[Hokage] Don't let go

[My name is Moonlight Hayate, and I am your guide Jonin. 】

[My name is Yamamoto Sasuke, I hope to know more about you. 】

[My name is Miyama Ai, I will work hard. 】

Konoha, showers.

Nara Tsuki was unconscious on the white hospital bed.

Shallow breathing, regular drips, and wrapped bandages, these are common things since becoming a ninja.

She was addicted to her dream, because there, the Gale Class was still there.

They're having a picnic, they're joking, they're bickering.

All is well and no one has left.

But ah... People always have to wake up and face reality.

The thick and slender eyelashes moved slightly, and the lost eyes slowly opened.

Into the eyes, a pale.

With the unpleasant smell of disinfectant lingering on the tip of his nose, Nara Tsuki knew that this was a hospital.

Her empty mind short-circuited, and she couldn't remember why she was here.

What about the blast class?

When she thought of her companion, her heart throbbed inexplicably, and her impatience made her stand up.

"You're awake!" Nara Shikamaru had just put the flowers sent by Ino Yamanaka into the vase when Nara Tsuki's voice came from his ear.

"Shikamaru! Where are they?" When Narazuki saw him, his eyes lit up, and he anxiously asked where his companion was.

Nara Shikamaru paused, his lips were tightly pursed, and his eyes were dim.

Nara Tsuki's eyelashes trembled slightly, and she lowered her head slowly.

That's right, Teacher Haifeng died, Xiao Ai was also killed by Kun, and Ah Shi also...

They are all dead.

Memories break through the window paper like cold wind, pouring into the broken body and mind.

"They're all dead..."

Nara Tsuki's voice was surprisingly calm, as if none of this mattered.

But Nara Shikamaru knew that her heart was really broken.

"Do not."

With just one word, Nara Yue suddenly raised his head, and hope rose again in his eyes.

Nara Shikamaru was thinking about the words of the medical ninja, his eyes were slightly sideways, and he did not look at Nara Yue.

"Ah Shi and Xiao Ai are not dead. At the critical moment of the explosion, Class [-] arrived."

Class [-] is here?Nara Tsuki felt relieved.

"and then?"

"Then." Nara Shikamaru paused: "Ah Shi, Xiao Ai is still being treated, but...not out of danger yet."

That said, they might still die!

Nara Shikamaru didn't want to cheat needlessly, or say nice things.

Authentic, best for Narazuki right now.

Lifting the quilt, pulling out the needle, a few drops of blood fell on the quilt.

Nara Yue rushed out of the door barefoot, followed by Nara Shikamaru.

In the emergency room, the light on the door frame was on.

Nara Tsuki waited stubbornly, staring at the door without blinking.

Nara Shikamaru brought the slippers, knelt down and put them on for her.

"Xiaoyue..."

Haruno Sakura and Uzumaki Naruto who came to visit called her, and Nara Shikamaru made a silent gesture at them.

Day and night, waiting in front of the door.

Nara Shikamaru sat with her on the bench, turned sideways and gently said to Uzumaki Naruto and Haruno Sakura: "Go back."

The two shook their heads. What happened to the Gale Team was a big blow to them.

Uzumaki Naruto has been thinking, if he can arrive earlier, a little earlier...

At least, the situation will be better.

When he came back, he heard that Yueguang Gale was dead. At that moment, he suddenly understood the meaning of life and death.

Now, looking at my dear friend who was full of vigor in the past, he is like a lifeless puppet, without any movement or sound.

Whirlpool Naruto's heart throbbed with pain.

The lights went out and the door of the rescue room opened.

"It's not life-threatening anymore," said the medical ninja.

Nara Yue's body flickered and almost fell to the ground, Nara Shikamaru hurriedly supported her.

Great...they're alive.

"The child Yamamoto pierced something in his throat, and his voice was ruined. Mei Shanai's condition is very serious. Not only is she completely deaf. Moreover, she can no longer continue her ninja career."

Just feeling rejoicing in my heart, the words that followed were like cold water, and Nara Yue was completely cold from head to toe.

"How could this be? Think again, think again!"

Uzumaki Naruto held onto the medical ninja tightly, Lan Zhan's eyes filled with tears.

Haruno Sakura also begged at the side, they felt that there must be hope.

"Little Moon."

Mei Shanai's mother came out of the operating room with a tired face.

"Aunt Jiujiu."

Nara Yue lowered her head, not daring to look directly at her.

【Don't worry, Aunt Jiujiu.If Xiao Ai, I will protect it. 】

She would say this to Mei Shan for a long time every time she went on a mission.

But this time, it fell through.

In the final analysis, it was all because of herself that Meishan Ai was seriously injured like this.

The surge of self-blame is like boiling water, pouring on the weakest part of the heart without hesitation.

Meishan glanced at the others for a long time: "I want to have a private chat with Xiaoyue, is that okay?"

Nara Shikamaru nodded and Haruno Sakura pulled Naruto Uzumaki who didn't know Miyama Kujiu away.

"Naruto, don't be like this, that is Xiao Ai's mother."

"..." Naruto Uzumaki stopped his voice, regretting his recklessness just now.

In front of the rescue room, only Nara Yue and Miyama Jiujiu were left.

"It's already good, Satsuki. For the ninja, it's already very lucky."

"Is that so... Aunt Jiujiu, I'm sorry."

"You are all children. It's heartbreaking to be a mother, but as a ninja, I'm already very fortunate that my little love is still alive. So, Xiaoyue, you have to cheer up."

"......Yes."

Meishan patted Nara Yuet's shoulder for a long time and left, she didn't have the energy to say anything more.

Nara Tsuki was still standing outside the door, watching Yamamoto San and Miyama Ai being pushed out, watching them being placed in the intensive care unit.

Through the glass, I can clearly see that the companion's body is full of tubes, and the white mist on the ventilator, vaguely present, conveys the message of life.

Nara Yue walked back to the ward, halfway, Hatake Kakashi came to meet him.

However, she didn't see him, and passed by his side without a moment's pause.

Hatake Kakashi turned around, but did not stop Nara Tsuki.

Her back was lonely, and her normally high head was lowered a lot.

People will always experience some pain in their life, especially ninjas who live on the blade.

After all, ninjas, whether they want to admit it or not, are essentially tools.
