"What?!" Sakura demanded angrily, her arms thrown out in frustration.
"The Council cannot allow you to bring in others from a separate dimension." The female reaper replied calmly.
"Says the women who frequently changes dimensions!" Sakura protested.
"Captain Haruno! You would do well to restrain yourself!" Shigekuni snapped.
"While my home is destroyed!?"
"Sakura! Calm yourself." Byakuya said, seeking her eyes to let her know he was on her side.
She sighed and sat back down.
"Council is dismissed."
"They're standing by while the Soul Society crumbles!" Sakura said, raking her hands brusquely through her hair.
"Did you sense it?" Byakuya asked.
"What? The evil in the air, the reek on the wind? Yes, I see it and I smell it."
"We may have to take matters into our own hands." Ichigo said.
"Well met." Uryu agreed.
"First things first, we need to clear out the upper ranks." Yoruichi said, dancing lightly across the handrail with Soi Fong in tow.
Sakura shifted in the darkness, stealing away into Byakuya's headquarters. If anyone saw them...well, elicit affair was their best excuse...
Beside her, Yoruichi was flash stepping her way towards Uryu's room as Soi Fong sprinted lightly for Ichigo's across the tiled roofs.
They would have to move quickly...particularly for the first phase of their plan...
