Third POV

"Ichigo~!"

Isshin yelled as he kicked Ichigo in his stomach once he had opened the front door making the teen fall to the ground holding his stomach. Sakura had her eyes closed with a smile as Haru stood next to her starring at the man in wonder as Yoruichi was on his head looking down at Ichigo.

"Hey there Isshin. I brought my son Haru if that's okay with you?"

Said man looked over at Sakura standing there with a little boy standing next to her with a black cat with golden eyes on his head. Sakura smirked as she opened her eyes showing the same golden eyes instead of green. Isshin shook his head with an amused smile before going back to his goofy self.

"Sakura, we're were you this morning?! Did my idiot son of mine take you into his room to take aventage of y- ugh!"

The three blinked as Ichigo kicked his dad in head.

"Shut up will ya! Get your head out of the gutter, pervert!"

Ichigo yelled with a light pink blush on his cheeks. Sakura and Haru walked inside the house closing the door behind them as Yoruichi went to sit on the armrest of the couch.

"Where's Yuzu and Karin?"

Ichigo asked looking over at his dad who got off the floor.

"They both went to a friends house for a sleepover tonight. They'll be back by noon tomorrow."

He said as he walked into the kitchen.

"That's to bad. I wanted to say goodbye to them before I left."

Sakura sighed as she looked down at Haru to stood next Yoruichi.

"Your leaving!? Why is because of Ichigo?!"

"W-what?! Don't bring me into this!"

"You should stop playing around Isshin. I have my memories back and I remember you clearly, captain."

Sakura smirked at him.

"Alright, alright, you got me but what surprised me the most was to find out you were here in the first place."

Isshin said walking out the kitchen with a tray with four cups of tea and a bowl with milk. Yoruichi came and jumped on the table as the bowl of milk was placed on the table.

"Yes, I couldn't leave her in the Seireitei knowing Saku wasn't safe there anymore."

Yoruichi said in a male voice before started drinking her milk.

"It's a good thing too. It's also a good thing you weren't here for the Winter War that was pretty bad. Lost a lot of Shinigami because of that." He said taking a sip of his drink.

"It was that bad, huh." Sakura mumbled to herself. After a few minutes of talking Sakura and Ichigo went upstairs.

------------------------------------------------

"I'm going to miss this town once I leave."

"Your not going to come back?" Ichigo asked as he starred at Sakura who had stepped into his room after taking a shower. She was now dressed in all black. A loose long sleeve v-neck shirt and black sweats and socks.

"It'll be sometime but hopefully I can come back before Christmas." She smiled the orange haired teen before putting her shoes back on.

"How long will it take for you to get your powers back?"

"Hard to say. After I transformed into my Shinigami form I had gotten them back to kill the Hollow. Now that I'm back in this gigai I feel like it'll take sometime, so, don't worry about me, strawberry. I heal pretty fast." She smiled as Ichigo scowled at her with a blush.

"So where's Kon? I thought I say goodbye to him as well."

"Who knows? Kon does what he wants." Ichigo shrugged as he laid on his bed, tucking his arms under his head with his eyes closed. Sakura ran her fingers threw her hair getting the knots out before standing up and sat on the bed looking at Ichigo.

"Ichigo..."

The teen opened his eyes looking up at the pinkette. He noticed that she looked worried. He sat up looking at his friend.

"What's the matter, Saku?"

"Can you do me a favor, Ichigo?"

"Yeah, sure, anything."

"Can you watch over Haru? Maybe visit him sometime? I know Yoruichi will be staying here, maybe bring Orihime and the others to play with him?"

She asked looking at him with her golden eyes. He remembers how she was with the little boy when she didn't have her memories.

"Yeah, don't worry about Haru. The guys and I will visit him when we can. So you can go back to the Soul Society without worrying so much."

He said ruffling her hair. She pouted at the notion but sighed.

"Thank you, Ichigo."

"No problem, Sakura."

She smiled at him making him smile. She lightly blushed because of his smile. She hugged the teen making him blush this time as the pinkette hugged him without a second thought.

"S-s-Sakura? W-wha-what are y-you d-doing?"

"Thank you, Ichigo."

Ichigo couldn't help but smile at this. He placed his right hand on her head as he leans back on his left that held him up.

------------------------------------------------

Sakura, Yoruichi, Haru and Ichigo along with the others stood in front of the senkaimon that would head to the Soul Society.

"Alright, it's almost ready!" Kisuke yelled.

"Haru."

Sakura called out to the little boy who she considers her son. The boy had tears in his eyes a few falling down his face. She kneeled down as she held out her arms, Haru instantly ran into her arms crying in her shirt. Sakura held him close to her with her eyes shut tight to keep the tears from falling.

"I want you to behave while I'm gone, okay?"

She felt him nod into her shoulder. She hesitantly let go of him, she opened her eyes starring at her son. She didn't want to go but she needs too.

"I'll be back before Christmas. I'll see if I can bring you back something, alright?"

"O-okay." Haru sniffed.

"Sakura, it's time go." Byakuya called out. Again Haru eyes started tearing up. Sakura gave Haru a sad smile before placing a kiss on his forehead. She stood up only for him to hug her legs. She looked up at Ichigo and her friends. Orihime already had tears in her eyes when she walked up to them as she kneeled down.

"Haru, it's time for Sakura to go."

"No!"

Sakura sighed as he held on tight to her leg. She bend down placing her forehead against Haru's as she whispered once she was done Haru fell into her arms. She picked him up giving Haru to Orihime.

"Orihime, I want to thank you."

"Me? Why thank me?"

"Because you were the first friend I had when I didn't have my memories. So, thank you for that." She smiled at Orihime.

"Y-your welcome, Saku." Orihime gave the pinkette an eyes closed smile making her tears fall from her eyes. Sakura smiled too before going to where Byakuya was standing next to the other captains and lieutents. Rangiku hand a red glove on before thrusting her hand threw Sakura's chest. The gigai fell into Rangiku's arms as Sakura dressed in a white kimono fell into Byakuya's arms. She was out cold. Soon a group of Hell Butterflies came from the opening of the gate.

"We'll be going now." Tōshirō said looking over at the group.

"Take care of my sister Byakuya. I don't want to go over there and hear that Sakura is upset." Yoruichi said as she sat on Kisuke's shoulder looking at the Kuchiki noble. He looked at her before waking into the gate with Sakura in his arms. The others went in behind them leaving Sakura's gigai with Jinta and Ururu.

"She'll be back soon." Kisuke said.
