Still in no one's POV.
Inoichi was confused. One second he's interrogating some criminal, and the next he's being summoned to some kids bedside. Not only that, the kid has fucking wings and a tail.
"I hate to do this such short notice Inoichi-san, but we need your expertise, that and you have permission from the Hokage to even know the truth about this kid." The doctor sighed, looking at the sleeping boy who was covered in blankets and now peacefully sleeping.
"What the hell happened?" Inoichi asked.
"His sensei mentioned that he said something and then he vomited and collapsed, soon passing out." The nurse said.
"Past trauma?" Inoichi guessed.
"Don't know, no one really does." The doctor said. "Tenzo-san could tell you more than I can."
"Let's just say that Orochimaru left him behind after fucking with him for a bit." Tenzo scoffed. "Throw in the possibility that he witnessed his families murder and experiments done by Orochimaru and you've got it for the most part."
"We need you to do a little digging Inoichi-san." The doctor said. "We can't help him if we don't know how."
Inoichi glanced at the sleeping kid.
"Alright, I'll do it."
~~~~~
Getting into his mind was easy, but then again, he wasn't fighting it and he's a genin.
Inoichi's consciousness floated through Yuuto's mind passing several doors that flitted with memories, some happy and others bad. One memory depicted a four-year-old boy receiving presents. One gift was a hand made stuffed dragon and the other was a small bow and a quiver of arrows.
As Inoichi began to explore further and further, he got to older and older memories. He passed fuzzy memories of childhood and even dark memories of pain and suffering. But one memory baffled him.
One door was just complete darkness, no sound, no light. Just darkness. It was as if Yuuto had memories of before he was even alive. Even more baffling, the doors still went on, as if there was someone else's lifetime of memories on top of his own. But they were all fuzzy as if being viewed on low resolution.
Inoichi had seen many minds, but this one was different.
And he had a guess as to why.
~~~~~
Inoichi gasped and he was back in the real world, Tenzo, the doctor, and the nervous nurse crowded around him as Yuuto still slept somewhat soundly.
"How much do you all actually know about his past?" Inoichi asked.
"Honestly not all that much," Tenzo admitted. "When he first came here, he was a little unstable and the Hokage was going to question him for information, but he was seven and still recovering from being with Orochimaru. Did you find something?"
"Kind of." Inoichi replied.
"What do you mean kind of?" Tenzo asked.
"His memories," Inoichi sighed. "They're different. He has more than he should."
"What do you mean?" The doctor asked, suddenly feeling very left out.
"He has memories from today to the day he was born, to beyond that." Inoichi explained. "He has a memory of just darkness, and beyond that, he has another lifetime's worth of memories."
"How is t-that possible?" The nurse asked, adjusting the blanket over Yuuto so that it hid his wings and tail.
"It shouldn't be, key word being should," Inoichi said. "However, there is one possibility."
"What?" Tenzo asked.
"I believe Yuuto has lived before."
~~Yuuto~~
I shifted over, finally feeling my body move. My eyes were heavy, my body weak, and I felt sick. I slowly opened my eyes, feeling like they had been glued shut. Today is just not going my way.
When I open my eyes fully, I catch the attention of four people, however, they aren't my team. A blonde man with long hair stared at me curiously as a doctor and a nurse adjusted a blanket the fell off me. I almost screamed as my tail slipped free, but instead, I dove for it, pulling it back up and attempting to shove it under the covers, then noticing that my shirt was missing and my wings awkwardly hung, draping down my back. My eyes landed on Tenzo and I violently suppressed the urge to lunge at him with a hug.
"What the fuck is going on?" I hissed, not happy at the number of unknown people here.
Tenzo hit the back of my head. "Language."
"Hey, a lot has happened today, I get one free swear." I sighed.
"Fine, that's all you get though." Tenzo huffed.
"Now could someone please tell me what's going on?" I asked.
"After you passed out you were brought to the hospital," The doctor said. "And because of your unique circumstance, the Hokage himself had something in place for a situation like this."
"I think that's why I'm here now." The blonde man said. "I'm Inoichi Yamanaka by the way."
"I'd say nice to meet you, but this has been bizarre, I'm Yuuto, Yuuto Tatsumi." I replied. "Oh yeah, and is my team anywhere near here?"
"They are right outside, would you like me to let them in?" The doctor asked. "Of course only after we're finished in here."
"Does this mean I can put my shirt back on?" I asked.
"Of course," The doctor said. "And can I ask you some questions?"
"I guess so." I shrugged, then squinting. "Where are my glasses."
"H-here they are." The nurse said, gently putting them on my face.
"Thank you, that's much better." I sighed.
"Now, can I ask you a question?" The doctor asked.
"Sure."
"What triggered this... Episode?" He asked.
"I was just reminded of something that happened a long time ago." I replied, clutching my shirt.
"So, past trauma?" The doctor asked.
"I mean, yes?" I replied nervously.
"Well, that's all for now, but if you could maybe come back next week for a checkup and psychiatrist session, that'd be great." The doctor said.
"Alright." I agreed, slipping on my shirt and overcoat. "And you can let my team in now."
"I'll let them in, I have to get going anyway," Inoichi said, walking to the door. "Let's hope this doesn't happen again."
Inoichi left the room and I looked at Tenzo.
"See you later?" I chuckled.
"See you at home." Tenzo agreed.
A swirl of leaves kicked up and Tenzo was gone.
"Dammit!" The nurse exclaimed. "Do that outside! Now I have to sweep!"
~~~~~
The doctor pulled back the curtain around my hospital bed and the door burst open. Sakura of all people ran over to me and crushed me in a hug, thankfully her arms were around my neck and not my back.
"I'm so sorry Yuuto!" Sakura sobbed. "This all must be my fault! I was always so mean to you!"
"I'm fine Sakura," I insisted, peeling her arms off me. "Quit sobbing on me!"
"Yuuto, why did you pass out?!" Naruto exclaimed.
"Calm down, I'm fine now, this is just what happens when I eat a big breakfast and then do a lot of moving." I easily lied.
"Don't do something this stupid again," Sasuke said, crossing his arms. "It was a pain bringing you here."
"You scared me there." Kakashi sighed. "I thought I had done something there for a second."
"Nope, this was all my fault, but I'm glad you were all there to help me." I honestly replied.
"Well then team, I have an announcement," Kakashi said, holding up the bells. "In regards to your first mission, all I have to say is, are you sure abandoning the mission was the right choice?"
"Of course it was!" Naruto exclaimed. "Our teammate was in trouble, who cares about the mission!"
"We had to help him, we couldn't just continue the test as we watched him suffer!" Sakura said.
"We could use his help, if he's passed out on the ground he isn't helping us." Sasuke agreed, for the most part.
If I hadn't already done enough crying for today I probably would be crying.
"Thanks, guys," I smiled. "And sorry for making our mission end early."
"Well said," Kakashi smiled. "And without further ado, I'd like to tell you all that you... PASS!"
"How?" Sakura asked. "We didn't get any of the bells and the mission ended early."
"Because of one of my own rules," Kakashi said. "Those who abandon their mission are scum, that's true, but those abandon their comrades are worse than scum."
I couldn't help but smile.
"Meet me tomorrow at 7 am at the Academy, that's where the missions are being assigned." Kakashi said. "Dismissed!"
Kakashi vanished in a swirl of leaves.
"Damn you shinobi!" The nurse screeched. "DAMN YOU ALL!"
