Here we go, let's try this story stuff again shall we?
I hope you enjoy the prologue to my new story Prescribed Cure.
I own nothing (sadly) but my random NPCs and Sasha Kochi.
Sasha grinned with pleasure as she was finally able to close her desk for the last time that night. Paperwork and filing, the bane of her existence, the only thing she hated about being the main doctor her small little village but it had to be done. Now the only thing left to her was to go home and enjoy a cup of steaming hot coca.
Walking over to the only locker in the entire building, Sasha tore of her lab coat and threw it in. She took a few seconds to glance at herself in the mirror. Pale, almost porcelain skin looked back at her, matched by her white hair, her natural lavender highlights blended in perfectly. She used to have a hell of a time convincing people that they were natural highlights, so she eventually gave up. Her scrubs made her look even more dull. Shrugging she put on her coat and left the building, waving to her night nurse.
Sasha felt bad about leaving Jin alone for the night shift but the young lady agreed to it heartily. Don't worry about it! The young nurses' voice echoed through Sasha's head, "Nothing ever happens in a small town like this one, I'll be fine!"
Haha, fine indeed, Sasha truly believed that if Nurse Jin and a rhino got into a staring contest, Nurse Jin would win. Nothing ever was able to intimidate the nurse. Sasha was also glad that the nurse didn't have any resentment to the young doctor. Since Jin was in her middle forties and Sasha was only twenty four.
"Have a goodnight doctor!" A young voice yelled as she walked out into the cool night air, throwing her out of her thoughts. The voice came from a group of kids hanging out by the alleyway of her office.
"Shouldn't you kids be heading home?" The doc eyed them. Spying one of them Sasha sighed. "Especially you Mai, you're older sister is going to kill you."
The young girl she addressed just smiled a mischievous grin. "Yeah I suppose," The young girl hopped off of the box, her pigtails swaying on her head. "C'mon guys, let's get going."
As the kids ran off Sasha smiled to herself. Another reason she became a doctor; the smiles she received from those she was able to help, they made her heart melt. She loved the small village she lived in, as well as the small clinic she was able to build. It was the best thing she could have done for herself.
1:24 a.m. her clock mocked as she walked through the door to her one bedroom, single floored house. The place had nothing past necessities and papers lying about. Throwing her stuff on the couch she went into her kitchen and made herself some hot coca. The only thing that let her release at the end of the day was the hot mug of chocolate heaven that she had in her hand.
Finally after a long day of work, Sasha was able to sit down on her couch and sigh contently. Slowly, with the aid of her chocolate heaven she was able to doze off.
"Shit, do I really have to do this?" A frustrated voice muttered down the dark alleyway. "If I didn't know any better, I say you got the better end of the deal…"
"Quit complaining, you useless fool." A much deeper, gruff voice sounded from right next to the other. You know what we have to do."
Shuffle shuffle. The classic noise of someone moving positions was heard as the smaller of the men moved from foot to foot. "Fuck you, I know our mission. I just wish that we could do it some other way."
Adjacent from the alleyway the two were in was the doctor's house; both their eyes were fixed on the young woman dozing on her couch. There was a small snicker as the smaller man eyed the place. "I dunno, she doesn't seem too concerned about people staring through her window does she?"
The older man rolled his eyes and stood to his full height. "Come Hidan, we have a job to do. You know our leader's orders and he wants this girl. Alive. Intact. You got that."
"Heh, are you sure that I'm the one we need to worry about? You're the one who's always offing or targets befo-" His words were cut off as a fist impacted his face. The man, Hidan, just laughed. As the pair left the alley and walked towards the outskirts of town Hidan couldn't help the sinister grin that was plastered on his face.
Oh, was this going to be fun…
BAM!
….
BAM! BAMBAM! BAMBAMBAMBAM!
…Huh?
Sasha blinked as the loud annoying noise interrupted her nice nap. She looked over to the clock and sighed. 3:46 a.m. She shook her head, at least I was able to get a few hours of sleep. The pounding on her door continued as she was able to groggily make her way to her door.
"Wha-?" Was the only reply she was able to get out before the high pitched, stressed voice of Nurse Jin interrupted her.
"Come quickly! Come quickly, Doctor Kochi! We have an emergency!"
So, I hope you enjoyed it.
Hopefully when I get back into the grove of writing the chapters will get longer!
