Back to the Start;

Lee and Naruto approached the restaurant where Lee had been treated to sushi by Tenten or rather be what was left of the restaurant, there were two broken windows, a table outside the windows and the tell-tale signs of a bar room brawl, the two ninjas ignored this however,

"I had just left after my meal," said Lee, retracing his footsteps "and then I went back to my apartment" neither of the two liked the idea of this as there was no telling if Sakura was still there,

"Are you sure you can't remember anything after that?" queried Naruto, the hair on the back of his neck seemed to be standing on end, something was wrong,

"Positive…wait…wait I'm getting something" he closed his eyes and tried to remember, "I remember…hey what's that rumbling sound?" Lee opened his eyes and looked around, Naruto then tapped his companion on the shoulder and pointed to the end of the street, there was a cloud of dust and Naruto and Lee didn't even have to look to see who it was.

Sakura was haring towards the two of them at breakneck speed with what looked like a thick stick of wood with something attached to it and a towel wrapped round herself, the two looked at each other and without a single word were off down the road, through the promenade and past a pretty young florist, Lee then doubled back and held out his hand,

"Hi I'm Lee" the girl then looked at her arm, she had a tattoo,

"Lee?" Lee then looked at his own tattoo,

"Lea?" he looked at her only to be yanked away by his orange clad companion and dragged through the village and into a small back alley behind a row of houses,

"We have GOT to be more careful she could be any…WAOOAHHH!" A fist smashing it's way through the fence behind them interrupted Naruto abruptly, a second fist erupted behind Lee and claimed him as well, however behind the wall Naruto was getting an even bigger headache then he had started out with and Lee was receiving a fistful of…well fist, eventually she stopped, gripped Naruto by the collar and shook him violently. Lee took this time to try and escape only to be dragged back into the commotion by the female who was seemingly tearing Naruto apart with her bare hands,

"I'M GONNA TEAR YOU APART WITH MY BARE HANDS AND YOUR NEXT LEE! " bellowed Sakura, everyone in a ten block radius of the yard they were in heard this and someone swore loudly this someone being Naruto, Sakura then stopped her psychotic beating and looked Naruto straight in the face,

"Why…the hell…did u take me on your…outing last night, only to have me end up in Lee's bath, with no clothes on and A BOTTLE OF VODKA!" it was amazing how easily she got agitated, she looked it too her face was red and her eyes didn't seem to have any pupils,

"Well that's kind of a funny story see…" his explanation was cut short by Sakura hurling his body across half the village; she didn't bother to ask Lee anything and flung him the same way. Naruto had a particularly nasty landing in a thorn bush; he managed to pick his way out only to be landed on by Lee, there was a nauseating crunch,

"Ouch…I think I've broken something" Lee looked behind him to see the branch he had heard braking and a dazed Naruto lying on the floor with his tongue flopped out on the grass and a torn sleeve, Lee rolled his eyes and wondered why his friend always wanted to lye about on the job, Lee got out of the bush and wondered what part of the village they were in, it then came to Lee's attention that they were in a certain someone's back garden, Naruto got up towards Lee and came to his side,

"Dude where are we…wait this looks like…" it then became clear whose garden they were in, she came out and glared at them both they couldn't however look back as her overwhelming chest obscured their view and their voices, Tsunade was well aware of this and decided to ask them why they were in her back garden,

"Well…what are you two doing in my garden…and how do you propose I regrow my bush" the two boys faces went red with laughter, Tsunade leant over giving the two one large view of her chest, an annoyed look crossed her face,

"Well…how am I going to regrow my bush" Lee was the one who spoke up but to no avail, he was still reeling from the fall and his lack of view and Naruto was no better, his eyes watered and his face was redder then it could ever be, then Lee burst out with the whole truth,

"I was really miserable after yesterday because I think Gai sensei is punishing me for some reason and then Tenten took me out for sushi and I was really sad so I went home but then I went out and I think I got really drunk because I woke up with a traffic cone in my bed and Naruto on my floor with Sakura's dress and under clothes but it turned out that Sakura was in my bath not wearing anything and then she woke up but we had ran out by this time and then we went to he bar where I had sushi to retrace my footsteps but then Sakura chased us into an alley and beat us up and threw us into your bush and then you came out and started talking" Lee gasped for breath after this long speech and Tsunade had to take a bit of time to take this all in, she then suggested something,

"Let me go into your subconscious, I'll find out what happened" she rolled up her sleeves and the two friends backed away, they didn't like the thought of someone inside their heads,

"We're fine thank you" said Lee backing away further, "besides it's such a lovely day I think I'll leave over your fence" Lee then scrambled over the wooden barricade and ran, leaving Naruto to deal with Tsunade. Naruto came out later with his hair standing on end and his headband askew, Lee was waiting for him outside Tsunade's house, Naruto saw him, went over and said, quite plainly,

"Don't ask".
