Out of all the girls present, Tenten had the least amount of medical knowledge. Sure, she knew how to apply first-aid and understood the usage of different drugs, but she didn't have the training from a legendary Senin or the funds of a wealthy family.

And yet Tenten could tell that Ino suffered from a complete lack of sleep. Yawning every few seconds, discolored bags under the eyes, she moved and talked slower, had a delayed reaction time, and the fact she did mention within a yawn she didn't much sleep last night. Going by her appearance, Ino hadn't slept in several days. But Sakura mentioned she saw Ino yesterday and she looked relatively fine, if tired and abstent-minded. Last night must nearly killed her.

"I'mma fine." Ino mumbled her words when Hinata asked. "Justa lost summa hours of mmgeh-sleep." Ino lowered her head onto the metal mall table and closed her eyes. The girls let her rest for a bit before Sakura gently poked her elbow into Ino's shoulder. Ino weakily groaned and looked up. "Yeah, missed something?"

"Ino." Sakura blankly stated. "You going to tell us what happened last night or…"

"Okay, I'mma okay." Ino repeated. "Just go have fun without me for a bit…give me a sec…" She once more lowered her head down and closed her eyes. "Don't mind me."

Tenten almost felt like getting up and putting Ino into a sleeper hold so the blonde could get some sleep. She didn't need to be up and about; she needed to be in bed and resting. Ino could have just postponed the get-together for later in the evening. It would have made more sense for all of them. Sakura and Tenten would be off work, and Hinata could take the evening off after helping with her family. A short three hour nap would have saved Ino from becoming a zombie.

"Hey, Sakura?" Hinata spoke up. "I'm going to go get our order at the, uh, place. Could you help me?" Sakura nodded and followed Hinata over to the little burger shack. Once they were out of earshot, Hinata asked, "Do you think we should try to heal Ino? I fear she might harm herself if she was allowed to continue any further."

"It's not just she's sleep-deprived." Sakura started as she bowed to the server as he delivered the four baskets to them. "I haven't spent that much time with her recently…and really?" Sakura cleared her throat as she took two baskets. A big and meaty for her, and the usual arrangement burger for Ino. "Going by her appearance, I say the problem isn't a lack of sleep, but the desire to not go to sleep."

"In just one night?" Hinata wondered as she grabbed her veggie burger, and a plan and dry for Tenten. "Must have been a hellish nightmare."

"Hinata." Sakura stopped suddenly and turned to her friend. "After we drop these burgers off, can we go…somewhere private? To talk about Ino? We'll tell Tenten later, but I prefer if someone staid with Ino." Hinata caught on and nodded. "Just say we needed to freshen up." Sakura added as they continued walking. "Here you go!" She chirped as she shoved Ino's basket into her face, prompting the sleepy blonde to get up and notice the hot meal. "Be right back." Sakura then patted Tenten on the back. "Make sure she doesn't go anywhere, okay?" Tenten understood and slowly munched away at her burger while keeping her eyes trained on Ino, who started to nibble at her meal.

Once the two were away from the others, Sakura whispered to Hinata, "Ino is suffering through depression."

"Ah." Hinata replied sullenly. "I'm guessing it has to do with the war?" Sakura nodded. "Are you worried she might…?"

"Me and Tsunade share the same concerns." Sakura filled in. "While this isn't the best condition she could be in, her lack of energy will at least prevent her from…doing it." Sakura really didn't want to say it so she continued to something she could talk about. "Like you said, she must have a hellish nightmare last night. One enough to completely prevent her from getting any sleep…" Sakura trailed off as she recalled a very powerful memory.

She gotten back from pounding Kaguya into the ground, keeping the goddess busy long enough for Naruto to recover and finish her off for good. Sakura felt half dead and wanted to go and lie down before doing anything else. On the way to a tent where she would crash for the night, she passed by Ino. Her eyes were wide and blank, and she shivered like she fell into a pond in the winter. Sakura could only muster a simple greeting before she nearly collapsed over into the tent and fell asleep onto the dirt floor. When she woke up after hearing about Sasuke and Naruto's fight and how they blew off the other's arm, she nearly forgot about how utterly scared Ino looked.

"Something…happened to her at the camp." Sakura concluded. "Bringing it up to her will only make things worse…and it's not like it is all that tough of a problem to solve. The camps were overstuffed with causalities of war, soldiers and civilians alike. And Ino was working as a medical officer at the camps. She probably seen a great deal of people dying around her and she couldn't do anything to save them."

"PTSD." Hinata summed up. Sakura nodded. "Combined that with her father's death…and poor Ino." Sakura again nodded.

"Lady Tsunade said she's having a session with Ino tomorrow, so maybe we can see some improvement in her." Sakura breathed out as she leaned against the wall. "I wish there was someway I could help her…but I'm not versed enough in psychology to try and do anything without doing anything drastic. The best I, and we, can do for now is to keep her busy and comfortable."

"Limit her caffeine intake?" Hinata asked.

"Uh-huh."

"Keep her away from sharp object?"

"Yep."

"Make sure she doesn't drool on everything?"

"…not really a major concern, but we still should make sure we don't have to pay for any damages."

"Just keep Ino going." Hinata then wondered, "How will she be able to get any sleep tonight? Her body won't be capable of taking any more abuse."

Sakura considered her options before replying. "I guess general medication will work. We just got to make sure she takes it when she's goes to bed…later tonight. Seven thirty." Hinata nodded, adding a mental note. "Let's get back before our meals get cold."

As Hinata and Sakura returned to their seats, Sakura felt so guilty that she really couldn't do anything for her friend. Ino looked so down and beaten….and Sakura didn't know where to start with the treatment. While she had received extensive training from the last remaining legendary Sanin, her actual practical hands-on experience was greatly lacking. Within a year's time, she would be able to handle this.

But for now, it was up to Tsunade.
