[quote=Garrison] Shusuke must have been out of it cause it took him forever to reply to Giovanni's pressing questions, if he was ok. "I'm fine, just tired." he replied, now realizing from Gio's facial expression that that wasn't his concern, the bleeding was. Shusuke showed Giovanni where his lip was cut on the inside, hence all the bleeding. "Must have happened during my roll. Didn't mean to be all dramatic or anything." he said with a smile, his teeth were white again hinting that the bleeding stopped. They returned to the main gate of the Sereitei after a while. [/quote] After finally being convinced that Shusuke wasn't going to drop dead anytime soon Giovanni left him alone about his injuries. once they arrived to the seireitei they went to the squad one barracks to report to the head captain. While the mission had seemed simple enough when they were told about it. It wasnt so 'simple' once they were there and surrounded. but Giovanni didnt question the mission itself, instead he questioned the location. hollow pile ups that for out probably werent uncommon for lower level hollows. easy food and low defense. there was no station out there for quicker response. there might not be stations anywere now that he thought about it. he knocked on the door. "head captain, we've come to report"
