As the echoes of battle faded into the distance, Kakashi's focus shifted to a different kind of battlefield, one where the weapons were not jutsu and chakra, but care and healing. With a sense of purpose and determination, he called upon his knowledge of medical ninjutsu, a skill honed through years of training and experience, to tend to Crystal's wounds and replenish her depleted chakra. With steady hands and a heart heavy with concern, Kakashi worked to heal Crystal, his every movement a testament to his skill and devotion. The gentle glow of his chakra enveloped her, a soothing balm against the pain and exhaustion that threatened to overwhelm her.
As Crystal's injuries began to mend and her strength slowly returned, Kakashi's gaze softened, a sense of relief washing over him. The sight of her resting form, her features softened in repose, stirred a sense of protectiveness within him, a desire to shield her from harm and keep her safe. With a tenderness born of love and care, Kakashi lifted Crystal in his arms, her form light against his chest, her presence a comforting weight against the uncertainties that lingered in the air. In a gesture both protective and intimate, he cradled her in a bridal style carry, a silent promise to stand by her side and see her through the trials that lay ahead. Bringing her to his home, Kakashi laid Crystal down in a place of safety and comfort, a sanctuary amidst the chaos of the world outside. With a watchful eye and a heart full of concern, he remained by her side, a silent guardian in the night, his presence a beacon of reassurance in the darkness.
