Complications

 

She was still asleep and Jin stared at the ceiling of his room. Somehow the passionate haze had continued on and he was actually sore. He had not made love so much in a long while and Sheng was laid across her snoring heavily. She was sleeping heavily too and at one point she had been in his lap and they had clung to the other moving slowly. It had been amazing and he cursed his stupidity. He could not move on if he was with her and making passionate love to her. He managed to dress quietly and quit his bedroom. He walked towards his sun room and coffee. He ran a hand through his short brown hair and sighed again. Jin stopped short when he heard banging and something breaking back in his room. He ran back and Asuna was retching into the toilet rather violently. Sheng was bleary eyed and rubbed his eyes to try and focus.

 

“Oh Kamis. Not again.” She said beginning to vomit more.

 

“Asuna?” Jin asked nearing her.

 

She looked up at him and she looked weak. He ran some water in his giant bath tub and brought a cold rag to her head. She retched violently some more and he noticed she was puking blood.

 

“Asuna! Did you drink from a tainted source?” He asked concerned.

 

“No. Oh Kamis! Sheng! Jin!” She said getting sick.

 

Sheng looked helpless and Jin stared at his brother. They both looked confused and she finally lay on the bathroom floor and rested her aching head.

 

“I was this sick with Kazuo and Hiroto.” She mumbled.

 

“What? Wait a minute! Are you saying that and you are and we but?” Sheng said confused.

 

“Get Nobu and shut up. I have a head ache.” She said closing her eyes.

 

“I will be right back.” Sheng said grabbing some clothes and he ported out.

 

Jin rubbed her back and he had no real clue what the hell was going on and he sighed. Sheng appeared with Shinobu and he growled at her state.

 

“Haha!” He snapped.

 

“What?” She asked weakly.

 

“Mother! Damnit!” Shinobu said gently rolling her to her back.

 

He pressed his ear to her lower abdomen and he felt a distinct presence. He sighed heavily and he would have to get blood panels and CBCs and the whole bit.

 

“You just had a pup!” He scolded her.

 

“Sorry.” She muttered.

 

“Haha you have got to stop. You have to stop. You will die. You will die in childbirth.” Shinobu hissed.

 

“Wait a minute! Asuna you are pupped?” Jin asked stuttering.

 

“What did you think I was saying?” She asked him.

 

“Koi you okay?” Sheng asked bringing her water.

 

“Hai. Just sick.” Asuna murmured closing her eyes.

 

“Kumo can you, I mean do you know?” Jin asked under his breath.

 

“I will take her back to the hospital and run a full panel and workup. You two are idiots.” He said in anger.

 

Shinobu ported with his mother and the two stared at each other in shock.

 

“I had no clue.” Jin stated.

 

“Her body does that. There was a helluva lot yoki in this room.” Sheng said softly.

 

Jin had to sit down and he was just in utter shock.

 

“Jin, we have done this before. Calm down.” Sheng snorted.

 

“But not like this. It was deeper. It was different.” His elder brother said shaking.

 

“Man, I am in love with her. You have it bad.” He laughed as he clapped him on the back.

 

“Sheng. I have wanted a pup so badly and for so long but I have given up.” Jin said staring out.

 

“Man oh man you do have it bad. Brother, you have had her blood have you not?” Sheng asked.

 

“Hai of course.” He said turning red.

 

“It is all about our blood and her blood Jin. We may be more inu but we have these drives and needs in us too. The empusae uppyr survive through tremendous energy gained through blood and physical exertion of yoki; typically through rutting.” Sheng explained.

 

“I know all this Sheng.” Jin rolled his eyes.

 

“Hai well her blood has binding properties. We were doomed the second we took in any great amount.” He shrugged.

 

“So my feelings are not really my own?” He asked.

 

“I did not say that. It just means the feelings we do feel are pretty damn intense. I am going to check on her after a shower. You going to be okay?” His baby brother asked.

 

“Hai. I will be okay.” He nodded.

 

He waited for Sheng to leave and he ported to Japan. He cautiously followed her scent and he did not want to get his hopes up. He adored his nephews and he was proud of them but he had always pined for the lost pup that had been lost centuries ago. He was standing in the door and she was sleeping.

 

“Asuna?” He whispered.

 

“Hai?” She murmured sleepily.

 

“You okay?” Jin asked in a gentle tone.

 

“You know you are not as much of an ass like you used to be.” She smiled a little.

 

“I have been humbled through the years.” He stated watching her.

 

“I hurt you terribly.” Asuna said looking away.

 

“I hurt you as much. I was prideful. I wanted you on my terms and not who you were.” He admitted.

 

“We should not have mated.” She said staring at the Tokyo morning.

 

“Perhaps not. Asuna are you well? May I quit worrying?” Jin asked in a very raw voice.

 

“Otome.” She stated softly.

 

“You are having a female?” He stated.

 

“Hai.” She nodded.

 

He was waiting and she said nothing else. He nodded and bowed and crushing pain tore at his heart. He turned on his heel to leave and she called out.

 

“Jin please stay.” Asuna asked.

 

“Why?” He asked in the hoarest tone she had heard him make.

 

“Shinobu has said she is yours.” She said in a whisper.

 

He stiffened and there was such emotion in him that he was unsure if he could stand to see her face. He made himself turn around and he stared at her eyes and she took his hand. She pressed his hand to her belly and he made a wounded noise.

 

“How can you know?” He asked in a raw tone.

 

“DNA Jin. Welcome to the modern era.” Asuna laughed.

 

“I do not believe this to be true.” Jin stated as he pulled away.

 

“Excuse me?” Asuna asked blinking in surprise.

 

“Anyone but me Asuna. You give anyone of your lovers anything but me.” He said shaking.

 

“Are you drunk again?” She demanded.

 

“No.” He growled.

 

“Why would I lie about this?” She asked in a temper.

 

“Because my pup was killed more then four centuries ago.” Jin said with tears in his eyes.

 

“What do you think happened between us?” Asuna asked growling.

 

“I do not know. I am sorry.” He said bowing quickly and he ported out.

 

She was astonished at his behavior and she slowly got up. Nausea overwhelmed her but she ported to Panyu. She walked through his palace and she found him pacing his room. He stared back at her and their eyes met.

 

“Do you remember when Mizuki was born? I claimed her. You ripped her from me. You ripped Hiroto and Kazuo from me too.” He said in a raw tone.

 

“It was a rough time in my life Jin. I had lost Sheng and I was on the verge of loosing Naraku. I was being stupid.” She said perplexed.

 

“Yet we could not try. You pulled away and went to him. I fell so much in love with you that for so many years it tore me apart. I never regretted Teegan's death except that she would have given me a pup happily. She would have given me an heir and she would not have ripped my family to pieces.” He said emotionally.

 

“We have been through this so many times Jin. I felt alone and fed to the wolves so to speak. I had every bit of dignity taken from me at the hands of a Shouten who possessed Eyal. I still remember having him shove that blade into my gut as he took our pup's life.” Asuna murmured.

 

“Stop! That pup was my last chance of happiness with you. This is just a fluke.” He said bitterly.

 

Asuna stormed up to him and got into his face. He stared at her and he was overcome in the many years of anger.

 

“A fluke? You call this a fluke? You are a self pitying, whining bastard! We both made horrid mistakes because of pride and lies! So if you wish to dismiss what we have done then go ahead Jin. You go crawl into yourself. I am no longer that young onna who will let the great Chaolan Jin push me around!” Asuna hissed.

 

“You never let me push you around so to speak, you never listened.” He retorted.

 

“Fine. I did not need you then and I do not need you now.” She said furiously.

 

Fury passed over his features but he could detect a very faint scent now. He gently pushed her jaw to the side and scented along her juncture. Jin made a soft growling noise and he could smell inu and it was his. He buried his nose and scented her deeper as she stood there stiffly. He picked her up suddenly and she was against the wall and he was probing her mouth with his tongue. She whimpered underneath the onslaught and he continued to kiss her deeply. He was in confusion but he knew that at this moment this was all he wanted.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Lansoh had found nothing. She was frustrated at her lack of success and she was walking through the Sendai castle to the Lord's meeting. She had not seen Naraku since their sordid encounter and she felt like an utter whore for how she had acted. She slipped into the large meeting hall and sat down at the conference table next to Bihua.

 

“You look like hell.” He muttered.

 

“Thank you Bihua. Charming as always.” She retorted.

 

“Alright we are all here.” Ishin said coming in.

 

Naraku was absent and Lansoh was miffed. Chikara looked exhausted and Ishin looked over at him.

 

“You alright?” He asked.

 

“Hai. Ayana is uncomfortable.” The tarantula yawned.

 

Ishin chortled and Lansoh was fuming. She did not expect the hanyou to be a coward. She sat through the meeting and stood up when it was done. She figured he would be in Korea and she did not expect him to be at Sendai itself. She almost ran into him and she had a cold look on her face.

 

“Lady Lansoh.” He muttered.

 

“Lord Naraku.” She replied.

 

“I assume you have yet to find anything? How disappointing.” He snapped.

 

Her face clouded in fury and she pulled a dagger from her thigh. She pressed it to his throat and he was surprised.

 

“Do not humiliate me anymore my lord. I do not do well with insults to my honor.” She said in a frigid tone.

 

“Do not be foolish widow.” He said in a dark tone.

 

He grabbed her hand and she actually yelped in pain as she dropped the dagger. They were struggling a little bit and Naraku slammed her against the wall. He was breathing hard and he crashed his mouth to hers. It was violent as they both tried to control it. He pulled them into his miasma and they fell back onto his bed in his home in Korea. He ripped open her black button down and tore at her bra. She too was ripping at his modern clothes as they hungrily and animalisticly joined. His mind shut down and this was not him. It was not him to do this but he was not acting like himself at all. Naraku dominated her again and again she was in another reality it seemed. Her eyes were burning red and her claws tore his skin and she was gasping out. Numbly in the back of her mind she could feel all of this powerful being and she knew this was not him either. What part of him that was kumo was driving him and her own inner beast was gleeful. Lansoh spasmed and she screamed as she arched against him. He gripped her back as he shouted out and fell against her. She was shaking in the aftermath and her voice was raw.

 

“Lansoh, I have no idea what has come over me.” He said in a harsh whisper.

 

“Forget it.” She barely managed to whisper.

 

He pulled back and fell to his back and she scrambled up. Her clothes were ruined and Naraku saw her back. She had a smattering of red speckling that went down her back to her thighs almost like a tattoo.

 

“Markings from my true form.” She muttered.

 

“Alluring.” He said as he perused her.

 

“You are not mine to covet. I request time away for awhile.” She said shaking.

 

“Granted.” He said in a deep tone.

 

She could not believe she was asking permission of a male for anything but this was not just any male. He may not be the utterly evil son of whore that he was but he was still dark in nature and cunning. He was beautiful and full of something so foreign to her.

 

“I will go to Europe to search for the reptiles. My search here has led to nothing.” She stated unable to look at him.

 

He rose and he pressed a shirt into her hands.

 

“When I was restored as a hanyou I thought myself above such baseness.” Naraku stated.

 

“You may be an amalgamation but you still house the soul of a kumo lord. You are still male and perhaps there is a small part of you that finds some part of me intriguing! I am sorry I am not your beloved inu.” She snarled.

 

“Perhaps that is my problem. You remind me too much of her.” He snapped.

 

She whirled around as if slapped and stared at him in fury.

 

“Is this what you did to her? Did you use her to try and fill your soul because you could not have that miko slut? I remind you of Ayana? I promise you that I am nothing like Ayana.” She said spitting at him.

 

“You may leave Lady Lansoh.” He said leaving the room.

 

Tears actually pricked her eyes and she felt used and cheap. She ported to her home and she actually let loose a sob. She walked to her bathroom and turned on the shower to try and wash away her shame.

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

She had fallen asleep in a web and she was feeling ill. She managed to change into her humanoid form just in time as she vomited. Her only child was long since an adult and she dialed the phone.

 

“Yasua? Hai it is Haha. Please child I need you.” She said hoarsely into the phone.

 

Her lovely daughter appeared shortly and she knelt next to her great mother. She felt her head and she was hit with strong pheromones immediately.

 

“Mother, you are involved?” Yasua asked calmly.

 

“Not involved no. I subjugated an arrogant male.” Lansoh groaned.

 

“Your beasts were in place. Shall I take you to healer Nobu?” She asked calmly.

 

“No. I shall be okay.” She said leaning back.

 

“Did the lords not command you a mission?” Yasua asked.

 

“They did. I will get this…oh Kamis.” She said vomiting harshly.

 

Yasua ignored Lansoh and ported them both to Yamasaki General. Lansoh was never sick and she was never careless. Nobu came to the Widow Lord and she was brought to a private room. He could scent her immediately and he had never known her pregnant before. She was vomiting terribly and it was not stopping.

 

“Lady Lansoh, I am going to give you an IV. This is not normal. Can I ask who sired this child? Is it a cross species?” Nobu asked gently.

 

“I require absolute secrecy healer. This was not done in a passionate moment I assure you.” She said getting sick again.

 

“Go ahead.” He nodded.

 

“Lord Naraku and I had a terrible argument. He aroused my beast and I accosted him. He is not at fault I assure you that but our beasts were in place.” She said closing her eyes.

 

“Oh Kamis.” Nobu said in shock.

 

“He is not to know!” She said lifting her head.

 

“Pardon? You deny a father?” He asked more shocked.

 

“Widow males do as they are told funnel. Females are in charge of our young and no funnel or hanyou funnel is going to change that!” She snapped.

 

“If Asuna finds out then she will go ballistic.” Nobu said shaking his head.

 

“I am saving the drama and swearing you to secrecy. Do not be stupid healer. Your mate is no friend of mine and I do not want Naraku I promise you. This was done only in instinct and nothing more. Have you never done anything foolish?” Lansoh demanded.

 

“Hai I have. Naraku has never sired a babe with another onna. He will go insane if he finds out.” Nobu said softly.

 

“Again do not be stupid. It was an instinctual fuck. He thought of her the whole time. How insulting is that? My behavior reminded his beast of her and he fucked me. I have never been so humiliated ever.” She said actually getting emotional.

 

Nobu set up the IV and he was in shock. He knew his mate and she did not expect fidelity but she did expect to be the only one to provide them children. It was her twisted sense of morality and Naraku doing this would cause a huge issue. He knew to keep his mouth shut but he ported to Korea.

 

“Naraku?” He called out.

 

“In my office. Your child is tearing up my things again.” He growled out.

 

“Naota, you are supposed to listen to Chichi Naraku while Chichi at hospital.” Nobu scolded.

 

“I know.” He grinned.

 

“Heart breaker.” Naraku smirked.

 

“Hai. Can you call on the nanny my friend? We have a problem.” Nobu stated cautiously.

 

“Problem?” He asked raising a black brow.

 

“Hai big problem.” The healer said.

 

Naraku picked up the phone and called on the nanny and she came in and ushered the triplets out. Naraku settled back in his leather chair and Nobu looked pensive.

 

“Lady Lansoh is in the hospital right now.” Nobu said softly.

 

“Who did she piss off now?” Naraku snorted.

 

“She cannot keep anything down. She is pregnant my friend.” He said gritting his teeth.

 

“Pregnant? I see.” He said almost coldly.

 

“She is about as thrilled as you are.” Nobu said gently.

 

“Asuna must not know.” He said calmly.

 

“She said you thought of our inu the whole time.” He stated.

 

“I did.” He growled.

 

“Naraku, Widows do not give up their children. Widows are not compliant little beasts.” The funnel healer replied.

 

“I am unsure what I shall do as of yet but you will keep this between us? Do not even tell Ishin? He is sappy.” Naraku said standing.

 

“Hai. I came to you because you and Ishin are my best friends. I have broken laws and ethics here but our children are siblings. I owe you more.” Nobu replied.

 

“I will not loose out with Asuna because I had a sordid encounter with a damn bitch of an onna.” He snapped.

 

“Lansoh has always been honorable Naraku. I do not know her well but she has always been honorable.” He shrugged.

 

“She hates Asuna. She has hated her since she was Ayana.” He said growling.

 

“Bad blood but she has not rebelled.” Nobu pointed out.

 

“Maybe not.” Naraku snarled.

 

“I cannot believe you would just use an onna my friend.” He stated.

 

“There is part of me that wants her. I cannot explain it. I want her and it is driving me insane! I feel it deep within me. I want to break her and make her scream her conceited head off. I want to throw myself at Asuna and say let me break this onna. How disgusting is that?” He said in anger.

 

“It sounds funnel.” Nobu stated.

 

“How so?” Naraku demanded.

 

“We are black funnel. Originally we are not from here and the males are highly aggressive. They are highly toxic. The females are just as powerful but the males have a higher degree then most species except the tarantula.” He shrugged.

 

“I was Hisashi. I was in love with Sorami. I was not in need of subjugating a damn widow.” He hissed.

 

“During Ayana's reign it became normal for the royals to take concubines and lovers. Both Gaku and Jouichi had one. Ayana approved of the female.” Nobu stated.

 

Naraku blinked and it dawned on him what his best friend was saying.

 

“I am acting like Hisashi again.” He snorted.

 

“Well my friend you do have two souls. No idea how you think up there but there it is. I will cover up for you but I think covering up is stupid. I think you need to bring Asuna in and talk calmly with her. I also now you and you do not wish to be away from your child. This can get nasty or it can be simple.” He said standing.

 

“What do I say to Asuna? Especially after that mess with Katsu? Oh by the way? She will go ballistic!” He snarled.

 

“She is a lot more worldly then she used to be ever since she accepted the fact that she is an empusae.” Nobu said.

 

“Ah yes but Asuna still has expectations that are high handed and arrogant. She does what she wants and expects us to obey. She is still Ayana in her mindset. I am more willful my friend and a hell of a lot more volatile. I will not ruin my long term relationship because of a filthy encounter.” He snapped.

 

“Filthy?” The healer choked.

 

“Fine not filthy but sordid! My feelings for our over the top, gorgeous, arrogant, powerful, wonderful, and brat of a mate make me weak okay? I am Naraku! I am not some simpleton and my little inu turns me into one.” He hissed.

 

“Well then. I am glad I do not have your issues.” Nobu said shaking his head.

 

“No you just have a lifetime with her too.” Naraku snorted.

 

He shook his head and Nobu was dumbfounded at the powerful hanyou. He sighed and ported via his shoki back to the hospital and Lansoh was staring at the ceiling.

 

“How are you feeling?” He asked gently.

 

“You told him.” She growled.

 

“What makes you say that?” Nobu asked calmly.

 

“Because you are in a situation similar to what Ayana was in. You probably feel you owe him fealty even above your duties as a doctor!” She said with narrowed eyes.

 

“I think you do not feel well and you are newly with child Lady Lansoh.” He stated with a general air of calm.

 

“You think I will let him have this child?” She hissed.

 

“I think you do not want to make an enemy of Naraku and the child in question is male.” Nobu murmured.

 

“Great! A worthless male.” Lansoh growled.

 

“Lady Lansoh. You are reeling so I am going to let your remarks go but I doubt you would be so hateful of a male child even though you seem to hold others of such low esteem.” Nobu said tapping a pen against her chart.

 

Lansoh felt humiliated and furious. She knew the funnel and he was a smitten idiot for the inu female as well. She crossed her arms and Nobu stiffened and so did she. There was no mistaking the aura of the inu-uppyr in question when she was not masking it. Asuna haunted the doorway and she stared at Lansoh with contempt. Nobu shuddered at the fireworks that were fixing to erupt and his mate treaded very carefully into the room.

 

“Inu have excellent hearing Lansoh.” She whispered in a wrathful tone.

 

“It meant nothing. It was an instinctual thing.” She growled.

 

“Of course. You are incapable of feeling passion and Naraku is put off by utter bitches.” Asuna said as her eyes bled red.

 

“Then why is he mated to you?” Lansoh retorted.

 

Asuna lost it and she struck the widow's cheek. Lansoh made a hissing noise and Nobu pulled Asuna off of the widow lord.

 

“You will not cower away and be a whore Lansoh! You allowed yourself to engage my mate even though it was instinctual as you say. These males are off limits. No one touches them but me.” Asuna snarled.

 

“Excuse me?” The widow asked in astonishment.

 

“You heard me. Nobu, Naraku, and Ishin are mine. I have killed other females for looking at them. They are mine and I allow no one to touch them.” She said in a beastly tone.

 

Nobu was a little shocked at her ascertains but he knew her possessive nature when it came to Ishin and Naraku but he had not known it extended to him.

 

“A little selfish you do not think?” Lansoh shrieked.

 

“Do not care. They are mine and they will always be mine.” She said baring her fangs.

 

“Asuna, please back down.” Nobu said calmly.

 

“Nobu, I am really angry at the moment.” She said hissing.

 

“I know but Shinobu furiously told me what is going on and he is on a tirade by the way. I am mad too but I am calm.” He said in a gentle tone.

 

Her healer mate knew how to calm her down and her eyes bled back to their natural color. She stared at Lansoh and she spit at her.

 

“Do not think to go anywhere Lansoh. You and I are going to work this out. You disgraced me and my house. You owe me something and you will not take a child from its father.” She said quitting the widow.

 

Nobu guided her to his office and she was barely containing her yoki. Asuna was shaking in rage and she screamed in Naraku's head. He was there almost instantly and he looked annoyed. She narrowed her eyes at him and he was on the defensive.

 

“You stupid bastard!” She said shoving him against a wall.

 

“Pardon me?” He snapped back.

 

“Lansoh? You had to tame Lansoh? She was my worst rival as Ayana and she has been a pain in my ass since then. You had to try and prove your prowess to Lansoh?” She snarled.

 

“She was opinionated and took matters into her own hands so I took back.” He hissed.

 

“She is not Sanra. She is a kumo onna.” Asuna said getting in his face.

 

“I am not to be subjugated by anyone! Especially not a kumo!” He snarled.

 

Asuna calmed instantly and she knew what had happened. She breathed in deeply and she paced.

 

“You have to take her into our household.” She said bluntly.

 

“Pardon me?” Naraku asked in anger.

 

“She has your son in her belly. I will not be separated from your child. Your children are my children as is right. This was nothing more then instinct but I will not have that child suffer.” Asuna said with finality.

 

“You cannot be serious.” He said growling.

 

“As a heart attack. If you wished another child again my darling; you should have said so. I would have gladly have provided you one.” She said kissing him softly.

 

She kissed him in a way that made his knees nearly buckle and she slowly pulled back and let him stand there. His mind was mush and he realized she had just worked him.

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

Asuna stood in the door and she watched the widow sleep. Memories of their bitter battles echoed in her head and Lansoh rolled her head over to the side to stare at her nemesis.

 

“You will not keep yourself or my child from Naraku.” Asuna said in a wrathful tone.

 

“Your child?” Lansoh said in disbelief.

 

“Naraku is mine. He has always been mine and he will always be mine. Whatever is his is mine. You tread on the wrong ground this time Lansoh.” She said in a cold voice.

 

Lansoh tried to sit up fully and she was suddenly pinned down by the very angry onna that had been the former jorogumo queen and current consort of the Federation.

 

“You tell yourself that you could have bested me but it was a lie. I let you live because you were strong and served me better alive. You stepped into my territory widow and I do not take kindly to it. Funnel may be more equal since my death but we jorogumo still rule the kumo afterlife. You are my subject and you are subject to my will. This child is mine because I say it is mine. You carry the seed of what is mine and you had better accept it or you will be put to death and I promise you that the Federation will accept my will.” She said in a frightening tone.

 

Lansoh had never been so afraid in her life and her black eyes were wide. She suddenly believed every word the onna had to say and she blinked back her terror.

 

“You will remove yourself to Sendai and you will become a member of the Matsuda household. You are a concubine of Naraku and any child of yours is subject to my raising. You wish to stay in a capacity of power then I suggest you cooperate if not; I will kill you myself upon the birth of this boy.” She said shoving her back.

 

“How can you be this way?” She said in raw whisper.

 

“How could you allow yourself to touch him? What did I do to Akane? I ripped her apart. I watched Teiran Huber bleed to death as she birthed Ishin's son. These three are not up for discussion. These three are my core and my center. Naraku, Nobu, and Ishin are mine.” Asuna said with such horrendous malice.

 

“This is my child and I will love him regardless.” She said in a raw tone.

 

“Then reconcile yourself to my household Lansoh for this boy has siblings that he will know. If you cannot then so be it. This is the price you pay for lying with my mate.” She said coldly.

 

“Hai.” She said in a quivering tone.

 

Asuna nodded curtly and she stalked out. Naraku was near and he was actually outraged. She glared at him and she understood his reasons but she would not give in so easily. He followed her and she turned on him and slammed him against a hospital door.

 

“We go back and forth with who will dominate the other my love. I understand why you did what you did. I hold no ill will I promise but I am a jealous bitch only with you three. I always have been and I always will be. She dislikes me, so what. You are angry? So what. I am what I am. You are who you are. We have made our life.” She snapped.

 

“You are a piece of work.” He said in a hiss.

 

“I keep it to where your child is with you. She is a vindictive onna. She would keep the boy from you to punish you. I know who you love and I know your mind. I know what that encounter with Sanra did to you. No one can know you better and I will not let Lansoh hurt you like that!” She said holding his face.

 

He crushed his lips to hers and it was repressed emotion. Nobu stepped out and sighed. As the two made out in his hospital hall.

 

“Okay you two.” He said rolling his eyes.

 

“Hai.” He said hoarsely.

 

“Hai.” She whispered too.

 

Naraku pulled her into his miasma and they ended up in Korea. She was staring at his face as he undressed her and the feelings they always felt were displayed.

 

“You want something of me.” He said as he began to devour her throat.

 

“Hai. I want you to treat her correctly. I would prefer if you turn her into a brood mare.” She said gasping as his lips found her ear lobe.

 

“I would have to actually like her.” He hissed.

 

“Part of you does. Lansoh needs domesticating. Keep her busy with little ones.” She groaned as he threw her down on his bed.

 

“So says my inu?” Naraku demanded.

 

“Hai.” She said with red eyes.

 

He let his tentacles wrap around her legs and open her wide and she grunted in surprise. He was in a mood and he was going to prove his ardor for her. She gasped out as he entered her swiftly and with passion. He forced his yoki down on her and she was in a delirium.

 

“Naraku!” She yelped.

 

“You like to tell me what to do koi. You like to imagine you control me. It is me that knows you so well. Take me in now Asuna!” He demanded.

 

He was only trying to have a passionate encounter but the yoki was too much. She was sweating and begging as she absorbed it and melded it. He was loosing his mind to the pleasure and consumption they created and he could feel her taking from him. He hated it and loved it at the same time. He would never tell her that because it would admit he NEEDED someone else but he forced her to meld fully and they shattered fully. Naraku never felt like this with anyone else and he never would.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna dragged herself from Naraku's bed and Ishin was there too. She was groggy and sick again. Jin was wavering between petulance which he was famous for as well as Sheng and disbelief. She had finally had enough and told him to grow up and find her when he could handle the situation. She was shaky as she found the bathroom and she vomited till she felt better. Asuna could admit to herself that having a pup was no issue and she had sworn him one long ago. She had been so angry and so betrayed by him that she had shut him out. She pretty much blamed her young years on the Shouten and she splashed water on her face to make herself better. She saw a reflection in the mirror and she was shocked. Maec smirked and she whirled around. He was on her in a second with a hand over her mouth and his face held lust.

 

“This modern era is amazing. The clothes or lack thereof is so enticing.” He whispered in her ear.

 

She snarled in his mind and he chuckled softly.

 

“What have you been doing my sweet enemy?” He said opening her thin silk robe.

 

She shrieked against his hand and he was purring practically. She was fighting him and he was holding onto her tightly.

 

“Such a lovely thing you are. What the hell is that?” He snarled suddenly.

 

Asuna's eyes widened in surprise when she felt a presence she had not felt in a little while. She heard things breaking and cackling and she knew exactly which reiastu she was feeling.

 

“I dunno who the fuck ya are but ya better unhand my bitch right now.” Grimmjow said from the doorway.

 

“Are you serious?” Maec began laughing.

 

“Oh yeah fucker. I'm fixing to mess you up.” The blue haired Arrancar said laughing manically.

 

“Pardon me Isha whilst I deal with the vermin.” He said shoving her away.

 

“Grimmjow?” Asuna hissed.

 

“Yeah your kumo is fucked up and the hanyou is gone.” He said to Asuna.

 

“What?” She said looking at Maec in fury.

 

“Oh Sanra was here too.” He smiled with madness.

 

Asuna was fixing to go at Maec but her stomach rolled and she proceeded to get sick.

 

“Ah fuck esposa! What the hell?” Grimmjow growled as he suddenly let loose a cero on Maec.

 

She was retching and Maec was hit point blank with the short, red blast of power. He was thrown back and he realized this upstart was a Vasto Lordes in the making. His eyes gleamed and he morphed his limb and Grimmjow lifted his hand and blocked the serrated limb that barely scratched his heirro.

 

“I was told you were like some bad ass. You're a fucking pansy! At least the shinigami brat can fight back.” Grimmjow said with a leering smile.

 

Maec took his fist back and punched straight through Grimmjow with his ash shoki. Blood erupted and Asuna choked.

 

“That's more like it asshole. Come on!” He yelled at him.

 

“You are insane.” Maec said shaking his head.

 

Grimmjow used his sonido and shoved Maec through the small window that was in the bathroom. Asuna moved to see as they plummeted some. Grimmjow got himself straight in the air and Maec hovered. The Sexta Espada was not holding back and he was unleashing cero after cero and Maec was phasing in and out quickly but Asuna knew it was expending great amounts of energy. Her Arrancar love knew how to fight the Shouten now and he was superb. He was laughing and taunting him as he actually landed several blows and Asuna turned her attention to the bedroom. She screamed and Ishin was in a puddle of blood. She grabbed him and ported to Yamasaki General and screamed for Nobu or Shinobu. Her son came forward and he yelped. Ishin was ashen as they took him. She was holding her clothes closed as Ishin was rushed to a trauma room. She tied her robe closed and she ported back to Korea. Grimmjow was still fighting Maec and she watched as they both were bloody and she was in awe of the Sexta Espada. He was holding his own and Maec was obviously not happy. She heard the Arrancar cry out the release of his zanpakuto and the flourish of reiastu was heavy. Maec was barely impressed but the beast became infinitely more powerful and he roared. Asuna had to cover her ears and blood erupted from Maec's ears and nose. He was in shock at the beast and he suddenly let loose his shoki form. Grimmjow laughed hysterically as the Shouten let loose a form he had not seen. She knew not to interfere lest she was harmed in the melee and Grimmjow was fighting in spite of grievous wounds and Maec was weakening. Asuna made a quick decision and she ported fast. Grimmjow felt her and looped his arm around her waist and she used laced his fingers in hers. They released a combined cero-nami and that should have obliterated Maec but the force slammed him into a tall tree. Skin hung off in places and bone could be seen but he lived. His breathing was shallow and his very presence shimmered.

 

“Good fight. I will come back for you. You Arrancar will be my next meal.” Maec said phasing away.

 

Grimmjow was bleeding all over Asuna and she ported them back into Naraku's small palace. He fell back on his butt and began laughing like a maniac again and she snorted.

 

“Damn bitch that was good.” He said wiping blood off of his face.

 

“How did you know?” She asked softly.

 

“Just did. Weird too. Come here esposa.” He said grabbing her and ripping open her robe.

 

“Grimmjow you need attention.” Asuna stated exasperated.

 

“Hai. I'm getting attention. So good.” He whispered as he kissed along her stomach and then pulled down her mouth to his.

 

She gasped as he laid her back and they were both a mess. He hooked both of her legs in his elbows and moved urgently.

 

“Did the battle arouse you?” She moaned.

 

“Hai! Seeing you use me to get that fucker.” He hissed.

 

Neither lasted long and her chest was heaving. She was covered in his blood and she needed to find Naraku.

 

“Yeah we'll get him. Let's go do that shower thing and we'll find the arrogant half breed.” Grimmjow snorted.

 

She had not realized how much she had missed her Espada and they got cleaned up. She was sick a few more times and he made rude comments which she promptly gave him the middle finger for. He laughed and hugged her tightly. She ported them to Astana and she willed Shan Lao to her side and he looked surprised to see a hollow.

 

“Shan Lao this is Grimmjow. Grimmjow this is Shan Lao.” She said in introduction.

 

Grimmjow made a face and Shan Lao bowed graciously. Her Arrancar snorted at his formality and Shan Lao looked up at her with a soft smile.

 

“Maec came to pay me a visit and Sanra it seems may have taken Naraku.” She said in a low voice.

 

“Are you sure Naraku did not allow himself to be taken?” The Jing clan leader asked.

 

“You may be right. He is a lot stronger since Renshu did what he did.” Asuna murmured.

 

“Can I kill some?” Grimmjow asked in a growl.

 

“In a little while perhaps. I need to know what Naraku is thinking.” She said closing her eyes and she flooded her hanyou with her thoughts.

 

She realized Shan Lao was right and her mate was not worried at all. In fact he was quite pleased by the prospect of being in Astana. He had felt Grimmjow and he had mentally called on him. Naraku was being devious and taking advantage of the situation.

 

“He does not want us to storm the palace. He wants us to wait and let him strike.” She murmured.

 

“Okay. Keep the connection open. Arrancar do you wish to come to my home?” Shan Lao asked.

 

“No. I want my boy. See ya later bitch.” He said grinning.

 

“You are a mess Grimmjow.” Asuna said shaking her head.

 

“Yep and I'm gonna lay you down and make you moan like a little whore soon. You owe me a kit.” He said winking at her and he produced a garganta.

 

Shan Lao was actually blushing and the Sexta Espada laughed loudly at his blush. He walked through and waved at her. He blinked at her and her at him.

 

“I have never met an Arrancar quite like him.” He said with a strange tone.

 

“He was a neko prince at one time. He is just who he is.” She shrugged.

 

“I need to find some nourishment.” Shan Lao said still blushing hotly.

 

“Whatever is wrong?” Asuna asked.

 

“He is wild and untamed. His very person oozes much and his words are inflaming.” He said looking almost shy.

 

“I see.” She said and she suddenly guided his mouth to her neck.

 

He was surprised by her move and he phased them back to Britain. She felt his fangs sink into the skin of her neck and she gasped. He clutched at her and one hand ran through her hair.

 

“Where is Lei?” She asked in a haze.

 

He lifted his lips and his eyes were mixed at the moment. He met her eyes a moment and he phased her clothes away. He did the same to himself and Shan Lao lifted her up. He was shaking badly as he joined with her and this was not how he normally acted but then he never thought that anything that had happened would. He was not entirely sure of anything except his deep desire to be in ecstasy at the moment and he was.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna had appeared in Budapest and Eyal was quite delighted. She was going through his libraries and she was linking up timelines. Naraku had told her that Amedeo was indeed missing and so was Justinus. Amedeo would not leave his son for anything and it was bothering her badly. Eyal watched his longtime wife read and scribble furiously on paper as she was reading something off topic. She knew what she was reading but it occurred to her that he collected books without always knowing what he had.

 

“When is the last time you have been to Africa?” She asked.

 

“A long while. I live here so why would I go there?” Eyal asked amused.

 

“Well considering you are from Northern Africa; I figured more often then naught.” Asuna replied.

 

She heard laughter and she looked up to see her son Asher and Nalah were with him. He stared at his mother and smiled. She nodded to him and she hid a smirk as the tr'Awnhi princess attacked her son. He was flattened against the hallway and Eyal sighed.

 

“They want to get married.” He said testily.

 

“Let them.” She shrugged.

 

“A wraith?” He asked in irritation.

 

“She is a blood drinker just like he is. She is not a member of the clan anymore and I assure you there are good ones occasionally.” Asuna said eyeing him.

 

“If he is happy but a Shouten?” He snapped.

 

“Shut up Eyal.” She said as she went back to reading.

 

“You have nerve woman.” Eyal said standing and stretching.

 

She looked up at him and smiled. She knew she could torture Yhea and the thought had possibilities. He was a good soul in his inner being but he was still so full of himself. She smirked and suddenly stood. She walked up behind him and she ported them to his room. He looked surprised but suddenly more then interested in what she was doing. She fell against him and it became a consumption. Her Ramanga mate was sleeping like the dead and she was feeling frisky. She knew it had to be the surge in the inu hormones and she felt a little better then she had. She ported to the hills outside of Budapest and Yhea stared at her with wide eyes.

 

“Why did you do that?” He whispered.

 

“Because I can. I also have no intention of letting you off of your heinous behavior so easily. Besides tell me you did not enjoy it.” She said smirking.

 

“You can be an evil and devious bitch!” He snapped.

 

She smiled at him and his heart pounded. He grabbed her intending to sate himself and they both stiffened. They felt a presence they had never felt before and Asuna saw across the clearing a female of ethereal beauty. She had such pallid skin and her dark eyes were bright. Her long ebony hair was done up in an elegant style the spoke of ancient times.

 

“What the hell?” Yhea whispered.

 

“She is uppyr. I think I know what kind too.” Asuna said in a soft tone.

 

The onna stared at them both with curiosity and her malice was barely suppressed. Yhea had never seen an uppyr like this he was sure and she shook her head no.

 

-You have. You went stupid over him in fact. - She pathed.

 

“Him? He is one of these?” He asked shocked.

 

The female neared closer and it was obvious she was hungry. It was also obvious she was powerful.

 

“Yhea go.” She said hotly.

 

“What? Remember you are hurt and several of us are hurt. I think not.” He said pursing his lips.

 

“Eyal will be here in moments now go!” She snarled.

 

Yhea made a face and the female continued to stare at her. She knew the presence of a strange uppyr would wake up Eyal and he always knew who was in his territory. She did not wait long and he suddenly ported to her side. He was stunned when he saw the female who cocked her head to the side and stared at him.

 

“She does not seem to know any of the languages we know.” Asuna stated.

 

“She is ancient. Whoever she is. She is thirsting badly and in a primitive state.” He said watching the female.

 

“You got all that?” She asked surprised.

 

“She let me know it. Odd.” He said cocking his head to the side.

 

The female was hungering badly and she could smell the blood of the other woman. She was suddenly on her and Asuna threw her back. The black haired onna bared her fangs and Eyal stepped in.

 

“Surely you can speak some language.” He replied in old Hebrew.

 

“Yes.” She snarled.

 

“You stand upon my lands woman and this is my wife. Do not think to touch her.” Eyal said with red eyes.

 

“She is empusae and you are not.” The woman suddenly purred.

 

“We are all uppyr.” He said flatly.

 

A hiss again and suddenly Eyal was flat on his back with will alone. He was so shocked that another could even do this besides Asuna and he stared up at the obviously ancient blood drinker and she was ravenous.

 

“You will give me sustenance and then I will know what goes on.” She said suddenly sinking her fangs into his neck.

 

Asuna moved with speed and she pulled the female off of Eyal and he was in pain. He was in horrific pain and he stared at the woman with contempt. She wiped his blood from her mouth and she was watching him too closely.

 

“Who are you to attack me?” He roared.

 

“You are a babe in comparison. You have powerful blood to be sure.” She said with bright eyes.

 

“Leave and never return or I will hunt you down and kill you on principle.” Eyal said shaking in anger.

 

“Why would I leave when I just find out you are my child.” She said grinning.

 

“Ayille?” Asuna asked in a whisper.

 

Eyal stared at her and he looked at Asuna. His brother had told him of their parents' names but it did not register to him what was happening.

 

“You are Ramanga?” Asuna demanded.

 

“Yes. This boy is my youngest it seems.” She said walking around him.

 

“You abandoned me!” Eyal roared.

 

“Perhaps but it was in your best interest.” Ayille said showing fangs.

 

“You have just woken. Why are you here?” Asuna said in a low growl.

 

“I was awoken by a wraith of all beings.” She said watching Asuna with hunger in her face.

 

“A Shouten?” Eyal asked in fury.

 

“One that does not like her very much.” Ayille said grinning.

 

“Maec?” Asuna asked in contempt.

 

“No his name was Raganos I believe.” She said licking her pale lips.

 

“You said you abandoned me because why?” Eyal asked staring hard.

 

“Kerr and I were being hunted by mortals. I hold no shame and say I feast upon the weaker beings like the cattle they are. You were conceived at a very bad time.” She said flatly.

 

“Right. You abandoned three children that I know of.” The uppyr ruler said gritting his teeth.

 

“You know nothing! You know nothing of why I did what I did.” Ayille stated in sudden fury.

 

“Enlighten me then. Do not say it because we cannot love our children because I have three and one I adopted as mine. I adore my children.” He said dangerously.

 

“Because you were in danger by staying with us.” She hissed.

 

“I do not believe a word you say.” He said baring his own fangs.

 

“You think Grigory and Muriana are your only siblings?” She asked watching him closely.

 

“I know not. How could I? I was dumped amongst mortals who mistreated and abused me. I was but a child you know.” Eyal stated in old pain.

 

“You were abandoned because you were strong. You could survive. I had to loose my child in order to save him. The mortals have sects of priests who can kill Ramanga easily. I was not about to loose another son to a filthy human.” She said growling.

 

“So you give me to them!” He yelled.

 

“Hide in plain sight.” She said growling in return.

 

“Brilliant plan. Well Grigory lived on as well and Muriana died at the hands of the Shouten.” He said snarling in rage.

 

“Grigory was a fool and my daughter too soft.” She said with contempt.

 

“You speak of two beings that I adored you sow.” Eyal snarled.

 

Eyal stiffened when he felt Jarek and Rina come up the hill. Ayille turned to stare at the two adult children and she smiled widely.

 

“Well well well. Two of your four. Both Ramanga.” She said pleased.

 

“Go back now!” Eyal hissed.

 

Rina stared at the female in wonder and her father was suddenly between them.

 

“Jarek! I said go now! There is nothing interest here.” Their sire stated flatly.

 

“Da father.” Jarek said pulling Rina.

 

Rina was staring at the woman and she was in awe of the power she felt. She felt herself dragged by her brother and Eyal stared at the woman who had given birth to him. Asuna was itching to tear Raganos a new one and Ayille watched the empusae female.

 

“You were conceived at a bad time but you were wanted. You were desired greatly but no mortal priest would end your life!” She hissed as she neared him.

 

“Back off whore! I have no time for you and your kind. I am quite content not knowing you.” He growled.

 

“Do not say things you may regret my son. Again you state what you do not know.” She snapped.

 

“I know that I was scared as a child and made to feel like a monster. I was lonely and alone. I hated myself and I hated what I was. I was ignorant and nearly died because of it. If I was in danger then why did you not come back for me?” Eyal demanded.

 

“Again there are many things you do not know but I was asleep.” Ayille hissed.

 

“Asleep? For two thousand years?” He asked in disbelief.

 

“Yes. So before you whine boy you should shut up.” She said hissing softly.

 

“My name is Eyal and I have not been a boy in a very long time. I am a father now and you fit nowhere into my life. Now do yourself and me a favor and leave.” He said in supreme anger.

 

“This is not the last time you will see me Eyal.” She said stepping back and she ported away.

 

He was dumbfounded and he stared at his long time partner. She came to him and hugged him tightly.

 

“Why would the Shouten ruler do such a thing?” He demanded.

 

“I am sure it is a distraction. She is immensely powerful Eyal.” Asuna commented.

 

“I hate to say this but please will you arrange a meeting between the incubus and me?” He asked.

 

Asuna nodded and Eyal ported back to his townhouse. She ported to Paris and she walked through Sebastein's home. She heard squealing of the Celeste and Manami and she walked into the living room. Her incubus lover looked up and gave her a devastating smile. The twins were banging their toys and he was smiling widely.

 

“They are sleeping through the night and they both are so bright.” He stated with joy.

 

“They are both the daughters of brilliant men. How could they not be smart?” She asked softly.

 

“Oui I know I am smart; the canine well he is just well read.” Bastian teased.

 

Asuna chuckled and Sebastein was truly happy.

 

“You are shielding which can never be good. What is going on?” Sebastein asked.

 

“Eyal has asked for a meeting with you. Of all the people to show up a Ramanga named Ayille did.” Asuna murmured.

 

“Shit! He is in trouble. She is queen of sorts Asuna. She enjoys death from the rumors. The old legends of the Ramanga are what the modern day vampire are based on.” He said standing and Celeste begged to be picked up.

 

Asuna leaned down and automatically picked up her daughters and Bastian watched with warmth in his green eyes. She was speaking in soft Japanese and she was walking with them for awhile. She finally released them to the nanny and he neared her.

 

“I will go now.” He murmured as he threaded his fingers in her hair.

 

“Oh?” She asked looking up at him.

 

“You are making me wanton.” He whispered as he lowered his lips to hers.

 

She was eagerly accepting his offerings and he was getting too used to be happy again. Sebastein grunted and picked her up. They were going to have an intense but quick encounter. He sat her on the back of the couch and he felt her latch her fangs onto his jugular. He made a long sigh as he shoved himself into her and moved urgently. She would not release his throat and he suddenly did the same to her. Dizziness descended on them both as the dual explosion rocked them. Sebastein was shaking as he released her throat and kissed her mouth passionately. Bitter thoughts of Danika never even entered his mind.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Naraku showed up the next day and he looked overly pleased with himself. She stared at him and blinked her eyes at her beloved.

 

“Well?” She asked.

 

“Sanra was lying in a pool of blood damn near dead but that bastard showed up.” He said furiously.

 

“Maec?” Asuna asked softly.

 

“Yes. He does not like me now. He swore vengeance.” He shrugged with an evil smirk.

 

“Good!” She said with hate filled eyes.

 

“Why are you masking?” He said picking up a teapot and pouring himself some.

 

“You really wish to know?” She asked in a murmured tone.

 

“I believe I asked.” He said irritated.

 

She unmasked herself and he set down his teacup immediately. His eyes bled crimson and his heart began racing. Somehow she ended up against the wall and he was staring in her eyes.

 

“The other night?” He asked in an almost drugged tone.

 

“Hai.” She whispered.

 

“Kamis you smell so good.” He said in rather husky tone.

 

“I assumed you did not wish another right now.” She stated as his lips found her neck.

 

“I say it then I smell you. Koi, I am fixing to claim you.” Naraku said in an almost dark way.

 

Her lips quivered and he made her scream his name. She was in a blissful lethargy at the moment and she was next to her hanyou. She felt a niggling on her mind and she slipped from the bed. She ported out to Tokyo and she found Jin pacing in front of her penthouse. He looked at her sheepishly and he sighed.

 

“I was hoping you could hear me.” He said running a hand through his hair.

 

“I have heard you.” She said.

 

“I am sorry how I reacted.” Jin said still pacing.

 

“Okay you are sorry. Do you know what time it is?” She asked.

 

“Hai I know what time it is. I cannot sleep or cannot eat at the moment.” He admitted.

 

“Jin, what is wrong with you?” She asked.

 

“In one night we do what I have always wanted from you and I am finding myself reeling.” He said softly.

 

“Jin can we have this conversation later?” Asuna asked annoyed.

 

“No! I will tell you now. You always pushed me away and you did as you wished. I do not want it that way. I want this pup more then I can say and by the Gods I want you.” He said suddenly angry.

 

“You will have our daughter.” She said gently.

 

“I want her mother as well.” He yelled.

 

“I cannot be that way.” She said clenching her fists.

 

“I know what you are capable of. I am telling you that I will be part of your life. I will not be a small part either. You bewitched me Asuna. You bewitched me centuries ago and I have been wallowing.” He said lifting her up and forcing her to wrap her legs around him.

 

“If I have to make myself your adversary then I will. I will fight you in order to love you.” He said threading his fingers into her hair.

 

“Jin do not be silly.” She said in a heavy whisper.

 

“There was another timeline. You changed it did you not? I have flashes of things. I am sure I allowed myself to go insane. Why else would I do those terrible things?” He demanded.

 

“You have flashes?” She asked horrified.

 

“Hai. I know not exactly but I refuse to allow it to be my reality. This is the current way and I will exploit it. You were jealous of Teegan at one time.” He whispered in a sultry undertone.

 

“I suppose I was.” She said growling.

 

“Because you are part inu. Hai you are empusae but you have such strong inu instincts as well. Admit it, when you claim one of your men then subconsciously you want them wholly devoted to you. Sheng told me what happened with Naraku. You are seething are you not?” He whispered.

 

“Hai.” She admitted.

 

“I do know you.” He said whispering against her mouth.

 

They were standing in the hallway outside of her penthouse and she was wrapped around him. Jin slowly kissed her deeply. It was escalating and Asuna knew that her father was inside. She ported them to Karakura Town suddenly and he leaned her back on the bed. He undid the silk robe she wore and spread it open. She gasped softly as his lips and tongue ran slowly over her throat and down her sternum. There was a powerful drag on her senses but she paid it no mind. His wonderful mouth was making her drugged and she felt him gently pulling on a tip with his teeth as she groaned.

 

“Jin!” She cried out.

 

“I was never this insane for her you know.” He stated as he gently slipped fingers inside of her.

 

She was still feeling a powerful aura and she was trying to fight her lust to focus but he began to stroke her g-spot. Something was hovering and Asuna could only focus on him at the moment.

 

“Jin! Damnit just…” She tried to say.

 

“Hush onna. You took advantage of my situation last time.” He growled.

 

“You do not feel something?” Asuna moaned.

 

“I do not care.” Jin hissed as he slid inside of her.

 

The way he moved always left her reeling. She was gasping harder as they moved. She heard a hissing sound and she looked over at Ichigo. Her eyes widened in anger and Jin was furious as well. The Panyu lord stared at the shinigami in tremendous anger.

 

“Ichigo!” She snapped.

 

“Damn Suna!” Ichigo said snarling.

 

Ichigo stormed out and Jin was shaking in his need.

 

“Lift your legs. I need to finish this.” He commanded.

 

She bit her own lips as he unleashed every bit of yoki and pent of passion. She was overwhelmed in it and she snarled out. He snarled out as her own climax joined his and he was sweating profoundly. They were shaking in the aftermath and he slowly kissed her. She was the one who felt drained and Jin slowly slid back. She made herself move as she dressed quickly. They always had an explosive personal life and that would never change. His assertions were inflaming her and he was watching her as she pulled on a sweater.

 

“That ningen is a lover?” He demanded.

 

“No. We have not been involved in a long while.” She admitted.

 

He nodded and he crawled under her covers. She stormed into the other room and he was outside in the air staring at the river.

 

“What the hell Ichigo? Hinata is with you this week.” She said growling.

 

“Yeah well I thought I'd tell you that Aizen has been hitting Soul Society pretty hard. Thought you'd like to know I've even seen some of your kids.” He snapped.

 

“Which of my pups are you referring?” She demanded.

 

“Well there's the blonde one with brown eyes and two with silver hair and green eyes. Then there's one more.” He said in suppressed anger.

 

“Hikari, Kai, and Kanami. They are my Tomoshibi pups.” Asuna said calmly.

 

“Okay so all four?” He asked.

 

“Kazaki is a babe.” She said shaking her head.

 

“Well this dude was not and he was fucking strong. Took out an Arrancar like he was nothing.” He said crossing his arms.

 

“What did he look like Ichigo?” She demanded.

 

“Really pale blonde hair and your eyes. He had your moon.” He said grunting in anger and jealousy.

 

“Kazaki but he was and oh shit! Jin! I have to go.” She said panicked.

 

Jin was up in a second and she was walking away fast.

 

“Where did you see him Ichigo?” She demanded.

 

“I saw him here in Karakura.” Ichigo stated.

 

“Stay here Jin and call Sheng.” She said porting out.

 

She was on Fuji and she mentally called on Kaimei. He was not responding and she was getting worried. She whirled around when she felt another presence and a handsome young man watched her. He was obviously Tomoshibi and it was very obviously Kazaki.

 

“Hello Haha.” He said warmly.

 

“But you were here and now you are and what the hell is going on?” She yelled.

 

“Father thought it prudent to take me back. I have known you all my life. I assure they are good memories.” He said stepping forward.

 

“Kazaki, the last I saw you was less then a month ago and Kaimei asked for you to stay in Soul Society. I agreed because I felt it was safest. Why are you an adult?” She snarled.

 

“Because Father sent me here to assist you. He is injured horribly and he felt that he could not be of help to you otherwise.” He said gently.

 

“Why? Who injured him?” Asuna said shocked.

 

“Uncle Kaito. It was a nasty brawl. I am in his stead at the moment and he is on the same dimension as the Soul King.” He explained.

 

“What the hell is going on?” She raged.

 

“I am Kazaki mother. I know it goes against what you wished but I am a very powerful Tomoshibi.” He reasoned.

 

“I am sure you are! You are a Hasegawa. I resent that I do not remember having a hand in raising you!” She said actually beginning to cry.

 

“Minkah is lurking as well.” He said shrugging.

 

“What?” She said narrowing her eyes.

 

“Hai. I am sorry. If you have us in the past then we should be here now. This is where the fighting is and damnit we are some of your strongest pups Haha.” He said narrowing his eyes that mirrored her own.

 

“But Kazaki I would have chosen to keep you here. I did not have you to fight my battles.” She said in anger.

 

“No you did not but we love you. We wish to help you and we shall. Minkah is just as stubborn as you are.” He laughed.

 

“I resent this.” She said wiping her face.

 

“Again I am sorry. I am in charge of the family in Soul Society right now at Chichi's decree. I am making the decisions.” He said holding her face.

 

“Why not Hikari? She is your elder.” Asuna said blinking.

 

“Not when I grew up. I was already half grown when father sired her. Kaito and Kaimei will never see eye to eye simply because they both love you. You are a former Tomoshibi princess and therefore you belong to my father. We love you Haha. We adore you and we all know you are an awesome mother but we also know you are a warrior. Now you are freaking yourself out for naught.” He shrugged.

 

He phased them to Karakura Town and Ichigo was nearby. He was surprised to see the young man again and Asuna was shaking.

 

“You know I do know you in my era Haha. I know you well. I also know how much you wept when my sire asked you to allow me to stay. I tell you to keep out a paradox but it is alright. I am much more useful in full power of my yoki and I can help you here.” He said smiling.

 

She was amazed at him and she was feeling a menacing presence. Kazaki felt it as well and he whirled around.

 

“Mother allow me to wield Konkisaiga?” He asked quickly.

 

She extended her hand and her fang appeared. He grabbed it from her and Maec appeared in the shadows. He looked furious and he stared at the Tomoshibi near his obsession.

 

“Another one of you worthless beings!” He yelled.

 

“Hai whatever.” Kazaki said smirking.

 

“Do not be so full of yourself brat!” Maec stated clenching his fists.

 

“Oh I am sure of myself. Come at me night wraith.” He said with a smirk on his face.

 

Maec knew this male Tomoshibi was obviously her child but they came at the other and the blade he wielded suddenly lit up with a tremendous electric current. Asuna watched in amazement as Kazaki expertly sliced at and ducked Maec's attacks. Both wraiths were moving so fast and they were phasing in and out as they did so. Maec was so full of wrath that he suddenly whirled around and slammed his fist into Asuna's face and she did not expect it. She was thrown backwards and Kazaki grew furious. All of his yoki seemed translucent in its appearance and Maec screamed in agony as he was sliced into. Jin knelt near Asuna as she wiped blood off of a deep cut on her cheek. The Panyu lord pulled his fang and Kazaki looked over.

 

“About time!” He yelled.

 

“Pardon me?” Jin asked as the ended up back to back.

 

“Itsuyo is my sister idiot. About time her father joined in the fight!” Kazaki stated as if Jin should know.

 

“Hai. Your toxin will harm him. Give me your hand Panyu.” Her son stated as he grabbed Jin's hand.

 

Kazaki had her ability to channel and Maec was stabbed through his chest and both inu and wraith pulled their hands back. Blood spurted from the wound in the Shouten king and it dawned on him that he would die if he did not leave. He phased out barely and Jin hissed in annoyance.

 

“Your toxin is really similar to Dakkasou. It reacts in the Shouten really slowly. Almost like arsenic.” Kazaki explained.

 

“I see. Asuna are you alright?” Jin asked.

 

“Hai I think so. My left eye is blurry.” She said ashamed of herself.

 

“He laced it with his toxin. Nasty brute.” Her son said in anger.

 

“You are staying corporeal for long lengths of time.” Asuna observed.

 

“I am a corporeal Tomoshibi Haha. Father was shocked as well. I can dwell on both if I choose. Come on you two. Shinigami go home!” Kazaki called out.

 

Ichigo had witnessed the whole thing and he was suddenly gone. Jin helped Asuna up and they were phased to Yamasaki General. Kazaki bowed and he phased out so he did not confuse or cause issue.

 

Jin led her to the emergency department and Shinobu sat her down. He clucked in annoyance and he could smell both Naraku and Jin on her.

 

“Oh this is really funny.” He said under his breath.

 

“What?” Asuna asked.

 

“Panyu? Are you and Naraku on friendly terms?” Shinobu asked almost laughing.

 

“I have barely seen the dark hanyou since the Sengoku Jidai, why?” He asked.

 

“Well get to know him because your pup is a twin to his babe.” Shinobu stated suppressing his amusement.

 

“Shinobu you are going to get it!” She snapped.

 

“Well you should give your body a break!” He yelled.

 

Jin was in shock and surprise as he digested what he had been told. He hated Naraku with a passion simply because he could not compete with the hanyou. He had adored and loved Mizuki too but the hanyou had stripped him of her as well. Now his own pup shared the womb with his bitter rival.

 

“I should be glad to see Naraku again after all this time.” He said crossing his arms.

 

“JIN!” She snapped.

 

“No fears Asuna. I truly hold no ill will towards him for killing Teegan. He just got to her before I did. I should have liked her death to be more merciful but no matter. I shall be glad to see him again indeed.” He said smiling.

 

She rolled her eyes and she knew Minkah was grown and Kazaki had told her that he had been lurking. She was troubled and she realized that things in the past must be not so great either. She was shaking and she looked at her doctor son.

 

“Chichi Naraku is going to have another girl. As if he did not have enough already.” He said shaking his head.

 

“What of Lady Lansoh?” Asuna asked numbly.

 

“At Sendai like you commanded and Chichi Ishin was shocked as shit.” He said chuckling.

 

“Watch your mouth!” She said narrowing her eyes.

 

“Hai Haha.” He said suppressing all kinds of mirth.

 

“You will be okay. Just stay away from the Shouten for a little while.” He said letting her get up after he put drops in her eye.

 

She was still troubled by the many things happening and she ported back to Karakura Town and Jin followed. They finally settled down to sleep and she realized he had not been too overbearing or tell her what to do too much. She wondered a little what their pup would look like and she hoped she had Jin's blue eyes.

Maec was suffering and he could feel madness beginning to take hold. This was not supposed to happen. There was supposed to be no other wraith or uppyr more powerful then him and he was certain he had met one tonight in the pale headed brat. He was shaking in rage and he knew he needed one of her doctor children or the damn bug himself to heal. He would die a very slow, agonizing death if he did not. Sanra was in a death sleep and Raganos had found the crypt of the Ramanga queen Ayille. The Ramanga were their own breed of nastiness and he decided to let nature take its course there. He grew agitated and he decided to take the bug.

 

“My son. Can you kidnap someone for me?” He asked in a pained voice.

 

“Depends upon who you want.” Raganos said leaning against the doorway.

 

“That doctor in this Tokyo. The one she has a few children with. The spider male.” Maec said grimacing.

 

“The famed Yamasaki Nobu. He is an older spider who they say has lots of compassion.” Raganos said flatly.

 

“Compassion hmmm? Think we should break him?” Maec asked in a nasty tone.

 

“I think you would make her loose her mind. They say she guards her spider males jealously and irrationally.” He said with a nasty smirk.

 

“The halfling tore up your aunt so that leaves who?” Maec asked in a nasty whisper.

 

“Lord Ishin and Nobu. The old rumors are that she was a spideress in a previous life and she was a founder of this kingdom. They said her power was immense and she died at the hands of humans of all beings.” Raganos stated beginning to pace.

 

“I want those two brought before me. Leave a wide swath of destruction as well.” Maec commanded.

 

The elder tr'Awnhi closed his eyes and he was happily contemplating making her suffer. He hoped Raganos would not screw this up and he fell into a troubled sleep.

Ishin was rocking Noe to sleep and he was drowsy himself. Naraku had informed him of what happened with Lansoh and Asuna. Ishin had told him it was unfair. He grumbled at her decency to the hanyou but when Teiran had kidnapped him; well hell had no fury. He sighed and continued to rock his beautiful little girl and he missed Iyo when she was tiny. Iyo had always been his baby and he had suffered when she had been killed. She visited often and he still adored his sweet girl. Noe was snoring softly and he suddenly felt her ripped away from him. He shouted out and he was surrounded by Shouten.

 

“I suggest you cooperate because frankly I am hungry and killing her would be really easy.” Raganos said smirking with malice.

 

“Do not hurt her.” Ishin said not moving.

 

“To hell with it.” Raganos said smiling.

 

Ishin watched in utter horror as Noe's neck was broken and he screamed in terror. Raganos threw the tiny body away and he suddenly phased his hand into Ishin's chest.

 

“Scream spider. Go ahead! Your bitch mate should have learned long ago that she should not attempt to fuck with the Shouten. Storm the rest of this castle and kill all you find!” He said with a devilish smile.

 

Ishin could not even scream as he watched Noe on the ground. He was shaking as Raganos ripped his hand back and he suddenly sank to the floor.

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

Asuna sat up in a cold sweat and she threw on a robe. She ported to Sendai and she screamed out. Her hands were shaking as she neared Noe and she was astonished the tiny toddler still breathed. She was not moving and Asuna realized that her neck was broken.

 

“Noe. Haha is here. I am taking you now.” She whispered in terror.

 

Her baby whimpered and she ported them to Yamasaki General. She was in shock as it was a scene of chaos. Doctors and nurses were scrambling to try and save many who were dying and she saw bodies everywhere.

 

“Where is Nobu?” She screamed.

 

“Taken Lady Asuna.” A nurse replied.

 

She ported them to the in between in Britain and she was suppressing her sobs.

 

“Jao! Jao! Lei! Shan Lao!!!” She screamed.

 

Jao ran into the hall and so did Lei. Lei was horrified and Jao neared the tiny spideress.

 

“Her neck is broken. I can fix this Lady Asuna. She is still breathing but not for long okay?” Jao said gently.

 

“Save her please. Please save her. Where is Nanami?” Asuna asked in a trembling voice.

 

“What do you mean where is she? She was at the hospital.” Jao said shocked.

 

“The hospital and Sendai were ransacked. Please Lei send some of your clansmen to search the castle at Sendai. I have to see what else…” She trembled.

 

Lei yelled for Yhea, Hanaj, Hatham, and Neral to accompany him. Asuna ported back to the hospital and she was slowly taking in the damage. She walked into an adjoining office of Nobu's and Nanami was lying there in a huge pool of blood. She shook as she knelt near her daughter and she listened frantically for her heart. She began to sob uncontrollably as she held the baby of her adult pups. Bihua ran in and he hissed when he saw the body of Yamasaki Nanami and his lover holding her child.

 

“My lady? Is she??” He asked trembling.

 

Asuna could not answer and rage was in her at the personal nature of this attack. She was releasing huge amounts of yoki and she looked up.

 

“Take her Bihua. Take her to Paris and you tell Sebastein to finish what nature had started. You tell him to save my baby girl!” She screamed.

 

Bihua knelt near Princess Nanami and he ported out to find the incubus. She was stumbling as she again began to take in the devastation. Only Sendai and Yamasaki General had been attacked and she knew her other pups were safe except for Naota. She ported to Sendai and she saw many dead. Lady Lansoh was amongst the casualties and she felt horrible regret. Her claws were leaking Dakkasou as she had to hold onto the wall.

 

“Aya?” She called.

 

Aya stepped out and she was in full armor. She stared at Asuna with a haunted look and she fighting back tears.

 

“Naota?” Asuna whispered.

 

“He changed form. The little guy heard the shouts and yelling and he changed form and hid in the eaves. Nobu always told the children to do as such.” Aya said almost loosing it herself.

 

“Find Nobuyuki and tell him that his stepmother needs him. Also find any of our warriors and get Naraku.” She said wanting to be sick.

 

“He is here my lady. He is not doing well either. Lady Emi was taken to Karakura Town General.” Aya explained.

 

“Where is Osamu?” She asked suddenly.

 

“They took him too. He hid Sami and sacrificed himself.” She said as tears fell down her face.

 

“We regroup Aya. We will get them back and soon.” Asuna said trying to hold it together.

 

Aya bowed and Asuna fell to her knees. Her claws pierced the palms of her hands and she suddenly ported to Tokyo. She walked through her penthouse and her sire appeared.

 

“Maec ordered an attack. They have Ishin, Osamu, and Nobu.” She said unable to look at him.

 

“Then we strike this night.” Sesshomaru said in a dead calm.

 

“Chichi, they broke Noe's neck. I do not know if Nanami will live and Emi is in the hospital.” She said wiping her face.

 

“We move this night. These vermin will die.” He said staring straight ahead.

 

She nodded and he pulled her into a hug. He wrapped his elegant arms around his eldest daughter and she actually broke down.
