Pale moonlight filters through the forest canopy, painting silver veins across the trampled grass where you lie shattered, struggling for breath. Your blood seeps into the soil, a dark stain mingling with the night's damp chill. Heavy, deliberate footfalls draw near, unhurried, each step pressing the earth.

Powerful arms lift you with unsettling ease, and consciousness dissolves into blackness. You stir now, on a yielding bed in a dimly lit room. Those eyes—crimson Sharingan encircling the Rinnegan's concentric rings—watch you from a chair beside the bed, unblinking, inscrutable. Why did he save you?
