Ino pov

Ino was in her family training ground sweating from the intense training she was putting herself in.

Her body was screaming at her to stop and take a break but yet still she couldn't stop, there was war coming in five weeks and she needs to be prepared as she failed to notice three people behind until she heard a voice.

Troublesome, your body will break if you continue training" A voice said lazily as Ino turned around and saw Satsuki, Shikamaru and Choji.

What are you guys doing here" Ino asked as she was surprised to see her team and Satsuki was here when they haven't even spoken to her for four years.

We are here to convince you too take a break" Satsuki said

Yeah what you're doing right now will only result in your death if you continue to push your body to it's limits" Choji said.

But the war is coming and I cannot afford to be burden to everyone" Ino said as she covered her mouth once she realized her mistake.

Who considers you a burden" Shikamaru asked with his eyebrow raised to prove his point.

Like you care, these past four years have been proof of that" Ino huffed as she looked to the side.

And can you really blame us for giving you the cold shoulders" Choji said.

I mean you used to claim your undying love for me when in reality you wanted nothing but the wealth of the uchiha clan" Satsuki said as everyone saw Ino crying.

Look I'm sorry, I admit I was only using your for your family wealth so much so that I had convinced myself that I loved you and in the process of my fan girl faze I lost all my friends" Ino cried as four years of isolation from her friends has finally taken a toll on her.

Look Ino even though our relationship is not on the best of terms, you have proven to us that you got rid of your fangirl mentality and become a better person" Satsuki said.

Yes, you have grown so much in these past few years has shown me that you are willing to leave your past self behind and become a better person" Choji said.

Troublesome" Shikamaru said as he hugged Ino greatly shocking the blonde girl as Satsuki and Choji joined the hug.

Guys" Ino cried as she hugged them back as she was happy that her friends forgave her.
