What once was beating was still. She ran her fingers through his once gravity defying hair, which was now plastered to his forehead. She felt tears running down her face-or maybe it was the rain? She didn't care. His mismatched eyes looked up into her crystal blue eyes and the two knew it was goodbye.

He smiled softly, reaching upwards to stroke her unruly blonde tangle of hair.

"Save your strength, Scarecrow." She whispered, grabbing his hand and trying to force him down. "Sakura will heal you right up. If only she'd get here faster…" she whispered. But there was something that both knew. They were in war-Madara had destroyed everything. He won. And if Sakura wasn't back yet, then they knew where she was.

Dead.

"Kit, your mate needs you to be strong right now. Help him reach the other side painlessly."

'I know, Kyuu.'

Patting her lovers head reassuringly, she smiled down at him.

"See you on the other side." She whispered.

He smiled at her, his mask long since discarded. She bent down and kissed him gently on the forehead, and then the lips. The blood from his wound soaked her orange jumpsuit, but she didn't mind.

No, nothing mattered. She was as good as dead.

"See you on the other side, fishcake." He said with a small sigh, letting out his last breath. Closing her eyes, she placed his head on her lap and leaned against the ruined Hokage Tower. Her injuries catching up to her, she let out a raspy cough, spitting out blood.

"I love you, Kakashi."

Feeling her breathing slow, and her heartbeat weaken, she only wished that she could've saved all the innocent lives, and the lives of her friends. Unconsciously twisting her engagement ring around her ring finger she let a final tear slip through her closed eyes.

"Naru, I can give you a second chance."

Eyes snapping open she looked to the red tinted sky. She was ready to die, but she couldn't be selfish. She could save them. Kakashi, Sakura, Baa-chan, Ero-sennin. Even Sasuke.

'Seriously Kurama?'

"…Really Kit."
