I know I'm supposed to hold on for their sake. I know I'm supposed to be strong, because I promised myself I'd never be left behind again. But this...this is like swimming against the current. And it hurts. It hurts to see Sasuke turn his back on us. I should've expected it...nothing stays the same...once you get out of this place, time starts again for you, and you take the same decisions, over and over...I guess I was expecting too much when I had hoped he'd remember the promises he'd made us when he was here. To not pursue his brother--no, that would've meant not following his...dream. And we all need to do that. Don't we?
And Naruto...I'm so happy Naruto's here, but I can see it in his eyes too. Everytime we talk about Sasuke, there's a veil of uncertainty over us. Where do we go from here? Do we stand a chance? Is he still Sasuke, or has he changed that much?
If he actually remembers things from his stay here, then I almost feel sick at the way he choses to disregard them.
No. Stop. That's enough. We can do it. We can bring our team together again. I'm not giving up. No matter how hard it is, no matter how it hurts...I'll fight on. I'll never give up. Seeing them smile together again will be worth it, in the end.
I don't care about what Ino or people like Greed might say. I've a bigger goal. I can't waste my time having a social life when I have a team to bring back together.

Doctor Ishida, I'm ready to start working again. I think the stitches--it's probably better if you take them out, of course. I'm not familiar with the proceedure yet, but...right. I think the wound's completely healed by now, so-- when do I start again?
The shoes are off. I believe I promised two people a spar? Ty Lee-san? Sanya-san?
