Lies beneath the truth

"Why?" Byakuya asked he suspected they would be here a while for Jaden to be checked then.

Renya said nothing but she listened

'complications is all' Ukitake didnt want to talk about it

"With?" Byakuya asked.

'i dont want to talk about it' Ukitake sighed

Renya closed her eyes 'it will be fine, she is my sister'

Byakuya sighed and looked away.

Renya closed her eyes 'i am master of my own house now, my sister is no longer around to sort things out, i have to be the strong one now, and Hanae looks up to me for that, if i panic surely she will too, i remain calm for her sake... and Aizen will one day feel my wrath'

Ukitake sighed he just wanted everything to be okay

Byakuya nodded in response he looked down at Jaden rather sad he missed the birth.

Renya sighed 'my family has suffered enough at his hands, and i will have my revenge'

Ukitake shook his head 'i want things to go right, i do not need Aizen to pay, though i would like to witness it, other things come first'

"Lets just try to raise our family first" Byakuya spoke softly still holding his son.

Renya crossed her arms 'if he has done anything to my son, i will see his head roll'

Ukitake nervously looked up at the time, how long had passed

After that night it was soon morning. Byakuya had taken his son home with Renya after finding out he was fine. He was cradling his son in his arms at the moment.


Hanae was still out though her life was stable. The experiment had weakened her greatly. The child in question was that of an espada it had a hollow type mask around its wrist. Though Hanae did not know as she had not awoken.

Renya had not gotten much sleep at all, her rage had kept her awake, though she would not admit she was so very angry


Ukitake had stayed at the fourth, he wouldnt leave her

Byakuya looked over at Renya, "Would you like to hold him?"


Hanae stirred slightly opening her eyes.

Renya nodded smiling slightly 'i feel like he missed out on having a mam and dad for the very first week of his life'


Ukitake had his eyes closed, holding her hand, he wasnt asleep though

Byakuya passed her over, "We can make up for it"


Hanae shifted slightly wincing she was still quite weak.

Renya stroked her sons head softly 'i hope it didnt confuse him'


Ukitake opened his eyes at the movement 'Hanae?'

""He knows who his real parents are" Byakuya smiled placing his hand over hers.


Hanae smiled brightly it was Ukitake, "Jyuu..." she whispered softly.

Renya nodded slowly 'i wont let him out of my sight'


Ukitake smiled 'there you are... how are you feeling?'

Byakuya smiled, "And i wont let both of you out of mine"


"Jyuu i'm so sorry" Hanae whispered looking away, "You must hate me"

Renya closed her eyes 'i think for now, i will stay here in bed.. though, at some point i need to go see how Soifon is coping without me'


Ukitake shook his head 'i do not and i never will, if i hated you would i stay at your bedside holding your hand all night?'

Byakuya nodded in response, "Of course... if you need anything just ask me"


Hanae slowly looked over at him, "But what happened is classed as cheating... i never meant too.... i love you"

Renya placed her son on her chest, holding him with one arm 'ohhh is that an offer?'


'i know you do, and i assumed you were forced, so you didnt cheat at all' Ukitake smiled 'please, i am an understanding person, you did no wrong'

"Of course" Byakuya chuckled.



Hanae looked down again she felt so bad for it because she loved him with all her heart.

Renya smiled ever so slightly 'then fetch me breakfast... in bed'



Ukitake brushed her hair out of her face with his fingers gently 'dont look sad, thats the last thing i want'

Byakuya shook his head at her but moved to do so.



Hanae smiled slightly at him.
