"We're taking the day off, the missions piled on top of us so fast so how about I treat all of you to some dangos and tea?" Kakashi said closing his book as he saw Naruto finally get there.

"Alright Kakashi sensei" Sakura and Naruto cheered, Sasuke gave his seal of approval by giving a firm nod. "Alright let's go!" Kakashi said as he started walking, the rest followed closely behind talking away.

They sat down and ordered some dongos. "These are amazing" Sakura said as she wiggled around.  "He says he wants to end it all when he's all alone in his room." everyone looked towards the entrance.

"That voice" Sasuke looked back. "How?!" Naruto growled and ran off, Sasuke chased after him following the voice. "The way he feels inside is too much for him" there was a huge crowed that surrounded a man in a cloak who kept his head down.

"When all you got are these four walls it's not that hard to feel so small
Or even exist at all
How come no one heard him when he said
Maybe i'm better of dead
If I was would it finally be enough to shut out all those voices in my head?
Maybe i'm better off dead
Better off dead! Did you hear a word, hear a word I said?" The cloaked man sang. Naruto tried to force his way through the crowed and Sasuke tried to do the same.

"This is not where I belong. You gonna miss me when I'm gone.
This is not where I belong. You gonna miss me when I'm gone.

He doesn't know he's worth it, because no one's ever told him so.
And the demons that he hides are all he knows.
And maybe he can fall in love with someone in his life that he could trust, and tell him he's enough." Naruto finally reached the front and made a move to punch the man but was pushed back.

"Gah!" Naruto was forcibly thrown. "Hinata?" Naruto looked up in disbelief. "If you think I wasn't on to you from the beginning you have another thing coming!" she yelled getting into a fighting stance.

"Tch, women" Naruto said turning and making a dash for it but was pinned to the ground by AMBU. As he was about to teleport Hinata jumped him and hit his neck knocking him out. "That's my girl!" clone Naruto yelled putting his hood down. Hinata turned slowly "W- wha!?" clone Naruto noticed what he said and went completely red as well. "That's not what I meant?! Uh.... Sasuke help" Naruto cried.

"We have to get going" Sasuke said, "My part is done" clone Naruto said and before anyone could react he disappeared with a puff sound the cloak falling to the ground. Sasuke picked it up "Let's go save Naruto" he said looking at Hinata. She gave a firm nod "I don't know what's happening but count us in" Sakura said.

"Then... the only way is to-" Sakura couldn't even finish the sentence. Tsunade looked down "I'm sorry" her voice almost cracked. Naruto stirred and started to struggle "Hold him down!" she ordered. He yelled he seemed to be in pain, his eyes started to shift in color like they did last time.

"Granny" he called Tsunade's head snapped up "Naruto?!" she yelled. "It's okay...  Do it... I won't... blame you" Naruto said trying to fight the mirrors  control. "No! I won't let you! I'll show them that I'm not worthless, that I'm not just 'that' kid but Naruto Uzumaki!" Naruto's hatred yelled.

Tsunade clenched her fists, "Get out,  we are starting the operation" Tsunade said through clenched teeth. "NO YOU CAN'T! YOU CAN'T DO THIS TO HIM!" Hinata yelled. "You think this is any easier for me?!" Tsunade looked up tears flowing hard from her eyes.

"Hinata... It'll be okay..." Naruto panted "Kakashi sense- ugh!  *pant* get them out" Kakashi clenched his teeth and started to push everyone. "Sasuke... I'm sorry there are gonna be no more little galaxies" Naruto let a tear flow. Sasuke turned back wide eyed it was like he was finally able to process what was about to happen. He started to push back "NARUTO!" he screamed tears started flowing hard.

Sakura did the same pushing and trying to get to Naruto. Hinata just stood there looking lifeless. Kakashi somehow managed to get them out. "Please forgive me Naruto" Tsunade's eyes were now bloodshot red as she began the operation that made her want to curl into a ball and cry until she couldn't cry anymore.
