Hitomi had cried out slightly as the pain in her ears erupted. Her hands traveling up to them instantly while her eyes clenched shut for a moment. She'd hear nothing but ringing while looking up to Kei who seemed to have the same issue. It took her a moment to adjust to the fact that she could no longer hear the area around her. But with her eyesight still able to be used, she still had her bearings as to what was going on around her. She'd see Kei's lips moving but wouldn't be able to hear his voice.

She'd watch as Kinshi fell down to the ground and once more filled the area with a forest to both protect them and attack the enemies that were in the other room. Hitomi was amazed at this ability that she had. Then the burst of wind that cut through the doorway causing the forest that Kinshi just created to protect them to be as if there was a window etched straight to them.

She'd watch as Kei revealed himself to the enemies. She knew about his Sharingan all too well being the cause of it awakening. Again she saw flames dancing in the wood of the trees as she jumped down from the ceiling and made her way to Kinshi as Kei brought his fingers up to his lips to exhale the orb of fire. Though she couldn't hear what was being said by the Jounin, she saw the look on her face and knew from her time helping her mother that there were just some things words were not good for.

With the kunai still in her grip, she'd reach into her side pouch and pull out the container of dumplings that she brought with her. She had made them that morning and had been told on more than one occasion that she was a good cook. Granted it was not a situation that one would expect to have just pull out food, but sometimes even the smallest comfort was enough to give another hope and faith that they would make it through the toughest times they faced. Also it would be needed to help replenish what had been used. She'd take out one from the container and would try to almost force Kinshi's mouth to open so she could place the dumpling in her mouth. Then after that, she'd go to reach around the Jounin's shoulders and hug her tightly. A small comfort. A moment that would be needed just to let her know that they were still there and alright for the most part.

Moving from Kinshi if she had accepted the hug, she'd feel the heat from the fire coming through the doorway and look up to Kei. The boy was amazing. There was no other words for it. She'd feel and see the explosion, turning her face from it to keep from various pieces that would possibly come their way. She'd see Kei panting heavily and take out another dumpling and handed it to him. She was not the fighter that they were, but she could do her best with what she had.

Her ears were still ringing and the extra explosion didn't help much so she was not able to hear what he had said. But she'd look to Kinshi and then back to him. Awaiting to see what they would be doing next or where they would be going.
