Any feedback would be appreciated.
Sasuke walks out of the apartment building, his ears no longer ringing but still hard of hearing as blood leaks from both ears. Wakaba runs up to Sasuke in a cold sweat saying something but Sasuke can't make it out. "I can't hear you Wakaba, and you're talking too fast so I can't read your lips." Sasuke states, Wakaba then picks Sasuke up without hesitation and begins running towards Magnolia Forest.
"Put me down Wakaba, why are you carrying me!" Sasuke tried to struggle but his body wasn't responding and in turn as his adrenaline began to wear off he began to feel pain in his left arm. He then looks to his left arm and sees it all twisted and mangled with burns not even looking close to an arm. "What the fuck!" Sasuke shouts, "You're gonna be fine Sasuke just don't move, and you'll be fine." Wakaba tries to reassure.
"I've had worse, so don't sugar coat it." Sasuke says calmly. "Now isn't the time for jokes, we're almost to Porlyusica's place." Wakaba explains.
The two arrive at a tree with a door a the base of the trunk and a couple windows on each side of the tree. Wakaba knocks on the door and quickly backs away as an old pink haired woman with a broom barges through the door shouting, "Do you have any idea what time it is, it's the middle of the night!"
"Porlyusica I'm sorry to disturb you, but it's an emergency, Sasuke is hurt and-", "It's always something with you brats!" Porlyusica interrupts. She then notices the state of Sasuke's arm and her eyes widen. "Bring him inside quickly." She ushers and Wakaba does as he is told and enters the tree house. "Place him on the bed." Wakaba then carefully places Sasuke on the bed and moves out of the way.
"It's best that you go home brat this is going to take a while." Porlyusica states as she starts grabbing a potion from the cabinet. "I'd like to stay if I can." Wakaba says, Porlyusica places the potion on the table and grabs the broom from earlier and begins hitting Wakaba over the head. "Like hell you're staying here, you'll only be getting in the way. Besides, you look more stressed out than the patient himself!" She shouts, driving Wakaba out of the house and slamming the door behind him.
Porlyusica leans the broom against the wall and goes back to the table to grab the potion. She then adds a white powder to the potion and swishes it around before pouring it into a cup. She then hands the cup to Sasuke, "What is it?" Sasuke questions. "Drink it, it'll help." Porlyusica states, Sasuke looks at the cup for a moment before drinking the whole cup. "It's bitter…" He comments, "Good medicine is supposed to taste bitter besides, that's just to numb the pain and put you to sleep." Porlyusica says, and almost on cue Sasuke is hit with a sudden wall of drowsiness, and passes out.

2 days later:
Sasuke wakes up to an unfamiliar ceiling with the scent of herbs around him. His left arm is bandaged up and his body is stiff all over from laying in the same position for two days. He starts to sit up only to hear Porlyusica say, "I wouldn't do that if I were you." And upon hearing this the room began spinning. Sasuke lays back down and closes his eyes once again.
"What exactly happened? Last thing I remember is three people breaking into my house talking about something… and when I re-entered my house once they left an explosion happened." Sasuke says trying to get answers from the old woman. "Wait people were in your place? Do you know why?" Porlyusica asks. "One of them I think said they wanted to see some liars face but I don't know who that is." Sasuke states, opening his eyes to look at her. "But why do you want to know?"
"SO THOSE HUMANS STOP COMING HERE WANTING TO SEE YOU!!" She shouts. "Besides it'll give them something to do, while you rest up." She adds. "I'm sorry for the trouble they're causing you." Sasuke says.
"If you're truly sorry don't come back here needing me again." She states. " I'll try, and thank you."

3 days later:
Sasuke walks into the guild his arm still bandaged up but now in a sling. As he closes the door and turns around, he is greeted with wide eyes from everyone and silence. "What's with the stares?" Sasuke says in confusion, only to be greeted with a loud, "SASUKE!" From everyone in the guild.
"Okay I'm leaving." Sasuke turns around to leave as he grabs the doorhandle but Macao puts his hand on the door, preventing Sasuke from opening it. "Oh no you don't, you're not going anywhere." Macao states.
"And why's that?" Sasuke asks, "It's your first day back at the guild, and we've all been worried sick about you. Some more than others." Macao looks to two anxious kids sitting at a nearby table. Sasuke sighs, "Fine." Sasuke then heads over to the table with the two kids.
"So what's been going on since I've been gone?" Sasuke says. Cana gets up and goes around the table running up to Sasuke and holds out a card. "What's this?" He questions. "Umm, it's for you. It's from all of us here in the guild." Cana explains.
Sasuke grabs the card from her, and on the front it says get well soon, and just as she said, inside it has all the names of everyone in the guild on it including a key. "What's the key for?" Sasuke questions. "All the adults went on a bunch of jobs to buy you a house instead of you having to rent an apartment." Grey explains, Sasuke's eyes go wide in shock. He turns around to face the rest of the guild members and all of them have a big smile on their faces. "I can't accept something like this."
"Nonsense kid,you help out around the guild and go on a new job practically every week. Not to mention, you're also training Grey." Wakaba says. "I'm just doing my part, so please… I can't accept it." Sasuke says.
"Then why not think of it as an reward for surviving that explosion and getting better." Makarov suggests. Sasuke groans before saying, "Fine, on the condition you never do something like this again for me." Sasuke states. "I think we all can live with that." Makarov says with a smile.
"Well, I'll be going now, I have a meeting to attend to then I'll be seeing Yajima for a while, be back in 2 weeks." Makarov says as he then makes his way out the door.
"He does realize that he's going to have a mountain of paperwork to do when he comes back right?" Sasuke comments.
"Yup, even when he gets back he'll be in his office for a couple days at least." Grey states, Sasuke then turns to Grey and says, "So Grey, you haven't been neglecting to train now have you?"
Grey's face goes pale as he quickly stands up and runs out the door in a flash. "Well that answers my question. Once my arm is healed he's gonna have to learn to dodge next." An evil smile creeps up on Sasuke's face as he then sits at the table and starts talking with Cana.
