I could barely feel my legs walking back to our designated tent. Standing up for hours treating children and exerting my chakra to the fullest..I'll say it's not the hardest thing I've done, not even close, but my body says otherwise. I could feel my legs wobbling with each step as we got closer. My body wanted to shut down right then ad there but I was almost there so began to ask myself questions. Questions like why the fuck did our tent have to be the farthest out? Why didn't I train myself for these kinds of hours? Why did I agree to this? WHY-

"Stop mumbling to yourself. It's distracting." Neji commanded.

I stopped in my tracks and looked back at him. He looked disheveled and exhausted just like me. I felt like he wanted to glare but his eyes were too tired to do the expression. "Sorry, didn't realize I was talking out loud." I turned around and kept walking towards our resting place. " I'm just trying to keep my body up and running until we get to the tent. Otherwise-"

"You'll pass out. Yeah, I get it. You haven't done this kind of thing in years so your body's more relaxed."

"Exactly."

"Just don't fall over, I don't want to carry my bags and you."

I chuckled and shook my head. "No need, we're here." I bent down and opened the flaps to get inside and the first thing I see and hear is Tenten peacefully resting on her and Neji's side. Since Tenten worked with the construction crews, she was done way earlier than us, about eightish. As for us, we finished well into the midnight hour. I tossed my bag to the side and collapsed on top of my stretcher. "At least we're not sleeping on the ground.." I said in a lowly voice. I looked over to Neji and saw him taking off some garments and taking his place beside Tenten. He stroked her hair before wrapping his arm around her waist and she instinctively moved closer to him.

I then turned my body to face the 'wall' and found myself thinking back on today's events.

The village is in complete shambles. I wonder which group raided this place and left it such ruins, more than once. There has to be some history... At some point, I might ask Yuta and Tasku-sama about the whole ordeal. That is if it isn't a sensitive topic to discuss.

Speaking, or rather thinking, of those kids, there were so much of them in the southern wing. Three kids packed into one tent with overworked and limited knowledge nurses..it looked like a nightmare. Right now, I can barely lift my wrist but just thinking about those doctors and nurses that have been doing this for months..

I let out a deep sigh.

Hopefully, with the collaborative effort of Konoha and the Hui village, we can make everything safer and livable and provide more resources.

Lastly, my mindsets upon those sick children in the northern wing. I've never seen anything like...but at the same time, something about it feels familiar? Maybe it's the symptoms? Maybe that could lead to us finding out what the cause or what this virus is. If I didn't know better, I would have thought they were dead because of how little they moved. Those poor kids... I'll have to study the children a bit more and see the notes from the doctors that's been treating them. I know that answer is there, we just have to read between the lines... When Lady Tsunade arrives next week, she'll probably have an idea.
