Kai sat by the window as he watched the sun set over the sea.
'Kaa-san and Tou-san have been gone a long time.' He thought. Earlier, His aunt Kokoa came by to check on him…
Flashback…
"Aunty Kokoa, Do you know if Kaa-san and Tou-san are ok?" He asked the orange haired vampire.
"I don't, but Nee-sama will be ok. And your Tou-san is strong, I'll give him that." She said. Kai smiled in relief. Kokoa looked down at her watch and saw the time.
"Got to go Kai, I'll be back in a few hours." She told the small boy as she kissed him on the cheek and ran out the door…
End Flashback…
Kai has been alone for many hours now. He was beginning to worry about his parents and his aunt.
'Maybe they are taking a nap somewhere.' He reasoned in his 5 year old mind. But even if he was childish, he knew what things like death were. As he sat there thinking, he didn't hear the door open and the person that came through it…

Ichigo, Deion and Moka all stood in fear as they faced the men who are responsible for so many deaths of their friends and lovers.
"I'll ask once more, hand over the girl." Aizen said smoothly.
"What do you want with Moka?" Deion asked.
"That is none of you concern shinigami." Juhabach said as he drew his sword.
"If you hand her over, we may spare your lives." He told them. Deion turned to Moka.
"Run." He told her. She scoffed,
"I'm not going to run like a coward." She said pridefully.
"Not my point. They want you for some reason, get to Ichimaru now." He said before looking back at his most hated enemies.
"I'm not going to let you take her!" he declared.
"Oh, scared for the mother of your child?" Aizen mocked, Making but Moka and Deion go wide eyed.
"Yes, that's right. I have always known about your trip. So did you brother who came to save you that night. I also know about your child." He said smugly.
"If you dare lay a hand on my son, I will end you!" Moka spat as she tried to attack, only for Deion and Ichigo to hold her back.
"Such big words from such a little girl." Juhabach said as he turned towards the army.
"Get them." He commanded. A huge roar of battle cries filled the air as the combined forces began their charge.
"Run?" Deion asked Ichigo.
"Run." He said as they both started to panic. The two shinigami turned on a dime, with Deion grabbing Moka by her waist, and took off running as a huge volley of arrows, ceros, and other attacks flew by their heads…

Gin Ichimaru watched as his second in command, Kokoa, came back from checking on Kai.
"You seem down." He said to the vampire.
"Aren't you very observant." She scolded him in an annoyed tone.
"You should smile, it's not like we have seen battle yet." He told her.
"But, Onee-sama is out there fighting and I'm stuck here with you!" She nearly shouted as the other students look over towards the leaders of the battle group.
"Ahah Ahahahah!" Came the screaming of Deion and Ichigo as they and the rest of both their battle groups ran towards them.
"What the hell?" almost everyone, including Ichimaru and Kokoa said as they watched the come out of the forest.
"Looks like they saw a ghost or something." Ichimaru said. Deion, with Moka still in his arms, made it to Ichimaru's side.
"Aizen…*pant*…. Quincy king…*Pant*… coming this way!" He wheezed out.
"You can let go of me?" Moka snapped at him.
"And why did we run?"
"Because Ichigo is out of power to go bankai and I'm still injured because of that bastard." He shouted as he pointed at the tied up Tsukune.
"Fuck you!" he snapped.
"Not now so shut the fuck up!" Deion shot back, meeting the others sweat drop.
"What the hell are we still standing here? Aizen is coming!" Deion roared. Ichimaru's eyes opened in shock.
"Why the hell did you lead him back here?" He exclaimed. Both Deion and Ichigo thought for a moment.
"Oh shit!" they shouted. Ichimaru sighed as he walked toward the edge of the grounds.
"Bankai. Kamishini no Yari." He said, pointing his sword towards the forest. The blade extended beyond anyone dreams…
Meanwhile…
The attacking force of Aizen's army charged after the two shinigami who fled. But as they made their approach, a bright light came out of nowhere, killing hundreds almost instantly…
Back with the others…
Students stared in awe as the blade came back just as fast as it was sent out.
"That takes care of some of them." Ichimaru said with a smile.
"Yeah, but for how long?" Ichigo asked. Moka then turned to Deion,
"I need to go and protect Kai!" she said.
"Go, I got everything here." She nodded and made her way back to her dorm…

One hour earlier…
Aizen and Juhabach waited for news from the battlefield.
"Do you think they were successful?" the Quincy king asked.
"Only time will tell my friend, but we are dealing with two powerful shinigami and a few Youkai. It shouldn't take long." Aizen said as he sipped his tea. Just then, a injured Naomi appeared in the camp.
"What happened to you?" Juhabach asked with a raised eyebrow.
"They killed Mei. They are stronger then we thought." She explained.
"Don't fear, it was all part of plan." Aizen said simply.
"All part of the plan? MY FRIEND IS DEAD BECAUSE OF YOUR DAMN PLAN!" Naomi screamed.
"Calm yourself!" Juhabach shouted at her.
"This is not the time to let emotion control you. Besides, you have failed me in your mission."
"But my king, this bankai didn't have the effect I wanted on him! He overcame it, I almost won when one of his allies turned on him, but the vampire bitch saved him." She told them.
"Juhabach, calm down your servant, she has done what we wanted. She brought the girl out of hiding." Aizen said.
"But, I have another task for you my dear, this requires a little stealth and care for our target…"
XpagebreakX
Moka ran as fast as she could, then she felt a gust of wind fly by her.
"You can go a little faster if I carried you." Deion said when he stopped her.
"I'm almost there, and I thought you were staying to fight."
"I just as concerned about Kai as you are." He said. The two parents continued on their way to their child.
"I never told you what Kai's first words where, did I?" she asked.
"No, is it something I should know?"
"Yes, his words were 'Where is Tou-san?'" she said. It was then that Deion finally understood why she was so angry at him.
"You were never angry at me for leaving you, but for not being there for Kai." He said. Moka just kept her mind off what he said as they made it to the Dorms, but seconds before they could make it inside…
"BOOOOOOOOOOM!" the whole place exploded right before their eyes…
Back with Ichigo and the others…
The battle has started up once more as the two sides met head on in front of the school.
"Don't these guys ever learn?" Ichigo asked himself as he fired nameless Getsugas at the waves of enemies.
"Hey Ichigo, that Aono kid is missing." Gin Ichimaru pointed out.
"We don't have time to deal with him at the moment, he going to go after Deion anyways so let him-" Ichigo was cut off when he heard a huge Explosion off where the girl's dorm are.
"Oh no, that can't be good." He said. He was just about to head over there when he felt the presents of an old foe.
"Aizen…" He growled as he took off to find the former captain, with Ichimaru at his tail…
Back to Deion and Moka…
"KKKKAAAAIIII!" Moka let out a blood curding scream as the building fell. Deion stood shocked to his core.
'That did not happen, that did not happen!' he screamed in his mind. Moka started to run up to the inferno, but Deion held her back.
"NO! LET ME GO, I HAVE TO SAVE HIM! I HAVE TO SAVE MY BABY!" she shouted at him.
"Moka, you could get hurt, let me go and get him." He tried to reason with her. They were scared, very scared of what may have happened to their small child. Moka for the first time in many years, broke down and cried. Deion also had a few tears falling down his face.
'I'm too late, I couldn't even protect my own son.'
"The pain of lost must be great for two young parents." A voice said. Both of them snapped their heads to the source of the voice. Aizen and Juhabach stood in front of them.
"You… Monsters!" Deion roared as he got and charged at them.
"I WILL KILL YOU! BOTH OF YOU!" he boomed as his sword flew out of his sheath.
"GETSUGA TENSHO!" the amount of reishi he poured into that one was near bankai level as it lite up the area, out shinning the sun. breathing heavily, Deion stood with his released Zanpakto stuck in the ground. Moka looked at him as she looked at the power he unleash.
'See, he cares more than you think inner-chan. He loves us.' Outer Moka said from the rosary. Out of the smoke for the attack, Aizen and the Quincy king stood behind a badly damaged Dankū.
"You have become very strong Deion, I had to put up two to protect us." Aizen said with a smile on his face.
"Aizen!" Ichigo's voice rang out as he appeared from a flash step. Ichigo took a look around and saw what remained of the girl's dorm.
"Deion, did you-"
"No, we were too late." He said. Ichigo balled his fist before turning to Aizen.
"You will pay for that." He declared.
"Pay for what Ichigo Kurosaki?" then, Gin Ichimaru showed up.
"It's been awhile captain Aizen." He said. Gin gave him his trademark smile before turning toward his allies.
"You guys just going to sit there or are we going to fight them?" without even waiting, Deion charged at the two in a blind rage.
"You kill my friends, family, lovers, AND NOW MY SON!" he then unleashed Hanko's bankai then tried to step on the two foes. But the foot was blocked by the King who held up the bankai of the old man.
"Such a temper this one has Aizen, and he was once you subordinate?" He asked.
"So was Ichimaru here, who I'm surprised, is still alive. But now we must be going since we got one thing that we came for."
"What the hell do you mean by that?" Moka asked, finally finding the strength to talk.
"It was you we want, but we got something just as good." He said.
"Tou-san! Kaa-san!" Deion and Moka both turned to see Naomi Holding a scared Kai.
"I hope you don't mind. He is the son of a vampire and a shinigami, very rare for one to exist." Aizen said. Deion has had enough of Aizen's tricks and lies.
"Let my son go now!" he demanded.
"No, but don't worry, we will that good care of him. But for now, Juhabach, if you may?"
"Of course. Everything in the universe turns to ash, Ryūjin Jakka." He called out as a wall of flames engulfed the area.
"If you want your son back, you must come to Las Noches. You must bring the girl's rosary and come yourselves. Only then will I give back the child." Aizen said as he turned to open a Garganta.
"Farwell Deion, Ichigo Kurosaki, Gin Ichimaru, and Moka Akashiya." With that, the two left, soon followed by Naomi who had a grin on her face.
"If you don't come by within one month, I will kill him." She said with a giggle and disappeared from view…

The Hours after the fighting were cold as everyone began to pick up the pieces. The injured were moved inside the main building to be treated. The Dead were moved to the forest and buried, both friend and foe. Ichigo and gin handle the Konso of the soul. Deion just held Moka as she cried. They had put back on her Rosary, but even so, both of them cried.
"I will get him back, they won't take our son away." Deion said softly as he kissed her forehead. Moka could only let out the pain as she started to cry even harder.
"Why can't we both bring him back?" she said with a hiccup.
"They want you, so that will just be giving them what they-"
"This is our son, please, just take me with you." She begged.
"…" Deion gave her a blank stare.
"Don't you dare say I'm weak! I will be strong." She exclaimed.
"Ok, but you must not be afraid to kill. This is the life of Kai, and he to us is more than anyone else." He told her. The couple then got up to join the mourning of the dead. The battle was a success from a tactical view, but to Deion and Moka, it was a Hollow victory…
XpagebreakX
After finding a place to sleep, Deion put Moka to Bed before heading over to see Ichigo.
"Master, it will be alright." Judo said as her human form appeared next to him.
"No, I lost my son Judo, my own flesh and blood. I can't be called a warrior anymore."
"And why not?" Hanko asked.
"I let him get taking and I was near powerless to save him as he called for me!" Deion snapped at his other partner.
"To me, that makes you more of a warrior. You are going to fight, fight for your family, fight for the ones you love. Fight to protect!" Hanko said as he placed his hands on Deion's shoulders, shaking. Deion just looked down to the ground.
"I can't protect anyone, Not Momo, Rukia, Rias, Akeno, Nel, Senna, or any of the others, not Toshiro, and now not even my son. I just fail."
"Don't you dare say that! You have saved them as many times as I can count. You will save Kai, I can see it in your heart. I also heard that song you sung to him before." She said. Deion was about to say something, but he made it to where Ichigo was.
"We shall finish this later." He told his swords.
"Deion, how is Moka doing?" Ichigo asked.
"She is fine now, she cried herself to sleep." He replied.
"I have to get stronger, even with my power at full, I was no match for them."
"Then I have a plan." Ichigo said.
"We have a month to train, I was thinking we spend a few hours in the Dangai."
"But who is going to hold back the restrictive currents?" Deion asked.
"I got that." Gin said. Deion then thought about it.
"When do we start?" he asked.
"Tomorrow…"
XpagebreakX
Kai sat in a lonely dark cell. He was scared. He had been taking away from his parents. Kai looked around the darkness. The he remembered the song his dad sung to and looked over his shoulder, But Deion was not there. He began to cry,
'You said just look over your shoulder, why aren't here to hold me Tou-san?' he thought as he rocked himself back and forth. Kai was alone, and has no idea how to find his way home.
"Be strong…"

AN: This was not bad, but I don't think it was that good either. Chapter 14 has a sad ending and sort of a mystery with who or what said that to Kai…
From now on, I going to take my time on this story, I can work on the others no problem, but this one is my hardest.
Once more, i used a song. If you can guess it, good for you, you get a cookie!
Thanks to Urufushinigami for reviewing once more!
Next chapter: Let the training begin! Count down to the end.
Read and Review Please, I do read all of so help me make this story great!
Deion: …
See ya!
