After Sona and Tsubaki left, Kisuke and Yoruichi made their preliminary preparations for today's schedule before the three who are out shopping came back.

Kisuke strengthened the barriers over the secret training ground not only for defense and containment ability but also for concealment. Concealment is of utmost importance since the Grim Reapers still occasionally roams around and both Kisuke and Yoruichi are having a hard time tracking them, even more so when they're unmoving.

Yoruichi looked over the data that Kisuke has gathered from his research on Ki and Mana. She's also making the preparation to diffuse her Reiryoku and Mana and fuse her Ki with Reiryoku, but she wanted to wait for Kisuke's attempt before she tries it because Kisuke specializes in energy manipulation and his insights and experience would be a big help for her and will reduce the risk of something undesirable happening.

The two busied themselves until the trio came back bringing with them some daily necessities, clothes, and some take out food from a certain family restaurant just before lunch.

"We're home."

"Welcome back.~"

"Hmm? Where are the Sitri Princess and her Queen?"

"They went back to their business. They're busy fellows. They also asked me to pass their thanks for the hospitality." Kisuke answered his mother as she took the grocery bags from her and set it on the kitchen counter.

"Is that so? They should have stayed for lunch. Koneko-chan, Aika-chan, help me take out the food and set the table. Kisuke, stop what you're doing and wash your hands, we're having lunch. Uhm, Yoruichi...kun, I bought another set of the meal for you, but can you eat it?"

Kisuke took back the pendants on the table and put it inside his inventory space, "Mom, you don't have to worry about that. Yoruichi, you can transform back."

"Are you sure?" Yoruichi looked at him questionably. Even though it's fine to tell them the truth, they still have to prioritize hiding, at least until they were able to convert their energy source and practice Soul-Ki based Kidou.

"It's fine. I already put up a field that can hide us." Kisuke grinned at Yoruichi waiting for her reaction.

"A barrier? But why can't I feel anything?... Wait... a field?" Yoruichi looked around and felt nothing out of order, she then looked back at Kisuke and saw his annoying grin again. A sudden thought went through Yoruichi's mind and she looked around again in shock, "Did you succeed!?"

"Yep~. Well, in a way." Kisuke took out a black token with complicated inscriptions from his haori and showed it to Yoruichi, "This thing here can simulate how Aizen's Zanpakuto uses Reiryoku to mimic its hypnosis ability. Although it has some drawbacks. First is that it has to simulate the soul inside the Zanpakuto to simulate its ability, but doing that is almost impossible without cutting out a lot of things. Because of that, the ability is incomplete. This token here can produce hypnosis ability with range, time and effectiveness limit. For the range, it's only capable of covering the entire house, the time limit is 2 hours and the token breaks apart and the effectiveness is it only is capable of hiding the true appearance of few individuals."

"Even though I get what you're saying, in practice that should be impossible, or at least that's what I use to think before you took this out. Many people tried to do just that, even before the Seiretei even established by Yamamoto but no one succeeded no matter how much of a genius they are at that time. If we're still in Seiretei, you would probably be invited as one of the Royal Guards." Yoruichi couldn't help but sigh at another crazy thing he invented.

"Really? I thought for sure that they might hunt me down instead."

Yoruichi couldn't deny what he said as that is a real possibility, but there's no point of thinking about any further because they are now living in a different world with different values.

"What are they talking about?" Aika asks the other two after they set down the foods on the table.

"Who knows. But I at least want to understand the things they were saying. Why do they sound like they were a part of an organization in the past? And it doesn't seem like a good one." Sakura answered and wondered. Her son is only 17 years old this year and it's almost impossible for him to join an organization due to his young age much less being a former member. She tried to remember if she noticed anything different from the past that may give her some clue, but all she could think of is that one time when he turned 7 and started acting like a perverted old man, his strange fascination to random things and adapting the black cat which turns out to be a familiar. When her line of thought reached here, she suddenly remembered Kisuke's words just now, "Wait, Kisuke, you said she can transform? Into what? A black panther or something so he can eat easier?"

"Hahaha, no Mom. Not a black panther, but a black beauty." Kisuke flashed a smile to his mother.

Both Sakura and Aika were confused, 'What black beauty? Yoruichi is clearly a man. Wait, could Yoruichi be swinging that way that's why Kisuke describes him as a 'beauty'?... Could it be that he also swin... -!?'

Before they could finish their ridiculous thoughts, Yoruichi suddenly exploded to a puff of smoke. All of them backed away due to this and both Sakura and Aika has confused expression, "What's happening?" Aika asks all of them.

"Yoruichi-san is returning back to her normal appearance," Koneko answered her question and also prepared something on her hand. Unknown to them, Koneko is already holding a harisen**.

**AN: A giant paper fan, usually made in a closed fashion. It is most traditionally used as part of a manzai act, in which the straight man (tsukkomi) smacks the funny man (boke) in response to their jokes or idiocy.

When the smoke disperses, a naked slender and well-endowed woman of average height with dark skin, golden irises, and black waist-length hair appeared behind the smoke which remains, "Greetings, Mom. This is the first time we met while I'm in my normal form..." Yoruichi greeted the master of the house first, 'Calling her 'Mom' when in this form is more embarrassing than I imagined.'

While the two people who don't know anything were dumbfounded at Yoruichi's appearance, A sound of something cutting through the air was heard followed by a loud smack, *Pack!*

"MY EYES!!! Koneko-chan! What the hell was that for!?" They saw Kisuke rolling on the ground while covering his eyes and crying like a baby. The two were dumbfounded yet again, 'What happened?'

"Because you were staring at her butt again. You don't even conceal your gaze." Koneko answered Kisuke's cries as she looks at him with derision as she grips the harisen. Koneko then looked at Yoruichi and said, "Yoruichi-san, you forgot your clothes again. You can't greet Aunty while looking like that."

"Oh, your right. I forgot it again." Yoruichi looked down on her body and snapped her fingers. Clothes suddenly appeared on her body which consist of her usual attire.
