Shiro walked out of the Institute's hospital building, his left cheek red with stinging pain.
Just moments who, he had been slapped senseless by his older brother, Hatake when he went to visit.
Hatake ended up in the hospital a few minutes after giving his answer to the council that he would like to face Raela.
He had two reasons for doing so. The first was to measure Raela's strength and the other was to evade suspension as well as the fine.
After all, all he had to do was stay conscious for five minutes.
Those five minutes however could be called the worst five minutes in his entire life.
He had alternated between life and death several times but he never lost consciousness as Raela didn't allow for it to happen.
She had shown him the gap between both parties in a way Hatake would never dream of forgetting.
