**Crevan's POV**

I arrived to where Hōzukimaru was supposed to be. The rocky terrain seemed to be used as a dojo more often than the actually dojo that he created for himself. I stepped over some rocks and headed towards the dojo.

It was a dark grey color with a red roof. I stopped in front of the door hearing bickering, laughter, and swords clashing. I open the door and nearly gag.

The smell was intense, nothing but alcohol and sweat emerged from the building. I stepped away, eyes watering and doing my best to not throw up. When I felt like it was safe enough to peak in, I could see two men laying on the ground.

 One spirit and one shinigami.

Drunk.

I cleared my throat, getting the shinigami to look up at me lazily. He took up quickly and pointed a sword at me. "Who are you?!" He smirked and drunkenly placed his hands on his hips, smiling proudly. 

"Oh wait! I've become so powerful that I now have TWO spirits within my zanpakuto!" He was quick, in a blink of an eye, he had his arm wrapped around my neck. I did my best to hold my breath. 

"Don't be an idiot, Ikkaku." The spirit of the sword sat up lazily but stayed in his spot. "That's Midori's spirit."

Ikkaku released me and backed away quickly, a worried look on his face "You mean to tell me the woman I slept with is actually a man?!" He pointed at me, accusing me and I was getting annoyed. 

'She chose to be with a moron....'

"HER ZANPAKUTO'S SPIRIT!"

It was an awkward silence. I cleared my throat and bowed. "My name is Crevan, I am indeed the spirit of Midori's Zanpakuto."

"Why are you here?" I look up to see who I assumed was Hōzukimaru. He definitely looked like a brute. I pulled out the envelope that I stored in my belt. "I am here to deliver a letter to Ikkaku." I glance towards the shinigami who stared at me sternly.

"It's about Midori." He walked up to be and snatched the letter, tearing it up and looking at it.

**Ikkaku's POV**

I ripped open the letter. My hands were shaking due to being nervous. 'It's been over a month since I last saw her. I hope she's okay....' 

I unfolded the neatly folded letter and immediately started reading.

Ikkaku,

I hope this gets to you. I haven't heard or seen you since you went back to the Soul Society and I'm not sure if you're still alive or not. And let me tell you what, this is not ideal for me to tell you like this.

I'm pregnant

I immediately stopped reading and looked up at Crevan. "She's pregnant....?" I whispered out in shock. Crevan just nodded his head. Hōzukimaru on the other hand, hit my back so hard I face planted.

"Congrats buddy! I didn't know you had it in ya! Or the matter of the fact to get a girl to like you long enough!"

I sat up and crossed my legs as I continued reading.

My first appointment is in two days. I hope this letter reaches out to you before then. And hopefully, you'll be there.

-Midori

I glance up, staring at the two spirits in front of me. "I'm leaving and bringing this to the Head Captain right away. She can't do this alone....no....I won't let her do this alone!"

I open my eyes and stood up from the stump I was meditating on. 

"Don't worry Midori. I'll be there for you and our child."
