Chapter #7: Cursing the Cursed Curses

The sky is colored lime green, a lush forest spans as far as the eye can see, Ichi awakes on the forest floor, he tries to speak but his voice was silent, he begins to explore the beauty of the forest, each leaf its own shade of green, the bark of each tree all the same brown with a light coat of moss, Ichi looks up to see a cute silver panther laying on a thick tree branch, it glances at him with its purple hued eyes, it jumps down and Ichi notices that it has no shadow also that the trees' shadows have started to slowly fade away, he feels a blade pierce his gut and yet his screams are nonexistent and the blood does not flow downward, he begins to run, the leafs change from green to blood red, huge pillars of iron erupt from the ground ruining the beauty of nature, Ichi is bond by the iron as black four leaf clovers sprout up on the iron, he feels extreme pain from the iron crushing his limbs, although the bone chilling frost that numbed his balls didn't help either. Ichi sees seven figures arrive, each take a unique human form: a princess wearing only ice for clothing, a boy made of metal with what appears to be electricity discharging off of him, a ninja who has a sinister expression on her face and weapons in hand, a demonic boy made from shadows and darkness, a women with roses covering only her breasts and vagina, another princess who has the claws of a tiger, a tail of a fox and Miya's glare, finally a beauty who's charms will hurt you and please you, the iron pillars that trap Ichi begin to morph into a crucifix and he is embedded in it, then each person, who was torturing him, walks up and rips a piece out of him and those pieces form a being, who's sight causes Ichi to cough up blood.

In central Teito, a burst of energy shatters the thick layers of ice like a rock through a glass house, and out of the frozen crater, Janic, Uzume, and Niumi stand as Ichi lays looking like he is having a nightmare, his sekirei symbol starts to emit a reddish energy, Niumi tries to touch him but the energy hurts her hand, Janic sees this,

"Oh no!" He walks over to Ichi, his jaw jumps at the sight of the blood red sekirei wings, Niumi backs up and gets behind Uzume, her perverted eyes become glued to Uzume's fine ass,

"Niumi, did you kiss my son before Kouken freed us with shunko?" "No Uzume because I know Ichi's wings, and those things aren't my Ichi's!" Janic looks back at Niumi, seeing the truth in her eyes, he turns back to Ichi, who has stood up, the blood red wings spanning out, plasma bursts out and hits Janic, he then sees an image of a hyena in his mind, a scar on his left side of his firm stomach burns him so intensely that he is put on his knees, "Janic!" Uzume moves closer but both Janic and Ichi cough up what appears to be white ooze, it began to engulf their faces,

"Uzume, run..." The reddish energy encloses them, Niumi's attitude completely changes and she pulls out what appears to be a sapphire blue mod soul candy. Somewhere nearby, Mutsu, Yoruichi and Soi Fon feel an abnormal spiritual pressure,

"We need to hurry!" Mutsu goes into a full on sprint while reddish smoke fill the area around Uzume and Niumi, Uzume sees through it, her eyes stare at the pale white masks on Janic and Ichi's face, both wear the same mask, "Ichi... Janic." They look at her, and laughter fills the air before they flash step and their claws for hands comes within millimeters of her skin, she spins around and her cloth sends them six feet away from her, "Well boys, it looks like mama gets to spank you unruly brats!" She jumps into the air, hollowfided Janic attacks first, they begin exchanging blows but only Uzume's are actually hitting their target until a hard left kick sends her onto the roof of a building, she gets up and removes the blood from her lips, "What Kouken is this revenge because I chose Mutsu?" He points his palm at her,

"Foolish child, I'm not Kouken!" Her eyes widen when she heard that evil voice, he launches a cero at her, it is orange in color, Uzume cartwheels and deflects the cero, she then uses her cloth to make a blade on her right hand, "Shoal Blade!" She slashes at him, he dodges with ease, "I take it you remember me now." She growls as her foot meets his mask, about three fourths of it shatter off his face, "Those eyes... Hetian!" She charges at him with the blade but in a flash, crystals ruin Uzume's cloth and pin her to the side of another building, hollowfided Ichi, who has one fourth of his mask removed, stands by hollowfided Janic, "Uzume, prepare to be killed by Hetian the Demon!" Both of them said that as they rush in for the killing blow, suddenly the Hetians sense an incredible spiritual pressure, a grey colored whip strikes up and when it cracks the air, a massive blast of water sends the Hetians back, Niumi leaps up, in a soul reaper uniform, the whip coils up, Uzume stares at Niumi,

"I really didn't want to reveal my true identity." Niumi glares at the Hetians, they begin to laugh like hyenas, "Your true identity? You must be some low leveled soul reaper thinking you can make yourself a name if you kill me, pitiful." The double voice of Hetian begins to annoy her, "Can you shut the halo up! Goodness, your voice sounds like a whore giving head and your laugh was too much like nails on a chalkboard." Hetian pops a vein and they charge at her, she spins around, the water from her whip act like swirling blades, and it cuts the Hetians while sending them backwards again, "Who in the hell are you?" The Hetians' wounds heal in seconds, Niumi coils up her whip, "My full name is Niumi Hio." Uzume's jaw drops while the Hetians didn't react, "That's bullshit! I know for a fact that the Hio family has no daughters born to it." As he said that, Mutsu appears behind Hetian possessed Janic and his sword pierces right through Janic's stomach scar,

"Hetian, get the hell out of my friend!" Hetian laughs as possessed Ichi is hit by both Yoruichi and Soi Fon, that body was only glass so it shatters, Mutsu looks at the body he just attacked, it was also glass, Hetian possessed Janic has his hands on Uzume while Hetian possessed Ichi dodges the kicks and punches off Soi Fon, Yoruichi moves closer to Mutsu, "Mutsu, you are a fool, thinking you could kill me like that especially since I have full control over your son's and his godfather's powers." Mutsu smirks as a eye symbol appears on Hetian possessed Janic's hands, Uzume kicks him in the balls, and jumps down to Mutsu, "But how? I should be in full control by now." The zanpakuto, Metsuki, appears before Hetian possessed Janic, she begins to choke him, "Hetian, you know that question you asked me earlier, I made my decision." The hollow eyes of Hetian leave Janic, the mask disappears and he coughs up a topaz, Metsuki catches him and the gem,

"Sorry, master, it had to be done." She floats down to Mutsu and the others, Uzume looks around, "Guys, where did Niumi and the seventeen year old lesbian go?" Mutsu sighs and takes the gem from Metsuki,

"Dear, can you make sure Kouken is alright while me and Yoruichi assist Soi Fon and um... the woman I haven't met yet." Uzume nods as Mutsu and Yoruichi move out, Metsuki removes her heavy metal gauntlets, cloth unwraps itself from around her hands, and her soft looking fingers gently move across her master's face, Janic opens his eyes, "Metsuki, when...did you get h..here?" Metsuki places a single finger on his lips, "Save your strength master, Squad 4's captain and Lt. shall be here soon." As she said that, Captain Unohana and Lt. Ise arrive,

"Ise please assist the young woman, I'll take Lt. Kouken." Ise nods and kneels down next to Uzume, Unohana examines Janic's body, she sees the scar on his stomach, and the imprint of Metsuki's hands around his throat, "It was Hetian wasn't it?" Metsuki nods, she feels so guilty for injuring master, tears drip from her chin, Unohana grab Metsuki's hands, "Its ok, its not your fault... right now he needs you to be strong and supportive." Metsuki wipes away the tears as Unohana begins using the healing kido on Janic, Uzume looks at Metsuki and thinks to herself.

"She must be his hidden emotions, cause for as long as I known Kouken, he is always been cheerful, kind, and gentle yet she is serious, cruel, and somewhat depressed." Ise finishes healing Uzume, "Miss, I hope you are feeling better." Uzume smiles and shakes Ise's hand, "Yes I am, thank you." Ise goes over to her captain and assists in healing Janic, Uzume starts to walk over to him when Metsuki stands up and blocks her path.

"Lets get one thing straight, Uzume, I did not save you because I wanted to, I saved you because its what master would have done..." Metsuki removes the cloth from her arms and hands it to Uzume, "Take this so when master awakes he isn't greeted by temptation." Uzume looks down and sees her nude body, then within five seconds she spins Metsuki's cloth around her, Uzume forms her white outfit but then it changes black, she looks confused by the sudden color change, "Don't you look better in black?" Metsuki snaps her fingers and Uzume is forced to the ground, "Metsuki, I know you don't like me very much, but I don't care if you like me, because I'm friends with your master even if I broke his heart years ago..." Uzume gets to her feet, and induces a color change in the clothing, back to white, "So why don't you learn to forgive me, I was young." Metsuki turns her to Uzume, she sighs.

Somewhere in the sky, Soi Fon pounds her fist and feet into the face of Hetian possessed Ichi, but suddenly Hetian's spiritual pressure nearly triples, and his fist makes contact with her gut, shockwaves were sent through her slim figure and she lost her breath, he smirks as Soi Fon keeps her distance,

"What's wrong Soi Fon? Oh your shocked by my sudden rise in spiritual pressure, well that's quite simple to answer, I had to spilt myself between two bodies so this body only got one third of my true power while the body I really wanted got the most of my power." Soi Fon quickly thinks about what he said and realizes, "Most of your power went into Kouken's body because..." Hetian possessed Ichi now is behind Soi Fon, "Because his body and powers are the ones I really wanted!" Soi Fon is knocked through the building and she is now on the bottom floor, Hetian charges at her, bloodlust in his hollow eyes, he is unaware that Niumi is on the bottom floor, preparing a kido spell, he comes within feet of Soi Fon,

"Bakudo #38 Kurosuposuto-Iki!" Niumi thrust a yellow crucifix at Hetian, it hits him in the gut, his body is forced to the ground, and his arms feel like he was being bound to the floor, a cross appears under him, "What the hell?" Soi Fon stands up and high fives Niumi, "Well Hetian, you fell for one hell of a trap set up by cute little old me!" Niumi smiles and dances as Hetian becomes so annoyed, that he frees his right arm from the Bakudo, and prepares a cero, "Eat this you Bitch, Gran Rey Cero!" A huge orange blast of negative energy roars out of his palm, Niumi laughs, "Bakudo #81 Donku!" A thin retangle barrier blocks the cero yet it still pushes them out of the building as the barrier begins to crack, Soi Fon sees this before Niumi and she put her body in front of Niumi as the barrier breaks,

"Shunko!" Soi Fon barely can contain the reality bending attack, but some of the energy go passed her and wounds Niumi in the shoulder, and huge explosion happens after that, the smoke slowly clear, Hetian possessed Ichi stands over a critical wounded Soi Fon, who is laying over top an injured Niumi, he laughs again, "Well Miss wannabe Hio, it looks like you shall die!" He summons a crystal pillar and starts to bring it down onto the girls but then Yoruichi appear with three yellow triangles around her,

"Bakudo #30 _!" The triangles bind Hetian's arms and mid section to a the same building he just blow a hole in, he quickly frees himself from the kido and rushes at Yoruichi, Mutsu jumps down and slashing vertically, cutting Hetian possessed Ichi deeply, Mutsu pulls out the topazes, and he makes them float as Hetian uses Ichi's blood to draw a symbol on the road, "Mutsu, what ever you are about to try will not work, because in a few seconds my zanpakuto shall come forth and once I release it, your son and all the power he has or was going to have should be mine!" From the symbol that looks a lot like the emblem for the third reight, a handle begins to rise up, Mutsu throws the topazes at Hetian, they pierce his blood red wings and they turn topaz orange as Mutsu slams his katanna into the throat of Hetian possessed Ichi,

"Hetian, sometimes you talk too much." Hetian growls but he can't move his limbs, Mutsu keeps driving his sword deep into Hetian, forgetting that its still his son's body, Hetian smirks, his eyes changes from hollow black to human white, Ichi looks and sees his father's sword in his throat, he can't breath or move, "Why...fa...ther?" Mutsu is shocked by whose voice he just heard, he looks into Ichi's eyes, then he looks at what he has done to his own son, he breaks out in tears, and pulls out the sword, Niumi awakes and gently moves Soi Fon off of her body, she looks at Mutsu and then sees Ichi except his wings are still orange,

"LOOK OUT!" Sadly before Mutsu could react, Hetian's hand pierces Mutsu's chest causing him to cough up blood, "You bas..tard..." Hetian throws Mutsu over by Niumi, she stands up even with her wounds, she holds up her zanpakuto,

"BAN-!" She feels something grab her exposed leg, she looks down and sees a black haired boy with pitch black eyes,

"Miss, I can help you out just sit down and watch." Niumi sits down, she feels somewhat certain that this little boy can keep her safe like Reiten and Ichi, the boy walks forward as shadows flow out of his hands, these shadows grab Mutsu and Soi Fon, they are taken somewhere away from the battlefield, Hetian stares downs the boy, "Those eyes...Perfect, an opponent who is a challenge!" He grabs his zanpakuto, and rushes at the boy, "Sit Hyena!" A burst of dark energy hits Hetian in the head and he is forced to the ground and before he could get up, the boy has his finger on the impure sekirei symbol, "Look, I do not have time for this, so shut up and submit you foolish hyena!" Hetian begins to crack all over, his zanpakuto shatters, "Damn you...to hell...and before I flee inside of this...moron I have one thing to say..." Hetian begins to lose this influence over Ichi's body, it turns from pail white to a light tan, "She...i...is awak...ing!" The orange wings burst and the shards flow into Ichi's symbol and Hetian's masks fades away, the boy removes his finger off Ichi's sekirei symbol, he then looks at Niumi, "Woman, you need practice and warn this guy, the next time I see him, he shall receive my wrath." Niumi stands up and hugs the boy,

"Thank you youngest son of Reiten." The boy's eyes widen, "I'm wiser than you think, little sir." He wants to hit her for the little remark but he just walks away into a shadow and he vanishes, Yoruichi appears next to Niumi, she looks at Ichi, "So Niumi, do you think he'll remember what just happened?" Niumi covers her open wounds with a piece of Ichi's shirt and she lifts one side of him up, sadly her wound prevents her from lifting the rest of him, Yoruichi grabs the other side, "Yoruichi, I hope he doesn't." They carry him back to where Unohana and Ise are healing the injured Mutsu and Soi Fon, Uzume holds Mutsu's hand, Janic sits five feet away as Metsuki whispers something into his ear, Niumi and Yoruichi drop Ichi,

"So you ladies finished off Hetian?" Uzume asks, Niumi sighs, "No..." Uzume jumps up and starts to walk over to Niumi but Metsuki makes Uzume stop, "Metsuki, let go of me." Metsuki keeps Uzume still,

"Uzume calm down." "How can I, that monster did all this!" Everyone looks gloomy, Janic awakes and sits up, he sees everyone's faces,

"I guess Mutsu was forced to do the unthinkable." Uzume turns around and slams her fist into Janic, "What is the unthinkable?" "Uzume...the unthinkable is..." Metsuki covers Janic's mouth as Uzume gets pissed,

"Kouken, if the unthinkable was forcing the topazes back into Hetian...it did not work." Janic looks over at Niumi, "That can't be, me and Mutsu figured out how to put a unique kido inside them and after ten minutes of being back with Hetian, the kido should have bond him inside of Ichi until he was ready to tame him..." Niumi counts on her finger, "Wait, you said ten minutes right?" "Yes." Niumi begins to sweat heavily, "Its only been nine minutes since Mutsu did that." Janic jumps up and points his hand in Ichi's direction, "Byakurai!" White lightening roars out of his fingers and it hits Ichi in the throat, Janic falls to the ground, Captain Unohana just finished healing Soi Fon, so she gets up and smacks Janic, fully knocking him out, Yoruichi sighs,

"Unohana, don't you think that was a little over board?" Unohana laughs and an Demon mask appears behind her, Uzume leaps behind Ise, "I thought the punishment fit the crime, he knows not to use kido when his spirit energies are not balanced therefore I smacked him because he just caused me more work." Yoruichi looks into Unohana's devilish looking eyes, "That fits the crime...so Unohana, my little bee must be on bed rest until tomorrow night." Unohana nods, Yoruichi grabs Soi Fon and flash steps away, Ise finishes closing Mutsu's wound, Unohana walks over to her Lt. "Ise, please heal lady Niumi and then assist her carrying Itchy home, I must get Kouken back to the soul society, his wounds have reopened." Ise goes over to Niumi as Niumi says, Uzume puts Mutsu over her right shoulder, "Uzume dear, you may have the name of a goddess but the next time you hit my Kouken without my permission, I will show you how mortal you really are." Uzume runs for it and thinks to herself,

"I see where Miya gets it from!" Unohana opens a senkaimon, Metsuki carries her master through it, "Ise, we shall return the night of the final feather." Unohana walks into the white light and then she is gone.

Elsewhere, around the location of the ice princess and her new umm... friend, five unusual looking sekirei are hidden behind bushes, four of them being very elegant women, they surround a little boy, who has steel like skin at the moment, as a living shadow arrives, his pitch black eyes hide the fact that he too is the size of a five year old and looks like a five year old,

"Niheru-sama." The steel clad boy bows to Niheru, the women look at him,

"Niheru, we have been waiting for you, what has kept you from us?" The one lady asks as the roses that covered her body gleam a bit brighter around Niheru, he summoned a black orb, "The thing that kept me from you all, was this..." He increases the size of the orb and an image of Ichi appears inside of it, he begins to turn into Hetian, and the orb shows his destructive power and how he dispelled kidos with just sheer will, "This thing is known as Hetian the spirit of mischief, once he and the Arrancar called Arturo ruined the heavens before the mythical squad zero and the head captain of the thirteen court guard squads defeated Arturo and Hetian fled, now he has reeled his ugly face again..." One of the women walks up to Niheru, she looks a hell of a lot like Miya, and she pushes the image back to Ichi,

"Why in the world are we worried about some sekirei who has an ugly version of Loki inside of him?" Niheru uses shadows to give himself so height, he grabs the Miya look a like's chin, "My cousin, Yuki, that sekirei might have the key to saving us from our curse." He pushes her hair to the side to reveal her discarded sekirei symbol, she falls to her knees, tears covers her cheeks, another of the women, who is dressed more like an assassin, comes and loans her shoulder to Yuki, the tears soak the assassin's black clothing,

"My lord, you know Lady Yuki is very emotional, why are you always like your father?" The orb changes the image from Hetian to Reiten, lightening flares behind him, Niheru laughs, "Kira, you say I'm always like my father." Niheru gets an villainous glare in his eyes, Yuki brings Kira's body closer to her own as He gets near them, the woman covered in roses grabs his shoulder and points at the frozen love birds,

"Niheru, we need to stop this, or he'll ruin our future plans." "Yes, we do need to stop them, Sano, Fuku, break them up!" They nod and move away from the others, "Why did you not let me do it?" "My dear, if you would have done it, they may have started fucking each other." The rose covered woman sighs as Akitsu and Hyorinmaru are surrounded by metal orbs, he roars loudly, she holds his waist tightly, the orbs begin to strike him,

"Rain over the frosted heavens!" Three ice dragons form out from Hyorinmaru's hand, their breath coats the orbs in a thick ice causing them to slow down, Akitsu feels someone grab her hips, and a loud snapping sound echoes, Hyorinmaru turns to see Akitsu at the mercy of some woman wearing a lot of lucky charms, he roars like a dragon as he forms his sword and slices the metal orbs that are coming at him into bite size bits, the sparks dance off of his sword, a metal skin boy comes up from behind and pierces Hyorinmaru's chest, ice blue blood pours out from his chest, "Hyorinmaru!" Akitsu screams, he falls to the ground, the other sekirei appear in front of the wounded Hyorinmaru, Niheru glances at him,

"I know you are better than this, divine ice dragon, Hyorinmaru..." He watches Hyorinmaru shake like a leaf as he stood up, Yuki looks in Hyorinmaru's eyes, she sees the building rage and sheltered emotions ready to burst out of him, "Niheru, I think we should wrap this up." Niheru looks at Yuki, he sees that she is worried about something, "Hyorinmaru, leave Akitsu alone, she has faced too much abandonment in her life, she doesn't need anymore." Akitsu looks at Hyorinmaru,

"What does he mean?" She asks, he begins to look gloomy as he remains silent, "ANSWER ME!" She demands in a cold hearted way, "I am not a true sekirei...I'm a zanpakuto..." Akitsu turns away from him, "So you lied to me when we we're skating...you lied about having heavenly ice wings, having a gentle heart..." "Wait, I didn't completely lie to you." She ignores him, "So you even lied about caring about me." "No, I only lied about being a true sekirei, that's all." She is helped up by the lucky charmed woman, "How can I believe you, if you lied to me? ...Good Bye, zanpakuto." She fades away with the falling snow, so do the others, Hyorinmaru falls tp his knees, tears freeze on his cheeks. "DAMN IT!" Massive pillars of Ice form all around him in a perfect circle.

Hours later, in the forest outside of the main city but still legal in the confines of the city, inside Niumi and Sakuya Hio's house (What I introduce their last name, so what? Ichi doesn't know so no one of tell him yet), Niumi sits in the living room, she still outside of her gigai, she looks at her sealed zanpakuto,

"It must have been a hundred years since I had to release you old friend, of coarse we wouldn't be at full power..." She breaks out in tears, a hand wipes away the tears, a man fully comes out of the sword, his skin is clear as water,

"Mistress, please do not cry, it isn't your fault, its mine, I should have spoke up to you when you were alone, maybe we could have practice being in sync..." "Mizurei, I told you before, I'm not your mistress, I'm your master and beside the only mistress in this family is mother..." Niumi just remembered the last thing Hetian said before being force to submit, she jumps up, "Master what's wrong?" Mizurei questions her, she looks at him, "Mizu, return now, Sakuya is coming back any minute, and I don't want you getting yelled at for my mistake..." He knows there is something wrong but he doesn't question her order since she is nearing her depress state once again, he returns to the sword, praying that she will be ok, Niumi walks over to her gigai, enters it and spits out the mod soul candy, she goes to the door and opens it like she is about to leave, but Sakuya is right there, Niumi jumps back due to Sakuya's glare,

"Where is he?" Sakuya says with cold tone, Niumi points to the stairs, Sakuya grabs Niumi by the arm and drags her up the stairs, they walk a few feet until they reach his room, the door was cracked open a bit, Sakuya charges in, seeing Ichi, he is shaking like he is having a nightmare, Sakuya pulls out a knife from her bra, she was about to hurt him, "Run..." Ichi was sleep talking, Sakuya stopped and begins to listen, she hears him saying, "I can't control my body...mother get away...No...get out of my body...Niumi, please get away from me..." He is reliving the events that happen earlier, Niumi looks away, Sakuya remembers why she was going to hurt Ichi and she stabs him in the leg, he jumps three feet in the air off the bed,

"Stop torturing me, You monster!" Sakuya smacks Ichi, knowing he is still not with it, "Get your fat, lazy ass up, Itchy!" She keeps hurting him, she laughs evilly as each slash and smack leaves a cut or a bruise, Niumi wants to scream stop but a small part of her wants him to be punished but she turns around and as she was about to say something, Reiten appears in the window and stops Sakuya,

"Dear, calm down, your upsetting Niumi more than she already is, and besides your torture isn't working." Sakuya looks at Niumi, she remembers the last time her sister was this sad, Sakuya had to convince Niumi not to kill herself, Sakuya even said, "I make sure you'll never be like this ever again..." Sakuya walks over to Niumi and hugs her, Niumi begins to cry into Sakuya's shoulder, Reiten picks up the still asleep Ichi and puts him on the bed, Reiten was going to heal him until his sees Ichi's cuts and bruises disappearing from his skin, "Interesting." He says, the girls look and Sakuya's eyes widen, "How did he do that?" Sakuya walks over and cuts Ichi again, the cut fades away in three seconds, Reiten smirks, "So that means Mutsu put Hetian inside his own son...he really does have a dark side." Sakuya looks at him, "How do you know that name?" Reiten smirks and pulls Sakuya close, he looks into her eyes, "I watched as Kouken and Mutsu fought Hetian, then Kouken told me the story of how Hetian was one of the first arrancars, and how he and Arturo nearly destroyed the soul society until squad zero assisted Head Captain Yamamoto in defeating Arturo..." She believes him and they make up as Niumi sits next to Ichi, she kisses his cheek, he begins to awaken,

"Where am I?" Ichi sits up and checks his chest making sure he didn't have a hole in it, "Ichi, what are you doing?" Niumi asks, "Making sure I'm whole...Niumi, you're safe!" He hugs her, Sakuya looks at Ichi, he sees Reiten and his wings, "Reiten, you emerged!" He screams as he backs himself into the wall,

"Ichi, you must have been completely out of it." "Wait, what do you mean completely out of it?" Reiten sighs, "At this very moment, an everlasting blizzard is building in the sky and all of Japan and the rest of Asia is frozen over." Ichi looks out and sees the snow, hail, and ice, "I guess that's why I'm so cold."

"You're cold, Itchy?" Sakuya checks Ichi's temperature, its 98.7 degrees F, "Your temp. is fine, maybe its psychological." Ichi sighs, "Reiten, was I frozen under your first layers of ice earlier?" Niumi grabs Ichi's hands,

"Ichi, you were knocked out by the first wave ice but somehow you kept me from getting frozen, your godfather used shunko to free us and I carried you home." "Ok, then I guess I was having a nightmare." Sakuya sits on the bed,

"Can you tell us about your nightmare?" Ichi plays with his fingers, "I awoke in a crater, I saw godfather, and mother, then me and him coughed up some white ooze, it over took us, then I lost control of my body..." Ichi begins to tear up, "I hurt mother, badly, then Niumi appeared in a soul reaper uniform, she had a whip like zanpakuto..." Sakuya looks at Niumi with the kind of glare that says we are going to have a chat later, "Itchy please continue..." Reiten laughs, he already figured out why Sakuya is doing this, "Then she began to whip me until godfather started to attack her, I tried to stop him, then he was attacked by my father and even godfather's own zanpakuto KO'd him, I fought some 17 year old lesbian, and Niumi, my body wasn't in my control at all, then I defeated the lesbian, Niumi, and even my own father..." Ichi's head begins to pound, "I heard laughter, that's all I heard after that, it was torture, listening to that..." Ichi punches a hole in the wall, Sakuya grabs him by the throat,

"Itchy fix the wall, now!" She glares at him, he places his hand on the wall, nothing happens, "Itchy, I said FIX IT NOW!" Ichi tries to fix the wall again, sadly the hole remains, "What the...my powers, they're gone." Reiten looks at Ichi, he sees something wrong with the flow of energy in his body, Sakuya begins to choke Ichi, "Itchy stop playing around." "Sakuya, I wish I was playing around, but I can't feel the earth at the moment." Sakuya gets the knife again and bring it closer to his neck,

"Dear, he isn't playing around, he's telling the truth." Sakuya looks at Reiten, she drops the knife, "Niumi, we need to talk without Ichi." Niumi frowns as she gets up, "Ichi, I want you to go for a walk until Niumi calls your cell." Ichi sighs as he gets out of bed, he jumps out the window and lands on the snow covered ground in bare feet, he only feels the cold and lifeless ground, nothing else as he walks.

The next day, in front of Maison Izumo, Tsukiumi and Musubi have their arms wrapped around Minato as they enter the house,

"I'm Home!" Minato yells, Ku runs into the hallway, her face full of life even thought the plants across the globe are being frozen by the hellish ice storm, "Big Brother!" Ku runs into Minato's arms, he stokes her hair, "I'm back, Ku." He says in a calm manner. In the dinning area, Miya wipes the table with a cloth,

"Today we're celebrating your recovery, Minato." Miya says with a cheerful look in her eyes, "Aw, no need to go overboard." He says with Ku in his lap, Matsu looks over at him,

"It's truly a relief that it was nothing serious." Matsu said "Ku worried a whole, whole lot." Ku looked up at Minato, she smiles as he pat her on the head, "Sorry, Ku." Tsukiumi blushes embarrassed by her mistake and her undeserved reward,

"This was entirely my fault for our master getting hurt...I apologize for my foolish, Minato." "Tsukiumi." Tsukiumi and Minato lend towards each other for a kiss but then Musubi appears with a bowl full of food, her demonic inner bear appears and glares at them, they freak out, Musubi looks behind herself and only sees a sad Uzume,

"What's up guys? Ah, you're back Minato! What a mess that was." Musubi still was looking for what scared Tsukiumi and Minato, "Uzume, sorry if I worried you." "So, You've gotten another didn't you?" Tsukiumi becomes angered, "Gotten? Uzume!" Minato finally got what Uzume meant, "Impressive, most impressive!" She says with a laugh but as she walks away, her smile becomes a frown once more, Musubi walks into the room finally, Minato sighs, "Come to think of it, where is Kazehana?" Musubi smiles,

"Oh Kazehana is..." Kazehana appears in a gust of wind, she is only in a nude apron, her hair is blowing in the breeze, "Welcome Home, Minato!" Minato's nose is like a bleeding river, "K-K-Kazehana!" He covers his noses as Matsu pops up like an animated pop up,

"This is epic...!" Tsukiumi also pops up, "What is the meaning of this outfit?" Kazehana places her index finger over Minato's lips,

"My my, how about attaching Misses to your new wife's name? Call me Mrs. Kazehan-" She gets ever so closer as she said that until Miya slams a spoon to smack her on the top of the forehead, her demon appears, "Nude aprons are strictly forbidden!" "Miya, what a frightening face." Kazehana has a huge lump on her head, meanwhile on the snow covered roof, Kaguri lays looking at the grey skies,

"At least something is as grey as I feel right now." It pops the button off its white dress shirt, revealing the unwanted chest, "I won't belong to anyone...I have no intention to, either..." As he thought that, Reiten appears on the roof, "Homura, I pity you." Kaguri backs away, "Oh its you, what do you want?" Reiten smirks, "Its not what I want, I'm here because in the near future, tons of women want you." The snow begins to blur them from our sight.

TO BE CONTINUED, IN THE NEXT CHAPTER...Preview segment: In what appears to be ruins, the author and editor step in front of a huge coffin,

"Author, what the hell are we doing here in Hueco Mundo?" The editor questions the author, the author smiles, "Do you know what sits before us?" "Mistress and The True Queen of Hueco Mundo." The author smirks, "That's right, and here is where we are going to create her loyal minions aka the Neo Espada!" The editor sighs, "Do we have to create them now, cause we are about to get into the worst arc of sekirei, Homura...I need energy to stomach editing that." The Author smacks himself, "Dude, I completely forgot that, he was the next arc...now what do we do for a Preview segment?" The editor opens a senkaimon, "How about go tease your OC who doesn't have his powers?" The author sighs, "I'm not kicking a man when he is down, that's luck's job." They both laugh, "Oh, may be we should ask our readers, if we got any left, if they want us to make the Homura crap only two chapters?" The author ask, the editor passes trough the light of the senkaimon, the author soon follows and now is falling to the ground, the editor floats in the air, holding a glass of Lunar Sunrise, he drinks as the author gets an idea, "One of our next Chapters is being called War of the Cannon and a filler chapter is being called Team Reiten Vs Team Miya aka an unfair battle of the sexes." The editor begins to use the author like a yo-yo, up and down, around the globe and walking the dog. Reiten appears next to the editor,

"Did he say something about me vs. Miya, its no contest, I'm the superior warrior." Miya then appears, "Brother, the pervy author said Team Reiten Vs My Team, since there are more sekirei women, it is no contest, my team will win with our lustrous bodies." The author breaks free of the yo-yo trap and gets in-between Miya and Reiten,

"Miya, and Reiten calm yourselves. I'm going to let your two teams clash but Miya to make things fair, Reiten is getting Shinigami assistance, your teams are going to have a total of 15 members." Reiten nods in acceptance so does Miya, "I shall tell you two your full teams after Homura emerges." Reiten sighs, "I already know some members of my team, Mutsu, Ichi if he gets control of the earth again, Homura because he was a guy and he will be a pure guy again, Sainero, and Truth boy if he gets better in time for this clash." Miya laughs,

"Reiten, two of your members are not even in a good position, I now that I can name all 15 members of my team right now, Musubi, Tsukiumi, Kazehana, Beni-No Boobs, Uzume, The thunder sluts, my child Yuki, Kira, for some reason Fuku, Matsu, Ku, Achika aka the woman who is covered in roses at the moment, Karasuba, and Akitsu." Reiten claps, "Sister, your team does seem like a good challenge but I'm keeping the rest of my team under wraps until that chapter comes, then the men shall defeat your women and prove that you all deserve to submit to the power of men!" Miya chuckles, "Brother never forgot fate usually favors women." Miya and Reiten fade away, the author's jaw drops,

"Dude, I can't wait for the Homura crap to be over, I want to see that battle of the sexes." The editor smirks, "Well now, we need to think of a trump card to give Reiten since Miya has Karasuba, Musubi, and Uzume." "I guess you're right unless we..." The author whispers the last part into the editor's ear, "We shall discuss this more, next chapter's preview segment." They clear their throats, "Hope you all join us again!"

Also Note: We had some techinological difficulties, so you are getting two different chapters at the same time, sorry for the huge delay.
