and now Harribel's tied in with Starrk's pack, sweet.
Question: Since she's a shark, wouldn't her pup hatch in her belly then be born? or would it be like a human baby?

Ch 42 : I am loving this story and can not wait for the next chapter to come out. I know that it is such an emotional roller coaster for all that are concerned. It is good to see another side to Stark we knew that it was there but is something good to see. And now the third will be ingrained into their group. I can not wait to see what happens next.

Please please continue the story! It is the only one that I have bookmarked and check on religiously. I love the Karen/Grim pairing and can't wait to hear more about the lives of the children.

This keep gettting tense, and i know its build up to something big¡ i wonder how much time for things to reach boiling point. Last chapter i though Harribel pregnacy was gonna be a problem, that she would not risk rebelion and her cub with it, but now i think Toshiro might have a big impact on her, and if she claims Soifon and feel her contemp for Aizen also... she is really likely to join Karin's group.... not to mention that she practically just joined the "collectives households" as you called at some point that move things around.
It's funny how a human girl.... a pet by Arrancar standars, managed to , even if indirectly, forge so many connections and amase so much political power, even if she does not believe it, she just might pull off being in the trone and get help to do so.

Question, any clues on Vindula's talen? it can't just be to be pretty¡

I would like to let you know that I refresh this page at least once a day even though I know there won't be an update because I want to know what happens next. This fic is one of my favorites because its so intricate and it's a topic most people haven't even THOUGHT of. I love the children, and the way you portray the changing dynamics, and all of the other nuances of the story.

So please don't stop!!!!

OMG I just adore this story soo much! I'm sorry that it doesn't get as much attention as some other stories but you are an excellent writer. The world you have created is awesome and I love where it is going. This has become one of my favorite AUs. Props to you. It is lovely! I would love to see Starrk falling in love and finding his mate <3

Ahhh I seriously cannot get enough of this story.
I just love it.
How the characters have grown & how you have portrayed them is amazing.
I am so excited to see how this story wraps up too.*even though I secretly hope it just keeps going hahaha*
Black fox has done an splendid job so far aswell. Renji/new chapters are so we of my favorite. Love that tatted redhead hehe.
I look forward to next week's chapter.
Merry Christmas to you too. Hope you had a very enjoyable day ^-^

@Darkstar

Oh don't you worry, I don't intend on starting a riot.......yet hehehehe.
*preps Molotov Cocktail*

But you got to admit that Aizen is the kind of person who would totally do something like that. He would get off on it and could totally bullshit his way through explaining its necessity do to the battles with the Swarm. And the thing is......from a certain point of view he would be right. It's a harsh pragmatic approach but the loss of so much manpower isn't going to help anyone in the long run. In all honesty the only pregnancies I am rooting for are the ones with the mothers who actually want to keep the baby of their own free will or the ones who chose to approach their claim holder and actually endeavored to get pregnant and it wasn't just sprung on them. It would also go a long way to establishing him as the true villain of this fic. Let me explain, he has kind of been painted as he 'designated villain' despite his soldiers being no better and dabbling in the same activities as him. This would be the action that would set him apart from all that and give the rest of the Espada, the ones who follow their one little rule anyway, a real reason to betray him and make it so they and Karin's group stopped looking like hypocrites who adhere to a double standard in regards to him.



Review time!!!

Ok I'll admit it, the scene with Hana and Starrk got me right in the gut. The one Arrancar I have truly come to care for and hope makes it through this alive crying over his little Hana was magnificent.Woe betide the fool who fucks with his little girl. And now he is going to try and look out for Harribel's kid in case aizen decides to nip it in the bud.

And the crowing moment for me at least of this chapter:

“I will take your cub as a fraccion, but in return I want you to Claim Soi Fon once the baby is born. You do right by your girls and your current pet, so I figure you’ll do right by her too.”

.........yes

'I want you to Claim Soi Fon"

..YES

"Claim Soi Fon'

YES!!!!!!

I can't say it enough but I adore Soi fon and love it whenever you include her even in small ways in a chapter. How far along is she again though? Hopefully nothing happens between now and the birth that puts a strain on Ggio's claim and breaks it prematurely.

Given Harribels character it is natural that under any other circumstances she would jump at the chance to aid another female and stick it to Barragan but it is also understandable that she would be concerned about how Toshiro would view the situation. I doubt he would have any problem with it seeing as how Soi is not only a former captain but still someone he considers a comrade. from what we have seen in canon and besides both being two of the youngest captains next to Byakuya, they both had an iron clad sense of duty and fought side by side. I wouldn't call them friends but they are each the others fellow soldier and having lived the past 15 years under hollow and Aizen rule would be able to understand each other.

He sure as shit would not want to see her get hurt any more than she already has been and isn't petty enough to get jealous at the prospect of having to "share" harribel if it means keepinmg her alive and if worse comes to worse and Harribel gets cold feet, one of her fraccion could claim her since they would be in similar or perhaps higher power than Ggio. And being Harribels fraccion and having similar mindsets would not harm Soi or lord themselves over her.

You have really given a new layer to Harribel. She understands that she is in a very vulnerable position and doesn't want to commit to anything that could endanger what she has obtained. It's not out of malice that she hesitates but survival instinct.

and dun dun dunnnnn.......Aizen finds out next week and the title "Epidemic's Darkness" sounds very foreboding.

And a Merry Christmas to you as well as Black Fox and I know that I have said it over and over again but I love this story, currently the best one in the bleach section on either site.

-waits patiently for the next chapter-

I would just like to say that I have been enjoying your story very much. I think it also makes much better sense than the canon. I know the Gotei 13 are the "heros" but it feels like Kube was too lazy to think it thru and just threw the espanda away.

I am loathe to admit that while I am an avid reader, I rarely review. Some very wonderful stories only have a select following. If you want badly written, check out the Naruto stories. Now there's some stuff to make you ill. Then there's the reviews to those heinous acts. All gushing praise for something that came out of an 8 year-old's mouth after his first sex ed class to quote the Third Fang. Ones that drive me up the wall are the ones where everyone is gay. I have nothing against same-sex pairings, some of my friends are gay. One or two couples I can handle, but the whole universe? And the plot-holes, can't forget the holes big enough to drive a starship through. (SHUDDER)
Enough grousing. I've watched your style grow and expand as you've kept writing, you do wonderful work. While I dislike how The Real King ended, it was a good story throughout. My one gripe for Prize of Victory is that there is almost nothing about the Escapees. We see them in snatches and bits but I have yet to see a single solid chapter about them. I think the Escapees helping to rescue the kids is an interesting idea. Why is Aizen obsessed with Grantz is my big question. While his brutality is nothing short of inspired, why the fixation on someone who truly can't fight back? Aizen is one twisted blighter and he needs to be taken down. Karin and the others have their hands full on trying to kill him, can't wait to see what you do.
