Hey everyone! I know I haven't been around, but I have a few financial issues and I just started my new job. Please R&R it would mean a lot to me if you do. Thank you all for not giving up on me.
Without further a due. Here is the next chapter and I hope in two weeks I can post the last chapter of this story.

Yoruichi was startled awake by a loud beeping noise in the background. It took her some time before she felt herself being shaken. Her eyes slowly opening as multiple blurs ran in front of her eyes.
"Mommy! Mommy, somethings wrong." She heard her son in her ear.
Her eyes finally open as she sees doctors and nurses crowed around Byakuya.
"He's crashing. Get them out of here." The doctor spoke as a nurse came over to Yoruichi trying to usher her out of the room.
"No! No, I'm not leaving. What happening to him?" Yoruichi's eyes grew wider as the nurses took her and the children outside the room
She tried to see around them but couldn't as the door slowly closed in her face. She sat in the nearest chair rocking and watching her children play together on the floor.
"Please get off the floor. We don't want the both of you sick too." Yoruichi heard the light voice from behind her.
She turned around to see Rukia and Ichigo smiling down at her. Rukia came and sat next to Yoruichi as Ichigo picked Sen and Yakuri off the floor.
"This is all my fault. I should have just left and never returned like I had planned." Yoruichi put her face in her hands.
"Nonsense, and then what would have happened to them if you had stayed away? Besides, Byakuya loves you too much and would have gone mad without you. We have to be strong for him. Now, Tetsuya wanted me to give you this envelope. He said open it once you are sure Byakuya is stable and the children are safe. With that being said we are taking the two little ones with us for the day. We need you to stay here and watch over my brother. Ok?" Rukia forced a smile trying to reassure Yoruichi.
"Yeah, that sounds fine." Yoruichi took the letter and looked over at her laughing children climbing over Ichigo.
"Hey you guys. Rukia and Ichigo are going to take you out on a trip today. I want you to be good and enjoy yourselves." Yoruichi smiled as they ran to hug her.
"Be safe mommy!" Yakuri yelled as she ran back to Ichigo.
"We will come back so no crying mommy." Sen spoke as he hugged her one more time.
"I know you will. Have fun." She waved as she watched them walk down the hallway.
Yoruichi walked over to the bathroom. She entered the bathroom and went to the very end. She looked around the stall before she looked down at the manila envelope. She turned it over and broke the seal. She pulled out a small clear glass tub full of a green substance and then she pulled out a letter.
Yoruichi, I am trusting this with you. I found this glass container in a hidden room when rescuing your son. It seems that it was of more importance than I thought. In this envelope is an address. If you choose to use it, then so be it. Do what you think needs to be done.
Tetsuya
Yoruichi looked at the address and looked at the container. She shook with anger and rage. She got up after tossing the letter and the envelope. She stood near the nurses table when she felt a tap to her shoulder.
"We have him stable. It is taking us longer than we hoped to find the antitoxins. If you wish to see him, you can. As soon as we find out more we will come and tell you." The doctor patted her shoulder as she walked in to the room.
Yoruichi POV
Seeing him like this takes so much of my heart. His face was pale and sickly. I placed my hand on his cheek and wanted to cry when his skin felt cold and clammy. I stood straight up and looked down at the bottle in my hand. Anger began to rise up in my heart as I looked at the substance in the bottle.
"I have never down anything right. I spent most of my life lying and cheating to get the things I needed. I never trusted anyone to look after me or help me. You have given me so much Byakuya and I will be damned if I let you die." I looked over to the drawers in the corner.
I went through each drawer until I found a syringe. I opened the top to the bottle carefully and stuck the tip of the syringe in the liquid. I filled the syringe and stuck it in the side of my boot. I closed the top and walked back over to Byakuya.
"I love you." I had to tell him and I bent down to kiss his cold lips.
I walked outside and found a nurse. I told her to give this to Byakuya's doctor. The lady rushed off as I stalked out of the building. I need to get a ride and I need one fast. I pulled out my phone and dialed the one person that has been by my side from the beginning.
"Yoruichi, is everything alright?" I heard her voice and felt lighter.
"I'm not sure, but they will be. I know I have already asked so much of you Soi Fon, but I have a huge favor to ask." I sighed as I heard her inhale deeply.
"What's wrong, Cat?" Soi Fon let the worry in her voice seep slowly through the phone.
"I am going to do what needs to be done. I screwed up. I let my selfishness destroy my family. I need to make this right. If anything happens to me I want, you to take care of Sin and Yakuri. I want to make sure they are safe and they know what they mean to me. I can't let Aizen get away with this anymore. I just can't." I hung up the phone before she could ask me what I was going to do.
I sat my phone on the desk and walked out of the hospital. I walked until I saw Byakuya's home come in to view. I sighed for what seemed like the hundredth time today. I silently made my way up the stairs to Byakuya's room. As I looked at the tussled sheets, I sobbed. For the first time since Byakuya has gotten sick, I am crying with the real hurt I feel. I wiped the tears from my face and walked over to the bag sitting next to the dresser. I rummaged until I found the key I saved for a special occasion. I slipped the key in my pocket and walked out of the room to find Tetsuya standing to the side.
"I cannot persuade you to divert from the path that you have chosen to follow, but I ask that you think it through." Tetsuya was trying to talk me out of going and I knew he would.
"I understand, but I have to do this. Byakuya and everyone else I care about is in danger no matter what I do." I smiled as I patted his shoulder.
I left the mansion and walked to the hotel I was keeping a room at just in case Byakuya decided he couldn't stand to see my face or be near me in his home. It was only a couple of blocks so that I could walk if getting my car was not possible. I stepped in to the lobby of that was adorned with large chandeliers, light brown painted walls with lace designs on the top and bottom, chocolate couches with crème colored throw pillows. The desk clerk greeted me and I smiled slightly not wanting to bring to much attention to my arrival. I took the elevator up to the eighth floor and walked the long hallway to the very last door. I inserted my key card and pushed the door to step inside. I went to my safe in the closet to the far right of the room. I walked in to the closet and lifted the latch on the floor to reveal the safe. I entered the combination. I smiled faintly when I heard the safe click and opened the door. I looked down at the small envelop and pulled it out. I closed the safe and wiped the safe down before closing the door. I exited the closet, closed the closet doors, and opened the envelop. I pulled the top piece of paper up half way without taking it out and looked at the large house in the photo. I tucked the folder under my arm after pushing the photo back in to the envelope. I walked back to the elevator with the envelop secured in my hand. I walked to the clerk's desk and wanted for the clerk to return.
"Is there anything I can help you with?" The clerk spoke cheerfully to me.
"Yes, can you have the valet pull my car around?" I asked bluntly.
"Right away. It will be outside when you are ready." He smiled while waving as I walked to the entrance.
I got in my car as the valet closed my car door. I drive off in the direction of the mountains. I didn't even think twice as I drove as quickly and carefully as I could. I don't want my plans fucked by getting pulled over. I couldn't help but chuckle at that. All my plans ruined because I couldn't do the speed limit or my tail light was out. As I drove further down the street, I knew what I had to do. I turned left and continued up the road. I never wanted to become like Aizen, but to get him off my back I needed to do to him what I'm sure he has been doing to so many other people. My knuckles felt tight as I gripped the steering wheel. My heart was racing and tears were forming behind my eyelids. I couldn't let Aizen get away with this anymore and I refuse to be a fucking puppet for him. I could see the house in the distance as I drove further up the mountain. A small smile payed across my lips as I thought of finally being free of this man. I pulled in to the drive way and the house was surrounded by thick trees and beautiful flowers. I parked the car, cut the engine off, and pulled my hair back in to a high ponytail.
"Time to fix this damn mess." I sighed to myself before I exited the car.
Third Person POV
Yoruichi walked up the marble pathway to the front door. It was almost like walking in slow motion. She reached the door and took a deep breath before pushing the doorbell. Yoruichi waited as she heard running around and women's voice scream after small children. The door swung open and the red head in the door way looked wide eyed as she saw Yoruichi.
"This is a surprise. How are you doing, Yoruichi? I haven't seen you in so long." The woman moved over to invite Yoruichi in side.
"I wanted to come by since I was in town visiting a friend. I know before I left I was telling you about Byakuya. He has accepted my apology about the lies I told him." Yoruichi smiled as she walked inside the house.
"That is great to hear Cat. Well, Aizen isn't home yet. He is still at work." The red head smiled as she picked up a few toys hanging around the living area.
"I will call him and see where he is. I will step out on the patio." Yoruichi went to get up and walked outside.
"Go right ahead. I am going to get the kids to bed. It has been a long day." She smiled as she ran up the stairs after a loud bang.
Yoruichi pulled out her phone and began a video call. It rang for a bit before it was picked up.
"Yoruichi, what can I do for you?" Aizen's smug face appeared on the screen.
"Well, I want to tell you a few things. I don't want you to interrupt, no questions, and no hanging up until I have said everything I need to say. I will let you know when I am done." Yoruichi spoke calmly.
"I like this side of you. Of course I can do that. After everything you have done for me. I can give you this much." He sat back in his office chair with a smirk on his face.
"Good. You have taken my son and poisoned the man I love so much. So, this is what I propose to you, Aizen. You will leave my family, my friends, and me alone. You won't so much as kick rocks in our general direction. You will no longer pester Byakuya about selling his business to you. You won't even think about us anymore. Actually, we won't even exist to you after today. Let me tell you why. I know that one secret that you have kept for so long. All your other enemies never could figure out your weakness. Even your closest associates don't even know that you have this secret. No one knows about the family you have had for the past five years. Now, before you speak I can tell you now that I am here with them and no matter where you move them I will find them. Look at what I have in my hand." Yoruichi pulled the syringe from her boot. "Now, if you decide you don't want to agree you will find me not so forgiving. If you don't believe I'm here let me prove it. Hey, Sarah I got him on the phone." Yoruichi spoke in to the house.
"Oh, good. Hi, sweetheart. You have a great friend. I love her. Well, you two finish business. I have to clean up after Nel and Grimmjow. They got in to a fight over cookies, so Grimmjow crushed them all in Ulquiorra's bed." She smiled as she blew him a kiss before leaving.
"Don't get me wrong, I love your wife. I think she is amazing, but I have a family to protect and you are its biggest threat to it right now. So, what do you say Aizen? Do you agree? Before you say no, I want you to tell you that every month I will send you a picture of me and your wife to ensure you uphold your end of the bargain. Today is number one. I sent you an envelope with some very interesting phots over the last couple of weeks. I think you might enjoy it." Yoruichi watched as his facial expression change to something mixed with anger and fear.
"I see. May I ask how you came about this information?" Aizen asked with clenched teeth.
"That is a secret. I can tell you that no one on your end told me. It was a weird chain of events. So, do we have a deal?" Yoruichi slid the syringe back in her boot.
Aizen looked sternly at Yoruichi as he sat up at his desk, thinking about everything that she had said.
"Fine. We have a deal. I want everything in writing. You don't touch my family and I won't touch yours. We obviously won't put words of murder in it, but I will make sure that we are in understanding. Once we have both signed the paper work I hope to never see your face again." He spoke before he hung up the video call.
Yoruichi smiled as she walked back inside the house. She thanked Sarah before leaving the house. Yoruichi got in her car and pulled out of the drive way. She smiled wildly as she ran her right hand over her face. Tears began to fall from her face as she realized she may actually be able to have a family with Byakuya in her life. She began to laugh hysterically as she pulled in to the large parking garage of the hospital. She parked, put her head on the steering wheel and smiled again. She felt like she could have been dreaming. She cleaned her face, got out of the car, and ran to the hospital doors. Once inside she walked up to the desk clerk and asked for Byakuya. She got on the elevator. Yoruichi was pacing back and forth. She just wanted to see his beautiful eyes look in to hers again. She stepped off the elevator and walked to the service desk.
"I am here for Kuchiki Byakuya." Yoruichi spoke with a tremble in her voice.
"Let me go get the doctor. Wait right here please." The nurse walked away while straightening her purple scrubs.
Yoruichi's stomach dropped as she watched the nurse walk away. She twirled her fingers together trying to avoid biting them. She looked around searching for someone that looks at her with sadness in their eyes. She needed to know what was going on. She saw the doctor at the far end of the hallway. She was trying to read his face as well as the nurses. The doctor walked over to her and her knees almost gave out on her. The doctor saw her falling and quickly caught her and sat her in one of the waiting room chairs.
"Calm down, it's alright. Byakuya has the antidote in his system and will wake very soon we hope. You can go in to see him if you would like to. I am sure it will help his progress." The doctor rubbed her back as she slowly stood.
"Thank you. Thank you so much." She smiled as she walked to his room.
She opened the door slowly as she peeked in and smiled. He looked so much better than when she left. She sat on the side of the bed and laid her head over his chest. She shut her eyes as she listened to his heart beat. She started to fall asleep before she could feel the arm that was now wrapped around her torso.
