Savior
I lag behind the other. The ache in my side is intensifying. I tear off the clothes, unsurprised; the howling spiral of wind is consuming my hand.
The Hokage protects the future; he is the savior who will deliver us to the pure land.
I wonder if that is what my mother though as she was dying, and whispered out his name.
Not I, mother. My time ends here.
They are racing towards me, too late. I watch them as I fall. The sky implodes in my sight and darkness overcomes me.
You were my saviors, my friends, my beloved, not I.
