With the Captains suffering casualties and heavy injuries on their side, all hope seemed to be lost... until Shinji Hirako appeared, along with the rest of the former Shinigami. Though the aid of the Vizards certainly helped to draw the battle in their favor, it seemed Aizen's power alone proved too much for them.
Sayuri continued to bop along stupidly to the flashy screen hitting her marks as they came to the J-pop techno song that was playing for them. By the looks of it one would never guess she was near century year old highly trained assassin. From time to time she would side glance to steal a look or two of Soifon beside her.
Though, as the game wound down her eyes nearly popped out of her head seeing that Soifon has scored just as high as her. She smiled broadly at this as she remarked, "You did a lot better than me on my first try."
Sprightly she hopped off of the machine and looked to Soifon curiosly, "What should we conqueror next?"

Sayuri had successfully defended her #1 ranking in the game. Soifon smiled at Sayuri,"I have had more training in helpful fields, but you did most excellent."
Soifon looked towards a series of large enclosed games with cars on the exterior,"I wonder what those are?" she walked towards them.
Being a Shinigami, she never really learned to drive. She never even seen the inside of a car, really.
She slowly entered one of the booths of the racing game that had a spot for Sayuri next to it, then she read the brief instructions. "Have you played this one before?" Soifon asked Sayuri as she put in a coin.
Sayuri smiled with a furrowed brow grateful and touched by Soifon's compliment, even if it was over just a silly game, albeit she would react the same way in response to any compliment Soifon would give her on anything. When Soifon pointed to the racing games asking if she had ever played them, she slowly shook her head, "Um... no... I never really thought about them before."
Nevertheless she followed Soifon over to them, and slipped into the booth beside Soifon, and smiled with a flippant shrug, "There's a first time for everything.", placing both hands on the wheel in front of her she side glanced to Soifon, "Ready when you are."
Sayuri just sat there with a furrowed brow staring at the screen reading in bold "GAME OVER", apparently she never even placed having burned all three of her car's lives having crashed and burned one to many times. After a moment when it at last dawned on her just much she sucked at the game, she grimaced a bit a little embarrassed.
Side glancing at Soifon she remarked, "Err ... Not exactly worth mentioning...", and tittered a little before moving on to say, "Um... Perhaps we should find games that play to our strengths, so we can make certain we achieve our prizes."
Crawling out of the booth, Sayuri glanced about the area, a little overwhelmed - while she did visit the place more than once in the past, it was generally only for the DDR game and the claw games to win beanie babies, "So many...", she mumbled quietly.

Soifon approached the claw game with her spool of tickets, and she looked over the contents, "Hm..."
She the studied the crane itself, "Odds aren't good, but..."
She inserted a coin, and maneuvered the claw towards a prize... a little more... down... Dropped!
She grunted, then popped in another coin, and tried again using her powers of observation...
The claw dropped, and successfully retrieved a beanie baby!!
Soifon bent down, and retrieved it from the cubby hole, then... she presented it to Sayuri! A cute lil' white tiger beanie baby. "Here you are," she said a bit bluntly, but she meant it as a gift. She smiled a bit to help reinforce the fact that it was more fun than a chore.
Sayuri tilted her head a little perplexed seeing Soifon wander over to one of the claw games, manipulating the crane trying to get one of the beanie babies. Idly Sayuri wandered over next to her watching her try to get one. The first time ended in failure, but the second Soifon managed to manipulate the crane to clamp onto a little white tiger.
When Soifon presented Sayuri with little white tiger beanie baby, Sayuri pretty much melted where she stood, gnawing at her lower lip as she accepted the gift her face could not have been any redder, "Th-Thank you, Soi-sama...", she replied with overwhelmed heartfelt gratitude. It was simple gift - only cost a few coins, it was nothing more than a simple collectors bauble even; but for Sayuri it was much more than that - it was a gift from her idol, someone she truly looks up to and secretly holds dear.
By the outings end, Sayuri made certain to help Soifon gain a couple more black cat memorabilia from the arcade before their heading back to Seireitei. On Sayuri's desk in her quarters in a special little area on the surface of the desk, she kept the little white tiger beanie baby where she could always look at it and pine.
