Back in action, couldn't give it up.

Orihime POV

All of it just came flooding back, all of it. My head feels like it could explode at any second, but I know Kisuke-san's machine is working because it sends me little tingly pulses that help me feel relief from the huge pressure inside of my head. I look down at Aito, my little one. I knew he was my child, but now all of the memories are back. The first time I felt him move and kick inside me, the pain of child birth, holding him in my arms. When he opened those eyes of his that looked just like his papa's, my heart melted. In that moment I knew I would do anything for him, just as I would for Masaki.

"Ahhh!" the pain in my chest is almost too much to bear.

"Orihime" Ulquiorra quickly pulls off his "glasses" and then took mine off.

"Are you hurt?" he looks at my face, and I just shake my head no.

"My sweet, sweet Masaki, she's gone Ulquiorra, she's gone." My grief almost swallows me whole, until I feel a pair of small hands on my shoulders. Aito had woken up, I felt my baby snuggle up to me, and his green eyes were filled with tears.

"Mama, it's gonna be okay, we're gonna be okay." Aito gave me a gentle smile and it warmed my heart.

"Y-yes, you're right my love." I cuddled with my little man and counted my blessings that I still had him. Ulquiorra froze for a moment, and then he left my side. I looked up and saw that Ulquiorra had Urahara cornered, there was such a thick aura surrounding them, a strong tension filled the air. My heart sped, I knew what was happening.

"Ulquiorra!" I had to stop him, now.

Ulquiorra POV

I ignored Orihime; I needed to kill Urahara, now. How in the world did he think I was just simply going to forgive him for what he put my family through? He was not very smart, all these memories are fresh on my mind, and I have more than enough power to rid the world of his existence. I charged my hand with my green cero and readied my aim.

"Aw man, I guess the restraints didn't work on you, geez you took those glasses off without any struggle whatsoever." Urahara still sounded calm; he was still as stupid as ever.

"Shut up," I told him with all the venom I could muster. Suddenly I felt a tug on my pants, I looked down and Aito was staring up at me.

"Papa, Urahara-san is really sorry. He will help us, like he always has." Aito spoke to me firmly, but his face made it hard to take him seriously. I sighed, I guess there was no helping it, I needed this idiot's help. Aito gave a big yawn and I realized it had gotten late, he needed to get to bed.

"Aito, are you tired?"

"Um, yeah, a little," he said reluctantly. At that moment Orihime came by Aito and kneeled down next to him.

"Do you want papa to take you to bed?" she asked him softly. He nodded and rubbed his eyes while giving another yawn. I bent down to pick him up, he laid his head on my shoulder while I walked him to my room. I laid him on the futon and was pulling up the covers when my son quietly spoke to me.

"You remember me now papa?"

"Yes, of course I do Aito."

"Hmm, it's just like you said, even if your head forgot, you wouldn't." My son gave me a smile that looked so much like his mother's.

"You are my heart, I remembered. Sleep now" I got up but a little hand stopped me.

"Can you stay with me until I go to sleep papa?" His eyes were pleading, but that wasn't necessary, I would give him anything.

"Of course my son," I sat next to him and put my hand on his head. I stroked his hair until his eyes were closed and his breathing evened out. I kept looking at his face; Orihime had told me earlier today what Aito had spoken with her about during his stay in Soul Society. Imprisonment was more like it, but its hard to process the thought that anyone was harming my baby. I gently caressed Aito's little face, I remembered the day Orihime gave birth to him and I held him in my arms for the first time. I never knew such a pride as when I held my children in my arms.

I moved my arms under Aito and held him, I was careful not to wake him. I cradled my child close, I didn't want to let go of him. Not tonight, not now.

Orihime POV
I watched Ulquiorra carry Aito out of the room, then I turned my attention to Kisuke. He was still standing in the corner where Ulquiorra was about to attack him. I walked over to him and stood right in front of him, just studying his face.

"Hello Hime-chan, it's been a while," he said this softly.

"Kisuke-kun" then I wrapped my arms around him and gave him a tight hug. My friend looked so guilty, I knew what Ulquiorra had done revived some old guilt Urahara was still lugging around.

"So how has Isshin been? And the girls? I cannot believe my sweet little Ichigo joined the soul reapers, how did that happen?" I knew I was shooting questions too quickly, but I needed to know.

"Haha, slow down there Hime-chan, let's wait for your loving husband first." I pouted a bit but let it go.

"Fine, do you want something to drink, or eat? I can make something for you, actually we have some leftovers from the take out we got." He smiled at me and just shook his head.

"Ah Hime-chan, you are too good to me." I smiled warmly, then we sat down on the couch and waited for Ulquiorra.

"So, um how's Yoruichi?" I was curious if they were fighting or not. They would make up and break up so many times, it was hard to keep track, especially with my whole memory loss thing. Last I knew they were actually dating like civil adults.

"We're still together actually." My eyes widened but I tried my best to look normal. "Haha, I saw that Hime-chan, don't look so surprised, Yoruichi and I have matured since you last saw us." I found this sort of hard to believe, but I want to give them the benefit of the doubt.

"Well then I am really happy for you two." I smiled and really meant it, poor Kisuke-kun was helplessly in love with Yoruichi.

"Thank you, she's currently in the Himalayas right now. She said it was something about a new fighting technique that she needed to master, as if she needs to learn more."

"Haha, that sounds like her." We sat together for a while longer, then I started to wonder what was keeping Ulquiorra.

"I'm going to check on Ulquiorra, I'll be back in a sec."

"Ah, don't mind me Hime-chan." I walked out of the living room and went to Ulquiorra's bedroom. It was dark except for the moonlight shining through the crack in the curtains.

Ulquiorra was sitting on the futon with Aito in his arms and he was concentrating on Aito's face. The look on Ulquiorra's face was something to behold, he truly looked like an angel with the moon's glow, and his expression was serene and loving. It made my heart ache with love for this man.

"My love," I whispered to him. He looked up and smiled softly at me. I walked over and sat down right next to him.

"Isn't he incredible?" Ulquiorra's voice was reverent, as though Aito were an angel. Which he is, to me Aito is an angel, absolutely.

"Yes, yes he is. My love, are you going to be alright? It's been a while since you've attacked Urahara like that."

"I'm fine, I just needed to vent. Besides that idiot doesn't mind, he deserves it." Ulquiorra said this so coldly, almost entirely void of emotion. I simply looked at him, he knew how I felt about his animosity towards Urahara.

"I know you've forgiven him Orihime, but I cannot. You are an incredible person, but if you won't be angry with him then I will be." Ulquiorra was so stubborn at times but I loved him for it all the same.

"We're going to talk about a few more things, namely our grandchildren. If you'd like we can wait until morning."

He sighed and looked at Aito again, then he gave me a smile and shook his head.

"Its fine, I'll be there in a moment."

Ulquiorra POV

I laid my son back down on the futon and covered him with the blankets. I got up and made my way to the living room. I spotted Urahara on the couch and sat next to Orihime who was sitting across from him.

"Now tell me, how are my granddaughters?" I wanted to get straight to the point, Isshin could go to hell, all I cared about were Masaki's little girls. Her son was too much like his father for my liking.

"My dear Ulquiorra, have you no concern for your eldest grandchild, Ichigo?" Urahara was really pushing my buttons, but I would not give in to him and give him an answer. So I said nothing, the technique I knew best.

"Of course he does, he used to dote on Ichigo so much when he was just a tiny little thing." Orihime smiled, I could tell she was remembering those times.

"Yes, I do remember, what happened then?"

"Ulquiorra said that Ichigo was corrupted by his father, although I have no idea what that means since Isshin is just the loveliest person." I would've laughed at that statement if I hadn't know that Orihime was actually very serious about that, she actually likes Isshin, genuinely. That idiotic man somehow got a hold of my Masaki, he probably used some underhanded trick, I am still convinced of that.

Normal POV

"Come now Ulquiorra, he is your son-in-law after all; he has been for some time." Urahara could not quite contain his amusement at Ulquiorra's sulking.

"Well, to answer your question, Masaki's girls are perfectly fine. Isshin has done a fantastic job of keeping them under the radar. Ichigo on the other hand, his aura is much too powerful to go unnoticed. My sources tell me that Ichigo has been spending time with a reaper named Rukia, and that it was an incident with her that led soul society to find out about his massive pool of untapped reiatsu. They still haven't made the connection between his lineage and his reiatsu, though I am sure they will with time."

Orihime sighed and rubbed her temples.

"What do we do then? Masaki would not have tolerated Ichigo being with the reapers, there are too many things that could go wrong." Orihime was sure of this.

"Well, I have a plan. It's been in the workings since you two have been incommunicado, for obvious reasons of course," Urahara was quick to clarify when Ulquiorra sent him a cold look.

Suddenly Urahara paused, then he smiled.

"Ah she's back."

As soon as those words left his mouth Yoruichi glided through the door as if it wasn't made of solid matter.

"Hey guys long time no see!" Yoruichi gave them one of her famous grins and proceeded to make herself at home.

"Phase one of the plan has just begun," Urahara said cryptically.
