Forty-Sixth Sunshine [Video/Offline]

[Having seen some gravestones that she would rather not have seen, Hinata has been staying inside as much as possible. Unfortunately, she and Raven have animals to feed, and she's decided to brave the garden for a few minutes to cut some fresh leaves and branches for Xavier, Alice's bunny. It's just a moment, get out, cut branches with kunai, get back in. It should be alright.

Right?

Of course it's not. It takes maybe thirty seconds before the fog rolls around her and the hallucination starts.]

[OOC cut to spare your flist/TW : blood, gore and death]

There are bodies everywhere. All of them have the same long blue-black hair as Hinata and completely white eyes. Men, women and children, all dead, most of them mutilated in some horrific way. In fact, quite a lot of them have at least one eye or both gouged out.

... Hizashi-jisama? Otou-sama ? Okaa-sama ? ... N-Neji-niisan?

... H-Hanabi! Hanabi! W-Wake up! Hanabi! HANABI!

[Hinata falls to her knee, branches and kunai forgotten, the vision tearing a scream raw with pain from her chest.]

G-Gomen nasai ... Gomen nasai ... Gomen nasai ...

((OOC : Coming close to her will let you see the lovely vision that made her break down.))

[Never one to ignore a scream, Sokka feels fortunate that he's close enough to respond when he sees it's a familiar face in trouble. Granted, he wouldn't neglect to help anyone in a bind, but when it's someone he cares for, he's glad for the speed.]

Hinata! [He doesn't look around the fog yet, just skids to a halt, reaching a hand out to touch her shoulder.] It's okay, Hinata, it's okay! It's not real!

[She is crying incontrollably, seemingly senseless words falling from her lips.]

Kaeshite ... Hanabi wo kaeshite ... K-kazoku wo kaeshite!

[She hasn't noticed his presence, the soft touch not enough to break her from the transe.]

[Sokka tightens his grip, squeezing her shoulder with a little more force. Out of his periphery, he can see figures, lots of bodies, but he's got his focus so keenly placed on his friend, worried he might be too distracted to properly help out thanks to Hinata's visions.]

Hinata, stop! Just- just look at me, okay? I'm here, I'm right here. It's not real! Let me help you, please!

[The squeeze seems to anchor Hinata, her eyes coming into focus brutally again, and she blinks several times.]

... S-Sokka-kun?

[She is shivering violently, then suddenly paws at her own face, feeling for her own eyes.]

[He pulls her against him, wrapping his arms awkwardly around her, tugging her close in his worry and upset.] It's me, it's me...

[It's unsettling to see Hinata so disconnected, but when Sokka opens his eyes and looks on the visions created for his friend by the fog, he can understand why.] Spritis, we need-- we've gotta get you inside; gotta get out of this fog, o-okay?

Sokka-kun ... What's ...

[She instinctively grabs him, holding onto him like he's the only real thing around ... and in a way, he is.]

C-Can you ... see them?

Yes. [Although, he wishes he wasn't seeing them. They all remind him so much of her, he worries the second he pulls back, he'll come to realize Hinata is just as dead as the rest of them. Sokka's grip tightens and he brushes a hand down her hair.] But it's not real, Hinata. It's not real. It's just-- it's the Animus being cruel...

T-They took their eyes ... A-All of them ... Otou-sama ... Okaa-sama ... Hanabi ...

[She's not going to move on her own if you don't forcibly move her back inside, Sokka.]

[He's not really able to move, yet, but he's starting to get that picture, yeah. Sokka squeezes her and chokes out a response as he tries to coax them both to their feet.] It's not real, it's not... You just- just close your-- [Wait, no, probably shouldn't mention the eyes in this case.] Just bury your face against me, okay? It'll help... [He hopes.]

[She stumbles upward, holding his shirt in a vice grip. She probably wouldn't be able to stand if not for the fact that she's now leaning on him rather heavily. It still takes her a long moment before she manages to tear her eyes away from the scene displayed around them.]

W-Why do they do this ...? Why? ... M-My family ...

[Sokka swallows against his grief for her, finding it hard to hear the hurt in her voice.] I don't know... [He wishes he did. It's cruel of the Animus to be so terrible without any explanation. Did they really think this treatment was acceptable?] Let's go inside, come on.

[She'll follow, her body wracked by violent shivers every once in a while. The tears are still falling down her cheek, but the sobs are getting smaller, mostly because she's exhausted.]

[As soon as Sokka finds a place for them to sit together, he lowers them both down but doesn't relieve himself of his grip on the girl.] Just sit here, okay? We'll sit here and relax a minute... Just gotta calm down a little and it'll be okay.

[Hinata nods. She won't try to get out of the hug, she needs the warmth and support right now.]

I'm going to stay here a while, okay? Just stay here with you as long as you need me. [Even if that meant all day and all night and all day again.]

Thank you...

[It's probably not going to take that long, but she appreciates it nonetheless.]

You're welcome. Do you want some water? Something to drink? [He likes to help. It makes him feel useful.]

J-Just ... stay here? P-Please.

I will. As long as you need me. [In the meantime, he'll just be here rubbing at Hinata's back, interested in making her as comfortable as possible.]

Thanks.

[She'll focus on taking deep breaths right now, and redirecting her chakra. She's not a medi-nin, but that should help her settle down a little.]

[Sokka will... try not to talk. He's a bit of a gabber when he wants to be, and meditation never really sat too right with him. Still, it seems like it isn't hurting, so he just continues with what he's doing until the time she requests him to stop or leave.]

[Stay long enough and she'll just fall asleep on his shoulder. The vision took a lot out of her.]

[Sokka won't mind that -- he really has no where else he has to be. And in a way, it's helping him too, since he's been a little starved for contact of late.]

Hinata. [No, please. Not you as well.]

[Without thinking about whether or not she might be affected by Hinata's visions, Raven phased through her room's wall and into the garden where Hinata's kneeling on the ground. She flies to her and seizes her shoulders, trying to make her teammate look up at her.]

Hinata... Can you hear me? You've got to get inside. Now.

[Hinata's eye are staring at the vision around, the words falling from her lips between sobs.]

Okaa-sama wo kaeshite ... onegai ... kazoku wo ... kaeshite ...

[Raven's not good enough at Japanese yet to understand what Hinata says. Yet she gets the words "mother" and "please". She tries to pull her housemate back onto her feet and close to her. She's starting to notice the gory scenery around them. They can't stay here.]

Hinata... Please... Snap out of it.

[Hinata holds out a hand towards one of the figures on the ground. A young man, maybe a year older than her, his hair loose around his face, but held back with a Konoha headband.

Both of his eyes have been gouged out and are nowhere to be seen.]

N-Neji ... nii-san ... G-gomen nasai ... Gomen nasai ...

It's not your fault, Hinata. None of it is real.

[Raven pulls Hinata closer into her embrace, mostly to prevent her from watching the scenery around them.]

Can you stand?

[Harry walks into traps willingly when someone he cares about is in danger, thus it should be no shock that Hinata's scream brings him running.

Of course, he doesn't understand what she's saying, but seeing the vision she's been given offers enough of a translation.]

Hinata. [He reaches out to touch her. It's not real!

[Hinata hands are convulsing, her eyes open wide and staring in horro at the scene in front of her, words escaping her inbetween choking sobs that seem to steal her breath.]

N-neji ...n-ni-san ... H-Hana...b-bi...

... Hanabi wo kaeshite!

[He touches her face, trying to guide her from looking at it.]

Don't look at it, Hinata. It's not real. It's just the Animus.

[She finally appears to see him, and blinks through her tears. She tries to speak, several times, only to be choked by a sob when she opens her mouth.]

H-Harry ... k-kun ...

Yeah, it's me. Let's go away from this place, Hinata. It's bad out here.

T-Their eyes ... They t-took ... their eyes ...

[You're going to have to help her up, Harry. She can't do it on her own.]

Come on. [He puts an arm around her and lifts her up, keeping her braced in case she can't stand on her own.]

[Her legs are not doing a very good job of supporting her, but Harry's warmth and presence do seem to make her snap out of it if only a little.]

I-I'm ... going to be sick ...

Try to hold it down for a minute. [He's going to attempt to mostly carry her away from the vision before she starts getting sick. Although, if she starts acting like it's not just 'going to be' and it's more 'being', he'll help her down and hold her hair back.]

[She nods bravely, but she's heaving already.]

I-I'm sorry, I-I ...

[He helps her down, quickly, when she starts and pulls her hair back.]

No, don't be sorry. [He rubs her back with one hand.] You didn't do anything wrong.

[She doesn't have much in her stomach, which makes vomiting a bit more painful, but also quicker to get over with.

She scrunches her nose at the smell. That, at least is real enough even if it's not pleasant.]

C-Can we get inside?

'course. D'you think you can walk? I can carry you.

I-It's okay now ... I think.

[And indeed, it's easier for her to stand up. She's not very steady on her legs, but she's not going to fall down again.]

O-Oh ... I need ... food for the bunny.

[He's still keeping an arm around her, in case she does fall.]

We'll get you inside first. I can go and get some.

T-Thank you.

[She'll follow now. Because she wants to get away, and she's not sure she can get that vision out of her head anytime soon.]

[He gets her safely inside. He knows visions like that are not fund things. At all.]

Do you want me to sit with you a while? Make you some tea, maybe?

I-I ...

[She's about to refuse, because she hates to impose, and she's makign a spectacle of herself alreday, but with Naruto gone, she needs more support than she thought she did.]

If you don't mind ...

'course I don't mind. We're friends.

Thank you.
