Chapter 2
"She's doing a lot better than she was yesterday. I don't know if she'd still be alive if you guys didn't find her." Tsunade said leading team 7 to the woman's room. She opened the door, but before they let them in she told them, "Please try not to be so loud. We don't want her waking up just yet."She looked at Naruto.
"Why are you looking at me, Oba-san?" Naruto asked. Tsunade had a stress mark for a moment before they all walked in. The team surrounded at the end of the bed.
"Wow," Sakura said looking at the young women lying on the hospital bed before team 7. Kakashi could agree with Sakura's comment. The women didn't look anything like she did when they found her. Her skin was clean and clear, although it still had a bit of a blue tinge to it. Her once filthy hair was also now clean and framed her face in soft white-blond curls. Her majestic wings were now white and were tucked in nicely.
"She has a very interesting body structure. Asides from her wings, her bone density is lighter than an average female human her height and age. Not only that but her lung capacity is larger as well."
"How old do you think she is?" Sakura asked Tsunade.
"We're guessing she's in her early twenties, twenty-one years being the youngest. The oldest she could be is probably 23 or 24," Tsunade answered.
"She looks like an angel," Naruto said. Sasuke snorted at Naruto's comment. "What was that snort for teme!?" Naruto yelled.
Tsunade sighed and rubbed her temple with her forefinger and thumb. "Quiet down Naruto, if you speak so loudly, she might wake up…" Kakashi told Naruto, but his voice drifted away. The woman sat up slowly and her eyes scanned the room slowly as well. Kakashi had never seen blue eyes like hers anywhere. They were a bright crystal blue and all of the sudden the sleepy look they held was replaced with a look of panic. She bolted, or tried to bolt, out of bed and out through the door, but Kakashi held her back. She began to fight against him, "Off! Get Off!" she cried and she swung a punch to his right cheek and got him dead on. Kakashi was stunned for a moment and loosened his hold on her. She took this to her advantage and made for the door, but was blocked by Tsunade. Tsunade swung her around and after hitting a few pressure points the woman lost use of her legs and tumbled to ground. Tsunade then picked her up and put her back on the bed.
"Sakura!" Tsunade said.
"Hai!?" Sakura said, the surprising scene, that just occurred, was still sinking in.
"Go find one of the nurses and ask them for rope, paper and a pen."
"Hai!" Sakura rushed away.
Tsunade then turned her attention to the woman, who now had silent tears running down her face. "No more, no more…"the woman whimpered.
"No more what?" Tsunade asked.
"Tests. No more…"she whimpered. Just then Sakura rushed in with the rope, paper and pen.
"Here, Hokage-sama." She said handing the items over to Tsunade.
"Thank you," said Tsunade and began to tie the woman down to the bed, but the woman began to panic again.
"No more! No more!" she cried waving her arms wildly trying to get away. Tsunade struggled, although she could easily over power the young woman, Tsunade didn't want to do any harm on her. The young woman was a hospital patient after all.
"Kakashi, try calming her down while I tie her," Tsunade ordered.
"Calm her down? How?" Kakashi thought to himself. But he moved closer to the woman and patted her hair, "Shhh, it'll be fine. All we want to do is ask some questions. You're still healing and we need to keep you here in the hospital. You're safe here…"But the young woman would not calm down. Her wings began to flap from under her, making it even harder to tie her down.
"Let me try Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto said. He then moved Kakashi aside and stood closer to the woman. "Hey, onii-san! I'm Uzumaki Naruto and I'm going to become the Hokage, believe it! I promise we won't hurt you, so please bear with us a little longer, dattebayo!" Naruto told the woman in a loud voice with large grin on his face. Sasuke sighed at Naruto's strategy to calm the woman down and Sakura sighed. But much to everyone's surprise, the woman stopped moving and stared at Naruto. Tsunade seized her chance and tied her down to the bed.
"I can't believe that worked," Sakura said.
"She was probably surprised at how loud and obnoxious Naruto was talking," Sasuke said.
"Alright, I'm going to ask you questions now, okay?" Tsunade told the woman, but the woman didn't answer. Tsunade continued, "Do you remember who you are? Where you're from?" Tsunade's words were met with more silence. "Do you remember what happened to you? How did you end up in the forest?" More silence met her words, Tsunade began to ask another question, but the woman spoke.
"Tests, ex-experiments…" the woman said, her blue eyes were glossy.
"Hmmm…" Tsunade thought for a moment, "You all watch her for a bit. I'm going back to my office to grab something. You guys keep asking her questions. I'll be right back." Tsunade left the room and team 7 looked at the woman. The woman stared back at them, her eyes fearful that they would harm her.
Naruto smiled at the woman, "Don't worry! We won't hurt you! We're friends!"
The woman stared at Naruto, "Friends?"
"Yes, friends," Kakashi said in a calm voice, her eyes looked weary at him, "What's your name?"
The woman closed her eyes, trying to remember her name, but after a moment or two she opened them and looked at Kakashi, "I don't know."
"Do you know what you are?" Naruto asked.
"…Aren't I like you?"The woman asked.
"You have wings sticking out of your back," Sasuke said, "That's not exactly normal."
The woman blinked, "What's normal?"
"Well, normally, humans don't have wings on their backs," Sakura said kindly. And as they asked more questions, Kakashi began to think that this girl had amnesia or something. She didn't remember who she was or what some things are, like what a family was, and what she did remember she couldn't describe or she remember clearly, like when Naruto asked her if she could remember anything at all, she said she remembers needles, test tubes, and a man with black hair and strange eyes. Tsunade finally came back, with a portfolio in her hands.
"Did you get any information from her?" Tsunade asked Kakashi.
Kakashi shook his head, "Not much. She doesn't seem to remember anything about her past and all she can remember are needles, test tubes and a man with black hair and strange looking eyes. I'm beginning to think that she has amnesia…"
"What's amnesia?" the woman asked. "Is it bad?"
"Amnesia is when a person loses his or her memories, so yes it is bad," Tsunade explained.
"Oh," the woman said looking down into her lap.
"We should give her a name!" Naruto said.
"Tenshii," Sasuke said. Everyone in the room sweat dropped.
"So uncreative," Kakashi voiced everyone's thoughts. Sasuke just shrugged in an uncaring way.
"Let's name her Karasu," Naruto suggested.
"Why?" Sasuke asked.
"That way she and Kakashi can be a pair, you know since their names have something to do with each other. This could be Kakashi's last chance to get a girlfriend; he isn't getting any younger, dattebayo," Naruto said. Everyone sweat dropped once again.
"Why do you make me sound so old?" Kakashi asked.
"What about Chihiro? That's a pretty name," Sakura suggested.
"Yeah! We can call her Chi-chan for short!" Naruto agreed with Sakura.
"Isn't the term "chi" referred to as blood?" Sasuke asked.
"Shut up teme!"
Tsunade coughed, "Anyways, what would you like to be called?" She directed her question to the young woman.
"I like Chihiro," the woman said.
"Alright Chihiro, do you know who this is?" Tsunade asked as she showed Chihiro a picture of a pale man with black hair and snake-like eyes. Chihiro's eyes widen at the picture and she slowly nodded her head. Tears began to fill up her eyes; she was probably remembering her horrible experiences with that man.
"It seems at one point in her life, she was with Orochimaru. I don't know if she was created by him or if she was found by him. Either way, for her protection and the protection of others, she will be staying her in Konoha, where we can keep an eye on her," Tsunade decided.
"So, who's going to watch her?"Kakashi asked, but he already had an idea who would end up watching Chihiro.
"You and your team will keep an eye on her. You'll still be getting other missions as well. She will accompany you all on D and maybe C missions, if she's able to handle them, which she probably will since she was of interest to Orochimaru."
"But, after she gets out of the hospital, where will she stay?"Naruto asked.
"I'm sure Kakashi has room for another person to live in his home," Tsunade answered Naruto's question.
"Eh?" Everyone, but Sasuke, said.
"I trust Kakashi won't do anything…inappropriate towards Chihiro-san," Tsunade said calmly.
"Yeah right! He's always reading those pervy books! Who knows what he'll do…" Naruto started to shout, but Sakura cover Naruto's mouth.
"He didn't mean to insult you Kakashi-sensei!" Sakura said with an apologetic smile, and then glared at Naruto, "Right Naruto?" All Kakashi did was sigh.
One week later Chihiro was released from the hospital. Tsunade had given her a tight white tank top and a mid-calf long white skirt to wear. Chihiro had made good friends with just about everyone, except for Kakashi. When it was time for Chihiro to go live with Kakashi, he practically had to drag her away.
"What's with you?" Kakashi asked her after successfully dragging Chihiro to his apartment, "There's no need to get all worked up over nothing. You're safe here in the village."
"You're lying," said Chihiro from a far corner, "That's what he always told me every time he took me to see Orochimaru. He said everything will be fine, but he was wrong. Your hair colors are the same, you're related to him aren't you!?" Chihiro accused and Kakashi sweat dropped at her reasoning.
"Just because two people have similar hair color doesn't mean they're related," Kakashi said.
"Oh…really?" Chihiro asked.
"Yeah."
"How do I know you aren't lying?"
"You'll just have to trust me, now get up," Kakashi had walked over to her corner and offered her his hand. She looked at it and back at him.
"'Kay." And he pulled her to her feet.
"Alright, let's see. You probably should change for bed," said Kakashi. He went to the closet and pulled out a big shirt and went back to the living room and gave it to her, "Here change into this."
"Okay," she said and began to take off the shirt Tsunade gave her.
"Not here! Go in the room and change!" Kakashi said hurriedly and pushed her into his bedroom and closed the door.
10 minutes later, while Kakashi was done making dinner (rice and pork) he heard Chihiro cry out from his bedroom, "Kakashi!"
He raced through to the bedroom, "What?" he asked alarm and looked down at Chihiro who was on the floor. "What are you doing Chihiro?"
"Kakashi, I was trying to take my shirt off, but I got stuck. Take it off," Chihiro said trying to take her arms out of her shirt but failing. Kakashi looked at her, "She's kidding, right?" he thought to himself. "Kakashi! What if I'm stuck like this forever?"
Kakashi sighed and thanked God silently that his mask was hiding his rising blush and he crouched down to take off her shirt. "Do you need help putting on the shirt I gave you?"
She reached for the oversized shirt and examined it a bit, "So, my head goes through the big hole right?"
"Yeah…" Kakashi said and watched her put it on. "Good, now come on and eat."
