[seeing_only_red]

[Itachi is trying to get to his feet, somehow managing to avoid the glass littered around him, but his too weak to stand on his own. His body is exhausted and his face is covered with dried blood. He feels around and finds a solid object at his side. His Hitomi. He grabs it, holding tightly in his fist, but doesn't realize it's on, and by touching it, he's called the first person the his fingers touch on his contact list.]

Wh... Why... [Heavy, uneven breathing. His teeth are clenched. He's in pain, but trying to ignore it in favor of getting to his feet. He falls again. Doesn't bother trying to get back up.]

Why...didn't...it work...?
