Time has not been too kind to Urahara Shop. After the death of most of it's staff during the war, dust has collected on just about everything inside, and wood began to rot.
Historically, the shop was the foremost in equipment dealing for shinigami who chose not to reside in Sereitei under their jurisdiction.
About a week ago, Jinta, one of Kisuke's crew, began trying to bring the old place back to life, and is making decent progress. Jinta's plan is to restore the shop to its former glory, and serve as an earth-centric resistance force against the recent surges of hollow activity.

A few minutes after he left the battle, Kaosu found himself in the depths of the outskirts of Karakura, searching very board for a sign of Urahara shop. Instead of his destination though, all he'd been able to find were a couple of thugs who thought it would be a good idea to attack him.
"Are you gunna give us your s**t or do we have to take it from ya?" threatened one, the second on Kaosu's opposite side. WHen he didn't answer, the thieves thought that was their cue to try and take Kaosu's things by force. A hard punch came swiftly towards Kaosu's face, and was swiftly diverted past, and the thug halted as Kaosu's fingers dug between his ribs and pushed off, sending him stumbling back.
In came the second hit, aimed for Kaosu's stomach. That one quickly turned into a deft flip of the criminal, sending him crashing through a boarded up building. The calamity alerted an old man inside the building across the street, and he seemed thoroughly pissed about the noise.
"Sensei?" . . .

"It's about time you found the place, Kaosu-kun," the man chuckled before turning to reenter the shop. "Come, I have something to give you."
This was all pretty damn random, but sensei had been a part of Kaosu's life for as long as he could remember, and so he followed suit. He noted the sign above the door that read "U| 4haR^" which he took to be a work out version of "Urahara", the name sensei had given him not long before.
"I know you're pressed for time, so I'll just get right to it, Kaosu-kun . . . these are Damashikote. I'll explain what they are in time, but for now, just know that they will solve your problem at the school." At least sensei was being really direct about it. As he spoke, he opened a case to reveal two gloves that would cover from the fingertips down to just a few inches away from the elbows, and had a strange insignia that he had never seen before.
"Now go, use them to fend off the hollows . . . good luck."

Kaosu nodded, knowing that he could trust sensei, even if he had no idea what he was being entrusted with. "Hai . . . sensei . . ."
Without a single word more, Kaosu walked out the door, looking off towards the school. He would finally be able to help, and to actually do something about these fiendish things that kept popping up.
That thought in mind, he headed on his way towards Karakura High.

In the time it took to reach the outskirts of town, Kaosu had remembered that Sensei referred to the masked things as Hollows, which of course made Kintaro's statement about Stark make sense.
"OI, Sensei! You still here?" Kaosu called as he pushed open the door to Urahara Shop with his foot.
"Ah, Kaosu-kun . . . and you brought friends this time! How did it go, hm?"
A tall slender man with gray everything exclaimed with a carefree attitude as he saw Kaosu arrive with a guy on his shoulder and another following behind. He emerged from a door in the back where one could spot a bed in the distance. It as as if he had anticipated Stark's condition, and arrival.
"Come, come, bring him in and set him there," he instructed, pointing ot the bed.
Kaosu did as instructed and felt Stark's forehead one more time, and his fever was significantly lowered somehow. It would be a while before they found out it was Kaosu's touch that had done that much.
"So, Sensei . . . what exactly is going on here?"
"Sit out there . . . I'll explain soon."

Kaosu wouldn't know it but his touch had helped a lot, it seemed the kid might have some kind of latent healing powers. But without the contact with Kaosu the fever rapidly returned, the seal between stark and the hollow was weak. He was losing, after all these years his body was losing, it depressed him, as a battle now raged in his subconscious.

Ketsueki, after dealing with the hollows before they had reached the middle school, found her self walking along a street when she noticed a presence that she could not tell what it was other then a bit of human to it, the rest seemed like it was being suppressed. She walked over to an old looking shop, after deciphering the sign she remembered something an old looking spirit had sad, “Urahara’s shop, oddly I feel like investigating,” and with that she opened the door. “Hello anyone here?”

 Kentaro entered behind everybody, quiet, as was his usual when around more than one person. He was worried about Stark, but was unaware of what he could do to help. If only his powers allowed him to permanently remove Riatsu from a body, he'd be fine, and could help. But until then, he'd have to wait. He ignored the girl coming in, and continued to watch.

"Yes of course, My Dear girl, of course someone is here!" Sensei chortled as he poked his head out the door into the front room. "Just a moment."
Sensei grabbed Kaosu's gloves and unsnapped the soul society emblems from the wristguards, pulling them away and sticking them to Stark's forehead with a bit of medical tape. Kaosu was beyond confused, but he let Sensei work as usual. Between the two of them, they made sure there was enough slack for Kaosu to sit just outside the door on a chair Sensei set up for him. "There you are . . . just sit there, and your friend's fever should stay down." Not to mention Stark's human side would feel an intense advantage against the hollow half of him.
Kaosu did as he was told and awaited patiently the explanation that would come soon.
((Alright, I need to go to bed so I can wake up rested for school tomorrow. Sorry to leave, but I must. TTFN, Ta Ta for now!))

He did fell better, and was doing better in the very real struggle to keep the seal closed. In his mind he stood in a large open room with shackles on one wall. Just in front of those shackles stood a pale version of himself wearing all white. Both of them had fists balled, and now that he felt better a literal fight started, they battled for dominance of the bleak world they lived in.

Azami was outside of the shop where the others had taken Edward. She was standing a little ways off and stared at the mysterious place intently. Who or what were these people? They had special powers, but why? Come to think of it, she didn't really know why her family had these powers either. She assumed it was a genetic thing and it went back to their beliefs back in the older times which as her superstitious grandparents told her, "Our family was blessed by the Gods to be better than all other families." Something along those lines.
Azami built up the nerve and decided to take a risk. She walked up to the door and knocked upon the wood and waited for a response.

Ketsueki waited patiently for owner. “Ok, no need to hurry,” she called back to the oldish looking man. She heard the knock on the door behind her, and thought to herself, guess this place is busy today, I saw three high schoolers come in here before but I didn’t get a good look at them. “Hay mister you’ve got another guest.” ketsueki opened the door, “I do believe this is a shop, I think you don’t need to knock,” she said politely to the person.

"Um...sorry. I didn't realize. I've never seen this shop before. Um...I think one of my friends is here, and I was searching for him," Azami apologized to the girl before her as she bowed respectfully.

"well I’d talk to the owner about your friend, I’m only here as a curios visitor," ketsueki said to the high schooler while opening the door wider and making a gesture to invite her in.
