DISCLAIMER: I DON'T own anything of Naruto (Just much of my Sakura merchandise, books and DVDs 🌸🌸🌸🌸)

First Author's Note: I know, besides a very usual slow start. With so many Naruto and Miraculous works unfinished what am I do?! Well simple: WRITING WHAT FEELS RIGHT TO ME! This concept came to me based on physical appearance. A great 'What If' I haven't ever read here. It spoke volumes to me, as a sweet change.

Second Author's Note: This takes place around 'Tsunade's Warning: Ninja No More!' - Season 2 Third Author's Note is at TBC. . .


Tsunade watched Naruto silently walk out the hospital room. His blue eyes down cast did draw her attention.

'Being consider it. He does deeply love this little kunoichi, hmmmm.'

Her honey brown eyes side glance the pinkette still tearfully hugging an unresponsive Sasuke Uchiha. The newly appointed 5th Hokage let's herself out for minute.

Once in the hallway, she finds (not surprising) Naruto out of sight. Yet still feeling his chakra, she smiles. Turning to Shizune, whom stood silently facing the window outside the hospital door. Tsunade can feel let alone see the ravenette's tense demeanor.

"Shizune."

She fully turns to the beautiful strong blonde. Her ebony eyes hold deeply suppressed pain, wise honey-brown glare at her slightly.

"Go inside. You need to tell him, now."

Tsunade practically orders Shizune. Shizune shoots her head up behind Tsunade at the closed door. Lowers her head in defeat. When she hears Tsunade's black heeled sandals click on the tiled floor, her right red nail polished hand rests on the stressed ravenette's left shoulder.

"M'Lady, I can't."

"Best for his mental health, that you do."

Shizune again glances at the closed hospital door. Tsunade "slightly" pushes her in front of it. Ebony eyes stare down at the door handle, Tsunade sighs, her red nail polished left hand squeezes Shizune's left shoulder blade. Grimacing from the 5th Hokage's strength, her trusty assistant opens the door ssslloowwwllyyy.

Sakura stops her mid-sentence in trying to get Sasuke to talk. To find the 5th Hokage's assistant. The ravenette staring at Sasuke as if she's seeing a ghost. Walking a bit closer, his cautious ebony eyes meet her own hopeful ones.

"Sakura, please give us a moment."

The pinkette's emerald green eyes turn to Sasuke. The boy waves a hand dismissively, Sakura gives him a sad look but raises out her chair leaving the room. Once the door is closed, Sasuke stares at Shizune. She stares back trembling inside, at the look in his eyes.

"Sasuke, I'm sorry you got injured by him."

At that statement, she sees Sasuke's hands clench the white sheets. She sighs glancing away from him. Still inwardly debating, when he breaks her silence.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

Shizune gasps at his directness. Yet it doesn't truly surprise her. 'Fugaku never beat around the bush. The clan always came first.'

Shizune turns back to Sasuke, finding him still staring at her. Close to threatening, she outwardly smiles unafraid.

"Sasuke. . . I'm sorry for what your life as turned into. I'm here now, to tell you the truth."

Sasuke glares at her now, fists shaking. She could feel his chakra spike.

"Sasuke. . . my name is Shizune. I'm your. . ."

She gently places her right hand over his left shaking fist. For reasons he himself can't decipher, it calms him down. Both ebony eyes intensely stare at one another.

". . .mother."
