Kakashi's POV
Naruto's all in knots over Kira. It's like everyone's on edge.
Sasuke's on edge too, always checking on her. Sakura's a mess, tears and all, going on about how Kira had her back in the brawl.
Me? I'm feeling guilty. She patched me up when she needed it most. I'm the sensei who missed her pain.
I let out a sigh as we chatted over our meal, nothing too heavy, just keeping it light.
We headed to the room. "Pick your spots and hit the hay," I mentioned, stepping into one of the rooms; only two were available.
Before long, Sasuke strolled into my room, with Naruto in tow. Seems like they went for a girls-only and boys-only setup.
As everyone settled in for the night, exhaustion caught up with me too, so I hit the hay in a flash.

Kira's POV
"Papa!" I called out, rushing to embrace him. "My dear child, you've grown so much," my dad remarked, observing my 18-year-old self in the past body.
As he returned the hug, tears welled up. "Why did you take your own life, huh?" he inquired, stepping back.
"It's... it's complicated," I stammered. "I know everything, I witnessed it all," he stated, causing me to retreat.
"Dad... I was alone, betrayed by those I trusted! Your sister nearly beat me to death when I lived with her! I had no one! But now, I'm genuinely happy," I explained, tears streaming down my face.
"I'm let down by you, Kira. Allowing them to mistreat you and disrespecting my sibling," he expressed in anger.
"Dad! What do you mean?! You told me to stand up for myself and defend myself!" I protested.
"You're just like your mother," he uttered before vanishing.
My dad, once gentle and loving, now gone...

I jolted awake, struggling for breath, nightmare...
Glancing over, I spotted Sakura asleep a few steps away; just us in the room.
Night still lingered, I rose, wincing from the pain – oh, my wound.
The ache persisted, though my fever seemed to slightly ease, an improvement.
Stepping outside, I settled on the ground, relishing the quiet night.
Not long after, soft footsteps approached. I turned to see Naruto hurrying over, worry etched on his face.
"Narut-" I started, but a hug cut me off, a delicate embrace, careful not to cause harm.
