Drowning Fish
February 4: drowned fields
Confidence was never a thing the legendary sannin lacked, so used to being prodigious in any of their undertaking, be it singly or as a group. But even Tsunade-hime had no cure for death, and thus being so unused to being stumped like this, she felt like fish out of water. The irony of it all was that there was so much water around her—the rain, her tears, his blood—and if only the world was a bowl to catch it all in one place, she wouldn't be gasping her eyeballs out and, perhaps, her brain would be actually working.
Instead, the world was an oxymoron. Hatefully, it throbbed with life while he lay dead in front of her. So there she was, hungering for oxygen, a landed fish in drowning fields.
