  Toshiro enters as urahara closes the door after him.

Toshiro: where's Yuki ?

Urahara: in my room.
.
.
.
Toshiro took his first glance at his baby. He picked up the baby in his arms, he looked at her fondly. Yuki grabbed onto his finger instinctively and giggled a little.
.
.
.
Toshiro : alright. Where's Niko ?

Urahara was drinking tea " why don't you take a seat ? " Toshiro takes a seat as urahara poured tea into a new cup.

Toshiro: where's she ?

Urahara: can't say.

Toshiro: don't make this ugly. Kisuke.

Urahara: calm down.

Toshiro: then tell me.

Urahara: I really can't tell you.

Toshiro: you know then.

Urahara: kind of.

Toshiro: then tell me. I really don't want to fight you. But I am, running out of patience. She just gave birth 2 days ago. What if she just passes out ? She's not as invincible as everyone makes her out to be.

Urahara: she's fine.

Toshiro looks to him " so you do want to test my patience."

Urahara: you aren't the only one from that generation. We both have zanpaktous and both were taichous then. Let's not make a big fuss.

Toshiro relived a breath and drinks the tea from the cup " how can I find her ? "

Urahara: you can't ?

Toshiro : I won't be here if I could. I can't track her with the shinigami locator. That means she's using a gigai that's not registered. The gigai she was stuck with.

Urahara: yup.

Toshiro: tell me everything kisuke. She has been hiding things from me hasn't she ? Her running away. Why? What is she running away from ? Or is she hiding away from something?

Urahara adjusts his hat " the gigai and Yuki. What do you think ? "

Toshiro: are you saying... The gigai, is her real body ? But she's a first shinigami. They were never alive.

Urahara: unless...

Toshiro ; unless Saiko Enma created a body just for her , so she could have a baby. Hence unregistered. And hence stuck inside. Because your soul recognise your body.

Urahara: of course, this is just my hypothesis.

Toshiro: so ? What does this have to do with anything ?

Urahara: I offered Niko a new gigai that can't be tracked, she insisted on using that one. Where she could be stuck again.

Toshiro: you think there's a reason ?

Urahara: I told her that there was a chance that a part of her was put into your baby Yuki, that's why she was seeing stuff that seemed to belong to her. So I opened your baby Yuki...

Toshiro: you what?!!!

Urahara: aaahh !! Calm down. Yuki is fine. Anyways, I was right, Yuki had something extra and I gave that part to Niko. Like I thought, that part  belong to Niko and had memories she lost.

Toshiro: I see. What else did she see ?

Urahara; she didn't tell me. She just said that this body felt right, that maybe it could give her more clues.

Toshiro ; you think she left to look for her memories. To confirm who she is?

Urahara: maybe. But... She's Niko. You know she sometimes has more than one idea.

Toshiro: I got it. But this is bigger than just her.

Urahara: you mean the soul ripper?

Toshiro: so you know about that too.
