"Seiichi you can't go with me." I stated ruffling his hair as I trailed behind my teammates.

"But I wanna see you off!"

"You should be home with Yoshi and Kiyoko." It was amusing to me how much Seiichi looked up to me, it was like he really was my little brother. Yoshi was a bit cold and seemed to only care for Kiyoko, so I never got to speak with either one much despite them living in my home.

"Oh c'mon!!" I sighed petting Sasayaki, who grumbled in her sleep from around my neck.

"Seiichi this is no place for children."

"You're not that much older!!" I didn't reply this time, only sent a small smile and let him tag along. Sakura was walking a little bit ahead, but her pace was getting slower as time dragged on, little as it was. Grimacing I set my hand on her shoulder causing her to look at me.

"You've got this, Sakura." I gave a false smile hoping to encourage her and she nodded thankfully, but still seemed to be drowning in self doubt. She was going to drag us down like this. As we climbed the stairs, Seiichi somehow vanished into thin air, but I shrugged it off thinking Iruka caught him for not studying again. There was a commotion over by the doors that seemed to be the ones we were supposed to go through, although this was only the second floor. A small yawn escaped me as I watched this.. boy in a green jumpsuit suddenly ask Sakura to be his girlfriend. I studied him and his teammates well. TenTen, Neji, and Lee. All familiar once I got a good look at them, but I showed no interest and began walking up the stairs knowing my teammates would follow soon.
