"Orihime, would you close the door? I can hear Hiyori arguing with her Captain on where the ice sculpture should be." Rukia said sittingon the couch accepting a glass of sake from Rangiku.
"Sure, but she sure is loud. I wonder how Captain Hitsugaya can deal with her." Orihime said as she got up to shut the door.
"I don't either." Growled Rangiku. "Not only is she painfully annoying but the Captain made her Co-Lieutenant with me! Its so embarrassing! Not to mention degrading." Rangiku sulked as she poured herself a second glass.
"Now, now, Rangiku, Hiyori is an excellent Lieutenant as well as a formidable opponent. Shiro-chan made a good choice in choosing her as a second-in-command intead of third or fourth. She does finish all her paperwork with time to spare unlike you. The only flaw in her is her amazingly short temper." Momo said from behind the dressing curtain.
"Please! Her temper as short as herself!" Rangiku exclaimed pouring herself a third glass.
"Ah, no more for you, Rangiku," Rukia said taking away the bottle of sake. "The last thing I need for you to get overly drunk and ruin my wedding!"
"Right, wouldn't want that to happen." Mumbled Rangiku.
"How does the dress look?" Momo said when she came out from behind the curtain.
"Captain!" Hiyori exclaimed. "You are supposed to put the sculpture by the red currants'!"
"Ok, ok. Stop yelling Lieutenant. I hope you do remember I am your direct superior!" Hitsugaya told Hiyori somewhat menacingly.
"Oh she knows." Shinji whispered to Hitsugaya. "That's why she has refrained from cussing at you."
"What?"
"Didn't you hear how she talked ta me when I was moving the flowers?"
"Oh, yes, as I recall it wasn't pretty."
"You could say that again. But still I'm sure you don't regret making her a Co-Lieutenant with Rangiku."
"No I don't. She is considerably more reliable than Matsumoto." Hitsugaya told Shinji as he moved the sculpture.
