So I've actually had this chapter here done for a couple days now...but I'm away from home at the moment and only now am I able to get internet. Anyways I don't really have a whole lot to say, just that I'm srry for not being able to update as I normally would -_- And remember to review ^_^

I don't own Bleach

"He's like a drug for you, Bella."
-Eclipse the Twilight Series

A few days passed and we hadn't seen any evidence that the Soul Reapers were planning on following us. Grimmjow felt that he needed to go back to Hueco Mundo, leaving me and the baby here with my mother. Personally I thought he just wasn't ready to deal with the fact that it was no longer just about us. I didn't blame him, I also wasn't going to push him into being around. After all, he hadn't asked for any of this.

What I noticed in that time was that Kiara grew at an abnormal rate. When we got back, she was holding her head by herself the next morning. By the following morning, she was attempting to sit up, and had put on several ounces. Gran said that her growth rate would even out eventually. As it was she already looked like a six month old. Thankfully she took formula like a normal baby world, even though she was now on cereal as well.

I couldn't complain though. She had to be the most beautiful baby ever born. I'm sure all mother's thought that their child was the best looking, but my daughter was a bit different. Her vibrant blue hair curled just the tiniest bit, and her eye's were the brightest blue I've ever seen.

We were sitting in the middle of the floor playing, when my mom walked up and sat down beside us, picking Kiara up and sitting her in her lap. "What are your plans for today, Lexie? You two can't sit around here forever, the barrier isn't gonna last much longer with, Little Bit here sucking up it's energy. Will you come back to Florida with us, or are you planning on staying here?"

I shrugged, "As much as I want to stay here and finish my schooling, I've got other things to worry about." Taking Kiara from her, I stood up and walked in the kitchen.

"What about Grimmjow?" My mom asked following me into the kitchen.

"What about him?" I replied, placing my daughter in her highchair and glanced back at my mom.

"Well, is he coming back or are you left to do this on your own?"

"I don't know what he plans on doing." Sighing I closed my eyes and felt for him. At the moment he was extremely pissed off about something. Opening them again I looked down at the little girl we created together. "I'm not about to force him into something else that he didn't sign up for. If he wants to be here with us then he'll come back."

"Just like that, your gonna forget about everything that happened?" I could tell she was getting mad.

"No, I'll never forget what happened and what I went through to get to this point in time. But I'm not the kind of person who will force someone to do something they're not ready for."

"Well neither one of you were ready for this, and it wasn't as if you had the normal nine months of planning. But here you are while he's back wherever he came from doing only God knows what." She eye's were narrowed in anger.

I glared back at her. "Mom please don't talk about him like that, and God isn't the only who knows what he's doing. Remember that I know where he is all the time, not to mention I can feel his emotions as well."

She shrugged, "Either way, I think he should be here with you helping to take care of his child."

Tired of this subject, I changed it. "So when everyone heads in whatever direction they choose, what's Granny's plans?"

"Well I suppose she's going to go her own way. She may even go back into hiding for all we know."

I nodded and laid some sliced fruit on the little tray in front of Kiara. "Well I guess we'll head back to Florida with you and Gigi then. There really isn't any way we'd be able to live up here without any help. I'm not going to be able to live back in the dorms with Mia again. Kiara would attract too much unwanted attention."

"That's fine. You know that you'll always have a place to stay with me. Your brother and Beth are staying with me as well with baby Conner, what's another little one to add to the mix?"

"Yeah," I said a little disappointed. I really wanted to finish my schooling here, and didn't enjoy moving back home with my mother and brother. I liked living on my own, but now that Kiara was here, I wasn't going to have that option. I needed to do what was best for the two of us. "Can you keep an eye on here while I go get what little stuff we have ready?"

"Of coarse. Go get do whatever you need and by the time you're done Gigi and I should be ready to teleport us back home."

"Thanks," Walking out of the kitchen I went up to the second where we were sleeping and starting to pack up the little things that we had. It was much, just a few clothes of mine that Gigi went back and got after I was taken to the Soul Society, and the baby clothes that my mom bought for Kiara the day we came back.

I was so out of it mentally that I didn't realize someone was watching my from the window, until they cleared the throats grabbing my attention. Snapping my head up I glared over at the little white haired Captain. Instantly my body stiffened. "What are you doing here? How did you find us, there is a protective shield all around this place."

He shrugged and jumped into the room, crossing his arms as he leaned against the wall. "You shield dissolved an hour ago. The babies spiritual energy popped up on our radar right after."

"I won't let you take her back there." I said standing up. Ready to face off with him if I needed.

He shook his head. "I'm not here to take your baby back."

"Then what are you here for?"

"To send you a warning." His turquoise eye's bored into me. "The head Captain has issued an order to kill the three of you on sight the second anyone of you become hostile towards humans or Soul Reapers."

I crossed my arms. "So basically the moment we do anything towards someone human or Soul Reaper, we're on your hit list. What happens if we're just defending ourselves?"

He sighed. "Then I'd suggest that you and your Espada try and keep yourselves as in check as possible." I watched as his eye's looked around the tiny room. "Where is the Espada anyways?"

"He went back to Hueco Mundo that evening we got back here. I haven't seen him since." I looked away from the little Captain, not wanting him to see how upset I actually was not having him here to help out.

"Do you know if he's planning on returning here to the World of the Living?"

"No, I don't know." Angrily I kneeled back down and started shoving my belongs into the black backpack. With everything in, I stood up and stared down at him. "I'm going back to my mother's home in Florida with the baby. He can find me there if he wants." Turning around I started back out the door.

A hand wrapped around me wrist, and I looked back to see him holding on. I was surprised by how strong his grip really was for such a small kid. "I'm sorry that you have to do this on your own, I really am. But you still have to be careful about her strength. Even if its accidental, you could be once again facing a showdown with the Soul Society. Don't let that happen, I won't be able to save the two of you a second time."

I yanked my wrist out of his grasp. "I don't need your protection. I'm more then capable of taking care of myself and my daughter."

His eye's narrowed. "Don't be an idiot Alexis, you need to stay out of their sights. The 12th divison Captain is still wanting to get his damn hands on your daughter. You made one mistake and she'll see the end of his scalpel."

Fear ran through me along with anger. I would never allow her to be back in his hands. I'd die first. "Don't worry, I won't do anything to bring unwanted attention to us. Now I've got to go back downstairs. We're fixing to leave." Turning back around I walked out of the room and into the hallway.

"Alexis, wait." I glanced back at him. "I feel more then your daughter's strong spiritual energy within this cabin. Who are they?"

I smirked. "That would be my other family members. My mother, grandmother and great grandmother. In our family, the women posses different types of powers. So warn your higher ups that they should rethink attacking me and my own within the reach of my family."

I left him standing there with a look of confusion on his face. Walking back down the stairs I saw my mom standing there with Kiara in her arms. I could see the look of concern on her face. "That Captain was telling the truth. Should either of you go so far as to flick a human or Soul Reaper, they're going to be on you like white on rice."

I shrugged and took my daughter from her. Smiling as she put her wet hand against my cheek. "If they come I'll be ready for them. But I'm not going to be a push over because I fear them taking her away from me again."

She sighed and nodded. "Alright, are you ready?"

"Yeah, I'm ready. It's not like I've got a lot of stuff to take with me." Readjusting Kiara, I went on. "When we get back I'm going to need to buy her some clothes that will fit her. She's already outgrown the ones you bought."

"Yes, well suspect she's going to be outgrowing clothes for sometime to come." Nodding towards the front door, she said, "Gigi is waiting for us outside."

Following her outside, I saw my grandmother sitting on the top step, she looked back at us when we walked out. She stood up and gave a slight smile. "Are you three ready?"

We both nodded and took a hold of either one of her hands. Looking back at the cabin, I hoped that Grimmjow would come back to me soon. I really missed him right now. In a blight flash of light we disappeared, a few moments later we arrived in the backyard of my mother's house.

With a heavy sigh, I let go of Gigi's hand and walked into the house. I was surprised when I walked into the main house and saw my brother sitting there with baby Conner sitting in his lap. When I stepped into the room, he glanced up and looked between me and the little girl in my arms.

"My son is older then your daughter, and she looks older then him. Why couldn't I get the inhuman baby. He could be walking by now, if not talking. Then we wouldn't have to guess at what he wants." He shook his head and looked back down at his son.

I smiled, glad that he wasn't mad. Or at least not showing it. Sitting down on the couch, I sat Kiara down on the floor. "Where's Beth at?"

"She's at the store getting stuff for dinner tonight." He nodded towards the baby. "So where's your man at? Shouldn't he be here helping?"

"He needed to go back to Hueco Mundo. I think he just wasn't ready for this. He'll come around sooner or later, I hope."

"You know you're going to have a hard time going out with her and that blue hair. She'll grab a lot of attention that you're not wanting."

I smirked, "And that's why I have a beanie for her to wear." Standing I asked, "Can you keep an eye on her some a moment? I need to go change my clothes before heading up to the mall." When he nodded, I thanked him and went to my room where I threw the backpack on the bed and changed into a clean pair of jeans and a black shirt. Walking back out I saw my brother sitting on the floor with Conner in his lap and Kiara sitting in front of them, trying to touch his little cheek.

Smiling I lifted her up, instantly she started to fuss. "I'm sorry, Little Bit, but we've got to go and get you some clothes that fit. You can play with your cousin when we get back."

Changing her clothes, I looked over to my brother. "Mind if I barrow your car seat for her? That's another thing that I need to buy."

He shook his head. "Nah, go for it. I won't need it for another few hours." Digging through his pocket, he threw his keys to the jeep at me. "Just be careful there and don't forget to cover her hair."

"Will do. I should be back in an hour." Loading her into the jeep, I climbed in a drove off to the mall. Hoping that we wouldn't draw too much attention to ourselves. Then again, my daughter had bright blue hair. That wasn't exactly something one saw every day.

Not too much going on in this chapter, but Grimmy will be returning in the next that I'm currently working on. Hopefully by the time I get home I'll have it ready to go and be able to post it.

Until next time...Remember to review ^^
