The Fragile Soul and the Death God (Private!)
 

Rukia calmly woke up in the small Kurosaki dwelling. Aizen had been long since defeated, and Ichigo was now away alot in an effort to become a Captain of the Gotei 13. Rukia however, she was still stationed in Karakura, as she was judged able to properly defend the town and herself. She woke up and looked over, Karin Kurosaki had already headed out for soccer practice that day apparently. That left her and Yuzu all alone in the house, as their "father" Isshin was usually doing chores at this time. She gently got up, stretched, and shoke the slightly smaller girl. "Wake up Yuzu." She said plainly, her voice still exhausted with sleep.

yuzu yawned. "rukia..i think i wet the bed again."said yuzu as she stretched and pulled her blankets off, revealing a pull up with the picture showing bright and colorful. she sighed. "why is this happening to me?"asked yuzu as she got up and walked over to her dresser. lately she`d been forced to change out her underwear for diapers cause she had a little accident and had lost her bladder control.plus someone had sent her baby clothes that were in her size and since they had no idea whole it was her father was forcing her to wear them. " i guess i should get cooking breakfast."said yuzu as she had no idea what time it was. she pulled out a new diaper and her favorite purple onsie out of all the baby clothes. she sighed. " rukia you wanna help me get dressed?"asked yuzu. she always needed help gettign into these new clothes, rukia was nice enough to help.

"Sure thing kiddo!" Rukia said as she helped her favorite relative in the Kurosaki family over to the changing table. She helped the young girl up onto the table and ripped the pull up apart at the sides. "It's pretty wet sweety, did you drink anything before bed yesterday?" Rukia asked calmly as she wiped the young girls bottom clean with a warm cloth. She hoisted a new pull-up diaper onto the girl and after a few moments of fiddling with the leg gatherers, the pull-up traing underwear were completely ready to go for the day. Rukia grabbed the babyish soft pink skirt that Yuzu had choosen and wrapped it around her newest friend. She gently pulled a hello kitty tee-shirt, also pink, over Yuzu's head. After Rukia was staisfied, she slipped some socks onto Yuzu's little feets, and helped her put her pink tennis shoes on over them. "There you go baby girl!"

yuzu sighed but blushed. " yep..someone out there still thinks i`m a baby. atleast i got to..."suddenly the door bell rang. yuzu up down and made sure the onsie properly covered her crotch and straightened out the t-shirt she went to the front door...and sighed. it was the same delivery man who had delivered her baby clothes, her new changing table, and her latest set of diapers. "what is it today?"as yuzu. the man looked at his order form. 'um..a crib..a pretty b ig crib. guessing its for you little girl."said the man. yuzu signed for the large box and the man helped her bring it inside the door. yuzu sat against the big box and tried to hold back her tears. she was wetting her pants through the day and night, forced into diapers because of it. was forced to wear baby clothes and use a changing table....now a crib. if only her mother was here. on the counter in the kitchen there was a box full of old bottles with a note on it for rukia from her dad. "dear rukia, ichigo came back tonight, i told him about what was going on with yuzu. he said to just run with the baby stuff and give her a brake from all her "grown up duties" such as cooking, cleaning, and just let her be a baby again. please fill these with milk for starters, her old baby spoon is in there two. please try and convince her to accept this as some kinda vacation. sincerly, ichigo`s dad."

Rukia looked over the note surely, and thought about what an idiot Isshin was for thinking that all of this was OK, simply because Yuzu had started wetting herself in the day again. However, Yuzu had been having some trouble with her motor skills recently as Rukia had taken note of, having troubles drinking from big gril cups. Rukia reluctantly filled the bottles, feeling extremely sorry for the poor young girl who had already been through such a tough life. All of this must have been completely overwhelming to the poor child, and Rukia saw that wise easy. She knew what it looked like to see a poor girl chocking back tears, and Yuzu fit the exact description. Puffy eyes, red nose, lurched forward slightly. Rukia knew that she had to take action where no one else would. She calmly walked over, after filling bottles, and pulled the fragile girl into a tight hug, but not too much to hurt her. She gently stroked Yuzu's hair, "It's going to be Ok Yuzu, you have nothing to worry about." She said as she cooed to the fragile young creature.

yuzu looked up at her. "yeah but...you know dad`s gonna make me sleep in this thing. how am i supposed to get out of it in time to get up, make breakfast, clean the house, all that?"asked yuzu as she looked at the large box.

"Your father actually finally made a good choice and said that you should relax a little while. Though I hate his methods of making you do baby things, you do need a break from all the stuff you usually have to do around the house." Rukia explained as she looked into the younger girls puffy eyes. "I'm in charge is basically what he's said... and until you can start to get your motor control and your bladder control back, he wants you to stay like you are. I would love to let you wear normal clothes and stuff... but Isshin is a captain level shinigami. I'm in no place to question him, lest I invoke his wrath. Now come on, you must be a little hungry." Rukia said as she lead Yuzu into the kitchen.

yuzu blinked. " but...dad isn`t a...fine...well then i guess we should set this up."said yuzu as she let go of rukia and got behind the box and started trying to push it towards the stairs.

((ya know heard both ichigo`s mom AND dad were retired soul reapers...yet isshin never mentions anything, or atleast from what i`ve seen, about knowing ichigo`s a soul reaper or that he once was one himself. isn`t that why grand fisher went after ichigo`s mom?))

a no grand fisher loves the souls of wemon and ichigos mom saved ichigo from grand fisher by getting in the way

oo and sorry just saying why grand fisher killed ichigos mom

"You sure you don't want to get some food first?" Rukia asked calmly, but Yuzu seemed pretty determined to get that darn bed set up. She helped Yuzu move it up the stairs, relatively easy thanks to being a soul reaper, and got it up stairs. she dragged it into their room and kicked Yuzu's old bed out of the way, before taking the seprate parts out. It came in only 7 parts surprisingly. Head board, foot board, two halves of the base, and two side boards, which all connected and stayed put with ease. Rukia slid Yuzu's old matress into it, and within minutes, the bed was set. "There you go kiddo."

(Only his father was. His mother was not, or she would have been able tod efend against the grand fisher, which killed her easily because she couldn't see it or it's lure.)
