Draco said in a flat tone, "Of course I can be serious. There are times when being serious is the only way to survive." Draco heard Renkaji ask who made her come after him and said in that same flat tone, "Itachi."<br/><br/>Draco then said in a slightly kinder tone, "You can try to fight me but I'm not going to fight you." Draco turned to look at Deidara, "<span style="font-style: italic">Either</span>of you." Draco then proceeded to toss away all means of defending herself against them if they tried to attack to illustrate that she was being serious when she said she wouldn't fight them. Draco then turned back to Renkaji and said, "Even if Itachi didn't tell me to go after you, I would have done it anyway."<br/><br/>Draco took a breath and said, "You may think you're broken and useless, but you're not. The only way you can see that for yourself is to let in the people who care about you instead of pushing them away. Even if it hurts at first, it will gradually help you see more and more who you are and how the people who care about you see the real you...but you can't get that by running away from your emotions and leaving your friends behind so that you don't have to face those emotions." Draco then held her hand out to him with a kind and gentle smile on her face and said, "Renkaji, let's go home. Let's go back to the Leaf."
