Renji's Perspective:

As soon as the sun was up, I went to find Taichou. I had to know who I was with! I found the taichou outside the squad six barracks.

"Yes, Renji?" He asked before I opened my mouth.

"Taichou, may I please know who is in my group?" I asked, bowing my head.

"No," he said, as he continued walking.

Ass.

"T-Taichou!" I repeated, reaching for him.

"Do you not want that hand Abarai?" He asked.

I immediately put both hands by my side. Byakuya finally sighed and took out a folded piece of paper.

"If you must know, you're not with Rukia," he said, throwing the paper over his shoulder.

Taichou walked away as I stood there, dazed, reading the paper over and over again; hoping I was just reading it wrong.

But I wasn't.

The Rules:

-There are fifty people in each group.

-Each group should be 15 miles apart from each other during the war.

-We have to stay in our zone at all times.

-We can't interfere with each others groups.

Well, crap!

I reread the people in my group; the only people I knew were Hanataro, Kiyone, and Rikichi. That was nice! Gee, I wonder what else they have in store for us!____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

"Nani!"

"I-It's true! Taichou told us that just a few minutes ago!

Poor Rikichi caught me in a bad mood and decided to tell me we had to be with our group ALL THE TIME until the war is over!

"Where was I?" I couldn't remember Taichou saying any of this.

Rikichi shrugged, "Staring out the window for Rukia?" he joked.

I stared him down; I was NOT in the mood for laughing.

"Sorry, fuku-taichou," he bowed then walked away.

Okay, not everything was bad. So Rukia wasn't in my group, and I just learned I had to spend every second with my group practicing, and we had to eat together too. I sighed, I was lying to myself. My fantastic life just went down the tubes, and the worst part: How would I know if Rukia is okay during the Winter War?

Comment please! Also, if you guys know any good fighting fanfics could you tell me please, cause i need to have ideas on how to explain the Winter War. Thanxx
