Once he was out of that horrible cloak, she was able to look at him properly. He appeared to be in dire need of a medical ninja. It was amazing that he was even able to get up and walk around on his own. She allowed herself to relax a little, but activated her Byakugan, checking out his chakra flow. It was appalling low for someone his age and obvious skill level.

Should she talk to him about what was wrong with her? No, he was a stranger. It was highly improper. In fact, this was their first meeting. To speak about her feelings was difficult enough with Neji-nii-san and Naruto-kun. She couldn't even begin to imagine confiding in this man who wore an Akatsuki cloak and was the known killer of his entire clan; murdered by his younger brother even.

"Um, where I...come from... you are...not alive," she whispered. "It is...strange. A little."
