I'm not as weak as you think

I woke up in a hospital bed, staring at the white ceiling. I couldn't remember what happened after I rose from the ground with the rest of Team Kakashi. I stared at the ceiling, trying to remember. I stayed like that for what feels like hours, until the door slid open and the Hokage walked in with a black haired woman carrying a pig with clothes. I sat up and bowed my head saying "Hokage-sama."

"Sakura, you did something dangerous. You were already low on chakra and you had a fever. You'll be staying here for a couple of weeks. The nurses will watch you and check you out when they think your well enough to take care of yourself." She said to me in a stern tone. " But Hokage-sama! Being a ninja is my purpose to live! I never went a day without a mission! I need a S rank solo! I promise to take it easy! I swear!" I pleaded with her. I wasn't going to stop until I got a dangerous mission. "Alright fine. I'll send you to spy on the Akatsuki. Earn their trust and to give us information on their plans and location. This is a long term mission and the end will be determined. You leave in 30 minutes." She said. "Hai!" I replied.

"Do you know what this means?!"

'Yes Inner, I do. We are going home!'

"What about Mom and Dad? What are we going to tell them?"

'I don't know, but we'll figure something out.'

I checked out of the hospital and went home. I sent a letter to Pein saying that I'll be back. I packed my bags and left a note for my parents. I snuck into the file room, in the Hokage building, and took very important documents. I teleported to the front gates and ran into the forest. I changed into one of my dresses made from the Akatsuki cloak and put on my old headband with the slash through the village symbol. I headed towards the hideout only stopping to eat.

After a couple of hours, I stood in front of the entrance. I performed a number of hand signs and waited for the rock to move. Once the rock moved back, I yelled "I'M HOME!!!" I only took a few steps into the hideout before being knocked to the floor. "Saku-chan! Your home!"

"Konan-chan! Your squishing me!"

"Sorry!"

"I need to see Pein-sama."

When I went to the office door, I knocked and walked in. "Pein-sama." I said while bowing. "Stand up, child." I obeyed and walked up to his desk. I dug into my bag and took out the scroll containing the important documents and plans. I held it out and said "I brought the most important documents from the ANBU file room and information about the tailed beasts." He took the scroll and placed it on his desk. "I also want to say that I will be returning to the Hidden Leaf once the Hokage sends word on my mission. Do you happen to have a mission for me?" I said with a smile. "Perhaps I do." He said in reply. "You can go on an assassination mission. You have to kill Orochimaru and bring back his ring." He said. I nodded and bowed before leaving the office. I head to my room to unpack and to pack for my mission. 'Kill Orochimaru, huh?' I thought as I opened a bag and started to take out its contents. This mission was going to take a while.
