Waiting room
Disclaimer- I do not own Naruto and I modified a plot line from Scrubs and I don't own that either. Just one upsetting story from me. Written by Onyx.
Naruto bounded into Tsunade's office. Sakura, Shizune, Hinata, Jiriya and Shikamaru were in there.
'Hey guys…is something wrong?'
Hinata put a hand on Naruto's shoulder.
'Naruto, Tsunade was ambushed on her way back from Suna. She's in a coma.'
It was only then Naruto noticed that both Sakura and Shizune were covered in blood. Sakura had a long gash across her stomach. Both of them had been with Tsunade on the mission.
'W-what?'
Naruto turned to look at Shizune. Shizune looked to the floor.
'Chances are she won't come out of a coma. We need you to get the rest of the Konoha 12 to the hospital. They'll want to say their last goodbyes.'
'She's not dying!! She's gonna make it.'
Everyone turned to Sakura. No emotion other than anger crossed her 19 year old face.
'She is going to come out of it. She wouldn't want you to think she was gonna die.'
Shizune sighed.
'Lets just go to the hospital.'
Naruto disappeared off to find everyone else. Soon everyone was at the hospital. Sakura was sat on the front desk doing paper work. One at a time everyone went in. Except Sakura. When Sasuke came out from saying goodbye, he walked over and joined Sakura, his girlfriend of 7 months.
'Sakura.'
'Yes?'
'You should go say goodbye.'
'She's not dying.'
'You might not get a chance to say goodbye if you don't go now.'
'I'm sick and tired of this. Sure her condition isn't getting better but it's not getting worse. I'm gonna keep up the faith. And finish this in my office.'
Sakura picked up the paperwork and left the waiting room everyone was now sat in. Shizune came in.
'Where's Sakura?'
'She went to her office.'
'Tsunade's chances just slipped. There is a 80 to 20 percent chance that she'll pass within the next hour.'
The next thing anyone knew Sasuke was outside Sakura's office.
'Sakura. Open up.'
'No.'
'It's either you open up or I break the door down.'
Sakura opened the door.
'What.'
'There's an 80% chance Tsunade will pass within the next hour. Even if you don't believe that she'll die…this is your last chance to say goodbye. I'd take it.'
Sakura sighed before following Sasuke to Tsunade's room. Sasuke stayed outside. Sakura walked over to the bed.
'Hey Tsunade. It's me, Sakura.'
Sakura held Tsunade's hand.
'I'll never forget you. You were the best teacher I had. Remember my first day at the hospital? The head nurse was really mean to me. And my first operation I threw up afterwards. And when I had a patient die on me. It's gonna be hard not having you to guide me. You've always been there for me. Like a second mum.'
Sakura's eyes started to well up with tears.
'Things will be different without you but…we'll stick together…me and Shizune. And the rest of the Konoha 12. I'll look after Ton-Ton. I promise. Bye Tsunade.'
Sakura let go of Tsunade's hand as Tsunade's heart stopped. Just the continuous tone filled the room. Shizune, Naruto and Sasuke came in. Sakura felt Sasuke get her to stand up and turn to him before hugging her. She cried. Naruto and Shizune got rid of the machines and covered Tsunade with a white sheet.
It seemed as if Tsunade had held on.
Just for Sakura to say goodbye.
