She was unsure what Ichigo was apologizing for exactly so he shrugged her shoulders brushing it off as if it was nothing, it's not like she had said anything important so it didn't really matter. When he mentioned Rukia though she glanced over, she had not seen her in awhile. Sad really she missed the girl but she knew she had a duty to do and her alliance was with Soul Society. Still she wished Rukia got to come to Karakura Town more, maybe if she ever got the chance she could talk to Byakuya about letting her come more often though knowing him he wouldn't allow it.
Ana watched the house for a moment and then shook her head "Nothing" she added sighing a little "Which means whatever it is knows how to cloak itself right?" she added before huffing. "We're going to do something fun after this right?" She was all up for helping someone, no question about it though she wanted to do something fun at least once today.
Looking to Ichigo she nodded her head "Alright let's do this. Hide your body somewhere safe" she said before walking up to the front door and knocked a few times. Though she quickly tried to think of a reason as to why she came back especially if she couldn't see Ichigo but if she could see Ichigo it would make coming up with an excuse a bit easier.

Ichigo noticed Ana glance to him when he mentioned Rukia he frowned a little ''Let me guess, Rukia...you miss her...'' he began. Everyone always asked him if he missed her like they were joint at the hip or something Keigo kept on persistently asking him if he was ok with her never visiting or living in the human world anymore, he'd of course deny it all, way he saw it she had her duties elsewhere and he was still human their little adventures had to come to an end eventually, but it would be nice to see her.
His eyes moved onto the house before Ana confirmed she got nothing either, well that was baffling, there was definatly a cause for concern that Ana and him had witnessed they weren't imagining it. He ndded at Ana's conclusion ''That's what thought of too...so if they are capable of that then they must be experienced and highly trained to be able to conceal a load of spirit energy'' he said. He turned his head to look at Ana again, she really wanted to do something fun ''Well you can think of something to do after we dealt with this...'' he said but only because he couldn't think of something right now.
He nodded in agreement they had to put this right it was his responsibility seeing as he was the substitute of this town but he couldn't do it alone.
Aprroaching the house Ichigo stopped round the side of the woman's property reaching for his badge and pressing it to his chest pushing his soul form out the other side his human body instantly becoming lifeless. He picked up his body and looked round ''Uh...ah jeez...umm'' he began looking round before he just flung it in a bush. ''That will do'' he said and glanced to Ana.

"Of course I miss her, she's my friend, how could I not" Ana added looking down and shrugged her shoulders. "I know she has a duty and all but... seriously they need like holidays or something. It would be nice if she showed up for a bit" So Ana thought anyway. Rukia had a certain way about her, she might have been small but she was tough, Ana liked that about her, how she cared about others and was able to keep people in line, how she had her weaknesses and made jokes even if they didn't always make sense. She brought this light with her when she was around... maybe that was just from Ana's point though.
Ana looked to Ichigo and smiled "I got a few ideas" she said, though if Ichigo would find them fun was another matter. She then went a bit serious "How about though we deal with this problem first" she added looking back to the house, better to get this out of the way first, help this woman, deal with the souls.
She had never actually seen Ichigo hide his body but the very fact he just kind of flung his own physical form was a bit surprising, honestly now. After the moment of shock she shook her head a little and knocked on the door again. "Hello?" she called wondering what was going on. "So how we playing this? I distract her and you go to the basement or..." she whispered to Ichigo not sure where he was going to start. Ana could always snoop the basement out if she got the chance while Ichigo hunted one of the souls down, he must have seen them upstairs or something as she had not seen any.
"If this does result in a fight... remember it's in someone's home so try not to break too much" she added quietly in other words telling him not to use his Bankai, she'd seen the destruction that could cause.

Ichigo blinked hearing Ana wished Rukia would come back, he sighed ''She will every now and then...next time she does ill let you know'' he said. Ok so maybe he did miss Rukia a tiny bit but not her terrible drawings, never ever would he want to see one of those poor excuse of drawing.
''You do?'' he suddenly changed the subject she seemed to have plenty of ideas, now he began to think what did Ana do for fun ''Alright, ok whatever guess i'll go along with it then'' he said before he nodded in more seriousness they still had a task at hand.
He never really sound the best of hiding places for his own body, just anywhere would do as long as no one spotted him looking like he was dead then his body would probably get carted off into the nearest hospital leaving him trying to somehow get it back and convince doctors he was just fine. He waited as Ana knocked on the door he stood beside Ana to see if this woman could see him immediately in soul form. ''Yeah something like that I need some time to look around...ok got it no damage...I can do that...easy'' he said not all that convincing before the door opened and the woman looked at Ana and then Ichigo she panicked and went to shut the door before Ichigo realised she could see him he moved forwards catch hold of the door stopping it from shutting. ''What do you want..'' she said. Ichigo looked to Ana then back to the woman ''You can see me....that explains some things'' he began. ''Were not your neighbours we will listen to you'' he reassured her.

"You better" she said to Ichigo, if she found out Rukia had come by and Ichigo had not informed her well then... would give her another excuse to beat him up now wouldn't it. No she wouldn't beat him up, probably snap at him and be angry at him, she wasn't about to go beat someone up for no good reason now.
And yes Ana did, well sort of, she could think of like two things, who knew if he would like them or not, she had no idea either way that couldn't be the focus at the moment, the house and the woman inside had to be. So Ana knocked before whispering to Ichigo how they'd go about this. Better to be on the same page and all.
She wasn't so sure about that but she was willing to see if he could actually do a task like this and not cause damage, would be a good test to say the least. Ana simply observed Ichigo for a moment and nodded her head once before the door opened and then started shutting again. "Hey" Ana said as Ichigo grabbed the door.
"We're here to help. This is what we do..." Ana said peering over Ichigo's shoulder at the woman giving her a smile "You just need to trust us. There is something here isn't there, something wrong right? We can get rid of it for you. You just need to let us in. I promise we're not going to hurt you we just want to talk, that's it." Ana could talk while Ichigo snooped, she just needed Ichigo to open the door a little more so they could sneak past so she poked Ichigo in the back as if to tell him to open the door up more.

Ichigo had started to think up ways he could try and diffuse any sudden violent situations without causing damage to the woman's house. He could really swing his zanpakuto around in this house he'd catch the celling or something. ''Ill try not to if I can help it'' he said but he couldn't give it anymore thought because thw woman had opened up her door and tried to shut it again. Had this woman seen shinigami before, was she aware of what he or even Ana were the moment she saw his attire.
He watched the woman as she looked down a little just visible behind the door that Ichigo held open just about. She listened to Ana explaining that they weren't the enemy and wanted to help. She lifted her head up looking at them both before she nodded and Ichigo suddenly felt a poke in his back he quickly looked round but sighed with relief that it was just Ana. He pushed harder on the door and the woman gave in opening it up further.
''Arent you bad people'' she said as she walked back inside her house followed by Ichigo who frowned ''Bad? no'' he said had she maybe seen Shinigami and assumed they are bad. ''Other side of that...'' he said. ''But I always see the dead in those robes...getting rod of ghosts...'' she said. She had it all wrong but she was only going by what she saw. ''Come to think of it aren't you guys dead aswell then?'' she queried. ''Were not dead...but we do know a thing or two about spirits...'' Ichgo told her. ''I have so many of them in here they rule my home'' she said. ''Mind if I look around?'' Ichigo asked she shook her head ''No...im just relieved I can talk to someone about this who can help'' she said.

It was good to know, if Ichigo did damage to the house how was he going to fix it exactly but that was hopefully not an issue they would have to worry about. Though the way the woman reacted when she had seen Ichigo had Ana a little worried, what had she seen Shinigami do exactly?
When she poked Ichigo she gave him a small look, a slight smile but also a 'hurry up' expression, the problem was inside not outside. Judging by his sigh though she had to wonder if he thought she was suddenly someone else which caused her to frown a little.
Shutting the door behind her as they headed in Ana shook her head "We're not bad people at all" she added backing Ichigo up but she could understand the woman's confusion. Seeing Shinigami and them getting rid of souls one would assume they were bad and harming the souls of the dead if they did not understand what the true reason was. So as Ichigo looked around Ana walked over to the woman to explain. "People like Ichigo don't harm the souls, they send them off to the afterlife, normally the souls then reconnected with family on that end and can live there. If a soul is left in this world for too long, things can become complicated" Ana added before waving her hands.
"Oh but you wont have to worry about that. Can you tell me though where most of the spirits reside in your house?" the fact she claimed they ruled her house was not a good thing, they needed to move on and not linger it was not healthy for them or the woman. "Oh you probably have questions yourself though. I'll do my best to help you out, that's why I'm here, to talk" she added as Ichigo certainly wasn't going to talk so that was left to Ana, the more information she could get then relay to Ichigo the easier this should hopefully be.

The woman had very much got the wrong end or wrong information strangely black was seen as the more sinister force and white being its opposite. Some even compared Sinigami to a grim reaper could be seen as a dangerous spirit especially for a human who could see ghosts things probably already seemed unbelievable and now he and Ana showed up.
Ichigo see Ana had diverted the woman's attention onto her leaving Ichigo to seek out these ghosts, and his first place was upstairs where he first saw ghosts about. Walking down he tried to focus on the energy around and that barrier felt strong it blocked Ichigo as if it defiantly didn't want the ghosts to be sensed. He figured there was someone much bigger behind this. Who were these ghosts?
The woman nodded to Ana ''Ah I understand a bit now...just I see them running about here and carry weapons of all sorts...'' she said. ''So you two help the souls...'' she asked. She gathered Ichigo now had the task of sending them all to rest. ''So that's what he's doing up there now....so they will all be going'' she sounded pleased.
However it didn't seem so easy as using konso on the ghosts like he normally would and it wasnt long before he saw some spirits. Approaching 2 ghosts Ichigo reached for his longer sword and flipped it over to the hilt ''You've been hanging round here way too long'' he said as he attempted a konso only his zampakuto hit a shield over the ghost. ''What?'' Ichigo questioned. He put his Zangetsu beside him and laid his hand flat on a layer of spirit energy surrounding the ghosts. ''Hey, Ana! come take a look at this'' he called out.

Right weapons. She didn't have to worry about those. There was a very good reason why they carried them but if the women had not seen Hollows then there was no need to explain why Shinigami had weapons now was there.
Nodding her head Ana smiled a little "Yes. That his job. He sends the souls to the next life and I distract anything that might come after the souls. He's very good at it, he'll do whatever it takes to free you and this house of the spirits lingering inside" she added. Of course Ana didn't mention the problem they were having with sensing the souls, Ana still could not feel any of them, she couldn't even see any downstairs at the moment.
Ana looked up and frowned a little "Ah excuse me for a moment" she added as she hurried up the stairs "What?" she called out as she looked around and spotted Ichigo by two souls. Walking over she stood beside him and watched the souls frowning a little as Ichigo's hand seemed to be resting on an energy source around the souls. "Now that's interesting. I've never seen that before" she added eyes curious, tapping her chin.
She looked at the soul "Hey are you doing that or something else?" she asked before looking to Ichigo "If it's a shield of sorts I might be able to break through it, no promises though" she added looking back to the soul.

The woman seemed to understand well as much as she could she just had to believe them because they were the only ones who had tried to help her with this and all other shinigami couldn't sense the spirits in the house. ''So...does that mean that heaven exsists!?'' she was all so curious now that she had some real spiritual beings in her home. ''Is there a hell too....'' she said it sounded like there very well could be. ''Whats it like?'' she asked Ana but maybe she was firing way too many at her.
She suddenly heard Ichigo call out to Ana, was that promising? ''Is everything ok?'' she said seeing Ana go off upstairs.
She then looked around and felt someone watching here a small girl ghost in the corner, made her uncomfortable. Ichigo had tried a Konso and no such luck he looked round to Ana ''You seeing this?'' he said looking to the force field around them. The reiatsu was heavy and dense he tried to trace it, blue in colour. ''Good idea...'' Ichigo said hearing Ana say she could shatter it seeing as shields were her expertise. But then again this was an entirely different thing. The two ghosts shook their heads, it wasnt their doing ''A Quincy'' one said to Ichigo's surprise.
''Damn Quincies...they got some kind of new technique to do this...'' he said before he looked around wondering if there were Quincies watching the house, if so then they could be on their way seeing as Ana and Ichigo had rumbled their reaitsu hanging atound two ghosts. ''I don't get it...why put a shield around spirits? what would they gain from that?'' Ichigo said to Ana. ''just try it see if it does anything'' he said hopefully it would crack it at least.
