Absolute Truths

 

 

Ichigo clashed blades with Asuna and they were whirling around at blinding speeds. He was determined to beat Grimmjow but Asuna had plans to do it first. Mizuki was not doing well and she knew that Byakuya knew and Karu knew. She felt helpless and she watched those around fall into despair. She had no explanations for anything and it was weighing down her own soul. Ichigo grabbed her and they dropped their blades. His fingers ran along her lips and kissed them and sucked one into her mouth. He was entranced and he was feeling more then he thought possible. It had started out as lust and genuine admiration and it had turned to passion. Now it was amazing love mixed with intense desire to keep her and Hinata safe.

 

“I'm sorry you're feeling turmoil.” He said softly.

 

“You are beginning to hear my thoughts more.” She said amazed.

 

“Yeah, it is pretty cool. What can I do Asuna?” he asked.

 

“Be here and do not die.” She said softly.

 

“I'm a stubborn ass. I'm not going anywhere.” He stated with intense emotion.

 

“Good.” She smiled.

 

“I'm sorry I was such a jerk to your friend. I know you two grew up together. You know I'd love to see pictures of you when you were considered a teenage inu.” He said smirking.

 

“I can show you some. Come with me. My sire and grandsire liked to have likenesses around the palace. My father keeps a particular one of me in the study inside of the palace.” She said taking his hand.

 

“Cool!” he said smiling.

 

She ported them inside of the palace and knocked on the shoji and her father called out. He still ruled the inu within the modern Japanese borders. Instead of the Western Lands; it was his entire people. He looked up and nodded. He looked at Ichigo and then looked back down. Her mother was reading by him and she smiled at Ichigo.

 

“Hello Miss Orlovich.” Ichigo stated respectfully.

 

“Hello dear boy. There is the picture over there.” She said without looking up.

 

Ichigo looked surprised but did not think too much of it and he moved over to a likeness of Asuna and Osamu. There was a series where the two were painted together and each separately. His love was in a reclined position and she wore formal kimono of the time. Her kimono set off her hair and it was blue and silver. He touched the painting and he looked in awe

 

“How old were you?” he asked softly.

 

“She was thirty seven.” Sesshomaru answered from his seat.

 

“You had bangs!” he smiled.

 

“Do not remind me.” She said frowning.

 

“She was and is the most beautiful bitch in the West.” Her father said.

 

Asuna turned red and looked down. Osamu had a very sensuous smirk on his face and Ichigo got a closer look at his mate's twin.

 

“We were trouble. There is one of Yuudai, me, and Osamu in the gallery.” She said taking his arm.

 

He went with her and stared at the three young inu as they were at his age now. Asuna was flanked by the two males and he drifted down to one where she had a fang.

 

“That was my fang Kumosaiga. I have it again since Yuzuna's death.” She said softly.

 

He looked further and saw one of her pups before Ayana was born. He clearly saw twin boys, Mizuki, Nori, Ken'ichi, Hana, Ang Chi, and Zihao. He looked at her and she was misty eyed.

 

“The identical twins were Hiroto and Kazuo. They were my first born and Sheng's sons. The younger twins were killed with Hiroto and Hana on the same day. That is Ken'ichi and he was Yuudai's son.” She said touching the picture.

 

“I'm so sorry.” He said feeling her pain.

 

“Kazuo ended up hating me. He blamed me for his twin's death and Hana's as well. I ended up having to kill Sheng.” She said in a hoarse tone.

 

“Asuna.” He stated softly.

 

“Make love to me.” She whined softly.

 

He knew the way to her room and he pulled her along. She always seemed to need physical affection when she was emotionally charged. He made love to her slowly and he saw tears fall from her eyes. He wished he could help. He wished he could make it better.

Perro was in the world of the living and his life before had become very clear the more he was exposed to the pictures. He had wronged Mizuki badly but he had been in love with her. He had done the worst thing possible but he was no longer her brother and he had more then enough power to subdue her. He had to find the twin. He knew he would wither into madness again without the twin. He had come to find out that Kazuo had another inu sister that Grimmjow had killed. He intended to make the feline like Arrancar pay for that but he could care less if the bastard went after the whore that at one time had been his mother. Unbelievable hatred for that onna tore him up still. He stood before a shrine in Shenyang, China and saw the kanji. He was shocked his sire from his inu life was not in fact a hollow. He knew where she was and he produced the garganta and moved to Tokyo. The mortals could not see him and he moved with grace into a building that she must reside in. He again produced the gate and made it into her penthouse. She was on the couch and two males jumped up. He remembered the kumo and he was on him and began tearing at him.

 

“Stop! Do not hurt him!” Mizuki screamed.

 

“Defiled you! He defiled you!” Perro snarled.

 

“You defiled her you stupid inu trash!” Karu hissed.

 

Mizuki backed up and Byakuya pushed her back. Perro looked over at the shinigami and rage stole through him. He crushed the kumo's throat and Mizuki yelled. Byakuya pulled his zanpakuto and uttered scatter. Mizuki made it to Karu and Perro stared back at her. She ported with Karu to the hospital and she left him to Shinobu and Nanami. She ported back and Byakuya was actually bloodied and she saw a nasty dark zanpakuto of the Arrancar.

 

“Do not hurt him! He is innocent and has nothing to do with it. Stop please.” She begged.

 

Perro saw the hurt look in her face and he yelled loudly. Byakuya had no intentions of loosing to a hollow and he shunpoed and it appeared as if he had barely moved. Perro had been cut open and he realized the shinigami must at least be captain level. He channeled his cero through his hand and the shinigami tried to move but he was blasted outward of the building.

 

“No!” she screamed as he grabbed her.

 

“Do not Mizuki. He is shinigami and will survive.” He growled.

 

“I will not leave!” she snarled at him.

 

“Hai you will.” He growled menacingly.

 

“I have a baby!” she snapped.

 

“Whose?” he growled.

 

“Byakuya's.” she replied.

 

“You bore the kumo a son as well did you not?” he said stalking her.

 

“Hai. That was before you died.” She said as tears streamed down her face.

 

“Do not cry.” He said wiping her tears.

 

“Why did you turn into this? Why could you not move on?” she asked in a pained whisper.

 

“I committed a terrible crime. I hurt you terribly.” He admitted.

 

“Hai but I forgave you.” She said whimpering.

 

“No you did not. You would never my Beautiful Moon. You appeared strong but you were fragile.” He sneered.

 

“Then why come back? Did you not have enough? You took me twice again!” she hissed.

 

“I still have my telepathy Mizuki. You wanted it! You screamed for me!” he said coming closer.

 

She stared at him in anger and her hands shook.

 

“Call someone for the baby.” He said in a horrendous growl.

 

She picked up her phone and within minutes Ayana stepped in. Her face blanched when she saw who it was. Her face held shock and Maki was behind her.

 

“Kazuo.” She muttered.

 

“Get Yuji.” Mizuki begged.

 

“Zuki?” Ayana said nervously.

 

Maki pulled his zanpakuto and Ayana yelled.

 

“He is a hollow!” he snapped.

 

“More than a hollow shinigami. What has this family come to that they bed and mate shinigami!” he yelled.

 

“Better then a hollow!” Maki retorted.

 

“Please get Yuji.” She begged.

 

“No!” Byakuya said from the window as blood poured down his face.

 

“You grow tiresome shinigami.” Perro stated.

 

“You are vermin Arrancar.” Byakuya stated.

 

Perro grabbed Mizuki and held her to him. He produced the tear and pulled her out. She looked forlorn and looked around a rather large white and red dwelling. He released her and turned away.

 

“Help me find Hiroto.” He said softly.

 

“What do I call you?” she asked with a hoarse voice.

 

“Kazuo's soul is only part of who I am now Mizuki. I have his memories and I may resemble him in some ways but I am not he. This is not his body.” Perro stated.

 

“I do not understand.” She said as tears fell.

 

“Sure you do. Your bastard sire is a lot like us Arrancar but of that plane.” He sneered.

 

“You say you loved me but why would Kazuo hurt me so horribly?” she asked.

 

“He was obsessed with you. After his twin died he tried to latch onto anything that was familiar. He always loved you. He was protective of you when you were tiny and could not understand why you would choose to be amongst the kumo. You have an inu form as well. He has seen it.” He said growling.

 

“I have two forms hai.” She said looking down.

 

“He always thought you so beautiful. When you began becoming an onna he used to feel dirty and disgusting but he wanted to be with you. I want to be with you.” He said narrowing his dark amber eyes.

 

“He used to call me a hanyou and filthy blood! He acted like I was a pariah.” She said as the tears fell.

 

“He wanted to distance himself from his feelings. He knew you were more powerful then he was and he also knew how much he wanted to taste you and take you.” He said nearing her.

 

She looked away and her heart felt like it was bleeding.

 

“I just wanted him to tell me that he loved me as his sister and that I was good enough but he never did; haha did not ask me to find him. I went looking on my own and he took part of me with him to the grave. How could he kill himself when he was all I had from my beginnings? I would have forgiven him. I would have begged him to stay!” she said falling to her knees.

 

“He came back to himself after he hurt you and he could not face you after having brutalized you. He could not face your looking at him in fear.” The Vasto Lorde said in a pained whisper.

 

“So he hung himself like a coward! You bastard!” she screamed as she ran at him and beat his chest.

 

“He was not evil but he had committed great evil.” He said holding onto her shoulders.

 

“So how was it my fault?” she screamed.

 

“I do not know. I know he loved you. I feel that love he felt for you. I feel that passion he felt for you. He did not think it right that his sister should be so beautiful. I know that I am not your blood now and this is not forbidden.” He said in a hoarser tone.

 

“I…” she tried to say.

 

“Did you love him in any way?” he asked.

 

“Hai of course!” she said closing her eyes.

 

“I want no pain. I wish no more of his guilt. I want no more of his anger. I want to find his twin; my twin and the younger inu sister.” He said pacing.

 

“Yuzuna?” she asked surprised.

 

“Hai.” He nodded.

 

“Why would you want her?” she asked.

 

“She is inu and it was an Arrancar that destroyed will be dead and soon. You…I wish to love you.” He said looking at her over his shoulder.

 

She was floored and he moved over to her and tipped her head back. She stared into his eyes and he wanted her forgiveness. He kissed her and held the back of her head; his hand fisted in her ebony silk hair. She whined and he understood it perfectly. He wondered if she even knew inu as she was whimpering and whining. Perro held her closer and commanded her lips as his one hand drifted down her front and suddenly pulled of the cashmere sweater she wore. He undid her jeans and she did not stop him. He slowly walked her backwards as he leaned her back against a futon.

 

“I will help kill Aizen if he touches you again.” He said then lowered his lips and nipped a pink tip.

 

“Kamis.” She moaned.

 

She had inu instincts in her as well and he wanted to see her beg him. He wanted this right and not forced or taken. He was being driven by desires and memories that had been dirty and tainted; now they could be beautiful and perfect. He had to die in order to have her, he realized and now he was grateful. She was responding to his nips and suckling as he worked his way down her body. Memories of the rape were assaulting him and he growled. He pulled away and she stared at him.

 

“What? Do not stop.” She stated.

 

“I will take you back now.” He said moving away from her.

 

“No! I want to heal. You owe this to me! You owe me!” she said in a snarl.

 

She came at him again and he held her forearms. She jerked free and her lips and fangs were attacking his lips. He was coming undone as she was taking from him. He sank down with her and he pressed into her center as he still kissed her slowly. She groaned as they moved in perfect unison. Her hands began tearing at his black hakama and haori. He stopped and stripped quickly and pressed back into her. His hollow hole was rather small but in his sternum. She was arching and he was immersed in the act and his feelings. He managed to sit and she was in his lap as their bodies moved perfectly. Their lips met again and he could not feel enough of her. She was worth the wait and he was loosing his mind to the need and pleasure he felt inside of her. Mizuki could not stop and she felt as if they should be wrong but he was right and by semantics; he was no longer her brother. The passion was incredible and she ripped her lips from his. She found his neck and he gasped as he felt her tongue and fangs.

 

“Do it!” he begged.

 

She sank them in and he roared as he climaxed. She shook as she too was dragged into his. His arms were wrapped around her as they came down together.

 

“He will die for touching you. He will die painfully.” He whispered.

 

“Aizen?” she murmured.

 

“Hai. Still so beautiful. You are sweet.” He said kissing her neck.

 

“Do not leave me again.” She said burying her nose in his juncture.

 

“He could not be saved Mizuki. He was dead long before. His mind was gone most times.” He said staying buried in her.

 

“I tried.” She said closing her eyes.

 

“You could not have. He died when Hiroto did. The connection was severed and he was alone. The pain was unreal.” He whispered in a hoarse tone.

 

“I can scour Soul Society.” She stated in his ear.

 

“If you do that then I will look for Yuzuna.” He said clutching her tightly.

 

“What of Aizen?” she asked.

 

“I am a Vasto Lorde Mizuki. He will regret fucking with me. I will not follow a shinigami!” he growled.

 

“You have to forgive haha.” She said softly.

 

He growled louder and she made him look at her.

 

“You love me?” she demanded.

 

“Always.” He said narrowing his eyes.

 

“Forgive my mother. She is not perfect and she knows she has done wrong.” She stated.

 

“You ask too much onna! She left us!” he hissed.

 

“Sheng demanded it!” she yelled.

 

“What?” he asked.

 

“He demanded it and he killed so many. She had to defend us Perro. She had to defend her family but after Kaz said he hated her and Sheng demanded that she leave you all alone. She went to him after Roto died and begged his forgiveness. She was immobilized after she saw Ayana dead. The younger twins were torn up too. Nori had been strangled and gutted. The bastards had wrapped his own intestines around his throat. She lost her mind to her inu and she howled and screamed.” She said remembering.

 

“Stop!” he said putting his hands to his head.

 

“I know how Hana died and Roto too. Haha lost her mind and she became immobile. She wishes she had been stronger. She wishes she had been there to save you.” She said clutching at him.

 

“Mizuki!” he said crushing her to him.

 

They held each other tightly and they ended up on the futon as grief took him over. She was finally asleep and he was staring out into the white desert. He sent a lower level Arrancar to Los Noches with a very nasty letter. He smirked and he would fight the Aizen bastard himself. He looked back at Mizuki and felt tremendous love for her. He had to let her return to her life but he would be apart of it. He could not be in the land of the living but he could be with her at times. He moved to her and kissed her softly.

 

“Time to go home Mizuki.” He said softly.

 

“Okay.” She said sitting up.

 

He watched as she dressed and he produced a garganta. He took her to her home and it was empty. He kissed her softly and held her face.

 

“I will be around my beloved.” He stated then stepped back.

 

She was affected and watched him leave. She felt overwhelmed and she went to her room and collapsed. She was woken later by Byakuya and Karu and she hugged them tightly.

 

“What the hell did he want?” Karu demanded.

 

“He wanted my forgiveness.” She said in a low tone.

 

“Bastard should have gone to hell for what he did. Why did you not try and kill him?” Karu growled.

 

“Leave it alone my love. I need some time in Soul Society.” She said getting up and holding him tightly.

 

Byakuya watched her as she kissed her mate and he let her go.

 

“I am going to Korea and visit my father.” He said holding her face.

 

“Okay.” She nodded.

 

Karu ported via his shoki and she drifted over to Byakuya and held him. He held her possessively and hatred welled up in him. His feelings for Aizen were simmering but the hollow would receive his wrath as well. She ported them to Soul Society and she had him lie beside her and hold her. He closed his grey eyes and planned murder. She fell asleep and he stayed beside her and turned Renji away.

Mizuki was in the youkai version of the Seireitei and she was wandering. Hana was holding her hand leading her around. Her sister was as pretty as she remembered and pain coursed through her at her having been cut down so early.

 

“Hana is happy Zuki.” She commented.

 

“Why did you not grow up?” she asked.

 

“Did not want to. I like being little.” She shrugged.

 

Tears fell down her face and she continued her search. They stayed with Nori and Ken'ichi in their home. She was amazed at her brothers and Ken'ichi was deep in thought.

 

“Sister, Hikari has been here. She has been up to mischief but she asked us if we wanted life in the other plane. Apparently one of her uncles has pissed her off and she has offered Nori and I this. Hana does not want to go back.” He said softly.

 

“Would you come back as pups?” she asked shocked.

 

“We would return as we were sister. I have been thinking about it and I am thinking I want to. I never knew my sire and I miss chichi.” He said.

 

“When?” she asked stunned.

 

“Soon. I mean at any time really. Would you be okay with that?” he asked.

 

“Why would I not?” she cried.

 

Hikari was in the door, Mizuki looked at her and she smiled.

 

“I am going to go against every rule they have sister. They banished my sire forever and they are purposely keeping Yuzuna somewhere. I am going to fuck their world. Uncle Kaisei and I are going down in glory.” She said smiling widely.

 

“What do you mean?” she asked horrified.

 

“I will most likely be made ningen but that is fine.” She said looking at her family.

 

“Why would you do that?” she asked shocked.

 

“Because there is crap going on in Soul Society and I will be damned if they screw with my family anymore!” she said in anger.

 

“Oh Kamis you are doing it now?” she asked.

 

“Why not?” Hikari asked.

 

“Oh shit! Okay…let me get to Korea. You are gonna give haha a heart attack as well as chichi.” She said sighing.

 

“Counting on it. I like you father. He is rather cool.” She said smiling.

 

Mizuki ported to the main Korean palace and she saw Ishin.

 

“Uncle Ishin now!” she said grabbing him.

 

“What is wrong.” He asked as they began running.

 

They heard crying and she ran into the room. Ishin almost passed out. There on the floor was Nori and Ken'ichi. Mizuki took Nori and Ishin took Ken'ichi and they ported to Tokyo. Shinobu saw them and they were laid on gurneys. He stared at her and raised a brow as his team converged.

 

“Who are they?” he asked.

 

“Hikari has been busy. Soul Society is in turmoil and Nori and Ken'ichi decided to come back.” She said biting her lip.

 

“The Nori and Ken'ichi?” he asked shocked.

 

“Hai. The younger twins.” She said watching as the trauma team worked on her brothers.

 

“Uncle Ishin stay with them so they see a familiar face.” She said as she ported to Vietnam.

 

Her father was on the phone and he was furious. He put the mouth piece down and mouthed what.

 

“Chichi hang up. Come now!” she said urgently.

 

He looked confused and he stood. She ported them to the hospital and he followed her to the trauma room. She saw his face and he shook his head back and forth several times.

 

“It cannot be. How? How? Tell me how!” he cried.

 

“Hikari.” She said softly.

 

“Why now??” he asked shaking.

 

“She has stated she is going down with some victories. I think there are some things going on that she does not agree with and she is going to do as much damage as she can I think.” She said softly.

 

“My sons.” He whispered.

 

He drifted into the room and he knelt by the twins and actually sobbed. Ishin looked at Mizuki and his eyes were moist. Mizuki nodded and ported out to Karakura Town and she found her mother with Ichigo eating dinner. Asuna watched her and she smiled.

 

“Haha, you need to come to the hospital.” She said smiling.

 

“Mizuki?” she asked concerned.

 

“Kurosaki Ichigo, can you stay with my brother?” she asked.

 

“Hai sure.” He said raising a brow.

 

Mizuki held her hand and ported them to the hospital. Asuna yelped and ran into the room. Nori was awake and he reached out for his mother. She fell to her knees as well and held his hand.

 

“Nori.” She breathed.

 

“Haha, you do not have to be sad. Hikari will make it better.” He said in his child like voice.

 

“Ken'ichi?” she asked.

 

“Head hurts!” he grumbled.

 

Naraku laughed and leaned down and pressed his lips to his forehead.

 

“Hey chichi we are okay. We wanted to come back.” Ken'ichi smiled broadly.

 

“You remember?” he asked surprised.

 

“Little. We gonna be okay.” Nori said seriously.

 

“Kamis.” Naraku said almost falling back.

 

“Haha?” Ken'ichi called out.

 

“Hai.” She said moving forward.

 

“Kari says she will find sissy. Can I see my other chichi?” he asked.

 

“Hai.” She said as tears fell down her eyes.

 

She ported to the West and she ran through the halls of the palace. Yuudai would be meeting with her father at the moment and she burst into the study. She grabbed his hand without saying a word. He was annoyed and looked around the hospital.

 

“Why am I here?” he asked.

 

Asuna covered her mouth and Ken'ichi was limping to the door and he put his finger to his lips and smirked mischievously.

 

“Hey chichi!” Ken'ichi called out.

 

Yuudai face became white and he turned. His pup from nearly four centuries ago waved at him.

 

“Chuusin?” he asked and then passed out.

 

Ken'ichi began laughing hysterically and she realized they had been restored from the age they had passed away. They were almost seven years old and they were almost babes. Ken'ichi came over and shook his father and Yuudai came around. He saw the face of his boy and tears fell freely.

 

“Sorry chichi. I have been away a long time.” He said hugging him.

 

“Hai.” He whispered.

 

“I can live with you and Chichi N?” he asked.

 

“Hai.” He nodded.

 

“Sorry I scared you. I missed you.” He said softly.

 

Yuudai nodded and he sat up and held his pup. He crushed him and Ken'ichi growled. Asuna laughed and Naraku was holding Nori to him.

 

“Hello mutt.” Naraku said to Yuudai.

 

“Hey mongrel.” Yuudai laughed.

 

The scene was comical but also heartfelt. Asuna sobbed in a private room and wondered what her wraith daughter was doing. Somehow it seemed wonderful and not good at the same time. She looked up and saw Ichigo. He held Hinata and somehow it was perfect he was there.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Aizen read the letter and could not believe the balls of the Vasto Lorde. He stood up in a fury and looked over at Grimmjow.

 

“Go into the real world and wreck all the havoc you like.” Aizen said walking away.

 

Grimmjow grinned with malice and he immediately went into the living world. He appeared near Karakura Town and went to the beach front property of the inu whore. She was immediately behind him and she began tearing at him with claws and fist. Her rounded on her and she noticed his missing arm. She narrowed her eyes and spit at him.

 

“You are crippled!” she snarled.

 

“It isn't gonna stop me from tearing you up!” the Arrancar sneered.

 

“You killed my daughter because you thought she was me. You destroyed an onna who was not on your par. I had assumed you had a shred of honor.” She growled low.

 

“It was too fucking easy. She was more concerned for the shit face shinigami.” He laughed crazily.

 

She rushed him and they ended up in the water tearing and snarling at the other. She was getting bloodied badly but she did not care. They were landing vicious blows. She had ripped out a chunk of his blue hair and he ripped through her thin dressing gown. She wrapped claws around his throat and dug in and he threw her onto the sand. He went to punch her and sank her claws into his hollow hole. He choked out and fell to his back. She kneed his groin and he was in pain. He managed to gouge a breast and they both were bleeding terribly.

 

“She was innocent of you!” she screamed.

 

“So fucking what!” he yelled.

 

“I hear Mizuki let loose on you too. Shall I do as she did?” she asked in a dangerous tone.

 

“Fight and shut up whore!” he said rolling.

 

Her claws took on the now familiar greenish hue and she sank them into his chest. The pain was almost unbearable and the Arrancar was certain he was in love. He had never met a female that could do as she did and he was going to kill her. She grabbed his cock and he shuddered.

 

“You sick bastard!” she said in a sneer.

 

“What? Battle never turns you on?” he laughed.

 

“I am not some animal! I may have an animal form but I am not entirely controlled by those instincts. That is what makes me better then you any day Arrancar.” She said cruelly.

 

“I have enough guts to admit that spilling your blood makes me hard as hell!” he growled.

 

“Well you most certainly act like a neko. You are worthless!” she said in anger stepping back.

 

He managed to stand and rushed her and tore at her throat. He ripped the robe from her and she hissed. A hand snaked between her thighs and he sank three fingers into her center. She choked and struggled to get away. She had no wish to damage herself and he had a very dark predatory look on his face. He fell on her and hatred welled up in her and he yelled out as his head began hurting horribly. He fought her mental hold on him and pinned her with incredible strength. He managed to roll her and she snarled out. He was bleeding and torn up but was so turned on he intended to ease the ache. He pushed his cock into her and he fell over back to dominate her.

 

“Fuck!” he growled in her ear.

 

“Got off of me!” she snarled.

 

Hatred and fury radiated from her and bucked her hips to try and dislodge him. He was not purposely trying to bring out her inner youkai but his dominating actions had the inu snarling and growling as a strong male took her in the proper fashion.

 

“Bastard!” she growled out.

 

He shoved his hips forward repeatedly and she was growling and groaning as he did. He was shocked as she made very inu like sounds. He was lost in her snarls and growls as he pummeled her. He held her hip steady and he felt her walls suddenly clutch him painfully.

 

“Shit.” He grunted as he jerked against her hard.

 

She was beyond incensed at her traitorous body and threw him off. He stared at her and her features were roughened. She looked incredibly animal like and he was floored. Her eyes were burning red and her markings were jagged.

 

“You're fucking beautiful.” He said under his breath.

 

“You are a dead man. You deserve death for what you have done to my pups.” She said crawling forward.

 

Grimmjow jumped her and pinned her under him and slid into her easily. She thrashed in fury and whimpered as well. This scenario was so incredibly hot to him that he took the inu princess hard. She was as wild as any wildcat could have been and he came hard as her back arched. He pulled himself back and fell to his butt.

 

“I'm gonna fight you till bleed and fuck you hard every time I see you.” He laughed.

 

“I was mated to a silver tiger along while ago and he was much better at this then you!” she sneered.

 

“Right! You were moaning like the slut you are.” He laughed as he produced a garganta and tried to disappear.

 

She grew furious and lunged after him. They fell through it and she had the gown haphazardly around her. She punched him and he was trying to strangle her. They were approached by a shinigami and Asuna was furious. She threw the shinigami with her mind and was thrilled to hear flesh and bone hit a solid mass.

 

“That was good! That was real good.” He laughed hard.

 

He dragged her up and pulled her to him. She glared at him with hatred and she saw hatred reflected in his eyes as well but not towards her. She looked over at the unconscious shinigami. She heard the Arrancar's thoughts and stared at him.

 

“Where is Yuzuna?” she asked suddenly.

 

“Shut up!” he growled.

 

“You did not kill her!” she said in sudden shock.

 

He refused to answer her and she was thinking back to what she had been told of Aizen.

 

“You failed in your mission and you were punished!” she said in understanding.

 

He slapped her and she growled. She again stared at the unconscious shinigami and she stalked over to him. She grabbed his own zanpakuto and stabbed him with it. He came awake as blood poured from the chest wound.

 

“You tell Aizen that I am here and the next time you feel the need to take someone's limb then you had best kill them lest someone else gets revenge.” She snarled.

 

She grabbed Grimmjow and she ported them both by dipping into his animal like mind. They appeared out in a white desert under a tree and he was watching her with his blue eyes.

 

“You did not kill her. Aizen used his zanpakuto instead and made us think you did. You do have some fucked up sense of honor. Why were you punished?” she demanded.

 

“None of your fucking business!” he growled.

 

“Listen here Grimmjow. I am inclined to kill you anyway for using my body but you did not kill Yuzuna. She is not in Soul Society anywhere and why would Aizen want of her?” she demanded.

 

“The man is a demented bastard. I like to fight and you and your boy toy provide me some decent sport. You especially.” He said leering at her.

 

She wanted information and she was going to delve as far as she could. She moved closer to him and she undid his hakama. He growled loudly and she silenced him with her lips. He tried to snarl but she delved her tongue into his mouth. She stroked her slick appendage against his and his response was immediate; he crushed her violently to him as she somehow managed to make his instincts come out. She slowly pulled back and snapped his jaws at her.

 

“I shall use you as you used me.” She said in his ear.

 

She lost her dressing gown and slid down his hard member. He stared at her with intense eyes and she rolled her hips. He gripped her tightly as she suddenly stopped. He gasped and hissed in anger at her and he felt the inu inside of his mind. She lifted a wrist and bit in and he sucked in his breath; he shifted as pleasure took him. He refused to show her how good it was and he kept himself leering. She felt his desire rising and he wanted to throw her down and just loose it. She saw what the dark skinned shinigami had done and Grimmjow had been as much as a pawn in a twisted plot. The Espada had no idea what Aizen wanted and he had not killed Yuzuna. She was sure it was a very elaborate doll that they had cremated. This being intrigued her and she licked the puncture wounds in his wrist and he released a guttural groan.

 

Grimmjow lost it and had no intentions of waiting any longer. He pushed her back and she grabbed his hips and kept him from plunging into her.

 

“Let go!” he snarled.

 

“No. If you are going to rut then I want more.” She said smirking.

 

“What?” he growled.

 

“Hai.” She said licking her lips.

 

He released her and he went to leave. She lay on her side and watched the impatient male glare at her.

 

“There is more to the act then just that.” She stated.

 

“Why should I care?” he snapped

 

“Do you wish me to finish then? I would be happy but it is on my terms and not yours.” She said narrowing her eyes.

 

“Sadistic cunt.” He said rudely.

 

“I see. You can produce a portal now if you will and if you do not then I will never fight you again.” She said watching his face.

 

He was on her in an instant and he yanked her hair hard.

 

“You want more?” he asked then lowered his lips to her breasts and bit harshly.

 

She yelped but he had not drawn blood. He sucked on the abused nub and she groaned. He was surprised at himself and he ended up cupping her breast as he lost himself in suckling her hard. Grimmjow was finding himself enjoying it immensely and he ravished her peaks. He ripped his lips away from her nipples and he nipped at her belly as he lowered his head to her center. He licked at her center tentatively and he growled in appreciation. She gasped as he began suckling her there too and snarled out as his aggressive actions. His fingers slipped into her core and she closed her eyes in the feeling. She heard an animal like sound come from him and she looked up. He became flush to her body and he tried to pummel her hard again. She gripped his hips tightly and he grew furious.

 

“I am going to fucking kill you slowly.” He hissed.

 

“Such endearments Arrancar. You know how to romance and woo a girl.” She said sarcastically.

 

“Bitch!” he growled.

 

He ended up on his back and he closed his eyes in utter frustration. Female Arrancar were just not this mouthy. He choked when he felt her warm mouth surround his cock and a guttural moan escaped his lips. She worked her amazing mouth and he was snarling. She got him to the edge and felt her lips suddenly around his stones and damn near climaxed then. She stopped right before.

 

“Sadistic whore!” he said trying to get up.

 

“Shut up idiot.” She stated in annoyance.

 

She straddled his hips and slowly descended on his cock and slammed his head against the white sand. She moved slowly and this was not what he normally did. He was building up again and he actually moaned and groaned like a whore for her. His blue eyes were filled with need and she lowered her mouth and kissed him passionately. His hand went to her hip and she began moving harder. He gasped and lifted his hips to get deeper. Both were making desperate noises and she climaxed hard and he followed immediately. Grimmjow was covered in sweat and sand as his breathing evened out.

 

“Why do you follow Aizen?” she asked.

 

“He is a powerful son of a bitch.” He said calming himself.

 

“Grimmjow, help me find my daughter.” She said softly.

 

“I had to take the fall for doing that. Your oldest brat tore my ass up good and Aizen let her. I'll help you find her and shove my zanpakuto so far up his ass. I'm still gonna tear your ass up.” He said narrowing his eyes.

 

“You have need of a therapist Arrancar. Kamis! Take me back to the living world.” She said pulling the dressing gown around her.

 

“What about your brat?” he demanded.

 

“I need clothes Arrancar. Sorry but this has been fun really but your revenge will be the saving of my daughter.” She stated looking back at him.

 

“He's obsessed with your crazy brat.” He said sneering.

 

“Mizuki.” She stated.

 

“If that's what you call the cunt.” He hissed.

 

She slapped him and he glared down at her.

 

“Your mouth is aborehant Grimmjow. I do not care what you call me but you will not disrespect my offspring. They are of royal blood and not anything like Aizen!” she snapped.

 

“Keh. I don't have time for your stupid bull shit.” He growled.

 

“Take me back to the living world.” She said in a softer tone.

 

He made the gate appear and she waited on him. He glared at her as he passed and they stepped onto the beach near her home.

 

“Stay around.” She commanded.

 

“Who'd you think your are bitch?” he snapped.

 

“I said stay around or we go for round two and I shall not take it easy on you.” She said glaring

 

She ported into her home and quickly showered and she put on a white tank top with silver hakama. Asuna was hurrying and she made a gate appear. She stepped through to Soul Society and she went to the barracks of Squad Thirteen. She pounded on the doors and they were opened by the two acting lieutenants. She walked past them and entered Ukitake's rooms. He was sleeping and he started when she came in.

 

“Lady Asuna?” he rasped.

 

“Yuzuna is not dead.” She said crossing her arms.

 

“What?” he asked.

 

“Aizen. I believe he took her. I have had some run ins with the Arrancar we thought had killed her.” She stated helping him up.

 

“But why?” he asked shocked.

 

“You may be of weak constitution you are one of the most powerful captains in the Gotei Thirteen. Yuzuna had your baby within her and imagine what a child of powerful lineage and hollow abilities could do.” She said pacing.

 

“He would turn my baby into an Arrancar?” he asked mortified.

 

“I am thinking so. Aizen never harmed Yuji but Mizuki got him out of there. There are my thoughts but I cannot prove it but she is not dead.” Asuna said looking at Jyuushiro.

 

“I have to help. I love her my lady.” He said.

 

“I know. We are going into Hueco Mundo it seems. Captain General needs to know.” She stated.

 

Hikari was there suddenly and she grinned happily.

 

“Well haha it seems we have some things to do. They knew that Yuzuna was in hell so to speak. Uncle Kaimei is gonna piss his hakama but I am taking you there.” She said smirking.

 

“Hikari do not be foolish!” Asuna snapped.

 

“They banished my father to the wastelands! If they think for a second that I will not continue then they are mistaken.” She hissed.

 

“You are being careless and I cannot loose a child!” she snarled.

 

“Haha, I am a wraith. Please.” She said smirking.

 

“Hikari.” She growled.

 

“You know what? I'll get Yuzuna…then I will continue to mess up Uncle Kaimei's world.” She said fading away.

 

“She is angry.” Asuna sighed.

 

“She can retrieve Yuzuna?” he asked.

 

“Hikari is a lot like Kaito. She is hard headed and breaks every rule she can. Kaito and her were more like best friends then father and daughter.” She sighed.

 

“I am getting myself together. Shunsui will help as well.” Jyuushiro stated.

 

“Hai.” Asuna nodded.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

She looked over at the Arrancar that was her keeper. She was tired as she truly had no idea what pregnant meant.

 

“Why am I being kept here?” she asked.

 

“I do not question my orders. I may not like it but I do it.” He replied.

 

“You lay there like a fool most days.” She said rolling her eyes.

 

“Why not? What do I have to do except watch you and you are too sick to do much.” The brunette Arrancar stated.

 

“What is your name?” she demanded.

 

“Does it matter?” he asked lazily.

 

“I swear if I was not ill.” She growled.

 

There was commotion and loud crashes. The door blew inwards and the male covered her from debris. Another Arrancar appeared inside and he was powerful.

 

“Well you have been a hard one to find.” The other said.

 

“Who are you?” she asked.

 

“Perro.” He said picking her up.

 

The brunette went to take on the Vasto Lorde but Perro was quicker and released a huge blast of cero. He produced a garganta and stepped through. He laid her down and felt her face with his hands and he looked down at her with curiosity.

 

“You are inu.” He stated.

 

“Hai. You are an Arrancar.” She said in retort.

 

“I was inu before. Go before the family shrine and say hello to Kazuo.” He muttered.

 

“Kazuo?” she asked shocked.

 

“I am Perro.” He growled.

 

“Why?” she asked shocked.

 

“It does not matter. That damn shinigami will not have anything!” he growled loudly.

 

He went to leave and she grabbed his arm. He looked down at the onna who looked like his mother from his inu life. She was very pretty and he remembered she had been sired by Yuuta. He looked away and she made a small noise.

 

“I am not your brother anymore onna. I have his memories but I am not he but his family will not suffer because of a shinigami.” He said producing a garganta and leaving.

 

She looked around and she was near the Western palace. She was so exhausted and she had not eaten properly in weeks. She walked to the grounds and saved her yoki. She was met immediately with her jii-chan and he looked shocked.

 

“Yuzuna?” he asked.

 

“Hai jii-chan. They faked my death. I am so tired, cam you take me home?” she asked.

 

“Hai.” He said picking her up.

 

Sesshomaru held her and she snuggled against his chest. He looked down at his beautiful grand pup and brought her into his study. He laid her on pillows and he had Jaken called on. He sent the imp to make phone calls and he then picked up the phone and dialed. Yuudai picked up the phone and Sesshomaru commanded the younger male to the palace. Yuudai wasted no time when his lord called and he made it there within ten minutes. Yuudai walked in and on the floor pillows was his baby sister.

 

“Yuzuna?” he asked shocked.

 

“Hai. I was not dead Yuudai.” She said bleary eyed.

 

“My sweet girl! Did they hurt you?” he asked.

 

“No, I need some meat but I am pregnant with Jyuushiro's baby.” She said.

 

He pulled her up into a hug and actually cried softly. Lord Sesshomaru had absolutely no idea what the hell was going on but this scene was beautiful. He had always liked and respected the former general and he saw how he looked at his grand pup. Yuzuna stood up and she took her brother's hands and ported them to his castle. She went to her room and went to fall upon the bed when she heard shrieking laughter of a little boy. Ken'ichi ran in and grinned at his sister who should have been his little sister but he was being chased by Nori.

 

“Boys! Outside!” Yuudai called.

 

“Hai chichi!” Ken'ichi called and took off.

 

“That is…what the…when?” she stammered.

 

“Hikari.” He said smiling.

 

“Oh my.” She said sitting.

 

“Hai. That is your now younger brother.” He laughed.

 

“Yuudai, how are you and haha getting along?” she asked.

 

“We are best friends like always why?” he asked.

 

“Where is Ise?” she asked.

 

“I disavowed her. We did not have any pups together.” He said looking away.

 

“I hated her anyways Yuudai.” She said smiling.

 

“Why did you not say something?” he demanded.

 

“It was not my life. I had no right to tell you who to love. I would have preferred you with haha.” She said lying down.

 

“Yuzuna, I know you are my sister but I have loved you the second I saw you. I saw you and I would have fought our chichi for you. I know he loved you as much but you have always been my little girl.” He stated.

 

“I know.” She smiled.

 

“Get some sleep. I will get your haha here.” He said kissing her crescent moon.

 

“Thanks Yuudai.” She said closing here eyes.

 

He moved to the phone in his room and he was shaking. In a matter of a few days; he had his girl and boy back. He called Asuna and she answered. He could hear her voice and within thirty seconds she had ported to his side. She had Jyuushiro with her and she immediately showed the white haired shinigami where she was. She came back in Yuudai's room and he looked up at her. He had kept his same room from his childhood and she was filled with memories. She looked back at him and they just stared at the other. She moved closer and for the moment the outside world did not seem to matter. She held his cheeks in her palms and his grey eyes were smoldering.

 

“I cannot keep this up chuusin.” He whispered.

 

“What?” she asked.

 

“Not being with you.” He replied.

 

She closed her eyes for a moment and Yuudai lifted her thin tank top up and began kissing her belly. Her hands rested on his head and she sighed in pleasure. He wrapped his arms around her waist and began scorching her belly with his lips. A knock on the door interrupted and she straightened her clothes. Her heart beat was thudding against her chest and she heard it easily. Ken'ichi bounced in and Nori was panting.

 

“What have you two been doing?” Asuna asked.

 

“Ken'ichi did it!” Nori said in accusation.

 

“Did what?” Yuudai asked.

 

“Did not!” Ken'ichi snapped.

 

“What?” Asuna asked exasperated.

 

“Jii-chan's fountain don't work so good now.” Ken'ichi said sheepishly.

 

“What did you do?” Asuna asked suppressing the need to laugh.

 

“Well I changed and decided to take a bath. Well Nori jumped in too and we sort of tussled and it was fun. We knocked over the statue.” The silver inu boy said grimacing.

 

“Kamis. That fountain was his memorial to his sire.” Asuna said sighing.

 

“I didn't mean it haha.” Ken'ichi whined.

 

“I will have it repaired. I think it would be prudent to tell jii-chan the truth and tell him how sorry you are.” Asuna said raising a brow.

 

“Okay but honest it was an accident.” He said looking nervous.

 

She smiled and she hugged Yuudai. Asuna bowed to him and mouthed the word soon. She hugged her boys and she ported out. Yuudai narrowed his grey eyes and he made a decision; he had his pups back, why not his rightful mate? He tackled the boys who shrieked in glee as he tickled them.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna was pacing and she stared at the inu shinigami that was Shihoin Juria. She continued to pace and the other onna sighed.

 

“What?” Juria asked.

 

“You know of this Aizen?” Asuna asked.

 

“Some. I do not know him personally. Look I am sorry I never told you the truth okay? I am a Tengu and I am a shinigami. I lost you in your first life and you were only a year old and I could not handle it.” She sighed.

 

“So you did exactly what Kaito did and you got mad at him?” she asked.

 

“Hai I did. You were my daughter at one time and damnit it all I was supposed to look out for you. I did not do a very good job as you turned out too much like me anyways.” She sighed.

 

“I still look like you.” Asuna observed.

 

“Hai. I have no idea what this Aizen fellow wants or thinks. I know I will fight him if necessary. I do know the little snake Gin though.” She said sneering.

 

“What would he want with Yuzuna? Does my theory sound credible?” Asuna asked.

 

“Hai. He wants power and a powerful army is good.” She stated.

 

“Okay. I am so tired lately.” She stated sitting down.

 

“You and Yuudai are getting close again.” She said.

 

“Hai.” Asuna nodded rubbing the bridge of her nose.

 

“What of your mates?” Juria asked sitting beside her.

 

“I see them but with this modern era our lives are busier then. Naraku most of all.” She said shrugging.

 

“Kurosaki Ichigo may become a problem my sweet.” She said hugging her.

 

“How so?” Asuna asked.

 

“He is a good sort but he has a tremendous jealous nature in him.” Juria said staring straight ahead.

 

“I will deal. I rutted the Arrancar named Grimmjow. Damn bastard had my beast in control.” She snapped.

 

“The one you thought killed Yuzuna?” she asked.

 

“Hai. Got him though. I made him slow down and do it right.” She said smirking.

 

“Careful Asuna. You can still get pregnant you know.” She said shaking her arm.

 

“No worries.” The inu princess laughed.

 

“I am foreseeing some old issues my darling. Mizuki has suffered some horrid things and she never told you.” Juria stated standing.

 

“What? Tell me!” Asuna said in a growl.

 

“Kazuo had raped her and that is why he committed suicide. She had gotten pregnant and aborted the baby herself. She did not want you hating him and she blamed herself.” She stated in a low tone.

 

Asuna's chest heaved and bitter anger tore through her. Somehow that particular time in their lives would never be better. She stood and she was shaking. She ported to Tokyo and knocked on Mizuki's door. She began pounding until Karu opened it. She burst in and Mizuki came to her bedroom door and stared bleary eyed at her mother.

 

“Why did you let me bury him with honors? Why did you suffer for that worthless beast!” she screamed.

 

“How…did you know?” she asked shocked.

 

“Tamiko told me finally, why did you not? I would have done something!” she cried.

 

“What haha? He was already dead. He is paying for his sins believe me. Above anything he was my brother haha. Kaz was my brother.” She said wiping away tears.

 

“You mean he became a deranged demented little fuck! I lost him after Hiroto died and I could not stop it! I tried. I am so sorry I failed you!” she said coming to her and hugging her tightly.

 

Both onna wept as they held each other. Hatred of her own son tore through her and she knew she could not forgive him as Mizuki had obviously done. She could not forgive the boy who had stolen away Mizuki's happiness at that point. She swore she would rip him apart if she ever saw him again.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Jyuushiro was lying beside Yuzuna and she was awake but enjoying the feel of him. His hand was over her belly protectively and he nuzzled her neck.

“I have missed you.” She whispered.

 

“Hai.” He said rolling her to her back.

 

He lowered his lips to hers and kissed her gently for a moment but the emotions of the past several weeks tore through him and he lost his mind. He clutched her desperately and brought forth all forms of passion. Yuzuna was shocked as her sweet, gentle Jyuushiro was acting this wild. He settled between her thighs and she gasped loudly. He had joined with her and it had been one long thrust. He was taking her in a desperate cloud of need and she was moaning harder as he brought out her inu side quickly. He would not give her time to try and rein herself in and he took her harder and faster. She snarled out loudly as her claws extended and her fangs did as well.

 

“Jyuushiro.” She managed in a gravelly tone.

 

“No! I thought you had died.” He whispered in her ear.

 

“Hurt…will hurt you.” She growled.

 

“No.” he groaned.

 

She could stand it no longer and sank her fangs into his juncture and bit down with force. He came suddenly as she was already in the midst of release. His breathing was rough and he ended up in a coughing fit. She scrambled for a handkerchief and handed it to him. He managed to calm down and he stared at her. She pressed a claw into her wrist and dragged it down. He watched her and she presented it to him.

 

“Take it in.” she commanded softly.

 

He did not question and pressed his lips to her wrist. Her reddened eyes closed in rapture as he licked at the wound gently. He knew what he was doing because he knew the meaning. He sucked harder and she sank to her knees and began shaking as his actions caused her body into another orgasm. She groaned loudly as he lifted his head. She watched him and he pulled her to him and kissed her deeply again. She realized she had taken him as a mate and she was perfectly fine with it but she pulled away to look at him.

 

“I will take you as my wife in Soul Society. I cannot loose you. I am not myself without you anymore.” He stated softly.

 

“Jyuushiro.” She murmured in happiness.

 

“Marry me.” He said holding her face.

 

“Hai.” She said throwing her arms around him.

 

They stayed like that and she could feel the strength leave him and they again lay down. She watched his features even out as his soft brown eyes closed. She could not get over how beautiful he was or how good his soul was. She smiled at him and closed her own eyes. Ukitake Jyuushiro was hers and she could not be happier.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna was staring at the water from her porch and she could feel Ichigo behind her. He put a hand on her shoulder and she covered it with her own.

 

“What's wrong?” he asked softly.

 

“I found out that one of my oldest twins raped Mizuki.” She whispered in anger.

 

“Asuna!” he said in shock.

 

“Hai. I am contemplating something.” She said trembling.

 

“What?” he asked.

 

“Going back and killing him myself.” She said as tears fell down her face.

 

“What? How would that be possible?” he asked shocked.

 

“I used to do it all the time Ichigo. There is powerful magics in this world.” She said staring straight ahead.

 

“Asuna, he was messed up right?” Ichigo said softly.

 

“He had gone mad but he had no right to rape his sister! I do not care if he was crazier then a loon. If he was angry at me then he should have faced me and not his younger sister!” she shouted.

 

“Asuna, he was your son.” He stated.

 

“Was being the operative word. I know him not and apparently I never did. Would you come?” she asked.

 

“To the past to kill your son?” he asked.

 

“No not kill him. Make him suffer as he made his sister suffer.” She said burying her face in her hands as she cried.

 

“I can't kill your kid Asuna.” He said clenching his teeth.

 

“Then protect ours unto death.” She said rising.

 

“That I can do.” He said pulling her into a hug.

 

“I killed Sheng. I killed their father.” She said staring out.

 

“Sounds like you have some of your own demons to deal with.” He said holding her.

 

“Jin was Sheng's older brother. Sheng and I got into a terrible fight over Kazuo and I told Kazuo to live full time with his sire. I told him that it was okay to hate me. I wonder if I somehow intervene and save Hiroto…but that would change too much.” She said tears falling.

 

“How come you did not try?” he asked.

 

“It was too soon. It was too close to the event and changing some things can have such a profound effect on things now. I met Tekeshi in the past and he waited on my for centuries till I was born.” She said looking into the water.

 

“So where is your eldest born son?” Ichigo asked.

 

“I do not know. Hana found me in Soul Society after I died. Still a child and still innocent.” She said wiping her eyes.

 

“You should go.” He stated.

 

“I need you Ichigo.” She said staring at him.

 

“You mean go back four hundred years?” he asked.

 

“Hai. We would have to avoid myself but that would be easy.” She said thinking.

 

“What are you going to do?” he asked.

 

“I do not know. I will know once I get there.” She said chest heaving.

 

She heard Hinata and she moved into their room and picked him up. He was grousing and she offered him her breast. She sat on the patio and looked out.

 

“Would the Yamamoto clan look out for lil man here?” he asked.

 

“Hai. Teru thinks the world of Hinata. He says that you make pretty boys.” She said smiling softly.

 

“Yeah well as long as he remembers whose son this is.” Ichigo said scowling.

 

She finished feeding him and she went to her room and produced the amulet. She opened the gate and went to the Seireitei. She brought Hinata to Teru's office. He was sitting reading reports and he looked up. He smiled widely and she laid her baby into his arms.

 

“I have a personal mission and I will be out of pocket. I am sorry and it cannot be helped.” She said.

 

“Where are you going?” he asked.

 

“Gone.” She said walking away.

 

“Asuna, Kamis damnit onna! Answer a question.” He growled.

 

“I am taking care of my pups Teru! I somehow missed something huge and my pups suffered for it!” she snarled.

 

“Okay thank you.” He said calmer.

 

She walked out and produced a gate. Asuna walked through it and Ichigo was at their home and he was staring at Tamiko in her true form.

 

“She's a shinigami!” he accused.

 

“She is a shinigami Ichigo.” Asuna said.

 

“Are you ready my girl?” she asked.

 

“Where are you sending me Juria?” she asked.

 

“Right before the attack that took the pups Asuna; Ichigo take your shinigami form. This will be bad Asuna. The carnage was terrible.” She said softly.

 

Asuna nodded and she saw Ichigo separate from his body using his badge. She sighed and nodded as the portal appeared. Ichigo followed Asuna through the portal and he seemed weary. She looked around and she was glad she was wearing hakama and a tank top at least. She held out her hand and Konkisaiga appeared. Ichigo pulled Zengetsu and they walked along. His mouth was open as he took in the Summer Palace at Shenyang. She began running and she burst into the nursery and saw the kumo after her pups. She lifted her fang and released a very concentrated Supaida Nami. The female kumo was cut in half and Kazuo stared at his mother and Hiroto stared too. Their eyes were wide as if they did not recognize her.

 

“Go!” she yelled.

 

“Haha?” Hiroto asked.

 

“I said go my sons! Now go now!” she screamed.

 

“Haha?” Kazuo tried to ask.

 

“Do not question me! Go boys! Get to your chichi now!” she snarled.

 

Ichigo was killing kumo and he was overwhelmed in the blood. Asuna turned her head at actually seeing Hana dead. She began vomiting and Hiroto tried to drag her as well.

 

“No! Go!” she snarled.

 

They refused to leave her and she looked back at Ichigo. He nodded for her to go and she took their hands as they screamed for Hana. She held onto the twins with all her might and she ported them out. They appeared in He Gang and they stared at her shocked. Ichigawa ran in and took in her clothes and her hair.

 

“My lady?” he asked shocked.

 

“Hide the boys now! Hana is dead and I need to retrieve her body.” She said shaking.

 

“My lady what are you wearing?” Ichigawa asked.

 

“Where did you get that fang and how did you do that?” Hiroto asked amazed.

 

“Haha, you are weeping.” Kazuo stated gently.

 

“You two can port. Get your asses to the West now! Go and do not look back! Do you understand?” she growled.

 

They nodded and she stood. She extended her hand and the fang disappeared in her yoki and they all dropped their jaws. She heard shouts and she knew exactly what was coming. Several kumo burst in and she went to her knee and released the Supaida Nami fully and the kumo disengrated in the yoki.

 

“You are not haha.” Hiroto said in shock.

 

“I am your haha. Go now.” She commanded.

 

She looked up and Sheng was there and very much in awe and shock. She ignored him and grew furious with the twins. She grabbed them and ported them quickly. She shoved them into the nursery and produced a barrier. She quickly ported back to Ichigo and she produced her whip and began cutting up and decapitating kumo left and right. Ichigo had seen her fight but not like this and not with all her yoki powers. She lifted up a large kumo male and threw him with a wave of her hand. The battle was waning and Asuna staggered over to Hana. Ichigo removed his haori and covered her in it. He watched her sob beside her daughter's body and Sheng came in with his katana drawn and he saw her and the strange looking ningen boy. She looked up and stared at her former mate.

 

“Asuna?” he whispered.

 

“I did not get here in time.” She whispered back.

 

“Hana.” He whispered coming over.

 

“Sheng, do not look.” She said looking away.

 

“Hana.” Sheng whispered as tears fell.

 

“Korea was attacked as well. I have to go Sheng. I am sorry.” She said stepping back.

 

“When are you from?” he demanded looking up.

 

“Not this era.” She stated

 

“You saved the boys.” He said softly.

 

“I had to try. I have to go.” She said moving away.

 

“Who are you?” Sheng asked Ichigo.

 

“He is a shinigami and my mate. Leave him alone.” Asuna said flatly.

 

“A ningen?” Sheng asked shocked.

 

“Hai a ningen.” She said readying to port.

 

“Where are you in this era?” Sheng demanded.

 

“Loosing my mind. I am in the Western Palace holding the bodies of Ayana, Ken'ichi, and Nori.” She said without emotion.

 

“I am sorry. Go.” Sheng said softly.

 

“She is in Soul Society and she is happy Sheng. I think she has seen Tekeshi.” She said.

 

“Soul Society?” he asked.

 

“The Netherworld. I have to go now.” She said drifting away.

 

“Why did you come back?” he asked.

 

“Because a great crime takes place and I will not have it. Hide the boys away because this was not supposed to happen. Go somewhere far away.” She stated.

 

“You are asking me to take our sons away?” he asked.

 

“Hai! This will save you and me a lot of hatred Sheng and they can hate me but they will not be dead!” she said in anger.

 

“I understand.” He said.

 

“Okay. I am sorry for everything. I am sorry I could not remain true to you.” She said walking away.

 

“That fang?” he asked intrigued.

 

She held out her hand and produced her fang. Sheng's blue eyes widened and she lifted it up.

 

“Konkisaiga.” She stated.

 

“Kamis Asuna. That technique, what was that?” he asked.

 

She flung the Supaida nami and his face held awe. Sheng stared at her and she bowed.

 

“I lived several times before and it turns out I was a spideress in one. Goodbye Sheng.” Asuna said taking Ichigo's hand.

 

“Asuna wait.” He said moving forward.

 

Sheng jerked her forward and kissed her deeply. She was shocked and Ichigo almost came undone. She pulled back and stared at Sheng's boldness.

 

“Listen pal keep your fucking hands off of her!” Ichigo said as his reiatsu flared.

 

“Listen boy…I will do whatever I want.” Sheng said raising a brow.

 

“Now Ichigo.” She said pulling him.

 

“Listen you presumptuous bastard, I said keep your fucking hands off of her!” Ichigo said furiously.

 

“Ichigo enough! I bore him twin sons.” Asuna said in annoyance.

 

“You bore me a son too Asuna. Fuck you bastard!” Ichigo said walking away.

 

“Nice boy there Asuna.” He said sarcastically.

 

“Do not start Sheng. Bury my daughter.” She said walking away.

 

She grabbed Ichigo and she ported them to Qinghai. She masked their auras and she went to the library. She began rifling through scrolls and books of the era.

 

“Where are we?” he asked.

 

“West Qinghai.” She stated.

 

“Damn this place is amazing!” he said shocked.

 

“I wonder how Mingli is.” She said distantly.

 

“Who's Mingli?” he asked raising a brow.

 

“A very good friend. You wish to see a tiger youkai?” she asked.

 

“Yeah that would be cool!” he said smirking.

 

She took his hand and they ported to Lhasa. She spied the tigers and she moved with stealth. She had not seen Mingli in more than two centuries as their lives had become so incredibly busy. She saw him and her heart hammered in her chest. Ichigo watched as well and she kept her emotions neutral as the Bengal lord laughed with one of his brothers.

 

“That is Lord Mingli. He is the Lord of Bengal tigers. My sire killed his sire right after I had Ayana.” She whispered.

 

“You two were friends?” he asked.

 

“Hai. I liked Chao a lot. He was a good man, a good father. Mingli was a very good person.” She whispered.

 

“Cool.” Ichigo grinned.

 

Mingli was looking around and she made sure they were not seen. Wild neko had amazing senses and she had a feeling he felt her. She motioned for Ichigo to take her hand and they ported to Hong Kong. Ichigo looked around and he smiled.

 

“This was your place too?” he asked.

 

“Hai. I ruled Hong Kong remember; long before the British.” She laughed.

 

They went to the master chambers and they lay down. She waited for him to fall asleep and she ported back to Lhasa. She moved in stealth and she wanted to see Mingli again. She jumped up into the eaves and moved along. She found him in his rooms and he was getting undressed and her heart constricted. Centuries later and the tiger lord still managed to make her heart pound. He looked tired and he fell upon his bed and passed out. She inched closer and stared down at his face. His subtle striping was barely discernable in the moonlight. She leaned down and watched his face and his nose twitched.

 

“Li.” She whispered.

 

He groaned softly and he rolled over. She saw his tail and she gave up her fight. She began rubbing his sensitive spot and he came awake. He groaned loudly as she worked the spot expertly.

 

“Princess?” he groaned out.

 

“Hai.” She said softly.

 

“Gods, I was just dreaming about you.” He moaned out.

 

“I have been following you half the day.” She whispered in his ear.

 

“Why not come out?” he said breathing hard.

 

She sucked on a male nipple and he growled out loudly. Her hands roamed over his belly and his back as her lips worked their way down.

 

“Princess! Gods yes!” he snarled out.

 

She thrilled at his words and she wanted to feel him inside of her. She sat back and lost her tank top and hakama. He stared at her chest and fingered the lace.

 

“What is that?” he asked in a husky voice.

 

“A breast binding is all. You like it?” she asked.

 

“Yes.” He grinned.

 

She unhooked it and threw it away. She lied facing him and he kissed her softly. She reached up and felt his hair. Asuna was immersed in the tiger lord and she kissed him hard. He pushed her back as she undid his knot in his ku. She wrapped her hand around his member and he groaned loudly. Li opened her thighs and pushed into her. She immediately clawed his back as he stretched her.

 

“Gods Princess!” he snarled out as he pushed in deeper.

 

Her eyes were open wide as he pulled back and she gasped out in ecstasy. They fell into a delicious rhythm that had her snarling as much as him. They were moving hard against the other and Asuna ended up hooking a leg over his arm. Li was enveloped in the amazing feeling of being with her and he felt his yoki being pulled on. He buried his nose into her juncture and moaned out loudly as she continued to channel his heat. Their bodies were moving in blinding passion and she was arching underneath him. She could not remember exactly what was happening in her life but he would figure it out soon enough. Asuna was rasping Li's name over and over as she met his thrusts. His fangs were at her throat as he kissed and nipped her juncture. She began massaging his sensitive spot above his tail again. He snarled out and took her juncture into his mouth. Since her awakening her skin was perfectly clear of scars and she did not care. She closed her eyes and used her kinetic yoki and he lost it. He sank his fangs into her neck and she came hard and she jerked his head to the side and sank her own fangs into his throat. His strangled purr was loud as he roared out as he collapsed on her. Mingli's eyes were red as he stared down at her. She had the most satisfied grin on her face and it dawned on him what happened. He was normally very good at pulling back and he had not controlled his beast whatsoever. She wrapped her legs around his waist tightly and sighed.

 

“Princess this is not you.” He murmured gently.

 

“Really? I would know me Mingli. Kamis you feel wonderful. Roll us.” She commanded.

 

He did as she asked and she began moving against him again and the look of rapture on her face made him dizzy with feeling. He had a rough day with neighboring states and this was a treat in his opinion. His hands cupped her breasts and he ended up groaning loudly as she worked his body perfectly. It was always good with her but this was beyond his imagination. They ended up making love most of the night and he finally passed out in utter exhaustion. She was gone by the time he woke up and he found a note in her elegant hand. It simply stated; I love you. He wore a grin the next day and wished she could have stayed but this was memorable.

She ended playing cloak and dagger avoiding herself and she showed Ichigo all of her old haunts. He was amazed and they were laying in a field staring at each other. She was laughing as she watched him. She was light hearted at the moment and Ichigo did not think he had ever seen her this beautiful. She sat up suddenly when she felt an aura.

 

“A shinigami.” She whispered.

 

“You never sensed them in the past?” he asked her.

 

“I never paid attention. My opinion of ningens at this point is not that high.” She said honestly.

 

“Okay but you are now tied to one.” He said raising a brow.

 

“Who I love dearly and has the best ass I have ever seen.” She said playfully.

 

He turned red and she moved silently to spy the shinigami. Her mouth dropped open when she saw it and Ichigo had to keep his mouth shut. There stood Kurosaki Isshin in full captain's uniform.

 

“Son of a bitch!” Ichigo said surprised.

 

“Come away.” Asuna said dragging him.

 

“He was a fucking shinigami? He was a captain?” he asked shocked.

 

“I suppose so. That is quite interesting.” She said smirking.

 

“Asshole!” Ichigo growled.

 

Asuna dragged her young mate behind her and they felt more shinigami. She narrowed her eyes and she pulled Ichigo close and jumped up into a tree. She watched the shinigami captains and she noticed a blonde captain she had never seen before. Ichigo hissed softly and she looked at him.

 

“He is one of the Vizards!” he said with widened eyes.

 

“There is Aizen!” Asuna growled.

 

“I say we kick his fucking ass!” Ichigo hissed.

 

“No. I will.” She said jumping down.

 

She casually walked into the small group of shinigami and they all stared at the inu youkai.

 

“What are shinigami doing in Western lands? Perhaps you are looking for hollows?” she asked.

 

“How does a youkai know any of this?” The blonde asked.

 

“I know a lot shinigami. I also know Captain General Yamamoto. You there.” She said narrowing her eyes at a very young Aizen.

 

He stared at her with his intelligent face. He pointed to himself and he shrugged. She moved faster then flash steps and she punched him squarely in the face. He fell backwards on his back and she snarled at the young shinigami. They all stared at her as if she was insane and she stared at the blonde.

 

“Watch him.” She said under her breath and left.

 

Ichigo was pleased to no end seeing the bastard lay out but he wished he had done it. She was leaving when she was grabbed by the blonde shinigami.

 

“What makes you say that?' he said under his breath.

 

“You suspect as well. He is not what he appears. Take care.” She said porting away.

 

She appeared next to Ichigo and they ported away to Shomyo Falls and he gasped. She smiled softly as she saw his reactions. He came close to her and lifted her chin and began kissing her. She responded with intensity and she began making him loose his black haori and hakama. She ended up with her back against a boulder as they made intense love. They had no idea they were being watched by the same blonde shinigami. The poor captain was in a state as he hid behind a tree. He heard the onna cry out and he clenched his teeth shut. He had intended to question her about Aizen Sosuke but he ended up watching like a pervert. Shinji knew she was inu so he knew to keep quiet.

 

Ichigo ended up moving further down the river to look for fish and she was sunning herself on the rock. She looked over at the tree the shinigami was hiding behind.

 

“Did you enjoy watching? I would have minded when I was younger but I find myself excited that you did watch.” She stated amused.

 

“I am sorry. I do apologize.” She heard from the tree.

 

“Come speak your mind please.” She said more amused.

 

“Are you covered?” he called.

 

“Should I be?” she called back.

 

“I am embarrassed enough onna.” He said in a hushed tone.

 

She used Ichigo's haori and covered up and he came out. His face was red and he bowed.

 

“You are a silver inu.” He remarked.

 

“Very good.” She said laughing.

 

“Help me out please.” He said biting his lips.

 

“I am Lady Asuna. Lord Sesshomaru is my sire and you stand within his lands. I am his heir and the princess of the West.” She said smiling.

 

“Hirako Shinji.” He said bowing again.

 

“By your coat you are Captain Hirako Shinji of the Fifth Squad of the Gotei Thirteen.” She said raising a brow.

 

“Hai.” He nodded.

 

“I sense malice in the young shinigami. He is not to be trusted. I am a telepath of some strength and he radiates evil.” She said bluntly.

 

“I see. I had similar feelings. He just came from the Shinigami Academy and I asked for him in my squad to keep an eye on him.” He said.

 

“Then keep an eye on him and watch out for yourself.” She remarked.

 

“How do you know about Soul Society?” he asked.

 

“Kaito is a particular friend.” She murmured.

 

“I see. You are well connected even if it is an area I am not allowed to go. I am pleased to meet you Lady Asuna.” He said bowing.

 

“Did you enjoy what you saw?” she asked.

 

“I um.” He said turning red again.

 

“By your red face and scenting your arousal then I would say hai.” She said smiling.

 

He said nothing and she leaned forward and pressed her lips to his ear.

 

“Make sure we meet in the future. Goodbye Captain Hirako.” She said smirking.

 

He stepped back red and shunpoed away. She looked over and saw Tamiko and she sighed.

 

“I have no idea why you use that guise if you now know that I know Juria.” Asuna stated.

 

“Oh alright.” She said changing.

 

“Thank you. I have no idea why you lied so much. Why not tell me that I was your pup at one time? Hell it makes sense now that Yasu acted like a nut.” She said staring at her Tengu.

 

“Damn old man, he needs to keep his mouth shut!” she growled.

 

“Well I suppose I should return. What am I going to find?” Asuna asked.

 

“Surprising very little has changed. Sheng is alive and so are the twins. They do not deal with you all so that has changed drastically but things are still bad with the Arrancar and Aizen.” She said pacing.

 

“What of Mizuki?” she asked.

 

“It was not Kazuo that got her but Kazuo is by no means innocent in his feelings for his sister.” She said.

 

“Damn. Well they are adults now and she can beat him to a pulp if he makes a move. Ah there is Ichigo.” She said smiling.

 

“Hello.” He said bowing.

 

“Hello Kurosaki Ichigo.” She said smiling.

 

“There is the portal. I have a date so to speak. Yasu is bringing a picnic and we are eating under the stars.” She said lightly.

 

“Are you two still?” Asuna asked shocked.

 

“Oh hai. I do as often as I can. I have never not loved Hanori.” She laughed.

 

“You took Touga as a lover as well.” She stated at her.

 

“Shinigami Asuna remember? Touga was not my descendent anymore. I am a Shihoin.” She said lightly.

 

“What about Guang?” she snapped.

 

“What about him my dear? You and I are more alike then you would care to admit.” She laughed as she disappeared.

 

Ichigo just stared and Asuna wrapped his haori around herself. They walked through the portal and they appeared in their house. It was quiet and quite peaceful. She proceeded to take a long shower and get in the bed next to her shinigami mate. The vomiting started not long after. She was retching violently into the toilet and Ichigo was still sleeping. She closed her eyes and sighed. She ported to Yamasaki Hospital and found Nobu working in his office.

 

“Say one word to admonish me and I will hit you.” She growled.

 

“Come here!” he said sighing.

 

She came over and pressed his ear to her belly and looked up.

 

“Well she is a tiger and I know Quon is dead. What have you been doing?” he demanded.

 

“I went to the past to stop a travesty and I sort of ran into Mingli.” She said sighing.

 

“Oh you ran into him several times Asuna.” Nobu said sarcastically.

 

“Shut up kumo!” she growled.

 

“Shit Asuna! You have a terrible time almost every birth I have seen. You should know better onna!” he growled.

 

“Well it is my body.” She said looking away.

 

“You know what you have been running around and you forget who we are.” He snapped.

 

“I have not forgotten!” she yelled.

 

“Oh my little warrior.” He said standing and grabbing her.

 

He pressed her up against the door and pulled her down into a hungry kiss and she gasped. Her mind wandered to many scenarios and Nobu produced his shoki cloud. He intended to make her remember her kumo self and bring her into some sense. She ended up hoarse and unable to walk after her healer mate got through with her. She was in his bed and his arms when morning broke. She sighed and realized that the males in her life were fixing to give her hell.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

She knew things had happened because she had memories but she knew that it had changed somehow. She got up and looked out the window of her bedroom and wondered what the hell had happened. She moved to the phone and dialed her mother's cell phone and Asuna picked up.

 

“Hello?” Asuna asked.

 

“Haha, I remember one way and now I know that is not real.” She said confused.

 

“I went back Mizuki. I could not allow what happened to happen. I changed some major things but Kazuo and Hiroto are alive and I know it was said they were dead.” Her mother explained.

 

“I am glad. I am glad he is alive.” She whispered.

 

“I am as well. Can you try and find Lord Mingli for me?” she asked.

 

“Haha, he is dead. He was killed during the Communist takeover of China.” She said softly.

 

“I was not aware. Thank you my darling. We will search out the twins later. Get some rest.” Asuna said as she seemed unfazed.

 

They both hung up and Asuna was shaking. She had not thought to think and Li was dead. She was suddenly sick again and ran to the bathroom and threw up till she dry heaved. Surely some of his family still lived. She would have to go to Lhasa and find out. She could not allow him not to know that she had finally fulfilled her promise. She groaned and went back to bed and tried to sleep but began going through scenarios in her head. She would go back again if necessary.
