"Arigatou Shisui," Yuna whispered as she observed Shisui fade into the rays. She held the ring Shisui gave her as she started trekking towards the light; familiar voices seemed to reach her as she sprinted toward the bright yellow beam.

"Yuna!!"

When Yuna opened her eyes, she first noticed Obito crying; his lips quivered as he gazed happily at the kunoichi before him. Then, Yuna's heart plunged into her gut; she had died. So how was she brought back?

Yuna lifted her hand to place it on Obito's cheek, and his eye opened wide in wonder as he peeked down to see a slight smile fanned across her lips as she gazed at him. He gasped in the air before throwing himself on top of Yuna in a hug. The shock of his impact caused Yuna to wheeze before she wrapped her arms around his midsection.

"I thought I lost you too, Yuna-san," he whimpered, and Yuna bit back a chuckle as she felt contentment seeping through her. Obito was warm.

"Obito-kun, I was dead." She giggled into his chest, "I'm not sure what happened. I'm sorry I scared you." Obito felt his heart speed up, and his cheeks blushed. He wasn't sure what Naruto did, but he was happy Naruto saved her.

"Yuna-Senpai!!!" Sakura yelled over the masses as she rushed forward to greet the purple-haired woman; Yuna gave a broad smile.

"Sakura-chan! I'm so happy to see you!! Ah, what can I do for you?" Yuna excitedly chattered to her mother's pupil. A very sheepish Obito beside Yuna, his nervous behavior due to the many crimes he had committed.

Itachi stood quietly behind the two, afraid that at any moment, the three would be cast out of the village or, worse yet, killed for what he did to the Uchiha clan. In truth, Itachi was very nervous; he had also died during Pain's attack on Konoha but from a different incident. He had fought Sasuke, and Sasuke had won. While Itachi was proud of his little brother, he was also incredibly nervous about how well-received it would be that he survived. Sasuke did not know the truth behind the massacre yet, and Yuna nor Obito knew anything about Sasuke's whereabouts post-attack.

Where are you, Sasuke?

Itachi felt more at peace upon awakening, maybe because he finally said goodbye to his parents and clan correctly. Perhaps since he no longer harbored a deadly illness, Itachi's body had fully healed. But his soul still held grief, his guilt may have lessened, but his suffering did not. Itachi had wanted to stay dead, and while he was content to stand by Yuna's side and maybe, finally, tell Sasuke the truth, he also felt apprehensive about the future. Could he stay in the Leaf Village? If that happened, he would have to tell Sasuke about the Uchiha massacre.

He wondered if Yuna had gotten the closure she needed as well. She seemed brighter than the sun today. Since she had awoken, Yuna had done nothing but tend to him and Obito until she was sure they were ready to take on the scrutiny that lay before them.

"Yuna-senpai, I uh," Sakura paused as she saw the two figures behind her senpai. Fear swam through her entire being as she saw Itachi Uchiha. How was he alive? Sasuke said he had killed his brother? And who was the other man?

Yuna noticed the pinkette's apprehension, "Sakura-chan, they're with me. I'd like to help tend to the wounded and see my mother if possible. I promise we are here to help." Yuna gently smiled, making the teen feel more at ease until she remembered what she needed to tell Yuna.
