Sakura's POV

Team 8's instructor, I was never that close to Kurenai-san, but occasionally we would hang out together. She participated in the war, but stopped when she found out that she was pregnant. Later on when the white Zetsu invaded the place where the civilians stayed for cover, she was also with them.

Being the only ninja inside the quarter, and the guards outside dead. She evacuated all the people inside while she took on five white Zetsu disguised as hidden leafs shinobi. Having not fought for a while, and an added plus that she's pregnant. She died along with the child. While being stabbed.

I remembered, team 8's horror and rage, they went on a rampage the very day. Wiping the corner side of the battlefield, after that the evacuation center became silent for a while. Next to die was..... Well anyway.

"Do you have more?" She questioned Hotaru-san, he scrunched up his nose in irritation. " Sorry Yuuhi-san I told you, I don't have anymore in stack. Maybe this afternoon?" Hotaru-san tried to reason.

"May I at least meet the one who made it?" Kurenai-san again asked, as I stepped closer. "I'm sorry bu- Sakura-chan! Are the papers done?" Hotaru-san was again about to apologise when he saw me. I can notice that he sighed with relief.

"Hai Hotaru-san," I gave Hotaru-san the two papers and bowed to Kurenai-san. She raised an eyebrow at me, and looked at my pink hair with obvious surprise and delight. "Well aren't you a cute little child, tell me are you lost?" She crouched down at my height and poked my nose.

I titled my head and she covered her mouth stifling a screech as her eyes sparkled. "Etto- I'm not konoichi-san?.." I deliberately looked at her weapon pouch. Her eyes turned crescent.

"My my, you sure are intelligent," from her crescent eyes I can see a glint flash by. "Etto- Kurenai-san I think your request would be fulfilled." I shot a confused glance at Hotaru-san, so he turned to me. "Kurenai-san, wanted one of your potions. But their were none left, so I refused" he whispered.

I nodded to him unnoticed. "Well then if you are not lost, then what are you doing here cherry-chan?" Kurenai-san asked. Ignoring Hotaru-san who was about to fulfill her request. "I'm delivering papers to Hotaru-san" I innocently smile like a trained liar I am.

"I see, are you working here cherry-chan?" She asked again. "Hmmn you could say that." I bobbled my head up and down as cutely as possible. Hiding everything that she will deem suspicious.

"Do tell me, what is your work?" She ignored Hotaru-san who was trying to get her attention back to him. "Delivering papers," I lied between my teeth. She was about to ask another question when Hotaru-san finally succeeded in earning her attention back to him.

"So you want the potions or not Kurenai-san? If not I'm sur-" her head snapped back to Hotaru-san, smile still present from her mouth. "I'll take it." I could only stifle a giggle at the helplessness of Hotaru-san.

"All of it?" Hotaru-san asked. "Hmm" Kurenai-san made a sound affirming, while she was busy pinching my cheeks and playing with my hair. Hotaru-san sighed and packed the potions.

Kurenai-san handed him the amount owed, pinched my cheeks one more time and waved goodbye to Hotaru-san. We watched her back walk away, we looked at each other and sighed tiredly.
