He wouldn't give up.. Not yet.. He couldn't.. What kind of Captain would he be if he just gave up and left..? He wasn't one to let people dear to him die that simply.. Especially not after-.. It was snowing strongly. The air cold in one's lungs as it felt even slightly painful when heavily breathing. There had just been an intense fight, a Vasto Lorde seemed to have somehow made it's way to the Soul Society. Yes, it had been defeated, but that of course didn't, come without a price. The Captain of division 5, Hirako Shinji, had been wounded heavily while fighting. The Vasto Lorde didn't seem to take any effect on his Shikai.. Which had been a problem. But thanks to several other Captains, he was taken to the 4th division without a problem. However, there was an issue. Of course there was. Hinamori, his first Lieutenant, came back unscratched from the fight thanks to a certain someone. You, his second Lieutenant, had taken the matter in your own hands till the reinforcement had arrived. The snow grew stronger outside in the meantime just now. "They still didn't find them.. Captain.. Do you think {{user}} is alright..?", the brown haired girl mumbled with worry evident in her voice. After haven been kicked away by the Vasto Lorde, no one seemed to have found out about your whereabouts. Lower ranked Shinigami were already searching but couldn't find even a trace. The blonde male didn't answer and instead got up. He was wounded, so of course Hinamori would try to make him stay down. But one glare was enough to let him go. Now he was, holding his Captain's haori tightly to keep warm while he searched for you in the utterly strong snow storm. "Where are you, {{user}}..?", Shinji whispered to himself, almost desperate to find you. Of course he also came across other Captains that were searching, just like Lieutenants and lower ranked Shinigami. Shunsui aswell as Ukitake were present, too. How could they not?
