Kita gasp reaching out to stop Raelin, but the words would not come forth. Kisuke grabbed her pulling her into him as she buried her face into his chest for a brief moment. She then looked back into the room as Gin's body arched forward and he grabbed at the sheets under him. Arcs of light admitted from Raelin's bow as she cleared away that she called the 'contamination' that surrounded Gin.
Burring her face back in Kisuke's chest as Gin's body arched again with a loud scream, Kita grabbed the edges of his jacket. "Hang on Gin. Hang on. We are coming." Kisuke stroked the back of her head down the long length of her dark hair as she trembled in his hold.

Raelin gritted her teeth as each arrow purified a dark chain on the soul reaper’s body and another welt or cut opened up on her own body. Her arms shook as the darkness wrenched Ichimaru’s body around like a grotesque puppet in an attempt to fight her off and as her powers pushed him back down. Gin snarled and lay limp for the fifth time. She took a slow, halting breath. And a chain slithered over Ichimaru’s chest to be crossed by another.
Raelin’s eyes narrowed. Her wings pulled her upwards and she pulled her arm back. Pain blossomed in her chest. Of course, she stated to herself. She let the arrow fly.
Gin’s eyes flew open, dark as blood, and something leapt through them. Something without a voice. It flung her against the wall and celling as something shattered in the room. She gasped as that same something crushed her chest, restricting her ability to breath. Her vision clouded.
Her wings flared. Blood filled her mouth as she choked.
And she dropped. Laying stunned on her stomach before she started coughing and crying.
She didn’t know why. She just was.
And it wasn’t because her lungs were on fire.

Ichigo was pasty white and his ears were ringing. Probably from the window that shattered. Or had it been more than one? He wasn’t sure. “Okay, what the fuck was that?” he croaked. He wiped his brow. “Please don’t tell me it was like that the first time she did this…. I mean…. what the Hell?!”
As Raelin coughed into the stillness, he shook himself from his weakness and kneeled down by her. “Hey, you oka-” His hand came away from her shoulder sticky with blood. And - she coughed again.
Fuck!
“Hey, wait a min- Kisuke, get Dad now. She’s coughing up blood!”
Raelin’s head gave a small shake. “It’s oka… I wo- won’t die…”
Ichigo caught Raelin as she slumped into his arms, blood seeping into his clothes. There were black blisters on the back of her neck. “Kisuke…. this is creeping me out…. I think she’s been strangled and burned.”

Kisuke sat Kita down in a near by chair looking at her with that eye of enforcement that told her not to move. He then crossed the floor over to Ichigo and Raelin. Drawing closer to her Kisuke noticed the things Ichigo was mumbling about. Numerous welts and whip like cuts across her body as well burning lashes from like a whip or rope. Helping her sit up he noticed her chest was slightly concave. It was the final blow. A direct crush to her lungs and heart. As if whatever attacked her wanted her dead for interfering.
"I don't know what did this, but she has had enough for the day." Kisuke replied as he tried picking her up from the floor.
"What about her coughing up blood?" Ichigo started again as Kisuke lifted Raelin up. "Shouldn't we do something now?"
As Kisuke lifted her into his arms Kita shot up from the chair he put her in. "I told you not to move."
Kita grimaced at him. "I can heal her. Take her to the guest room." She looked to Gin still on the bed. He seemed more restful his color not so white as the blood was returning to his face. She smiled slightly touching Raelin's shoulder as Kisuke walked past with her. "Thank you Raelin."
Stopping at the door Kisuke turned and looked at her, "Raelin first, Gin second, Kita. He's not going anywhere." Kita turned and walked toward them as the two left the room leaving Ichigo there with Gin.

Ichigo scratched at his head as he walked over to the comatose Fox. Jumping as he took a large breath and laid still again. Ichigo straightened. “Damn it, that was not spooky at all, Ichimaru. Breaking windows and crushing someone’s life. Where the hell have you slipped back to? You’re giving me goose bumps without pointing your mean ass blade at me. Or speaking. That’s just plain unfair, man.” He paused. “Seriously, dude, you need to wake up soon. It’s not hot leaving your girl and son just sitting here waiting for you.” He looked up at the ceiling. “You don’t know what you’ll miss.” Looking back down again, he shifted on his feet as Gin gave a chattering shudder. “And now you’re cold. Give me a break. It’s not like you were burning as well as scared for your life wherever your mind took you.” Grumbling and still unnerved, Ichigo left to find another blanket. When he returned, he nearly fell over as Gin’s hand twitched and he hissed something between his teeth. “Ki.. So… Kissssss”
He tossed on the blanket. "Wake up if you want to be kissed so badly. I'm not doing it."

"Recovery": After healing Raelin and resting, waiting for her strength to return, Kita ventured back into her room where Gin was resting peacefully. She stopped at the door her hand quickly covering her trembling lips as tears rolled down her cheeks. Slowly he was being freed of the hell that kept him hostage in his nightmares. His color was returning, his breathing was not so labored and the rapid eye movement from his thoughts and dreams was gone.
Kita let her hand drop as she went to the bedside when she saw fresh blood on him, his clothing and the bed sheets. She quickly moved them back checking Gin over well for new injuries. When she found none she realized it must have been from Raelin. Standing she walked over the closet in the room and got clean sheets and a new robe for Gin. She laid them to rest at the foot of the bed and went to the adjoining bathroom and got some clean warm water with a little soap and a rag. She walked back out setting the pan of water to the floor at the bedside and sat down on the edge of the bed. She slowly started removing Gin’s arms from the robe. Hearing a noise she looked up at the door seeing Sojiro standing there looking at his father. She motioned for him to come in. “My window’s broken,” he murmured. “Does that mean he’s coming back?”Kita chuckled lightly and waved him in as a joyful tear rolled down her check. “Slowly, yes, Raelin is freeing him from whatever it is that has a hold on him.”

Sojiro wandered into the room and took the nearest chair, his eyes still bloodshot and drooping. But a wane smile formed as he looked down at his father. “He no longer looks like a corpse and I think there’s a little bit of his famed smirk.” His head rolled to his shoulder. “Maybe he’s thinking of you.” He reached and stretched his arms upward with a long yawn. “Don’t cry please, okay? You were right and it’s working. He’ll be back soon.”
He shook his head to stay awake, eyes narrowing a bit at his next question. “How bad was it for Raelin? To help him? You told me she was bleeding last time and dizzy. Is it like that again?”

Kita went silent for a second keeping her eyes on Gin. “It was worse this time around. Whatever it was that had a hold of your father, it tried to kill her.”
Sojiro sat up straight in the chair, his eyes wide. “Is she alright?”
Kita nodded slowly. “Yes, I was able to heal her. I was afraid I was not going to be able to with how her powers work. But it worked and she is resting now.”
Sojiro relaxed some as he sat back and watched his mother finish cleaning up his father. When she went to change the bed covers he rose up and helped her out with moving his father so she had an easier time with the sheets. Once they finished Kita sat on the edge of the bed again on the opposite side next to Gin. Kita took Gin’s hand in hers. She sat there for a few seconds then slowly leaned forward and softly pressed her lips to his giving him a tender kiss.
She pulled back ever so slightly her lips brushing against his. “I love you, please hurry back to us.”

Sojiro sat there, blinking away another cloud of drowsiness when something happened out of the corner of his eye. Dad moved. Soji shot up, tripping over the chair in his hurry, and grinned as the hand twitched again. Grabbed the limp hand on his side as his mom stared transfixed at her lover’s face, he took a breath.
“Come on, Dad. Open them. Come on.”
The two of them held their breaths.
Taking another breath, Sojiro repeated his words. Kita took his other hand, carressing his knuckles with her lips. Soji clenched his free hand.
And Gin breathed out slowly, turning his head and licking his lips.
Soji chuckled. “He’s close. Isn’t he, Mom? After that?”

Kita nodded quickly unable to speak in fear of her voice trembling. Tears of joy formed in her eyes as she squeezed Gin's hand gently but firmly in hers. She swallowed hard and spoke. "We are here lover. We have been here the whole time waiting for your return."
She leaned over him resting her head to his chest, her hands going to his arms as she hugged him tightly. "We are here Gin. Waiting for you. All of us." She closed her eyes a soft whisper slipping through her lips.
"Thank you Raelin. We owe you so much for this." Her tears of joy slipped from her eyes falling to Gin's chest.

“Listening From Afar”:Hearing the crash of dishes to the floor, Kisuke sprang up from his seat only to have his hand grabbed by Kita. When he looked back at her, her eyes were still on Gin, but tears slipped down her cheeks as she bite her bottom lip and closed her eyes. He sighed, she felt him to. She knew he was there and he came to see Yumiko. Looking back out toward the hall, he then took his seat next to Kita once more, tightening his hold on her hand as she still held tightly to his. He lifted his other arm sliding around her shoulders as he pulled her close to him. “It’s better this way, Sweetie. They belong together, just like you and Ichimaru belong together.” He whispered softly kissing her temple gently as he then looked to Gin. “He’ll wake soon. I know he will. No one has ever been able to keep Ichimaru down for long.” Kita leaned into him as he gave her a tight squeeze once more. He shook his head as he felt his daughter tremble in his hold. "Think about Ichimaru. Not them." He whispered in her ear.

Kita wiped her tears away sitting up from leaning against Kisuke. With her other hand she took hold of Gin's hand resting across his chest and pulled it her direction resting it to the edge of the bed.
"And I know this. I keep telling myself this over and over again, but my heart is not listening." She turned and looked to her father figure. "It should be against the rules of nature to love two men this much." She lowered her eyes from Kisuke's. "I should be ashamed of myself. I can't be with both of them, but that is what my heart wants."

Kisuke cupped her cheeks lifting her head to look at him once more. "Then don't be with either. If it is causing you that much heartache, stay single. Just see them as dating partners. Nothing more. Don't tie yourself to either."
Kita looked at him blankly and blinked. "Do you realize you are talking about two men that will not allow that? Not to mention. Vale loves Yumiko. He wants to be with her. I am only the mother of his child." She shook her head. "I don't know where his feelings for me steam from. Be it that reason or something deeper," Her eyes lowered again. "Something different." She fell silent. "I just don't know what Vale wants from me, but I do know what Gin wants."
"And what is that?" Kisuke asked her brushing her dark raven hair from her face. Slowly she looked up at him.

"I am his light. His love. I saved him from the darkness that he could not escape from alone. He don't want to lose me to anything or anyone, and he would die to prove that love to me." She looked over to Gin and smiled.
"He has made me and Sojiro so much of his life I don't think he could function without either of us."
Kisuke chuckled softly as he to looked to Gin. "You might be right there." He looked back to Kita, "and what about Tervaden?"
Kita giggled softly. "Vale is..." she looked toward the door that opened into the hall. "Vale is different. He..." she hesitated more tears stinging at her eyes. "The true love of his heart belongs to Yumiko. He has her to love. Gin would be alone." She sniffled her head nodding slowly a weak smile crossing her lips. "And I have to except that and love him from a far. I don't want Yumiko to hurt anymore than she already has from all of this." She leaned in and hugged her father figure.
"You're right. Yumiko and Vale belong together like me and Gin belong together."

Kisuke closed his eyes and leaned into her kissing her forehead, pulling back he whispered softly. "Keep telling yourself that. It will make it easier when the time comes to let him go. You and Vale will only ever have you and Kadaj in common and a passing love you shared in times of need and being separated from the ones you truly love."
Kita leaned into him resting her head to his shoulder as he wrapped his arms around her and hugged her tightly. "I'm sorry, Sweetie. I know it's hard."
