On a sunny day in the Village Hidden in the leaves, a girl with red hair and sea-green eyes was hanging out clothes to dry. Her hair was always in two braids, an apron around her waist. Her name was Aceso Matsuba and she was training to be a healer in the village. She wanted to be respected for healing skills rather than ninja skills. She may even try to pursue her dreams further and become a travel doctor, but she was only twelve at the moment, and not much could happen. Aceso's parents were a doctor and nurses, her parents died when she was a baby, and the hospital took her in as a permanent resident. That's what she's been told about her parents, nothing more and nothing less. She had passed the exams to be a ninja at the age of six 1/2, but instead of being put into a group of three, she was sent back to the hospital to continue her training along with did basic ninja training once in a while. Eventually became a doctor at 10 and a jonin medical ninja, at 11. At the current moment, she was sitting on a hospital rooftop, reading up on medicines, and practicing making medicine. She has tried to make her own medicine, and invent new ones. She was sitting on the floor, with many vitals in front of her. She was waiting for the clothes to dry.

" Doctor Matsuba!" a voice shouted, she jumped, looked up, and saw Lord Hokage standing at the entrance of the room she was working in.

" Lord Hokage," Aceso bowed, she looked back up to see Kakashi, his students, and a man behind him, plus ninjas that protect Lord Hokage. She recognized them from when they visited the hospital, she was friends with Sasuke before the Uchiha incident and checked up on him after the Uchiha incident. She was good friends with Naruto as well, she brought him medicine when he was younger when no one else in the hospital would. She and Sakura were just acquainted, Aceso did some checkups on Sakura, but when she went boy crazy over Sasuke, a distance had grown between them. The whole village seemed to resent Naruto and she didn't understand why, but she always enjoyed his company, she felt like she was one of the only kids that didn't hate him. As for Kakashi, he was like a father figure to her, he wasn't always around, but when he was home, he was made sure to spend time with her. 

" I thought you would be up here," Kakashi said. " It's time you went on a mission outside the village, all your missions have taken place in the hospital and around the village, it's time you took those skills outside, you want to travel as a medical ninja don't you?"

" I don't think I'm ready Kakashi," Aceso said.

" You have been training in this place since you graduated from the Academy, time to put your skills on the field," Kakashi said.

" And from what the staff told me, medical ninjutsu isn't the only one you know," Lord Hokage acknowledge. " You have been perfecting rope ninjitsu, you will be a fine addition to this mission, I'm sure of it."

" What will I be doing?" Aceso asked.

" Escorting this man back to his village," Sakura answered. " When did you graduate from the Acadamey Aceso?"

" She graduated about five years ago," Kakashi answered.

" That's impossible!" Naruto shouted.

" Naruto, we got ramen the day I graduated, remember?" Aceso brought up. He had a blank face.

"Loser," Sasuke grunted. 

"What exactly is this mission?" Aceso asked. 

" Escorting the client Tazuna, a master bridge builder, home" Lord Hokage answered. " I will not accept a no, this is a C-class mission, nothing too hard."

" Well, okay," Aceso gave in. Minutes later Aceso had started her journey with team seven. Well, she did want to be a travel medical-nin, this would be a good start. She only left the village a few times, only with Gai-sensei, he would take her to a festival a town over when she was younger.  While she wasn't in the hospital or off the job she normally wore had fishnet shirt with a purple shirt sleeve hoodie on top of it, red pants that stopped at her knees and got tight there, wrappings from her knees down to her ankles and her ninja shoes. She had four ropes around her waist.
