Kakashi watched you closely, you had not been completely honest when you told everyone that you were fine. You were, but not completely, there were a few moments when you would just stare off into the distance, as if your mind was somewhere else.

But your gaze, your expression changed as soon as the cries if pain reached your ears. Despite the desperation to help them, you stayed with them until you finally arrived. There were many tents with injured people inside them, medic no has tending to them and, others just seating around looking depressed. For good reasons, they were missing limbs.

You were about to approach one of them, it was a very young girl about 16-17, she didn't even seem to notice you as you began to approach her. But a hand clasped around your elbow, stopping you from getting closer. "[Name]..."

Grabbing his hand, you gave it a small squish and a smile before you removed his hand. "It won't harm me, don't worry."

The young woman finally reacted when your hand was placed on her shoulders. She opened her mouth to talk, obviously recognizing who you were. She settled by beginning to cry, as you started to return her lost leg and foot. "Th-thank you!" She sprung to her feet, a smile reaching her lips but her crying continued.

They were Shinobi, Kunoichi but losing a part of your body was not easy to accept. Specially not when you were a ninja, and you loved being one. Losing a leg or arm could definitely drag you down. However before you could continue, there were others almost dying, and they were your main priority for the moment.

As you walked, you captured the attention of those who were able to keep their eyes away from their patients. While you approached a tent which has medic ninja screaming at one another, giving each other orders as they tried to save someone. From the small cracks that their bodies allowed to see the person, there was a bloody person on a medical bed. Or what it appears to be, so, you pushed your way to them.

From the corner of your eyes, you captured pink hair, but even her, you pushed her aside as you helped save the man. Withing minutes, withing minutes you were able to save him, and then had him seating up. His eyes widened as he checked his body, only to find no wounds. Instead, he watched as your own clothing was to tainted with blood, but that didn't stop you from moving on to anyone else who needed your help.

That was how it went for the rest of the day, and you had to stop because your body would not allow you to continue. So, you asked a medic ninja where you could go and take some rest. The woman was kind enough to lead you to it, and walked off in a hurry as a fellow medic ninja called out to her.

Cots, these were not medical beds but cots and very uncomfortable. But with how exhausted you were, as you sat on it, it was the least of your worried. You rubbed your face, feeling the blood covering your face and most of your body. It was something you noticed when you saved the first ones, normally when you did the technique, there was no blood left on your body. Then as you continued, the bleeding stopped.

Someone watered the tent, but you were so exhausted that you didn't have the energy to look up. There was a pressure next to you, letting you know that whomever it was, they took a seat. "[Name]," it was Sakura, and from how she sounded she wasn't sure what to say.

Looking from the corners of your eyes, "what is it Sakura?"

The woman looked tired, from all the stress and work no doubt. "I...-"

"[Name]?" Kiba, it was definitely Kiba who called out to you from the entrance of the tent. But before you had the time to reply, he rushed forward and had you pressed against his body. Small droplets of water began to drop and damp your head. "[Name]," he repeated your name as there was a small tremble on his voice. His arms tightened around your body, nuzzling his face on the crook of your neck.
