Chapter 1: Medic Mission!
"The Hidden Sand... the desert?! Tsunade-sama..." Sakura whined. Of all the places... the desert! Nothing was making her go!
"I'm not going! No way!" Sakura pouted.
Tsunade glared at her. Sakura didn't even flinch. She was used to these glares.
Tsunade gave a great, fake sigh.
"Fine... that's too bad. I guess I'll have to find someone else to accompany Sasuke..." Tsunade said.
"Sasuke-kun?!" Sakura perked up instantly.
"I guess I'll have to get Ino to go with him..." Tsunade continued, ignoring what Sakura had said. Heh, bingo! Tsunade thought.
"Not Ino-pig-- I mean, uh, I changed my mind! I'll go! With... Sas-uke-kun..." Sakura said dreamily. The pink haired medic assistant zoned out and began daydreaming about Sasuke-kun.
"Alright, listen up. You have to-- Damn it! Are you even listening to me?!?" Tsunade glared at her apprentice. Sakura was still thinking about Sasuke and was oblivious to Tsunade's outburst.
"SAKURAAAA!!!!" Tsunade flung a first-aid kit at Sakura's head. Unfortunately for Sakura, Tsunade had great aim.
"Owww! OK, OK... I'll listen..." Sakura held her aching head.
"Hmph. You'll be needing that first-aid kit," Tsunade remarked.
"How ironic," Sakura glanced at the first-aid kit that was thrown at her.
"Anyway, back to business. You and Sasuke will go to the Hidden Sand to see the kazekage, Shubuka no Gaara, and see if the rumors of the Oasis pearl are true."
"Oasis Pearl?" Sakura asked.
Tsunade sighed heavily and a vein in her temple was visible.
"Sakura, haven't you heard? According to rumors from the Hidden Sand, the Oasis Pearl is a pearl made from clams that use a very special sand enriched with nutrients and minerals! Apparently, this "oasis" is surrounded by that sand, and these clams live in that oasis!" (for those that don't know, clams use sand and other foreign items that enter their shell to make pearls!)
"Where's the oasis?" Sakura asked, "And why do we need to find this out?"
"Idiot!! These pearls could improve medicines! But be careful..." Tsunade warned, "I've heard thieves are after these pearls too. That's why I need Sasuke to go with you. No offense, but your fighting skills aren't that good."
"What about Naruto?" Sakura asked , disregarding the last comment.
"He quit being a ninja and devoted his life to testing new ramen products."
"WHAAAAT?!?!?" Sakura was shocked.
"Calm down... I was just kidding," Tsunade chuckled.
"Cut it out Tsunade-sama! You nearly gave me a heart attack!" Although her 'Inner Sakura' was laughing and could just picture Naruto eating ramen all day.
"Your mission starts tomorrow, get your things ready and meet me and Sasuke at the edge of the forest," Tsunade said. "Bring a canteen and your ninja weapons."
"Yes, Tsunade-sama!" Sakura saluted her sensei and left.
This is the end of chappie 1! What do think? R and R please! I hope it didn't suck...
