'...Worrying.'

'Yes. It is.'

'Jakkou also said something about it being alive, and not Madara, just before she passed out.'

'...I haven't heard that word, but - that might not've been a message for us, especially if she didn't expect to survive.'

'It was a name, I think. But we should pass it along.'

'To Tobi and Shinrei, first, if we can manage that.'

'Mm. Perhaps Anakin can bring one or both here.'

She nods and reaches out to him - 

- Though Shinrei preempts any 'bringing,' arriving in a body flicker.

Occlus nods in greeting.

She nods back - gets a status report from the medics - then steps closer to Occlus and Ani. Her chakra flexes a bit strangely in the air, and the medics' awareness of them fades some.

"What happened?"

Occlus tells the story again, including what Jakkou said.

Her expression goes blank. (She even mostly hides the emotional turmoil.)

"Understood," she says. "I need to send some messages, but - we can talk more in depth once this situation is stable."

"Is the creature likely to return?"

"As far as I can tell, it is entirely dissipated- But I have no real experience. Jakkou may be able to tell us more when she wakes."

"Will you be able to sense it if it does return?"

"Possibly. Again, I can make no guarantees."

"We'll be cautious."

"That is all we can do."

Tired nod. "I'll get us cleaned up here - it might be a little while, though, before Jakkou wakes, and I think it'd be best right now to get in contact with Konoha over this..."

"Likely. We will stay on guard."

Some time later - before Shinrei has returned, after the medics have backed off because she was stable - Jakkou begins to stir.

She doesn't seem very happy about it.

Occlus imagines she wouldn't.

"Hello, Jakkou. Are you feeling better?"

Mmmrmph.

Fair enough.

"More healing?"

"Ugh. No."

"I was able to extract the shade," she says, "if you missed that. It vanished thereafter."
