He chuckled, pointing at them, "Ok, you give me more credit then I deserve. I thought there was only one, then four more came out." Kakashi narrowed his eyes, "Excuse me if my skills aren't like they used to be, dork." He winked again to show he was kidding.

"Thanks, Robin." Kakashi said, closing his eyes. He began to relax, but he didn't fall asleep.

Kakashi was restless in less then ten minutes. He opened his eyes, and tried to sit up, sighing.

Kakashi huffed, but grabbed the tome, flipping it open. He began to read, and soon, his entire mind was wrapped in the story.

Kakashi merely grunted in response.

About an hour later, a soft thump came from where Kakashi was. He was asleep, with the book on his face..

He was over halfway finished with the book before he konked out. He looked peaceful, completely different from his usual stressed features.

Kakashi slept peacefully for once, but it didn't last...
DREAM Kakashi looked around, confused. "The leaf village? I-I'm home?" He stammered, looking around. He burst into tears of joy, but was silenced by a cold voice, "You..." Kakashi looked up, and his eyes lit up when he saw Sakura. "Sakura!" He exclaimed, standing up and laughing, however he saw the look on his apprentice's face, and went silent. "Sakura?" "Y-you..." She snarled, clenching her fists, "Left us. Took Naruto with you too. We needed you, Kakashi... WHERE THE HELL WERE YOU!" Kakashi winced as the hand hit his face, knocking him off balance. "IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT! SASUKE, MASTER JIRIYA, IRUKA-SENSEI, SHIKAMARU, LEE, GUY, THEY'RE ALL DEAD! AND IT'S YOUR FAULT!" She screamed, kicking Kakashi. Kakashi didn't resist, just stared at her in disbelief, "N-no..." He muttered, both in his dream and outloud. "Just die." Sakura snarled, and a kunai slashed through his chest. "AAGH!" Kakashi shot up to a sitting position, panting heavily. His eye was wide, and he shook uncontrollably. He didn't register the room around him, his mind was blank.

He panted heavily, not focusing. "No. No. No. No. No." He put his head in his hands.

Kakashi's eyes slowly refocused, and he looked at Robin with confusion, "Why are you standing over my bed looking worried?" He asked, raising his brow. Kakashi tried to act like nothing happened, but the constant tremors didn't help his case.

Kakashi's facade didn't last. His shoulders slumped, and he let his head droop, as he stared at his lap. "I-I'm fi-fine. I'm a b-big kid, y'know..."

Kakashi met their eyes for a second, but averted his gaze moments later. "Nightmares have always been a problem for me..." He began, his voice soft and shaky. "It's hard not to have them when your best friend died in battle and gave you his eye, or when your lover jumps in front of your attack and you kill her, or when your mentor dies saving your entire village from certain doom." He let out a sigh, "Unlike other peoples nightmares, mine aren't pointless, like getting eaten by spiders or buried alive or something. Mine all share one thing..." He rubbed his temples, "they get into my worst memories and make me want to die because of guilt." Kakashi paused, thinking about something, then shuddered. "Robin, it's life. These nightmares are a part of me now, you can't help..." The silver haired ninja suddenly looked up, meeting Robin's eyes with an intense gray stare. "That is why I'm trying to keep everyone here safe. I don't think I can handle anymore guilt on my shoulders...."

Robin frowned as they listened, thinking for a moment before nodding in understanding. "I understand, Kakashi - I know fighting is hard. I had to watch myself kill my best friend twice, his daughter wanted me dead, and one of my strategies ended up killing my husband," they said with a tired sigh, shaking their head. "Sometimes just getting up is the hardest because I've convinced myself that it's my fault. But, we have to keep going for the same reason you said - we have to protect them. But, if we end up dead for any reason, we can't do that. We can't protect them if we're dead."

Kakashi just nodded. He glanced down at his watch, and his eyes twinkled with mischief. "I've got 24 hours left."
