Celeste paced back and forth in front of the window to Sojun's hospital room. She stopped and looked into the window. She looked at Kendra as she listened to his breathing and then check his vitals. She was taking notes when she caught Celeste looking in. She smiled and placed one finger up to let her know that she will be out to speak with her soon.

"He is going to be fine," Retsu said as she walked behind Celeste. Celeste turned and hugged her as they both started to cry. "We made it through the war and we made it through rearing our children. Sojun is a very tough person. He is going to make it through this also. Besides, he knows you would kill him if he were to die."

For the first time, Celeste started to smile and laugh. Uryu walked up to the two women and hugged them both.

"I need for you two to hold it down. We have a patient trying to sleep in there." He put his arms around Celeste and hugged her. "Kendra said that Uncle Sojun is too stubborn to die."

Celeste eyes watered as she hugged Uryu. Kendra came out of the room and spoke to the group.

"Aunt Celeste, he is resting comfortably. I decided to keep him semi-conscious state until his fever goes down. But if you are ready, let's get you in there. I think Uncle Sojun will know you are there. From what my father-in-law said, we will be moving him out soon."

"Thank you Kendra. Thank you for helping Sojun."

"Anything for my family," Kendra said. She turned and gave Uryu a kiss. "Will my husband escort me to the cafeteria for dinner?"

"Let's make it a date," Uryu said as he smiled at Kendra. We will stop back before we turn in. And give us a call when Byakuya and Kaname get here. Good Night." Uryu and Kendra walked down the hall hand in hand.

Ruyken sat at the desk staring into the computer. He was reading the notes Sojun had left for him. He spoke to Gina and 'The Boss' to get a fix on the interview of Hanna. Kaname's notes were the most detail because he was the only one that was on the inside with Aizen, along with Sojun.

He spoke with Celeste to get an update on Sojun. She told him that he was still asleep. Kanae sat across from him, listening for an update. He asked to speak with Retsu. When she got the phone, she went to the corner of the room so Celeste could not hear. Ruyken and Kanae asked about Ikkaku and his state of mind.

"He told me he was in a good place now. He and Kyoraku and Sojun spoke about this a while back. He and Kyoraku are on their way to you and Kanae with back up."

Ruyken sighed and started to give out orders. "I was going to wait until Sojun was wake but I need for you and Kendra to get Sojun and the family to move out in six hours to the Alpha safe compound. Byakuya and Uryu will take lead. I need the whole area evacuated with in twelve hours."

Kanae was on her phone speaking with Kendra. She knew that The Boss was talking with her son. When they both ended their calls, Kanae pulled out her Glock 19 for inspection. She pulled out a second one and did the same inspection. Then from her back holster she pulled out a Glock 17 and inspected it. Ruyken looked at her and asked her why three guns. She placed it on the table and reminded him that this one is his Glock. She stated that she was holding it for him. He smiled and then chuckled because he knew she always had his back.

"I will be glad when this is over. I am going to do a check with the guards on Hanna and Yumichika." She left the office as Gina and Kaname remotely were helping Ruyken understand and get up to speed and prep for his interview with Hanna and Yumichika. Gina told Ruyken that Yumichika will be a harder than Hanna because "Yumi may not believe you. Remember, she will fight back. Due to her fighting skills, she will be more dangerous than Hanna.

"What is the game plan?" Kanae came back into the office. She spoke to Gina and Kaname over the computer.

Ruyken looked at his wife and spoke to the office. "Sojun gave us everything we need to close. The thing that bothers me is he was willing to end his life for his family. I am angry with him but he knew that we would pick up the pieces to finish. I feel as though he is protecting Hanna from something." Kaname produce a page from a diary. Gina, Ruyken and Kanae read the passage on the screen.

"Oh my God," Gin whispered, "how could Sojun keep this from us?"

"It is not Sojun's handwriting, it's . . ."

"Sosuke's. Sosuke Aizen, Senior. Hanna's brother." Ruyken continued look at the page as he spoke. "Kaname, did Sojun give you the whole journal?"

Kaname was a little hesitant when he answered. "He gave me and Byakuya a copy. Just in case we needed it to use against the Aizen's for control of the Kuchiki Corporation. I am sending it to you now." A pop up came in his email.

"Kaname, I got it." It was silence for about a minute. "Is Byakuya with you?"

"He is on line with me."

"This is for the both of you. I am aware of this journal. All of us. Me, Sojun, Cecil, Gin and Kyoraku. Sosuke Senior gave it to us before he disappeared. He always wanted to protect Hanna. At this time, please do not say anything about this anyone. This includes you too, Gina. When we finish, radio silence until the interview. The Boss will give you permission to watch the interview."

With that, the call ended.

Kanae came and place her arms around Ruyken. "I know you guys promised Sosuke to watch after her. She is messed up in the worst way. We have to end this now. If not, our children will have end this. It is not their responsibility.

Buzzer went off. Ruyken answered and hung up the phone. "Kyoraku and Ikkaku are here."

Kyoraku came in the office. He hugged Kanae. "Hey Sis."

Kanae hugged him backed. "Did our little Bro get off okay?"

"Yeah. Byakuya and Kaname got there just in time to get Gin and Bigan to the family off. Kaname and Rangiku went with Sojun and Celeste. Ukitake and Retsu are going back to home base for a few to catch The Boss up and then make their way back to Sojun and Celeste."

He turned to Ruyken who was reading off the computer screen. Kyoraku leaned on the desk and asked Ruyken if he is on his 'A' game. He leaned back in the chair and smiled.

"I going to get some sleep. Get everything ready and set Hanna up in room number one in about six hours." Ruyken left the desk and sat on the couch and was soon asleep. Kanae watched her husband who was more exhausted than tired. She found a blanket and put it over her husband. She went and sat next to Kyoraku and placed her head on his shoulder.

"You want to talk or sleep?"

"Both," she laughed. "Well, Big Bro, how was our Lil Bro, and tell me the truth."

Kyoraku sighed before he spoke. "He fought a good fight. You know that he always liked the hand to hand combat. Sojun is a fighter but like all of us, we are tired. But he pushed himself to complete exhaustion like my brother-in- law over there. You know how he is, always protecting family."

"You know, he seemed to have gone into overdrive when you got shot."

"I think what sent him over was me getting shot and . . .," Kyoraku paused, "I know what pushed him over the edge was Kaname was with me."

Kanae looked at him and said, "Do you think Hanna knew about Kaname or do you think someone found out about him?"

"I don't think so. Sojun and Celeste tried their best to shield both him and Byakuya. And you know how our brother feel about all of the children involved."

He felt Kanae fall asleep. He got up and was getting a blanket for her. She woke up and told him to prep for tomorrow. She pointed to the computer and pulled the blanket over her shoulders. "Like you said, we all need to be on our 'A' game.

He gave her a quick kiss on her forehead as she slept. He went to the computer and touch the keyboard. He started reading and he knew which way Hanna's interview was going to go. He sat back and called Ukitake.

"Hello," a tired voice answered.

"Hey Love," he whispered back.

"Talk to me, Shunsui."
