"But Tsunade-sama! We can't go to Soul society! I have to take care of the shop, and Sakura needs to help at the hospital! Hinata is busy training, and for Temari you need Gaara's permission!" Ino exclaimed as Tsunade finished explaining what she wanted the kunoichi to do.
Tsunade looked at her calmly and stated "I talked it over with Gaara at the last Chuunin Exams. He said Temari may go to show that Suna supports Soul Society as well. Does that answer your question, Ino?"
Ino stayed quiet. 'That's a relief' Sakura thought to herself.
"Oh, and a Genin will be going with you as well. You may know her. Of course you will, Sakura" Tsunade added with a knowing smile. All the kunoichi then left to get there things, leaving Tsunade and Shizune in the room.
'If I know her, who is she?' Sakura asked Inner Sakura.
'I dunno. Don't ask me' Inner said.
'You're a bitch sometimes. You know that, right?'
'You are too, don't worry' Inner replied, then slamming a mental door in Sakura's face.
"Hey, ugly, where are you going? A familiar voice asked her.
"Hello, Sai. I'm going home to pack for a long mission" she replied with a sigh.
"Where to?" he asked, falling into stride beside her.
"Soul Society" she replied.

Grimmjow's eyes stayed open as he died slowly, watching the other Espada die as well. They were killed by their lord, Aizen, as they were trying to help the intruders into Hueco Mundo.
'We were foolish. Not me, not Ulquiorra. Not Halibel, not Stark. None of us were strong enough to defeat him. He's too powerful. And now…and now were dead' the bluette thought. His body disappeared quickly in a cloud of raietsu (sp?) and he looked at the look of contempt on Aizen's pretty-boy face. So he did the best thing he could, the most defiant thing possible in his state, and flipped Pretty Boy the finger. Then all of his body disappeared, and he was gone.

Sakura was hanging out at her new Division's headquarters. Her head was still spinning from when she found out that her little sister was the Genin who was coming along on the mission. She was glad that her sister, Amaya, was assigned to the 13th Division, though. Captain Ukitake seemed nice and caring, and she didn't feel too bad about leaving her sister there alone. Ino was assigned to the 8th Division, and Sakura felt bad for her, since Captain Shunsui was a total pervert. Hinata and Tenten were assigned to the 6th Division, where Tenten wouldn't stop drooling over Renji, and Temari was placed into the 2nd Division.
Then she looked over at her own Captain, who was drinking sake with Rangiku. Assistant Captain Yachiru was yelling at the other Shinigami for not getting her enough candy at the store.
Sakura then blocked all the sounds out of her head and tried to relax. She was the 3rd seat in this Division, so she had more responsibility than any of her other friends. She felt bad for making Ikkaku 4th seat, but the Captain insisted it was necessary. So in an hour she had to go to the Academy to pick up the graduated students. So until then, she was gonna take a nap under this maple tree.
