Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hideki waved another goodbye, this time to her cousin. Afterwards, she continued on and, walked back into a room, retrieving her attentants. "Are we ready? I need to speak with Mikoto-chan."

Mastui nodded and stretched her arms as she stood up. "Rrready!" she yelled gladly. Wonder what she needs from the Uchiha . . . ?

Leiko only rolled her eyes and took her place next to Hideki as the Nara began walking.

He glided through the building, like the very specter of death itself, being seen by those close to dying, or the serious injured. Yet for the most part, he went unnoticed by all inside of the building.

Granted a few detected him, but he wasn't trying his best to not be discovered. After all he was dressed as an ANBU.

He explored the building from top to bottom, left his untraceable mark in the washing room, and began to study different medical scrolls and chemicals kept on hand at the hospital.

He was looking for information, on one particular chemical, and given where he was, he figured this would be the best place to discover an answer for his inquiry.

He slowly turned around, noting the seriousness of this ANBU who had come up behind him. It was the same uchiha as earlier. He was torn between testing her abilites and simply disappearing from the place, his business concluded, after all he had found what he had needed and then some.

So he did pretty much what she asked, he gave her a name and department, of the dead man he had killed and identy he had assumed. Then as if nothing at all was out of the ordinary he disappeared. Things were about to truly get interesting

((Sorry for the small post.))

He was placed on a strecther, along as his counsin and his aunt. Each wheeled some what in the same direction. For them they had gotten away with smoke filled lungs, though his aunt had a fallen beam land on her.

He on the other hand was rushed to the er. Anything propelled into you with enough explosive force to destroy a house, was something serious in deed. It was actually quite lucky he hadn't lost and eye or been killed.

However, losing a massive amount of blood and exerting yourself past a point of no return, put him quickly between the very edge of life and death.

In a daze he watched as people crowded around him, it was like trying to watch a dance floor with a strobe light. He was sure his face was wet, with tears or pesperation he wouldn't know, nor did he care.

His mouth was dry and he found it difficult to breath.

So is this what is like to die.

Twelve seconds before his heart began to go still he reflected back on the day's events which had seemed medicore enough.

nine seconds before his heart stilled, he remembered movement on the grounds.

Four seconds before his heart still he could remember the smell of the cigerette smoke that had seemed to drift through the air, however faintly.

Three seconds before his heart stilled, he began to lament about how his life had been seemingly in preperation for everything but this.

Two seconds before his heart still, death's icy grip began to wrap its cold slender fingers around his heart. He heard teh sound of a bell ringing and a trumpet sounding. t sounded like the opening act to something wonderful.

As his heart became something akin to a scared mouse trapped in the icy cage of death's fingers, he smiled and erupted into a massive coughing fit.

Darkness overtook him and he settled into peace. A small light seemed to appear before his eyes, and he started toward it. It steadly getting stronger as he approched it. Yet violently he was torn away from it, and only then could he see the light for what it was. As if he had been promised his one true love, he fought his way back from the abyss, his body going through a coughing fit as he forced air into his lungs.

Suddenly his eyes snapped open, and he founded himself, bandaged up and lying awake in a hospital bed. There was no on in his room yet he didn't let that bother him... much. Instead afraid to close his eyes, he stared up at the celing grateful yet determined to still be alive.

He blinked and watched people walk past his room. His all seeing eye didn't hide anything from his view, from the disturbing to the sick he saw it all.

He pulled himself up and off the bed. though rest would be needed, no one had given him informatation about a damn thing. Maybe his cousin had better insight than he.

He located her for the second time and using the wall as a brace slipped into her room.

"Are you alright?"

He visibly relaxed as he listened to her mootone, if she wasn't emotional about this then she seemed to be more or less her old self.

"I'll live, not much of problem there."

He noticed the sudden increase in her body, and quickly associated it with guilt. "Don't feel guilty, this was a one in a million chance."

He pushed away from the wall, and had a seat in a chair next to the bed.

"Besides I came specifically to cheer you up, your mother is still asleep, so I figured you wouldn't want to wake up to an empty room."

After sliding the door closed, Chiharu, Leiko, and Matsui walked into the room. It seemed all the injured Hyuuga had been placed here. One by one, the Hokage walked by check charts and examining the patients. Despite the fire, none of them had substained any burns, but it seems the excess smoke had done the trick. The wife of the head of the clan however, had manage to break an arm. It seems during the frenzy, a supporting beam to the house had fallen on her. Matsui attended to the woman while Leiko followed the Hokage.

As the Hyuuga slept, Matsui took a look at the chart at the bottom of her bed, skimming through it. She nodded, and placed two hands over her arm. As the shousen jutsu glowed, Matsui did her best to help the woman's arm. This would not only speed up the process tremendously, but relieve any pain.

Chiharu stopped and looked at an empty bed. Peering at the chart it seemed this person had substained to worst out of all the patients in the room. There was no way he could have made a recovery and been discharged. She looked around to the last bed. "Ahh." Walking over to the two Hyuuga, she looked toward the one in the seat, and motioned toward the bed. "I'm sorry if I'm interrupting anything, but you need to recieve further treatment. This won't take long, and you can talk to your cousin once I'm finished."
