Chapter Thirteen
"I don't care how you do it!" A very angry Tsunade yelled at a team of ANBU. "Just find them and bring them back alive! All of them!"
One very tall and pretty stupid ANBU stepped forward slightly. "What about Uchiha?" he asked. Big mistake.
Tsunade swung around and punched him straight through the wall. "When I say all of them, what do you think I mean?!" She shouted, even though the ANBU was already out cold. "
"Any more questions," she asked, calmly turning to the other ANBU who were shaking slightly and looking very eager to leave. They shook their heads and at Tsunade's signal, quickly departed.
As soon as they were gone, Tsunade sank into a chair behind her desk. Her head went straight into her hands and she almost spilled the coffee that had sat on her desk for two days. It had been two days since Sasuke had left and five days since Sakura, Kakashi, and Naruto had disappeared. Tsunade had sent multiple teams of Shinobi to find them, but there were no results. Suddenly someone rapped at the door.
Tsunade lifted her head and muttered, "Come in."
Shizune walked in, holding a steaming cup of coffee. "Tsunade-sama?" she said, cautiously.
Tsunade forced a smile. "Yes, Shizune?" She replied.
"I brought you some coffee," her apprentice said, trying to be cheerful.
"Just set it on my desk."
"Hai!"
There was a long silence. Eventually Shizune realized Tsunade wasn't in a talking mood. With a few words of comfort she exited the room, leaving her sensei to her thoughts.
As soon as Shizune had gone Tsunade stood and opened the window blinds. It was gray and rainy outside in Konoha and she could see that no one was out in a day like this.
Without a warning, Tsunade whirled around and slammed her fist into the wall. It was so maddening that one of the best teams in Konoha had disappeared without a trace so suddenly. Everyone was so worried now. Ino, Tenten, and Lee had come to her office on several occasions, mad and upset, demanding that she try harder to get Sakura back. Kiba, Lee, Shikamaru, Neji, and even Gaara had barged into her office twice, furious that Naruto had gone missing. Gai and Kurenai had taken the matter in a more adult like way, but were still quite startled at the disappearance of their colleague. Even shy, quiet Hinata had come to plead that she bring back her beloved now-boyfriend Naruto and her close friend Sakura. Tsunade had considered picking a successor to listen to everyone's complaints.
Everyone looked up to the leader of the village to fix everything, but what was Tsunade supposed to do when she couldn't find a solution?
A/N- wow….i really don't have much to say about this chapter….it's a little off from the story, I know, but I just wanted to sort of show how things were going in Konoha before I start anything with Sasuke and Itachi. Hope you liked!
