Author's note: I do not own Bleach or Naruto. Go bug the original author's on how much you love their characters. Bug me on how much you enjoy reading this particular story. ;)

It starts off with a short flash back I was originally going to have as the only part of Chapter 4 titled "To Understand the Present" as in, the flashback is just briefly before the present time, just in another world, and it's needed to, well, understand the current situation. But the flashback couldn't stand well on it's own, so Chapter 5 is added to it, making it just one bigger Chapter 4.

Much to Kimi's and your delight, I finally got it up! I know it's been awhile. Sorry. Summer school, tennis, and stuff.

Please review!

"Oh no, I'm late!" cried Hanataro. "I have to save the injured!" The small soul reaper from squad four came running up to Urahara Shouten. "I hope they are all still alive…" He paused, and knocked on the door. He was a timid soul reaper, and even if Rukia, Ichigo, and the others were deeply wounded, it would be against his character to come rushing on in.

"Down here!" yelled a voice that sounded much like Urahara. Hanataro opened the door cautiously and looked to see that the way down to the basement was wide open. He carefully climbed down the latter, for he was known to slip a lot, and he made it to the bottom only to see Mr. Urahara intently looking at a door-like machine of some sort.

"Excuse me!" Harataro called. "Where are the injured?" He quickly glanced around to see that no one except the Urahara Shouten crew was there.

"Well, if you would just step over here for a little bit…" Urahara grabbed him and quickly guided him over to door-like machine. The next thing poor little Hanataro knew was that something was put onto his chest and then he was pushed into the door-like contraption.

"Ahhhhhh!" he screamed. It was the last thing the Urahara Shouten crew heard of Hanataro while he was still in their world.

"Anything come up, Tessai?" Hat-and-Clogs asked.

"Not yet, sir," Tessai replied as he looked over a screen tracking the whereabouts of the little guy they just sent through the teleporter. "The tracker still says he is between two places."

"We'll just have to wait, then."

Out of the white portal-like thing came a small soul reaper with short black hair and light blue eyes.

"Ahhhh!" The little guy landed on top of Team Kakashi in the Fifth Hokage's office. It took a moment for the situation to be absorbed in by everyone.

"Please forgive me!" cried Hanataro to the group he fell on. "I was pushed in by Mr. Urahara and… and… I'm sorry!"

"It's all right," said Kakashi. "I think we're just as surprised as you are."

"Hat-and-Clogs? What did he do?" demanded Ichigo.

"Ichigo, Rukia! You're all right! The Soul Society was informed that you were injured, and they sent me to Mr. Urahara's to help heal you…."

"Well, we're all fine here… well maybe Ichigo's head needs to be examined a bit… I think his brain is missing." Rukia smirked.

"What did you just say, Rukia?"

"Your brain—"

"Well, at least it's better than your's!"

"What are you talking about? I'm not the one shouting about Aizen at these poor people." Rukia put on her polite act and said oh-so-very-sweetly, "Please forgive us. I think we have a misunderstanding, but it's all this idiot's fault." She pointed directly to Ichigo, only making him more enraged. Her older brother, Byakuya just looked at her, very surprised.

"Why I ought to—," Strawberry then went and punched Renji.

"What the hell was that for?" yelled Renji, lying on the floor and rubbing his face.

"I can't punch a girl, but I can sure as hell punch you," replied Ichigo in a really pissed-off tone. Rukia stood out her tongue at Renji.

I believe all of them need their brain's examined, thought Hitsugaya and Sasuke simultaneously.

"ALL RIGHT, ENOUGH!" yelled the fifth. "I can't take this anymore. You, wimp," pointing to Hanataro, "explain how you got here."

"Well, as I said, the Soul Society sent me to heal this group here, but then Mr. Urahara went and shoved me in this machine…. Oh! And stuck something to me." He fumbled around his chest until he found a round tracking object, pulling it off and showing everyone. "Uhh…and then I ended up here."

"Well, that's proof that Urahara screwed up," stated Hitsugaya.

"How do you know that?" asked Renji.

"It's obviously a tracking device. He has no idea where he sent us, and he used Hanataro here to find out where we are."

"Very good, boy genius," said a voice out of no where.

"That's Hitsugaya-Taichou to you."

"Where's that voice coming from?" said pretty much everyone in the room.

"Uhhhh…. I believe right here…" Hanataro held up the tracking device that Urahara stuck on him. Everyone looked straight at it, aghast. There was no visible speaker on it anywhere.

"Now, Hanataro, where are you?" it asked.

"Ummmm…. Where is this?" he turned to Team Kakashi, looking for an answer.

"The Village Hidden in the Leaves-- Konoha," replied Sakura.

"I'm not aware of that place. Any other soul reapers besides you, Ichigo, Renji, Byakuya, Rukia, and the boy genius there?"

"Hitsugaya-Taichou…" the boy genius muttered under his breath.

"Umm…. Do you guys know if there are any soul reapers around?" the little soul reaper asked Team Kakashi.

"Soul reapers? Are those guys a secret squad loyal to Orochimaru or something?" Naruto stood up, looking straight at Hanataro for an answer, anger lurking in his face. The words "Soul Reaper" sounded like a bad guy ninja group to him.

"I suppose not…" replied the tracking device. "And no, Soul Reapers are good guys." Naruto sat down, looking very disappointed. "I'll have to research these details later. Right now, Head-Captain Yamamoto needs all of you to return to the soul society. Some random arrancar are out… NOT Aizen," the tracker was able to sense Ichigo's sudden alertness. "Every soul reaper in this room, step over to the northwestern side of the current room you are in. You cannot leave that room, or this tracker will loose it's connection to Teleporter. And then….well.. let's just say we can't get you back so easily."

The group of soul reapers moved all over to the northwestern side of the room, as soon as Byakuya and Hitsugaya pointed it out to the rest of the group, who have no sense of direction. Team Kakashi and Lady Tsunade moved to a different area of the room to get out of their way.

"All right, is there a window of some sort in the room?" asked the tracking device.

"Yes, over to the northeast side and--" replied Byakuya.

"Couldn't get more perfect. Hanataro, place this tracker in the middle of the room while the northeastern window is open. When I count to ten—in honor of you, little boy genius—you will all jump out the window."

A scowl stretched itself across Hitsugaya's face. "HITSUGAYA-TAI—"

"Are you nuts?" screamed Ichigo. "We're a couple stories up!"

"No worries. I got this all figured out."

The group readied themselves, waiting for the tracker to get to ten.

"Are you all ready, Ururu?" asked Hat-and-Clogs.

"Yes, sir, I will press the button and pull the lever as soon as you say ten."

"Tessai and Jinta, you ready over there?"

"Yeah, yeah, I'll press this button and Tessai will force open the gate of the Teleporter."

"Good, then I'll start counting now. One…"

"Eight…Nine….TEN!"

Ichigo and the others charged for the window, excited to finally make it back to a familiar place. As they each took a leap out the window, they each landed… landed…. Landed… on the streets below them? Wait, that's not how it's supposed to go.

"Damn you, Hat-And-Clogs! What are you trying to do? Kill us? If this is your idea of a joke, I'll show you what I think is funny," an angry orange head said as he walked back up the stairs to the Hokage's office. Lucky for this group, they were soul reapers who could survive such heights.

"Maybe we were too far north and not enough west," suggested Renji.

"Aw, I never heard of something so stupid in my life! Now your worse than Ichigo!" yelled Rukia. Apparently, there is a "Whose Worse Than" competion going among everyone in this story.

"Everyone just quit your bickering. We'll get this sorted out when we get back to the tracking device," said Hitsugaya.

"But we weren't suppose to leave the room..." pointed out Hanataro.

They re-entered the Hokage's office only to discover that Team Kakashi and the Hokage were no longer there.
