Harusame Sakuya:
Sakuya tensed up a bit when she heard someone call her name, taking a deep breath when she recognized it as her sensei's. She slowly got up from the floor, using the wall to support herself with her back to finally stand up. She was hesitant to look up, with tears already streaming down her cheeks and her face probably stricken with grief of seeing her teammates lose their life in the chuunin exams' one-on-one matches.
"K-Katsumi... and Jhinsokyo..." Sakuya tried to speak up in between sobs, trying her best to not just cry out from the feelings pent up within her, "They promised... we'll see it through together... but... but..."
The young genin couldn't help it any longer as her tears started dripping on the floor. She couldn't even use her hands right now to cover her face, falling to her knees instead as her cries become more audible.
"I... I couldn't do anything..." Sakuya finally said as she continued to cry on the floor in front of her sensei.
He remained emotionless to the situation but felt responsible, guilty, and empathized with her. Today they both lost people close to them. When she fell to her knees, sobbing loudly in the hallway, he kneeled down, scooping her up in his arms. He cradled her and held her close to him, her head laying on his shoulder as she cried.
"This is not your fault. None of this is your fault," he whispered, trying to reassure her.
"This is my fault. I didn't train either of you strong enough. I didn't push you three pass your limits. I sent you all to your death," he admitted, letting out his own frustrating thoughts.
"I failed you all, but I promise you I will not let that happen again, Sakuya. None of this is your fault," he finished, closing his eyes and just allowing her to cry in his arms.
Sima wasn't one to be known to have a soft side, however when dealing with female squad mates, they normally brought out the best of him for the greater good. They always showed him compassion and that it was okay to actually feel something instead of bottling it all up.
