Chapter One

So much to do…gotta treat Choji for indigestion, Kurenai for labor problems, three Jonin with broken limbs…so much to do, so little time… Sakura Haruno scurried quickly towards the Hidden Leaf Hospital, silently cursing herself for sleeping late. The sun was peaking the sky, and the Kunoichi sped up. It was one thing to show up late for work, but it was something entirely different where your boss was Tsunade.

"Sakura-san!"

Sakura Haruno turned at the familiar voice of Rock Lee, self-proclaimed Handsome Devil of the Leaf Village. He was dressed in his customary attire of green spandex and orange leg warmers. As usual, Sakura smiled and waved at him, not particularly wanting to get into another discussion about whether or not she would be his girlfriend-especially when she was so late already. However, Lee moved in and Sakura braced herself for yet another grueling rant about youth.

"Hello Lee," Sakura said in a friendly tone, "how's your day going?"

Lee grabbed Sakura by the arms, and for the first time she realized that there was something other than childish obsession in his eyes. "Sakura-san…you must come to help!" The wind lowing made his hair float gently, and his big eyes were sparkling with a pitiful look of urgency.

Sakura blinked in question, and Lee began to drag her off towards the forest. Sakura allowed herself to be towed, wondering what could make such a hot-blooded person look so helpless.

"G-Guy Sensei…" Lee said in a hurt voice, "H-he…needs help." They were very close to the training field now, and Sakura was a bit worried. Had Guy Sensei gotten hurt? A moan was audible, and Sakura felt anxiety bubble in her stomach. The two picked up their pace as they got closer to the clearing.

Once the trees had thinned out, and the training field was right before them, Sakura saw a green body sitting in a fetal position right next to a practice dummy. Loud sobs filled the air, and Sakura ran over to him to inspect his wounds. As she approached, Guy held a hand out behind him tas a halt, not turning to meet her gaze. Being a medic nin, Sakura proceeded anyway.

"Don't look at me…" came the plea from the wad of green and orange that had once been the proud and "youthful" Might Guy. Sakura reached her hand forwards, prepared for the worst. She touched his shoulder, and pulled him gently back. His head snapped around on reflex at the contact, and Sakura gasped. What she saw before her was…well…something she would never have thought she would ever see in her entire life. It was both terrifying, and awe inspiring.

"M-My youth...it's gone….." Guy sobbed.

Lee had his eyebrows arched in a piteous expression, and Sakura was staring wide-eyed and disbelieving. Her jaw was practically touching the ground.

Somebody had shaved Guy's eyebrows down to normal size.


Sakura walked away; half angry that she had wasted her time for such a pointless situation. She had left Guy still wallowing in self-pity with Lee attempting to comfort him and was heading back to the hospital; back to the place where she could treat people with real problems.

"Sakura!" Lee was running after her, and Sakura sighed. She turned around, half-reluctant to have to speak with him again, and gave her best effort of a friendly face. "Sakura-san…I apologize for wasting your precious time. I realize that my sensei's "problem" might not have been worth your coming, but I was worried about him due to his intense reaction."

Sakura sighed audibly and smiled lying through her teeth, "It's fine, Lee. I was in no big hurry. Anyway, how did that happen?"

Lee made a confused expression, "I...I do not know. He came to train with me this morning, as he always does, and I pointed it out. He ran to the stream, and when he saw his reflection…well…"

"Then, you don't know who did it?" Sakura asked, her curiosity still burning. Lee scratched the back of his head.

"I do not know…I am sorry."

Sakura smiled, disappointed that she still didn't know, and said goodbye to Lee. "I have to go to see Tsunade-sama now, but if you ever need any more help," Sakura inwardly slapped herself for adding, "you know where to find me."

Lee grinned, letting his teeth gleam and replied, "Thank you Sakura-san! I greatly appreciate your help!"

And with that, the green-clad ninja ran away into the sunset (ironically), and Sakura trudged off to the Hidden Leaf Hospital, now more exhausted than she had ever been.


*****This is my first story, and I'm sorry it's so short so far! If I get (any) reviews, I'll continue...Heck, I'll continue anyway. Also, I MIGHT put some couplings in her. I'm still deciding. Errr...this is a stupid commentary. Oh well, Rock Lee is amazing, and I'm hoping this will get interesting (?) Oh well, bye!
