The family unit continued onward, the children chitchatting among themselves. "What is taking him so long?" Morgiana briefly wondered. Her eyes scanning their surroundings for any possible danger. Breathing in deeply through her nose, she checked for unfamiliar smells or unwanted company. The she caught however, was very familiar but not. She tilted her head curiously, the children had yet to notice she change in posture.

It wasn't until a cloaked man walking down the road towards them brought their attention to Morgiana's stiff shoulders. Something was wrong. The man seemed to be lost in his own world. His face covered by the large cloak he wore. Looking up, he stopped suddenly in his tracks, dropping the pack he had been carrying and acting as if he had seen a ghost. Though his eyes weren't visible, his mouth was and it was hanging open.

Nadeem was astounded. He had been walking for only forty minutes and there she was. His mother, walking down the road... with a line of children behind her. He clenched his fists and ground his teeth, furious to see Morgiana had been forced to give Hakuryuu more children. "That bastard. He will die today!"

Morgiana looked at the man, standing before her, a cloak covering his face. "Can I help you?" She questioned, her kids where all behind her, wondering who this guy was that stood in their path. The man raised his hand, pulling back his cloak to reveal a face so heart-breakingly familiar. Morgiana gasped, the dark haired, red eyed man looking back at her was her son. Her oldest son. Seeing his face quickly clearing her foggy memories of him.

The kids behind her gasped at the stranger that looked like them. "Wh-who is that mother?" Hakuyuu asked, griping his swords handle on his belt.

Morgiana couldn't answer, tears flowed from her eyes, she was frozen in place. Nadeem's eyes shifted over his unknown brothers and sisters. They watched him with a mixture of fear, wonder, and curiosity. Waiting to see what he would do. They looked so much like him, especially the dark-haired girl. They even had the same mole on the left side of their chins. It was so painfully obvious they were related. "Mother." He spoke, making the children gasp. "I've finally found you." His eyes convey their longing to see her again.

Morgiana rush to him, enveloping him in a hug like she use to when he was a small boy. "I'm so sorry. I didn't know." She cried, griping the back of his shirt, tears wetting the side of his neck and shoulder. "I don't understand! I'm so confused." She cried, alarming her children even more.

"Mother?" Hakuyuu stepped forward but no more, keeping his hand on his sword. He didn't know this guy; therefore, he didn't trust him. Nadeem, looked over his mother's shoulder, studying each child related to him.

"It's okay mother. I'll keep you safe." He whispered to her, placing his hand on the back of her head. Nadeem had grown so much, he stood two feet taller than her. Towering over his brothers and sisters behind Morgiana.

This was how Hakuryuu found them. Seeing the first child he had ever produced with Morgiana, the one he left back in Sindria made him freeze in his steps. His eyes widened at the boy who had grown into a man and he looked just like him. Only his eyes were red, he didn't have scars and his face wasn't as long. That was it. He could have been mistaken for a him easily.

Seeing Hakuryuu arrive, Hakuren called out to him, wanting to know what was going on. "Father! Who is this guy?"

Hearing this Nadeem's eyes snapped up searching for the monster that took his mother and found a man, a man that look exactly like him. It disgusted him that they looked so much alike. So, this was his father by birth. "You!" He pushed Morgiana behind him, taking her by surprise. "How dare you show your face after what you did!" He screamed, frightening Siri who was holding Satori, the baby began crying. Rei stepped back, afraid to be caught in this man's rage which was being directed at her father. Hakuyuu pulled out his sword, standing guard in front of his brothers and sisters. Hakuren clutched his spear, he was ready to jump into the fight if need be, he didn't care who this guy was but if he tried to hurt his mother or father, he would end him. "Damn you! Damn you for what you did!" Lifting his sword in the air he spoke the command. "Dwell in my body! Kahim!" Lightning stuck him, transforming him and activating his full body Djinn equip. Morgiana gasped, at the sight of her oldest. His hair went down to the center of his back flowing around him to a wind that wasn't there, it became so dark it looked like the night sky. His iris's turned white while the rest of his eye were black, they glowed furiously at the man before him. His clothes transformed into something very similar to what Alibaba wore when he was in his full body djinn equip, only the colors were gold and white. His sword had transformed into a what looked like a claymore that was almost comparable in size to Hakuryuu's scythe when in his Belial form.

Hakuryuu watched his child's transformation with wide eyes. "Nadeem." He whispered the boys name, this only seemed to infuriate him more.

"I'll make you pay for what you did to my mother!" It was like he was looking at himself from many years ago, only now the shoe was on the other foot. "Die!" He charged Hakuryuu, ready to cut him down.

"No!" Morgiana screamed, snapping Hakuryuu out of it. Using his spear, he blocked Nadeem's attacked, the edge of the sword getting dangerously close to his neck.

Hakuryuu narrowed his eyes at the angry boy. "You have every right to hate me." He spoke, surprising Nadeem. "But I love her, and I will not let her be taken from me. Not this time."

Nadeem's face reflected outrage. "She was never yours to begin with! You stole my mother! I hate you!" Hakuryuu shoved the boy back, using his magoi to strengthen the spear.

Seeing that there was no point in talking this out with him, he held his spear in front of himself and spoke the command. "Dwell in me, Zagan." Transforming into his full body djinn equip, shocking Nadeem.

"Kick his ass dad!" Hakuren yelled.

"What is this? This isn't the djinn I saw you use before! Use the one you did that night! Use the monster I recognize!" Nadeem ordered, pointing his sword at him. Hakuryuu didn't react, just watched and waited for the boy to attack and attack he did. Calling forth a command, he used it to slow Hakuryuu's time and speed up his own, intending to go in for a quick kill. Feeling himself slow down, he realized quickly what was happening. Using his abilities from Belial, he made Nadeem see an illusion. Making seem like he was unaffected by his djinn and jumping around out of the way of his attacks, when in reality the boy was chasing air, while Hakuryuu was off to the side letting him exert energy. He didn't want to hurt Nadeem, not any more than he already had. If he could just get the boy to listen. Moving out of the spells radius he floated over the kid, watching him ruthlessly attack a constantly moving image of himself. With how much energy he was using, he would run out of magoi soon. "Damn you! Stay still!" He slashed at the image and watch in satisfaction as his sword cut through Hakuryuu but it soon turned to confusing seeing that he did no damage, as if it had cut nothing but air.

"Your djinn is not meant for brute force. Its more strategic then that." Hakuryuu spoke from behind him. Nadeem gasped, turning to attack but Hakuryuu, hit him hard to the ground with the pole of his spear. He landed hard, making a crater in the ground.

"Damn you." He struggled to raise himself up after the heavy blow. This guy was stronger then he expected, he hadn't predicted that the Kou Emperor would have captured more than one djinn. He had miscalculated. "I won't stop! I will take my mother back and end you. I made a vow." He stood shakily, tired from using so much magoi.

"I don't want to hurt you." Hakuryuu landed with grace on the ground a few feet away.

"I don't care." He stood, putting up his sword and getting in a defensive position.

"Stop this. Can't you see your upsetting your mother." Hakuryuu scolded.

Nadeem looked affronted. "What?" He glanced over at Morgiana and his eyes widened at the fear in her eyes. Was it fear of him? "I- mother I…" He didn't know what to say. Saving her meant everything to him but did she not feel the same why? Did she not see this man for the monster that he was? "He stole you from me. I wasn't strong enough. I couldn't protect you." Nadeem whispered, tears gathering in the corners of his eyes.

"Nadeem…" Morgiana took a step towards him, wanting this to stop.

"Nadeem!" Everyone gasped at the new voice coming from above. Hakuryuu blocked the attack just in time as Alibaba's fire covered knife collided with this spear. Infusing his spear with magoi to strengthen it so Alibaba couldn't cut through it. "Hakuryuu! You betrayed me!" He yelled, looking Hakuryuu directly in the eyes.

"Alibaba?" He hadn't been expecting his old friend and rival's entrance.

"How could you do this to me! We were friends! Brothers in arms!" He slashed and cut at Hakuryuu who blocked and parried his blows, years of none stop practice allowed him to stand in equal ground with Alibaba's royal swordsmanship. "We fought side by side! Did all that mean nothing!" He yelled.

"It did mean something! It meant more to me then you'll ever know but she meant the most!" He yelled back, turning the tables and put Alibaba on the defensive. "You knew I loved her and still you took that from me! I had nothing!"

"You selfish jerk! You had all of us!" He swung hard but still his sword of Amon couldn't cut through. "You had a home! All of your life, you had something or someone! I grew up on the streets! I had to kill my best friend and now I have to do it again because of you!"

Nadeem shook himself from his shock, seeing this father charge in. Did he follow him? Readying to join his father, going in for a killing hit his charged but was deflected and pushed back. "What the?" His eyes widened at the one who blocked him.

The oldest boy who had been guarding the brothers and sisters was a dungeon capturer. He had red feathers going up his arms, matching his natural hair color, and a long sword that was the length of his body was in his hands. "That's far enough." He held out his sword, pointing at Nadeem. "I won't let you hurt my father!"

Nadeem glared, pointing his sword at Hakuyuu. "Then I'll go through you."

"You can try!" Raising the sword up he yelled out a commend. Directing his invisible attack on Nadeem, who was waiting for something to happen but realized too late that attack was already happened. "You can't fight it." Hakuyuu said, seeing his confusing. "I control the gravity around you. Right now you mind as well be holding up a house." He smirked. Nadeem growled, trying to fight with all his strength to stay on his feet.

"Pretty good kid." He admitted.

Hakuyuu smirked. "You haven't seen anything yet." He smirked.

"Time to finish this!" Hakuren yelled.

Nadeem turned to see the other boy, also a dungeon capturer in his full djinn equip. His hair turned golden yellow, what looked like spiked rocks covered his shoulders, arms, legs and back. Pointing his spear at Nadeem, he issued a command shooting spikes made of stone at him while Hakuyuu held him in place. Nadeem's eyes widened. Seeing the deadly projectiles coming at him, he was prepared for death when a strong wind, came from the sky, smashing the spikes into the ground, stopping the attack. Nadeem, Hakuyuu and Hakuren looked up to see Cassim and Sireen floating above them.

Sireen smiled at Nadeem. "Were you really planning to fight without us big brother?"

"I'm disappointed. I thought we all fought so well together." Cassim shook his head mockingly. "And just look at the trouble you got yourself into without us."

Nadeem laughed. "Then get down here and help me."

"All you had to do was asked big brother." Sireen floated to the ground, throwing a whirlwind at Hakuyuu, who used his gravity to redirect it, taking his focus off Nadeem, allowing him to escape. "Wow that was pretty good." She complemented.

Hakuyuu didn't respond, only observed the two new comers and Nadeem. Clearly more children of that man Alibaba. "This fight is between me and him." He pointed at Nadeem, who nodded.

"Fine by me." They charged each other, clashing swords midair.

Cassim stepped in front of Hakuren. "Looks like its you and me." His hair was gold and he carried no weapons, only hand golden metal gloves on his hands. Golden jewelry with green jewels adorned his wrist, ankles, neck and chest, even his shoulders.

"Looks like it, though you'll wish you picked another opponent!" The younger boy yelled, attacking the older boy relentlessly with projectiles. He only side stepped or dodged.

"Come on you can do better then that." Cassim mocked Hakuren.

"You're right I can." Slamming his spear down on the ground, the very earth attacked Cassim who had to maneuver quickly to avoid being crushed.

"Crap! That was close." He saw Hakuren create a giant hand out of the ground, smirking his let lose his attacked. Charging right at the hand, he charged his fist with bright light and slammed it into the rock hand intending to crush him. It shattered like glass under the might of his punch. Hakuren gasped at the pure strength.

"You might have guessed but my djinn gives me incredible strength and durability."

"You're not immortal!" Hakuren yelled, throwing more attacked at Cassim, who punched and dodged his way to Hakuren smashing the ground where he had been moments ago.

"Well this is no fun." Sireen sighed. "Who can I fight?"

"Me." Siri stepped up, having handed Satori to Rei.

"Be careful, Siri." Rei watched her sister face the golden-haired girl.

Sireen blinked curiously at the small black-haired girl with eyes just like hers. "I don't know who you are but you have a lot of guts walking up to face me. I respect that."

Sireen didn't respond, only activated her djinn equip. "Together we fight, reside in me and make me powerful! Zamor!" Blue flames engulfed her, changing her hair to purple with purple eyes. Sliver jewelry with purple stones covered her chest and arms. Her weapons were two big metal fans. "Get ready!" She called. Her fans were used to control lightning and make illusions.

Sireen smirked, pulling out her two curved swords, that she used to control wind and light. "Now this should be fun."

"Stop!" Morgiana screamed. Trying to stop all the fighting but it was no use, no one was listening. She watched in horror, her memories and mind a confused jumble. She couldn't properly piece it all together, she just knew that these were all her children and the two men fight to the death were both her husbands. How did this get so complicated? "Please stop!" She yelled again, but it was no use. Annoyed she smashed her foot into the ground, making a hole from her irritation at being ignored. Looking at Rei she waved her over. Rei listened keeping Satori covered as she ran to her mother. "Cover his ears." Morgiana ordered. Rei listened as Morgiana covered Rei's ears. Taking a deep breath, she let out a roar only used by the Fanalis. The high-pitched sounded echoed over the area stopping all battles by causing the opponents to cringe and cover their ears. Once it was over they looked to where the noise came from only to see Morgiana standing there glaring at everyone. "Enough!" She ordered. "No more fighting!"

Hakuryuu and Alibaba, lowered their weapons.

"Morgiana…" Alibaba took a step towards her, making her turn to him. Not quite understanding everything that was happening. Alibaba stared at his long lost wife longingly. She smiled sadly at him, it had been so long since she last saw him.

"Mother!" "Mom!" "We've missed you!" Nadeem, Cassim, and Sireen run to their mother, surrounding her in hugs. She wrapped each child in her embrace, unable to believe she had forgotten about them.

Looking over a Hakuryuu, he had his teeth clenched and spear clutched tight, looking to the ground in shame. She didn't fully understand what was going on, but she was going to find out.
