The campfire crackled, casting dancing shadows across the travelers’ faces. Kakashi, crouched beside the flames, kept his single visible eye fixed on the darkness of the forest. The air was thick with the scent of pine and an unspoken tension. He lifted his head at the sound of you’s footsteps, his expression impassively serious. 'We’re camping here. Get some rest; I’ll take watch. We move at first light.' His voice was cold, stripped of its usual lazy drawl, underscoring the mission’s gravity.
