When Juushiro returned Kisuke pointed him to the chair waiting for him. "I was just informed that the Goddess moved Kita and the boys to the Godly realm. For what reasons I have not been informed of yet." Kisuke looked to Sumi.
"I will make this short. It would stand to reason to assume Tervaden and Ryouma are back together. In this event Aizen had found out through his Arrancar. He summoned Tervaden to his Throne room informing him that Kita and the boys would be moved to his chamber and Tervaden would take the Noble. Aizen informed Tervaden that Kita nor the boys would ever be gracing his chamber again."
Kisuke raised a brow slightly confused. "And this gave you reason to move Kita and the boys? She has suffered much worse and you have never lifted a finger. Why now?"

Sumi's eyes narrowed at the Shopkeeper with his accusation. "Aizen was determined to keep them apart and Tervaden away from his son. Not that Vale would care that Kita was not by his side, but Aizen intentions with my vessel I was not going to allow. His claim over her as his Queen," Sumi face held a scowl as she looked away from them. "That Tervaden so generously put into place because he thought it was the safest place for Kita."
She looked back to Kisuke. "Backfired in his face. Aizen stepped over his bounds just as I knew he would. The man was just waiting for the right moment to put his plans into place. Waiting for Tervaden to make his move on the women he truly loved. So again. Ryouma. As a Pawn. Was used again. So Aizen could put his plans into action."

Gin leaned forward, hands tapping along his chair arm as Sumi explained the situation. But there was something missing. He folded his arm on top of his knee and set his chin in his hand, sharp eyes narrowed as he regarded the Goddess. “If I didn’t know any better, dear Goddess, I would say you are either sulking or quite angry. What is it you are keeping to yourself? Are you upset that Tervaden’s plans went wrong but he got something out of it anyway? Or were you really thinking something as small a ‘love affair’ would slow Aizen down long?”

Sumi looked to Gin with his sharp tongue. Her head titled slightly and a devilish grin crossed her lips. "If you all would have let Kita destroy Las Noches like she wanted years ago we would not be in this mess. If I remember correctly... You stopped her. Now," Sumi paused, turned and walked the floor.
"Aizen has consumed the Hogyoku. Since his little experiment of absorbing spiritual energy of the Captains and the stronger Soul Reapers the Hogyoku craves more. With Aizen's little demand on the orb it now absorbs the energy of every attack he takes and transfuses into his body." She turned and looked at the ones in the room.
"Slowly making him a God." She grinned, "which means every attack Tervaden, Alister, Kita as myself or even you throw at him. We are helping his need to become what he strives for."

Kisuke could not help but chuckle softly as he picked his hat up off the desk and placed it back on his head. He lifted off the edge of his desk his head shaking. "And with him being immortal the more we rip him apart the stronger he gets."
"Exactly," Sumi confirmed.
"But if you rip him apart you can find the orb, right?" One of the guards asked doubtfully.
Sumi looked his way her head shaking. "The Hogyoku is part of him. There is no finding of the orb."
The guards eyes batted quickly as Kisuke shook his head growling. "The Bastard has merged with it."
"Yes," Sumi confirmed again. "His demand on the orb was for the two of them to be one."
Kisuke spun slamming his fist into the desk as the desk cracked and folded under his strength. "Kita and the boys are not to leave the Godly realm." Kisuke growled.
"Tervaden has already made that request. I told him the longest I could keep them there was a month." She looked to Gin, "but she does not want to be there alone."
Kisuke turned and looked to Juushiro and Gin. "We need to ready ourselves and the others for anything. I want the women and children moved some place safe. Away from here."
"But where?" A guard questioned as Kisuke jerked his look from Juushiro and Gin.
"I don't care where! Just find somewhere safe!"
"Yes sir." The guard bowed with Kisuke's growl.
Kisuke looked to Sumi again. "How much time do we have?"
"You know I can't answer that question. I can not see into the future."
"Give me a good guess then!!" Kisuke bellowed at her.
Sumi's head shook. "I can't do that. They are out looking for them now. Tervaden has not told Aizen where they are, but that does not matter. In time Aizen will grow restless of coming up empty handed. He will then seek the three of you out and do his worst to get her to surface or he will turn to the captive."
Kisuke looked to Gin but spoke to Sumi. "Kita is NOT to be informed of anything that is taking place. NOTHING!" Kisuke now spoke to Gin. "You know Aizen better than any of us. What is your best guess on a time limit with this man? How long before he grows restless?"

Gin twirled the pen he had caught in the shopkeeper’s fury as he considered the question placed before him. The remaining guard was goggling at his laid-back attitude. And he loved it. The Fox’s grin grew wider. “You have longer than you think, Hat-n-Clogs,” he quipped.
“What do you mean by that?”
“Because it depends on the type of prey for what kind of patience level my master had. Even if that has changed now that he is a mashup of all creation, some of that remains the same.”
Kisuke’s eyes narrowed. “Do you need to be stuck to another boulder to put your riddles into plain speech, Ichimaru? Right now, I need facts, not layers of information wrapped up in obscurity.”
Gin chuckled. “Aizen will wait to strike longer than you think because his prey is my lovely wife, who - in his words- always comes back to Las Noches. I doubt Aizen has seen a reason to change his mind. He may throw a tantrum nowadays - something due to his prolonged lock-up in your dungeon - but he still has some of the same thought patterns. He’ll let his anger spur others to action and then calm down,” Gin’s hand clenched on the pencil in his hand, “to plot his retribution for her insubordination.”
The Fox’s eyes gleamed with malice before he continued to spin his trinket.
“You have two weeks - roughly. IF he’s not wrapping any other prey in this excitement.”
“What do you mean?” the lone guard whispered.
Kisuke also waited.
“If Ryouma was a pawn to manipulate Tervaden, then it’s possible that he’s not done with either of them. He may be planning to put the new father through his paces. Aizen’s immortal. He has NOTHING to lose and everything to gain by pushing Vale Tervaden’s buttons. Who is also immortal.”
He paused. “Everything, including exposing ‘the betrayal he can’t see,’ my master’s words to one of your own.”

Kisuke turned from Gin his hand going to his chin as he rubbed it with his fingertips. "Two weeks?" He looked to Sumi. "You said you could hold them there for a month?"
Sumi nodded slowly. "Kita has not made request of this, but I know she will want Tervaden there a couple if not a few times a week."
"If Vale is going there on a temporary basis, then it is only fitting I move in, don't you think?"
Sumi looked to Gin. "She asked Tervaden if I could bring you there. She wants her family back, but right now..." Sumi fell silent.
"Right now what?" Kisuke questioned.
Sumi looked from Gin to Kisuke. "It is not my place to say. This is between Ichimaru, Kita and Tervaden."
Kisuke nodded looking to Gin. "I can understand that. There is a lot going on there."

Juushiro looked from the goddess to Ichimaru and back. Ichimaru still seemed rather calm about the whole thing. Even the threat to Kita. But the goddess seemed wary. A thought came to his mind. “How old is her new child?” he asked gently.
"Kadaj is two and a half days old." Sumi replied, her head tilted slightly. "What does that have to do with any of this, Ukitake?" She shook her head. "And do not make comment about the women being Postpartum. If that were so Kita has been postpartum for twenty years with the stress everyone has put her under."
Juushiro shook his head. "I am not worried about that, but are you being reticent about Ichimaru joining them because Kadaj is so young he may see Ichimaru as the father if Tervaden is away?"

Sumi looked away from the white haired Captain quickly, looking to Kisuke. "No." With that she quickly changed the subject. "Kisuke you were saying something about having two weeks and me holding Kita and the boys for a month. What were you getting at?"
Kisuke chuckled softly adjusting his hat. "A subject change I see." He crossed the floor to a bookcase. "I was just thinking was all. Trying to get my thoughts in line with the time limit I have."
Sumi nodded folding her hands in front of her remaining silent unless spoken to. She told them what needed to be told. Now it was up to them and what they would do with the information.

"Sparing them from the entire truth will only do more harm than good, Seraph." Alister's voice came softly as he became visible to those in the room. "Why not tell them that moments before you brought Vale to the godly realm, Aizen told the man that his son was his property. Why not tell them that before demanding to be sent from our realm, Tervaden broke beneath the thought of Ichimaru raising his son."
Alister looked to Ichimaru then to Urahara. "Making Kita Aizen's queen had not backfired, as your Seraph has suggested. She is still the most protected being in all the realms."
"From everyone but Aizen."
Alister shook his head. "Even from him. Did the goddess fail to tell you that Tervaden charged me with protecting Kita? When she is with Aizen, she is without the Seraph's power. But, he can not negate mine. She has been safe since the request was made."
"Tell them, Seraph, Vale has done everything in his and my power to protect her and their family. Right now, his biggest fear is losing his child. A fear you've began to play with. Sousuke Aizen will not break Tervaden...You will."

Sumi looked to Kisuke ignoring the God of Fire. "I would suggest you get everyone out of here now. Find a new hiding spot. You are no longer safe here since he..." she looked to Alister. "Knows where you staying."
"I've always known, dear goddess. It is because of Tervaden that the Ayakashi or Espada have not moved on this place to destroy it. And, if you seek to blame Tervaden for Teruo, the beast can barely be contained."
"I blame Tervaden for many things in this war. Along with you and your meddling. What good Tervaden has done, does not out weight the wrong. He was using my vessel to achieve his goals. In my books, he is no better than Aizen. Tervaden even went as far as having you make Kita love him. Not even Aizen has sunk that low." She tilted her head looking at Alister. "Yet... So tell me Alister. Was your Master that hard up for companionship that he had to force a women to love him? A woman that clearly loved another and had a family. Was Tervaden that lonely?"
Her head shook. "Of course not. He was using her for some reason. A reason I was not able to find out because he had to release the woman before it took place. So in my eyes he did it out of jealousy. He was envious of what she and Ichimaru had. Something Tervaden will never have." Her tone hateful and cold.

Alister lunged at the goddess, wrapping a hand around her throat. "Tervaden may be many things, envious is not one of them. No, his good does not out weight his bad. But, his bad does not out weight his good. I turned a kind, gentle man into a beast burning on chaos. He found peace in both Ryouma and Miyamoto."
"Ryouma is the love of his heart. But, that was taken from him. He then found comfort in Miyamoto. She gifted him a son. But, instead of granting the man the peace and happiness he deserves, you become the bitter spiteful bitch that you truly are! You turn a blind eye to what good he's done, just to ensure people know his evil."
Alister looked to Kisuke."You've seen his heart, Urahara. You know what a kind man he can be." As he turned to look at Ichimaru, his hold on the goddess grew tighter. "It may have happened in brutal fashion, but Tervaden has forced you to find your path for the better. Not to keep you from Miyamoto. And, Ukitake. Your daughter's judgement has not failed her. She sees in Tervaden what many can not."
Alister slammed the goddess into the wall beside them. "Continue to follow the foul words of this bitter god, and she will lead you astray."

Kisuke adjusted his hat back to look at Alister. "Release her and leave her be. My judgment about Tervaden will not be swayed by her. Only Tervaden himself can do that." He watched as the God of Fire released Sumi. "Though I do want you to answer one question for me."
Kisuke looked to Gin from the corner of his eyes. He could see he was aching to ask the same question. Then in unison the two ask the burning question. "Then why did Tervaden make Kita love him?"
Gin lifted from his seat. "Even if he does cares about my lovely~ wife. He don't love her. Why make her love him?"
Kisuke's hand went to his chin as he rubbed it. "I have to admit, even though I have seen some admiral things done by Tervaden. I have seen some very questionable things as well. Like with Vacanze. He freed him form the Maze under Kita's request, but then behind her back blocked all memories of her making them to when the poor man -- even if he looked at her -- he felt as if his head was going to explode. What was that all about?"

"My answer is very simple, it was done so she would not chase after the man. But, the heart wants what it wants." Alister looked at the shopkeeper. "The same with the former Espada. He had to minimize any chance that she be taken from Las Noches."
"But if Tervaden cared about her why would he care if she was taken from Las Noches?" A guard ask, Alister whipping around to look at the man. "Sorry -- I will be quiet now." The mans head lowered.
Kisuke could not help but chuckle softly. "He raises a good question, Alister. Why?"
"To Tervaden, keeping Miyamoto in Las Noches meant minimizing the damage done to her."

Kisuke nodded slowly his eyes combing the room as he looked to the others. His eyes stopping on Alister once more. "So what is the next move on Tervaden's end? He..."
Kisuke paused, his look more intense as he looked to the God of Fire. "Both of you are aware of what Aizen has done, correct?"
