Sajin looked to his left, seeing Hirabayashi sitting on the floor. He then looked across to the room to Ashimitsu. A sense of defeat washed over the room. He placed a hand on Hirabayashi's shoulder. "Are you alright, Ryo?"
"I am." she answered, placing her hand on his and nodded towards Ashimitsu. "Go tend to him."
Sajin rose from the floor and walked over to the newly appointed captain. "Captain." He knelt down to speak to him. "Are you alright?"

Kisuke picked up his hat knocking the dust from it. He looked around making sure no one was injured too seriously before he took his leave. Walking past Tsukiro he patting his shoulder firmly.
"Hang in there. We will find an end to this soon." He walked toward the exit catching up with Kyoraku quickly.

Ryo quickly bounced from the floor, running over to catch the ailing Ukitake as he buckled. "Captain, please sit. Rest." Ryo guided Ukitake to an empty seat. "Captain Kotetsu, please hurry."

Tsukiro stood there, staring at the floor. "I couldn't do a thing for her," he said barely above a whisper. "I couldn't get through to her. I'm just as useless now as back then. Nothing I did since then has made any difference. I still can't protect her."

Isane quickly made her way to Ryo and Juushiro's side. Concern washing over her face. "You pushed yourself too hard, Captain. You should have let one of the others do this." She sighed and went to work on Juushiro checking him over and doing the best she could for where they were at.

Sajin shook his head as he sat beside the captain. "Your luck, today, was as good as any of ours. She may be lost to us, now." Sajin looked across the room at the damage done. "This is a rather unfortunate setback. But, like anything else, we will overcome this. And, if we can not, it simply means we were not meant to."

Juushiro shook his head at the healer. "There wasn't time, and I'm fine." He tried to stumble to his feet, but both Ryo and Isane pushed him back down. He closed his eyes. "I appreciate your concern, captains, but my health isn't the most important thing at the moment." He needed to get to their commander, his best friend. This had been one blow too many for the man.

Ryo pushed Ukitake back down with all of her weight. "Move again, and I will have Sajin sit on you." She looked across the room and pointed to Sajin. "Do I need to have him come over here?"

Tsukiro sighed. "That doesn't make me feel any better." He was silent for a long moment, then he shook his head. "No, I will bring her back. Kita is in there and I know it. I will bring her home. Even if I die trying. She may not be the same Kita I knew before once she's back, but that won't make me love her any less. She's still Kita. And I still love her."
He sat down then leaned back, laying down on the floor, cold after Hitsugaya's blast of ice. He didn't care.
He closed his eyes, sighing once more, "I just want this meeting to be over with so I can go home and sleep."

Sajin stood from his seat on the floor, grabbing and dragging Ashimitsu from the floor as he did. Ashimitsu's feet dangled as Sajin brought him to eye level. "Shut.Up. I've only known you for a short time, and I've already grown bored of your self pity! You could do no more than the rest of us. Yet you sit here complaining as if you had the option of changing what has happened. You are so fixated on this woman, that you fail to see the bigger picture - We failed. We all failed! Sousuke Aizen was not only able to interrupt this meeting. But, he was able to take something from Central 46 and leave with it. Forget this one drop of water in this ocean of problems, Tsukiro Ashimitsu. You are a Captain now. And, if this is how you act when you suffer defeat..." He dropped Ashimitsu. "Then, I regret having anything to do with your promotion."
Sajin walked away in a fury, his foot steps heavy and marking the wood with each stride. He walked over to where Ukitake was sitting, sat beside him and draped an arm his lap forcing him to sit still.

Tsukiro straightened his clothes, letting out a slight sigh, shaking his head. Komamura was right. He couldn't afford to brood anymore. But he did recognize that they had failed, just as much as the others were aware of it.
Unsure of what to do, he just stood in place, his arms crossed into his sleeves, remaining silent.
Damn you Sosuke Aizen. One day you will pay.

Juushiro relented as Sajin came over and added his weight to Ryo's to keep him down. He closed his eyes again, conserving his strength. He hoped Kisuke could help his friend until Isane gave him leave to move again. Don't give up, Shunsui. You're the strongest between the two of us and Soul Society needs you.
He looked over Sajin who still seemed angry at Tsukiro. "It's understandable, Komamura," he murmured. "He is young and Aizen continues to display his control over Kita. I don't think that means he has forgotten his duties. It just happens to be the largest wound. Ashimitsu will calm down."

The noble captain straightened after infusing some healing power to his limbs. They still felt heavy from the various bindings that had been enacted. Looking around, his eyes met Soi Fong's. "Those of us who are not needed here should check with the divisions and control any chaos that Sousuke's arrival caused." Soi Fong nodded and strode out the door. Byakuya walked over to Ashimitsu. "The Stealth Force would useful to check for any chaos that may have risen in Rukongai," he murmured. He passed Captain Hitsugaya, nodded, and then shunpo'ed away.

Sajin shook his head as he looked at the boy standing at the other end of the room. "He fails to see the bigger picture, Captain Ukitake." He removed his arm from his fellow captain's lap. "His inability to think outside of himself, is dangerous. I do not like it." He growled, his anger boiling inside him, until both Ukitake and Hirabayashi placed a hand on him.
"Calm yourself, please, Komamura." said Ukitake as he withdrew his hand. "Now is not the time to be angry with your allies."

"Give Ashimitsu time," Juushiro continued, after some of the anger in his fellow captain had settled. "This will be a test for him, but if he passed the captain's testing, he is ready to face this trial head on. Your lecture helped, but he has to handle this particular detail more on his own than others. Besides," he looked to his lap, "being bound and unable to fight back would set off milder tempers than his."
