The Explaination.
[ooc: Takes place after this. And Shura ROCKS.]
I've asked Toyako again, and he explained it to me after numerous shoutings and screamings. Essencially, I've turned Tyke into something like a shinigami as well - Ukitake should be able to tell you more about that. I've given about one-third of my own energy to revive him and make him into what he is now. The body is still flesh; its still a living body, but his soul is... detachable, to put it in a simple term. He might get some spiritual abilities and other shinigami-related stuff, but rest assured he'll never have a zanpaktou. The energy I gave to him is mainly to support his life. You could say he's a fox-version of Ichigo Kurosaki.
...I guess I might need to explain what really happened when he came upon me.
I was training then with Toyako when the kit came. Nothing happened to him, just a little exhausted after all his running and stuff. I decided to look after it, since it seemed so... well, tame, I guess. Then later on in the night, something... happened during my bankai training that caused the explosion in the forest and sent some of the nearby animals on a rampage. Unfortunately, there was a bear near where I was training, and the explosion frightened it and sent it rampaging into where I was. I decided to hold my ground and fight the bear until it calmed down, but then in the midst of battle the bear somehow became more agitated and that's where things got bad.
As I said, I was training, so I hadn't been really getting a lot of rest and I wanted to finish the battle quickly before I got exhausted. So... I pretty much got serious and as I battled the bear, Tyke suddenly leapt out from the bushes after his wandering and in a daze, I struck him. It wasn't that bad at first, just a wound that the onsen could heal, but then the bear got beserk from the blood and started to attack Tyke. I did all I can, and I permenantly put the bear down for good, but by then it had already gotten through with Tyke. I was... desperate. So I did the only thing in my mind - I stuck Toyako through him and gave him some of my own reiatsu, thus making him the way he is now.
What can I say? Tyke's not really alive, but he's not really dead either. I had hoped that I could keep this from you, since I saw you so concerned over him and thought that it wouldn't be good if I told you something like this. I'm sorry for lying to you like that, but I thought that it was for the best. He's actually okay somewhat - he might have some spiritual abilities and maybe can now see ghosts, but I dunno. Toyako said they might not manifest, so there's a chance that Tyke can be as normal as... he possible can right now.
...again, I'm sorry, Okita-ku--- Okita. I really tried my best to protect him; but evidently, I've failed myself as a smaurai
I'm scared. I don't want to say it, but I'm scared. I'm starting to hear this voice mocking and taunting me in my head. Is it supposed to be my inner hollow or something?! What did I do to get it - I didn't go through Urahara-san's training or anything... was it because of my impromptu bankai? I don't know what's happening to me... hopefully, when I do get to battle with Hitsugaya, I might find some answers... hopefully.
Also, sorry about what happened the other time, Zura. I hope you can forgive me.
Despite everything, the curse still works on me, huh...

The street seems so alluringly
where the girls' territory
Their sorrowful pigtails
are flickering in a whirlwind
The annoying temptation...
...and the smell of flowbuds.
On an afternoon with no clouds in the sky;
My carnage begins to clamor on the war zone.
These burning thoughts add to my piling sadness
As I find equivalent senses, I hang my head.
One: somebody please...
Two: put out my fire.
Three: and let me fly;
Four: Yeah, yeah
A shot ran through my heart
I felt shock of ELECTRICITEIT
Seductive eyelashes
Somehow I have got laziness
These smouldering thoughts add to my piling sadness
As the memories of that day fade, I grow up.
One: please somebody
Two: set me on fire
Three: and burn me
Four: Yeah, yeah
