[ The first thing Sasuke managed to do when he found his feet again was to drag himself to the nearest place that looked even remotely familiar. That happened to be the forest, which looked so comforting to him with its dark tree-trunks and swaying leaves. It had taken much of his energy just to make it that far, fair kimono dotted with blood and his right arm cradled against his chest.

It took the rest of his energy to escape from the very place he had fought so hard to get. Never had he met animals such as those in his life, ones that turned on him with blank eyes and attacked him with no provocation.

The small man collapsed on the edge of the wood, sinking into an exhausted pile of silk and limbs. ]

Do so we will.

[ That Sasuke says firmly, his gaze steadying. Nothing was more important than returning to Yukimura's side. ]

[And Rokuro nods, just as firmly. But there isn't much to be said to that. They will recover their strength, and then they will find a way to escape. That is what is most important.]

[ Though, for right now... is it all right if he slumps over against the pile of pillows?

As that is what he is going to do. ]
