Sakura felt so estatic!

Someone gave her a chance!

Her green eyes brightened just alittle more and a large smile was on her face. Someone would be willing to teach her. The young kunoichi couldn't wait for tommorow.

When she entered the apartment she wasn't suprised to find it empty and devoid of people. Her parents were merchants and would constantly travel the elemental nations to trade. They usually leave her with their next door neighbor, Nakamura-san, checking in every now and again to see if she was alright and alive.

Sakura enters the apartment and headed straight for the kitchen, she was famished after the long day of training with her team and Kurenai. The pinkette opened a cabinete and pulled out a cup of instant noodles. Normally she would of cooked something but Sakura was too tired and was really starving. She gets some hot water and waits.

Time passes by and the cup of instant noodles is ready to eat. She sits in the living room and began eating in silence. She didn't mind it though, she was used to it by now. She finishes her cup of instant noodles and she begins getting ready for bed.

Sakura wakes up one hour before five and began getring ready for her day with Kurenai-san. She ties her pink hair in a braid and decides to wear a black turtle neck and black ninja pants. She take's a sealing scroll and places all her necessary items inside. The jade-eyed girl makes sure to lock the door before she leaves for training ground 27.

On the way there she passes by two men, both with horrendous bowl cuts and the other one was younger and wore a green spandex suit. The two were walking around the village on hand stand. Sakura had to blink twice to make sure she wasn't seeing things.

When she arrives the training ground was empty. She places her scroll besides a tree and began streching. Minutes passed and a swirl of leaves puffed into existence in the middle of the training ground. Kurenai steps over to her with a bundle of scrolls on her hands.

"Good morning, Sakura" Kurenai said to her new student. The girl in question nods her head in greeting.

"First off, I want you to show me everything you can do." She said.

"Everything?" Sakura asked.

"Everything."

So she did, she started by doing the tree and water walking excercise then started casting low-ranked genjutsu. She showed her accuracy, speed, endurance, all of it. When she was finished, Kurenai was leaning under a tree her eyes closed and hands folded.

"Alright, firstly we need to work on your endurance, stregnth and accuracy. I want you to run five laps around the village, starting at the entrance to the Hokage monument," Kurenai says.

"After that do a few sit-ups and push-ups. Meditate and then we practice with your accuracy. When that's over we'll have a twenty-minute break. Lastly, head to the library and study on your genjutsu and ninjutsu. Understand?"

Sakura nodded, processing the information and before she could exit the training ground, Kurenai stopped her.

"Right before you head off, I want you to wear these." The blackette said before showing her four black bracelets.

"These are chakra weights. I want you to never take them off, unless your going to sleep or taking a shower. These will get heavier and heavier when you grow older." She said before giving them to Sakura.

The pinkette strapped them on and began exiting the training ground. As soon as she left Kurenai shunshined away.

Gai and his student Lee were both doing their daily morning training, jogging around the village and doing 100 laps. They were on their forty-sixth lap when Kurenai approched them.

"Greetings, Kurenai! How can I help you on his youthful day!!" Gai said (yelled) with a large smile on his face. The action earned him a few odd looks from the people awake on this ungodly hour.

"Good morning, Kurenai-san. I hope you are having a wonderful morning!" Lee greeted the older woman. Remeber, these two are standing on their hands, with eccentric outfits and yelling at five in the morning, when most of the population in Konoha was still sleeping. So it wasn't odd when Kurenai received a few strange looks thrown at her.

"Good morning to you two aswell, I came to speak with you if you were willing to help train my new student. Her name is Haruno Sakura." The blackette said.

"Why of course!! I would be more than delighted. But I must ask, what about her jonin sensei?" He asked confused.

Kurenai sighed. "Yes, but Kakashi is more inclined on training her other two teammate's, which leaves her to train herself."

Gai looked thoughtful for a moment before sighing as welll. "Alright then, I'll help train the young kunoichi later in the afternoon, Sakura and Lee could even be training partners!" He yelled excitedly.

Kurenai smiled. She suppose she knew what she was doing after all.
