Harley's P.O.V
"That's impossible. My father's dead" I said, stepping back away from the man that claims to be my father. But for some reason I knew that deep down he was telling the truth. He looked so familiar, so like me. My father stepped into the house and closer to me.
"Don't even think about going near her" Grimmjow growled. My father looked over at Grimmjow and smirked.
"It's nice to see you again, Grimmjow" my father said. I looked at Grimmjow confused.
"You know him?" I asked Grimmjow in disbelief. Grimmjow looked over at me, a sympathetic look on his face.
"I didn't know he was your father until now" Grimmjow said. I shook my head back and forth.
"I don't understand. How do you know him? How the hell are you still alive? What the hell is going on? I'm so lost" I started to ramble. I grabbed my head. I could feel the tears start to form in my eyes. I didn't understand anything that was going on. Just how in the world did my father survive, he was supposed to be dead. Kisuke told me that he had died that day, that day that he murdered my mother. But how is that possible if he is standing right here in my living room. And how in the hell did Grimmjow know him, just who was Grimmjow really. My head started to spin, so many questions that I needed to be answered, so much confusion.
"Harley, you have to calm down. Gather yourself up. You're not safe with your father here and you can't afford to be distracted. What if he ended up attacking you or something like that?" my panther asked. I closed my eyes. She was right. I know that she is. I took a deep breath and reopened my eyes, looking at my father.
"How did you survive?" I asked him. My father looked at me and smiled.
"Let's just say I had some help from my son" he said. I gave him a suspicious look.
"How in the hell did you get help from your son? You don't even have one. Mom only gave birth to me before you killed her" I asked. My father chuckled.
"Oh my dear, Harley, there's so much that you don't even know. That woman that I killed wasn't even your real mother" my father said. My panther and I both growled.
"Yes she was" I said. I could feel the anger inside me begin to rise. My father's chuckled turned into laughter, making the anger in me become more and more heated. "Shut the fuck up" I said, my voice as cold as ice. I felt my spiritual pressure rise; the lightening from my Zanpakuto that I keep with me at all times began to crackle around me. My hair started to flutter in an invisible wind. Grimmjow looked at me, wide eye. My panther began to roar, it was the roar she always does when a fight was about to happen. My father stopped laughing and looked at me seriously.
"You honestly think that you can take me? You haven't even mastered your powers yet and most importantly you don't know everything that you can do" My father said. I saw a Zanpakuto, his Zanpakuto manifest in his hands. He unsheathed his sword and pointed it at me. "But if it's a fight that you want, then it's a fight that you get. Just don't whine and cry when I kick your ass, Harley" my father said. My Zanpakuto manifested in my right hand, I unsheathed it and pointed it towards him.
"Actually it's you who's going to be on your knees, whining and crying to me, father" I said.
Kisuke's P.O.V
"What the hell is going on? Why did Harley's spiritual pressure rise like that? And who's with her. I can only recognize Grimmjow, but I recognize the other one with her" Ikakku asked. I looked over at Tessi. He looked over at me and nodded my head. I walked outside, telling everyone to stay here. Tessi soon joined me afterwards.
"Why now would he make contact with her?" Tessi asked. I looked over at him seriously.
"That doesn't matter right now. What matters is protecting Harley" I said. Tessi gave me one last look before nodding his head in agreement.
"So that's her father, huh? He seems pretty powerful" A familiar voice said. I looked up at my roof, Youirchi was looking down at me seriously.
"He is powerful, really powerful. That's why we need to hurry" I said. Yourichi gave me a questionable look.
"I thought that you said Harley was powerful enough to handle him" Yourichi said questionably as she jumped down from the roof and landed beside me.
"She is, she can be, but not right now. Not when she doesn't know who she truly is" I said. Yourichi gave me a questionable look.
"And who is she really?" Yourichi asked. I looked away from Yourichi.
"This isn't the time to discuss that. Now let's go. Tessi you have what we need, right?" I asked. Tessi nodded his head and revealed the box with the seal on it. Yourichi gave both of us a questionable look.
"What's that?" She asked. I looked at her seriously.
"A gift from Harley's mother, Harley's real mother" I said. I didn't give Yourichi time to ask or say anything; I quickly headed over to Harley's house. I just hope that I'm not too late.
Shinji's P.O.V
"Shinji, that spiritual pressure seems really familiar. And I'm getting a bad feeling" Love said. I stopped what I was doing and started to focus on the spiritual pressure that was with Harley and Grimmjow. I dropped the plate that was in my hands.
"How in the hell did he find her?" I asked myself. I quickly ran over to where my sword was, grabbing it. Everyone ran to where I was.
"How did who find her?" Love asked. I looked at Love seriously.
"Harley's father" I said. Everyone looked at me questionably.
"I don't understand. I thought that he was killed" Lisa said. I looked away from her.
"That's the story that I was told too until I learned the truth. But I had to keep with the story so that I could help protect Harley and make sure that her father couldn't find her. After all if everyone knew the truth then Harley would be easy to find for him. Listen we can't talk right now, we have to hurry before he tries to kill her" I said. Love stepped in my way, stopping me.
"We'll help, but after this you have a lot of explaining to do, Shinji" Love said, seriously. I looked at me and smiled.
"I know that" I said. I ran past Love and everyone and hurried towards Harley, everyone following behind me.
Ichigo's P.O.V
I felt Harley's spiritual pressure rise. I could sense that Grimmjow was there with her, but I couldn't tell who the other person was. I didn't recognize it at all. I wanted to get up and leave to help Harley and to see what was going on, but my dad made me stay here and watch my sisters. Now that I think about it he seemed like he was in a rush and he looked really worried. I've never seen him like this before.
Ichigos Dad's P.O.V
"Damnit, I thought that Kisuke said she would be safe here. I thought that he was making sure that he wasn't going to find her. Damn that Kisuke" I said to myself out loud as I rushed towards Harley's house. "I just hope that I'm not too late" I said as I picked up speed.
Harley's P.O.V
Blood started to run down my arm. My breathing was uneven and I was sweating badly. "Come on, Harley, go into your Bankai form before I really do kill you" my father said. He was standing a few feet away from me, staring at me, smiling.
"Now why would I do that? It would be a waste to go into my Bankai form and use it on someone like you" I said. I was telling the truth it would be a waste, but I really didn't want to use my Bankai form on him. The truth was I lost control the last time that I used it. I haven't fully been able to control it yet, but I'm close. After all I've been training more and more so that I can fully control it. My father frowned.
"Fine, since you won't use your Bankai then I guess I won't use my sword" my father said, he sheathed his sword. I looked at him confused.
"Why won't you use your sword? You do realize that now you're just an easier target" I said. My father chuckled.
"Like I said before, Harley, there's so much that you don't even know" my father said. Before I knew it he was in front of me, hand around my throat. "But don't worry I'll explain everything in time. I promise. I would explain things right now, but it seems like a lot of unwanted company is going to be joining us soon. So I must take my leave. But don't forget Harley, I will be back for you" My father said. Before I knew it everyone was here; Kisuke, Tessi, Yourichi, the vizords, even Ichigo's dad. My father threw me to the ground and faced everyone. "It's so nice to see you again, Kisuke, Tessi, and Isshin" my father said. Kisuke smirked at my father.
"Yes it is good to see you, isn't it?" Kisuke said, sarcastically. My father chuckled.
"So I see you haven't told Harley anything" My father said. I looked at Kisuke suspiciously. Kisuke looked at me with a look that said I'm sorry. My father chuckled even more. "I would love to stay and chat; you know catch up and everything. But I really must be on my way" my father said.
"You're not going anywhere" Isshin said, seriously. I noticed him reach for his sword. My father looked at him seriously.
"You honestly think that you can stop me. A mere soul reaper" my father said. He started to laugh. My father turned around and looked at me seriously. "Like I said, I will be back for you" my father said.
"Like hell you will" Love said, running towards my father with his sword drawn. My father quickly turned around. Next thing I knew Love was on his knees, grabbing his head, and screaming. Just like Grimmjow did when he pissed me off, just like what happened to me.
"It was you who attacked me" I said. My father looked over his shoulders.
"Yes I attacked you. I had to give you a warning that I was coming" my father said. I growled loudly.
"Now I understand a lot" I said. My father gave me a questionable look.
"Oh?" he asked.
"You were the reasons for a lot of things, the reason that I had to move from town to town. The reason that the people that I cared about got hurt" I said. A smiled formed on my father's face.
"And you now just realized that?" He started to laugh. "Yes I was the reason why you had to move from town to town. I was the reason that the people you care about got hurt. I remember that boy, oh what was his name, Dachi, and he was your first boyfriend. I sent him a message saying stay away from you or he would get hurt, but he was really stubborn. Too bad someone like him had to die so young because of you" my father said. My heart fell to my stomach. I felt tears roll down my cheeks.
"You were the one that killed him?" I asked. My father looked at me seriously.
"Yes I am and I'm the one that killed the other people that you ever cared about. Don't you get it Harley; I did what I had to because I had to. An-"
"You didn't have to kill innocent people. They didn't deserve any of that, they didn't deserve to die. And especially because of me" I screamed at him. I could feel it, my power beginning to get out of control.
"You're wrong; they did have to die because of you. You didn't deserve to be happy and because if I didn't do what I did then your powers would have never unlocked. I did it to help you, Harley" my father said.
"To help me, how is killing the people that I care about fucking helping me" I screamed. The ground beneath my feet began to crack; the air around me grew thick. My father's smile grew.
"Like I said, I will explain things, but not now. I will be back though" My father said. He turned his head and looked at everyone. "And if any of you get in my way, I'll kill you. You're lucky that I haven't killed any of you yet" my father said. I was about to attack him before he disappeared. Once I felt his spiritual pressure disappear, I fell to my knees.
"Harley" someone said. I felt someone pick me up and cradle me in their arms. "Everything's going to be alright, Harley. I promise" the voice said. I didn't know who it was. The tears that kept running down my cheeks blinded me. Next thing I knew I was in my bed, the person that carried me took off my shoes and placed my blanket over me. "I won't let him harm you, Harley, not again" the person said. I started to blink fast, clearing my vision.
"Why did you lie to me and tell me that he was dead, Kisuke?" I asked. Kisuke looked down at me, sadness all over his face, even in his eyes.
"Because I had to protect you, plus your mother said not to tell you until the time was right" Kisuke explained. I looked at him questionably.
"My mother didn't know how bad of a person my father was until he used his experiment on us" I said. Kisuke frowned even more.
"I'm not talking about that mother, Harley. I'm talking about your real mother" Kisuke said. I glared at him.
"She was my real mother" I snapped. Kisuke put both of his hands in front of him in a defensive position.
"Yes she raised you, but she wasn't your biological mother" Kisuke said. I growled. I was ready to snap again until my panther spoke.
"Harley that is enough, why don't you get some rest for now and then let Kisuke explain things later?" my panther suggested. I sighed. I closed my eyes and took a deep breath, calming me down.
"Fine" I said. I opened my eyes and looked at Kisuke, seriously. "I'm going to get some rest right now. But tomorrow we're going to have a little talk. You, me, Tessi, Isshin, and everyone else who knows about what really happened" I said. Kisuke gave me a serious look, but nodded.
"You're right, we do need to talk. So tomorrow evening we will talk. After all you still have to train with Grimmjow to get your panther under control" Kisuke said. I sighed. I had forgotten about that.
"Okay, that works" I said. Kisuke said his goodbyes and left. But speaking of Grimmjow, he had a lot of explaining to do, especially since he knows my father. I guess we will have to talk, one on one, tomorrow about it.
