When Sode no Shirayuki was offered a chance to go to the world of the living with her lady Rukia, she accepted it immediately. The excitement she was feeling within was barely contained, but she did her best to remain cool. The last time she had gone had been for but a brief moment and it was under completely different circumstances. 

Now she was going alongside lady Rukia for no other reason but to check in with Ichigo Kurosaki. Those two tended to correspond with each other on a regular basis. That aspect was not at all appealing to the ice zanpakuto, but seeing the buildings and the other odd things of the world was of great interest to her. It just never ceased to amaze her to see so many new things and experience them for herself. 

As she was walking alongside her master, her eyes flickered from one side to the other, taking in everything around her. If she were to describe it, she would say it was so busy. Not at all like the Soul Society. 

Then something odd caught her eye. She stopped walking; staring off to her side and down an alley. Looking back over to Rukia, she saw that her master was busy tapping something in on her phone. 

I will only be a minute. She thought, drifting away from her master and down the alley. She figured once she saw that there was nothing on the other side, she would return to Rukia and they would continue on their way. No such luck. 

Sode no Shirayuki got to the end of the alley which opened to another street and then she looked to her left. Her eyes widened in surprise. 

“Hebi?” She looked around expecting to see lieutenant Abarai and Saru, the other half of Zabimaru, but they were no where in sight. “Just what are you doing here?”

"I have a snake for sale. Do I have any takers?"- submitted by baboonchains

"Bugar?" Saru had an evil smirk on her face as she stared at Hebi's writing. "This is exactly why you are going to school here. You can't even spell correctly you little twerp." 

It had only been a few hours since arrival to the living world called Bunkyo and Saru was already feeling the pressure to manage the accommodations for both her and Hebi. Renji wasn't much help as he could only say that he had stayed with Kisuke Urahara. Saru knew that wouldn't work for her and Hebi so she was on her own. The only thing she was willing to ask Kisuke for was the gigai's which were readily available upon her arrival.

Once they were in the bodies that made them visible to humans, Saru had within her hand a dog leash that was attached to Snake and it began to extend as he wondered further away. Pressing a button on the leash that stopped the chord from going any further and halting him in his tracks. "Come on Snake." There next task was to find a place to reside as sleeping in a tree would get mighty uncomfortable after awhile. 

"Help me search for a house. We don't have all day." The tone in her voice was both serious and bored. It was such a pain in the ass that she had to do this. That being said, their house hunting didn't take too long once they started looking. Saru's keen eyes found a house up for sale in the middle of the city which would be beneficial to them. "What do you think?" Her head turned down to look at her small partner. Even if he was just a kid, his opinion was still important enough to ask for.
