A little like pushing against gravity itself. Against the weight of ten thousand red and black eyes, tomoe spinning into infinity, cast against the shadows of falling rocks. He would open his eyes and see it happening over and over again -- the sky coming down and Obito screaming his name. I'll become your eye and see the future for you, he said but he couldn't possibly have predicted or seen Rin's heart in Kakashi's hand and lightning going all through her chest and into her eyes as the life went right out of it.
And there in the distance was Obito screaming her name.
You're trash that can only talk, he said, and all Kakashi could feel was the crushing weight of killing intent.
(And a rock too heavy for him to move.)
Kakashi wakes with a sudden inhale, the blurry ceiling coming into slow focus beyond the dull throb in his eyes. He appears to be in some kind of clinic, which can only mean he somehow survived.
It takes a moment before he realizes there's a presence beside him, and he slowly turns to look at Sakura, who must've spent the entire night beside him. ]
