"I guess you could call it that." Sakura said carrying the heavy bag full of random ingredients. "Say, Shizune, what are all these for, anyway?"
"Well, Tsunade-sama thought it was time you learned how to make solider pills." Shizune said, Tonton resting in her arms. "Making pills and anti-poisons is very difficult. It's important to get the basics down when you're young."
"So all this goes into solider pills?" She asked quietly. "That' some weird ingredients. Seaweed… antlers… even dandelions."
"Hai, but it works." Shizune said as they turned and began to walk up the stairs of the Hokage complex.
"Shizune…!" Tsunade yelled literally sliding out the door. "Go immediately and find out who waxed all the floors!"
"We don't wax the floors though!" Shizune said surprised. She took a step up and slid into Tsunade. "That's vegetable oil!"
"As done by Konoha's number two ninja!" Konohamaru said appearing above the door. Tsunade grabbed him and held him by his neck over the railing. "Admit to… my genius!"
Tsunade began constricting. Sakura shook her head. "Tsunade-sama! Let him go!" Tsunade dropped Konohamaru and he fell straight down landing on one foot then falling on his rear.
"Stay out of my offices you pesky little son of a…." Tsunade yelled cutting her sentence off. "Shizune, what are you up to? I need someone to get all the oil off my floor."
"I'm teaching Sakura today." Shizune said relieved.
"Nope," Shizune corrected flipping the antler's around, "only shave the base of the antlers. It's where all the healing qualities are, the tips can be used for different things."
"Alright." Sakura reclaimed the antlers as she began shaving them with a file. "Shizune-sama… Did Tsunade-sama teach you this way?"
Shizune lowered her head and shook it. "She poisoned me… non lethal of course, but poison all the same. It took three weeks to cure those warts… Never let her offer you a small golden candy."
"I'll keep that in mind."
