im sitting at a table in the mess hall with my squad, its breakfast and i decide to eat something for the first time in nearly a week, but my body not having food is adjusted to that and i vomit shortly after. i leave the bathroom after puking and spot jeiku and fuya
"hey ibuki we need to talk to you"
"uh yeah whats up?" jeiku sounded serious
"its just that did you notice yori said theres only 66 troops when we were told 67?" my heart plummets, he noticed as well "with kazuya supposedly missing and then that it makes me suspicious"
"i noticed yori said that but i assumed i had heard wrong"
"so did i until i asked fuya"
"we should just play along for now, theres no guarantee that yori is behind this"
im now at the training grounds with my squad, hayashi and moritomo are sparring and ito and i are watching.
"did you notice that the squads are positioned around the village? like surrounding it" ito is originally from the sand village, i dont know much about him.
"yeah but we were told its because we're surrounding the enemy, not letting them even leave the village" i noticed exactly what hes talking about, why would we surround the entire village when we're just after some of them?
"we dont even know who our enemies are right, yori has only told us that shadow is controlling the village." hes right, we dont know exactly who we're supposed to be targeting
"we'll know when shadow starts fighting back"
"i guess" he doesn't sound convinced and neither am i.
we're back at the mess hall, its dinner time.
"everyone make sure to eat up, we have a big day tomorrow and i dont want anyone fighting on an empty stomach" i eat a few bites of toast and stop, i dont want to throw it up again, moritomo has basically appointed himself as leader of the squad and im fine with that because obeying orders is easier than making them. i just wish he wouldnt order me to eat, im not a baby.
im laying in bed, staring at the ceiling, with any luck this will be the last time i have to look at this ceiling, me, jeiku, fuya, and kazuya if we can find him should be headed back to the leaf village soon.
