St. Patrick's Day 2009
Reader's POV
The foundation and the foundation 100 are on stage the crowds' reaction is electric; there is a feeling of celebration in the air…
The women are standing slightly away from the podium, smiling, waving at the crowd, and scanning for their special visitors, who are standing in the crowd staring at them.
They have counted twenty in all.
Yuri and Karin step to the podium to speak to the crowd:
Karin: 'We told you we would make her come out for you'…. [They all look over at Tammi, grinning, as the crowd applauds] 'But we have another surprise for you and Dr. Tammi, look to the monitors' [she point to the monitors, they are now active and each has different celebrations taking place around the world, with people applauding and chanting Dr. Tammi]
As Karin steps back she glances over to her right, she sees him standing there just off stage with a proud look on his face, as he watches her… he gives her a slight nod of approval… she smiles brightly and turns back to Yuri.
Yuri: 'Tonight all of the foundation locations are broadcasting world wide so this is a very special night because all 6,000 of us are together.' [Tammi's face is in total shock, as she looks to monitors and see her patients from all over the world… it is priceless]'I have to tell you keeping a secret from her was hard but worth it'

Byakuya's POV
Everyone is watching from the suite, they were amazed at the reaction of the crowd, as the five women emerged from the stage. The warmth and love that is being shown to them now is amazing.
Byakuya is now watching his wife, she is beautiful, he notices she is wearing the entire set, he had made for her.
He watches her closely, he has felt her scanning for him, but he has hidden all of his reiatsu, this technique is taking atoll on him, and he knows he will not be able to keep it up for long, but he also knows, from looking at her, she is fighting her needs … so it is a matter of who will breaks first.
He loves her, but he is determined to teach her a lesson.
He now scans the crowd; he has found twenty Shinigami who have been sent from the clans to take her;
The word 'Damn' slips from his lips, as he picks up on one reiatsu which has just arrived.
It does not really surprise him that she is here but it does have him concerned as of the intentions of why she was sent.
He looks to his wife, and from the mischievous expression on her face she too has picked up the reiatsu, that has just arrived.
He now rolls his eyes as he now realizes this night is not going to go as easy he may have hoped, but he is determined that it will still have the same results as he planned.

VIP Suite Reader's POV
Byakuya turns to Ukitake,, ShunSui, and Urahara who have also picked up on the new arrival, ShunSui looks to Ukitake saying, "This night just keeps getting better and better"… now looking at Byakuya, he says, "you remember the last time…"
Byakuya cuts him off saying, "I know… She almost killed her"…
Urahara now speaks saying, "You must keep an eye on her….because if she confronts her in the wrong way, this time she will kill her, and everything will be lost"
Everyone looks at the four men with concern, Ichigo walks over to them, looking very irritated, asking "What the hell is going on now!!"
He turns as Renji says pointing, "Hey that is Soi Fon Taicho down there."
He looks at the four men now understanding who it is was they were referring to, walking back to the glass window he screams, "Oh Shit… give me a Break"
Ichigo looks at them saying … "Why is she here"
Rukia steps up to him, gently taking his arm, saying 'she is still governed under their Clan'
Byakuya calmly says 'they have sent her to retrieve my wife'
Ichigo looks at the men saying 'you need to talk to her; I will not allow her to hurt Karin, let alone any of them'
The four men walk back up the window, Urahara pointing as he says 'I would not worry about Karin', he now points to Hitsugaya who is standing just off stage his face shows emotion, "it seems her husband, also has picked up on the new arrival"
Matsumoto looks down at Hitsugaya, happily saying, "I am so Proud, My Taicho has become a married man"…
The women say 'AHH'…..
While the men (except Ichigo) just grin and snicker...

The Announcement ~ Reader's POV
Cheri, and Hisa have just finished speaking to the crowd, Yuzu, Jinta, Ryuken and Isshin have joined Hitsugaya, on the side of the stage. The crowd is chanting... For Dr. Tammi to speak...
As she steps to the podium ... They cheer loudly… she waves her hand to indicating for them to calm down…
Byakuya and the others watch her closely and wait to hear what it is she is going to say.
Tammi: "hello everyone" [she looks to the monitors smiling, with tears in her eyes, she is overwhelmed with emotion from what she sees.. she steps back and breaths deeply and then walks back to the podium]…… "I am humbled by all of you, and yes this is a special night indeed"
"I have some announcements to make which will be a big surprise to you all… I promise to make it short, because we came here to party and have fun"….
The crowd cheers…
Tammi: [She turns to her friends] "these women that you see before you are the best of the best… they have excelled beyond words… one in particular comes from this very same city, we are in today, the very same high school as the students who are on this stage today"..
She looks over to Isshin and nods, who brings Yuzu and Ryuken on stage.
Ichigo looks with surprise that his sister and father have taken stage.
Ishida seeing his father raises an eyebrow, but remains silent
Hisa, Karin, Yuri, and Cheri look around, but remain silent
Tammi: [turns looking at group ;then back to the crowd] " that is why, with a bittersweet heart, I am announcing in three weeks time, the then Mrs. Karin Hitsugaya, will have completed all of her perquisites from NYU needed to start her medical residency here at KaraKura Hospital under watchful eye of Dr(s) Isshin Kurosaki and Ryuken ishida."
The crowd applauds and loud cheers ..."Karin Chan"
On Karin's face is look of total shock… she watches as Tammi continues speaking
Tammi: [waving her hand to calm the crowd] 'Karin and her sister Yuzu along with both Yuri and Hisa, who also will have also completed all of their studies needed to for they degrees at NYU, will set up and run our Eastern Office out of the beautiful city of KaraKura Town; while Cheri and I will continue to operate out of our Western Office in New York City. This expansion of the foundation business practices will help us continue to provide the exceptional care we strive to be known for'
As she finishes her announcement the Crowd in the ballroom and on the monitors goes wild with approval…
Everyone in the VIP suite is shocked; Karin opens and closes her mouth, as she looks to her Father and Dr. Ryuken ishida; who are now standing on both sides of her and Yuzu.
Inoune still looking at the stage says 'Ishida did you know anything about this' …
Ishida looks at them saying 'no I did not know about it' …. 'but it makes sense that they would have business relationship with the hospital'
He continues as he looks to Byakuya saying, 'with all due respect, Kuchiki Taicho your wife's military strategies is beyond impressive, it is astonishing,'
He now turns looking back at the stage saying, 'she has made this announce to all of the foundation locations around the world, Karin Sama, has no choice but to follow her orders' 'ensuring their protection she has assigned not only two of her personal guards, their father but my father who is also a Quincy to watch over both her and Yuzu'
Byakuya, he eyes never leaving her saying, 'Yes, she has always been a worthy opponent'

Let's get this Party Started ~ Reader's POV
Ichigo is amazed and happy that his little sister will be returning home, but he is still concerned, as he asks "why does she feel they need that much protection"
Byakuya quickly looks at him then back to his wife saying "keep watching she is not done yet"
Toushirou is standing with some form of relieve that his wife will not be away from him in hiding somewhere, but he is still concerned over the present danger that is in the crowd.
Tammi looks to Karin waving her to join her at the podium saying, 'as I recall when you grow up here you were regarded as a Soccer Demon of sorts… right'...
Hei and Kieta steps out screaming 'yeah ...Karin Chan … is the world's greatest soccer player'' as the crowd laughs...
Tammi nods her head in agreement, smiling she looks out at the twenty-one in the crowd, then back to Karin, as she says… 'Karin… the Soccer Field…. isn't that a special place for you…a lot of battles were fought there ...'
Byakuya says, "Where we go"
Karin grins as she also looks out on the crowd and their special guess saying 'yes… it is the perfect place ...Especially around 1100… I am thinking we will have something there soon'.
Ichigo yells, "What the hell..."
Tammi now laughs looking at the crowd and on stage at the foundation 100, saying 'you see, she finishes my thoughts for me, that is why she will be returning here to be with you in KaraKura Town, but as promised I am done with my announcement'
Now five small children have run to them carrying bouquets of flowers, Hisa, Yuri, Cheri and Karin receive roses but for Tamiski they give her roses with cherry blossoms beautifully mixed in.
She smells the flowers and her eyes quickly flash... as she scans the room again for him but she sees nothing and feels nothing.
Holding the flowers close, with a smirk on her face she stares up at the dark booth… thinking, "he figured out I have been tracking him and now he hides from me, Oh this game is really on"
Byakuya is watching her eyes grinning with satisfaction …thinking, 'the look on her face …now she for sure knows I am here, and I have taken her advantage away'
Standing here she now shakes off the thoughts in her mind, as she turns to the DJ screaming "Mr. DJ …. If you would Music and Dancing"
Music: "No one on the corner has swagger like us"……"Swagger like us, swagger-swagger like us"……("No one on the corner")
As the Music sounds, the lights flash brightly as balloons, streamers and confetti falls from the ceiling blanketing everyone… it is a fascinating sight
Music: "Mr. West is in the building…..Swagger on a hundred thousand trillion…..("No one on the corner") Aiyyo I know I got it first…..I'm Christopher Columbus, y'all just the pilgrims Thanksgiving, do we even got a question?.....Hermes pastel, I passed the dressing…..My attitude is tattooed.."
The teenagers scream and start dancing to the Music……… The five women have vanished from the stage…..
Byakuya standing grinning saying "It has begun"
The time is 10:50 pm
Toushirou has entered into the VIP suite, he is on edge…. He approaches Byakuya and Urahara saying, 'I will not allow my wife to be hurt'
Byakuya looks out to the crowd, and beyond he sees her reiatsu and the others talking in the suites behind stage, he turns back to Toushirou saying, ' Your wife has been trained by mine, and she like mine is experiencing the effects of the necklace, so I doubt very seriously that she will get hurt… it is the others we need to worry about.'
ShunSui says looking to Hitsugaya 'That is why she is confronting those who have come for her, in a place where these people will not be harmed'…
"She refuses to run" Yoruichi says as she stands in the doorway,
"she has decided that … As she put it' … .Her fingers are now motioning in quotes signs as she says 'I refuse to go back into exile …. I am tried of living in the shadows and making those who are around me live in the shadows too … I will kill anything or anyone that get's in my way of being free to do what I want with my life'
Hearing this Byakuya quietly raises an eyebrow, wondering what his wife meant by those words.
Yoruichi laughing... saying "I forgot just how much of a hothead she can be"
Walking over to Byakuya she says, 'it seems from her emotional state, you have made your resolve'
They both stand face to face, as she says, "I would caution you…she is very powerful, you will need to calm her before she really looses it"
He smirks at her until she laughingly says... "With Soi Fon here it… it will not be that easy"... his face becomes irritated.
She now smirks at him as she turns and starts to walk toward Urahara saying "Kisuke, I think we should go and leave Little Byakuya to handle his wife"
Byakuya clutches his fists as he gives her a look of Death.
Urahara looks to Yoruichi, his face is sad like a disappointed child, as he says "oh come on Yoruichi, can't we stay… it was just getting to the good part, do you remember the last time this happened"
Yoruichi says "YES" 'and NO… I am not getting in the middle of those two again' she turns pointing at Byakuya saying "it is his fault"… 'AGAIN'… 'Let him fix it' ... 'AGAIN'
She heads toward the door grabs Urahara, dragging him by the collar, she stops at Ukitake and discreetly hands him a camera she grins as she quietly says, 'Yuri told me to get this to you, it has her special film in it, she said you would know what to do'
Ukitake carefully taking the camera looks to ShunSui, both men's faces light up like they won the Soul Society Lotto….
Urahara still with a sad face, as he is dragged out of the room looks to Ukitake whispering 'make sure I get a copy'.
Ukitake gets his friend a discreet thumbs up, as he turns to see Ichigo and Hitsugaya both stand before Byakuya, saying, "What the hell is she talking about, before" …
Byakuya rolls his eyes and says, "That is not your concern"
Ukitake and ShunSui, start snickering as they say 'don't worry just be patient and watch'.
Byakuya [Sweat drop]…looks at the two men saying nothing.
