It has been over two months since Sakura has appeared here and she seems to be doing okay. My brother has her working at the hospital several days a week to keep her busy and she trains the rest of the time. Both Hashirama and I are both looking into ways, figuring out, how to get her back to her own time. I just do not think that it is going to be possible. Time-space ninjutsu is not very well known so there are very few scrolls on the subject matter.
"Brother…"
Hashirama looks up from the scrolls and paperwork he was sorking on, "What is it Tobirama?"
"I can't find anything on how to send Sakura home. I believe that she is stuck here." I shake my head slightly and I turn to look out the window.
My brother sighs, " I believe that you're right. We have found nothing. All of the information that we would need to send her back, I have a feeling is in her own time."
I just nod. My gaze locks onto a head of pink hair as it makes its way through the streets toward the training grounds. Hmm. I do not listen to anything else my older brother is saying as I teleport out to the training fields. I make myself comfortable up in a tree as I watch Sakura warm up before starting her more rigorous training. She begins.
I watch in admiration as she goes on to deliver punches to boulders and trees that demolish them. I have never seen so much power from a person who seems so fragile. My gaze continues to track her movements across the field. Fluid movements that have no hesitation.
"You can come out now Lord Tobirama."
My eyes widen in surprise as I jump down from my hiding spot. Sakura is standing at the base of the tree waiting for me.
I school my expression, "Sakura."
"Is there something that I can do for you sir?"
"Sakura….."
Something in my tone must have alerted her as to what I was going to say. Her expression breaks down and she begins to cry.
"I'm not able to go back, am I? What am I going to do? All of my friends and family are there. What are they going to think? Do they know what happened to me?"
Sakura is asking all of these questions while trying to calm her crying, but is unsuccessful.
I do not question my actions. I pull Sakura into my arms and hold her while she cries. Why? Why, when I am not one to show any type of emotion, do I pull one small woman into my arms t comfort her? Why does seeing her cry cause my heart to hurt?
