What Remains

Kyoryu stood still for a moment before unbinding Reon. Hitori tried to lift his head and look at what was going on behind him, but the pain threatened to increase. 

But he could at least watch Akira's expressions. Hitori lowered his head. Crossing the line of his stomach, he saw Akira staring at Hitori's room with a relieved smile on his face. 

"I will look after her," Kakashi said before pulling Reon inside. 

Kyo glanced over his shoulders and saw the men pulling the hooks of the dynamite bombs. The fire had finally settled outside, and now they were willing to start another fire. 

"Quick," Hitori said. "They have got dynamites."

"Yes, they do. But do you know how many they have?"

"NO," he said in a cracking voice, "but we can not risk it. Does not matter how strong the shield is, I bet Eya-nee is tired now. So we should really not risk it."
