It not even morning yet but my ankle hurts so bad I'm considering cutting it off myself.

I roll over the soft grey sheets and peer at my ankle.

I gasp at the sight. My ankle is not getting better if anything it's looking more swollen and bruised higher up my leg.

That lady fixed it right? Why is it not getting better!?

I manage to get onto the floor. I then crawl army style to the door trying to keep my foot from hitting anything.

I crawl out into the living room and see Kakashi fell asleep with a book in his hand.

I get closer and I'm able to touch his other hand that's fallen down from the couch.

He flinches slightly but then sits up.

"Akari?!" He says.

I'm completely out of breath. And I'm starting to see spots again.

"My leg." I say.

He jumps up once he sees it.
"Wait just a second! I'll be right back!" He says and runs out the front door.

I lay there for at least a few minutes. And then let my head rest on my arms.

"Akari!?" I hear that Tsunade lady call.

I squint at the bright light and now see I'm in the hospital.

I look around panicking.

"Akari! This leg of yours is causing me a lot of headache." She says.

She crosses her arms and sighs. Her assistant is there and is giving me a weak smile.

Kakashi places a hand on my shoulder.
"Akari. It's just us here. We need to know about what could be causing this."

I look down and see the bruising has succeeded my knee.

"I don't know." I say honestly.

"And what exactly did it look like before I healed the injury?" She says to Kakashi.

"Nothing more than a swollen ankle. She didn't complain about it much other than it felt sore." He replies.

"I see." Lady says.
"Well then I'll have to get an opinion of another person. If that's alright?" She says starting at me with strong eyes.

"Yes." I say weakly.

The assistant opens a door and returns with another woman.

"Anko." Lady tsunade says.

The woman looks tough but is not rude.

"Can I see?" She asks and smiles at me.

I nod my head and she looks close at my neck. She then grabs my palms and looks at those too.

"And the seal you made Kakashi?" She asks.

He pulls the collar down slightly on my shirt.

She looks at it and then proceeds to look at my leg.

"I'm gonna poke at it a little. Let me know if it's too much." She says.

I nod again. This time not so sure about it.

She traces her fingers along with almost no pressure.

She turns my leg left and right. She then presses on various places from above my knee down.
