Maybe He Deserves A Chance

Almost There 🏥

I quickly turn around. My eyes moved downwards until I saw Shadow's unconscious body.

"Oh my god-"

I rush over to Shadow asking what hurts and if he was okay. He faced upwards, his mask cracked from the fall. The crack covered the mask's left eye. Scanning Shadow's body, I notice he had his hand covering where I pulled his out the arrow.

I put my hand on top of his.

"We have to get you to the hospital and fast."

He nodded and crawled onto my back. I start running for the village.

We make it through the gate. Shadow begins heavily breathing and moaning in pain. People from different shops ask if they could help but I shut them out. I have to focus.

     "Almost there, just hold on!"

I break out into a sprint when I see the hospital sign. We get make it to the hospital lobby. I start rushing for a nurse.

     "Naruto what happened?!"

I look over and see Sakura running my direction. I want to talk but I can't stop panting. My anxiety then kicks in and I can't manage words. Sakura sees the man on my back and nods.

       "Get a stretcher and four nurses! Bring him to room 7! NOW!

Sakura stares me down and tells me to go to the front desk. I nod as Shadow is removed from my back. I guess he passed out on the way here.

I stand at the front desk. An old lady slowly tilts her head up and sighs.

     "Name?"

     "Naruto Uzumaki", I mumbled.

     "Not you, the injured one." The woman rolls her eyes at me.

     " Right..um.. Shadow."

     "Last name?"

     "I..uh.. I don't know ma'am".

     "Whatever just go take a seat." The woman rolled her eyes once again and I walked to an empty chair in the lobby.
