N.O.W.: My name? Jaykoya!
'Must...keep...going...'
Outside of the beautiful village of Konoho, everything seemed peaceful.
The Birds were chirping, a few squirrels ran around tree trunks, and
butterflies fluttered about. A seemingly typical day.
'Come on...hang in there body...' a cough could be heard with a slight gargle.
An unknown person was stumbling through the forest. His body was severely damaged. It was hard to even tell if he were still alive or just walking with what little energy his body held on to.
'...almost...'
Not too far away, an angry pink haired girl was briskly walking away from the village. "Freakin Ino Pig...how dare she do that to me..." She fought back tears as she sat behind a tree. "All of them will never look at me the same..." She curled her knees up to her chest, sniffling as she did. "The look on his face..." She looked up into the tree's branches. "She won't ge.." She suddenly heard a loud thud not too far from her. "Huh? What was..." She slowly got up, walking towards the origination of the sound. She walked around a tree and gasped, covering her mouth at the scene before her.
"Ah..." a boy could be seen there, wheezing and coughing up blood. His body was covered in blood, dirt, and wounds. A few Kunai stuck out from his legs and a few shuriken from his arms. The young girl was frozen with shock and fear. Not knowing what to do.
The young man tried to get up again. "No...I won't...die like this..." He stands up, looking forward. He looks at the girl, but it did not seem he even noticed her. "Got to..." he takes another step closer to her. "Get" one more step. "To..." he then falls, collapsing inches from her feet. "Ko...no...ha..." He sighed, finally allowing his body to give into fatigue.
The girl looked down, immediately dropping down. "You...were heading to
Konoha..." She looked him over. "These wounds...what happened to you"
She then looks around. "There is no way I can carry him on my own..." she
tears off a large piece of her red clothing she was wearing and drapped it over
the young man. She leaned down and whispered. "It's ok...i'll watch over you. stay still and quiet...i'll go get help..." She didn't know if he had
heard her, but she immediately headed back towards the village.
------------
"I don't care who started it, doing what you did was improper and absolutely uncalled for, do you understand me Ino!" A blonde haired young woman looked down at her feet. "Sorry Iruka-sensei..."
"Now, go back into the classroom. I'll go find Sakura..." he sighed. "What am I going to do with you two. You two are almost as bad as Sasuke and Naruto..."
He was watching Ino walk towards the door as Sakura came running through some bushes near the academy. Ino blinks. "Sakura?"
Sakura flashed Ino a look before running over to Iruka. "Iruka-sensei!" She gasped for air. "Forest...guy...person...pain...blood..."
Iruka placed his hands on Sakura's shoulders. "Woah woah, slow down Sakura. Take deep breaths. Now, what's the matter?"
After catching her breath, she looks up at him. "I found...a boy out in the
forest...he's badly wounded. He passed out right in front of me...he.
he's dying Iruka-sensei..."
Iruka's eyes widend. "Oh..." he looked at Ino, who seemed just as shocked as he
was. "Ino, go back in class and tell everyone to begin reading the next chapter.
I'll be back as soon as I can." Ino gulped, then nodded. He then looked back
at Sakura. "Lead the way." She nodded, turning and took off back into the forest.
Ino watched them go. She looked down at her feet. "..."
--------------
'What's...going on...'
Wind was blowing through his hair. His body felt weightless.
'How...am I moving...no...I can't be...dead...'
A thump could be heard as the speed increased on his floating.
'No...not...dead...i'm being...carried...'
The young man opened his eye slightly. He saw the trees flying past him. He looked down, seeing a vest in front of him. Looking back at the trees. He saw something pink flowing. Before he could see who or what it was, he passed out again.
"Will he be ok, Iruka-sensei?" Sakura looked up at him.
"He should be fine as long as we get him to the medical ward ASAP. You very well
just saved this young man's life..." Iruka looks at Sakura. "Good job Sakura"
He smiled.
Sakura looks ahead. "...I guess you're right..." she smiles, nodding. The two
ran through the clearing and through town towards the medical ward.
------------------
The fire blazed brightly all around him. He breathed heavily, holding his right
arm. "Why...why have you done all this!?" He looked up, seeing 4 nin standing on
a roof top. In front of them stood another man. He couldn't see any of their
faces, or even their voices. All he could see, suddenly, was a bright white
light. "Ah...so...bright..."
"...ing...'s...ckly..."
'What...who's that...'
"Ye...I was sho..."
'Voices...'
"His wounds were horrible...but now they are mere scratches and minimal scars now. It's unheard of..." The young man saw two women standing near him, dressed in white, clipboards in their hand. "oh, he's awake! Good morning! How are you feeling?"
The young man looked around, seeing he was no longer in the forest. He was now in a hospital room. He looked down at his body, seeing bandages all over. He tried to sit up, but could hardly move.
"No no, don't try to get up just yet. Your body still hasn't completely regained its strength." The nurses jumped a bit, looking down and grabbing a beeper from their waist. "Oops, we have to go. You stay here and rest!" they bow, walking out of the door, closing it quietly behind them.
"..." He looked around once more. "...I made it...but how..." the flash of
pink ran through his mind again. "...who found me...who saved me..." He
managed to raise his hand up, looking at the wrappings around it.
---------------------
Sakura could not pay attention in class today. She kept catching herself looking
out the window. 'I wonder if he'll wake up today...it's been almost a week...'
"...ura...Hey Sakura!" Sakura jumped, looking down at Iruka. "Ah um...hai, Iruka-sensei?"
Iruka smiled. "Make sure you talk to me after class. There is something important I must discuss with you."
Sakura blinked, then nodded. "Hai.."
After school ended and everyone left, Sakura walked up to Iruka. "You wanted to speak with me?"
Iruka nodded. "yes...that boy you found. I was informed earlier that he opened his eyes today."
Sakura's heart jumped a little, a smile creeped across her face. "He...he did?!"
Iruka nodded. "And we are needed to go talk to him. He's refused to talk to anyone but the ones who found him. Let's lock up and head over there."
Sakura nodded. "I need to stop by my house first. I have something for him."
Iruka blinked, then nodded. "Of course"
-
"Could you at least tell us your name? We need it for the records."
"I'm sorry..." The young man looked back out the window. "Tell me when they get here..."
The nurse sighs. "Of course..."
The nurse leaves, closing the door quietly behind her. The man sighs. "I hate to be stubborn...but I have to thank them...and find out for myself.."
The door opened again. "Ah, so you are awake.."
He looked towards the door. A man with a scar across his nose was standing there. "...hello."
Iruka nodded. "Hello yourself. My name is Iruka. I heard you were wanting to speak to the one who saved you."
The man forced himself up to a sitting position. "...and you are the one who saved me?"
Iruka laughed. "Well, actually i'm nothing more then the one who transported you
here. The person who found you and actually saved you was this one." Iruka moved.
Sakura could be seen standing there, her hands behind her back. "H..hello."
The man's eyes widen a bit. 'Pink hair...she was the one I saw...'
Sakura walked in. "I'm glad to see you are doing better. You began to scare us.."
The man blinked. "Scare you? How?"
Sakura looked up at him. "You've been asleep for almost a week now..."
The man's eyes widen again, slowly closing. "...a week..." his eyes open slowly. "I see..." He looks at her. "I'm sorry...I didn't catch your name..."
Sakura blinks. "Oh, my name is Haruno Sakura. Pleased to meet you." She bows, standing back up. "And y-"
"Sakura..." his eyes were soft, looking at her. Sakura blushed a little, looking into his emerald green eyes. "Did you...happen to find two others anywhere around?"
Sakura blinks. "Two...others?"
"Yes...a red haired ninja and a blue haired one with shades."
Iruka blinks. "No...you were the only one we found. We've had a few other ANBU surveying the area as well. No one else has been found..."
The man's eyes close. He lays back down, sighing. "I see..." He looks back at Sakura. "...guess I was the only one..."
Sakura tilts her head. "The only one?"
Iruka rests his hand on her shoulder. "Come on, he needs to rest now..." Sakura looks at him, nodding.
The man looks up. "Can...she stay? I know no one here in this village...and she was the one who saved me...she'd be the only person I could talk to at this point..."
Iruka looked at him. "Well...I don't kn-"
Sakura interrupted. "I'd be glad to." he looks up at Iruka. "It's ok...I made a promise when I found him. I'd be an idiot not to fulfill the promise."
Iruka looked at her, nodded and smiled. "Ok...but do not stay too late. You have class in the morning."
"Hai Iruka-sensei!" she nods.
Iruka waves and leaves, closing the door behind him.
Sakura walks around the bed and sits in a chair next to his bed. "I...didn't get to get your name...do you mind telling me?"
The man blinks, blushing a bit. "Oh wow...excuse my rudeness. You told me yours and I completely didn't return the favor."
Sakura smiles. "It's ok...what is it?"
The man grins. "My name...is Yoshimaru Jaykoya. Glad to meet you...um...considering the informal circumstances, do you mind that I call your Sakura-chan?"
Sakura blushes, but nods. "I don't mind." She instinctively scoots a little closer to the bed. "If you don't mind me calling you Jay-kun."
Jaykoya smiles. "not at all."
She blushes once more, looking down. "Um...you said only one...only one what, if you don't mind me asking."
"...that's right...I haven't got to tell anyone yet...i'm sure news has reached your Hokage, but it isn't public yet..." he looks up at the ceiling. "I'm from the Hidden village of the volcano..."
Sakura's eyes widen, looking up at him. "The mythical Dragon Nin?"
Jaykoya nods. "The same...well...up until a few weeks ago, we were a completely hidden and secluded village. The only two villages we ever made contact with was the hidden Sand village and this one. We knew it was foolish to try to exist alone, so we made those two alliances. However...we were attacked by an unknown assailant..."
"...and...is that why you ended up here?"
He nodded. "Along with Anireth and Sentro, we were the only ones to manage a successful escape...the others who were with us..."
Sakura rested her hand on his. "...i'm sorry...Anireth and Sentro...those are your two friends correct?"
Jaykoya looked at her hand, then at her. "Yes...we managed to get far, but our attackers were still tailing us. For some reason, Anireth and Sentro told me to go ahead and leave them to stall. I did not want to, but we were separated by a terrible explosion. In the midst of it all, I lost track of them. I was attacked in my few moments of disbelief. I ran as fast as I could with the wounds I attained..."
"And that's when I found you..." She smiles. "i'm glad I was out there...or who knows what would have happened to you..."
Jaykoya grins. "yea...i'd probably be wolf bait at this point...thank you again Sakura-chan..."
She shakes her head. "No need...I am just glad I could help..." She looks at all the bandages. "I don't recall any wounds to your torso...why is it so bandaged up?"
Jaykoya looks away. "...I keep bandages wrapped around my torso at all time..."
Sakura was going to ask why, but she felt he'd talked enough. "I got you a little something..." she removed her hand from his and reached behind her.
He turns his head to her. "huh?"
She takes out a small glove. "When I found you, one of your gloves was completely
gone and you had your other one still intact. I thought i'd grab you another"
She offered it to him.
Jaykoya blinks, then reaches out, taking it. "..." he puts it on, letting it form to his hand. "it's perfect...thank you Sakura-chan..." He looks at her smiling.
She blushes, nodding. "I guess it's an official welcome present to Konoha..." she smiles.
Jaykoya rests his head back. "...welcome indeed..." he sighs. "Have you ever...been so tired you could just die...yet your mind and heart won't let you fall asleep..."
Sakura looks at him. "Jay-kun..."
He closes his eyes, a tear running down his cheek. "They're all gone...every single one of them...gone..." he grips his bed sheets, biting his bottom lip as he did. He suddenly felt his body being shifted. His head now rests on Something softer then the pillow. Sakura had sat on the bed and rested his head on her stomach, holding him softly.
"You've been through so much...go ahead...let it all out...you deserve to have a moment of grief for your friends..." she gently pets his head. Jaykoya then began to silently sob into her softly.
Sakura smiled. "That's it..." she then felt jaykoya's body go slightly limp.
"Hm?" she looked down, almost laughing. Jaykoya had fallen completely
asleep in her embrace. "Jay-kun..."
