Sadly I don't own any Naruto characters, if I did the akatsuki'd still be alive and I'd know who Tobi really is...


Sasha quickly followed Jin. The woman's panic was move then enough to get her feet moving as fast as they were, even if she was still partly asleep. But Jin never panicked, something was definitely wrong. Was it the children? Old man Shizu? His heart was never in the best of conditions.

Adrenaline pumped through her system, making feet move faster, all sense of being tired was now gone. As the clinic came into view she saw no signs of panic, no public commotion. Then what the hell? Sasha looked over to Jin, who had slowed down as well. "What exactly is going on Jin?"

"Well…" She muttered, slightly out of breath, "These two men came in. One is extremely wounded. He will not survive the night unless you treat him now Dr. Kochi!"

Burns huh? Sasha grimaced as she had a horrible time treating burns. Her parents, it was always unknown to her which one gifted her with the ability, gave her an almost indestructible body. She could almost any wound; however fire and lighting attacks were always the hardest to recover from. It was the same with healing people. Burns of any kind always took double her time and energy to fix. It looked like she was going to have a long night.

As the two women pushed their way through the double doors of the clinic the man sitting in the waiting room rose to his full height. The women didn't slow their brisk pace, Jin now taking the lead to guide the doctor into the room they had put the wounded man.

Sasha glanced back at the man following them. "Are you the one who brought him in?" She asked in a commanding tone. Sasha had to admit that the man's height intimidated her. At a measly 5'2, the doctor wasn't very tall, and the man keeping pace with them had to be at least 6'0.

"Yeah," Was the gravely reply, the man had a deep voice as well but seeing how tall he was it didn't surprise her. "We were training a few miles away. He wasn't able to dodge a blast in time and well, I didn't hold back. He has severe burns on his left arm and leg as well as his entire torso. The worst of the burn seems to be centered just above his hip."

Sasha spared the man a quick glance. He had knowledge of medicine, did he? Well, for how downright brutish he looked that did surprise her. "Wait, you hurt him on purpose?" Sasha growled. "How could you hurt your own partner that badly?" All the man did was shrug. His green and red eyes looked bored. Well, with that mask covering his entire head, expect for his eyes, his expression wasn't very easy to read.

The young doctor shook her head as she pushed through the door leading to her newest patient's room. What she saw made her gasp. She had never seen burns as bad as these were, and he was still alive? How could his partner have done something like this to him? How? Anger flowed through her veins as she looked down on the man lying on the only bed they had at the clinic.

"Thank you for drugging him Jin," Sasha said as she moved into the room and put on her gloves.

Jin shook her head. "He's not drugged doctor. He was already unconscious when he was brought in. I didn't want to give him anything until you've seen to him. "

"Well, thank you anyways." Sasha muttered as she turned to examine the young man on the bed. "Now, I need to begin my work before your partner dies. I hope you know that I will be talking to you afterwards sir. No sane man should do this to his own partner."

"Heh." Was the gruff start to his reply. "I look forward to it doctor." He left along with Jin, leaving Sasha alone with the young man with silver hair. Note to self: remind self to ask the tall one about the stitches and if he'd like help healing them. Even if he was an ass-hole nobody deserved to be in pain. She shook her head, clearing it of all thoughts except those of her newest project.

The just as the dark skinned man had said, his friend had received serious burns to his left arm and leg. The burn reached all the way down to just below his knee and was a bright red. His tattered clothes lay on him in tatters, which was quickly fixed by disposing the cloth. She pulled a small hospital blanket over his pelvis to give him as much dignity he could have and still allow her to work. As the Dr. looked him over she confirmed what the other man had said. The worst of the burn was centered right above his hip. It was so bad that it burned all the way through his muscles, allowing her a nice view of the organs underneath.

"You poor man," Sasha muttered as she examined the wound, "It's not a wonder as to why you passed out so quickly. This would be an agonizing wound" She'd be the one to know. Due to her bodies extreme sensitivity to fire, just sticking her hand to a hot pan would leave her in pain for week. She didn't even know if she'd be able to survive a wound like this herself.

Walking over to the cabinets on the wall she went over and pulled out a tube of burn cream and placed it next to the table that was placed by the bed. Next, she filled a medium sized bowl filled with warm water, placing it next to the tube of ointment. She looked back to the door to check to make sure that no one was coming. When she was positive that no one was coming she took off her gloves and threw them away.

"Now sir, how about we look to getting you fixed up." Sasha took the tube of ointment and squeezed it all into the bowl. Holding her hands over the bowl she began waving them slowly back and forth, and curiously the mixture began to follow her movements.

Ever since she was a little girl she had the ability to control water. It wasn't a jutsu or kekki genkkai per say, at least she never considered it one since she never had to use hand signs. It was her gift and it took her until a few years ago that she could use it to help people. The girl worked and worked until she could control more than just water, eventually she learned she could manipulate blood, ointments and other liquids. It was hard work to train herself to get this far with her abilities, but it's all been worth it. Now, she's happier than ever to have her power, otherwise she didn't know if her patient would live.

When the mixture was perfectly mixed together she placed her hands into it and turned around to begin rubbing it into the wound were it was at its worst, but she stopped. The patient was sweating. She shook her head. Why are you surprised doctor? He was burned; of course he'd be sweating…

Immediately going to work she began to rub the concoction into the wound and used it to help her nature healing with the burn. She began to recreate the parts of missing organs, missing muscles and tendons, veins and arteries. It was slow agonizing work and it took her a few hours before she was able to seal and heal the top skin layer of his abdomen. She used the clean area of her arm to wipe her brow. Gods did that take a lot out of me. Luckily I'm almost done. Getting coating her hands in more ointment she went back to work.

Three hours, and an ointment mixture mixed with plenty of blood later his left sided perfectly mirrored his right. Well, now that he was no longer dying of 3rd degree burns and her work was done she realized how beautiful he was. Porcelain skin, silver hair, nice toned muscles of a man always in motion and a nice…package. A small blush reached the doctors cheeks as she covered him with the blanket. I'll need to get him some more clothes. I think I have some… She turned around and looked through the cabinets. Ahah! These will fit… I think. She pulled out the dark blue pants and white tee from the cabinets and placed them on the table.

She looked up and noticed something that she didn't before. He had the most beautiful eyes she'd ever seen. Wait… Eyes? He shouldn't be awake yet! She rushed over and ran a pen light over his eyes. When she was certain he was awake she rushed over to her cabinet and pulled out a syringe.

"I'm sorry sir." She muttered out, sweat plastered her bangs to her forehead showing just how much the operation took out of her. "But you shouldn't be awake yet. I'm going to-"

The air was knocked out of her lungs as she was forced against the cabinet's counter. "Man, fuck that hurt. You were taking so long that I almost grabbed you while you was working. But I didn't feel like dealing with the fucking shit Kakuzu would have given me if you hadn't healed first." Sasha tried to look back but a forceful hand kept her head in place. "I don't think so bitch. I didn't get burned all to hell for you ruin anything now."

The man grabbed the syringe out of her hand and jabbed it into her shoulder, injecting the clear liquid into her system. The pressure from behind her receded and she began to fall backwards. Not having the balance to keep herself upright she fell over to the floor.

"Ha! Dumb bitch, wasting so much energy." Came a cackle from the man standing above her. His mouth was stretched into a wide, crazy grin. As her eyes began to lose focus the man kneeled down next to her. "Well, good thing for me though, huh! Less hassle you give me, the less I have to deal with. Now that dumb fucker should be happy."

He put a hand to his mouth and turned towards the door. "Oi! Kakuzu! I got the dumb bitch, can we leave now?"

The strangled scream of Nurse Jin was the last thing Sasha heard before she fell unconscious.


Ten minutes earlier

Kakuzu sat in the waiting room slightly irritated. How long was this going to take? Maybe the girl's healing skills is not as good as Pein said it was. Damn, he's been sitting in this damn chair for hours, staring at that damn clock for hours, listening to that damn elevator-like music. If this goes on any longer he would not be able to keep his hands to himself and someone was going to die.

The Nurse at the desk was also irritating the piss out of him. She kept throwing him nervous looks when she thought he wasn't looking. He did his best to ignore it. He assumed that she'd been living in this town for her entire life and if that was the case she probably couldn't except that fact that he'd damaged his partner that badly. Heh, stupid broad.

He heard a slight commotion in the back room and smiled behind the mask that covered his face. Hidan must be done then, good, now they could head out.

The nurse behind the desk rose and looked down the hallway. Upon hearing nothing else she hesitantly walked back to her desk and sat down and nervous look on her face. Kakuzu rolled his eyes as she continued to look back towards the hallway. She doesn't have faith that her friend can handle herself, how cute.

Kakuzu stood up and looked down at the older woman behind the desk. He rolled his shoulders, glad at the chance to remove his cloak. He thought that it would be better on them if they'd removed the black and red material, definitely easier to mover around without having anyone questioning them.

As soon as the nurse noticed him stand she immediately stood as well. Defensive much? "You need to sit down sir. The doctor should be out soon. These things take time."

"I'm not sitting down." Kakuzu growled at the woman.

"Sit down or I'm going to-" The nurse croaked.

"Do what?" Kakuzu interrupted. "Call for help? I bet in a small town like this, nobody is even awake at this time in the morning. And I don't think there is going to be anyone here at a high enough caliber to be able to face me."

The look on her face was priceless as a few of Kakuzu's tentacles began to itch their way out of his arm. He grinned under the mask as a voice pierced the silent building. "Oi! Kakuzu! I got the dumb bitch, can we leave now!"

"Yes, Hidan. We can leave now." Kakuzu muttered as his tentacles rushed from his arm. The nurse screamed as they rushed at her. She attempted to drive behind the desk but was grabbed by the black appendages. He lifted her easily into the air. "Thanks for all your time Nurse, but I'm afraid it's time for us to leave."

Just as the words left his mouth Hidan came out of the back with the young doctor slung over his shoulder. As Kakuzu looked him over he had to admit that he was impressed. Hidan's burn was completely gone. His left side looked exactly like his right, maybe even slightly healthier. Well, then Pein was right, the girl's healing will come in handy. He looked back over to the woman and ended her life quickly, impaling her though the head with four of his tentacles.

Hidan raised an eyebrow. "What happened to not killing anyone and making this discrete?"

"Coming from you that's rich Hidan, besides look outside." Kakuzu pointed his head out towards the lobby window. The sun just started to rise over the horizon. "People are starting to wake up. In a small town like this how people are going to notice you carrying out their prized physician?" Hidan started to cut in but was cut off again. "You won't make to the center of town before someone notices and makes a commotion. Besides, it looks like we have a guest."

They looked up as a young man with large rimmed glassed walked through the door. He was dressed in a lab coat, he looked up with wide eyes when he seen the two unknown men in the lobby of the office. Upon seeing the doctor slung over Hidan's shoulder he dropped his clipboard and began to shake.

"W-wh-who a-are you people!" The nurse stuttered out.

"Hn." Kakuzu muttered boredly pulling the Earth Grudge back into his body. "Hidan, do you want this one? I'll take the woman watching through the glass."

The other thing that was heard before the screaming started was Hidan's manic laughter.
