Afterlife

For a fortune he'd quit

But it's hard to admit

How it ends and begins

Oh his face is a map of the world….

From yesterday it calls him

But he doesn't want to read the message Here

If there was ever…..something…..worth….fighting for….in my life….

My life is it…..

this is it.

.Blackness.

She is it. She. Her. Face…..see it….Got…to…

I….

.Blackness.

It hurts. God, it hurts. Oh God. It Hurts. God?

She….It….hurts…She…..Her….

This is it…………..No…..I…..I…NEED…

.Blackness.

To open my eyes.

"Kakashi?"

She's looming above me here. In this…grave…no…bed? Bed. White stuff…ahh…sterile bedding. White floor. IV hook-ups. I hate hospitals.

She's holding my hand tight in her own. She has a large round belly. She has gold eyes….Gold? That's not right is it?

"Kurenai?"

"….No…."

"Where's Kurenai?"
