After a while I was starting to feel ill.. I felt slower and less aware than I normally did and Hashirama had pointed out I looked slightly paler than normal. He all but ordered me to take a day from battle and see one of our fellow medics to make sure I was okay to fight. So instead of leaving with everyone else I wandered towards the small hospital we had and was greeted with the familiar smile of the woman who had helped me learn Medical Ninjutsu

"Naria, it's been awhile" she said cheerfully and I smiled as she wrapped her slightly frail arms around me for a hug. I hugged her back and crinkled my nose slightly at the smell of ointment radiating from her uniform

"Hey Akemi" I said as she let go

"Are you finally giving up fighting on the battlefield to heal with us?" She asked excitedly and I couldn't help but chuckle

"No way, I couldn't l-leave Hashirama and Tobirama out t-there by themselves" I said and she broke into a fit of laughter

"Then what brings you here deary" She asked and I frowned slightly

"I feel like I-I have been poisoned to be completely honest... but I-I don't recall when I would have been poisoned" I said and she frowned as she beckoned me to a mat a little to the side of the small desk

"What are your symptoms?" she asked as I laid down on the mat

"I get dizzy really easily and I g-get tired more often when fighting..." I said and she nodded as she checked various things on my body with her medical ninjutsu. She was silent for a bit and I couldn't help the frown that spread across my face at the focused and serious look she wore

"A-am I o-okay?" I asked worriedly as her eyebrows furrowed

"Well you may want to reconsider becoming strictly a medical ninja sweetie" She said as she took her hands off me and looked me in the eyes

"Your pregnant" She said and I felt my throat constrict as the words filled my ears and rattled around through my head.

"Naria? Hey Naria" Akemi muttered but I couldn't respond, my mouth was dry and for the first time in a long time I felt actual fear course through my veins... I was bringing a child into a war.. I felt a sharp pain in the side of my head and made a whining sound as Akemi pulled her hand away

"What was that for?" I whined, rubbing away the pain that her firm hand had left

"I needed your attention" She said simply and I frowned

"W-what am I going to do.." I muttered, letting my head rest back on the mat as I looked up at the wooden ceiling

"Well I recommend you first tell whoever the father is.. Then you talk to Butsuma about taking time off as a shinobi and come help us" She said and I let out a long, slightly shaky sigh

"Who is the father anyways?" She asked curiously and I frowned

"Kouta" I muttered and she let out a dry laugh
