The girl with Pink Hair

Chapter Twenty Four

"Achoo!"

"Bless you." Shizune said walking into the Hokage's office.

"Thank you." Tsunade sniffed, "Shizune?" Tsuande called looking through the piles of unorganized papers on her desk.

"Yes Lady Tsuande?"

"Have you seen the supplies report from Dr. Yu?"

"I have not, she was supposed to turn it in this morning."

"Ugh!" Tsunade groaned rubbing her face. "How am I supposed to order the supplies they need if she doesn't give me the list!?"

"How about I go over to the hospital and get it from her?" Shizune offered,

"Yes, thank you!"

"I will be back." Shizune bowed her head and quickly leaving the office. Shizune walked briskly through the village, she spotted Naruto and Sasuke walking towards the training grounds together. She wanted to stop and wave but the sooner she got those reports from Dr. Yu the less of a chance Tsuande would explode.

Shizune got to the leaf village hospital and quickly looked at the surgery board, she wanted to see if Dr. Yu was in any surgeries that would have prevented her from turning in her forms, but she wasn't scheduled any operations for the day.

"How odd..." Shizune muttered, walking away from the nurse's station and checked Dr. Yu's office but came up empty handed again. "Excuse me-" Shizune pulled a passing by nurse.

"Yes?" The nurse questioned.

"Do you know where Dr. Yu is?"

"Last I heard she got pulled into an emergency surgery, my case load as doubled because of it."

"But her name wasn't on the board."

"If it's an emergency then it wouldn't be updated." The nurses explained, "I think I heard something about operating room four being in use, try there."

"Thank you." Shizune nodded turning on her heel as she made her way back downstairs to the first level of the hospital. Shizune sighed, this was her exercise for the day. Shizune grabbed a mask and put it over her face before entering operating room number four. Shizune looked around at the minimal staff, what was going on? Where was everyone?

"Dr. Yu?" Shizune walked more into the room, as she did Shizune's heart skipped seeing the pink hair flowing down the metal table. "What-What!?" Shizune gasped, "What happened to Commander Haruno!?"

"Nothing." Dr. Yu waved off, "She is stable and going to be fine."

"Then why on earth are you operating in secret!?" Shizune accused, the low number of staff inside this room made sense to her now, why her name wasn't on the board. This surgery was going to look like it never happened. Dr. Yu sighed, turning her head and looking at the short black-haired woman.

"Am I going to have a problem with you?" Dr. Yu asked, thinking back to this morning when Sakura Haruno, commander of another village walked into her office...

~~ Earlier Today ~~

Knock...Knock...

"Come in." Dr. Yu called from her desk; the door opened revealing the last person Dr. Yu was expecting to see.

"Commander Haruno?" Dr. Yu stood, "Everything alright?"

"Yes." Sakura smiled, "The sky isn't collapsing just yet."

"Well that is a relief, every time I see you there is always some disaster not to far behind."

"Yeah-" Sakura chuckled, "-that is one of my talents."
