Squad 4 quickly rounded together with the help of their third seat. Iemura was shouting orders over all the commotion, "Groups 2 and 3 care for Captain Kuchiki! Groups 7, 10, 11 and 13 all help to heal Captain Komamura! Lieutenant Abarai is to receive level six surgery. Group 8 and 9, prepare to move out. Let's go!" Squad 4's Captain and Lieutenant were no where to be found. They're busy back at the barracks, healing Toshiro and Hinamori. Squad 4 members were busy running around. "Come on, let's move it, everyone! These people are seriously injured!" Voices shouting around the bustle of people could be heard.

Kuchiki was unconscious, receiving immediate surgery on the floor. Abarai was carried off on a stretcher, most likely to Squad 4's barracks, for level six surgery. Komamura was hobbling his way off the hill, refusing the healings from Squad 4 members. Another team was sent to heal the Ryoka. After the stunt Aizen pulled, the Ryoka are now revered as the saviors of the Soul Society.

Seconds later, Retsu arrived at the site, riding on her sword's shikai form. She immediately received an status report and left to help the others.

The trio of Captain's quickly left after that. Excusing themselves, they and their lieutenants went to Shunsui's barracks.

Stepping through the thresholds, Hajime immediately grabbed the nearest shinigami and pulled him over. "Bring a pot of tea to our room," he murmured before sending him off.

"Hajime," Jushiro scolded, "be nice to Shunsui's subordinates."

Hajime ruffled his robes and huffed, making Shunsui laugh.

"He's just caring for you," Shunsui explained, remembering their friend's scratchy voice from earlier. "Now, let's go relax. All this commotion is making my back sore," he complained as he led the way to a private room.

"It's because you're old," Hajime lightly teased.

Jushiro and Hajime followed after the eldest with their Lieutenants trailing behind.

Coming up to the room, Shunsui slid open the door and offered his guests a seat. Not long after, the shinigami Hajime pulled aside arrived, carrying with him tea.

Once settled, Hajime turned to the Lieutenants, "Do you want to check on your friends?" He addressed the two, knowing some of their close comrades were recently injured.

Shuhei seemed to hesitant before he nodded to his captain.

"Then go."

Shuhei bowed before shunpoing out the room. He needed to check on Hinamori and Abarai.

"And you, Nanao?"

"I'm fine, sir. Thank you." Nanao bowed her head.

Hajime nodded before turning his attention back to his friends. The three chatted quietly, drinking tea to help soothe themselves from the hectic day.

Late at night in the Seireitei, at a certain intersection, shinigamis searched for their friends.

"Hey! Rukia!" Abarai shouted. "Where the hell could she have gone?" He muttered under his breath, scowling. Walking past one of the paths and searching for his childhood friend, he disappeared behind another wall.

"Orihime! Orihime, where'd you disappear to?" Ishida yelled for Inoue. Ishida walked into the opening, paused and looked around, before continuing onward.

"Shuhei," Hajime called. "Shuhei, what did you get yourself dragged into this time?" He mumbled to himself. Hajime searched for his missing Lieutenant.

"Ichigo! Come out and fight me, you bastard!" Zaraki bellowed, waving his sword in the air.

Yachiru walked into the scene, "Too much free time on their hands." She continued to faithfully follow her captain and caretaker.
