Protecting what is Precious

I damaged myself in a vital organ. I really stabbed my stomach and caused internal bleeding. Suki managed to mend it and stop my bleeding, but I was still weak from that bastard dipping into my chakra reserves. I didn't get it. I caused her and Hachi so much pain, yet they were still helping me. Hachi refused to be healed until I was healed. Why help someone like me?

Once Suki healed me, I sat up and she gave me a hug. I had a sad look on my face, but was surprised. "I don't get it..."

"Love is love and nothing will change that. You are the first boy that makes my heart feel whole," she answered.

She let go and I looked down. They were incouraging words, but I've screwed up so much that... What's this chakra? It's familiar...

I looked around and got up. I struggled, but I did get up. "Nee-chan..."

I thought I heard Suki call me, but I teleported to where my sister's chakra was. And I saw her... She was hurt... She was bleeding... No... I walked towards her. I needed to right the wrong that I had caused. So much pain... So much sorrow... I walked to her and gave her a light hug. I used the remainder of my chakra to heal her wounds. "I'm sorry... for everything nee-chan..."

"Please don't apologize oni-san."

I had to sit down. Most of my chakra was gone, but I didn't regret what I just did. I did what I wanted... I protected one of the most precious things in my life. I was tired, but I was okay. Hachi, Suki, and the others came to where I was. I stood up, but I was struggling still.

My friends tried assisting me, but I was okay. I was fine. I just needed rest...
