The One That Survived [Naruto Fanfic] Chapter 28

~Chapter 28~

-Kakashi’s POV-

Hokori….how was Hokori of all people injured this bad?! I thought, pacing around the waiting room in the hospital.

After she had left, the mission had been deemed as a failure. We had to retreat, seeing as Tsume had been hit with a jutsu from the ex-Waterfall ninja. Guy had been injected with a deadly poison from the puppet-using man. I had made it out with most burn marks from Deidara’s constantly use of explosives.

But now, Guy and Tsume were quickly recovering, I had been treated with burn salve and Hokori was still in the ER. Chi was sitting beside me, constantly growling under his breath while his eyes were fixated in a glare towards the doors. He was waiting – expecting for a doctor to come out.

We waited for hours and I finally had to sit in one of the waiting chairs, too nervous to even read Make-Out Paradise. Eventually Naruto and Sakura came bursting through the doors and I blinked in slight surprise, having expected Naruto to already be on his journey with Jiraiya-sama by this point.

“Kakashi-sensei! How’s Hokori-sensei?!” They both shouted, rushing to my side. Sakura was hugging Chi while they both looked at me, awaiting my answer.

I sighed, rubbing a hand down my face tiredly. “She’s still in the ER. They haven’t told me anything yet.”

“What happened anyway?! Hokori-sensei hasn’t been injured since the Land of Waves, believe it!”

“She was battling….and the fucker’s scythe rammed into her side. She quickly removed it, so I didn’t think the wound was that bad….but then she collapsed in a pool of her own blood.” Chi answered, his ears flopping back against his head with a whine at the end. Sakura gasped along with Naruto and they both hugged the large canine.

Suddenly the doors to the hallway opened, revealing Hana Inuzuka, the daughter of Tsume if I remembered correctly.

“Chi!”

Chi’s head snapped up and he switched his gaze to the young Inuzuka, ears perking.

“It’s Yuki! Her pups are coming!”

Chi’s eyes widened and he looked towards the Inuzuka and then towards the ER, a torn look appearing in his eyes. Finally he stumbled out an answer, looking over at the girl in confusion. “But….I thought they weren’t expected for a week!”

“They’re coming earlier than expected. What are you even doing in her anyway?”

“Hokori’s been injured.” I informed the girl solemnly. Her eyes darkened, flashing in surprise before she also looked towards the door of the ER.

“I see….mom told me everyone had been injured during their mission. Kuromaru’s currently suffering from all four of his legs being broken. I didn’t know one of you six had been critically wounded, however.”

“T-tell Yuki….” Chi trailed off before sighing and closing his eyes. After a moment he opened them, gray eyes blazing with loyalty. “Tell her I’m sorry but Hokori comes first. If it wasn’t for her I’d of died of starvation trapped in a fence when I was a puppy. I’ve been ignoring her lately, always spending time with Yuki over her, always disappearing. This time I’m not leaving.”

Hana’s eyes softened and she nodded, turning back to go into the hallway. “I understand. Come to the clinic when Hokori recovers.”

Chi nodded, head swiveling back towards the ER doors as he watched, as he waited. Naruto and Sakura were watching him in shock, however and I too was surprised.

“You’re having puppies?”

“I always thought you were bullshitting us when you didn’t deny having a girlfriend, believe it!”

“She’s my mate, brat.” Chi snarled. Both the Genin smirked at the canine before we all turned our heads to the ER as the doors slammed open.

“Tsunade-sama.” I stated, looking at her in expectation.

She glanced over the four of us, pulling off her blood-covered surgical gloves.

“Hokori’s pulling through.”

We all let out a breath of relief. I felt a weight being lifted from my shoulders as I rubbed a hand against the back of my neck.

“The Hinome clan’s kekkei genkai is certainly impressive. It’s causing a rapid regeneration of her skin and all blood that’s been lost. She should be conscious by morning. Luckily the wound avoided all of her organs along with her uterus.”

“Uterus?” Naruto asked in confusion.

Tsunade blinked, surprise flitting across her features at all of our confused looks. “You don’t know? Hokori’s ten weeks pregnant. Then again, I don’t even think she knew, considering the fact she’s gained no weight whatsoever.”

My eyes widened drastically, along with Chi’s, Naruto’s and Sakura’s.

“P-pregnant?” I stammered. Tsunade smiled, a sadistic gleam in her eye at my shock.

“Congratulations, Kakashi. You’re going to be a daddy.”

Authors Note

Hehe….I told you all of you would be pissed at the ending. And yes, this IS the ending. I am not gonna write a sequel. You’re all welcome to imagine what happens to the child with the upcoming war and such in Shippuden.
Alas, I’m tearing up at the ending of this book. It’s become my baby and I will truly miss Hokori and her drunken, smoking badassness. Look forward to the new chapter of DOTRS whenever I write it and a new story I’m fixing to publish called Shiro. Yeah, it’s also a Naruto fanfic.
Anyway, if you wish you may PM me or comment or whatever and rant about how I should be writing at least an epilogue or something and not to just leave the reader (who is you all) hanging with this shitty, cliffhanging ending.
I’ll probably answer (maybe. Eventually) and I’ll enjoy reading all the ways you plan to kill me ^^
Goodbye to you all~
Forever and always, peace!
~Mew
P.S. I’ll go cry in my corner now, seeing as my baby is finished. Goodbye The One That Survived, I’ll miss saying that I’ve updated you! (Which I barely did on a frequent measure but we’ll ignore that)
