dripping hands lifted, the man looking over the new seal made over the previous. He did the best he could, considering Kushina’s seal and adding his own improvisitions. It still had some questions of reliability, and he would be sure to ask Kushina and Jiraiya-sensei for another opinion if when they get back to the village. At the very least, it wouldn’t cause any trouble when they’d get to the village.
“I mastered sealing from a great Uzumaki and a legendary sanin, have a little faith in your sensei.”
The words came with a closed-eye smile and great reassurance as he carefully scooped her up, mindful to the shoulder wound. His face drops effortless as he refocuses, assessing their surrounding, playing out options in his head in just a split of the moment.
“Rin, I’ll take you back to the village through my Flying Thunder God Seal. Kakashi, I trust you’ll have no trouble returning on your own?” He looked over to the other jounin, double checking for injuries as he received a curt nod in response. He was shaken, Minato could tell that much. A little moment alone might be good for him. He returned the nod.
And just like that, they were at the Konoha hospital, the seal he’d placed there for just these instances flickering some. With no hesitation, Minato called for a medic, glancing back at Rin, looking for any sign that the seal failed.
“Do you feel any different?”
Different was one word for how she felt, but she wasn’t sure how to express it other than a profound rage. She’d come to realize that while her sensibilities had been wounded, her emotions were no longer entirely her own. For a moment all she could do was scowl at him, her sunny face contorted into something vile, wrathful and almost inhuman.
As the medic approached she did her best to push away from him. She wasn’t ungrateful, but she no longer wished to be held. There was no point in arguing, or pointing out how foolish Minato had been. It was done, and he wouldn’t listen to her before, she doubted he would now.
She decided not to answer him, instead she looked away, focusing on the medic. If he was so confident in his seal then he could judge it himself. She’d relate her opinions to the people who’d actually listen. Quietly she detailed what had happened to her, though no mention of Isobu passed her lips, the sheer mention of chidori sending a chill down the medic’s spine.
