The young, heart broken Kunoichi opened her eyes. She was no longer in Konoha. So that was it then, no way to back.
Bright light shined around her. It appeared she was in a metal room, not unlike the interrogation rooms of her village. She shifted her gaze from the ceiling almost immediately and noticed two other presences in the small room.
She turned towards what she assumed to be her employers.
The tallest by far was a man with a trench coat similar to her own. He had large scars running across the side of his face near his eyes. One coal black eye looked at her with a calm collection and mild interest the other was covered with an eye patch. The man next to him was dressed in a very formal suit and tie, he seemed very cautious and rigid towards her presence. She took notice of the weapon that rested in a holder attached to his hip. A gun.
Her eyes flicked back up to the large man, whom she assumed to be the shorter, pale man's superior.
"You are the Medic we requested?"
she gave a curt nod before carefully choosing her words to emphasise her professionalism, hoping to leave a good impression on her new "Boss" as the people of this dimension called it.
"Yes Sir. Sakura Haruno, Medic at your service. "
The man looked her up and down. The well dressed man seemed to loosen up slightly to here she wasnt a threat
"Well Miss Haruno, I am Director Fury, and this is agent Coulsen. You are now in a temporary base of shield operations. I am positive that you have been briefed about your duties while here, am I correct?"
"I was given basic information Director Sir. I only aware of my medical duties."
She brushed back a strand of pink hair.
"Miss Haruno, we are currently facing a mass possibility of war and it is esculating daily. It is imperitave that you be completely informed of the threat that the Avengers will be fighting against. You were given files explaining basic imformation on the people you will be healing. Coulsen will fill you in on the rest. I have work to do. If you will exuse me Miss Haruno, I expect to see you at Eleven.
She looked down at her watch, it read that it was only seven, apparently when she went through the transition it took seven hours for her to reach her destination in what actually felt like seconds. Trippy. She looked over to Coulsen who clearly was still very cautious of her as fury left the room. She marvled at how such a large, tall man could walk so quietly with such grace. It seemed exceptionally odd, considering he was wearing steal toed combat boots. He seemed like the kind of guy who would kick puppies when no one was looking.
The air in the room was frigid and saturated with Awkward. She attempted to "Break the ice"
She took off her serious facade, and turned to the man who was now seated at the table.
She smiled a warm smile. "It is a pleasure to meet you Agent Coulsen"
She stuck out a gloved hand. He looked at it questionably and cautiously, he hesitated but shook it any way, muttering a faint "likewise, miss haruno. " he smiled back.
The conversation was smooth sailing from then on as he spent two hours to pain stakeningly explain the situation, involving the tesseract and the god of Mishcief, Loki, whom currently seemed to be enemy number one, and went into details about the avengers not on the files. He seemed to gush over Captain America, and proceeded to show her his collection of vintage cards. Creepy.
She smoothed out her sleeve.
She had to admit, he explained things really well, he seemed nice enough , He reminded her alot of Ebisu in that way. She had gone to him many times when she was having trouble with her lessons.
She snapped out of her thoughts when she heard the the cement floor screach as Coulsen pushed his chair out from the table and proceeded to get up.
"I will be taking you to your room where you may drop off your things."
He turned back to look at her as he shut the door behind them. She didnt have much of anything with her. Actually, barely anything. The only thing he saw her carry was a tan messenger bag, and that appeared to have barely anything in it.
She shifted, noticing his staring, he turned around and refused to look back until they reached their destination. The were walking rather quickly form her standards. Her short stride made her take twice the amount of steps as Agent Coulsen did. As they walked she worked to memorise the signs and create a basic lay out of the floor- plan in her mind. They made a sharp turn in the hallway and continued until they reached an elevator.
They should sue the interior designer, the whole interior of this base was incredibly bleak. The entire building reminded her of a hospital. Most of the walls were either metal or a Sterile white. The whole base was drab. But she had to concead that it had an incredible view, the based through a another hall way and towards what she assumed to be the center of the ship. She could feel a larger number of faint chakra signatures there. Coulsen opened two very wide very impending doors by swiping his hand across a motion sensor monitor. Cool trick. The doors swung open in a slow and slightly climatic fashion.
This room, from what she could tell, appeared to be the center hub of the structure, computer after computer lined the room and director Fury stood in the center looking out of the large plexy glass windows.
They cut through the center of the room and he turned to greet them.
"Miss Haruno, I understand that you have been completely briefed on the gravity of this situation?"
it was honestly more of a statement than a question.
"Yes Sir"
He looked her over again,
"Good. If you will please follow me Miss Haruno." Oooooh yay. more hallways. great.
As they walked both Fury and Coulsen slowed their pace. She shuffled behind them looking around until they finally stopped.
"Haruno" she noticed he dropped the miss this time." I have read your complete file and i must say your abilities are quite extensive. I was also informed of your psycholigical problem, and other skills. We will be testing both your ability to fight and heal in this exercise before allowing you to meet your team mates. "
She had been itching for a good fight for quite a while. She wondered what they could possibly pin- her against. They opened another door into a huge gymnasium. Training ground? She looked around. The walls and ground were all heavily fortified and she could feel the huge amounts of steel beneath the surface of the walls. She craned her head upward to see that Director Fury and Agent Coulsen had left her in the room and were now staring at her from a glass window in the middle of the wall.
The gruff, raspy voice of the director rang across the intercom before completely switching over to the room.
A large group stuffed dummies appeared around the room.
"Keep the White dummies safe. Destroy any red dummies "
That was harder than it sounded. She wasnt allow to touch white dummies, and air sensor protect the red dummies with high intensity lasers.
A light above the ground shot uo and a huge machine gun stood in the center of the room on a robot arm to track her movement.
"level 19. Go" then there was a click and the intercom ended its message.
She grabbed to Kunai from her vest and began to deflect projectiles being thrown from the walls. There were five dummies she had to protect over all. One in each corner of the room and one on the high ceiling directly above the robot arm. She moved quickly to both deflect projectiles and create five shadow clones. The clones moved at an super human speed to guard their indivual dummies. The original sakura reached in her pack and threw multiple shuriken into the walls to disable the flying projectiles.
She jumped into the air with an easy, cat like grace and twisted to avoid a rain of bullets. She flipped off of one of the wall guns and to the base of the robotic arm. She grasped the robot arm and snapped it in half like a toothpick, against her force. She held the giant arm with one hand while she slicked her hair out of her eyes with the other. She then used the arm as a primative club to hit any remaining guns on the walls. Flames had engulfed the center of the room. The flames made it impossible for her to touch the floor and were rising . She flipped herself again and onto the side of the wall. From this position she stood up and ran across the side of the wall and towards the ceiling. Once hanging on the ceiling she closed her eyes and breathed while creating a small handsign.
She opened her eyes and released a large wave of chakra from her body that immediatley killed the flames without harming the dummies themselves. With the flames extinguished and the guns destroyed she released her chakra hold on the ceiling the then flipped off of the ceiling and back on to the ground gracefully landing on her feet.
To say that Coulsen was suprised was an understatement. She seemed so nice. Who knew she was that powerful.
In all honesty he had been skeptical of her usefulness when he first saw her. She was an extremely short young female with pink hair and he had just witnessed her completely annialate a level that was supposed to be impossible for anyone, super human or not to complete. She had done it with out even breaking a sweat. It only took her five minutes to destroy millions of dollars worth of weapons. He thought fury would have been angry about that.
He didnt seem angry at all. Actually, he was smiling. He had read her file and he had known that she was a complete set as both a medic and combat ninja. But hell how did they train these people? This girl far beat his expectations in combat. She could serve as a valuable trump card in this battle.
Sakura walked back to the door she had origionally entered from. Coulsen and the Director where waiting for her in the corridor.
"Haruno. you exceded my expectations. You are highly profficient in combat and battle. I ask that when you meet your team mates that you keep all of your abilities , except for healing out of their knowledge. Our enemy loki has a way of getting into the heads of people. The less they know about your skill, the less he will. Only use it if absolutely necessary. "
"Yes Sir."
"Your next asssessment will be based off of your ability as a medic. Please follow me. "
after that last lovely comment she had to admit she was feeling rather smug. She was a valuable commidity around here.
They took her to a glass room concealed in the center by curtains. she heard a muffled groan and immediatley went into "medic mode". from what she could tell the patient was a female in her early thirties with a crushed leg and left arm.
"This is agent Maria Hill. While she was chasing Loki and his allies when she got caught in the collapse of out original base. I trust you can heal her. "
Sakura looked at the pained woman before placing her gloved hands across her leg the woman flinched as she unbandaged her leg. She had lost a lot of blood and the nerve ending where completely sliced.
She laid her hands on the unbandaged leg while focusing on pushing her chakra into the limb and smowly reparing the cells. Her hands began to glow as she furrowed her brow in concentration and the deep gashes and crushed bone healed themselves. She treated the womans arm the same way. The whole process took about ten minutes. She looked at the woman and prompted her to rest before turning back to both Fury and Coulsen. Both were equally impressed with her skill. There had to be a catch. Maybe she was a psycho? No one had that much power with out an unfortunate drawback.
Oh how right they were.
Alrighty then theres my newest update, hope everyone likes. She will be meeting the avengers in the next chapter. i wanted to focus on getting skill level and technical things out of the way as well as her basic relationship with coulsen and fury.
i tried to keep them all in character...and woot! badass sakura!
please review!
