I've been playing Trauma Center recently... So expect some Trauma Center styled operation next chapter...!
Hmm... I wonder what disease Nenin has... That's for you to find out!
I just reread this chapter and noticed a lot of paragraphs and sentences out of order, sorry! They're fixed now.
"Nen..." I drawled, he carried me for quite a while, I think I can support my own weight now. But jeez, he's never held me so easily before. The stomach pain lessened and soon disappeared.
"You can let me go now..." I felt his wet paws pressured into holding my backside. His paws were most likely a mixture of furry strength and invoked resentment, along with the rest of his new body. Although I wonder if he'll stay like this forever, Zenaq died of his own creation and I don't want that to happen to Nen at all.
Nen looked back to see if there were any remaining violent tidal waves in our direction and then we landed on the ground when he realized we were too far from the waves. He crouched down and released me, and I lay on the grass face-up glancing at the dark clouds and rain drops that come before us. When will the rain stop too...? I used my right hand to support me while standing up in somewhat anticipation. They seemed so down and it shouldn't be like that, so I decided to cheer 'em up.
"Come on guys...! Why always so serious?" Despite us fleeing, we at least have some information on the mission... Right?
"Well, Sironar... You did start the fight... You just had to barge in, didn't ya?" Y'know... It had to be done Kemari, it was a family thing! She stood impatiently, and Nen leaned against a nearby tree with his fuzzy arms over his head.
"Besides... If I didn't barg-"
"Nngh...!"
"Nen!" We yelled in unison while rushing toward him, he held both of his hands on his heart area and slowly falling on his knees. Kemari crouched down near him and lifted his shirt, Nen despairingly cooperated with her.
"Sironar...! He barely has a pulse!" Huh? That can't be! We have to get him to a hospital...!
"H-Hey...! There's... Red pigment spots here!" Red... Pigment spots...? Dammit, what's that mean? Kemari placed her hand on Nen's furry chest, which was conditioned with some sort of a red tint around his heart area. This must be the red pigment spots Kemari was talking about, even while Nen is in his powerful wolf form he still is in serious pain from the heart! This must be real bad!
"K-Kemari! Where are we now?" I look to my surroundings but all I see are damp tree trunks, this is the only opening in the forest it seems.
"Uhh, it looks like we're... Three kilometers from the north-east border of the Land of Lightning." Three kilo-Dammit! We're too far from the Hidden Leaf Village! How can Nen make it there?
"How will we get Nen to the Hidden Leaf Village? That's too far from here!" We have to save Nen no matter what!
"I have something... But it's extremely difficult to pull off!"
"What is it?"
"I can't heal him, that's the job of the medical examiners, but, if I use the leaves here, I can somehow open a rift to the Hidden Leaf Village...!"
"Worth a shot Kemari!" That'll get us there in an instant!
"B-But... I won't be able to go with you and the technique takes a tremendous amount of chakra!" Dammit! What if we both do the technique...? Ugh, she'll still be here alone though...
"What if we perform the jutsu together? Don't worry about me!" She nodded in agreement, although she must know that she'll be here by herself... She instructed me to gather several leaves and I did just so.
"Hang in there Nen!" I encouraged him, he must be in real pain and it pains ME to see him like that, without anything to do to him to make him feel better.
"Sironar, place this tag on one of the leaves." The long tag had the bloody symbols of インスタント旅行. I wrapped the paper tag around the closest leaf among that those circled me and Kemari did the same to Nen. I lightly threw Kemari the Half-Spear of Light with my broken wrist and she caught it unknowingly of my intentions.
"Use that to protect yourself; it's already activated." I assured as her face changed from confused to a 'thank you' expression. We both nodded and we did about nine hand signs and exclaimed...
"Ninja Art, Instant Travel jutsu!"
"!" I stepped back a little; a huge purple-black hole appeared before Nen and me. It looked really scary but it'd be soon over with. I closed my eyes while being swallowed into an abyss of blindness. It felt like insanity; unable to comprehend where I am... I couldn't see Nen, but I held my breath and wished for it to be over soon, and be able to see him again.
...
"Eeek!"
"S-Sironar...?" Huh...? I opened my eyes and I lay front-sided on the graveled road with my arms extended in front of me. The voice that called me didn't sound familiar and I was hesitant to get up. There was no rain present but I was still a bit wet. Wait... Where am I...?
"W-Who are you...?" I sat up, wiping my eyes but couldn't recognize my surroundings.
"How'd you know my-wait..." I paused for a moment... Where's Nen! I
"D-Did you see anyone that... That wore red clothing and looked like a wolf?" That question didn't sound realistic... I regained sense of recognizing and the girl was who we've traveled with at the beginning of the mission... Before she turned into Kemari... Who was she...? Maybe she is Kemari! She has dark blue hair like me, pure white eyes like the colors of Kemari's clothing, and a beige jacket. She has a soft tone to her voice which might mean that she's shy, but somehow knows my name. And she's from this village by the headband that worn on her neck, like I do, only she has the Hidden Leaf Village on her neck and I have mine worn as a belt when I received it when graduating from the Academy, my other village band is worn in the same style as her; on the neck, but that one is from the Hidden Moon Village. I stood up, and I was around the same height as her, only a little taller.
"I have to find Nen...! He's seriously hurt!" I look around and we really are in the center of the Hidden Leaf Village, we're in the middle of an empty road in one of the districts. To our left, a brown, wooden fence, to our right, closed-up shops whose structure was worn and broken apart.
"Ack!" We both shrieked, a purple-black portal opened right before us, and I told the girl to step back. It looked strangely similar to the rift that transported me here, but, still... Something awful could reap out waiting to tear our flesh.
"Nen!" I yell out, his body was thrown out of the portal and he landed on the hard stones of the ground. He's probably unconscious... I ran up to him with my hand on top of his warm back.
"Hey...! Could you help me for a sec...?" I don't remember where the hospital is; I usually don't remember anything like that. But she must know where it is!
"...Uh... O-Okay." She came closer to me with her hands near her chest. I rolled Nen over; he wasn't in his wolf form so I could easily recognize him.
"H-He's really bleeding...!" She gently laid her hand on Nen's forehead, which was his normal face, but he still kept his wolf ears. Wait, wolf ears? By the Moon Oracle how'd he return to his normal form and still kept an aspect from his wolf form...?
"Huh?" My right hand was sticky and I lifted it up.
"!" There's blood on my hand! I immediately check to see where the blood came from, it was from his heart area, before it was just a red pigment spot, but now... There's a, a cut, and a big one!
"H-Hey! Where's the Konoha Hospital?"
"I-I'll help you there." She answered; she volunteered to help carry Nen because she noticed my broken, bandaged wrist. He was a bit heavier than I expected... Although I still pulled through in carrying him.
...
"Shizune prep the O.R, this isn't something regular you see every day!" Lady Sundae! Nen was in a light stretcher and was carried to an emergency operation room by the person that Lady Sundae called Shizune. I motioned the girl that helped me carry Nen here to follow me into the operation room. The sign above the door read; 'Emergency Operation Room 2'. We entered as the commotion from the entrance continued to be out of control. I closed the door behind me and I looked around the fairly large and empty room. Dark blue-green tiles covered the floor, walls and the ceiling. All the equipment is at the center, where a large circular lamp lit up Nen on the stretcher. There was also other unusual medical supply that I don't know of. We quietly walked to the center and three people were already there; Lady Sundae, the lady named Shizune and pink forehead girl. I wanted to keep as silent as possible to avoid creating any mistakes that they can make.
"Starting the briefing...!"
