Glorious Dawn Over a Blood Red Moon

 

Mas was planning an escape and he was tired of being prisoner to his own creation. She could be the most sadistic bitch that the Gods ever made and he was sick of it. He missed Anazel; his longtime lover and Hibari was nothing but a succubus induced obsession. He was not an innocent in anything but he tried not to be heartless. His jailer would come in about once every other day and it was about the time for her to arrive. He waited and he planned to attack. Hibari did arrive not long after and he saw her slip into the suite of rooms that served as his prison. It was a glorious prison but still a jail nonetheless. She looked around and she could not sense him. It was taking all his power to mask and he suddenly was behind her. She snarled as he grabbed her arms behind her and held them tightly.

 

“I will break them!” He snarled.

 

“You wish to be rough today?” She smirked.

 

“Oh you bitch! Let me go. I am nothing to you but a fucking toy.” Mas snarled.

 

“Pretty much.” Hibari said grinning.

 

“Let me go and I will leave you alone. I will never come after you and I will not participate with my family.” He snapped.

 

“Oh? Why would I do that?” She asked looking back.

 

“I had a woman. I love her and I want to be with her. This is nothing and she will think I left her. I wish to be with her and marry her. I wish for her to bear my children and be my wife.” He said in a hoarse tone.

 

“You love her? Yet you turned me? How was this supposed to be Mas?” She asked surging her strength.

 

She broke his grasp and she slammed him against the door. He was in a rage as she stared at his face. Hibari could feel his deep pain being separated from this woman and for an unknown reason jealousy ate at her. She suddenly pulled him forward by the back of the neck and he was astonished as she pressed her forehead to his. She was breathing hard and he was very confused.

 

“What is her name?” Hibari asked softly.

 

“Anazel.” He said breathing hard.

 

Hibari softly took his mouth and he groaned a little as she stroked his tongue with hers. She reached up and undid his ebony pony tail so that her fingers could run through his hair. Mas lost it and deepened the rather gentle kiss. He could not believe himself yet again but Hibari was being extremely tender at the moment. She undid his shirt and he wrenched his lips away and she lifted the hem of the linen. He slammed himself against her and began the kiss again but with more intensity and more need. His hands went to her pants and undid them. He quickly phased her clothes off and she in turn did the same to him. His lips began to scorch her neck and her eyes shut as he laved his tongue along her throat. He kissed along her jaw then met her mouth again. His pale skin moved under her hands as he tried to stop himself.

 

“Mas.” She whispered.

 

“Yes?” He moaned.

 

“Why did you turn me? Why did you do this?” She asked as she softly grasped his cock.

 

“I told you; my father ordered it. I have the strength to turn.” He groaned softly.

 

“It took me away from my life.” Hibari whispered as she flicked her thumb along his glans.

 

His eyes became cloudy and he stared at her intensely. His breathing became harder as she continued the sweet torture. Something about this was different and Mas was trying to catch his breath.

 

“What are you doing?” Mas asked becoming breathless.

 

“You are beautiful.” She said as she softly kissed his lips.

 

“What are your motives now?” He asked trying to clear his head.

 

She pulled away from him and he went to say something scathing and hateful but she leaned over him and brushed her cheek against his straining maleness. His eyes fluttered shut and it hit him she was going to torture him with actual tenderness. She kissed softly along his length and he moaned out. She ran her tongue softly and then licked at one testicle. His defenses shattered as she began to lave along them and his eyes were straining badly.

 

“Please do not torture me. I have had enough torture.” He said flatly.

 

She sucked one into her mouth as cries escaped his lips. His head fell back as she pleasured him and her fingers became busied. Mas gasped as she touched him. His hands became fists and his knuckles white as she lifted her lips to his throbbing cock. She sucked only on his head and he made a soft wraith shriek and Mas looked down to see her eyes straining to turn white. She was getting herself into a mad lust as well but she was working his body to an edge.

 

“Hibari! Let me feed you.” He begged.

 

She slowly released his purple head and she climbed into his lap. She slid down his staff and sank her fangs into his throat at the same time. The pleasure was unreal and quite unlike anything he had felt.

 

“Oh Gods.” He whispered out in blissful agony.

 

Hibari threw back her head and she allowed herself to just feel and by the Kamis he felt so good. Mas was a mess in his cries and he was actually cursing softly in Kazak. She really did not understand it and he was immersed in the perfection. She was allowing a true Shouten joining and he distantly realized it would doom him. He clutched at her back and began to feverishly kiss along her sternum and all over her breasts. His nips and sucks to her nipples were desperate and quick. Her hands became buried in his hair as he grabbed her hips and helped guide her. His forehead rested against her chest and his grunts were loud as it became heady and more passionate. Hibari was still eaten up that he had such strong feelings for this Anazel and she pulled him to their true forms. Mas whimpered and she felt his emotions as they continued to intertwine and combine. The building combustion was overwhelming them both. They had no idea how long they were in their ether forms but when they became corporeal; their voices were raw. Mas lifted her up and guided her to her side.

 

“Let me go.” He begged.

 

“So you can do this with her?” Hibari asked whimpering.

 

“I want my freedom.” Mas demanded as he kneaded and clutched her hip.

 

“I want your father to pay!” She snarled then moaned softly as he slipped back in her.

 

“He is my father.” He said beginning to kiss her neck.

 

“What he loves you or something?” She demanded.

 

“He loves some of us yes.” Mas growled as he guided her head at an awkward angle.

 

He attacked her mouth and the kiss was heady. She growled and moaned into it as he was taking her and bringing her to an amazing release. Mas had to grip her tightly as an overwhelming orgasm riveted him. He could not stop kissing her as he recovered his senses and he slowly pulled himself back. He fell to his back and this had been by far the most intense encounter he had with her. She sat up and she sighed as she stared up at the ceiling.

 

“If I see you aid your father then I will kill you.” She said getting up.

 

“How can you be such a bitch after we do this?” He demanded.

 

“I was controlling you Shouten. Go home but I do not want to see you aid that fucking bastard in any way.” She said standing.

 

“That is what making love feels like. Do you know what that means?” Mas yelled.

 

“Hai. I do as such with my mates. You are just pay back.” She snapped.

 

Mas could feel the tremendous barrier dissolve and he stared at her. She was truly letting him go. She was getting dressed and he was staring at her shapely backside. Lust ripped through him but he phased his clothes back on before she changed her mind. Mas was gone before she turned around.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

His longtime lover was not happy and in fact she was livid when he returned. Balkhash was a mess and he was standing in a doorway listening to Raganos throw a fit and several other siblings were demanding to know how he escaped. His elder brother stared at him and he only kept his face neutral.

 

“Father will return shortly I imagine. He swore you were taken by your own turned. What the hell happened?” Raganos demanded.

 

“She is an evil harlot and I hate her.” He said honestly.

 

“That woman is also powerful. Father thinks she has succubus in her as well.” He said nearing Mas.

 

“She does.” He said actually turning red.

 

“Good Gods.” His brother stated in horror.

 

“Yes. Anazel is not speaking with me. She sees me as betraying her.” Mas said sighing heavily.

 

“Then she is a fool.” Raganos stated with anger.

 

“Raganos please leave me alone okay? You have no clue what it is I have faced.” He said storming away.

 

Mas entered his room and he closed his door and stared at the bed. He felt turmoil and Anazel had accused him of enjoying his particular captivity. He was not entirely sure if he had not. The damn bitch had gotten under his skin and he was aching again. Mas went to low table that held wine and several other alcohols and poured a very stiff drink. He heard a knock on his door and he called out. His lover stepped in and his eyes perused her.

 

“I had hoped we may talk my lord.” Anazel stated.

 

“Please.” He sighed.

 

“Why Mas?” She asked with pleading eyes.

 

She was an unusual beauty; she had blue eyes. They were unheard of in a Shouten. Green eyes in the Sahen and Tomoshibi but never the color of calm skies. Her hair was midnight black and fell in soft waves all the way to her backside. She was technically of the tr'Awnhi clan but it was a distant branch. There was no blood between them and he was grateful for it. He had tried to steer away from the rampant incest that seemed to run in the family.

 

“I did as my father asked Anazel. I only did what he commanded damnit!” He cried softly.

 

“Your father is cruel and has no heart for you and for very few! Why would you serve that?” She demanded.

 

Mas neared her and grabbed her arm. He held it tightly and the look on his face was one of fear.

 

“Never speak out against him woman! He has spies everywhere.” He growled.

 

“Would you tell on me? I have no love of Maec tr'Awnhi. I thought his second eldest loved me but perhaps not.” She said with angry tears.

 

“How can you doubt my care? I have asked and asked for you to marry and bind to me but it is you who has said no Anazel! Not I! Why is that?” Mas asked in hurt.

 

“Because it has been chaos as of late and I have no wish to suffer a loss of that magnitude. You are a prince in this family and that could mean your death and mine.” Anazel said lifting her head.

 

Mas's eyes narrowed and her words wounded him. He looked away and his heart felt heavy. She stared at him and she knew she had spoken out of turn. Mas stiffened suddenly and his eyes went to the shadows. He could see the outline of her and Anazel strained to see the strange aura in the room. Hibari stepped from the shadows and the other Shouten woman's mouth dropped open. Hibari had felt his confusion and pain; for some reason she could not handle it.

 

“Why are you here? Have not done enough damage?” Anazel asked in sudden fury.

 

“I am here because I feel him. Why is that Mas?” She asked confused.

 

“I turned you. We are supposed to have a connection.” He mumbled.

 

“I see. You are not needed. Go away!” Hibari said to Anazel.

 

“Excuse me! She is here because I want her here!” Mas said in sudden anger.

 

“I wish to speak and I do not need an audience. Now she leaves of her own free will or I will make her leave.” Hibari growled.

 

Anazel knew what this woman had done and she stared at Mas in disbelief. It was widely known that this creature had murdered Sanra and the power she possessed was unreal.

 

“I will see you later my prince.” She said bowing.

 

“Anazel wait.” Mas said trying to stop her.

 

“Let her go!” Hibari commanded.

 

“You released me. Why can you not stop plaguing me? I have done nothing!” He said yelling at her in anger.

 

Anazel strained to listen near the door and Mas was yelling. Hibari neared him and stared up at his tormented face.

 

“I felt your anguish.” She said softly.

 

“You caused it.” He growled.

 

“Perhaps.” Hibari murmured.

 

“I do not want you here. I want to be free of you.” Mas screamed.

 

Hibari could feel his emotions and it was getting to her. She softly pulled him down to her mouth and it was suddenly devastating. His tongue battled hers and for the first time there was no pull on his senses except himself. He was horrified to realize that he did indeed want her. It was purely between male and female as he walked them back towards his bed. They fell back and he could not stop; he did not want to. He pulled his mouth back and his breathing was heavy.

 

“Say it.” He whispered.

 

“I want you.” She said in needy way.

 

He lay on his side and Mas dissolved into kissing her again. His hands could not be stilled and he was always a passionate man; he was also a loner amongst his siblings. Hanaj was his father's favorite supposedly and Raganos was his heir. Some of the girls had caught the wraith king's attention as well and a few of the other sons too. Hibari could hear his old thoughts and emotions and it made her sad. She pulled her lips away and stared at him.

 

“No sex.” She whispered.

 

“Huh?” He asked confused.

 

“No sex.” Hibari replied.

 

“But this and I and we…you say this now?” Mas sputtered.

 

She wrapped her hand around him and he was surprised by her words. She had done nothing but use the physical to control him since she had crossed paths with him after her turning. Hibari began to work his flesh and it was a slow build of sensation. Mas breathed into her neck and she stroked him too slowly. He squirmed against her and he stared at her.

 

“Gods! Damnit woman. You are a tease.” He groaned.

 

“No. I am not trying to tease you this time. I am not trying to be a mean bitch and I am not using you; in fact I want this to be about you.” She said suddenly.

 

“What?” Mas asked totally confused.

 

“No idea why. I should hate you and you should hate me.” Hibari stated licking his ear.

 

His eyes fluttered a little as the tender area around his ear caused a shudder down his spine. She pulled away from him a little and he tried to protest. He saw her bite off claws on two fingers and he watched her intrigued. She maneuvered herself to between his thighs and he sighed a little.

 

“Close your eyes and no peeking.” She commanded.

 

“Yes okay.” He said almost irritated.

 

He felt her begin to deposit feather light kisses to the base of his erection and his stones. He moaned softly and she was moving her wicked tongue and lips down. He let out a loud cry when he felt her tongue along his perineum. It dawned on him what she planned to do and he went to say something but she had begun to pleasure him. His eyes widened and he groaned loudly. Mas had no clue and she using her talented tongue in amazing ways. His breathing was coming faster when he felt her slip one finger inside of him.

 

“Hibari!” He yelped.

 

“Calm yourself.” She whispered.

 

“Not like this.” Mas said flatly.

 

“Hai. Relax Mas. There!” She smirked at him.

 

His world became a blur as the most intense sensation he had ever felt took over him. She slipped in the second finger and it was a burning sensation but also the deep pleasure of her massage. He tried to buck his hips but she held him steady.

 

“More! Please. Oh my gods. Hibari please!” He snarled.

 

“Hai.” She nodded.

 

She licked and kissed his swollen shaft and he hissed and groaned. She swallowed him and Mas began to drown in the sensations. His brain was overloaded and he was gasping. His hands grabbed her hair and his fingers threaded through her silver strands and his slight claws lightly scratched her scalp. She knew he needed blood but he was so close she could not stop. She increased her probing and massage and she increased her rhythmic sucking. Mas became totally blinded and his throat and mouth felt like cotton. He released the wraith noise as he had a mind shattering release. Hibari's own eyes were white but she took all of his climax and she carefully pulled back. The next thing he felt was something soft and warm against his mouth and he bit in. He heard her gasp above him and he could start to see a little. He groaned against the breast he was feeding from as she sighed. He wrapped his arms around her and he took deep draughts and she groaned loudly as he fed. He finally released her and stared at her face.

 

“Your turn.” He growled.

 

“No. I have to go.” She said trying to pull away.

 

“No. I cannot have this.” Mas said staring at her pert and pink buds.

 

“I said no Mas. I have to go. I am not using you this time remember?” Hibari asked.

 

“Shut up!” He snapped.

 

He had her flat on her back and she was stunned. Mas opened her widely so as to expose her fully. He was in a raging lust and at the moment he wanted to taste her as she screamed for him. He also wanted to fuck her into his bed. This time was so different because he wanted to do this and he was only under the influence of his hormones. He could see her clit already distended a little because she was aroused. He leaned down and held her thighs open. Hibari lifted her head up and she watched him begin to flick his tongue against her clit. He was wasting no time and she moaned.

 

“You are Shouten now. I want to do something to you.” He whispered.

 

“What?” She asked in a daze.

 

“I want you to trust me my turnling. I want you to allow me to fully enjoy you and make love to you.” Mas said kissing her clit.

 

Hibari shook a little and nodded. His eyes were simmering and he let his hiebie come forth. He brought his fingers to her nipples and barely touched the sensitive buds. She gasped as it tingled and he then repeated it to her clit. She thrashed under him but he held her steady.

 

“Gods you are leaking. Have you always been so wanton?” He asked slipping a finger inside of her.

 

“Not really.” She whimpered.

 

“Will you keep us like this? I do not want to hate you. I thought you so beautiful when I turned you. I did not think I would do this but I want you.” He said then leaning his head down and suckled her clit.

 

Hibari was feeling rushes and it was glorious. He was ravishing her button of nerves and it felt so good. His finger was stroking her inside and he was purposely stroking her “g-spot”. He lifted his head and he stared at her face contort.

 

“Come for me. Please Hibari. Let me taste you. Let me see you shatter too.” Mas husked.

 

He went back to aggressively suckling her clit and her breathing became harsh. Mas felt her core tighten around his probing finger and he shut his eyes as he could taste her orgasm. He took that moment to taste her finish and Hibari's eyes flew open. She screamed loudly but the powerful sensations wracked her body. Mas refused to leave his spot between her thighs as he fed and he intended to satiate his need to feel her channel wrapped around his cock. He reluctantly pulled back and his head was dizzy. He moved sluggishly but he pinned her.

 

“Need to feel you. I want to feel your slick heat around me.” Mas rasped.

 

“Mas no. Not this time.” Hibari whined.

 

“I want it this time! I want to feel you.” He growled.

 

She saw his face and she nodded slowly. Her stomach was rounded but she was not so heavy yet. He positioned himself and very slowly entered her again. She lifted her hips and he hissed softly.

 

“You grip me so tightly. I do not want you to be against me. I want to feel you. I need to feel you.” He said as he shifted his hips.

 

“Then why cling so harshly to these beasts?” She moaned out.

 

“We are these beasts.” He said softly as he began to nuzzle her neck as he pulled all the way back and thrust hard.

 

“Mas! Oh Kamis!” She yelped.

 

“I can make you whither too.” He said licking at her lips.

 

“Hai!” Hibari growled out as she grabbed his sculpted ass and dug claws in.

 

His face clouded in pleasure and she was gasping more. Mas realized in his capture and her forced mating of him; something had happened and he could not pinpoint it. He thrust madly and her cries were so numerous but it only served to arouse him all the more. He enjoyed when a woman would voice her pleasure. He enjoyed when his partner was consumed with bliss. It made it better for him and he slipped a finger between them and began to toy with her clit. He rubbed with feather light touches and Hibari's face crumpled completely. He felt her walls suddenly spasm so tightly that it caused him to spill. He moaned out as they shared in the completion together. She was gasping in and out as she gripped him. He knew she should not be here and slowly sense entered his head.

 

“Raganos will have you flayed alive.” He whispered.

 

“Not scared of him.” She retorted.

 

“Listen to yourself. You are reckless. I will drink first then you must leave.” Mas said pulling back.

 

“Drink? You need more blood?” Hibari asked surprised.

 

“No. I want to taste us.” He smirked.

 

“You kinky bastard.” She grinned.

 

“Yes well. I am Shouten and we are on a liquid diet.” He retorted.

 

She rolled her eyes then groaned when he did taste her. He left her weak in the knees and she phased her clothes back on. She phased away and Mas lay there naked. It was the first time they had been together and he did not feel dirty afterward. His eyes were heavy and he felt the post-coital lethargy hit him. She had been marvelous and he wondered what they hell they did.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna was in Soul Society and she was in disbelief at the damage wrought to Juria. It had taken everything Unohana Retsu had in her to save the Tengu. Asuna had sent Kizaki to Yamasaki General to get Nobu and he was now there assisting the shinigami healer.

 

“I have never in four centuries seen her ill.” Nobu said shocked.

 

“This poison is insidious. Lady Asuna the Head Captain wishes to see you.” Unohana said as she worked.

 

“Hai.” She nodded as she stood.

 

She knew Maec's handiwork but she wondered how in the hell he had gotten into Soul Society. No Tomoshibi would have aided him and ceratianly no shinigami she knew of. She ported over to the Teruyoshi's offices and she was shown in by his lieutenant. She sat down across from him and he was in old man guise. She really did not care at the moment and she was shell shocked.

 

“It has come to my attention that we may have a Shouten in the Rukongai.” He stated flatly.

 

“Maec.” She said flatly.

 

“Hai. This is unacceptable Asuna. Hibari is one exception because she is good but I will not tolerate those creatures running around my realm!” He thundered.

 

“You think I just let him waltz in here Teru?” Asuna asked.

 

“I think you and Juria are pains in my ass!” Teru hissed.

 

She stood up and leaned over his desk and slapped him. Her mind had been working and she had been informed only minutes before that Grimmjow had been worked over in Los Noches and brought to Yamasaki General by none other then Ulquiorra himself.

 

“I am certain Aizen let Maec into Soul Society you pompous idiot. How is that my problem? You are the one that cannot beat him.” She growled.

 

“You have got to be kidding. A Shouten asking a shinigami for help?” He asked stunned.

 

“Why not? Juria was here and he wanted to get to her. Kaimei had injured him pretty badly and he would want revenge.” Asuna said reasonably.

 

“You have to expel him Asuna! You are one of the few who has enough power to face that creature.” He ordered.

 

“You do not?” She demanded of him.

 

“It seems I am going to have to help defeat Aizen personally so NO!” He snapped.

 

She grit her teeth and she ported out of his office. She closed her eyes and she could feel Maec distantly somewhere in Soul Society. She pulled on her bond with Kaito and he appeared. He looked around and a smirk graced his features.

 

“Hello. Can I help you?” He asked smiling.

 

“Kaimei is angry with me.” She said sighing.

 

“He is an asshole. What else is new?” Kaito asked snorting.

 

“Please Kaito, PLEASE!” Asuna growled.

 

“Okay fine. What do you need?” He asked.

 

“Juria was hurt by Maec. She will recover but it will take time. Maec is here but I need back up.” She said plainly.

 

“A Shouten here?” He asked stunned.

 

“Hai. Now I will go to expel him but I cannot just port out of Soul Society like I can Hueco Mundo.” She said flatly.

 

“So you need me to do it. Gotcha.” Kaito nodded.

 

Asuna closed her eyes again and she could feel Maec again. She ported near him and she found him leaning against a lush tree. His dark eyes opened and he stared at her with a smirk on his handsome visage.

 

“Well you found me. I am not surprised really, how many Shouten auras can there be?” Maec smirked.

 

“You hurt her!” Asuna said hatefully.

 

“Yes, I did. She did not die I take it. Fuck! I will have to try again.” He said circling her.

 

“You loved her at one time.” She said in fury.

 

“I thought I loved her. I was in lust with her. I love you.” He said in disgust.

 

“You are incapable.” She snapped with a reverberating growl.

 

“You tell me how I feel now? Shall I tell how I feel Isha? It is like a gaping fucking wound that you inflict with your toxin. That is what it feels like.” Maec stated with his eyes starting to change.

 

She threw up a barrier around them and he looked around curious. She neared him and she was so damn angry she could have spit on him.

 

“What did you take from me Maec?” She growled out.

 

“I told you nothing. Open your ears idiot.” He snapped.

 

“You lie! You are a bastard and a liar!” Asuna screamed.

 

Maec slammed her against a tree and she winced in pain. He grabbed her jaw and he was in a foul mood. He invaded her mouth and she snarled in fury. She also was addicted to him and she absolutely hated herself for it. He was so damn angry at Kaimei and Sana at the moment for their taking the one thing he wanted even more then this woman; he decided to be wicked. He split her skirt and she shoved him back.

 

“No! You will not touch me anymore.” She growled.

 

“You desire my touch. You hate yourself for it as much I hate myself but you want me as much as I want you.” Maec yelled as he phased her clothes off.

 

She slashed his face with her claws and it was laced with Dakkasou. He hissed in anger and belted her across the face. She landed on her backside and the sight of her pregnant belly made him crazed.

 

“I will kill him. Do you hear me? I will kill Hasegawa Kaimei and then I will kill your halfling but not before I take their babes from them. How would they like that you think?” He asked suddenly right next to her.

 

She went to strike again and he lowered his head and suckled her brutally. She yelped and he practically purred against her plush breast. He lifted his head and his eyes were silver.

 

“I hate you!” Asuna growled.

 

“Yes darling so you said. Yes, I shall be cruel.” He said suddenly slipping two fingers into her center.

 

She would have groaned if he had not phased his fingers through her cervix. The next thing she knew she felt her water leaking. Asuna looked at him and he smirked with such malice that she grew fearful.

 

“Again all I have to do is threaten your children. So be it. They may survive. They may not. Oh well.” He said in cruelty.

 

Her barrier dropped and he just laughed and laughed. He phased away and she just sat there. Kaito phased in and he gasped at her state of undress.

 

“Please phase me something to wear.” She said trying to keep her voice from cracking.

 

“What is wrong? Asuna? What is it?” He asked phasing a kimono.

 

“He pierced my bag of waters.” She said as tears threatened to erupt.

 

Kaito's face showed his dismay and he phased them back to Squad Four. He yelled for Nobu and her kumo mate immediately came over. She pathed to him and he was shocked at Maec's brutality.

 

“Calm down. You are far enough along that they would have a good chance Asuna.” He said softly.

 

“Nobu are they coming now? Will I have to have them now?” She asked terrified.

 

“I am sorry my love but most likely hai. We can try to give you another week or two but it may be that you have to be on antibiotics.” Nobu said brushing her hair out of her face.

 

Tears fell freely and she was piecing together his anger and it began to dawn on her his anger of Kaimei.

 

“His anger is beyond normal. I know he took something from me but his fury at Kaimei is absolute. His fury with Juria is also beyond the norm. He attacked these babes Nobu.” She reasoned as she wiped away the tears.

 

“You think he went to the past and he got you pregnant?” He asked shocked.

 

“Hai. I think he did and I think I did not know any better. I think that is why I find him somewhat tolerable. I think the bastard tricked me. I think he either stole my baby or Juria and Kaimei killed my babe.” She said shaking.

 

“Oh Kamis.” Nobu said in total shock as he held her.

 

“Someone killed or took my child and I will know who! Kamis Nobu I feel a contraction.” She said in pain.

 

“Shit! Okay Asuna. You need to be in the in between. Kaito!” Nobu called.

 

“Hai?” He said phasing in right beside them.

 

“Phase us to the living plane and Asuna can get us to the in between.” He commanded.

 

“Kaito please call on Kurosaki Ichigo.” She said wincing.

 

“Why Ichigo?” Nobu asked surprised.

 

“Because he is one of the strongest shinigami I know. Maec would have a time against him and Zangetsu.” She said closing her eyes and tears fell.

 

“Okay.” Kaito nodded.

 

He phased Nobu and Asuna into the living plane and Asuna ported them to Britain. Nobu laid her back on Lei's bed as he opened her widely to check on her.

 

“You are not open yet. I can give you magnesium sulfate to stop the contractions and antibiotics. You are going to have to stay in bed.” He said softly.

 

She nodded and he left for a few minutes to find Jao and supplies. She kept in her sobs for a few minutes and wondered what the hell happened in the past.

Kaito appeared in the place called Karakura Town and Asuna had said search out two reiastu. Two very distinct and powerful reiastu. It was easy enough to find the orange haired boy. He was in a small clinic with a hanyou boy of his own. Kaito appeared and Ichigo looked up surprised. Hinata recognized Kaito and waved.

 

“Hello?” He asked surprised.

 

“I am Kaito. Lady Asuna has asked that you come into Soul Society.” He said.

 

“Asuna? What the hell's Asuna doin in Soul Society?” Ichigo asked pushing Hinata towards his sisters.

 

“Hey! Chichi!” He growled.

 

“Go now!” He commanded.

 

The little hanyou pouted and Kaito recognized Asuna's looks in the boy. He suppressed his smile and Ichigo became his shinigami self. It always unnerved him how the death kami did what they did.

 

“Well I guess let's go.” He shrugged.

 

“She also asked for me to get someone named Muguruma.” Kaito stated.

 

“He's a fucking Vizard. I'm gonna go into Soul Society and you can find the asshole.” Ichigo said snorting.

 

Kaito shrugged and he had plucked the image of a warehouse from the boy's head. He phased near the large metal structure and knocked on the door. He did not wait long and the silver haired Vizard answered himself. He cocked his head to the side to see a Tomoshibi standing there.

 

“What do you want wraith?” Kensei asked gruffly.

 

“Asuna sent me. She was injured in a battle with Maec tr'Awnhi.” He said quickly.

 

“What? She okay?” He asked quickly.

 

“Hai and no. She asked that you come into Soul Society and try to get Maec the hell out.” He explained.

 

“Yeah sure. As long as I don't have to deal with the Gotei Thirteen.” Kensei shrugged.

 

Kaito shrugged and he grabbed the elbow of the Vizard. He phased them into the Rukongai and Kensei nodded his thanks. He was suddenly gone when Kaito felt Kaimei behind him. He let a deep breath and turned around. This was the younger version of his brother running around and he cocked a blonde brow.

 

“What?” He demanded.

 

“Where is she?” Kaimei demanded.

 

“Being taken care of you arrogant prick. Maec got a hold of her.” Kaito snorted.

 

“I heard Maec was here. I will find him.” He said growling.

 

“Asuna asked two powerful shinigami. You are not needed Asswipe.” The younger Tomoshibi said with a curled lip.

 

“You are a worthless cur little brother who has no regard for authority or tradition!” Kaimei growled.

 

“Oh what you do? You let her think you were me? I raised Hikari dumb ass. She still thinks of you as Uncle Kaimei. You may have sired her but she is my daughter.” Kaito taunted.

 

Rage filled his elder brother and he punched Kaito squarely in the face. Blood erupted from his nose and Kaito stared at Kaimei. He in turn punched him in return and the elder brother's nose made a cracking sound.

 

“You had no right to touch her! You had no right to shield her when you found out Kaito!” Kaimei snarled.

 

“Oh bother big brother. It pisses you off that I paid attention. Grow up! You were so busy playing king of the mountain that I ventured out away from the nest so to speak. It pisses you off that you did follow authority and tradition. See this whole thing tells me Kaimei that you really wanted to be me but felt like you lived in the shadow Hasegawa Zhang!” He said with barely restrained glee.

 

Kaimei face held so much rage that it seemed true what his baby brother was saying. Kaito back stepped and bowed before him before phasing out. He was the past Kaimei and the knowledge that the baby girl he fathered with her was still raised by Kaito made him sick. He had seen her and he had no clue how she could be mistaken for Kaito's progeny. She looked exactly like Kazaki albeit with darker blonde hair. She also curled her lip at him and would not speak to him. It was confusing as hell and now his younger brother was errand boy for his lover. If Maec got wind of the lies that Juria and he were spinning; the Shouten ruler would let loose all kinds of hell.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Maec was still feeling overwhelmed in his anger and hatred. He was not so stupid as to show in the middle of the place known as the Seireitei but he knew he was being tracked. His malicious smirk was almost frightening in its intensity as he was amongst some ruins.

 

“What are you doing here?” He heard behind him.

 

“I could ask you the same thing. Why are you here?” Maec demanded turning around.

 

His proud, powerful, and arrogant half Arrancar child stood before him and the cold amber eyes stared at him.

 

“You saw my child and could not kill her?” Arturo demanded.

 

“Much to your disappointment boy but I do have certain standards.” He said rolling his eyes.

 

“Because she has your putrid blood in her veins? She is nothing to you and I swear to all that if you ever step foot near her again it will be the last thing you do!” The powerful Vasto Lordes stated with a nasty tone.

 

“You threaten me? Are you insane my boy? I put Hanaj into coma because he dared go against me.” Maec said as his eyes changed.

 

“You harmed your golden boy? None of them know he is like me do they?” He said actually growling.

 

“Hanaj's birth is of no consequence to you or his siblings! I raised him and he was mine. Those fucking Jings corrupted his mind.” The wraith ruler said with malice.

 

“Did Sanra kill his mother too?” Arturo asked curling his lip.

 

“I killed his mother. That bitch attempted to keep me from him. I ripped him from her womb.” Maec said with narrowed eyes.

 

“So how many of us are there? How many bastards that is?” His Arrancar son demanded.

 

“None of your business. Your mother was a lovely creature and I mourned her passing.” Maec said turning away from him.

 

Arturo snarled and he went to attack. Maec caught his hand in a powerful grip and son stared at father.

 

“She was nothing but your plaything! You never loved her.” Arturo snarled.

 

“I do not love boy. I possess and yes, I possessed Caridad Plateado. She was mine and I would have protected her but yes, Sanra had a fit.” He said in anger.

 

“Your attentions brought about her death.” His son said in hatred.

 

“Leave. I have no wish to hurt you but I will.” Maec stated.

 

“The same way you wish to possess Hibari's mother?” Arturo eyes flashed as he stared at Maec.

 

“You know nothing Arturo! Leave my boy before you get hurt.” He said getting angry.

 

“What the fuck is a hollow doin here and a mother fucking Shouten?” Both heard from further away.

 

Maec and Arturo looked over at an orange haired shinigami with a really big zanpakuto. Maec again rolled his eyes and his son was agitated.

 

“You want to put him in his place or shall I?” The wraith king asked.

 

“Oh let me.” Arturo snapped.

 

Maec smirked and stepped aside as his child stepped forward to stand before the shinigami.

 

“Who the hell are you?” Ichigo demanded.

 

“Foolish shinigami. I am your death. Begone!” Arturo stated as his reiastu flared.

 

Maec chuckled as he watched the energy wings appear on Arturo's back. It made his day to watch his powerful progeny fight. It always made him proud when they smote their enemies. The shinigami brat pulled his huge weapon and came at Arturo. His child deflected and blew the young shinigami back several times with projectiles.

 

“What the hell? Pull your blade asshole!” Ichigo swore.

 

“You wish for death so soon?” Arturo taunted.

 

Maec watched and he actually cupped his chin as he watched them go at it. He heard the brat yell “bankai” and his appearance changed some and his weapon became more concentrated. Maec yawned and he turned to see another being.

 

“Now what do we have here?” He asked smirking.

 

“Yeah you're the asshole I'm looking for.” Kensei stated clenching his fists.

 

“You plan to take me with your fists? Oh how trite. Go away before I kill you.” He said sneering.

 

Kensei smirked and put his fist in his palm. He muttered “futtobase”. A huge blast of energy and wind struck Maec full force. The wraith ruler was thrown with such force that he felt his arm shatter. He stared at what he assumed was a shinigami and he snarled.

 

“You are like her!” He hissed.

 

“You mean Suna? Yeah, she and I are real good buds. She asked me to kick your ass.” Kensei said stalking towards him.

 

“Did she now? She asked you to kick my ass? Well little man it seems it will be me doing the kicking.” He said hissing.

 

Maec's arm hung limply and with his right arm he made a sweeping motion. A huge wave of kemuri ash came at Kensei and the cloud was slashed into by invisible air blades that the Vizard wielded effortlessly. Maec realized this was not a regular being at all. He also realized that if this man and Asuna were to get together then the child of two air elemental would be deadly indeed. Maec realized he needed to kill this being as soon as possible. The Shouten ruler began to release wave of kemuri and hiebie as he attempted get in close to Kensei. He managed to get up and close as the former shinigami captain began to release blast after blast. He reached out with his right hand to grab Kensei's throat. Kensei snarled as pain registered in his brain. The wraith was actually burning him with his touch. He managed to bring down his fist with incredible strength and break Maec's hold. He whirled around fast and caught him in the stomach with an elbow. The Shouten king was staggering in his strength and speed as he had underestimated him. He phased out quickly several times and gauged his injuries. There was no way he could win this battle and he noticed Arturo was doing quite nicely.

 

-You want answers my child then come ask them. Your daughter was never in danger from me but her mother is. - He pathed to his son.

 

Arturo never acknowledged him and he phased out. The orange haired shinigami had his own surprises and he was bleeding in several places. He stepped back and used sonido to go. Kensei and Ichigo stared at each other in annoyance and Kensei had the impression of a hand on his neck and a nasty burn.

 

“You got the easy one kid.” Kensei mumbled.

 

“Screw you old man.” Ichigo snorted.

 

Kensei was gone and Ichigo was surprised. They had managed to drive them out for now but there seemed to be real problems when an Arrancar and Shouten showed up together in Soul Society.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Maec walked into Balkhash and he realized his grandson was gone yet again. He grew furious and his chest was heaving. He saw a beautiful Shouten woman hanging around the court and he narrowed his eyes. She had blue eyes which was unusual in the Shouten gene pool.

 

“Who are you?” He demanded.

 

“I am Anazel tr'Awnhi my king. I know that the woman who killed Lady Sanra is here.” She said in a nasty tone.

 

“You are Mas's woman.” Maec realized.

 

“I was. His turned has apparently changed him and loyalty to his kind is no longer needed.” Anazel said with hate.

 

“She has the balls to show up here hmm? Well then I shall deal with her.” Maec snarled.

 

 

His arm was still hurting but if the nasty little tart was here then he would deal with her. He threw open Mas's door and Hibari was in his arms. She used telekinesis and threw Maec hard into a wall. He snarled in fury and Mas shoved her away.

 

“Go!” He yelled.

 

“Not without you!” She said grabbing him.

 

Maec was in front of her and Mas as a nasty smile appeared on Hibari's face. She put up her hands and then sliced outward with her fingers. Blood erupted from numerous tiny wounds on Maec. He grunted and stared at the nasty whore. Hibari grabbed his next to eldest and Mas looked conflicted.

 

“You go then never return! I will kill you myself!” Maec roared.

 

“Then I suppose I am no longer welcome.” His boy said phasing out with Hibari.

 

Maec screamed in fury as he realized that the succubus bitch had infected his son.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Mas's chest was heaving and he realized what he had just done. He had chosen his lover over his family. Hibari was dressing and they were in an apartment in Tokyo.

 

“Your emotions are all over the board Mas. What is wrong?” She asked.

 

“He is my father!” He cried.

 

“He just said he would kill you.” Hibari said pulling on clothes.

 

“But I am in bed with you. You are supposed to be my enemy.” Mas said shaking.

 

“You were a good boy growing up. Never questioned the norms and did as you were told. You faded into the shadows so to speak and he just ignored you, correct?” She asked in a temper.

 

“Pretty much.” He stated staring at the wall.

 

“Fuck him and fuck that. Sorry but you are in my head.” She said nearing him.

 

“We feel something false. This is not normal and this is not about feeling Hibari. This is physical and hormones. Good Gods you are something but when do you tire of your Shouten creator?” He demanded.

 

“Be careful big brother as she has a tendency to lay waste to hearts.” Mas heard from the shadows of the hall.

 

“Arturo! What the hell are you doing here?” Hibari growled.

 

“I will see my daughter Hibari.” He said in fury.

 

“You and Arturo have a child?” Mas asked stunned.

 

“He decided my aura tasted good then he decided he wanted to get laid. I got pregnant with Reia and I ran. I did not want to live this fucking life. Then wonderful Aunt Sanra comes along. Your idiot father decided I would make a good Shouten. Well this little onna fought back!” She growled.

 

Mas felt like a bigger idiot. He was one of the few who knew of Arturo as even Raganos did not know of their half Arrancar sibling. Maec had interesting tastes in lovers and some of the children had been shocked at their sire's antics. Mas had been very not surprised.

 

“Hibari please do not get all angry yet again.” He said sighing.

 

“You turned her?” Arturo demanded.

 

“I was told too. I had no idea who she was.” Mas stated.

 

Arturo stalked over and punched his brother in the face. Their features were similar but their coloring was completely different. Hibari came between them and held Arturo back with her will.

 

“Reia is not here so you can go so buh bye!” She snapped.

 

Arturo turned his elegant head towards her and he was up and on her in a second. Her belly was a little bigger then before and he stared hard at her.

 

“You lie when it suits you Hibari. You wish to be fully what you are?” He asked in a dark tone.

 

“Get off of me.” She snarled.

 

Mas got his senses and Arturo yelled in a language Hibari did not know. Her lover did not make another move and Arturo's hands wrapped around her neck.

 

“What did you tell him?” She gasped.

 

“I said he moved then I kill you. I intend to do it anyway.” He said with gritted teeth.

 

Hibari tried to break his solid grip and he actually strangled her into unconsciousness. Arturo stood up and stared at his elder brother.

 

“She has the unique ability of luring those to her. I am unsure of her status now but you are in a trap. Escape now.” His half hollow sibling stated.

 

“I have not a clue. You did not kill her?” Mas asked.

 

“No. I should have for her taking my daughter but she will hunt me down to the ends of the earth. Our sire will try and take her out I am sure of it.” He said in disgust.

 

“Well she is not exactly a weak opponent.” His brother said.

 

“No. She never was. I realized it years ago but Maec having you turn her was the dumbest thing he could have done.” Arturo snorted.

 

“We had no idea. She was never an issue before to the tr'Awnhi.” Mas said almost embarrassed.

 

“Well our sire just did not think this one through.” He said picking her up and laying her on the bed.

 

Mas was upset and he felt like an idiot. He had told off the most powerful Shouten he knew and his lover had just been strangled by an illegimate brother. His day had gone from bad to fucking bizarre.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

It was going badly and Asuna was in agony. She twisted on the bed and she could feel their tiny auras. Nobu and Jao were trying to get her some relief and Jao suspected that Maec had leaked his toxin.

 

“We have to operate.” Nobu said under his breath.

 

“I have no idea what to do here sir. Nanami is in surgery and Shinobu as well.” Jao said worried.

 

“Do you seriously think that bastard intended to harm her this badly?” The kumo healer asked.

 

“I wish I knew. Lei and Yhea are about ready to fall apart. Where is the halfling?” His son in law asked.

 

“I sent him to Sendai. Naraku gets homicidal.” Nobu stated.

 

His son in law looked over at Asuna as she breathed in and it was obvious she was bearing down. Nobu cussed and he went to see. She was groaning in pain as she scrunched up her face. Lei and Yhea both burst in and blood could be scented. She began to hypervenelate as she pushed out a tiny youkai. It was obvious the babe was dead and Asuna had to be held by Lei and Yhea as she began screaming. Nobu was shaking but the tiny girl was too small and fragile. Naraku was on the other side of the room and his eyes did not look normal. Nobu wrapped up the tiny female and brought her to her father. She barely fit in both hands and he held her to his chest as he watched Asuna fall to pieces. He had felt her agony and had appeared when she had birthed his daughter dead. He could say nothing and he just sat down with her. They had never lost a babe in child birth and he did not know how to handle the grief.

 

“Asuna? Listen to me.” Nobu commanded.

 

Asuna stared at him with red eyes that seemed without life or luster.

 

“Can you do this? I wish we could give you a break but it is now.” He continued.

 

“I have no energy. I hurt. Please try to save them. Please.” She said hanging her head.

 

He nodded and he laid her back. He gave her a quick shot of medicine in her IV and Jao handed him a scalpel. Yhea turned his head and he grew sick to his stomach. Nobu had not done this for awhile but he cut into her old delivery scar and he worked fast. He prayed he could save the two Shouten babes because it would make this worse. He reached the two tiny wraiths quickly and he pulled out a female first and he immediately handed her to Jao. He took her to a table and he phased out with her. There was another Shouten healer there and Yhea had the sickening feeling it was to take the babes to Yamasaki General. His baby was pulled out and his son let out a tiny noise. Nobu stared at the black haired infant and his eyes were still closed. His aura was stronger then the girls had been and he handed him to the female healer who phased out as well. Yhea looked at Nobu who nodded and Asuna was barely awake.

 

“Naraku.” She whispered.

 

“Hai.” He said hoarsely.

 

“Forgive me.” Asuna whimpered.

 

“Nothing to forgive. She is beautiful and at peace.” Naraku said with utter coldness.

 

Yhea had to blink back tears and Lei was gone. Naraku too was gone and Asuna lay there as if someone had put a crushing weight on her chest. Once it had began it had happened quickly and now she felt so empty. In the back of her mind she knew Maec had one a major personal victory and she was falling to pieces. She allowed herself to break down and begin sobbing.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Nobu was at the hospital and Nanami had both the Shouten babes stabilized and they were doing okay. Naraku was nowhere to be found and Ishin had called to tell him that he had found a fresh grave with a marker on it that simply said “enzerubebi”. Nobu had wept and it was evident that Ishin had been too; Naraku had not named his daughter and simply had called her an angel babe. Nobu had Asuna sedated to deal with it. She was in a severe depression and he was unable to pull her from it. Nanami came in and she sat down. He slid a key across his desk and she nodded to him. He pretended not to know his children would raid the blood bank and they would discreetly say nothing. They heard a commotion and Nanami was there first. Hiroto was there covered in blood and his normally amber eyes were red. Hibari was in his arms and she had strangulation ligatures on her neck.

 

“Hiroto?” Nobu asked surprised.

 

“Hello. I am sorry sir. I found that Arrancar there and I lost my head. If he lives then he will be damn near dead.” He said shaking in anger.

 

“Good Kamis she is damn near dead.” Nanami cussed.

 

“Her babes. Please. She wants those babes.” He said in a begging tone.

 

They nodded and Nobu refused for another member of the family to loose another child. Nanami rolled Hibari away and Hiroto looked concerned but he ported out. He wanted to see if the Arrancar had survived. He had used an immensely powerful attack on him but he had deflected his own power back to him with an unusually powerful deflection of yoki. He found the Shouten with black hair unconscious but the Arrancar was gone. Blood covered the floor and he knelt near the Shouten. He shook him awake forcefully and Mas slowly woke up. The power this daemon showed was immense and he met his amber eyes.

 

“How do you know my sister?” He demanded.

 

“I turned her and she has taken me as a lover.” He said in truth.

 

“Has she? Well her old lover tried to kill her.” Hiroto said in anger.

 

“He is my half brother. He does not like being separated from his daughter.” Mas stated trying to stand.

 

His leg was broken and Hiroto looked around. He felt Kaz and his identical twin ported in. He looked around at all the blood and he snorted.

 

“Looks like a damn battle went down. Awe look a fucking Shouten. Hibari been playing?” Hiroto asked his brother.

 

“She has been protecting him it seems. Meet her maker.” He said standing.

 

“Oh you are the fucker that turned our baby sister.” Kazuo growled in a temper.

 

“Watch it dog daemon!” Mas said baring his fangs.

 

“Hibari is at the hospital and I took out the Arrancar. If lil sister is sheltering you then we need to take you to the Jings.” Kaz said in disdain.

 

“Hai.” Hiroto agreed.

 

Kaz dragged up Mas and ported with him. Hiroto still looked around and his gut twisted. Things were bad and he could tell they were going to get worse. Something was off and something was way wrong.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Maec was in bed and Aidoann had splinted his arm and given him powerful pain medicines. He was in a very drowsy state and extremely high. He had requested information from his ally in Los Noches and Aizen had delivered. His eyes were heavy and the many parchments were lying on his huge bed. He felt a knee suddenly in his chest and he rasped. Asuna was over him and she was wild looking.

 

“What are you doing here?” He asked thickly.

 

“I can only think that you caused me to loose more then one babe. Where is ours Maec?” She asked in a nasty and dangerous voice.

 

“We have no babe idiot. Kaimei killed it. Go away.” Maec stated in hatred and anger.

 

“You killed one of my daughters!” Asuna shrieked tackling him.

 

“So? Your fuck buddy Kaimei killed my son. Fair is fair!” He said slapping her.

 

“She was not Kaimei's!” Asuna said beginning to weep.

 

“Oh yes that is right. She belonged to who the halfling or another Shouten? No matter really as they all are guilty of something. They must have wiped your memory. Get the hell out of here before I hurt you again!” He said shoving her off of his bed.

 

Her head slammed the ground and she was seeing stars. Naraku was gone for the moment and he could not handle the pain and she was not handling it either. Maec was making angry sounds and she turned her head.

 

“You do not remember anything do you?” He said in a rage.

 

“No.” She whispered.

 

“You do not remember me telling you how to kill Sanra's twin?” Maec stated kneeling near her.

 

“No.” She said refusing to look at him.

 

“I see. They have done well. I did not kill Sana and I need to. She interfered and so did that Tomoshibi filth. I have no clue what happened to our son. For once there was no motive. For once there was nothing but what I wanted for you and you responded. You responded as you and not a previous incarnation. You gave yourself so sweetly too. Now you are a simpering, weepy bitch! You let them kill your child. You let them kill an innocent.” He stated with contempt.

 

“I would not have let them harm my pup no matter if I hated you or not!” Asuna yelled.

 

“But that is what you obviously did.” Maec stated still kneeling.

 

“I tell you I did not! You think you know me so well!” She said grabbing his shoulder.

 

“Then where is he? Where is our son?” He said shoving her back.

 

“You killed one of my daughters!” Asuna said jumping him.

 

They rolled and he made a grunt as his arm hurt. He stared down at her and she was struggling to keep it together.

 

“I want my son. I will see to it she somehow is restored.” He said in a heavy tone.

 

“So this is the price? He is mine as well. You think I will let you have him?” She said in shrill tone.

 

“I think you wish this dead girl. What is my son to you but another Shouten.” He said coldly.

 

“I did not do this Maec. I did not take or kill him. Yet you punished me for their actions.” Asuna whimpered a little.

 

His face clouded and that was what he had done. He snarled and he hated how he felt around her. He cupped her chin and she saw actual an actual bloody sheen to his eyes.

 

“You really wanted him.” She whispered.

 

“Oh yes I did. I wanted him. It is the only time you and I have that is memorable and actually shall I say it? It was enjoyable and I shall remember it. So yes, I want my son and I will kill and murder anyone and anything to get him.” Maec stated.

 

Asuna stared at his face and she was still reeling over the births. She had a brief flash and she reached for his piercing on his nipple. His face twisted as she yanked it a little.

 

“Stop! I do not want you. I want to hate you.” He hissed.

 

She did it again and it made him hiss more. She yanked him down and their mouths collided. He opened his lips and it was so damn odd what they were doing but he should not have been surprised. The kiss was heady and passionate as she devoured him. It was her and she was demanding with her being. Maec ripped his mouth away and he was rasping.

 

“I cannot take this. I am going mad and we both know it.” He said shaking.

 

“I still hate you.” She said as tears fell freely.

 

“Of course.” Maec snapped.

 

He managed to get off of her and Asuna was sitting there.

 

“You can leave you know.” He growled.

 

“Our son is still gone and so is my baby. My other two fight for their life now. Yhea told me a secret and I think I know some of it. He said you had lovers besides your wives. Hanaj has silver eyes and none of your other children do except for Nveid. They did not belong to your wives.” She said in a conspiring tone.

 

“So you are a smart one, so?” He asked staring at her.

 

“These females that caught your interest, did you love them?” Asuna demanded.

 

“I do not love remember? You said so yourself.” Maec retorted

 

“Answer me Maec!” She stated in her shrill tone.

 

“I was more then fond of them. Love? I do not think so. I most certainly preferred them to Sanra.” He said thoughtfully.

 

“But Hanaj and Nveid you seem to have treated better then your other children. Thei was?” She demanded.

 

“A daughter from my first wife. Leave.” He said standing.

 

Asuna stood up and she grabbed his injured arm and twisted it till it cracked again. He yelled in pain and she twisted harder and her face was contorted in such terrible pain and rage.

 

“You do not dismiss me Maec. I am royalty the same as you several times over and you owe me. Does it hurt? Shall I make it feel like the gaping wound I feel?” She snarled in his ear.

 

“You would make a lovely Shouten my dear.” He retorted.

 

Asuna twisted harder and it snapped again. He was in agony from the compound fracture and she shoved him onto his bed. She grabbed the parchments he was reading and she stared at him in fury.

 

“You wish to know of Muguruma Kensei?” She demanded.

 

“Yes.” He snarled.

 

“So you faced my friend. Well you should face us together. We would decimate you.” She said coldly.

 

“He has some interesting power but then it seems this shinigami Aizen experimented on him.” He said smirking.

 

She lost her mind and punched his gut with her claws he managed phase out and she fell on the bed. She brought her foot up and it connected with his groin and he was wracked in hurt all over. Maec pinned her down and she narrowed her eyes and blood ran from his nose. She was so intent upon rupturing blood vessels in his head and she let her yoki flow into her left hand. She pressed her fingers to his chest and he began convulsing. She stared down in horror and she had let the electric yoki go. He was unconscious and it would be so easy to kill him but it would not find this lost child or at least what happened to him. Asuna turned her head and she choked on a sob and she got up. She ported out and she fell to her knees by the grave marker; she lay beside it and begged forgiveness.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Maec woke up and his arm had been re-repaired and he was hooked up to what he knew as an IV. Aidoann looked sad and he met her eyes.

 

“She has very powerful energies.” She commented.

 

“Yes it seems. Damn she gave me a jolt. I had not expected such a strong one.” He muttered.

 

“My king your son Raganos bid me tell you that the wyvern ruler was here. He wishes to communicate with you.” Aidoann stated.

 

“Fucking lizard can wait.” Maec snapped.

 

“Yes sir.” She said bowing.

 

“Could you figure out how to detox a son of mine?” He demanded.

 

“From who?” She asked.

 

“A succubus.” He growled.

 

“Yes my king.” Aidoann nodded.

 

“Good girl.” Maec said calming.

 

Aidoann nodded and she slipped away. Raganos came in and Maec pinned him with a nasty look. He shrugged and Drostan appeared as well. Maec's eyes took on a silver hue and Raganos spoke quickly.

 

“Make it quick lizard. I am unwell.” Maec snarled.

 

“This little alliance is getting me nowhere wraith. Our kind can go back to being adversaries or we can face these demons down.” He said crossing his arms.

 

“Oh what you have not gotten your tiny little pussy yet?” He asked curling his lips in hatred.

 

“She disappears into history and I have no clue what happened. She carried my child Shouten.” Drostan growled fiercely.

 

“Pardon me?” Maec asked surprised.

 

“Yes. That got your attention.” He said crossing his arms.

 

Maec wondered if Sana had interfered there too. She was a Tengu and he was trying to remember the blasted hierarchy of the Japanese demi-gods.

 

“Raganos, this Akemi would be protected by this Juria as well, correct?” He demanded.

 

“Yes sir. The rumor is also that a dragon demi-god protects the family.” His eldest said.

 

Maec stared at Drostan and the pale blue eyes stared at him coldly.

 

“The dragon you speak of is called Tianlong. I used to think he was only a myth to the Asian dragons but I have since learned that he is indeed quite real.” Drostan stated.

 

“Seems this Soul Society has all manner of demi-gods. Well Drostan. You and I have the same problem. Raganos leave us.” He thundered.

 

Drostan looked around and found a splendid gold gilded chair that was covered in a tapestry. He sat and leaned forward.

 

“You said we have the same problem.” He said smoothly.

 

“Yes lizard. You adore her cousin and this Akemi's cousin is the evolved soul of the one woman I want.” He said flatly.

 

“Enough for a war?” The wyvern ruler said making himself comfortable.

 

“It is not just about the female. It is about possessing one of the greatest powers that my kind has ever developed. This Akemi woman must be something more too but they are shielding them for a major reason. They took my son who was from Asuna's body and they will suffer. They just hid her away which leads me to believe your child is lost to time.” Maec said considering.

 

“So what are you saying wraith?” Drostan snarled.

 

“Nothing can be done here. It is all a stalemate. I am not from this era and it would be easier for me to be in my home era. This is a waste of my time and yours. They too have figured that out.” He considered.

 

“So you say.” Drostan said waving his hand in the air.

 

“You lizards are such pussy bitches.” Maec said growling.

 

Drostan raised a brow at Maec and both men were hateful and distrustful of the other species.

 

“We lizards have been on this rock for eons since the old ones idiot.” Drostan said rising.

 

“Well Empusae, Shouten, and Ekimmu have been on this rock as you say just as long or longer fool. Your stench is offensive leave.” The Shouten king said screwing up his face.

 

“I have a stench? You are rich Shouten. I like what we corporeals call you; you over winded gas bag.” He laughed as he walked by.

 

“What happened to your wings lizard?” Maec asked in curiosity.

 

“It is the modern era. You have your magics and we have ours. Your bed looks lonely Shouten. Enjoy your fist this fine eve.” Drostan chuckled in his heavy British accent.

 

Maec was up instantly and Drostan was pressed against the door by incredible strength. The lithe form of the Shouten king was deceiving. His hair was down and it was layered but his chest was bare. His subtle claws dug into Drostan's neck and he breathed very heavily along his neck.

 

“I am very hungry and my imbecile son made this alliance. It benefits me so I allow it. Do not mistake me for a moment scale boy but I am stronger and much older then you.” He growled softly.

 

Maec ran a claw of his thumb along a prominent artery in Drostan's neck and the wyvern ruler was actually nervous.

 

“You see all I have to do is split this open and place a goblet underneath and there is my dinner. Now watch your words or I will do as I say.” He said with silver orbs glowing.

 

“Yes.” Drostan stated gulping.

 

“Now get the fuck out of my room.” Maec said backing up.

 

Drostan shifted away and he knew the corporeal must have a way into Hueco Mundo. He wanted food and he wanted to at least gaze on her. He felt her distantly and he appeared near her. She was sleeping next to a tiny gravestone and he read the Japanese kanji. He kept in his deep sigh and he picked her up. She was asleep deeply and he phased them both back into his room. He laid her on his bed and he went to his sideboard to pour a generous amount of wine. He drained it slowly and when he turned she was awake and staring at him.

 

“You are awake I see.” He said trying to be a bastard.

 

She said nothing and he neared the bed. She only stared at him and he found it unnerving. He leaned down and his mouth met hers. He had no intentions of being tender but she threaded her hands through his hair. Maec leaned his lean body against hers. Asuna allowed the kiss to get passionate but she extended her hand and suddenly brought the tip of Konkisaiga to his throat. Maec slowly pulled back from her mouth with a smirk on his face.

 

“Shall I pull my sword too?” He asked in a nasty tone.

 

“I cannot forgive you.” She whispered with a searing hatred.

 

“You cannot forgive me? Oh bother. You need your baby that bad?” Maec demanded.

 

“You bastard!” Asuna seethed.

 

“I was not really caring. My own child had been killed or so I had been told.” He said running fingers along her blade.

 

She watched him as he cut his own hand and he brought his appendages to her mouth.

 

“I will fix my little temper tantrum and you do something for me.” He purred.

 

“How do you fix your temper tantrum?” She demanded.

 

“You let me worry about that my sweet Isha. You want that baby alive and I will see to it.” Maec stated smearing his blood on her lips.

 

He saw burning hatred and raw lust in her eyes and it made him almost weak in his knees.

 

“Who is Hanaj's mother?” She demanded.

 

“Does it matter?” He asked irritated.

 

“I want to know. What did you do to him?” Asuna demanded.

 

“I forced him into a deep death sleep. He cannot thwart me if he is not awake now can he?” He demanded in return.

 

“So you put him into a long coma so you could wreak havoc?” She hissed.

 

“I did it so he would not get hurt. Shut up.” He snapped as he pulled her to him.

 

He pulled up the skirt of her billowy dress and she gasped as he slipped into her. She wanted information and he apparently would give it to her in the midst of pleasure. She bit her lip and grunted softly as he lay flush against her.

 

“Who is his mother?” She demanded again.

 

“Nia Besud. Happy now?” He asked nipping her throat.

 

“Nia Besud? What did she do to you? Why is she not here?” Asuna asked arching against him.

 

“She thought to keep me from my son. Out of all my children; I connected with him before birth. I knew that boy before he was born. She did not want me to have him and I was not going to be kept from him.” He said flatly.

 

He snapped his hips and she yelped out. She knew he was capable of great cruelty but there was something in him for certain people.

 

“What did you do Maec?” She asked then mewled.

 

“She went into labor with him and I ripped him from her womb. My second wife thought him beautiful but he was mine! I allowed her to feed him but he stayed with me in his early years.” Maec said darkly.

 

“He loved you!” She realized.

 

Maec said nothing and she realized the reason Hanaj was favored. His son had connected with him simply because he was powerful like Maec. He was strong and he had a mental connection with his sire. Maec threaded his fingers into her hair and yanked hard so she would look at him. He snapped his hips harder and watched her face.

 

“Did you love this Nia?” Asuna hissed and moaned.

 

“No. I love you. I have told you many times.” He said suddenly angry.

 

He was thrusting hard and it was painful and pleasurable. He lowered his mouth to her breasts and she whimpered as he suckled and slipped his fangs in. He lifted his mouth and he was watching her face.

 

“You want to know more? Ask.” He commanded in a harsh tone.

 

“How many male lovers have you had?” She asked as he slowed his pummeling.

 

“A few. I prefer the female form but I have kept a pet or two to use.” He said pulling her up.

 

He bit back a groan as he became buried deeper. It boggled his mind how much they detested but it was obvious that they now craved the other. She was biting her lower lip and it was sexy to him.

 

“You bastard. I hate you.” She said in blissful agony as she dragged claws down his back.

 

He again yanked on her hair and exposed her throat. He slipped his fangs into her throat and it threw her into climax. Maec crushed her to him and he used her for nourishment. Maec felt peace for a moment pass over him and she struggled in his arms. He lifted his mouth and he growled.

 

“Stop now.” He commanded.

 

“You act as if you are more then a pretty face Maec.” She snapped.

 

“Fine.” Maec yelled.

 

He phased out and she hit her head on the head board. He appeared beside her and chuckled. She slapped him and he threw her. She landed on her butt on the floor and she stood up. She knew she must look a fright and she lifted her chin.

 

“I want to know what happened to my son and you swore to somehow save her.” Asuna griped.

 

“Yes. Yes. Go away.” He said waving at her.

 

She flung a nami at him and he ducked. He was laughing and when he looked up she was gone. She was magnificent in his opinion and he intended to get what he wanted. He stood up and went to his clothing and rifled through the finery.

Maec was in the living world and his little display of death and mayhem brought him several shinigami. He told them to send him the one known as Kaito. He was standing before the bad boy of the Tomoshibi world and he smirked wickedly.

 

“You will do something because you love her.” He said slyly.

 

“Oh really?” Kaito asked in a nasty tone.

 

“Yes. You see I am going to do you a favor as well. According to another timeline it is dear old brother who killed me. Well it has now not happened and I am sure that you have no love for dear Kaimei.” Maec stated.

 

“No. I hate him.” The youngest Tomoshibi brother stated.

 

“He took from me and I know you do not like me but that is not the point is it? He and that bitch Juria did something and they will both suffer horrendously. I can make Kaimei suffer terribly for you too.” Maec offered.

 

Kaito stood there and he was in shock at himself. He hated most Shouten but his hatred of Kaimei was absolute. He stared at Maec and slowly nodded.

 

“I hurt her in my anger over your brother. I assumed she was apart of it. Restore the babe that died. I know not how you do it but do it and I will make certain that Kaimei suffers for his arrogance.” The Shouten king said very calmly.

 

“I hate you but I will do this. I will loose all ability to stay corporeal for some time.” He said flatly.

 

“Oh such limits on your power. You Tomoshibi are so worthless.” He said rolling his eyes.

 

Kaito growled and phased out. Asuna was sleeping and he took a deep breath. This was something he had not tried to do before. He pressed his hands to her belly and she woke up. Her eyes widened and she watched in shock as Kaito became bathed in pure light. His eyes went white and he whispered; I love you. He phased out and she made a noise. She felt her stomach and there was movement. She cried out as she cradled her stomach and she began to weep. Asuna stood up and ported to Yamasaki General. She went first to check on the twins and they were getting stronger slowly. Both had black hair and their eyes had not opened. Lei and Yhea both were there and she nodded to them. She went in search of Nobu and found him in his office. He looked up and he looked tired. She pulled up her pajama shirt and he pressed his ear. His eyes widened and he stared up at her.

 

“Asuna how?” Nobu asked shocked.

 

“Kaito.” She said in a raw whisper.

 

“Kamis. It is her. Naraku is in Korea.” He said hugging her.

 

She closed her eyes and she finally ported to his residence in Korea. Naraku was in the nursery rocking Miku when she walked in. He did not blame her but he was in pain. He held his baby close and he nodded to her. She did not even near him but lifted up her shirt. He could very well see her belly distended and his eyes widened in complete surprise. Miku was sucking her thumb and he laid her down in her crib. Naraku moved swiftly and felt her belly. It was the aura of the tiny baby he had buried himself.

 

“How?” He asked hoarsely.

 

“I made a deal with a devil but she will live and she will be okay. I want to name her Angel.” Asuna said cupping his face.

 

“What have you done?” he asked emotionally.

 

“Gave our baby a chance.” She said as emotionally.

 

Naraku savagely held her and kissed her with such emotion that she knew he had suffered. He had not expected this baby but as always he wanted her. He devoured his longtime mate and his other half as he ended up whispering to her belly and made promises to kill the Shouten responsible for her harm. He promised his unborn baby that Maec would die by his hand and he swore to his Angel that her mother would not suffer another loss like this again.

Arturo had lost his temper and he was now in Shenyang. He was watching carefully and he stared across the way at Ulquiorra. The Fourth Espada had sworn help and he now was delivering. Arturo would have his baby and he intended to go to his own father if necessary. He would not allow Hibari to keep her from him any longer. He saw his girl playing with inu pups and he saw the dragon that his ex lover was involved with. He walked over and Ryunosuke stood up and in the way. Reia screamed and got behind him.

 

“Begone dragon or you will suffer.” He said flatly.

 

“She is my daughter! She knows you not!” Ryunosuke cried.

 

“I was not given a choice now was I? Reia? Bebe girl come with me.” Arturo commanded.

 

“Haha! Where Haha?” She asked in a small voice.

 

“I do not know.” He said kneeling.

 

“Do not move dragon.” Ulquiorra stated flatly.

 

“How can you help him?” The dragon prince asked in anger.

 

“It is what Iyo did. It is unworthy of the daughters of this house but they choose to do it. Step aside or you will be treated as trash.” The Fourth Espada stated.

 

“Reia now!” Arturo snapped.

 

“No! Stay with Chichi.” She said clinging to Ryunosuke.

 

Arturo's anger flared in him hotly. What happened next shocked even him. The dragon seemed sad but he released a burst of energy that was pinkish in color and it burned the holy hell out of him. Ryunosuke never used violence but Hibari was in the hospital and he refused to give up what he considered his daughter. His eyes turned red and he changed form. Reia actually clung to him and he coiled around her in a protective manner. Arturo was in surprise but Ryu did it again. He opened his mouth and released more devastating energy attacks at the two Arrancar. What happened next surprised even Ulquiorra and small petal like blades cut into the two hollows.

 

“What the hell?” Arturo demanded.

 

“Scatter Senbonzakura!” Byakuya Kuchiki commanded.

 

“A fucking shinigami?” He yelled.

 

“Inelegant but accurate.” Byakuya muttered.

 

“Behind you!” Ryunosuke roared.

 

The Sixth Squad Captain whirled around in less then the blink of an eye and directed his sakura blades to swarm Arturo. Ulquiorra was not stupid and he was gone Arturo suddenly was in the air with fiery looking wings on his back. Byakuya stared up at him and Arturo released a blast of reiastu that was devastating in its intensity. The shinigami managed to protect himself with his bankai and it infuriated the self made Arrancar. When Byakuya lowered his shield, Arturo was gone and Ryunosuke unfurled his body. Reia was shaking in fear and she saw the black haired shinigami.

 

“Uncle Byaku!” She yelped and ran to him.

 

Reia hugged his legs as her father changed form. Byakuya picked up his mate's child and held her close. He had not known how he had known she was in danger, he just had. His friend neared him and bowed low. Both men stared at the other and relief washed through them.

Quon could walk again and he was in awe of the modern era. He was finally home and he heard screaming.

 

“Wen no! Wen stop!” Wenling growled.

 

“No! I have to go.” Wen stated as she slung a bag on her back.

 

Quon stared at one of his twin daughters and she ran to him. She kissed his cheek and she ran on. Wenling was sobbing and the twins were typical twins. Quon grabbed her and held her steady.

 

“She loves him. She has to find him.” He stated gently.

 

“He is a damn reptile!” His younger daughter said screaming.

 

“Wenling love does not know species. You should know that.” Quon admonished her.

 

“She is my sister. She is my twin and she spends more time with him!” She said wiping away tears.

 

“You two had to grow up some time my dear. Now where is your brother?” He demanded.

 

“He is fucking a Shouten.” She snapped.

 

Quon slapped her mouth and she got angry. She stalked off and Chen walked over.

 

“They got worse after you fell.” He murmured.

 

“Gods! Ba you should have beat them.” Quon said in horror at her mouth.

 

“My boy it is pretty bad when I am terrified of what those tigresses can do. They are not natural but we know that.” Chen shrugged.

 

Zihao stood in the hall and he saw his father. He was trying to coax someone forward and Quon could see the outline of a female. Zihao was pleading softly and Quon neared his eldest.

 

“Hello?” He asked.

 

“Oh! I have to go.” Bai said ready to phase.

 

“Bai please! This is my Ba. I have met your father.” Zihao said exasperated.

 

“I should not be here. I have to go.” She said phasing away.

 

“That is the first time I have seen her.” Chen said amazed.

 

“She is skittish. When I say skittish Ba and Jii-chan, I mean skittish.” Zihao sighed.

 

“That is Bai Jing?” Quon asked surprised.

 

“Absolutely gorgeous is she not?” His son asked.

 

“Yes.” He nodded.

 

“Hai, well I feel like we are doing something wrong. Oh Ba! Haha called and she is in Korea. She said she will be here later.” He said.

 

“Amazing. Your mother is amazing.” He smiled softly.

 

“I can sense something bad happened. Bai told me the Shouten twins are better and will go home next week but Naraku lost his mind when the other baby died. Maec is getting bolder too. He was in Soul Society.” Zihao explained.

 

“Wow.” Chen said shocked.

 

“Hai. Things are crazy. Wenling? What are you doing?” Zihao called.

 

“Going after my sister! If I have to help her then fine!” She yelled.

 

“Where is this Gabrielus anyway?” Quon demanded.

 

“No idea. Amedeo was found but they cannot find him. Wen damn near died giving him twins. He loves her Ba. Wen was headstrong with him and poor Gabrielus never stood a chance.” Zihao smiled softly.

 

“Well damn! Tell your Haha that I help Wen find her mate.” Quon said stepping down and following after his twins.

 

“Ba! She will be angry!” Zihao yelled.

 

“Let her. Just tell her I love her.” Quon shrugged.

 

Quon stopped short when he saw the toddlers at a door and one had stunning green eyes and the other brown. Both had silver hair and they were sucking their thumbs.

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Asuna was in deep contemplation and Naraku was there with his arms around her. His waving black hair fell past his shoulders and they both had no clothing on at the moment. He could not get out of her what she had done to get his baby back but he intended to get her out of any deals she made that she did not wish to be in. He was in a good mood for once and playful. She looked back at him and he smirked.

 

“What are you smirking about?” She asked.

 

“Thinking.” He grinned.

 

“Dangerous indeed.” Asuna remarked.

 

“Perhaps. You know what I think?” Naraku asked.

 

“What?” She asked smiling.

 

“I think you should go back and let me smell you. I think you should go back and parade this lovely belly in front of my past self and then let me think of that whore.” He said laying his hands on her belly.

 

“Oh?” She asked smiling.

 

“Hai. She has black hair and your stripes. No moon though.” Naraku said kissing her neck.

 

“Kamis you are making me weak.” Asuna sighed.

 

“Good. You make me weak. You have to go back you know and I want you take me another letter. I want you to work with me.” He said facing her.

 

His face was full of love and she smiled at him.

 

“Okay.” She sighed.

 

“Lay on your side.” Naraku commanded.

 

She did as he asked and he proceeded to work on her back. She closed her eyes and it felt wonderful. She had to tie up some loose ends here because she knew Maec. Things were not going well for him and he would go back when he could manipulate things better. They also had to find their son and she did not want to work with him but she had to find her son before he did. Things were escalating in the wrong direction and it was going backwards. It was not a good thing and it was dangerous. Asuna was so angry at Kaimei and Juria at the moment she could not speak to them. She knew they believed they were helping her but she was not Danika and to steal a child from her was a sin in her mind. Asuna closed her eyes and tears fell but she remained silent. She would head back soon but she had to let her children deal with their own issues as she had too much on her plate. She had too long of a list and it was boggling her mind. No she would have to make a stand in the past eras and the battles on the Ryuku Islands seemed to be looming ahead. The dreams she had before about Grimmjow reared and she buried her head. She had too much to do and she was only one onna. She looked outside and the moon looked blood red; it did not seem to be a good omen. It would dawn soon and she hoped the new day would bring new hope.
