[obstinates]

Date & Time: 2/25, shortly after Kakashi's arrival
Location: Kakashi's room (304)
Characters: Uzumaki Naruto (obstinates) and Hatake Kakashi (ura_no_ura)
Summary: Injured Kakashi! Naruto rushes to the rescue! Revelations! Stay tuned!
Warnings: Blood? Language?

[Towels, gauze, antiseptic. The miniature first-aid kit Naruto and Kushina had put together looked a little bare after Naruto stuffed what he needed into a small sack that he slung over his shoulder. He wanted to be prepared for anything. Kakashi being injured was serious. Though Naruto wasn't a medic, it was still better than letting Kakashi go to the hospital here. Naruto still didn't trust the Initiative.

He taps his foot in a mixture of agitation and too much energy as he stares at the wall, mentally making a list of everything he had. When he's confident that he's ready, he shuts his eyes and concentrates. Just a few seconds later, the whole area lights up in his mind as he enters Sage Mode. He can see everything connected to nature, and it only takes a few moments to locate Kakashi's familiar chakra.

Guided by that ability, he rushes out the door. Kushina's not around, but he'll shoot her a text on his device saying: 'had to go out to help Kakashi-sensei'. There's no time to explain fully.

A couple of minutes later, he's knocking on the door.]

HEY! Kakashi-sensei, open up. It's me, y'know!

[ Itachi's here, too, Naruto says like there's nothing strange with that statement at all. (But then again, so is Kushina.) And with the knowledge of Edo Tensei... Kakashi can only wonder what state Itachi happens to be in. Judging from Naruto's general demeanor, it seems that he more or less trusts Itachi, so what apprehension or uncertainty Kakashi might have had is set aside in favor of Naruto's assessment.

Kakashi's not entirely sure when it happened, but he's discovered that he trusts Naruto's judgment unconditionally. Believes in him in a way he hasn't dared to believe in anyone in many years.

And he knows that if anyone can find a way out of this place, it would be Naruto.

He nods, setting aside Zabuza's sword. ]

I know you'll do what's right. And we'll find a way home.
