Day: 2
Characters: Antubis antsolute & Naruto two_inside_one
Summary: After taking their time, they're finally checking up on each other.
Status: Closed / Incomplete
Anubis wasn't really the type to ever be nervous, and, for the most part, he had handled this forced transition well. Even when it meant that he wasn't sure anymore that he could trust his own memory, that everybody had burned up before him, he had been able to handle everyone's return without much concern over what had really happened. Seeing John, hearing Link and the others was enough to make him not care about what he had seen, or thought he'd seen. Whether Edelweiss had never existed, or this place saved them all from death, it didn't really matter. This clinic was just another obstacle, and he was thankful for the safety of his allies and friends.
However, there was one that he couldn't just dismiss like the others. Naruto's death was still vivid in the god's mind, replaying whenever he closed his eyes, even though he told himself repeatedly that Naruto was alive and unharmed now, that everyone was, so there wasn't anything to feel guilty about.
Yet he still couldn't fully believe it... At least not until he saw the boy again, which, waiting until the second day of their incarceration here was ridiculous, and he'd wanted to see him immediately after hearing the boy's voice. What had stopped him though, was a feeling he rarely experienced or thought about, but he was frightened, worried that maybe...
Maybe Naruto wasn't really there, that the voice on the intercom only hid the charred burnt up remains of the ninja. That what Anubis had witnessed, had been powerless to stop, really was the reality of things, and Naruto wasn't there, or wasn't healed like everyone else.
It was a possibility in the god's mind, but he didn't... Couldn't wait any longer, and quickly made his way down the stairs to the first floor, walking down the hall towards the patients' quarters.
