Playing With Fire and Ice

 

Saaya was sitting in Toushiro's office and she watched her husband. He smiled at her and she smiled at him.

 

“Why are you looking at me like that?” He asked laughing softly.

 

“I am only thinking that it comes upon our wedding anniversary.” She replied.

 

A member of Squad Ten came in and bowed. He handed a letter to Saaya and she opened it. Her father had written and he had seen her mother. He was lamenting so much and he admitted that he had taken her from the birthing room. She knew the whole of the story but she sighed.

 

“Dearest? Whatever is wrong?” Her shinigami husband asked.

 

“My father saw my mother. They have not gotten along in so long. Lord Kenomaru loves me fiercely and so does my mother. You know I was the cause of their breaking apart.” She said looking down.

 

“Saaya, they are of their own minds. You cannot be held for what others do.” He replied.

 

“I know my sweet husband. I know that but he is my dad.” She said looking down.

 

“Go see your father. He apparently needs you. Little Yuzuna and I will be okay. Ran adores watching her anyway. Seems like the only thing she does well.” He groused.

 

“Matsumoto Rangiku adores you Toushiro. You are lucky in your subordinate.” She laughed.

 

“Go on. I shall see you soon my heart.” He said standing.

 

He pulled her to him and lifted her chin. He kissed her lightly and she smiled. She walked outside and she produced a portal into the living world. She walked through and ported to Mongolia. She entered the palace and she found her father at his desk.

 

“That was quite quick. I only mailed that letter to Japan two days ago.” He said softly.

 

“Hai. The Urahara Shop is quite good about sending me your letters. Father what is wrong? I know the story of my past.” She said taking his hands.

 

“Your mother found me in the past. She still feels for me.” He said looking away.

 

“Why would she not? I adore you.” She teased.

 

“Because it is easier to hate her. It is easier to believe that she hates me in return.” He replied.

 

“Why did you take me away from her?” Saaya asked.

 

“Because I know you were sired by Menomaru. I was not giving either of them a chance of taking you.” Kenomaru said flatly.

 

“You knew?” She asked surprised.

 

“Yes. I have known since you were conceived. I know because I have been unable to sire any but in this case Menomaru owed me. I allowed it to happen. I left purposely and allowed his idiotic self to pursue my mate. He owed me because I saved his sorry life. I could not have your mother but I could have you to myself.” He admitted.

 

“Father?” She said stunned.

 

“Yes. I was a bastard but I realized that I would never have her to myself. I loved her Saaya. I loved her so damn much. I fell in love with her at that damn Tree of Ages. I know what she is and how she is but I wanted my part always. That is what your siblings are to their sires you know; they are the selfish part of their fathers that want the woman.” Kenomaru stated rubbing his temples.

 

“Why could you not sire any children?” She asked horrified.

 

“Injuries I sustained against the youkai from the Shikon no Tama. That was my punishment for taking it but I would do it again because in the end it led to you.” He stated earnestly.

 

Saaya was in shock and she stared at the man that would always be her father. He pulled her into a hug and held her tightly.

 

“Forgive me. I have been selfish but I would never not want you. You are my delight and my salvation. You have made this life worth it.” Kenomaru said into her jade hair.

 

Tears stung her eyes and she realized everything now. Her mother would fly into a fury if she knew and Saaya decided that she would never find out from her. She stayed with her father and her uncle was off in the colonies seeing to the government for the moment. The moth lords shared power and it worked well. She returned to Soul Society later in the evening and she tried to get into the barracks but Squad Two was all over it. She was furious but she tried to remain calm.

 

“Where is Captain Hitsugaya? I am his wife!” She stated.

 

“Squad Ten captain is missing and the members of Squad Ten are confined to barracks until further notice.” The leuitenant of Squad Two said.

 

“Where is my daughter?” She asked horrified.

 

“No idea. That is not my problem.” He said looking at her like she was a bug.

 

“Ran! Rangiku! Where is Zuna? Ran!” She screamed.

 

“Leave lil miss before you are hurt.” The lumbering idiot stated.

 

She tried to port in but there was a barrier. Her blue eyes widened and she slashed across the shinigami trying to get in.

 

“Zuna! I want my baby! Where is my husband?” She said loosing it.

 

“You will be placed under arrest if you do not leave.” Captain Fon said coming closer.

 

“How dare you! What has Toushiro supposedly done?” She cried.

 

“None of your business. This is shinigami business. You need to return to the living world now.” Soi Fon said flatly.

 

Saaya was freaking out and she produced a portal. She walked through and she would go to her mother about this. She appeared at the beach house and she knocked on the door loudly.

 

“Mother! Please mother! Help me!” She said pounding on the door.

 

Asuna opened it and there stood Saaya. She let her in and she looked puzzled.

 

“They have confined Squad Ten to barracks and they are calling Toushiro a traitor. I cannot get in to get little Yuzuna. I do not know where my husband is.” She said worried.

 

“I will ask around. Stay here if you wish.” Asuna said softly.

 

“Yes. Mother please find him. Please.” She said shaking.

 

Asuna nodded and she ported out. She appeared in the Vizard warehouse and she found Shinji. He walked beside her and she looked worried.

 

“Shinji, one of my daughters is married to the current captain of Squad Ten. They have locked down the barracks and he is missing.” She informed him.

 

“They would only do that if treason was suspected.” He stated astonished.

 

“Can you please ask around and found out something and I will search too.” Asuna asked.

 

“Hai. What about Ichigo?” He asked.

 

“I want to avoid Ichigo as much as possible.” She sighed.

 

“Hey I'll go too.” Kensei stated coming closer.

 

“Thank you so much Kensei.” She said watching him closely.

 

“No problem. Keeps the damn punk away.” He groused.

 

He shunpoed away and Shinji snorted softly.

 

“What?” She asked.

 

“I have not seen him this worked up about an onna since we were captains.” He laughed.

 

“When are you and a certain munchkin going to quit playing games and tell each other how much you love the other?” Asuna asked.

 

“What?” He choked.

 

“You know people do not normally show violence unless hatred or deep love is there; just an observation.” She laughed as she ported away.

 

She appeared near the beach and she felt an extremely powerful but strange aura. She saw in the sky a being with dark ebony hair and an Arrancar like mask but the clothing of a shinigami. She produced her yoki cloud and she stood opposite of him.

 

“Who are you?” She demanded.

 

“I am looking for Hitsugaya Saaya.” He said irreverently.

 

“Why do you wish to know where my daughter is?” She demanded.

 

“You daughter? How good for me! Where is she?” He asked laughing.

 

She saw Saaya on the beach and she watched as her daughter lifted her transparent wings and took flight. She floated across from the being and he turned to see the petite, jade haired onna.

 

“I feel like I should know you.” She said in a whisper.

 

“Really? You are the wife of Captain Hitsugaya?” He asked.

 

“Hai. I am Hitsugaya Saaya. Where is Toushiro?” She asked worried.

 

“I am searching for him too.” He laughed.

 

“Why do I feel my husband's zanpakuto?” She asked in a breathy tone.

 

“What you mean Hyorimaru?” He laughed.

 

She watched him pull the zanpakuto and her eyes widened in horror.

 

“Where is Toushiro? What have you done to him?” She asked terrified.

 

“I told you that I did not know but perhaps he will come out for you.” He laughed again.

 

“Saaya! Back away.” Asuna said as she unleashed Konkisaiga.

 

Asuna was suddenly hit with a fire ball and Saaya watched as the tall figure unveiled his mask. A red eyed man watched her and he had a scar on the right side of his gorgeous face.

 

“Who are you? Why do you have Hyorimaru?” She demanded.

 

“You are lovely. Little Shiro grew up I see. I am Kusaka. Kusaka Sojiro at your service. I am a very old friend of your husband. You see it was because of Hitsugaya Toushiro that I was killed.” He said circling Saaya.

 

“Toushiro does not kill without reason.” She said horrified.

 

“Oh well you see we both were able to call upon Hyorimaru. Central Forty Six condemned me to death while Toushiro walked away and he became a captain!” He said with malice.

 

“Where is my baby?” She asked.

 

“I do not know that either, very interesting indeed.” He said suddenly in front of her.

 

Saaya flew back a little and he rather gently lifted her chin. Saaya stared up at him and his aura felt so much like Toushiro. Her blue eyes met his red ones and he gripped her bare shoulders.

 

“What are you?” He asked in a soft whisper.

 

“I am a ga.” She said with a trembling lip.

 

“Do you love Toushiro?” He asked.

 

“Yes.” She said in slight terror.

 

“You are not afraid of me but you are afraid for him?” He asked her gently.

 

“Yes.” She nodded.

 

“I loved Toushiro as my brother too. He and I will have our revenge on Soul Society together. Will you help me?” He asked almost seductively.

 

“I cannot help you. I have been forbidden to interfere in shinigami affairs. Captain General Yamamoto was most clear when we were married.” She said looking up at him.

 

“You really care what that bastard wants?” He growled at her.

 

“I have no wish to cause problems and I cannot find my baby girl. She is only a toddler sir. She is an innocent.” Saaya said shaking.

 

“I was an innocent as well before I was executed by Central Forty Six.” He yelled.

 

He grabbed her to him and he was tormented. She felt awesome power generated by him and she stared up at him.

 

“What have you done? What power do you posses?” She asked suddenly terrified.

 

“The Oin. You know nothing of Toushiro do you?” He asked holding her jaw.

 

“I accept him as he is.” She whispered.

 

“I see. You are so tiny.” He remarked.

 

“What?” She asked confused.

 

“You are so tiny. Toushiro is not much taller then he was but you are tiny.” He said brushing her cheeks with his thumbs.

 

“Where is he? Please I must find him.” She cried.

 

“We will find him together then.” He said grabbing her to him.

 

“You hurt him! I can scent his blood on that blade.” Saaya said getting angry.

 

“I had to show him who I was without the others knowing. I could not let those fools find out but he attacked me.” He said gripping her shoulders tightly.

 

“Because you took this Oin?” Saaya asked.

 

“Hai I took the Oin. I will unite with Toushiro and I will control Soul Society.” He snapped.

 

“He would never do that.” She cried.

 

“You wish to see your child? You help me and you will see her sooner rather then later.” Sojiro said.

 

“I will only help you find Toushiro.” She whimpered.

 

“Good girl.” He said softly.

 

He shunpoed away with her and Asuna had been kept busy with the two Arrancar females. She snarled as she let loose a nami against them and they were slammed with the yoki. She was breathing hard and she looked around for Saaya and she was gone. She panicked and she ported to Mongolia. Kenomaru appeared and he looked ready to fight but he stopped when he saw the look on her face.

 

“Saaya? What happened? Where is Saaya?” He demanded.

 

“Two Arrancar females fought me and something took her. Captain Hitsugaya is missing as well.” She informed him.

 

“Damnit! Of course she would get into trouble with you around.” He hissed.

 

“Shut up! She just came to me. She cannot get to her baby at the moment and her husband is missing! Can you stop with the hatred of me long enough to help our daughter?” She demanded.

 

“Yes.” He growled at her.

 

She ported to Karakura Town and she scented out Kensei. She found him immediately and he looked sour.

 

“Did you face two female Arrancar?” She asked.

 

“No. I faced a very pissed off captain of Squad Ten.” He said brushing ice off of his arms.

 

“Kensei are you alright?” She asked nearing him.

 

“Hai. Who's the ga?” He asked.

 

“This is Lord Kenomaru. He is Saaya's father.” She murmured.

 

“Bastard.” Kensei said staring at the ga lord.

 

“I care not one whit for your opinion former ningen. You are nothing to me but a mere buzz upon the wind. Buzz buzz.” Kenomaru said narrowing his eyes.

 

“Shut up Kenomaru!” She snarled.

 

“No! She is mine Asuna. If anything happens to her I will wrap you so tightly in my silk you will think pain.” He growled.

 

“Back off bug boy.” Kensei stated pulling his zanpakuto.

 

“Where did Captain Hitsugaya go?” Asuna asked.

 

“He shunpoed away. I'm surprised that such a young shinigami is a captain but he's damn powerful.” The vizard stated.

 

“Hai he is. I will try and scent his blood. There are two Arrancar females running around helping what appears to be a shinigami but he is not. He wields a zanpakuto that looks almost exactly like Captain Hitsugaya.” Asuna informed him.

 

“Impossible! Only one shinigami can wield one zanpakuto.” He said shocked.

 

“I am only telling you what I saw Kensei.” She said softly.

 

“Gotcha. I'll keep looking. Shinji and Hiyori are looking as well.” He stated as he walked by her.

 

Kensei barely touched her fingers but Kenomaru noticed the brief interaction. Hatred filled his veins but he kept silent. The other male was gone and he turned to her. He slapped her forcefully and she grabbed his hand.

 

“Do not touch me. Do not ever touch me.” She growled.

 

“Why not? He just did!” He said dangerously.

 

“Bite me jackass!” She snapped.

 

“Bend over bitch.” He retorted.

 

She stormed away and lifted her nose. She felt her heart clenching painfully in the memories of their union. Asuna wanted to lash out against him but Saaya was more important.

 

“I hate you. I wish you had died with your sire.” She said in a pain filled voice.

 

“One more moth on the list of inu conquests. You stupid bitch. I cannot fathom how I could have ever felt anything for you.” He said in a cruel tone.

 

“You just wanted to experience something different. Ga females are boring and nothing. You are about as horrid as they come. I cannot believe I thought ill of Menomaru!” She said staring at him.

 

“I know you fucked him too. Right after your awakening I believe.” He said staring at her hatefully.

 

“Go home! I will find Saaya on my own!” She said slapping him.

 

“Do that again Asuna. Do it again.” He said as his eyes slowly bled crimson.

 

She suddenly had Konkisaiga appear and she slashed his chest. He hissed as he pulled his own weapon. Their blades clashed but she was older and more versed then the last time they fought almost four centuries ago. The metal clashed and they were cutting into each other. She was blinded by tears and she unleashed her yoki. He had to move fast as he knew how deadly she could be. He released a flurry of moth poison and she began coughing heavily. He released his silk and she was burned horribly. She flung a huge nami at him and it slammed him into a building. He was smashed through solid brick and glass. He hurt in so many places and they both were physically hurt.

 

“I hate you!” She screamed.

 

“The feeling is mutual.” He said in pain.

 

She ported away and he had to as well. He staggered into his home and he called upon a healer. Menomaru appeared and he was shocked.

 

“What the hell did you face?” He asked surprised.

 

“Your fuck buddy.” He growled.

 

“Pardon me?” His older twin asked in anger.

 

“Asuna. I faced Asuna. Saaya is missing along with her husband and my grand child.” He growled.

 

“Kenomaru! Do not go around facing off one of the strongest youkai that is alive.” His twin stated.

 

“I am no slouch Menomaru. Find Saaya!” He snarled at the healer came in.

 

“Yes.” Menomaru stated in a deep sigh.

 

Kenomaru watched as his identical twin ported away. He felt wretched and he asked for the most potent vodka they could bring him. His feelings for the inu princess were in such a tumult that he could not think. He had ended up being riddled with jealousy and he had brought it upon himself in his pursuit of her. He had known her status but he had convinced himself he could sway her. He had convinced himself of much. He proceeded to drink himself into a coma like sleep so that his injuries could heal.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna could not think straight as she had Shinobu fix her injuries. He knew better then to ask but he was concerned.

 

"I fought Kenomaru. He is so hateful of me." she said in answer to his thoughts.

 

"Haha, you will never make him happy. Forget him." he sais exsasperated.

 

"Easy for you to say. When will you settle down?" She demanded.

 

"Haha not this again! I am quite happy with my life." he muttered.

 

"You act so much like your sire when he was younger!" She growled softly.

 

"Well I am his son." he retorted.

 

He healed her and she went home. She needed rest and she had the vizards searching for Saaya. She passed out and she felt anguish.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////

Wen and Wenling were hanging around the apartment building and they caught sight of the basilisk, Gabrielus. They were stalking the white reptile and they had talked to Yuzuna. Wen began walking next to him and he looked over at her.

 

"May I help you femmina?" he asked with a senuous smirk.

 

"I think it is me that can help you basilisk." she purred.

“Oh really?” He asked crossing his arms.

 

“Hai. You are pretty for a reptile.” Wen stated with a grin.

 

“For a reptile? How many reptilian daemons do you know?” Gabrielus asked.

 

“A few. Shall I tell you a secret?” She asked leaning forward.

 

“Oh please do, si.” He grinned.

 

“I am part uppyr. Your kind just loves uppyr right?” She said running her curved claws up his arm.

 

“Si. Uppyr and basilisk go quite well together.” He stated.

 

“Byakko tigers are mythic in that we are revered as gods. My sire was awesome and he loved my mother passionately. How do you love?” She asked grinning.

 

“I do not love so much as have lust.” He smirked.

 

“Poor little reptile.” Wenling purred coming up behind him.

 

“Little? No femmina I am quite grown.” He stated with a grin.

 

“Oh we have a smart ass Wen. Did you really put Rina in her place?” Wenling said in his ear.

 

Gabrielus was quite taken with the tiger twins and they were highly flirtatious. They ended up in their sister Hibari's lounge and they were plying the basilisk with liquor. He kept drinking and they appeared as though they were. They were very much into games and lovely, arrogant men made their day but Wen was entranced by him; Wenling was along for the ride. They kept their antics well hidden and they made their grandsire Chen look quite pious. Gabrielus could not understand why they still seemed sober and he truly had not been this way in thousands of years.

 

“Why are you still sitting straight?” He asked Wen.

 

“Umm because I am not drunk. Are you inebriated?” She asked grinning.

 

“Si. I am quite sloshed.” He giggled.

 

“Poor thing.” Wenling coohed.

 

“How much have I had?” He asked confused.

 

“That whole bottle of sake by yourself.” Wen said running a hand up his thigh.

 

“You are making a pass at me, si?” He asked.

 

“Hai.” Wenling laughed.

 

“I need my bed femmina. I am no good at the moment.” He said trying to stand.

 

“Wen, he needs help.” Wenling said grinning.

 

“Are you trying to teach me a lesson? I assure you I may not remember this.” He laughed.

 

“Oh you will remember us.” Wen stated quite seriously.

 

Wenling pulled them into her shoki and they appeared in the apartment that Gabrielus shared with Amedeo and Adrastus. Wen pushed Gabrielus on the bed and she bit her lip. Rina had been quite humiliated by this male and they intended to give him quite a demonstration. Wenling pulled out a silk scarf and tied his hands behind his back. He realized he was in trouble when he felt sudden cold in his body.

 

“Is this payback for your bitch sister?” He asked in a cold tone.

 

“Maybe.” Wen said running her raspy tongue along his ear.

 

A shudder went down his spine and they stripped him. Wenling stared at him quite boldly and he felt like he was on a serving platter the way he was being stared at.

 

“We are powerful tigresses. We are not the norm in the tiger world. We can amplify and concentrate our yoki. It is an amazing thing being a mirror twin.” Wen said.

 

“That is all good and well but what does it have to do with me?” The white basilisk asked getting angry.

 

“You are an arrogant boy.” Wenling said sliding against him.

 

“Leave me be.” He growled.

 

“No.” Wen said grinning.

 

Wen slowly stripped from her sweater and jeans. She ended up straddling him and he watched her carefully with his pale green eyes. Wenling suddenly took his lips in a devastating kiss. He was dizzy from the alcohol and her mouth as she made him moan heavily. Gabrielus began rasping heavily as the other twin lowered herself onto him. He snapped his hips to get in deeper. She shut her eyes as Wenling continued to ravish his lips. Wen met his thrusts until he was close and she moved off of him. He growled in fury and his eyes were strangely mixed in his lust.

 

“You little tease!” He hissed.

 

“Hai. Wenling?” Wen asked grinning.

 

“Hai sister? Shall I finish off pretty boy here?” She asked laughing softly.

 

“Nasty bitches!” He howled in fury.

 

“You need more?” Wenling asked smirking almost too sweetly.

 

“I think I tire of your disgusting little game.” He snapped.

 

“Oh?” She laughed softly.

 

She laid him back and she lay on her side facing him. Wen moved behind him and he was sandwiched between both twins. The heat was amazing as they pressed against him. He was again so dizzy that he could not seem to stop the spinning. Wenling began kissing and he felt lips nipping the back of his neck. The white basilisk was lost in the sea of feelings and the twin kissing his lips pressed her groin to his. Wen guided his hip and he was enveloped again in the glorious heat. He made a snarling noise again and Wenling nibbled his lips.

 

“Are you alright?” She murmured in a hazy tone.

 

“NO! Gods you evil femmina.” He growled as he tried to press into her more.

 

He choked and he released a deep, guttural groan. Wen had silenced him as she carefully slipped a finger to slowly massage against his prostate. Actually the twins were just being risqué and enjoying the rather exotic beauty between them. Wen continued on with her ruthless pleasuring of him and Wenling pulled away and she began to run her tongue down his throat till she reached a flat nub. She teased it with her teeth and her tongue and the basilisk made strange noises as he was becoming overloaded. She continued to nibble the piece of pale flesh and he was making incomprehensible noises. She slipped her leg between his and she took him in her again. She latched her fangs around the juncture and nibbled as she moved against him. He was so ready that his lungs burned. Never had femmina done such a thing to him. Wen unbound him and his hands cupped the breasts of the one who was actually connected to him. The other twin was beyond ruthless in her quest to make him see stars. Wenling sank her fangs in a little and she began sucking hard. It set off a chain reaction and he slammed his hips against hers as he was overtaken in the most powerful climax in his long life. He was stiff as his seed left him and he made a cry that sounded like a wounded mammal. Wen licked along the fang marks of her sister. She seemed in her own manner of bliss and he realized it was their connection. He was fuzzy headed as they were nipping at his skin.

 

“You do this often?” He asked trying to clear away the effects of the incredible bliss.

 

“Honestly no. One of our sisters said you were a challenge.” Wen stated in his ear.

 

“Oh which one?” He asked in an exhausted tone.

 

“Yuzuna.” Wenling replied.

 

“Adrastus's femmina?” He asked stunned.

 

“Hai. She said you needed a lesson. She told us you did not think you could handle two onna.” Wen said licking along his ear.

 

“Really? What are you doing?” He asked as Wen wrapped her hand around his girth.

 

“My turn. You really are gorgeous you know. Have you warmed up any?” She asked in a husky tone.

 

“Femmina I need a little rest.” He protested.

 

“No, I want you now.” She pouted.

 

“You will make me in a coma!” He said growling in a passionate tone.

 

“So? We can guard you as you sleep.” Wenling said using her tail to drag along his skin.

 

“Femmina why do this?” He said rasping.

 

“Because I wanted to. We saw you the other day and you are so pretty.” Wen said in his ear and made him shiver.

 

“Pretty?” He asked in a daze.

 

“Hai. So pretty.” Wen said groaning as she licked along his belly.

 

“Do you prefer males or females?” Wenling asked.

 

“No preference.” He gasped.

 

“Truly?” Wen asked surprised.

 

“Si. I pursue who I like.” He said gripping her tightly.

 

“We like you basilisk. She saw you when you first came here. So beautiful.” Wenling said whispering in his ear.

 

Wen had actually been quite entranced but she had talked her sister into this. She met the pale green eyes of Gabrielus and he was entranced. This was the one who had caused this and she was exploring him more vigourously then her twin. She took his lips again and she lazily kissed him. He growled softly into it and she began purring loudly. It was so incredibly erotic and she teased him as she explored his mouth. She slowly released him and she encouraged him to move. He was truly beyond exhausted but he slid down her body and he tasted her center. He shut his eyes and she had a distinct taste. She was incredibly sweet and it was reminiscent of an uppyr. Her thighs quivered a little and it was apparent she was enjoying his attention. Gabrielus moved back up her body and he leaned against her. She pulled him so that his lean body was pressed against her scorching one.

 

“I want you.” She breathed.

 

“Si.” He said again very dizzy.

 

She had a grip on backside and he slipped into her heat. She met and encouraged his sluggish movements. She felt overwhelmingly amazing as he moved slowly. He was bordering on utter exhaustion and he realized he was going to shatter. He was going to explode unlike he ever had. She was causing shivers of pure bliss and delight down his spine as he felt small waves passing through him. He knew this was the uppyr in her and it was causing such a profound response from him. He groaned and whined as the most pure type of euphoria overcame his senses and she carefully guided his mouth to her ample chest. He began to suckle her slowly as he began one long, massive orgasm. Her curved claws dug into him as he jerked against her. She quivered around him and he collapsed. He was so bleary eyed and they could have sacrificed him to any of their gods at the moment as far as he cared. Wen's hand ran through his white hair and his eyes were heavy.

 

“Sleep?” She asked.

 

“Si.” He mumbled.

 

“Do you want me again?” She asked softly.

 

“Si. Very badly.” He said closing his eyes.

 

Wenling smirked at her sister and they had conquered this male. He was snoring softly and Wen grinned. She intended to wake him up and show him exactly what a mammal could do.

 

Gabrielus woke a little while later and only Wen slept next to him. His body was weak from the incredible exertion and he needed to hunt and the sun. It was still the middle of the night so a shower would have to do. He managed to stand and drag himself to the adjoining bathroom. Wen lifted her head and she slipped from the bed too. She came behind and turned on the water. He was so out of it that he had not felt her approach. She pulled him into the steaming water and he groaned as the heat seeped into his body.

 

“They make what they call uv lights. I think even a tanning bed would be good for you all.” She murmured as she automatically began to wash his body.

 

“What is a tanning bed?” He asked softly.

 

“It is a modern device that can simulate the sun.” She murmured in his ear.

 

“I shall speak with my rex about it.” Gabrielus managed.

 

The hot water was soothing to him and she began to kiss him in nips. He lifted his hands hold her face and he was getting intensely needy. She pressed him against the side of the shower and she met his eyes.

 

“What do you want from me femmina?” He asked breathlessly.

 

“I want to know more about the pretty reptile.” Wen said smiling a little.

 

“You keep calling me pretty. I was a fierce warrior.” He murmured.

 

“Yet you ooze sex every time you move?” She asked smiling widely.

 

“My country, we were open.” Gabrielus remarked.

 

“Hai I could figure that out. Yuzuna told me that they found you and you changed form; you were nude. She said she was rather impressed with your, how shall we say, your assets?” She laughed in a lilting tone.

 

“Your sister radiates purity.” He said almost miffed.

 

“We are of a royal line sir. Mother is the heir and a princess. Yuzuna's sire was Sir Yuuta and he was well known for courting the noble bitches at court. Yuudai was his eldest son and he was Mother's best friend and eventual general. They finally mated but he was killed in a battle with the Ming Dynasty. Mother actually executed her own grandmere for her traitorous actions in the West. She also killed my obbasan's parents in Eastern Europe. My own parents were enemies at one time but they were attracted to the other the whole time. My Ba kidnapped my mother outside of Sapporo and they began cat and mouse games.” She said as she washed his body.

 

“So your family has many secrets?” He asked closing his eyes.

 

“Not so much secrets as lots of baggage.” She laughed.

 

“Your father you call Ba?” He asked.

 

“Hai. Ba was the crown prince of Hunan. My jii-chan's name is Chen and he fell in love with my obbasan in the West. They had a love affair and they had Masami. Well of course jii-chan Sesshomaru was really pissed off. So my Ba and Haha share a sister.” Wen said beginning to wash her hair.

 

“Your courts are just as licentious as ours was, no?” He asked groaning softly as she brushed against him.

 

“Hai. Gabrielus you are so beautiful.” She whispered.

 

“Thank you. You are more so.” He said pulling her to him tightly.

 

“I know of some all night tanning salons, should you like to `sun' yourself?” She asked lightly.

 

“Si.” He nodded.

 

They finished their shower and Wen put on her clothes. He noticed that her tail seemed to be missing at the moment.

 

“Cloaking magics. I heard your thoughts.” She laughed merrily.

 

He was amazed yet still too tired to show it. She ported them to an all night parlor and she showed him how to use the tanning bed. She was pacing as he “sunned” himself and he emerged looking much more awake.

 

“Thank you femmina! I have to tell Amedeo about this.” He stated quite excited.

 

“Hai well I can be smart occasionally.” She teased.

 

He looked back at her and he was truly taken with her. He walked up to her and pinned her to the wall.

 

“I am demanding. I do not allow my lovers to have others. If we stay involved then I become possessive.” He warned her.

 

“Really? I hear you enjoyed one of my brothers.” Wen stated quite seriously.

 

“That was a one time deal and he made his interest clear.” He retorted.

 

“Are you allowed to have others?” She asked running fingers along his jaw.

 

“I have not been in a relationship for a long while femmina.” Gabrielus replied flatly.

 

“How many of your relationships were male?” She asked curiously.

 

“Does it matter? Shall I ask how many you and your sister have shared?” He replied raising a white brow.

 

“When we were younger that is all we did. It is difficult to be apart from her but as we age some it is easier.” She replied.

 

“I have only had serious relationships with two males. They were both basilisk.” He answered softly.

 

“Did you love them?” Wen asked.

 

“Si.” He said looking down.

 

“Something bad happened?” She asked gently.

 

“Everything bad happened in Latium femmina. Valerian was my first love.” He said suddenly uncomfortable.

 

“Did you find an onna that you loved?” She asked.

 

“Josephina.” He replied looking almost sick.

 

“I will ask no more.” Wen said threading her hands into his hair.

 

“Josephina was supposed to have my child. She died in childbirth.” He said pulling away.

 

“Were you married to her?” She asked surprised.

 

“Si. Duality is common amongst pure reptiles. I was not strange and I loved her very much.” Gabrielus sighed.

 

“I am so sorry.” She said in a sad voice.

 

“Please no. It happened very long ago.” Gabrielus stated.

 

“Why do you cover up your feelings?” She inquired.

 

“Because it hurts femmina. I have a long history and in order to survive, I react the way I do.” He murmured.

 

“What happened exactly in Latium?” She demanded.

 

“I do not know you well enough. I have no need to relive the tragedies that befell my kind. Thank you very much for a pleasant time and the information of that bed. Pardon me.” He said trying to phase away.

 

She grabbed his hand and they appeared back in his room. He looked annoyed with her and he crossed his arms.

 

“Do not push this topic femmina. I am not to be trifled with.” He snapped.

 

“I wish to know you is all! I know my behavior was a little risqué but you were not responding to subtle hints.” She said crossing her arms.

 

“Your materna flatly told me to stay away from you.” He growled.

 

“Oh really? Well I am an adult and I can see whom I wish and I shall do as I wish! My Haha has the same problem that her own sire does; she does not seem to know when to let go with certain ones of her children. She has always been way over the top protective of us cubs.” Wen snapped.

 

“Why is that?” He asked curiously.

 

“Ba is dead. Ba died with her in the Boxer Rebellion. He was killed by ningen and that was the second time he had been killed. I think she is terrified she will loose us too.” Wen stated sighing.

 

“I can see her point. Stay away from me. I have no wish to change who I am for anyone, si.” He stated flatly.

 

“I ask you questions and you close off. Brilliant Gabrielus.” She said softly.

 

“Do not dare! You have had your fun now you may go.” He growled at her.

 

“You only make yourself that much more interesting by thwarting me.” She said bluntly.

 

“Sex is just sex femmina. It can be enjoyed and no messy feelings involved. Please remember the enjoyment and leave me alone.” He said narrowing his beautiful green eyes.

 

“I will figure you out basilisk.” She snapped at him.

 

“You will hit a brick wall as they say. I thank you again for the information and the incredible coupling.” He said kissing her knuckles and he suddenly left his room.

 

She was annoyed and she followed him. She saw the red and black haired basilisk king stumble out of his room and he seemed surprised to see her. Gabrielus looked angry as she refused to leave him alone. Adrastus too came out and he looked tired.

 

“You can leave now femmina.” The white said flatly.

 

“I will go where I want basilisk. My family owns this building and I am a princess. What were you? Were you not just a general?” She asked pursing her full lips.

 

“That is not so femmina.” Amedeo said yawning.

 

“Then what was he?” She demanded.

 

“He was a noble in my kingdom. Adrastus was a minor prince. Where is your materna?” He asked yawning more.

 

“Dealing with shit.” Wen said crossing her arms.

 

“When is she not dealing with things. Alright I am going back to bed.” Amedeo said stumbling back to his room.

 

“How are you so awake?” Adrastus asked yawning.

 

“Tell you later.” Gabrielus stated.

 

“Femmina, have you seen your sister?” He asked.

 

“I got word that things are a mess in Soul Society. I will find out exactly what and let you know. Yuzuna is married to a captain so it can get complicated.” Wen said softly.

 

“Si and thank you.” He bowed and went back to his room.

 

“Please leave.” He said growling when Adrastus shut his door.

 

Wen slipped closer and she pressed against him. He was irritated but his eyes began to simmer as her tail slipped into his sleep pants.

 

“You have so much control over that thing.” He stated as she brushed the furry appendage against him.

 

“Hai I do. Gabrielus I just want to know you.” She said softly.

 

“I do not need to be known. If you wish to be loosely tied then that is agreeable. If you wish to make lots of passionate amor then even better but I do not need to be known.” He said flatly.

 

“Then I get to see whomever?” She said.

 

“No.” He snapped.

 

“Oh I see. The modern term is booty call. I suppose that is alright. See you around.” She said stepping back and producing her shoki mist.

 

Gabrielus was not used to such a forward femmina but he enjoyed the sex. He sighed and he saw Amedeo beckon him into his bedroom. He followed his king and he sat at the foot of his rex's bed.

 

“Si?” He asked.

 

“What is going on?” He demanded.

 

“I believe the term is tag teamed my rex. The feline twins got hold of me and plied me with alcohol. I allowed myself amor but she wanted to ask questions.” He replied.

 

“Are you stupid?” Amedeo asked.

 

“My rex; you have always been good and I have never had to explain myself. I have no wish to complicate anything and I just want to enjoy a little mindless pleasure.” He shrugged.

 

“I see. How is it you are not sleepy?” He asked intensely curious.

 

“They make something called sun beds. They have trapped sunlight in these things and by the Gods I was rejuvenated.” Gabrielus replied.

 

“I must see that we get one. That would be fantastic. I want to see my femmina.” Amedeo pouted.

 

“She owns other properties my rex.” His general answered.

 

“I do not know where that damn beach house is.” He snapped.

 

“Call her.” Gabrielus said amused.

 

“I hate that thing.” He growled.

 

“I will call her.” He laughed.

 

Gabrielus picked up the phone by the bed and dialed the number of Asuna's cell phone. She answered and the basilisk general handed the phone to Amedeo.

 

“Femmina? What is wrong? Why do you sound as such? What has happened? Asuna answer me!” Amedeo growled out.

 

He listened for a few minutes and she hung up. He looked angry and he stood up.

 

“Go to her eldest daughter and ask her to take me to her materna.” Amedeo asked.

 

“Si.” Gabrielus said standing.

 

He phased out and a few minutes later Mizuki appeared with the white. She looked grumpy but she grabbed Amedeo and ported them to Karakura Town. They appeared in the house and she ported away. Amedeo found Asuna on her bed and she was just laying there.

 

“You did not need to come here Amedeo.” She said softly.

 

“You have been injured.” He said as he sat by her.

 

“Hai. The next to the youngest daughter of my eldest pups is now missing. I fought her sire and his silk is very toxic. I will be fine within a day or two.” She explained.

 

“Why did you fight femmina?” He asked softly.

 

“Because the ga twins have done nothing but cause my family issue. My grand sire Touga fought their father the Hyoga. My hanyou uncle killed Menomaru who is Kenomaru's twin brother, are you following?” She asked.

 

“Si.” He nodded.

 

“There used to be a jewel of tremendous power. It was created when many youkai and one powerful miko named Midoriko fought. She and the youkai spirits fought on within the jewel itself. The Shikon no Tama was then passed from powerful miko to powerful miko. My Aunt Kagome is known as the Shikon Miko. My mate Naraku was after the jewel to make himself a full youkai.” She said gently.

 

“He is a half daemon?” Amedeo asked surprised.

 

“Hai. This is terribly long story but the quicker version is that Naraku was defeated but I enabled him to live. We became lovers then mates. The Shikon supposedly disappeared but my mother retrieved it and hid it for a century. That was the time frame in which I was born. I fought Kenomaru when I was barely an adult when he was paying respects to his sire and Menomaru. I did not see him for nearly four decades and he showed back up. The jewel also had gone missing and he had accidently unleashed the youkai from the Shikon. His name was Magatushi. Kenomaru wanted to draw out my uncle and avenge his twin. He also admitted to having a fascination for me. I found him in England and we ended up starting an affair. He gave me back the Shikon and I ended up fighting Magatushi. I also went back and helped stop his brother. They came back and Kenomaru and I had an on again and off again relationship. A little over a century and half ago Kenomaru went to the ga colonies in Europe and Menomaru pursued me. I gave in stupidly and he begot me pregnant with Saaya. We never told Kenomaru and we passed her off as his. When I birthed her; he took her from the birthing room. I have not had a relationship with him since.” She said as a few tears fell down her face.

 

“Femmina! I am so sorry.” He said horrified.

 

“I was stupid. Ga and inu do not get along and they are powerful taiyoukai. I loved him and kept him secret. I think that hurt him badly and I think he felt I was ashamed of him. I was in fear of my kumo mates killing him. Kumo and ga are natural enemies; Ishin would have tried to kill him. Amedeo, I make you look like a saint.” She said as she wiped away tears.

 

“You should have spoken all this to him.” Menomaru stated from the window.

 

Amedeo jumped up and his arm shifted to his reptile form. Menomaru sneered as he stepped down.

 

“Kenomaru sent you?” Asuna asked.

 

“Yes. He is furious with you as am I. How could you let Saaya be taken?” He growled.

 

“You two seem to forget that she is an adult and she has a child of her own.” Asuna growled in return.

 

“I want to find my girl Asuna.” He snapped.

 

“Get the hell out of my life! You two are nothing but poison. Get out!” She screamed.

 

“Neither of us have gotten over you. You come back and you show up in my life. You make love to me and tell me you love me in return.” He snapped.

 

“You also refused to come to me! You refused me Menomaru. You both demanded and you took and you got and I lost.” She said beginning to sob.

 

“Oh shut it inu bitch. You are so good at making others adore you. Make another move reptile and I will skewer you. Ask this woman how good moths are at fighting.” He sneered.

 

“You speak again to her or to me insect and I will devour you, si?” Amedeo said in anger.

 

“I will help search her out. Kenomaru should never have sought you out. You accuse us of poison but it is you. You dogs are nothing but worthless canines.” Menomaru said leaving.

 

Asuna moved so fast that she shoved Menomaru forward. He whirled on her and he stared at her coldly. She began flinging nami after nami at him. He moved quickly but she was furious. Amedeo ran to the window and he saw her face off with the moth.

 

“You both stole my little girl! I have done what I can within my circumstances to try and reach you! You two both are the ones who made the decisions and it was never me!” She snarled.

 

“I know for a fact that even your spider lord and the dark hanyou told you that loving you was too hard. You are not worth the effort. The only good thing you manage is to provide beautiful and wonderful children. You yourself are rotten down into your heart and by the Gods I am shocked you did not burn in hell for your sins.” Menomaru snarled in return.

 

She stabbed him in the chest with her claws and she released her Dakkasou in huge amounts. He yelped in pain and fell back.

 

“You sorry bastard! It was me that insisted we go back to save you. It was me that got my throat slit by you no less and you have the gall to sit her and espouse this dribble? It was you and your father that attacked the islands but it was me that restored your worthless self!” She snarled.

 

His green eyes were wide and he jerked her forward. His kiss seared her and she whimpered as he lost his senses. He pulled his lips from hers and pressed his cheek to her warm one.

 

“I should have killed you and saved us all this drama.” He said coldly.

 

He suddenly shoved a small dagger into her side and she slid down him. Tears stung his eyes and he was embittered.

 

“You will not take my family from me. You come between us no more. Saaya is moth. You are nothing to any of us.” He said porting away.

 

She choked up blood and Amedeo made it to her side. She looked at him with such pain filled eyes that it hurt to see. He had no idea where the hospital was and the pool of blood was widening.

 

“Femmina channel me. Channel my power.” He commanded.

 

“He knew right where to stab me.” She grunted.

 

“Bastardo!” He snarled.

 

“He cut my liver.” She whispered hoarsely.

 

“Tell me who to call!” He said roughly.

 

“My pocket. My cell phone. Push the green button and it will bring up log. The third number is Nobu. The second number is Shinobu. The third number is Kensei.” She said passing out.

 

He pressed the damn buttons and he pressed the green one twice. A voice came on and he spoke his simple Japanese. Nobu appeared and he was horrified.

 

“What in the hell? What did this?” He asked.

 

“A moth.” Amedeo answered.

 

“Damnit.” Nobu said picking her up.

 

He created a shoki cloud and Nobu took Asuna through. Amedeo followed and Nobu laid her on a gurney. Shinobu came up and he looked shocked.

 

“Where the hell is Nanami?” Nobu demanded.

 

“I have not seen her in two days.” Shinobu said concerned.

 

“Basilisk I need your help. I need my daughter found and I need you to go to her siblings. I think the Arrancar must have taken her again.” Nobu replied.

 

“Si.” He nodded.

 

He watched as they took her away and he was shocked at the drama. His own past was very similar and he sighed. He ported to the building and he looked forward to being useful.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Saaya was with the former shinigami for a couple of days and he spoke very little. He was so beautiful and she was coming to hate the Soul Society with a passion.

 

“You are staring at me Missus Hitsugaya.” Sojiro stated.

 

“I am sorry. Please call me Saaya.” She murmured.

 

“Toushiro found himself a lovely onna. I am happy for him.” He said staring straight ahead.

 

“Thank you. Where have you gone when you have left?” She asked softly.

 

“Part of my plan. The less you know the better.” He said in a guilt ridden tone.

 

“It was horrid what they did. I am so sorry you suffered.” She blurted out.

 

“I would have made an excellent shinigami too but Little Shiro was the boy genius.” He said in a soft voice.

 

“You love him and hate him at the same time.” She said in understanding.

 

“Little onna you are too sweet. Get away from me.” He said in a wretched tone.

 

“I have to find Toushiro. You hurt him. I understand you hatred and your anger but you hurt him.” She said clinging to his haori.

 

“He has to help me. I need him to avenge us!” He said in a crazed tone.

 

“Please Sojiro. I will help you. I am strong. I am a warrior princess. Please let me help you but help me find Toushiro.” She pleaded.

 

“You are so pretty Lady Saaya.” He said reaching for her.

 

“They are evil. I get that. It was not your fault that you and Toushiro had Hyorimaru. It is not your fault at all! There are ways of subverting them without hurting those who could help you.” She cried softly.

 

“How?” He asked.

 

“They have imprisoned someone of great power. He could wage a war against them. He could help you.” She said imploring him.

 

Sojiro was not completely right after his execution but he recognized a good soul. He recognized that Toushiro had something else that he did not have. He actually lifted up the tiny female and he sat her on a park bench. She made a noise and his breath was hot against her cheek.

 

“You would interfere to help avenge me?” He asked shocked.

 

“Honor is what is important. Soul Society has rules that hurt their peoples. The Bount were their fault. Aizen was in a way their fault. You are their fault.” She cried softly.

 

He leaned closer and his lips hovered over hers. She was shaking like a leaf and he did not kiss her.

 

“You want something in return.” He asked softly.

 

“Yes. Restore Toushiro's name. I will let them think you dead and I will help you.” She said trembling.

 

“How would you help me?” He asked as his lips barely touched hers.

 

“Help you release Kaito. I will use my yoki and help you find him. They will not search for you if I can prove you are dead.” She said trembling harder.

 

“What would you like to prove my death?” He whispered.

 

“Lots of blood. I can heal you. I promise on my honor and my daughter that I speak the truth.” She said hoarsely.

 

“Shiro found a perfect onna.” He said in a breathy whisper.

 

“I am not perfect. I am the cause of my parents' hatred of the other.” She admitted.

 

“How is that?” He said trembling himself.

 

“I was born.” Saaya replied.

 

He kissed her softly and she responded a little. It was only lips but it became lingering. They kissed the other over and over but kept it with just lips. He jerked himself back and he looked back at her.

 

“I accept your terms.” He said breathless.

 

“Sojiro?” She whispered.

 

“Hai Lady Saaya?” He asked not able to look at her.

 

She ghosted her lips over his shoulder and she wished to the Kamis she could kill the Central Forty Six for both him and Toushiro.

 

“Would you believe that I only was involved with one onna? I was so young when I died.” He said bitterly.

 

“Sojiro.” She said in a whimper.

 

“Here I am coveting something that Toushiro has. He is good and hai I do hate him for being so good. I hate that he was better then me.” He admitted.

 

“You never had the chance.” She said as tears slipped from her blue eyes.

 

“Are you crying for me?” He asked softly.

 

“Yes.” She said unable to look away.

 

His reddened eyes searched her face and he pulled her to him. She was absolutely shaking as she met his lips again. He tried to still himself and he felt her small hands against his chest.

 

“Sojiro?” She asked softly.

 

“Hai?” He asked getting hoarse.

 

“Open your lips.” She said mesmerized.

 

He parted his lips just a little and she met them again. She kept the caress soft as she began the gentle touch. It became a slow escalation and she moaned against his mouth. She threaded her hands in his loose black hair and he grunted as she slipped her tongue to explore his moist mouth. She mated and ran her tongue along his hard palate and teeth. He groaned and he wrapped his arms around her tightly. She was suckling his bottom lip and he had to breathe. He was shaking incredibly hard as he pulled back. Their eyes met and she suddenly began undoing his haori and hakama. There was no thought as he ended up slipping the silk spaghetti strap dress off of her shoulders. She was in perfect proportions for her height and her skin was creamy white. Her dress slipped down her body and she wore only panties. Sojiro watched her and she had bared his own body.

 

“Saaya you are so lovely.” He whispered.

 

“You too. By the Gods you were wronged.” She said in horrendous sadness.

 

He went to say something and she stepped backwards. She ended up against a tree and he followed her. He was fighting himself but she was hypnotizing. She slowly stripped him out of his cloak and haori. She loosened his hakama and she guided his hands to her hips. Saaya breathed in deeply and he lifted her up a little and he dragged down her panties. Sojiro was moving as if in a trance and he worked himself into her. She gasped as did he. It had been forever and a day since he had been with an onna. Their noses brushed against the other and they kissed in desperation. They moved in instinct and their breaths were numerous. Saaya was on fire and she suddenly felt Menomaru close. She masked them and she gasped harshly as Sojiro looked at her face. She whimpered as she felt him hit her cervix and she arched her body.

 

“Beautiful man I am coming. Gods yes.” She whispered out in a groan.

 

Sojiro was stunned at her words and her body held his tightly. Raptures stole through him as he felt himself tighten too. He moaned softly in her ear and he spilled. He had to lean against her and the tree as he came back to himself. He had no designs on her but this onna he could love. Her body was gripping and squeezing him in her aftermath.

 

“My uncle comes. Can you ease out of me and I will mask you?” She whispered in his ear.

 

“Hai. Lady Saaya this was not my intention.” He said in a grieved way.

 

“Nor was it mine but I will treasure the feel of you. I will treasure the memory of the way you moaned against my neck and the feel of your skin as it brushed mine.” She spoke softly.

 

He blushed very softly and he eased out of her. He moved quickly and retrieved their clothes. He shunpoed nearby and she masked him with her yoki. She flew up into a low branch of a tree and Menomaru came into the clearing. He looked up and he saw his daughter.

 

“Your father and I have been worried sick.” He said sighing.

 

“I have been searching for Toushiro.” She said softly.

 

“Saaya come home and we will send scouts for him.” He said.

 

“I do not want to come home. I want to search for Toushiro myself.” She said flatly.

 

“Saaya baby girl please!” He cried.

 

“NO! I am not a baby anymore. I am an adult. I may be Princess Saaya but I am also Hitsugaya Saaya. You may have been my sire Uncle Menomaru and I love you; I do but father is my daddy. You are my second father but he is the one I answer to. You and mother sinned against him.” She said coldly.

 

“Your mother and father fought. They injured the other. They were arguing over you. She and I also fought over you. The least you could do is come home and allow your father to know you are well.” He snapped.

 

“Yes, I will. Now if you do not mind I was following a lead. I will be home this evening.” She snapped.

 

Menomaru sighed and Saaya's eyes widened when she saw his mind.

 

“You stabbed my mother? Have you and father not done enough? She is not moth! You want and expect her to be what she is not! How could you?” She said flying down.

 

“Your mother is poison to our family!” He yelled.

 

“No Uncle Menomaru that would be you!” Saaya said slapping him.

 

“Saaya come back here.” He said pointing his finger at her.

 

“You selfish bastard! Father used you. You thought he did not know? He planned for you to bed my mother! He used you to sire me because he could not. He knew what a back stabbing son of whore you were! He knew and he used it. How dare you blame her for your lack of hormonal control! She at least has a reason!” Saaya screamed.

 

“What reason Saaya? What reason does she have?” Menomaru sneered.

 

“She has succubus in her. You are just a whore.” She said fleeing from him.

 

Menomaru's chest was heaving and her words stung. He could not believe his brother would use him as such and he was emotionally wounded. He could no longer sense her and he growled out in fury.

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// ////////

Saaya fled into the forest and Sojiro grabbed her. She was bawling and she was so tired of her sordid beginning. He held her tightly and she sobbed hard.

 

“What did all that mean?” He asked.

 

“I am the product of sin! My father and his brother are identical twins. They both pursued her. My dad let it happen to allow me to be sired. Gods they are so fucked up.” She said allowing him to hold her.

 

“Let us find Toushiro. Then `kill' me. I promise to never touch you again.” He said gently.

 

“Do not promise that.” She said gripping him.

 

“Lady Saaya you belong to little Shiro.” He said closing his crimson eyes.

 

“You are in a way part of him and me too it seems. I swore to help and I shall.” She said kissing his open palm.

 

She allowed herself to be held tightly and they began walking. She looked back at where her true sire had been and she felt hatred.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Nobu had managed to repair the damage and he sat down at his desk. He dialed Naraku and his longtime friend showed up immediately.

 

“You know when she showed up pregnant with Saaya we were all shocked. Now those bastards both have worked her over and they blame her for everything.” He said in anger.

 

“She begged us to not confront them but they continuously hurt her.” Naraku stated.

 

“I think it time the Tsuchigumo Confederation gives the Ga Nation an ultimatum. Leave our first lady alone or there will be war.” Ishin said from the door.

 

“That is a huge step Ishin. That would mean mobilizing an actual force.” Naraku stated.

 

“Aya has kept an elite force going. I will not have those bastards touching her anymore. It is bad enough she is having to fight the damn Shouten and these new reptiles but I will not have her fight the ga as well. We can handle them.” Ishin stated sitting.

 

“You are quite serious?” His older brother asked.

 

“Hai. Nobu have Aya and Bihua report to me in the morning. By the way, I was sorry to hear that Bihua and Aya are divorcing.” Ishin said softly.

 

“Yasunari's death affected Aya very badly. She has been in major depression for a long while.” Nobu said in a low voice.

 

“Ayana was terribly upset by it.” Ishin replied.

 

“I only wish my sister happiness. After all she did for me after the fall it is the least I can do.” Nobu answered.

 

“Has she seen Osamu by chance?” Naraku asked.

 

“Hai.” He nodded.

 

“Perhaps peace can be achieved there.” Ishin said porting out.

 

Naraku nodded to Nobu and he slipped away to check on Asuna. She was hooked up to an IV and he was angry. He took her hand and kissed it. She turned her head and smiled softly at him.

 

“Hello.” She whispered.

 

“Little Hana needs to return Asuna. I know this was not your fault but you need to stay here. We are taking some control in these situations. It seems you desire to start over and have another large family again.” He said running his fingers along hers softly.

 

“Hai I want to try and do right this time. I want to try and be a better mother then I was. I want to try and do what I should have done. I should have taken Saaya. I should have gone back for Ang Chi.” She said as silent tears fell.

 

“You made mistakes as we all did. Kenomaru and Menomaru have made many more. Kenomaru should never have taken the Shikon nor should he have pursued you. Saaya is innocent and we all have known that.” He stated.

 

“I need sleep.” She said as she could not stop crying.

 

“Asuna let me help you.” He said softly.

 

“No Naraku. Go home.” She said rolling to her side.

 

He sighed and he could see her doing what she used to do. The Kamis damn ga had thrown her into one of her crippling depressions. He produced a miasma cloud and went into Karakura Town. He slipped into her beach house and found the medallion that made a garganta. He used the medal and he walked through into the white wastelands that was Hueco Mundo. Each Espada had a palace within Los Noches and he morphed into an Arrancar look alike. He made his way to the Sixth Espada and he knocked loudly.

 

“What?” Grimmjow called.

 

“Let me in fool! It is Naraku.” He snapped.

 

Grimmjow opened the door and he was grinning when he saw the hanyou look like a black haired nobody Arrancar. He laughed merrily as Naraku came in and took his own form. The Sixth Espada crossed his arms as he stared at his former rival and now conditional friend.

 

“What're you doing here?” He demanded.

 

“Asuna was stabbed by one of her former lovers.” Naraku stated bluntly.

 

“What the fuck? Who'd dare?” He said growling.

 

“A ga.” He growled softly.

 

“I punched the fucker recently.” Grimmjow retorted.

 

“Apparently not hard enough. The Tsuchigumo are going after the ga as a nation and I was hoping to count on your talent of destruction to wreck havoc for the ga twins.” Naraku replied.

 

“You've always been a proper pansy ass lord haven't ya?” He asked amused.

 

“More or less but there is the half of me that was ningen. You know my friend so hush about it. You were a prince.” Naraku snapped.

 

“Like hell I was. So there's more then one ga fucker?” He asked irreverently.

 

“Hai. Kenomaru and Menomaru are the ga lords. Now will you please help me?” The dark hanyou asked.

 

“Yeah as long as blood gets spilt. Did the assholes make her cry?” Grimmjow demanded.

 

“Hai. She can be the most emotional female but she is one the strongest warriors that I have seen. It makes me sick to see her as such.” The hanyou growled.

 

“You saying she's depressed?” Grimmjow demanded.

 

“Hai. When she sinks into one it is bad. She and I have broken apart during her depressions. She once tried to commit suicide when she was very young.” He said sighing in the memory.

 

“I'm gonna rip his fucking wings off and shove them down his throat!” The Arrancar snarled.

 

“Good. Now I have an incursion to plan. It would be good if you could see her. She needs those of us she loves the most there.” He said softly.

 

“I'll get there tonight. Hey thanks hanyou.” He said in an afterthought.

 

“No problem Arrancar. I am selfish and I wish to make sure the onna who has my heart, soul, and mind is happy. I want to be happy as well. She gave me another precious baby girl recently. I am so happy to be a father again after all these years.” Naraku stated in a barely audible voice.

 

“Yeah Haruya kicks ass.” Grimmjow muttered.

 

They parted ways and Naraku knew that Grimmjow would make the ga suffer heinously. He had come to like him more since he found out more about him. He liked his stubborn nature and his loyalty although it had to be earned. He produced the medal's garganta and he went back to his plane.

Ichigo had squared off with Captain Hitsugaya and he had found his house a wreck. He was worried and he went to the only other place he knew she could be. She had been fighting so much as of late that he felt disconnected with her. Ichigo missed her and he hated that he had been away too. He found her in the hospital and he came into the room. She was staring at the wall and he sat by her bed.

 

“Sensei?” He inquired softly.

 

“Hai.” She mumbled.

 

“What happened?” He asked gently.

 

“My past. It is always my past that attacks me. How are you Ichigo?” She whispered without emotion.

 

“I found Toushiro in the middle of the street half dead. He's acting all weird and Soul Society is up in arms.” He murmured.

 

“It was good of you to assist him. How is Kuchiki Rukia?” She asked.

 

“She's okay I guess. Why're you acting like this? What happened?” Ichigo demanded.

 

“I was stabbed in the liver by Menomaru. Before you ask, he is Saaya's father.” She said closing her eyes and tears leaked from her eyes.

 

“Why'd he stab you?” He asked shocked.

 

“He is angry with me and he thinks I betrayed him. Kenomaru is the one I betrayed but he more then made up for it. I am so tired Ichigo. Misaki and Hinata are here in Tokyo. Their nanny brought them to me this afternoon.” She said softly.

 

“Yeah I called and checked on them. Sensei, you're scaring the shit outta me.” He said trying to keep her gaze.

 

“I am sleepy Ichigo.” She sighed deeply.

 

“Why're you here?” Muguruma Kensei said from the door.

 

“Excuse me? I'm here because I love her. What the hell's your excuse?” Ichigo growled out.

 

“Stop it!” Asuna whispered fiercely.

 

“While you're off playing idiot in Hueco Mundo the rest of us are actually working our asses off to defeat Aizen and his Arrancar. All you do is manage to stir up shit!” Kensei said clenching his fists.

 

“You aren't welcome here!” Ichigo said coldly.

 

“I asked him to come Ichigo. Please stop this, please!” She cried softly.

 

“What can you talk to him about that you can't talk to me about? What the hell's happened to us Asuna? What has changed except we have two kids?” He demanded.

 

“I am no good for you or anyone. I am deeding the house to you. It is your home now. I am so tired. Please will you go to Hinata and Misaki? They are crying for their chichi.” She said as grief filled her soul.

 

“You're fucking leaving again? You're going to fucking walk away after all the crap we've through?” Ichigo demanded.

 

“I am not taking the pups from you. I am weary and I wish for no one right now. I want you to use my resources as you see fit. The pups need you and you are an excellent chichi. I want you to finish university and I wish to the Kamis you had never met me.” She said rolling away.

 

“You Kamis damn coward! I thought we worked through this! You selfish bitch!” He yelled.

 

Kensei lost his temper completely and smashed his fist into Ichigo's face. Ichigo looked insanely hurt but he rubbed his jaw.

 

“You fucking her?” He demanded of Kensei.

 

“No. I respect her kid. You could learn the term. Get out of here.” The former captain barked.

 

Ichigo furiously left and Asuna just laid there. Kensei came over to her and lay beside her. He was careful not to touch her lest he cause her pain.

 

“I did that for you.” She said unemotionally.

 

“Why? I didn't think you would.” He said softly.

 

“Because you do not demand anything of me. You just are and I respect you too.” She said getting sleepy.

 

“Onna can you look at me?” He asked in a gruff tone.

 

She rolled over and he held in his surprise. Her eyes were swollen from silent tears and they were red. He watched her carefully and she wiped her face in irritation.

 

“I care about you. I don't say that easily.” He murmured.

 

“I gathered you did. You show concern and I am grateful. Thank you for checking on me. Have a good evening Kensei.” She replied softly.

 

He understood she needed space and he slipped from the bed. He was not angry about it and he knew a kindred spirit. He slipped away and he had heard what had gotten to her. He decided he needed to know what the folklore said about the famed warrior princess from the Sengoku Jidai.

Grimmjow stood in the window and he had heard her dismiss the shinigami brat. He was almost giddy at the thought and he slipped into the room. Her brow was furrowed and he could smell salt. He had found a ga in Northern China and he had damn near killed him. He told him to go see his lords and tell him that Grimmjow wanted to play. He slipped off his jacket and he slipped off his hakama; he slid in next to her and she came awake.

 

“What the fuck is going on with you?” He demanded.

 

“Grimmjow? Why are you here?” She asked softly.

 

“You ain't gonna fall apart on me. You aren't gonna let a pale face fucker get to you. I need you and so does Haruya.” He snarled in her ear.

 

“Can I not just work through my feelings? Why do I have to justify my pain?” She asked softly.

 

“You don't have to. I just refuse to loose my esposa cause some winged asshole had a temper tantrum.” He said laughing.

 

“Who sent you?” She demanded.

 

“Naraku asked me to tear up some ga ass. He didn't have to ask me to come to ya.” The Arrancar said barely touching her.

 

He brutally kissed her but with restraint. He kept himself from attacking her and he showed her how much she meant to him. He pulled back and stared at her with his vivid blue eyes. He ran his fingers along her magenta markings.

 

“You gotta go back and give me a girl. You gotta go back so you can save her.” He mumbled.

 

“Hai I do. You have a way with me.” She smiled at him.

 

“When you're well and you better get well soon; I'm gonna take you and we're gonna go somewhere nice and quiet so you can yell your head off.” He stated grinning.

 

“You are so sure of yourself?” She asked smirking.

 

“Hai I'm positive. I'm charming and that good.” He snickered.

 

“Hai you are.” She smiled.

 

“I love you bitch. I love you so Kamis damn much. I can say it now and not freak my shit.” He mumbled.

 

“I love you too Haru.” She said getting sleepy again.

 

He stiffened when she said that name and he did not correct her. It occurred to him that it actually sounded natural. He was affected but did not let it show. He settled in and fell asleep too.

Aya stood across the room from Bihua and they did not look at each other. Bihua intended to honor his word to Lady Asuna and he listened to what Lord Ishin had to say. He was becoming more incensed the more he heard. As soon as the meeting was over he faded away and appeared in her hospital room. She was sleeping from heavy sedation and he neared her.

 

“My lady?” He murmured.

 

“Hai Bihua.” She said without opening her eyes.

 

“Did a moth really stab you?” He demanded.

 

“Hai a ga stabbed me in the liver.” Asuna nodded.

 

Bihua was beyond furious and he had visions of the moth snared within a web and himself injecting copious amounts of venom.

 

“You loved the moths?” He asked.

 

“I did at one time. I now only feel intense hatred.” She replied.

 

He knelt next to her bed and took her hands. He was feeling too much and he stared at her.

 

“Tell me that the other day meant something.” Bihua whispered.

 

“The other day was beautiful. You have changed so much.” She said opening her eyes.

 

“Why was I not worth it before?” He asked in a low voice.

 

“I was not right after Nagaharu died. I had so much hatred in me and you were relief from my pain. You were my antidote from grief. Near the end right before I died you wanted me to mate you and I was scared.” She admitted.

 

“You were afraid I would die as well.” He stated in sudden understanding.

 

“I loved Gaku and Jouichi but you were my sanctuary.” She stated with a heaving chest.

 

“You loved me.” He said in disbelief.

 

“Hai.” She whispered.

 

He stood and he neared the hospital bed. His anger over Aya was still there but he suppressed it as he stood there beside her.

 

“I must go and deal with some military issues. Lord Ishin has commanded an offensive.” He stated softly.

 

“He told me.” She replied.

 

He forced himself to breathe deeply and he stood over the bed.

 

“Tell me what you want done about the moths and it will be done. If you want them spared then say it because if not the Tsuchigumo will reign down wrath for them daring to touch our consort.” He said fiercely.

 

“I do not want them dead. Teach them a lesson for all I care. Saaya would never forgive me if her precious father and sire were killed but do show them that they do not come into our homelands and dictate anything to us.” She stated and met his copper gaze.

 

He bowed and she grabbed his hand. She pulled him to her and he looked down at her.

 

“Please make sure no harm comes to Saaya.” She begged.

 

“Your daughter will see no harm.” Bihua said bowing his head.

 

She sat up and stared into his eyes. He was keeping himself in check but the look on her face was tearing him apart.

 

“What is it you are thinking?” He demanded softly.

 

“Your brazen nature.” She said gently.

 

“Does this bother you? Does it bother you that I am bold and brazen? It is no different from you.” He said confused.

 

“What did you wish to do to me in Siam when I met you for the first time in this body?” She asked.

 

“Gods, you showed up just like you did in the past. You were so confident and you were speaking about reuniting us just like you spoke the first time. I was thrown for a loop when you stood your ground both times. It made me crazed and to see you again. I told you I knew it was you but you did not know. I wanted to make you remember who you had been but you are just as amazing in this skin as you were as Ayana.” He sighed.

 

“You wanted to jog my memory.” She nodded.

 

“I guess I did. I truly did not mean you harm. I wanted to seduce you; I wanted to make love to you.” He said honestly.

 

“You seem deeper then you were.” She stated lifting her fingers to trace his jaw.

 

“I have had many, many years to explore how I felt about you.” Bihua said looking away.

 

She forced herself to stand and she stood in front of him.

 

“I need you Bihua.” She said softly.

 

“I am loyal to you. I will never sway from that.” He said bluntly.

 

“Settle things with the ga for now. When I am completely well I wish to speak again.” She said palming his cheeks.

 

“Yes.” He said breathless.

 

She lightly pressed her lips to his and kept it brief. His eyes shut for a moment and his hands reached up to hold her face.

 

“I love you. I cannot stop.” He said almost hoarse.

 

“I never did but I was good at hiding things.” She replied.

 

She turned her head and kissed his open palm. He moaned a little and pulled himself back a little.

 

“I will see you soon my lady. Get well.” He said bowing formally.

 

She nodded and he faded out. She went back to her bed and lay down. Fury was eating her insides and she decided to let the kumo handle the ga. She was tired of suffering for their actions. She had to make herself get well and find out why Raganos was not making any moves. She had to figure out what the wyvern were planning. She had to return Daichi to the past and she intended to suffer no more.
