«15» RESCUING NARUTO!

@Masashi Kishimoto

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Boruto woke up from his sleep. He was laying down on a hospital bed. "Dad?..."

"Boruto, you're awake!" Sarada exclaimed as Mitsuki turned to his direction.

The Uzumaki stayed silent, he turned to his side seeing a slumbering Yamanaka.

"She's just sleeping." Sarada mentioned. Boruto wasn't convinced enough as he saw scratched and bruises on Inomi's face.

Even Sarada noticed the scars on their Former Sensei's cheeks. "She was there to protect us from the Explosion, but eventually she almost failed and got hit by it..."

"Everyone's been transported here, Nanadaime has protected us all..." Mitsuki stated. The Uzumaki immediately got out of his bed when he heard his sister's voice.

"Himawari?!" He ran to the other side. There, he saw Himawari, Sakura, and Hinata who was lying down slightly unconscious.

"Hang in there Hinata!"

"It's me, Mama! Can you tell?"

The Uzumaki approached them in worry. Sakura turned to him with a determined look. "Don't worry Boruto, she'll be okay.."

"What happened to you mom?!" Boruto asked desperately. The Haruno-Uchiha kept her lips sealed before speaking up.

"She faced off against them.."

"What?!"

"... To try to stop them from taking Naruto.." Sakura frowned as she ended her explanation. Boruto looked horrified, trying to remember the events that happened.

"DAD!"

"Stupid Otsutsukis..." Inomi woke up, followed by a headache. She grunted in pain as Sarada went to her aid. "Inomi! You're already awake!"

She slowly stood up from her seat and turned to an empty bed. "He left... Didn't he?"

"He left just then.. he's probably upset." Mitsuki stated, Sarada nodded in agreement. Inomi sighed and started to walk towards the exit.

"You're still bruised Inomi, are you sure you'll go after him?" The Uchiha asked thoughtfully. Inomi nodded with a serious face.

"I don't want a student of mine to be a burden..." She said but Sarada protested.

"Dad would be mad at you for hurting yourself more, didn't he tell you to stay back?" She asked her with teary eyes. The Yamanaka wasn't going to fall for her words.

"I'm doing what I need to do Sarada, just let me do what I want to do." The Half-and-half girl pulled her arm away from Sarada's hand.

The door closed shut as Inomi venture to find the Uzumaki.

"When I was child Inomi, you were sort of like me." Naruto stated as he grinned. The young Yamanaka grew a horn from her forehead and tilted her head. "Are you for real Naruto-San?"

"Mhm, I was an outcast.. everyone hated me because I was some sort of monster but the good thing is I didn't know about Kurama yet!" He awkwardly grin while the Yamanaka just blinked at him. "Well you aren't an outcast at all but everyone hated how Toneri tried to destroyed our village right?"

"I don't think that's a good thing Naruto-San..?" She stated slowly with a frown on her face. He deadpanned at her response.
