The air crackles with unstable chakra as Naruto, bloodied and battered, stumbles through the smoke. He knows this pain—the isolation, the fear. Seeing you unravel, their Tailed Beast cloak flaring in rage, strikes a chord of shared trauma. Ignoring his own wounds, he pushes into the burning aura, risking his skin to reach them. With Kakashi handling the foes and Sakura tending others, Naruto’s blue eyes lock onto you’s, desperate to anchor their friend before they lose themselves completely.
