"Tervaden does not know. And, I will not trouble him while he is this unstable." Alister looked to Urahara, a smirk forming on his lips. "There was a reason Tervaden had me create a hogyoku with two masters."
"Why?" asked Kisuke.
"To ensure the scales could never be tipped. To maintain two masters, both men must be of equal strength. If not, the hogyoku will crave a power it can not obtain then die. To ensure that this does not happen, if Aizen's strength grows so will yours."

Kisuke's eyes widened his hand lifting to his hat. "Really now?!" His hat pulled down over his eyes. "Well ain't I embarrassed, and here I thought I was the genius in creating a Hogyoku that only had one Master. Hm, I might have to do some looking into this."
Juushiro cleared his throat. "I don't think we need any more Hogyokus created."
Kisuke frowned looking at his longtime friend. "Don't rain on my parade, Juushiro. This is a major breakthrough." Kisuke looked to the God of Fire. "You will have to share your secrets with me." His frown turned into a sly grin.
Juushiro's hand covered his face as the God of Fire only returned his grin.
"SO!" Kisuke announced after a few seconds of silence as he turned and walked the floor. "How much time can you buy for us, God of Fire? You get me a good time allotment and I will do the rest." He turned and looked at Alister. "So what say you?"

"That is entirely up to you." answered the god. "I could place the hogyoku in a dormant state. Doing this would cause Aizen to have no access to its power. And, he would lose the ability to absorb any more. This however, puts not only Miyamoto, but Tervaden and Ryouma in great danger."
Kisuke gave the God a confused look as he heard Sumi reply. "Kita will be safe where she is. No one." A wide grin crossed her lips. "Not even you, Alister can get to Kita and the children unless I deem it."
Kisuke's hand slid under his hat rubbing his forehead. "Sumi. We are trying to work this out peacefully. Even though we are not on the same side we all strive for the same goal." He looked to the Goddess. "Defeat my brother." he looked back to Alister. "How is it that this could be dangerous to them, Alister?"
"Tervaden had made use of the god stones. And, he made your brother aware of them. He will find some means to retaliate...If he can come into contact with the god."

"And almost everyone can fall to piece and be put back together,” Gin tossed the bits off pencil in the trash, "but Ryouma. She's the only one not immortal in this little fiasco we’re stuck in."
“That’s not a funny analogy, Ichimaru,” Juushiro murmured.
“I wasn’t saying it to make fun,” Gin retorted. “I was pointing it out to prove that Aizen could attack Tervaden through her IF we put too much pressure on him before we’re in any position to strike or if either of them are unprepared.” He tilted his head.
“What would you say, shopkeeper, to giving something to your lucky brother that will - shall we say - absorb the extra power into itself?”

Kisuke nodded to Gin's suggestion then looked back to Alister. "Do it until I figure out what to do with my brother." He turned and paced the room while thinking. "If Tervaden could protect Kita the way he did, he can do the same for Yumiko. We could even bring Kita and the kids out of hiding."
Sumi growled her hands clenched at her sides. "I will not bring my vessel or her children out of hiding. Not with what Aizen is planning. He will torment Kita and Tervaden until they are at one another's throats and the children will be right in the middle."
Kisuke looked to Sumi. "You might be right there, but you are still limited on how long you can keep them there."
"If I have to move them every day to keep Aizen from finding them or even take them to another country, I will." Sumi growled.
For the first time in knowing the Goddess, Kisuke's narrowed his eyes at her. "You will not take my daughter or my Grandchildren away from me."
"Why not?! You," she pointed, implying at the others in the room as well as Kisuke, "as well as everyone one of you in this room are willing to let her and the children live in misery in Las Noches. At least she will be safe if I take her away from here."
Gin surged forward and punched the wall next to the goddess. "You're lucky," he grinned, "that I usually like you," he sneered. "No one is taking Kita that far. She'll hate it and be even more alone. You are not a substitute for everyone."
Sumi did not flinch as Gin attacked the wall next to her, her eyes narrowed as she started to fade from the room. "I will do what I was ordered to do by the Soul King himself. Protect my Vessel and her children at all cost. That includes making each and everyone of you hate me." Her voice echoed in the room after she disappeared. "When you are ready to see her, Ichimaru, just say the word and I will send you to her."
Kisuke growled, his look jerking to Alister. His tone edgy, but he kept it together while speaking to him. "Can you do that, Alister? Place the Hogyoku in a dormant state. It will buy me more time."

"I can." The god of fire nodded. "To do it, I need Tervaden. Right now, Ryouma is unable to calm him." He looked to Urahara, folding his arms over his chest. "You were able to help him before, after being told what he had done before his memory was taken. Perhaps, you can help him again."
"Sumi. I know you're listening." Sumi appeared back in the room and looked at him. "You will take the four of us to Kita and the children."
"Four?" Sumi looked to Juushiro.
"No. Me, Tervaden, Ichimaru and the God of Fire." Kisuke informed her.
"I cannot." She looked to Alister with narrowed eyes. "Even if I wanted. No other Gods are allowed in the Seraph's domain."
Kisuke looked to Alister then back to Sumi. "Then the three of us. I think what Tervaden needs is to be reassured that his child is not going to be taken for him and the only way that will take place is for him to hear it from the ones he fears will being doing that." He watched the Goddess' eyes narrow but she agreed to his request with a stern nod.
Gin started snickering, making the group turn to him. He waved his hand. "I just find it funny how the crazy shopkeeper is the one to show the crooked ones the way to sanity~"
The god of fire shook his head. "There is one other option, to calming the impending storm, after speaking with Tervaden."
"And, that would be?"
"We can inform Aizen that Captain Hirabayashi is with child."
"Whose child?" whispered a saddened voice.
"His child."

Juushiro paled, but before he could say anything, Sajin’s voice lifted in a mournful howl. Whispering a kido, Juushiro sealed the room’s sounds and walked to the shadows where the gentle giant had slipped in. “You will not speak of this to anyone,” he said over his shoulder to the guard caught in the spell. "This is an order from myself.”
The guard blinked and then nodded jerkily. He knew that right now, when the Captain Commander was gone, that Captain Ukitake was the next closest to being the Gotei’s leader. He hadn’t made that order lightly.
Juushiro walked over to the corner with a sad smile. “Try to believe in the future, Sajin. Shunsui and Sakuma need you to believe."
“Why should I?” whispered the wolf man, golden eyes misty and ears back in sorrow, “My heart has shattered beyond repair. And you tell me to have hope? To believe?” He closed his eyes as Juushiro pressed his hand to his shoulder. "My Ryo..My wife, she will not return to me.”
Juushiro closed his eyes. “You don’t know that,” he stated, a slight bite in his gentle tone. “And you are her husband. It is not your place to give up on her. You, more than any others.” He looked to the others and dropped the force field before glancing back to the broken man on the ground.

"She will not return to me." whimpered Sajin. Ukitake turned slowly as the large Captain began to rise from the ground. "He has broken her body and spirit." Sajin threw his head back in a deafening howl, frighting the guard to turn and draw his blade. The guard shouted, demanding that he stand down.
Sajin growled angrily, swinging his large fist. His fist connected, as Sajin backhanded two small guards through the wall of the room.
"Sajin!" shouted Juushiro. "Your enemies are not here! Calm down before the children hear you!"
Sajin's golden eyes narrowed at the Captain before him. He growled loudly, bearing his fangs. Suddenly, Sajin charged at the mild mannered Captain. His claws tore into the man's arm seconds before Sajin found the palms of Urahara's hands at his chest.

A shock of kido flowed through the wolfs body taking him to his knees. Kisuke moved down as the mass of a man fell forward into his arms. "I am sorry old friend. I know this is hard on you, but sleep now. I promise you we will get them all out of there."
He laid Sajin to the floor and turned looking at the others. Gin tending to Juushiro. The men that Sajin sent through the wall was being tended to by the ones in the hall. Adjusting his hat he bowed his head as in an apology to the God of Fire and the Seraph. "It's been hard on us all with our loved ones locked in Las Noches. Some more then others."
Shinji and Kairo bolted into the room looking around Shinji shaking his head when he saw Sajin on the floor. Kisuke looked to them both. "Gather a few more men and take Sajin to his room, but make sure the boys are nowhere to where they can see this."

Kairo nodded before going to gather some men. Shinji patted giant’s limp paw. “At least we know when he would crack.” He looked to the Snake trying to patch Ukitake’s arm. “You might want to keep your distance, too, Jii-chan. They’ll get upset seeing you hurt and that wound is not going to disappear with one session of healing."
As Kairo returned with a dozen people from the stealth force, Juushiro nodded. “Recruit Isshin,” he responded. “He’ll keep them occupied until they fall asleep.” He stopped his healing to preserve his energy. “I just need one day off.”
“Not really,” Gin muttered. “There’s bone showing here, and you’re pale as death.”
Kisuke chuckled and pushed Gin aside to take over wrapping the worst of the wound. “Don’t you know that this man is as stubborn as you when he doesn’t want to worry anyone?” He looked to his friend from under his hat. “At least sit down, you great fool.”
Juushiro smiled. “The thought did pass my mind.”
“And then why aren’t you sitting?” Kisuke pushed him gently in the stomach, making the man fold into the chair Ichimaru brought up. "And have you taken your medicine this afternoon yet?"
“No," Juushiro breathed, "and that's because I was focusing on a smile so not to worry the soldiers - or Sajin if he resisted the kido and woke." Kisuke opened a drawer and pulled a green bottle out, pouring him a dose as Shinji laughed behind them.
“I swear without Urahara here, you would be wandering around, half-dead and coughing up blood in a handkerchief if you thought it would keep people from panicking. You take the cake when it comes to caring for others.”
He pointed to the gods in the room. “Can’t one of you do something? He’s kind of important, especially if you’re going to take our shopkeeper for a vacation.”

Sumi walked over taking his hand in hers letting her healing powers flow him. "This could all end. All you would have to do is say the word. Kita, the children, Yumiko and even the Wolf Captain's wife would be home tonight." Sumi whispered to the white haired captain.He chuckled and shook his head. “That would not be what Kita wishes. She wants all safe not just her. She will not wish for her freedom without the others.” Sumi sighed and released his hand as the bandage fell away from his arm. "All would be saved that do not belong in Las Noches, but if more suffering is what you wish then don't blame me for your fallen when Aizen has finished with them."
She turned and looked at Kisuke and Gin. "It is time to go." She waved her hand not giving them time to answer or any other to object. She looked to Alister. "Go stay with the Noble. Vale is fading from her sight right about now." The three faded from the room leaving their hideout behind for another in the Godly realm. Alister leaving for Las Noches to be with Yumiko and ensure her safety.~END RP~ "Peace of Mind for the Rogue":

"Unleashed Hell":Teruo stood on the roof of the building below him, his reiatsu completely concealed. He drew Naraku, and pointed the black blade toward the sky. "Tokihanatsu jigoku."Naraku shattered in Teruo's hand, as his eyes blackened. Shards of Naraku began to pile into masses. As the masses shifted in form, Teruo said their names."Captain Commander Shunsui Kyoraku. Captain Nori Mutsu. Captain Isane Kotetsu. Captain Byakuya Kuchiki. Captain Tsukiro Ashimitsu. Captain Ryo Komamura. Captain Toshiro Hitsugaya. Captain Juushiro Ukitake. Captain Sajin Komamura. Captain Kenpachi Zaraki. Captain Kurotsuchi Mayuri. Captain Shinji Hirako."Teruo's fingernails grew as they oozed with his poison. He pointed below him."Kill them."Meanwhile back in Las Noches: "Gate to Freedom":

-HOURS LATER-
When Kita appeared she was a few yards from Gin, Sojiro and Kisuke. Kadaj was safely tucked in the arms of the man she called husband and lover. She turned in place where she appeared not noticing where she was, but she did notice the smell of blood and burning wood, fabric and paper wafting around in the air. She turned again as her eyes widened. A small village set out in front of her. The sky above it was black with smoke, dead bodies scattered on the ground, pools of blood under them, and blood splattered buildings.
She turned quickly back to Gin and the others as they too were on looking the massacre that stretched out before them. Tears streaked her face again knowing Aizen was behind this, but where were they? Kita did not know.
“GIN!! WHAT HAPPENED?! WHERE ARE WE?!”
She ran toward him quickly, Gin grabbing her in his free arm holding her and Kadaj tightly against him as Sojiro walked up to them, Kita wrapping an arm around him.
“This…this is my fault. They all suffered because of me and what Sumi did.” She sobbed burring her face in his chest. “He won’t stop until he finds us.”

"No it ain't." groaned Kensei, stepping out of his hiding place. He wiped his face free of blood splatters. "It was that damn Ayakashi, Teruo. He came in..." Kensei shook his head. "He had copies of the Captains."
"Where is everyone else, Kensei?" growled Kisuke.
"His reaitsu was completely concealed. But, one of the guards from the stealth squad spotted him and gave a silent warning. We were able to get most out and out of the way so that we could fight back." Kensei shook his head again. "We thought we had gained the upper hand when we started fighting back. But, then...Then, he made a copy of the two of you." He raised his hand and pointed to Ichimaru and Urahara. "He even made a copy of that bastard Aizen."
"What happened?!"
"Where's the bastard?"
"He's gone!" shouted Kensei. "He just laughed an left. Like his ass got bored..."

Seeing the devastation around her Kita's heart sank deeper in her chest. She knew what she had to do. Removing the top two layers of her three layer outfit, she grabbed Shinsou at Gin's side.
Gin grabbing her hand out of reflex. His eyes were narrowed but quickly softened seeing Kita at his side and her hand on the hilt of his blade. He let her draw the sword as he watched her stab the bladed into the fabric of her shed clothing and start ripping it into shreds of cloth. The first piece was large as he watched her quickly convert it into a makeshift sling wrap for Kadaj. She lifted it over her head resting it to her shoulder and took Kadaj from Gin resting the child safely within the sling.
After she did, she looked to Gin and the others. "Find the worst of the group and bring them to me." She looked to Kensei resting her hand to the shoulder of the quickly healing Visored helping him heal faster. "Please find Isshin. I am going to need his help and any others that are strong healers. Gather them and tell them we have lives to save."
Kensei looked at his now completely healed form and smiled at the woman. With a firm nod Kensei was gone, off to do what she ask of him.
She then looked to Sojiro. "Sojiro. I need your help as well. Find me as many blankets, sheets and anything else I can use for a bed. Go to the village if you have to. Can you do that sweetie?"
Sojiro nodded and took off as his mother quickly turned away from the ones left standing around and she herself went to work in the room. "I need first aid kits or any supplies you have around to help in the healing progress." She turned and looked at Gin and Kisuke as they still stood looking at her. "Why are you still standing there. People are dying." A tear rolled down her cheek as she swallowed them back and wiped them away. "This is my fault -- I have to save them at all cost... I have to save them." She turned back and started cleaning up the room again pushing this around and moving things out of the way. The ones that could still get around stepped up and helped Kita with clearing the room.
