3rd Person PoV

Jiro watched as the vines parted to show a very dying man.

"Ao!" a mist nin jumped down beside the eye patched man.

"Alright," Jiro stood up and jumped over to the shell a few meters away. He knocked on the shell and the vines and leaves crumbled away and there she was.

Y/n, she was lying there but it didn't look like she was breathing. He quickly laid his head on her chest, listening for any sign of her heart still beating.

"She has no heartbeat!" he shouted, jolting up, Shizune quickly ran over to her and did the same as Jiro before starting the CPR process.

"Come on, y/n! Lord Gaara is waiting for you," Jiro muttered as he watched Shizune with hawk like eyes.

Shizune kept trying. She was determined to get the young girls heart working again.

When all hope was almost lost, y/n started breathing again.

"Alright, get Lady y/n and Ao to the camp," Shizune ordered as people rolled out stretchers and gently placed the two injured ninja onto the stretchers. A ninja from the leaf started sealing away the dead ninja inside scrolls as the injured nin were taken away.

Lady Tsunade helped tend to y/n's and Ao's wounds when they reached the medical camp.

After that the war ended the day after, Naruto became a hero and he, Sasuke and Sakura preformed the new generation of the three way deadlock.

"Where is she?" Temari came flying into the camp with her siblings close behind her.

"You're looking for y/n?" Jiro asked as he stepped out of a tent, the siblings all nodded, "follow me."

Jiro turned and started walking before stopping as a thought came to mind.

"Actually..." he trailed off, "I should tell you first."

The siblings looked at him curiously.

"Y/n... Her heart wasn't beating when we reached her, Shizune and Lady Tsunade saved her, though. Right now she's weak and..." he trailed off again, "... She seems to be... No she'll tell you herself."

"Anyway, follow me. I'll take you to her now, maybe you'll be able to calm her down, Lord Gaara, Lady Temari and Lord Kankuro," Jiro told them, turning and walking through the camp.

The siblings entered the tent to see y/n stretching.

"I can't believe I am still alive after all that," she muttered to herself, "Sakura packs one hell of a freaking punch. She was not happy. I don't think she could've made it any more obvious that it was. First Tsunade, then Shizune, then Jiro, then Sakura, who else is going to nag me. Not like I could control where that blast was going."

Y/n took a deep calming breath in and then let out a low breath and the three watched her bewildered.

"I wonder why they wouldn't tell me if there were any other survivors..." she whispered, "did I not... Help any of them...? What a waste of energy and chakra."

"Y/n!" Kankuro called, the h/c haired girl looked over to the entrance to see the sand siblings. The worried look on her face changed to a grin.

"Gaara, Temari, Kankuro," she greeted them before perching on the bed behind her, "Please don't tell Sakura I was up, she'll kill me."

"Oh really?" Temari asked, a brow raised in curiosity, "so... What exactly happened?"

"We saw the Ten Tails shoot the blast at you guys and the explosion, but what happened?" Kankuro asked.

Your PoV

I sighed and shook my head.

"We noticed that it was heading in our direction and sat together. I was told to count from ten and when I reached zero, actually, before I managed to say 'zero' we were hit. The blast threw everyone in all different directions," I told them, "when I was knocked out of the way I managed to get vines and roots to catch everyone in the room. But I haven't seen anyone but myself, obviously, and every time I ask about it, I'm just brushed off like some child. Annoying, I know."

I crossed my legs and sighed.

"I'm not a kid that they can just brush off. Can't they just be honest?" I scoffed, rolling my eyes. Gaara grabbed my hands and held onto them.

"I'm sure everyone is alright," Temari told me, she smiled at me sweetly before pulling me out of Gaara's hold and into a tight embrace. I winced and pulled back.

"Still hurting, I didn't come out completely unscathed," I told her, lifting my left side of my shirt just at my waist to show the bottom of the bandage was was wrapped around my whole torso, "they said it'll scar but it's not going to affect... stuff for the... future. Not that I want to be acknowledging anything those crusty ass elders were bumbling about before the war."

I sighed and looked away.

"Right... Kankuro nodded before looking at the tent entrance and back to me, "they said we needed to calm you down? About what?"

It was almost immediate.

I couldn't stop my tears from flowing and just watched they helplessly panicked.

"Why're you crying?" Temari asked as Gaara sat next to me, wrapping an arm around my shoulders, and pulling me into his side.

"My memories," I glanced across them, "I can't remember anything. Idon't know who I am anymore."
