The room was silent for a long while, even the infact was quiet, any sound felt unfitting for the environment.
The wind blew and with a sharp cut of the air the other figure in the room was gone.
"*exhale*...what am i going to do with,hm?"
The woman questioned her eyes on the infant.
~Is she talking to me?~
"You really do look like Takashi,...my handsome little boy"
She slowly brought her lips to the child's forehead leaving her gentle imprint on it and then...
*Plop*
Her body fell back, as the baby rolled out her arms,
~OWWW~
I felt the tears well up but I was too distracted to even remember to cry.
~What is going on, how did I end up in Naruto?~
My body was wrapped in a cloth of some sort so the impact from my fall was minimal and now I laid on the bare floor staring up, though I still could not see.
~It's cold again~
My mind tried to come to a conclusion, reason or even possibility as to how this happened and yet I still couldn't and after sometime I realize it was getting much more colder than before almost like the intensity was increasing it was getting painful
"Waaa-*
Before I could even release the weep, I felt my body being picked up by a familiar set of awkward arms.
"You are a curious case, nephew, (feigning sleep technique)"
~What th-~
My eyes felt heavy as I found myself unable to keep my eyes open
====
"You can't do this Kenji!"
I am woken up by the sounds of shouting and voices of arguement.
"It matters little now, dear sister, fight all you want. we can't go back"
"I will not endanger my child, Kenji"
Something was clearly going on with those two but right now my concern was on the pain I felt amplify throughout my body like I was running out of breath.
"*cough*...waaah...*cough*"
In a flash I felt the wind blow on either side of me, notifying me that they were at my side
"Kenji...something is wrong"
"I remember you saying it was normal for a child to weep"
"No..not like this..."
Internally I was screaming, I felt my breath getting thinner with every inhale it got more and more uncomfortable and whether I wanted to or not the crying couldn't stop, the soreness had gotten to agonising at that point.
"Kenji do something!"
"I can't, medical ninjutsu is not a speciality of mine, try feeding him"
"...right"
Kei nodded and in quick succesion took the infant in her arms to feed.
~*whew*...it's getting better but why do i...feel....~
"He fell asleep again"
"That can't be right, he slept the whole boat ride, it can't be normal for him to sleep again"
"Kenji...what's wrong with my baby"
"I can't say for sure but..."
"But what?"
"-but usually compulsive sleep is usually a symptom of chakra exhaustion"
"Chakra exhaustion?, how could a child possibly exhaust their chakra, he hasn't done any jutsu"
"And that's why I can't say for sure."
Kei was clearly panicked and Kenji's lack of an answer was not helping she decided to keep watch of the infant until any other problem arose.
The change in scenery was not helping her nerves, she herself had not fully recovered from her own struggle.
=Weeks later=
The cycle hadn't changed the infant would wake and weep and only sleep after being fed, any moment the child spent awake seemed excuciating for him as all he had ever done was cry.
"I hear Konoha might fall this time"
"Still haven't found a medical-nin?"
"...no, too many of them are participating in the war and I can't exactly put in a formal request since you're regarded as a missing-nin"
"Damn it Kenji, all of this wouldn't have happened if you just listened"
"..."-Kenji
"waaah"
They both looked in the direction of the makeshift crib the child laid in
"He's up"-Kenji
She ran to quickly feed him, having gotten used tothe practice she hushed him quickly till he fell asleep, another thing she found out was that everytime she fed the infant, she herself lost a bit of chakra, leaving them both tired after the feeding.
"Should you really be doing that so often?"-Kenji
"What choice do I have, the sooner we find a medical-nin the sooner we can figure out what's wrong with him."
"I understand Kei"-Kenji

When I figured out I was in Naruto, I really didn't think my life was gonna be like this. It's been months since I arrived to this place, what started of as a exciting reliving of my favourite anime has now just become torture.
Day in, day out I wake up in pain, though I have long since stopped crying, the only way to deal with it is to eat, directly from the source. Now I taken in enough chakra to keep me awake longer.
*Bang*
~Aha, my newspaper is here~
His tall, long navy-haired frame ran in, seeming out of breath with his skin paler than usual
"Konoha has been attacked"
~so that's when I am~
"What?, didn't they just win the war, how could they have been attacked again"
"It wasn't an attack from an enemy nation, it was the demon fox"
"That sounds insane, Kenji"
"Apparently the Hokage fell whilst subduing it"-Kenji
~So that's what's been happening, guess I'm technically older then "you know who"~
"Another thing...I was seen"
"What?!"
~What?!~
Now it was my turn to be shocked as I stared at him, ceasing my feeding willingly
~This idiot, no wonder he was so pale~
"I'm afraid we have to leave once more, dear sister"
"Damn it, we can't keep doing, I told we should have left a long time ago"
"I realize that now and that's why, we have to leave for the hidden leaf"
And just like that we were all shocked once more.
The ground below began to open up revealing cracks as a murky black substance welled up
"We have to inform the Captain"
"You tell her,you started this"
