(4th Barracks)

Soi Fon was in bed, again, and will be for 2 or so more days. She was thinking about her fight with Naruto. "He was holding back." She told herself in angry. "And yet, he managed to beat me like I was a mere child fresh out of school." She was sheathing in anger. "Why?" She finally fell asleep with tears in her eyes. "Why didn't you take me with you...?"

Toshiro was in his room thinking about what Nel had told him. 'The ones that made the army, the one with the most eyes, the one with the least eyes and the one with the forever smile.' Toshiro repeated in his head."That makes no sense. Everyone has two eyes. And no one smiles forever." He said to himself. "Maybe it was just a distraction to throw me off the trail." He concluded. "Most likely, Naruto is the leader of this 'Arrancar' army, but she did say former 3rd Espada. Whatever an Espada is." Toshiro was more confused now than ever.

(Back at training cave)

Naruto and Yoruichi we're watching, once again, Ichigo train. "So...?" Naruto started.

"So... what?" Yoruichi looked at him confused.

"You going to tell me what's up with you and our little bee Soi Fon?" Naruto asked, interested in the story between the two.

"Oh? What brought this on?" Yoruichi gave a grin.

"Near the end of the fight, she was yelling something about training to pass 'her', and then she yelled at me calling me Yoruichi. She wasn't fighting me at the end there. She was fighting you. I saw in her eyes the resentment, betrayal, admiration and behind all that love. All of those feelings and more where in her eyes as she fought me near the end, thinking of you I might add. So... care to tell me what happened?" He asked.

Yoruichi thought about it. Na harm in telling him her greatest regret. "Well... you remember the time we told you about Shinji and the others?" Naruto nodded. "Well, at the time, Soi Fon was my body guard, not that I needed one." She gave a grin.

"I'm sure."

"Well, she'd train well into the night long after others would have called it a day so she could get better. I even helped her with her form and other things. So... I guess..." Yoruichi trailed off.

"She grew attached to you." Naruto finished.

"Yea. Almost, if not already, an obsession. Then, when I left the way I did..." She left that hanging.

"It destroyed her." Naruto finished.

"Yea. I didn't want to leave, and I could have taken her with us but... she wanted to be a captain one day, I couldn't take that away from her." Yoruichi said solemnly.

"But you didn't give her the chance to choose what she waited more. But I suppose the risk would have been too great for you to take. But she feels betrayed on a level that no one else feels, at least for now." Naruto said.

"At least for now?" Yoruichi looked confused.

"Momo. Aizen has played with the girl's emotions to a point where she'll do anything for him. Well, almost anything. When he betrays them she will feel it just as bad as Soi Fon." Naruto gave his thoughts on the matter.

Yoruichi just nodded. Maybe she did choose for Soi Fon.

"Regardless we must hope that Ichigo can achieve Bankai, Rukia's execution is in two days." Naruto looked at Ichigo still trying to get Bankai. Naruto had no doubt that he could get it, but in time was a long shot.

"Naruto, question... why don't you just go in, take them all down, and save Rukia yourself?" Yoruichi asked.

"The answer to that my sexy cat women, is simple. I'm too lazy..."

"..."

"..."

"Yea right, no seriously, why don't you?"

"It's not my place to save her. She did nothing for me, not that I won't if Ichigo can't, but she saved Ichigo's life and his family. So he owes her. If I just walk down street and save her, his pride will be wounded. And trust me, men are nothing if there are at least a bit prideful in at least one thing in their life." Naruto told her.

Which was true, she knew, hell even she was prideful, being the 'Goddess of Flash' meant being at the top of all things speedy. Then Naruto came along, she taught him Flash step, he made Echo Flash. Something faster than flash step. And she couldn't even learn it. It wounded her pride at times. If not all the time.

"So...if the soul society was going to execute me...?" She looked at him with a little hope in her voice.

"I would rip the universe a new asshole to get to you, save you, while looking badass doing it, and then we would hot passionate love at my or your place." Naruto gave a cheeky grin.

She put her head on his shoulder. "You'll have to wait for that reward." She grinned.

"Oh, then do tell me oh goddess of beauty and teasing, how do I get such a reward?" Naruto lend into Yoruichi.

"In time... in time..."

"Oh~~~ you sexy minx."

(Next day)

Naruto yawned. He felt something nice on his chest. Or a few something's. He looked down, he saw Yoruichi sleeping on his chest as well as her impressive rack. 'That's it... I can almostdie happy.' Naruto thought to himself. 'Best moment...'

"Naruto! Yoruichi! We have a problem!" Naruto heard Ichigo yell.

'Ruin!' Naruto thought in a depressed mood.

"Huh? What is it Ichigo?" She asked.

"Renji just told me. Rukia's execution is has been moved to tomorrow!" He told them.

"Well... that's just great." Naruto got up and looked pissed. "Sorry kid, but your light training ends now. We're talking it up, and not just a notch either." Naruto said in a very real and serious voice.

"But, you can't help him getting Bankai... can you?" Yoruichi's only reason for not helping Ichigo at the moment was she couldn't teach him how to get Bankai.

"No, that is something only he can do on his own. I on the other hand..." He gave a smile the creped the shit out of Ichigo. Every alarm bell, warning sigh and every instinct in Ichigo's head was telling him to flee for his life. "I can give... incentive..." Naruto began to laugh, a laugh that would put Orochimaru, Madara and the Kyuubi to shame. Although Kyuubi would be more proud then ashamed that Naruto was better than her at making an evil laugh.
