A shadow of a shadow

[ To say the ambush came from nowhere would be an understatement. There hadn't been a single sign that Matsunaga's forces would be in the area, much less attack the small band of scouting ninja. Perhaps some would say the ninja were sloppy, but they hadn't overlooked anything. There's just no good way to predict that bastard, especially when he has the legendary ninja, Kotaro Fuma, under his command. Only so much could have been done.

And the results are strewn across the battlefield. Yes, the Sanada Ninja Corps fought back, even taking down a few enemies. The majority of the dead are still from their side. Sasuke lays on the ground, unmoving but still alive. There's a lot of blood and a sizable wound to his forehead. He's practically on death's doorstep.

Yet... somehow how he doesn't die later from his injuries, and when he does wake, there's a blankness to his gaze. ]

Can a tiny dragon be a wingman for a moe fox?

[ The text Sasuke gets from Masamune is kinda random, but it's not really anything new coming from the baseball player. Come over to Kaname's and plan to be busy for a few hours, if not the rest of the night.

But the dress nice request attached to it? Sasuke doesn't exactly know what to make of that. He comes wearing a wide-neck t-shirt and a simple pair of long pants, nothing that would be out of place for daily wear. He also brings his schoolbag because he assumes it's going to be a impromptu math study session or problem solving one of the Date books that isn't making any sense.

Let's be real, if Sasuke had any idea of what Masamune had planned, he might not have shown up at all. Although, given recent in-person and not-in-person interactions, Sasuke probably should be have questioned the motivation behind such an invitation. ]
