Sojiro hugged her tightly. "Don't let him do that. You have enough of those. See if I can take one if he really wants something."
Kita shook her head quickly. "No way, darling. You're not getting dragged into this."
"I'm already stuck here. At least let me help."
She put her hands on her hips. "And what did you just say about not liking bargains?"
Sojiro's cheeks heated up but he refused to break eye contact. "Mom, he kept me here, and neither Daichi nor Sumi will let me get into too much trouble."

Kita giggled as she stood from the bed, her hand going to the top of his head as she ruffled his hair slightly. "I will do what I have to to get what I want. To get what we want or need." Her stomach started to rumble.
A second later so did Sojiro's. She smiled at him offering her hand. "Help me make dinner? It seems we are both in need."

Sojiro nodded, taking her offer. “Sure, but only if I get to decide what we are making. And if you stay for the full meal. No being dragged into the bedroom.”
As his mother promised she would, Sojiro finally felt some of his irritation fade away. Maybe he was just missing her. And maybe that was wishful thinking.
I won't let them hurt you more, Mom. I won't.

"Family Needs": (continued) Kita walked in the room seeing Sojiro sleeping in the bed. He seemed in a deep sleep almost coma like it was so deep. She walked over to the side of the bed and let her hand rest to his shoulder then shook him softly to try and rouse him.
"Sojiro," she called his name in a normal tone hoping to wake him. When he did not stir she tried again. This time her voice a little louder as she shook him again. "Sojiro..."

Kadaj ran in the room, stopping and wrapping his arms around her legs. "Toji!" he shouted before covering his mouth with his hands. "He not wake up. He s'eepin'." He put a finger over his lips and shushed his mother. Stepping around his mother, Kadaj crawled onto the bed and laid down next to his brother.
"Shhh."

Kita giggled lightly and sat to the edge as her two boys laid there together, Kadaj cuddled up in front of Sojiro as he lifted his brothers arm and draped it over him. Kita reached for the blanket and covered them both. As she did she ask Kadaj a question.
"Kadaj?"
"Yes mommy?" He said quietly wiggling down more next to Sojiro.
"Why did you believe your father when he told you Sojiro was one of the bad guys?"

Kadaj looked at his mother strangely. "'Kui told me that Toji and me not get 'long. 'Cuz one us not good no more. And, Daddy say it Toji." Kadaj closed his eyes and giggled. He opened one eye to look at his mother, then closed it again. "And, Shokun. He get mad when near Toji. So, Toji mus' be bad?"
"Sojiro is not the bad guy." His mother told him causing Kadaj to sit up in front of his brother and point at himself.
"I bad guy?" he pouted.
Kita giggled softly shaking her head. "No sweetie. You're not a bad guy either. Neither of you are. Both of you are just trying to protect what you love and care for. Just like me and daddy." Her head titled slightly at the boy. "Does that make us bad?"
"If not fight for same thing, Daddy say one is bad." Kadaj laid back down and cuddled up against his brother. "So...Toji bad..." Kadaj began to sniffle as he hid his face from his mother. "I not wan' Toji to be bad."

Kita's hand reached out and rested to Kadaj's little leg and patted it softly. "Has Sojiro ever tried to hurt you?"
Kadaj shook his head, "noo..."
"Bad people hurt innocent people. Has Sojiro ever done that?"

"I no know." mumbled Kadaj. He rolled over and crawled toward his mother. "I no know. I only t'ree." He rested his head in her lap and sighed. "I no wan' fight and 'rain with Shokun." Kadaj curled against his mother. "'Kui say that baby have fight too."
Kita rubbed her growing baby bump when Kadaj said that, her head then shook slowly. "Not if I can help it," she said silently. Looking back to Kadaj as he rested his head in her lap she smiled warmly. "I am sorry sweetie, but you have to train to learn how to control your powers. If you don't they could get out of control and you could hurt someone you love. You don't want that do you?"
"I fis it, then!" mumbled Kadaj. "Daj fis it!" Kadaj turned over. "No tell Daddy I show you where Toji was. K?"

Kita looked into little Kadaj's eyes and shook her head. "Is this the same place you sent Koga that day when he attacked Isshin?"
"No." admitted Kadaj. "I sen' Bir' to fire place." Kadaj hiccuped then giggled as he turned again. "I have the 'ups"
Kita's eyes widened as she tried to keep her voice natural, though her tone was on the shocked level. "You sent Koga to Hell?!" She started to giggle slightly. "Good place for him." She then lifted from the bed and walked over to the adjoining bathroom to get Kadaj a drink of water. She disappeared into the bathroom for a moment then walked back out handing her youngest the cup of water.

As a few drops of water splashed onto his face, Sojiro's eyelids fluttered, but he remained mostly unconscious, drifting. Words echoed around him in the grey surroundings, but they didn't really connect. Until someone bounced on him and said something about hiccups. But his limbs were still heavy. His head rolled to the side.
"TOJI!" Someone squealed in his ear. "Toji moved!"
Sojiro grunted as the body on top of him leapt up and down, jolting his body this way and that. He wasn't sure how long it took.
"Wake up, Toji! Wake up!"
Sojiro groaned and raised a hand to his head. "Daj...." He grunted as Kadaj tackled him, holding him tight, his little body practically strangling him. Struggling up, still in a daze, Sojiro sat up to relieve the weight on his chest." Hi, Daj..." He stroked his head and then looked up. “Mom.”
Kita smiled and set a hand on his shoulder. “How are you feeling?”
“Okay…” he murmured. “But why…” Slowly his memory came back, and he sighed, wrapping his arms around his little brother.
“Mom, this is wrong. Neither of you should be here. Especially after what just happened.” He paused. “You need to come home please.”

Kita shook her head at her eldest son. "What happened? If you are talking about the events that always take place, that is nothing new, and nothing that I cannot take care of. Your father is somewhere here in Las Noches, and in time I am sure will surface, seeking you and me out. You know the man as well as me."
Kadaj turned and looked to his mother handing her his empty cup. "Ups all gone~, mommy."
She giggled softly and took the cup as she leaned over and set it on the night stand next to the bed. Sitting back up she looked to Sojiro again as he sat up with his little brother on his lap. "Right now you are stuck here until your father comes out of hiding. If you wish I can have Sumi contact Makino and let her know you are well and with the family."

Sojiro’s eyes narrowed at his mother. “That would be nice, but that is not what I am talking about. You never wanted me to live here. So why is Daj? And why are you going to,” he adjusted his grip on his brother and pointed at her stomach, “allow them to?” He paused. “It’s wrong. And just now, my own brother sent me away.”
Kadaj fidgeted on his lap and Sojiro hugged him again. “I don’t blame you, Daj. It was a mistake.”
He looked back at his mother. “It’s this place. You shouldn’t be raising a family here.”

Kita narrowed her eyes at her eldest son. "I did fine raising you here. You turned out fine." She pushed up off the bed and took a few steps away from it. "I can do the same with Kadaj and the twins."
She turned slowly and looked to Sojiro once more. "I have unfinished business here. When that is settled I will move on again. But it will not be in Soul Society. So until then we are residents of Las Noches. Like it or not."

Sojiro set Kadaj down on the bed and kissed his head before approaching his mother. “You never wanted to raise me here. But you had no choice. Has that changed? You want to raise him in a place of bloodshed and despair. Where you’ve been hurt over and over? By both of the men you've loved?” He turned around, bitterness rising to his throat. He swallowed. “Besides, I was eight before I came here. He’s three. And they’ll be younger still.”
