Looking in the Nooks and Crannies
Hi! Thanks to all! I hope I addressed the concerns of those who reviewed and I appreciate you reviewing!
I would like to state again, I haven't read or watched all of the mange/anime, which means that I am not familiar with every character arc and story line. So if you see an inconsistency it can probably be attributed to that.
Sorry for my use of OCs, that will change, I only use them to help guide the story not be important to it.
Chapter 3: The Truths, Little and Small, All Hurt the Same
Naruto woke up the next morning, a good amount of his bruises were gone, having faded with the Kyuubi's healing. Sitting up with a yawn he blinked and looked around the room. A moment of confusion came upon him, he didn't recognize where he was. It was warm though and it wasn't under the bridge. A moment later and he remembered where he was. Kakashi sensei had taken him in. The next thing hit him. He was supposed to meet team seven today at 8:00am.
Scrambling from his bed he looked around the room for the time. On the bedside table was an alarm clock. It read 7:49am. Naruto's eyes went wide and he tumbled from the bed, instantly regretting it as his ribs screamed abuse. He threw open the closet doors, seeing that all of his wardrobe had been hung up. Choosing something at random, Naruto put it on as fast as he could. He thought about breakfast for a second before throwing the thought out the door. He didn't have time. Jumping to the window sill, he began running along the rooftops, hoping that he wouldn't be late.
He arrived at the bridge within five minutes, a few minutes after 8:00am. Sakura was standing on the bridge staring at Sasuke who was staring down at the water. When they heard Naruto's loud 'good morning' Sasuke let out a soft 'tsk' and looked away while Sakura looked up at her teammate.
"You're late!" Sakura shouted.
She was still upset over the last mission. Naruto let out a sheepish grin, scratching the back of his head.
"Sensei isn't even here, so it's not like it matters," Sasuke said.
"Oh, right, of course, you're so right."
Naruto let out a soft sigh and walked to the bank, sinking into the grass. His ribs still hurt. The minutes oozed by and Kakashi didn't show up. Finally a ninken appeared, Akino with his pair of dark aviator glasses.
Naruto jumped up and moved over to the dog, a huge smile on his face, while Sakura turned with interest.
"Kakashi couldn't come yet, but he wants you to start on your mission."
The dog set a scroll it had in its mouth on the ground. Sakura bent to pick it up.
"I'll be overseeing you three until he can come."
The three children weren't paying attention, the two boys crowded around Sakura as they all tried to read what the mission said.
Naruto let out a loud groan.
"Not another D-rank! I thought we were past all of these!"
The other two didn't say anything, but both looked put out. It was painting walls in some of the newly built condos. Just another mission that involved part of the reconstruction process. No one had ever mentioned the cleanup when talking about epic battles between great ninja.
Naruto turned on Akino, "Can't we get a different mission? A C-rank? Please!?"
The dog growled a little in annoyance. "Let's head to the address."
The three genin set out on their way.
"Hiraoka-san!" Kakashi greeted.
A tall, lean woman turned. She had short butch hair, a muscled figure and stood several inches higher than Kakashi.
"So formal Kakashi," she said, voice deep.
Kakashi eye smiled. "Sorry, Akifumi."
The kunoichi had ebony skin and bright green eyes. Her name summed her up pretty well as the opposite of feminine. Kakashi knew her well, a medic nin who had spent her first year in ANBU working under Kakashi. She fell in the ranks of the many ANBU who had made it less than a year. A mission had ended badly and she had been severely injured, chakra store minimized, declared incapable of continuing in service. Now she worked at the hospital as a healer. They weren't close, but they had an unusual level of trust since he had been the one to save her when she had been left for dead.
"Still reading those disgusting books?"
Kakashi chuckled nervously. Akifumi shook her head.
"What do you want?" She asked shortly. Akifumi wasn't really social.
"You work with children?"
Akifumi nodded, giving a hum of agreeance. Working with children required less chakra and higher levels of chakra control due to children's sensitive and underdeveloped chakra systems, work perfect for the kunoichi after her injury. They were standing in an office in the hospital, a wide window letting light in and the blinds raised so Konoha could be seen.
"I need some advice."
Akifumi looked expectantly at the man.
"Is it normal for a twelve year old to wet the bed?"
Akifumi seemed surprised by the question. Turning from where she was leaned up against her desk she sat down in a chair.
"It is a little unusual for that age, but not anything to worry about. It can be linked to something as simple as the child being a deep sleeper to them not producing enough of an anti-diuretic hormone. These are all things which balance out with time. Is this one of your genin?"
Kakashi nodded.
"Stress can be a trigger. If your team has gone through a difficult mission or the child is struggling with something. The best way to solve that would be to try to eliminate the stressor, maybe talk them through it, make sure they feel safe."
Kakashi let out a soft sigh. He couldn't think of something much more stressful than being homeless, Naruto had to be facing many fears and after yesterday's interaction at the grocery store he doubted his student felt safe in any way. What was he supposed to do though? In his opinion teaching should be as hands off as possible.
Akifumi watched Kakashi for a moment, before speaking again.
"Who is it? Would I know them?"
"Uzumaki Naruto."
Akifumi shifted slightly. She was ten years older than Kakashi, she had been a chuunin at the time of the foxes attack and had been a low level medic nin at the time. Kakashi watched her for her response.
"Then there could be other possible stressors. I don't know much about the Kyuubi's chakra, but I did do a study in chakra melding. It can be painful to have two chakras in your body. Though I imagine his seal would be designed to prevent that."
Kakashi gauged her further. She was one of the most objective shinobi he had met, to a point of being ruthless, but she didn't let her emotions get in the way of doing her job.
"He was hurt recently, I was hoping to have a medic nin help him."
Akifumi nodded. "I don't have much chakra so I wouldn't be able to do anything intensive." She paused a moment, thinking, "you should bring him in for a check up. I'm one of the best diagnosticians in Konoha. It would help to determine the cause of the bed wetting. In rare cases, there is a medical reason behind bed wetting."
Kakashi nodded. "What should twelve year olds eat?"
Akifumi let out a deep laugh, eyeing her previous superior with mirth. She reached to a bookcase behind her and drew down a scroll and some ink with a brush. She flashed through a few signs and drew a symbol on the paper. With a poof it was rolled and sealed. She handed it to Kakashi.
"There's list of ingredients and some recipes. Bring the boy in today and I can heal him and do an in depth diagnostic check. Anytime is good, I'll be in office today, I don't have many patients at the moment."
Kakashi nodded, standing up and leaving the office. Neither said a farewell.
Kakashi landed in the street, block 5-3 of the new condos. His students were supposed to be painting the walls of the rooms. He made his way to where his team had been assigned, a ground level cluster of apartments. Kakashi walked past stacks of mixing concrete and thick wood planks which left the air with the pleasant smell of pinewood. Scaffolding was set up on the opposite side of the street where construction was under way for another housing development.
Kakashi kept walking, seeing Akino lounging on the lawn of the apartment complex, several feet from an open door. Kakashi nodded at his ninken and the dog gave a nod back, disappearing in a poof of smoke. Voices were coming from the open door of the apartment, floating out and making Kakashi smile as he recognized the sharp reprimand of a certain pink haired kunoichi pointed towards both her teammates. Apparently a competition wasn't the best idea for doing a good paint job. Kakashi stepped closer, hands digging into his pockets, he hesitated at the threshold, the sharp acrid smell of paint wafting from the apartment. He savored the sunlight for a second more before stepping in. His three students were situated in the living room, blue paint-stained tarps covering the floor and blue masking tape carefully covering the floor borders.
All three were armed with rollers, a pan set in the middle of the floor and a bucket of white paint next to it. Sakura had a hand on her hip and was looking ferociously at the two boys, her roller waving up and down as she shouted.
"Paint the ceiling first! The ceiling first you bakas!"
Naruto and Sasuke rushed to listen to the terrifying kunoichi. Kakashi held back a laugh as even Sasuke bent to the will of Sakura, a tiny bit of fear evident on his face. Kakashi stood in the doorway, watching the boys work and Sakura supervise. They only had two ladders and both the boys perched themselves on them, arms reaching up to get to the ceiling.
Kakashi frowned as he thought about the state of Naruto's ribs and how it must be painful for the boy to be making the movements he was. Naruto however, had nothing on his face indicating that he was in pain, no facial tic, no small winces of pain or drawn brow. In fact he had a slight smile, tongue sticking out in concentration as he used both hands to carefully move the brush along the ceiling. Maybe the fox had already healed the injuries.
Sakura turned, keen eyes surveying the boys' work, when she saw Kakashi.
"Oh! Kakashi-sensei! I didn't know you were there!"
Kakashi eye smiled and waved two fingers at them, letting out a small 'yo'. His amusement grew as Sasuke directed an annoyed glare in his direction and Naruto twisted around on the ladder.
The pinkette frowned, "Why weren't you here yesterday? We had a meeting and neither you or Naruto showed up!"
Naruto looked a little frightened and worried at Sakura's words, glancing over at Kakashi. Kakashi watched as Sasuke took in Naruto's face and then looked over at Kakashi, Sasuke's gaze narrowed in suspicion and a calculative curiosity entered his eyes.
"Maa, this little girl had her candy stolen and I had to get it back for her."
Sakura narrowed her eyes and shook her head, mind thinking reprimandingly about how much their teacher lied. Kakashi sprang to the window sill and situated himself on it so his back was against part of the frame and he could turn his face to the outside and inside. He pulled out his Icha Icha Strap, a newer novel which he was greatly anticipating, one foot hanging out the window and the other placed on the sill.
The children took it as a dismissal and Sakura turned and began yelling once again, not even Sasuke was spared her wrath. It was funny how unskilled the children were with the activity, Sakura being the only one with knowledge on how to go about the activity. One could only assume this was a fact of Naruto and Sasuke both being orphans and children of shinobi. Sakura's parents were civilians and had no doubt involved her at some point with such a plebeian activity. A quarter of an hour passed and the room grew hot as the sun reached its peak in the noon day sky. Naruto was forced to forego his heavy orange jacket and was left in a faded black t-shirt while Sakura pulled her short hair back in a small ponytail.
"Dobe, what's that?"
Naruto frowned and turned toward Sasuke. The boy was pointing at his stomach. Naruto frowned in confusion.
"What's what? And don't call me dobe, teme!" Naruto returned angrily.
Sasuke moved forward and grabbed the hem of Naruto's shirt, yanking it up without warning. A motley collection of bruises was exposed, covering the whole of Naruto's chest. Sakura turned to look, even as Naruto struggled away from Sasuke.
"Stop it you teme! Don't be such a freakin' perv!"
"Oh my-what happened?" Sakura said, eyes wide at the amount of damage on her teammate without any reason as to it being there.
Naruto had jerked away from Sasuke, the black haired boy having relinquished his hold. Naruto tensed at the question. Kakashi meanwhile was watching surreptitiously from the window. It seemed the Kyuubi hadn't healed Naruto's injuries. The boy had done a genius job of hiding his pain, Kakashi thought with a dull sense of worry.
Sakura mistook Naruto's silence as embarrassment rather than fear of discovery.
"Did you go sneaking in the girls' bathing houses again with that perverted old man with the white hair!?"
"No!" Naruto loudly objected.
"I-just-" Naruto stuttered, struggling to come up with an explanation that wouldn't paint him as a pervert but also wouldn't give them the truth.
"Got beat up by someone stronger than you?" Sasuke asked with a scoff.
Naruto immediately flushed, anger rising. "No! I didn't! They weren't stronger than me! I-" Naruto froze as what he had just said seemed to sink in.
It was true, Suematsu wasn't stronger than Naruto, and even if he had been-
"So you just let them beat you up? Sounds right, dobe."
Sasuke's comment seemed to strike something in Naruto and the boy recognized it.
"No," Naruto protested, sounding weaker, gaze distant and the fear from before, which had paralyzed him in the face of Suematsu, back.
"It's just, we're not supposed to-" Naruto stopped, a look of heartbreaking confusion on his face along with a sense of being lost. Naruto shook his head, faraway gaze darkening and head ducking down partially.
"Nothing happened," he finished gruffly, turning away from his teammates.
Sakura flipped her hair contemptuously, apparently still thinking that Naruto had been given the due justice every peeping Tom was dealt when caught. Sasuke however looked slightly perturbed, mouth opening to say more. Kakashi chose that moment to step in.
"Lunch break!" He called cheerfully, three bento boxes in hand which he gave to each of them.
Sakura took hers with a polite 'arigato' while Sasuke mumbled out something which may have been an indication of gratitude. Naruto went to head out but Kakashi stopped him, earning a grumpy look from the blonde and a quick look of inquisitiveness from Sasuke.
"Naruto, I need to speak with you a moment."
Naruto shrugged and sat down cross legged on the floor of the apartment, opening up the bento box. Kakashi let out a soft sigh at the childish behavior before bending to sit down himself. Naruto began eating while Kakashi spent a few moments watching his student, pondering. He was slightly confused as to why Naruto hadn't fought Suematsu, the boy had never backed down from a challenge, no matter the form it took. But judging from his response easier, Kakashi had a feeling it was a little more complicated than that.
"Has Suematsu hurt you before?" Kakashi asked quietly.
Naruto slumped over his food, noisily masticating with a focus Kakashi would think the boy was incapable of if he wasn't seeing it.
"Hai," Naruto responded in a surly tone.
Kakashi let out another silent sigh, inwardly begging himself to keep his patience. The brat was being insufferable, however to some degree it was understandable, trauma was stressful and in the face of it people all responded differently, Kakashi had enough experience with this when he was an ANBU captain.
"How old were you?"
Naruto glared up at his teacher, an uncharacteristic anger on his face, deeper and more profound than the usual flaring temper of the blonde.
"Why does that matter?"
Kakashi didn't answer. Naruto gave in a few moments later, shrugging a shoulder as he began eating again.
"Six."
Kakashi didn't respond, his own heart sighing in regret. Fear instilled in someone at a young age often never left. It was nearly ironic, that Naruto could fearlessly face down a jinchuuriki that murdered for sheer pleasure but was stricken by fear to the point of being unable to defend himself when faced by an abuser from his past. What words could Kakashi use to soothe the child? How could he help anyone when he himself couldn't even yet face his own demons?
"I need you to meet me at the Konohagakure hospital after your mission is done. Room 217, if you need to, ask for Hiraoka Akifumi."
Naruto frowned in confusion.
"But why?" The blonde protested, looking frustrated and annoyed.
Kakashi smiled, ruffling Naruto's hair before getting to his feet.
"Maa, my little genin, because I said so."
Naruto's face scrunched up even more. "That doesn't explain anything!"
Kakashi held back a laugh as he got up and went out of the apartment, the blonde jumping to his feet and following his teacher outside. The four sat and ate lunch, playfully bantering and talking to each other, Sasuke actually being humorous by stealing food off of Naruto's bento, which Kakashi then joined in on doing, angering Naruto to a degree of yelling which had Sakura yelling and whacking him on the head. Kakashi of course returned the food, without Naruto noticing and Sasuke gave Naruto some of his food.
After the lunch, they went back to working, Kakashi disappearing with an order for Naruto to entertain Ms. Yamamoto, an elderly woman who ran the apartment complex. Naruto was regaled by stories of Ms. Yamamoto's many cats and had stale rice cakes shoved down his throat, but he was sitting the whole time, no extraneous movement being done which could've exacerbated his injuries.
"Oi! Naruto! We're done dobe!"
Naruto looked up, relief apparent on his face. He was sitting with a cup of tea in hand, a cat on his shoulder and an album of Cats a la Noir, the third of a series of albums exploring the complexities of colors and attempting to capture the free spirit of a cat as expressed in those colors, in his lap. Ms. Yamamato had been planning on showing him Cats a la Nu, one she had described as more 'free spirited'.
Naruto dumped the saucer, cats and album with a quick thank you and a small polite bow, leaving the woman in the dust as she continued on with her explanation of Mr. Snowball's camera shy tendencies.
"I thought I was never going to get away from that old bat!" Naruto yelled, shuddering at the recalled memory of the piss colored tea.
"Don't be so rude, Naruto, she's your elder," Sakura tried to sound serious, but she was having a hard time concealing her mirth at Naruto's situation.
Even Sasuke was smiling in amusement. Neither of his teammates complained about him not painting the rest of the apartment with them. They walked down and away from the apartment, not realizing that they were walking together; there was a pleasant sense of unrealized companionship. It was Naruto who changed pace first.
"I have to get to the hospital, Kaka-sensei wants me there for some reason."
"Oh, okay, Naruto, I hope you feel better."
Naruto beamed at the kind comment of his pink haired teammate. Sasuke just shrugged, giving a small wave as Naruto ran off. Sakura waved too, a small smile on her face. Naruto disappeared from view and the two stood there awkwardly for a moment, both realizing that they were alone together.
"Sooooo, Sasuke, I was wondering-"
Sakura froze as she looked around and realized that the only people left standing in the street were her and some dust. She let out a disgruntled huff of air, looking bleakly resigned.
Akifumi stared for a moment.
"You're on time," she said, a touch of amazement in her voice.
Kakashi sweat dropped, he wasn't that late that often. He paused a moment in reflection and felt his defense disappear as experience and memories stood against him. Akifumi shook her head. They were in a basic examination room, a bed placed with its head against the wall and the subtle smell of sterilization in the air.
The door blew open and Naruto walked in, stomping glory of attention-drawing that he was. He paused hesitantly though when he took in Hiraoka Akifumi.
"Who are you?" He asked rudely.
Kakashi wanted to smack him in the head, who had taught this kid manners?
Akifumi raised a brow.
"Be polite, Naruto," Kakashi reprimanded.
Akifumi let out a low, quiet laugh and eyed Kakashi with amusement.
"My name is Hiraoka Akifumi, I am a doctor."
"Isn't Akifumi a boy name? I haven't seen anyone like you before, why do you look so differ-"
Kakashi placed a well timed hand over his student's mouth.
"Ah, such a curious little genin," he said with a placating smile.
Akifumi gave a tiny shake of her head and brushed Kakashi aside.
"Onto the bed," Akifumi said, waving a hand at the bed.
Naruto clambered on, the paper beneath him crinkling.
"Akifumi is a boy name, and it is my name. I look different because I am different," Akifumi spoke as she prepared a few things at a station to the side.
She moved over to Naruto.
"Now, are there any more questions?" She asked with a raised brow.
Naruto shook his head quickly.
"Good, questions are precious, you should always be careful with how and why you use them."
Naruto nodded his head.
"I am going to be doing a full check up on you. For this I will need you to lay down and be very still. While I am checking you over, I need you to not do anything with your chakra, if you don't feel like you can, tell me now and I can put you to sleep."
Naruto nodded his head, then, meekly he spoke.
"It won't hurt?"
Akifumi shook her head, "it should feel warm, I won't be using much chakra so you won't be able to feel anything significantly, and even if you did, it wouldn't hurt."
Naruto nodded his head.
"Do you have any questions?"
Naruto shook his head.
"Will you lay back?"
Naruto complied. Kakashi couldn't help but feel a little jealous at how easily Akifumi had gotten Naruto to comply and at how quiet the boy was being for her.
Akifumi stepped closer to the bed, speaking again.
"If you want me to stop, I will, and if you have any questions or want to know what I'm doing, ask. You'll be completely safe."
"Okay," Naruto said softly.
"Close your eyes, it'll be easier to relax that way."
Naruto once again complied. Kakashi watched as Akifumi straightened her shoulders, took a deep breath and then brought her hands to Naruto's head. The soft, comforting glow of healing chakra emanated from her hands, green light illuminating Naruto's hair and face. Her hands stayed there for a while, hovering an inch above Naruto, before slowly moving down. She held her hands over his stomach the longest, but made her way all over his body. While she was doing this a paper she had prepared earlier was being marked in rapid symbols, a medical shorthand Kakashi wasn't familiar with. Minutes passed and finally Akifumi was finished. She stepped back.
"Alright, I want you to sit up now, be careful though. Take your shirt and jacket off, I'm going to heal your injuries."
Naruto sat up and swiveled his body so that his legs were once again dangling from the bed. He unzipped his jacket and tossed it on the bed and began to pull his shirt off. He stopped though and narrowed his eyes at Kakashi. Kakashi stopped himself from rolling his eyes as he turned around. The boy had the strangest sense of propriety.
Akifumi then proceeded to heal Naruto's ribs, mending the bone back together and helping the damaged tissue to be healed. She stepped back. Kakashi turned back around and saw that she had a thin layer of sweat beading on her forehead, exhaustion apparent in her tightly drawn face.
Kakashi looked at her with a small hint of worry.
"Thanks Aki-san! I feel a lot better now!" Naruto had his head down and was staring at his stomach, shirt drawn up, as he prodded at the now faded bruises.
He looked up and frowned.
"What's wrong, Aki-san?"
Akifumi gave a tight, but well meant smile.
"I have low chakra reserves, Naruto. I am exhausted and challenged by my job, something I greatly appreciate. This is quite common. It reminds me that I too, am human."
Naruto frowned in confusion but then smiled, "like being challenged as a ninja, if things weren't hard I wouldn't become a better ninja."
The way she had phrased it allowed Naruto the ability to not feel guilty, Kakashi appreciated it.
"Hai, you are correct, Naruto."
Naruto beamed.
"Now, I need to speak to Kakashi-san about what I learned, he can explain anything you want to know once I've talked to him."
Naruto grabbed his jacket and went to the window, opening it and then jumping out of it with a loud, boisterous farewell. Akifumi waited till he was gone to collapse in a chair, she had the results to the side of her.
Kakashi gave her a few minutes to recover, before she sat up a little straighter in the chair and grabbed the scroll.
"Sit down, this is going to be a while."
Kakashi sat down in the chair opposite of her.
"Naruto has multiple health issues, all of which are being supplemented by the kyuubi's chakra, some completely, others partially. When I say this, I mean that the only reason he appears healthy is because the kyuubi's chakra is ensuring that he is, however there are many problems with this."
Akifumi took in a deep breath- holding the scroll up- and let it out, wind shushing between her teeth and pursed lips.
"It is very subtle, I doubt many others would have noticed it, but I am considered one of the best diagnosticians for a reason. I'll start with the health issues the kyuubi does not fully supplement, or the ones that are too severe for it to correct. The most basic one would be bad chakra control, the kyuubi's efforts to be constantly maintaining Naruto's body to such a degree causes an imbalance in his chakra systems, making chakra control very difficult. He also has vast reserves of chakra which only amplifies this difficulty. Naruto has partial sensorineural hearing loss, I assume from some kind of past trauma. It would help explain the boy's tendency to speak loudly, or any behavior where he expresses lack of comprehension, more often than not it's probably from an inability to hear properly. This can be remedied by an operation, however it would take a skilled doctor, something that I wouldn't be able to do."
Akifumi looked up at Kakashi, giving him a moment to grasp what she was saying and to interject or ask questions if he chose to. Kakashi stayed silent. Akifumi turned her eyes to the paper once again.
"Naruto also has some growth issues, trauma on his growth plates which has me concerned, it's an easy enough fix and if addressed soon won't be a problem in the future. The last is his body's dependency on the kyuubi's chakra for maintaining his health. The kyuubi is making up for a deficit in nearly every necessary thing, from calcium to Vitamins A, D, and C, the deficit is extensive. This could work out for the rest of his life, but if so, he'll always struggle with chakra control to a degree unwarranted. What I can do is place a basic partial chakra suppression on him and then have you begin using dietary and nutritional supplements to help his body start maintaining itself. It will take a while, and it will be difficult. Naruto's entire body would be thrown out of whack and no doubt he would become sick, frail and weak during the time his body adjusted. At the end of it though he would have better chakra control."
Akifumi had held Kakashi's gaze during her explanation and now sat waiting for him to respond. It was a lot to take in, she knew that.
"As for his bed wetting issues," she tacked on, "there isn't any medical problem, it would all be psychological."
The silence stretched on and Akifumi's eyes gained a dark light of understanding.
"It wouldn't be the worst a ninja has lived with though, and it won't be the worst to come. We don't have to do anything."
Akifumi stood, rolling the scroll and moving once again to the small station where she pulled out a paper.
"You're not obligated to do anything Kakashi, he's alive and functioning well enough at the level he is at."
Kakashi followed her movements with his eyes.
"You don't have to help him at all, and if there is one thing we know as shinobi it is that life is suffering, we live as tools for a greater good, nothing more, nothing less. But, if you choose to do something,"
Akifumi paused, turning to Kakashi with a different scroll in hand, gaze heavy as it landed on him.
"You must commit to it, you make your choice and that's that, don't give false hope and don't build something you plan on destroying, it's far crueler than continuing to stand by as you have been doing."
Akifumi passed Kakashi the sealed scroll.
"Open it if you want to commit, if not give it to the council as is required as you as a shinobi in reporting all physical and mental failings of your genin and rest with the fact that you've done your duty."
Kakashi took the scroll and left, once again neither saying farewell.
I hope you guys liked that chapter alright! I hope it didn't disappoint or bore you.
