Gathering Arms

Grimmjow was brought to Szayel Granz for healing and Nanami saw him in a strange form and bloodied terribly. She scrambled over and Granz gave her the nastiest look. She pressed on his chest to see if he responded to pain and looked at Granz.

“He needs volume!” she snapped.

“What?” he asked.

“He needs volume as in saline and possibly blood or plasma. I am thinking plasma because Arrancar blood is darker red but then the air is thinner here.” She said thinking quickly.

“What do you need onna?” he said annoyed.

“I need you to take me to my hospital! I can save him.” She said coldly.

He hauled up Grimmjow without thought and made a garganta appear. They walked through and they were in a secluded part of the hospital. She moved to a supply cart and she began pulling IVs and other things. She hit a button and a nurse appeared suddenly.

“Doctor Yamasaki?” the nurse cried.

“I need ten units of plasma stat! Get Doctor Yamasaki in here too.” She said quickly.

“Hai.” The nurse said running.

“You are trying something.” Granz said amused.

“I am trying to save his life! My mother cares for him and I will not allow him to die.” She snapped.

Shinobu came in and he was shocked. The nurse came in and handed over the plasma. Shinobu and she worked quickly and she stepped back and wiped her brow.

“He is stable.” She said sighing.

“Good work Nami!” Shinobu said in admiration.

“We will be leaving now.” Granz said.

“No actually we will not!” Nanami said.

Shinobu smirked widely and Granz saw a very slender looking male kumo. He had coppery brown hair and the same brown eyes. Another kumo flanked the male and she had black hair and black eyes.

“I am happy to see you Bihua and Aya.” Nanami said in relief.

“You win this round.” Granz said smirking.

Szayel took Grimmjow and went through a garganta. Nanami went to Aya and hugged her aunt tightly. Her uncle patted her shoulder and she felt safe. These two warrior kumo had mated back in the early days of the reunification and they had been a strong partnership after they finally got to know each other. Ayana had been mated to their only son Yasunari who had in turn died in the Boxer Rebellion.

“Are you alright?” Aya asked.

“Hai. I want to go home.” Nanami said sighing.

“Your chichi wants you to stay in Korea for now.” Bihua said.

“I want to go somewhere else okay?” Nanami said narrowing her eyes.

“Nami!” Aya growled.

“Aunt Aya no! I want to see someone.” She said walking away and porting.

She appeared at Karakura General and she went straight to Ryuken's` office. She stepped in and he turned around in his chair and he looked relieved.

“I was going to come after you.” He said meeting her eyes.

“I know. Thank you for saving me.” She said coming to him.

“Marry me.” He said heavily.

“Ryuken.” She sighed.

“Marry me!” he stated lifting her chin.

“I need time.” She said hugging him.

“I love you Nanami.” He said stubbornly.

“I love you too Ryuken but it is not that easy. Please allow me some time to think.” She said imploring him.

“What is to think about? That shinigami?” he asked in anger.

“I have never lied to you.” She said softly.

“No you have not lied to me but you cannot separate yourself from a cur!” he said humiliated.

She felt his emotions and she covered her mouth. She closed her eyes and made a decision.

“Ryuken do not walk away!” she cried.

“Why not?” he said looking back at her.

“Damnit Ryuken!” she said walking closer.

“What are you wearing?” he asked taking in her form.

“This is what they wear there it seems.” She said in a low voice.

“Nanami perhaps we should take a break. I realize you are busy as am I. Uryu is starting university soon.” He said stiffly.

“Because I say I need time you are going to shove me out of your way!” She said in anger.

“I play second to no one.” He said staring at her hard.

“There are things I want Ryuken! Uryu is starting university but I want my own children! Your son is now grown. Do you even want more? Can you cut back your hours and damn it all can you handle being with a youkai?” she lamented.

“You have thought about this.” He said dumbly.

“Hai! I have thought about this. What happens when I cannot control myself and I mark you? I cannot handle losing another mate! I lost Tomoharu and I wanted to die. I wanted to die so much.” She said suddenly sobbing.

“I am sorry Nanami. I have been selfish.” He said sounding ashamed of himself.

“You are a Quincey and I know you are powerful but Ryuken you are still mortal.” She said wiping away the salty tears.

“Please forget I asked. Your reasons are quite sound.” He said walking past her.

Tears continued to well up and she wanted to hit something. She followed after him and he was walking briskly.

“Ryuken!” she called after him.

“Doctor Ishida please.” He said turning.

They had an audience and she dropped her jaw.

“I said let me think! You cannot handle anyone telling you no! You were furious when I told you no before and you think I am doing it again.” She yelled.

“Doctor Yamasaki not here!” he snapped.

“Fine!” she growled.

She walked past him and left out of the hospital. She began sobbing terribly and she ended up sitting on the sidewalk. She felt his presence and he stood a few feet from her.

“I have pined away for you for years now. I am so tired of wanting more and getting nothing. I love my son too but I have had to give up on him as well.” He said without emotion.

“You are a fool then Ryuken.” She said wiping her face.

“How dare you.” He said in a low tone.

She stood up and turned to him. She decided to show him exactly what she was capable of. She stepped forward and invaded his personal space. He tried to step back but she captured his lips. He was surprised but she began delving her tongue in his mouth and her hands undid his tie. He was flushed and tried to step away.

“You have no idea what it is you are pissed off about Doctor Ishida.” She said in a low growl.

“What are you doing?” he demanded.

She had the gall to rip open his shirt and she bared his chest. He kept himself in perfect condition and her mouth watered. She knew other ningen could see but she was making a point.

“Nanami!” he said grabbing her shoulders.

She leaned forward and nipped his lips. He was angry at her antics and he jerked away from her. He walked away with as much dignity as he could muster and he went to the parking garage that held his Mercedes. She had followed him silently and suddenly she pinned him against a pillar.

“Nanami what are you doing?” he asked in an impatient voice.

She actually released her silk against one hand. He was furious and she slowly unbuttoned his button down shirt. She unbuckled his pants and he looked shocked at her wanton behavior.

“Nanami?” he asked in strained voice.

She ignored him and slid down his body and dragged his pants down. He was exposed and this was more private but still so out in the open. She looked up at him with her black eyes and she licked at his member. He sucked in his breath and actually groaned loudly as she began palming his sac.

“Nanami! Damnit onna.” He groaned loudly.

She plunged him down her throat and his eyes widened. Nanami's yoki had widened and she had been delighted to discover she had small amounts of kumo venom. She kept in her grin and she pressed in her claw at the base of his groin; her Quincey lover suddenly felt such profound heat and pressure. His free hand rested on her head and she was getting him close.

“Please Nanami. Not here. Onna please!” he begged.

She looked up at him and her eyes were bleeding red. He was captivated by the sight and she delivered him pure feeling.

“Nanami my love.” He moaned out as his head rolled to the side.

His brow furrowed as he grunted softly in his climax. She slowly rose and pressed her palm to her silk and dissolved it. She was pressed against him and softly kissed at his lips.

“Have you ever tasted yourself Ryuken?” she asked heavily.

“No.” he said in a languid way.

She again swept her tongue into his mouth and he closed his brown eyes. The passionate caress was intended to drug his senses and it was working. He suddenly picked her up and laid her on the hood of his car. He undid the hideous white dress and bared her front. He made sure to slowly run his fingers over her flesh and she arched like a pagan goddess for him. He loved making love to her as her responses spurred him on. His lips were leaving scorching kisses on her breasts and belly as she shook lightly. Nanami could not stop groaning as he touched her.

“Ryuken.” She breathed out.

“Nanami port us?” he asked softly.

She nodded no and he grunted in annoyance but it was replaced with a groan as she suddenly stroked him. He pulled her bottom to the edge of the hood and he connected them. He rolled his hips in such a way and she was moaning. He leaned his chest against hers and he began kissing her in a fog. One hand would cup a breast or hold her head as he continued to consume her in a heady embrace. He rolled his hips harder as he brought about their rapturous endings and he kept her noises silent. Ryuken held her hip steady as he shook hard in the blissful aftermath. Nanami was like butter at the moment and her fingers were aching. She had kept herself from dragging her claws down his back and Ryuken was shocked to see blood spill from her lips.

“Nanami?” he asked concerned.

“So hard.” She said in a low growl.

“What? What was so hard?” he prompted.

“So hard not to mark you.” She said shutting her red eyes.

She reached up and ran her fingers through his silverish white hair. He was confused as to what she was not saying and it hit him they had just had sex on his car. He suppressed a groan and went to move but she wrapped her legs around his waist.

“Nanami at least port us somewhere decent.” He said closing his eyes.

“Where Ryuken?” she asked.

“My home.” He muttered.

“Really? I have not been there.” She stated as she stretched.

She closed her eyes and she knew his address. She ported them suddenly and he looked sick. She let him go and he fell to his back. He saw his backyard and held his stomach.

“It takes getting used to.” She stated.

“Hai.” He said slowing standing.

He gave her his hand and he pulled her up. Nanami was in a mood and he led them inside. He was grateful that Uryu was in Tokyo at the moment. He needed a shower and she followed silently. He slowly undressed and he was meticulous. He went to his shower and he set his glasses on the counter. Nanami had found his bed and he assumed she was there. He stepped into the hot water and he suddenly felt her hands on his back.

“Nanami?” he said under his breath as her hands roamed him.

“Hai?” she whispered.

“What has consumed you?” he asked closing his eyes.

“I want you to know what it is you desire.” She stated as she kissed his neck.

“What do you think I do not understand?” he hissed.

“You wish to marry me. You wish to share with me. I want you to understand that I am not ningen.” She said into his ear.

“I know what you are Nanami.” He groaned loudly.

“Do you know what I wish?” she asked huskily in his ear.

“What?” he managed.

She was behind him and she was touching his organ. Doctor Ishida was so caught up and she continued to stroke him.

“When Tomoharu died I was so far gone. I was so sure that I could not go on.” She whispered.

“Why tell me this?” he rasped.

“Because I want to go on. I want what I was cheated out of.” She whispered in his ear.

“What Nanami? Onna please!” he said begging.

“Shall I tell you my base desires Ryuken? They are not of Doctor Yamasaki. They are the wishes of your youkai onna.” She said hoarsely.

“Tell me!” he rasped.

“Bathe me in you power Ryuken. I want you to let loose what you are. I want to feel all of you. Tomoharu was mortal completely. You are not.” She said still working him slowly.

“You want more then that.” He said beginning to shake.

“I am going to tell you what I want more then anything. It is my instinct and Kamis it is driving me over the edge.” She said beginning to run her hand along him with more speed.

“Hai!” he cried.

“I want you to fill me completely. I want to be taken hard and I want your seed in my belly.” She said in a low rumbling voice.

He came hard as she gasped a little. She felt his warm seed on her hand and she growled softly. He was breathing hard as he felt like jelly. She kissed his back and she slipped from the shower. He calmed himself and finished his shower. He expected to see her asleep but she was on his bed. She was watching him closely as he neared his bed. She boldly opened her own thighs and began to rub her clitoris in front of him. She closed her eyes as feeling coursed through her.

“Nanami.” He whispered hoarsely.

“Hai?” she said with a hitched breath.

He forgot himself and joined her. He opened her widely and rasped hard as he began taking her almost roughly. Nanami was in a sensory overload and she began making animal like growls as he did as she needed and wanted.

“So good! More my love! Break me!” she snarled out.

He had never seen her so wild or so incredibly hot. She did not hold back at all and her claws dug into his back hard and he yelled out. She was actually pulling on his spiritual powers and felt his Quincey powers flare. He heard himself make primitive noises and he felt her yoki. It was unlike anything he had experienced. He pressed his forehead to hers and he yelled out louder as their bodies and energies collided. She took his juncture and she did not ask. She bit down hard and he came with such ferocity that he collapsed against her. She arched and snarled out as her body succumbed to perfection. He groaned loudly and she guided his lips to her throat.

“Bite in.” she growled.

“Nanami.” He groaned against her flesh.

“Do it!” she growled louder.

He closed his eyes tightly and bit down with force. He expected to be revolted but it was so incredibly intimate. Nanami jerked hard against him and she screamed. She suddenly took his lips and bruised his in the intensity. She slowly pulled away and fell back utterly exhausted. He fell next to her and he watched her shut her eyes as her breathing evened out.

“Nanami, what have we done my heart?” he asked hoarsely.

“Ask me again.” She whispered.

“Marry me?” he asked amused.

“Hai. I took you in our way. I will marry you for ningen tradition.” She said trying to sleep.

“Beloved.” He said holding her hands.

“Do you want me to take your name?” she asked lightly.

“Hai.” He said kissing her.

“Okay. I need sleep. My bite will heal before the end of the day. You have a board meeting?” she pouted.

“Hai. I promise I will not be long.” He laughed.

“Okay.” She said smirking.

He groaned and made himself get up. He was so tired and he had not had this much sex in one day in a very long time. Nanami was actually snoring and he chuckled. He dressed quickly and called a car service. He had no intentions of being gone long at all.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

He was annoyed and he was tired. Kurosaki had actually been accepted to university as well and that had shocked him more then anything. It still shocked him that the damn shinigami was basically married and had children. He let himself into the house in Karakura Town. He walked around and his father was as meticulous as ever. He pushed his glasses up on the bridge of his nose and he walked into his father's room looking for some paperwork about the university. He began rummaging rather loudly and Nanami actually woke up. She saw Uryu and he looked like a younger Ryuken.

“Hello.” She said amused.

Uryu jumped out of his skin and turned around. He saw the young onna doctor that he met before and his jaw dropped. He began blushing hotly and she looked at her state of undress.

“Goodness. I am sorry. I forget where I was. You are Ishida Uryu.” She said.

“Doc-doctor Yamasaki?” he asked rather dumbly.

“Hai. Actually call me Nanami.” She as calmly as possible.

“You are naked.” He said idiotically.

“Hai. I am sorry you are embarrassed. If you turn around then I shall get a robe.” She said.

He hastily turned around and he wanted to groan. His father had a girlfriend and he had not had a clue. She was hot as hell and she actually began blushing at his feelings.

“You can turn around Mister Ishida.” She said touching his shoulder.

He jumped again and he was red in the face. She smiled and reached up to push stray hair out of his face.

“Uryu.” He mumbled.

“Okay Uryu but you must call me Nanami.” She said grinning.

“May I ask a blunt question?” he asked.

“Hai.” She nodded.

“Are you and my father…?” he asked.

“Ryuken and I have been involved for some time Uryu.” She said gently.

“I see. Well as you can see my father and I do not talk much even though I live in his house.” He said suddenly leaving the room.

“I am sorry. I had not intended for you to find out this way.” She said following.

“How is it he can justify seeing an onna as young as you anyway?” he asked suddenly.

“I am older then he is.” She said biting her lip.

“That is right. You are youkai just like Kurosaki Ichigo's onna.” He said blushing.

“Actually she is my mother.” Nanami said blushing.

“Okay. Well he did not see fit to tell me that he has replaced my mother.” Uryu said in anger.

“She passed away I had thought.” She said confused.

“Hai. She passed away when I was small. He never seemed too broken up about it though. I have to go.” He said storming away.

“Uryu please!” she said going after him.

He ignored her and he went to leave the house. Nanami gently grabbed his shoulder and he turned and shoved her against the door. He was pissed off and he wanted to piss off his father. He leaned forward and kissed her. She was surprised and he suddenly deepened the kiss. He held her jaw lightly and he meant to only kiss her for a second. Nanami was still in shock and she groaned loudly as he began stroking his tongue against hers. He suddenly yanked himself away and he left the house. Her chest was heaving and she touched her lips. He was really good at it and she had always thought him an overly shy boy. She sighed but she decided to follow. She ran after him and it looked like he was heading to a cemetery.

“Uryu!” she called.

“Leave me alone.” He said calmly.

“Please talk to me.” She said coming closer.

“What is there to say? I am nothing to him. I am a pestilence.” He said in old anger.

She felt bad and he suddenly grabbed her again. He looked down at her face and she was shocked to see his emotions on his face.

“I have thought about you. When I met you at Kurosaki's house, I have had very racy thoughts about you.” He said staring at her face.

“Uryu, you are angry at your father and I cannot say that you are wrong. He is tight lipped…” she started to say.

He actually growled in fury and he held her face and kissed her again. This young man was like his father but much more emotional. He walked her backwards and she was getting weak in her knees. He did not care at the moment and he wanted to latch onto something real. He ended up kissing her completely silly and he finally stepped back. He left without saying a word and she stared after him. She was actually embarrassed and she ducked out behind a building. She ported quickly and she wrote a note to Ryuken letting him know Uryu was home. She ported to her apartment and Uryu stepped in. He saw the note and he grabbed it and ripped it up.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna woke up and she felt heavy in her limbs. She rolled to her side and she groaned as she struggled to sit up. She stood up finally and she walked slowly to her living room and she saw Ichigo. Masaki, Hinata, and Chiyo scrambled to love on her and she settled in a chair.

“Why am I here? What happened?” she said incoherently.

“Umm Nobu said to give him call. You have been asleep for like two days.” He said gently.

“Okay. Babies Haha will return.” She said kissing them and hugging them tightly.

She kissed Ichigo quickly. She ported out to Yamasaki General and she was reeling. She wanted to know where Haruya was and Naraku at the moment.

“Hello Asuna. You slept awhile.” Nobu said coming into sight.

“Where is Haruya?” she demanded.

“He is with Ishin at the moment.” Nobu said softly.

“How dare Naraku! How dare he take him!” she said in anger.

“Asuna sit down.” Nobu commanded.

“Pardon me?” she growled.

“My dear, Naraku rebound you two. Do you not feel him?” he asked.

She actually did have a slight hum in her head and she was shocked.

“What did he do?” she asked furious.

“You all threw each other around like you used to. I must say that he still has violent passion for you.” Nobu said leaning down.

He listened and he sighed. Her eyes widened and she was incensed.

“You had better tell him that I am going to skewer his male parts and serve them to him for his dinner!” she snarled.

“I do not have the balls to tell Naraku anything remotely like that. Haruya is his name? He is with Ishin.” Nobu said calmly.

She glared at him and she knew he agreed with Naraku. She ported to Korea and Ishin was rocking Grimmjow's son. She realized she was ready to bust from not nursing and she growled.

“Wondered how long it would take you to show up. I did have to supplement for the last couple of days but he is hungry.” He said calmly.

She took Haruya from Ishin and she sat down and put him to breast. Her half Arrancar babe began nursing immediately and he was suckling hard.

“So it is true.” Ishin said narrowing his black eyes.

“Not you too.” She said warily.

“Hai me too.” He said in anger.

She ignored him until she finished feeding her son. She called upon a maid servant and Haruya was taken to the nursery. She was pissed and she stormed back in. Ishin stood there and he looked as calm as could be. He kept his hair shoulder length and she had to admit he looked seductively sexy at the moment. Ishin stared at her and she stared right back. He said nothing and walked right past her. She was shocked and dumbfounded and he ported away. She snarled in fury and she ported to the forests around the palace. Youkai would always keep woods and forests close to their dwellings so that they could hunt unencumbered. She saw his web and she climbed right up it. She stared down and he was in his true form.

“You have opinions. You always have opinions and you are going to act all noble?” she yelled down.

Ishin stayed there a moment and he suddenly rushed her. She was about to fall and he grabbed her in his legs. He stared at her with his eyes and she glared at him.

-You have a lot of nerve. - he pathed.

“You side with him?” she snarled.

-Shut up! - he growled in her head.

He suddenly pulled them back down into his tube shaped web and he pressed her against the silk. She could not breathe very well and he changed back. He held onto her and he growled loudly.

“You have not hid your trysts in the past but now you do? You do it because you know we would be furious.” He said hotly in her ear.

“You speak to me of trysts? You have had an onna in your bed recently!” she yelled.

“Hai. My mate of the past five centuries has been busy fucking a hollow!” he said coldly in her ear.

“Do not dare! You had a life after I died!” she yelled out.

“You make excuses inu. You are just the same but at least in the past you were honest about it!” he said gripping her arm tightly.

“Are you jealous?” she asked as coldly.

He growled in fury and turned her around. He ripped her gown off of her and she looked outraged. He lifted her into the side of the web and it was scorching.

“I have nothing to be jealous of. I do not have a hole in my abdomen.” He said in a nasty tone.

“Shut up! You bastard!” she said with clenched teeth.

“You dare tell me to shut up?” he said as his voice dripped in disdain.

He ran his fingers along her bare skin and he had forgotten how she felt to him. He lowered his nose to her neck and he was hit with a scent he had not encountered in a long while. He shut his obsidian eyes and wondered what the hell Naraku had been doing. He wondered if his brother intended this and intended to drive him over the edge. Wicked and depraved thoughts hit him and he reached up to lightly pinch her nipples. Her scent was stronger and he suddenly began ruthlessly sucking on her pulse point. He damn near felled her and she released a strangled groan. He suddenly ported out and to the Red Palace. There was private hot springs and he settled between her thighs and began to kiss and nip at her tips.

“What are you doing?” she managed to ask.

“Is it not obvious? Kamis you smell divine.” He said with red eyes.

He gently squeezed her nipples and laved his tongue along her areola. He slipped his fingers between her nether lips. He massaged her and he flooded her with venom. She suddenly stiffened and she held onto to him. He had no intentions of letting her off that easy and he maneuvered her onto his staff. She was facing out so that he could touch and knead her breasts. She began hissing and groaning as he was moving slowly to torture her.

“Do not dare close your eyes. Watch as I touch you. Watch as I make you come.” He snapped in her ear.

“Kamis!” she yelped as he moved.

He dipped into her mind forcefully and she leaned back and arched her body out.

-Can he touch you like this? Can he touch your very thoughts my love? - he said within her mind.

“Ishin!” she said whining.

“You are still so beautiful my inu. You still moan so sweetly for me.” He said as he felt her mind.

The heat and the pressure were too much and she had to latch onto his thoughts to stay coherent. He prodded her in every imaginable way and refused her pinnacle. She had begun begging and nearly sobbing as he was loosing his own mind. Fury that another had touched her across the centuries ate at him and he too was insane with jealousy. He wanted, no needed her so badly and she was screaming suddenly. It was hazy and too distant he realized. He was so far gone in his natural mind that he taken her in her soul and her body. She was sobbing now and he began to loose his cohesion totally. The claws of his thumb pierced her thighs and she tried to black out.

“Not yet my love. Not yet my inu.” He said as she sagged against him.

His body was drained and she was so very full. He pulled them again into the shoki cloud. She recognized where they were and she stared back at Ishin. He remained buried in her and she saw Naraku come forward. He fell forward and crawled on his hands and knees. His kumo nature was very evident as he wore nothing. He could scent Ishin all over her and he could scent the sweet smell of her body sheltering his seed. He took her again very slowly and she was so far gone in her passion and memories. Ishin smirked at Naraku and they both partook of their lover and mother to their young.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna was asleep on her side and Ishin woke her gently. She groaned out and shut her eyes. Bile welled up in her gut and she sprang up and ran to the bathroom. She retched over and over as exhaustion took over her body.

“Haruya is hungry. Would you like me to feed him for you?” he called.

“Hai.” She moaned out as she began retching again.

Naraku was in the nursery and he reached down for the gorgeous baby in the cradle. He held him and traced his markings.

“All that beast was good for was creating you.” He mumbled.

“He is hungry.” Ishin murmured.

“Hai. She is sick?” Naraku asked.

“Hai. Should we have done that?” he asked.

“Absolutely. She is ours Ishin. How dare that thing touch her!” he said coldly.

Ishin agreed and he took the boy and sat down to feed him. He loved being a father and he grinned that they should have their family back. Now if he could calm his youngest son down then he would be thrilled. Asuna walked in and she glared at them both. They stared at her innocently and she took Haruya from Ishin.

“Will you bother to tell me what I am having?” she asked coldly.

“Two boys.” Naraku said staring at her with a smirk.

“You were wrong.” She said not looking at him.

“No. Keep telling yourself that. You bear our marks as you are supposed to. You are still the lady of this family. Never forget who owns your very soul. Shezmu is dead.” He said coldly and walked away.

She was dumbfounded and Ishin said nothing. He leaned down and kissed her lips.

“If you do not seek our bed then we will seek yours.” He said in her ear.

She stared straight ahead and she was beyond floored. She stared down at Haruya and she savagely sequestered them in her mind. Ishin made a rude noise and she ported away with her baby. She knew what they were doing and she could never hate them. She loved them still too much. She had given Naraku three sons and three daughters. She had given Ishin two daughters and two sons and they had raised Katsu as theirs.

“I have to protect your chichi from them. I love him Haruya. I love him so much.” She said closing her eyes.

She felt tears slide down her face and her personal life was a supreme mess. She had not seen Naraku like this in so long. She picked up the phone and she dialed Ishin's youngest son. Osami answered the phone and she sighed softly.

“Yo what's up?” he asked.

“Is that how you speak to your mother?” she asked miffed.

“Haha?” he asked nearly dropping his phone.

“Where are you? Why is your sire worried as hell about you?” she demanded.

“I am in London and last I checked I didn't need to tell Lord Ishin where I was.” He growled.

“Yamasaki Osami get your ass to Japan!” she growled.

“Or what?” he growled.

“I will come there and drag you back.” She said coldly.

“Fine! Where am I supposed to show up?” he asked.

“I am in Karakura Town at the moment.” She said.

The phone went dead and he suddenly appeared. This son was an extremely powerful telepath and he could dip into anyone's mind at any distance. He narrowed his amber eyes and waited. His hair was jet black like Ishin and he bore Lord Sesshomaru's eyes. His features were more fine boned then Jouichi and he actually looked as if he could be inu but he bore a kumo form.

“Oh hey there.” He said smiling down at Haruya.

“This is your brother Haruya.” She said sighing.

“What is he?” he asked surprised.

“He is half me and half Arrancar.” She said.

“Wow.” He grinned.

He lifted his nose and he groaned. He sat down with his baby brother and he glared at his mother.

`What did they do to you? This is a newborn!” he cried.

“We fought.” She sighed.

“Story of your life with them! Why can't they leave you alone?” he asked in anger.

“Stop it! You will see your brothers and me but why will you not see your father?” she asked.

“Shit like this! Them acting like fucking Gods.” He said growling.

“Osami, that is not your problem.” She sighed as she sat.

“You know what Haha? I don't care. I care about you and I care about my brothers and sisters but damn it, Lord Naraku and Lord Ishin can kiss my ass!” he said flatly.

“They do not like his father.” She said bluntly.

“Well they should have thought about that before they mated the Alexander of the youkai world.” He said smirking.

“Osami.” She sighed again.

“You aren't going to fix my issues with dads okay? I guess I could stay awhile.” He said grinning.

“Thank you.” She said closing her eyes.

“So tell me about this Arrancar.” He said jovially.

Grimmjow hurt in so many places that he wished he was still knocked out. He opened his eyes and Szayel stood over him with a grin on his face.

“That onna is a genius.” He said as the Sexta Espada sat up.

“Fucking dandy.” He said standing.

He looked down and he was back to his sealed form. He shook himself off and grabbed his zanpakuto. Grimmjow used his sondio and he was in the desert and he was hunting. He killed ten lesser hollows and he went in search of the Vasto Lordes known as Arturo. He found him after a bleak day of searching. He was on the fringes and he was in a spacious hideaway. Arturo was waiting and beckoned him inside. He came in and glared at the other.

“You look worse for wear.” The other commented.

“Fuckers took my boy. I'm gonna rip them apart slowly.” He said frigidly and with incredible malice.

“May I suggest something Grimmjow?” Arturo asked with a smirk.

“Yeah what?” he snapped.

“You obviously have memories locked away. Ulquiorra remembered his life. Remember yours. Reach back and find the power within to master your own reiastu and kill them.” Arturo stated.

“How?” Grimmjow growled.

“You have a connection to your past already. Take back what is yours!” he snarled.

“And how the fuck do I do that?” he asked.

“Take pot shots at them for now. Pick them off.” He said.

“I've got to fucking take out my rivals and I've got to kill Shouten as well.” He said cracking knuckles.

“Shouten provide excellent nourishment.” Arturo replied.

Grimmjow grinned and he began laughing. Arturo opened a garganta and he indicated for him to go. He walked through and he was in Karakura Town. He knew what he was going to do. He was going to send her to the past and he was going to have a reckoning with the shape shifter. He felt a small concentration of spiritual power but it was powerful. His eyes widened when he realized that it was his boy. He appeared on her deck and he saw a dark haired youkai. Osami stood and he opened the door. Grimmjow was ready to strike but Osami put up his hands.

“I'm one of her sons. I am Yamasaki Osami. You're Grimmjow?” he asked.

The kid had his ebony hair cut wild and Grimmjow took him in.

“Yeah. Where's my boy?” he asked with repressed fury.

“Haha is feeding him. Look dude I am sick of my dads pushing her around okay? They have done it for centuries and she takes it.” He said letting him in.

“I ain't gonna fucking take it.” Grimmjow said with a nasty grin.

“Yeah well good luck but your son is cute. Helluva lot of power in one tiny baby though. Haha had him unbound today and I was like whoa!” he said chuckling.

Grimmjow simmered down and he tolerated the kid. He found her feeding Haruya and he kneeled opposite her. He touched his babe and that fierce feeling overtook him again.

“Will you do something for me?” he asked in a hoarse tone.

“Anything.” She said softly.

“Go back. Go back and give me something to hold onto to.” He said clenching his fists.

“What do you mean?” she asked worried.

“Don't worry bout it but do it okay?” he asked.

“Grimmjow you are scaring me.” She said nervously.

“Why'd ya name him Haruya?” he asked tensely.

“Grimmjow.” She said looking away.

“Answer me bitch!” he demanded.

“You carry almost the same name. Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez is Grimmjow Jagaharu.” She said softly.

He pointed to his mark and she closed her eyes and tears fell.

“He calls this the mark of the esposa.” She said.

“Esposa.” He murmured.

He closed his own brilliant blue eyes and he saw blood. He heard himself whisper esposa. She saw his thoughts and she began sobbing. He took Haruya from her and she broke down.

“I know about me?” he asked.

“Sort of. Haru knows that I know Grimmjow.” She said biting her lips.

“Go back.” He snapped and he stood.

“Why?” she asked.

“I wanna see my boy. I deserve to see my boy.” He said as he handed him over.

He used his sonido and he was gone. Tears fell down her face and Osami came in.

“Go Haha.” He said softly.

She held onto her son and she ported to Manchuria. She stepped into the palace and Ang Chi came out. He looked surprised and he came over to see the babe.

“He is precious Mother. Are we going back?” he asked.

“Hai. Is Akemi staying or coming?” she asked.

“She is coming. We have a working theory.” He said softly.

“Grab the fang and grab the beads.” She said and she walked on.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Akemi and Ang Chi stayed behind in dragon lands and Asuna went in search of Jagaharu. She knew his haunts and she actually spied him at his estate. He was alongside some other Yamaneko as they plowed a field. He looked around and he suddenly changed form. He immediately stopped in front of her and his blue eyes held surprise. He saw the bundle in her arms and he changed form. He mouthed the word babe and she nodded. He took the swaddled infant and he looked at him. He was shocked to see that he had the same markings as himself but they were teal.

“Inu?” he asked confused.

“Smell him.” She said.

He scented his juncture and this was his kit. His power was unreal and nothing he had encountered. Grimmjow traced his cheek and he was in awe.

“This kit ain't full youkai.” He said bluntly.

“Why do you say that?” she asked.

“Cause he ain't. What am I in your era?” he demanded.

“You are Grimmjow.” She said simply.

“I ain't me. I mean it's me but it isn't.” he said totally confused.

“You are Grimmjow.” She said as she walked past him.

“What happened?” he asked.

“I was in my home. You came in and I was thrilled to see you. You and I made love and I went into labor. You watched as he was born and it was beautiful.” Asuna replied.

“What is he inu?” he asked.

“He is one quarter inu and one quarter uppyr and half Arrancar.” She stated softly.

“What is Arrancar?” he asked nearing her.

“It is a powerful being. You are a powerful being.” She said closing her eyes.

“What's my name Asuna? Why do ya call me Grimmjow?” He asked hoarsely.

“Grimmjow Jaegerjaquez.” She said as tears fell silently down her face.

“Hunter.” He murmured.

She looked back as he took in the information. She looked at him and he looked saddened.

“When do I die?” he asked.

“You are not dead.” She said bluntly.

“You fucking cry every time I try to bring it up.” He stated.

“Hn.” She muttered.

“Don't fucking hn me! What the fuck am I?” he whispered fiercely.

“Arrancar is a hollow.” She said barely audible.

“Oh my Kamis.” He said completely horrified.

He staggered back and he looked down at his son and held him tightly. He looked at her and she knew he knew what a hollow was.

“I've seen those monsters! They're fucking dead!” he said suppressing his yell.

“Hueco Mundo is another plane Haru. Souls traverse between Soul Society and Hueco Mundo. It is basically another life. There is still death there as well. This is where the Shouten dwell naturally.” She said softly.

“I'm a Kamis damn monster?” he asked grabbing her.

“No! You are an Arrancar. You have retained yourself. Not all hollows can do that.” She said almost pleading with him.

“I named him Haruya.” She said biting her lip.

“Gods what happens?” he asked.

“I don't know. I really don't know.” She said as tears streamed down her face.

“Do I know you? Do I remember my esposa?” he asked urgently.

“No.” she said softly.

“But I'm there and I'm in your life. We have him. I don't fucking remember the onna I've given myself to?” he asked as his eyes reddened.

“Haru stop!” she cried.

“No! You should've stayed away. You shouldn't have come here.” He said stalking away.

“Why?” she cried out.

“Cause if you haven't figured out; I've doomed myself to hell!” he screamed.

Haruya began whimpering loudly and he began crying. Grimmjow held him to his chest and he began purring loudly. She felt the reiastu and she was floored. He felt it too and she suddenly turned when she saw a garganta open. There stood a grotesque monster that leered at Haruya.

“Tasty! So very tasty!” it cried.

“Haru get him back!” Asuna yelled.

Grimmjow jumped up into a tree and Asuna held out her hand and Konkisaiga appeared. The hollow snarled loudly and whipped around with its tail and it smashed into her. She was thrown against a palm tree and she grunted. It opened its mouth and released a cerro and she deflected it. Suddenly the hollow charged straight into her and took a deep and sure bite into her. She screamed and Grimmjow about lost his head. He snarled and yowled in neko and another Yamaneko came. He handed off Haruya and he pulled his own katana. A black blur suddenly appeared and Asuna and Grimmjow were shocked. There stood a shinigami who favored Ichigo but he had black hair and green eyes.

“Suiten sakamake Nejibana!” he yelled.

The reiastu flowed from the odd looking zanpakuto and crashed into the hollow. The shinigami suddenly brought it down and the hollow dissolved. Asuna stood by astonished.

“Damn nasty bugger. Hey you can see me?” the shinigami asked.

“How could we not?” she asked.

“Ah well youkai normally don't pay attention anyway. I still feel a huge amount of spiritual pressure.” He said looking around.

Asuna discreetly pointed to Haruya and the shinigami walked over. He looked at the babe and whistled. He shrugged and was about to shunpo away.

“Who are you shinigami?” she asked.

“Oh sorry! I'm Shiba Kaien.” He said smiling.

“Hello Shiba Kaien. I am Lady Asuna and this is General Grimmjow Jagaharu.” She said.

“Well cool! Okay sorry to bother you but I feel more hollows. Damn what the hell is up?” he asked good naturedly.

She watched him leave and Asuna shook her head. She wondered about his reiastu and she sat down on a rock.

“Damn this hurts.” She said breathing hard.

“That's a hollow?” he asked.

“Hai.” She nodded.

“Shit. I become a fucking monster.” He said shaking his head.

“You are not like that!” she said.

“How'd you figure that? You said when I first met ya that you couldn't reach me. You said I was always angry.” He accused.

“Haru.” She said closing her eyes.

“I betcha you're the reason I become that thing.” He said staring hard.

“That is the cruelest thing you can say to me!” she shouted.

“Think about it! You ain't got a fucking clue what happens to me.” He stated.

“Fine. I will make you forget okay? I can do that and you never need know that you knew me on such a level.” She said fighting back despair.

“Maybe you should do that.” He said bluntly.

The other Yamaneko came forward and handed Haruya to Jagaharu and he stared down at his son. He was actually terrified to think he became anything other then what he was. He breathed in his son's scent; Haruya stretched and scrunched up his little face. He was captivated as his blue eyes opened and focused on him. He made a mewling noise and he sat down.

“He's my boy.” He said in complete adoration.

“Hai.” She said closing her eyes against tears.

He stood up and walked towards the house. She followed him and he gently laid Haruya on the futon. He turned and walked her backwards into the wall. She looked confused and Jagaharu clasped her hands in his.

“What kind of power I got?” he asked.

“What?” she asked shocked.

“Just wondering if I'm strong.” He said ghosting his lips along her lips and jaw.

“What are you doing?” she stated suppressing groans.

“You're mine.” He stated huskily.

“Hai. I'm yours.” She replied with heavy feelings.

The heavy emotion was tearing at them both and Jagaharu pulled her into his arms. He held her tightly and held on to just feel.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Akemi was sitting in her son's study with maps spread out on the floor. Her son watched her amused and she was concentrating so hard.

“Mother, what has gotten you so upset?” he asked.

“Nothing Ryuu. I am just trying to solve a mystery.” She stated.

“What are you wearing?” he asked.

“The are called jeans. They are from your obbasan's era.” She muttered.

“Do all the onna wear as such?” Ryuu asked curiously.

“They wear pants hai.” She said biting her lip.

“May I ask you a question Mother?” he inquired.

“Hai.” She said looking back at him.

“What is going on between you and the inu?” she asked.

“Nothing Ryuu. He is a very good soul. I mean a VERY good soul. He is quite upstanding and rather prude.” She said rolling her eyes.

“I got that impression. Cousin Asuna is not.” He said grinning.

“No my son, she is not. You would have laughed when you saw her and your chichi react to the other. Your chichi came back for me and he saw Touga. Imagine his fury and Asuna told him off.” She said smiling widely.

“Chichi never mentioned the Taisho.” Ryuu said.

“Old hatred. Your chichi was such an incredible warrior but he respected where I came from. I was the grand pup of the Inu no Taisho and I bore Ryukotsusei; Lord of the Dragon Clan, his heir.” She shrugged.

“Such a rebel.” He teased.

“Well thank you my son. I try very hard.” She laughed.

Ryuu watched his vixen of a parent and shook his head. He stood up and put his hand on her shoulder. She held his hand and looked back at him.

“Be careful always Ryuu.” She said in a low whisper.

He nodded and he kissed her forehead. He left his study and she began to study the maps more.

“I am prude?” she heard softly.

“Maybe.” She said without looking up.

“Why do you say this Akemi?” Ang Chi asked annoyed.

“I do not allow those of my court to become inebriated.” She said in a low tone in imitation of him.

“That is unfair. Lord Katashi allowed many vices in the Manchu court.” He said bristling.

“Hai he allowed much licentiousness and drunkenness to occur but you are not he are you?” she said meeting his eyes.

“Maybe I am more like him then I thought.” He retorted.

“Maybe so Ang Chi.” Akemi said closing her eyes.

“Why are you trying to pick a fight with me?” he demanded.

“I really do not know.” She sighed.

“Are you always so confused?” he asked raising a black brow.

“Not normally no. When I met Ryukotsusei I was. I never wanted pups and here I was pregnant with a dragon of all things. He always tried to simplify things and I always looked at the bigger picture. He wanted to unite Japan under one rule at one time.” She murmured.

“Noble sentiment but he decimated all in his path.” Ang Chi stated.

“He was young and arrogant just like many Ang Chi. He made many mistakes that he lamented later on. He felt horrid and he attempted to do better.” She said standing.

Ang Chi said nothing and he watched as she began walking out of the study. He followed her and he could see her shoulders shaking as she cried. He came up behind her and placed his hands on her shoulders. He rested his chin on her head and she was feeling so much.

“Akemi?” he asked.

“I have to know what happens.” She whispered.

“We will find the answers.” He whispered.

She turned around and she pulled him down to her lips. He knew he should hesitate and he knew he should refrain but he did not. He picked her up and moved to her nearby chambers. They made it to her futon and they already began shedding their clothes. Soon their bodies were slick with perspiration as they made love. He was kissing the back of her neck as the both felt tremors pulsing through them. Akemi was terrified of what she would find in the ruins on the Ryuku Islands but she allowed sleep to take her as Ang Chi slept beside her. So far they had been discreet but she knew Ryuu had figured it out and she knew Asuna would sooner or later. She pushed back all her bad thoughts as she fell into bad dreams.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Akemi was on the island of Miyako and she stared down a rather high cliff. She could see the water all around and she looked back at Ang Chi.

“Are you okay?” she asked amused.

“Hai. I hate heights.” He said in irritation.

“Poor baby.” She teased.

“Kamis onna you are a little close to the edge.” He stated nervously.

“Ang Chi it would take more than a spill to kill me.” She laughed.

“Akemi back off of the cliff.” He demanded.

“Okay okay!” she said stepping back.

“Thank you.” He said sighing in relief.

“You worry too much and you take too much on yourself. You are still too young to have that kind of nervousness.” Akemi said as she came close.

He clasped her hand in his and kissed the back of her hand. He sighed and released her appendage. He turned to descend down the small mountain and she stared out.

“Akemi? Are you coming?” he asked.

“Hai.” She said distantly.

“What is it you are sensing?” he asked.

“Not sure.” She muttered.

She turned and followed him down the narrow path. She kept sensing a menacing feeling but could not place it. She sighed as she walked slowly down.

“How did you become uppyr?” he asked.

“You do not know the story?” Akemi asked surprised.

“A little.” Ang Chi answered.

“Well it was before Vlad showed up. Daichi had just asked me to mate him and I was fixing to say hai but a nasty uppyr got a hold of me. He damn near drained me dry and I was in a sort of coma. Aunt Augusta came and she had not realized I was so far gone and in order to save me, she had to turn me. Bitten uppyr are rare and the legends of the vampires arise around them. Anyway I managed to retain my holy powers. Aunt Augusta bequeathed me some of her yoki as well. In a sense she is my maker.” She shrugged.

“I am sorry.” He said looking away.

“Why? I am happy Ang Chi. I always wanted to be youkai. I hated that I was mostly ningen and I felt more at home in the Western Court anyway. I was trained in the naginata and I am pretty damn good with a bow and arrow.” She laughed.

“I would think that you would have preferred to be mortal.” He said as he turned.

“No. I looked like my chichi. My brothers looked almost completely ningen and I looked hanyou. Do not get me wrong and I adore my mother but I adored my youkai side.” She stated thoughtfully.

“I hate that I am in part Shouten.” He said clenching his teeth.

“You should not. Surely not all of the clans of the Shouten can be bad.” She said taking his hand again.

“The Jings are and so is the tr'Awnhi. I have met a group that is not bad at all but they never leave their plane.” He shrugged.

“Ang Chi stop.” She said suddenly.

“What? Why?” he asked.

Akemi turned to see a sight that terrified her. Behind them was a red dragon and she warily stepped into Ang Chi.

“Who are you?” she demanded.

“How dare you come to my island!” the male dragon snarled as it unfurled its long serpentine body.

“Do you have any idea of who I am?” she asked in fury.

“Akemi be quiet!” Ang Chi snapped.

“Listen to the inu onna!” the dragon chuckled.

“How dare you! I am Higurashi Akemi and I am the Lady of the Dragon Clan.” She said standing her ground.

The dragon moved swiftly and butted his snout straight into her face. He was not a water dragon by any means but Ryukotsusei had been the undisputed ruler of all the dragons in Asia.

“You think I give one damn?” he asked in an angry tone.

“My son is the lord.” She growled.

“Feisty little onna! You say you are the mate of the very dead Ryukotsusei. Prove it!” he laughed rudely.

She pulled her haori from her neck and an old mating mark appeared. The dragon slipped his tongue along her throat and Ang Chi began to growl loudly. The dragon turned his red gaze to Ang Chi and he roared in warning.

“Dragons have sense of smell through their sense of taste Ang Chi.” She whispered.

“Tell him to back off or I will make him.” Ang Chi said as his eyes bled red.

The dragon suddenly curled himself around Akemi and she growled out very loudly at his audacity.

“You birth dragon?” he asked lewdly.

“Both of my sons have the form of a dragon.” She snapped.

“Sons hmm? You must be very beloved of the Dragon Clan. I am Longwei.” He said chuckling.

Her face fell and she slashed at the red dragon suddenly. She was constricted and Ang Chi pulled his fang.

“I will break her in half before you can move inu. You would not want your precious puppy to perish would you?” the Chinese red said in taunting manner.

“What the hell do you mean?” Ang Chi snarled.

“She did not tell you? For shame little onna.” Longwei chuckled.

Ang Chi looked at Akemi and she stared straight ahead.

“So you know my name little onna.” He chuckled more.

“You opposed Ryukotsusei two centuries ago.” She said shaking.

“Oh hai I did. To think I have his precious little onna. He became soft when he fucked you! Mizuchi would have killed his own son for his shame!” Longwei said flashing his eyes.

“You are Chinese and had no say on the islands!” she hissed.

“Oh well that is just too bad Lady Akemi.” He said grinning.

He moved quickly and swiped Ang Chi with his front foreleg. Akemi screamed loudly and Longwei hissed in her face.

“He may get lucky and survive my poison. Now little whore, you are coming with me.” He laughed.

“Ang Chi! Chi!” she said trying to struggle.

She lifted her hand to try and release her purity and he suddenly changed form. He crushed her hand in an iron grip and broke her fingers.

“You think I do not know about you? You must be a witch to snared Mizuchi's son. I am not a water dragon whore!” he said coldly.

He grabbed her naginata and broke it as if it was a twig. She snarled in anger and fury as he turned with unusual speed and knocked her so hard she lost her balance. Akemi was thrown off of the cliff and Longwei looked over the edge at the pile of bones at the bottom of the ravine.

“Do not get haughty with me whore.” He said laughing.

He heard snarling and he looked back to see a black inu with a pulsing blue aura. He was mildly surprised but he chuckled.

“Well you seem to be a fighter. Well good. Most inu are good for nothing but food!” the red said in a righteous laughter.

Ang Chi was horrified at what had happened but he lowered his head to growl and snarl. He charged the dragon and began swiping at him with his burning claws. Longwei was surprised and released a reddish yoki. Ang Chi whined as it hit him but it made him only that much more determined. He changed form in the midst of a jump and he landed on the dragon. He took his fang and plunged it in the leg of the red. Longwei roared in pain and threw him with incredible strength. The dragon limped but pulled his own katana. Their blades clashed and the inu lord surged his yoki through his blade and released it with a huge explosion. It hit Longwei squarely and the overly arrogant red was split wide open. Ang Chi followed up with moving at incredible speed and whirling around. He watched his arm become transparent and he was shocked. He went straight through the red and he yanked his arm back after it became solid again. Longwei screamed and had to change form and move away with supernatural speed. Ang Chi went to his knee and he was panting to catch his breath. He was in terrible pain but he stood. He ported to the bottom of the ravine and he cried out as he came to her side.

“Akemi!” he cried.

She looked over at him weakly and she had not been crying but he could see the pain she was in.

“I am going to port us. Give me a place Akemi! Where is my mother?” he asked.

“Southern Kingdom.” She whispered in a broken tone.

“Okay. Okay.” He said barely touching her.

He actually dipped into her mind and he ported them to a small palace in Naha. Ang Chi looked nervous and Akemi's breathing was labored.

“Help!” he screamed.

Akemi tried and failed to take his hand and he fought back his rage.

“Akemi? Akemi!” he said shouting.

He closed his eyes and he screamed with his soul and minutes passed but his mother appeared. Her eyes widened as she looked at the damage.

“Daichi!” Asuna screamed.

Finally Yamaneko began appearing and Akemi was taken away. Asuna looked at Ang Chi and she helped him up.

“You are bleeding all over. What did you tangle with?” she demanded.

“A dragon.” He muttered.

“Pardon? A dragon attacked Akemi?” she hissed.

“Hai. It was not a Japanese dragon Mother. It was a Chinese beast and he said he knew Mizuchi.” Ang Chi explained in short breaths.

“I need to get you to the modern era. I need to get Akemi there as well but she needs to be stable.” Asuna said frowning.

“Mother, I need to be with her.” He said trying to move.

“Ang Chi not here! She is Akemi of old here and not your lover!” Asuna hissed in inu.

Ang Chi stiffened and he looked at her. She rolled her eyes and stared at him.

“But I…” he tried to say.

“Do not think me stupid son. You were a very good pup but you had a sneaky nature at times. I may have been busy but I knew what you did. I always knew what you did. I can scent her all over you.” Asuna said bluntly.

“I have been discreet!” he said blushing hotly.

“I am half uppyr! You two have spilt blood.” Asuna remarked crossing her arms.

“You are not angry?” he asked sheepishly.

“Do I have room to be angry or to even talk?” she retorted.

“No mam.” He said breathing a sigh of relief.

“Kamis Ang Chi, give me a little credit. She is lovely and she is not your blood. I had to come to terms with Mizuki and Karu; believe me when I say this is much easier to deal with.” She sighed.

“But Kaya.” He mumbled.

“That is your relationship son. I am the mother of adult pups and I need know that.” She said staring straight ahead.

“Thank you Haha and I love you.” He said blushing.

“Use your head please.” She said looking back.

“Should Ryuu know what transpired?” he asked.

“Hai. This involves his kind.” She nodded.

He nodded and tried to port. He looked at her and sat down right where he was.

“Ang Chi?” she asked concerned.

“I cannot port. I used the last bit of yoki to get Akemi and I here.” He said lowering his head in exhaustion.

“I need to get you two to Nobu.” She said as she ported to the dragon castle.

She appeared in the middle of Ryuu's study and he stood up. She bowed quickly and he looked confused.

“Cousin?” he asked.

“You should know that Akemi was attacked and so was Ang Chi. They were attacked by a dragon called Longwei.” Asuna said quickly.

“What? I thought he was dead!” Ryuu said astonished.

“Apparently not. The beads cousin!” she said.

“Hai!” he said porting out then reappeared with the beads.

“Thank you. I am taking your mother to Kagome's era. We will return.” She said as she ported away.

She appeared next to Ang Chi and she handed him the necklace. She ported to Grimmjow's side and he nearly jumped out of spots.

“I have to go.” She said gently taking Haruya.

“Why?” he demanded.

“Because Akemi was attacked along with my son.” She said exasperated.

“Your son?” he asked shocked.

“Ang Chi! Damnit I cannot explain.” She said taking porting away.

She reappeared and Daichi actually came forward. He looked horrified and shocked.

“She is part uppyr! When did she become uppyr?” Daichi asked.

“Daichi, I need to take Akemi to someone who can help her. She took quite a spill.” She murmured.

“She's really bad Lady Asuna. She is barely breathing!” he said nearly shouting.

“Daichi! Use your senses boy and realize things are not quite what they seem. Take me to my cousin and I can save her!” Asuna said snarling.

“Hai!” he said motioning them forward.

Asuna helped Ang Chi up and they followed Daichi. Akemi was on a futon and she looked broken. Asuna barely touched her and had Ang Chi. She ported them all to the well. She looked at the way down and she nodded. She handed Haruya to Ang Chi and she picked up Akemi. Akemi nearly screamed but the two inu jumped down. Asuna managed to direct the magics within the well and she ported them before they hit the ground. They appeared in Yamasaki Hospital and Asuna snarled in Nobu's mind. He appeared out of a shoki cloud and he stared at Akemi's broken body.

“There Asuna! Good Kamis what the hell happened?” he asked.

“She was thrown from a cliff.” Ang Chi answered.

“You Ang Chi need to be seen. I'll send Shinobu. Nanami and I will work on Akemi.” He said wheeling her away.

“Mother, the dragon said she carried my pup.” Ang Chi mumbled in a defeated tone.

“A pup could not survive that much trauma Ang Chi. I am sorry.” She said looking away.

He nodded dumbly and Shinobu showed up. He stared at his big brother and took him to a private room. Ang Chi looked over at his mother and she saw unshed tears in his eyes. He would not openly weep but he was feeling overwhelmed. Asuna sat down in a chair and she was dumbfounded. She looked down at Haruya and she ported out to her beach house. She laid him down and she was thrown backwards though her door to her bedroom. She stared at Hanaj and she began growling.

“You attacked me! You could have killed me and you!” he screamed at her.

“You guarded that sadistic bastard!” she growled again.

“Is this the Arrancar? You were so hell bent on destruction that you put his life in danger?” Hanaj said in a flurry of anger.

“Your brother is the devil!” she hissed.

Haruya was whimpering loudly and Hanaj hissed when he felt the reiastu coming off in waves of the babe. He looked at her in shock and he picked him up.

“Put him down!” she said as her eyes bled to red.

“This boy is a hollow magnet idiot! His reiastu should be bound or he will be eaten by lesser hollows. How could you be so stupid as to put him in danger like this?” he said almost in a growl.

“His sire wanted him unbound.” She said trying to near Hanaj.

“I am sorry Asuna. I love you so damn much but you are a fool but you have no idea how to care for a being of my plane!” he said stepping back.

“Let him go Hanaj!” she said beginning to panic.

“I am sorry. You put his life in danger.” He said suddenly phasing out.

She damn near lost her mind and she began screaming. She ran into her bedroom and grabbed the medallion that opened the gate into Soul Society. She stepped through to find Kurotsuchi and to get into Hueco Mundo.
