How things change
I have just looked back on my last entry in this journal. How outdated it is! It is so many days old, and it must look awkward to have kept up on it so well and then let this great time pass between entries. But I suppose it can't be helped. This is the shinobi lifestyle, as so many are apt to say.
Needless to say, many things have transpired since my last entry. Gaisensei, you hardly know the half of it, I think, and I find it strange and almost disrespectful that I seem to only speak of some things here, instead of to you directly. But I will set aside time for when we are both home to talk to you. The great team that you've built through Tenten, Nejisan and I needs your help. At least, I need your guidance.
Yes, I have been having many personal problems since I've returned. Problems with my team that are of a different variety than I am normally used to... And there is also the most recent development that has left Nejisan in the hospital, unconscious. Uchiha Sasuke, the genius I wanted so badly to fight only a few years ago, has been put by Nejisan into the same hospital. Both of them have been out for several days now, but I've only visited Nejisan. I only care to visit Nejisan. There is an ANBU guard (at least one that is visible) assigned to the door, alone, of Sasuke's room.
Why he ever returned, or thought he could even visit, is beyond me. When his name appears in my head, I only become angry. He has no right to return. For Narutokun's sake, I struggle to understand. For Sakurasan, I only feel a disturbing rage. Her role in things has still yet to be determined, or if it has, the reports of it have not been released to those of my status.
I feel in the dark. I feel confused. And yet focused at the same time. I feel a strange quiet, like something before a crack of thunder.
I prepare myself.
