"Here we are." The strange man anounced.

They had been traveling for the past few hours in silence and the sudden anouncment startled Sasuke.

The man had introduced himself as Lee the night before and soon set up camp. In the morning he got up and began to walk to town with Sasuke following. Now they were here and Sasuke felt a small pang of unease as he tried not to think about how life was going to be from now on.

"I geuss before we start looking around you should take a visit to a doctor. Thats one nasty cut you've got on your arm."

Sasuke looked at his arm and shrugged, wincing a little when it stung.

"Hn." He answered.

Lee stared at him a second before turning towards a small building.

They walked inside and Lee took him to see a lady at the desk.

"Hey Sue, I found this young man on the side on the road yesterday, and it seems he's been in some sort of accident recently."

"What kind of accident?"

"Were not sure." He smiled lightly, "He can't seem to remember anything besides his first name."

"Hmph. That is a problem." She stated thoughtfully, "Well, we'll just have to see about those injures."

She got up and took them to a small waiting room in the back.

"Alright," She said smiling and pulling her blonde hair back."Lets see."

She took a look at his arm and her eyes widened slightly.

"Hmm that's going to need some stitches." She murmured.

She went and got the supplies and sat him down on the bed.

"So, whats your name?" She asked Sasuke.

"Sasuke."

"Can you tell me anything about your parents Sasuke?" She asked pulling out a small needle.

"No." Well that was the truth. When he was alive his father told him not to tell others outside of the clan about a family member. So, that meant he couldn't tell her anything about his parents. Right?

"Okay, now this is going to sting a little so hold still, alright?" She said after wiping around the wound.

"Hn." He nodded and averted his eyes from the needle.

When she was finally finished with the stitches she began to wrap it up.

Lee had left earlier to see if he could find Sasukes parents or anyone who knew him.

Now he came back in looking slightly dejected. He came over to the nurse and they walked out of the room.

Sasuke heard them talking quietly outside of the door and he had to strain his ears to catch what they were saying.

"No one knows of any kids by the name of Sasuke." Lee said.

"Hmm. Maybe he was traveling with some family and they were attacked by bandits. That would explain the cut on his arm."

"Maybe. But why can't he remember anything?"

"Sometimes after a truamatizing event the mind will force the memories away. He might remember someday but chances are we'll just worsen it if we try now, especially sence he's so young. It's probably better we don't push."

"What should we do with him?"

"I don't know Lee, maybe you could take him traveling with you?" She answered slightly kidding.

"You know I can't. Its dangerous on the road with a kid. What about the orphanage? I could just take him there."

"I"m not so sure thats a good idea. I mean...I just..." She took a deep breathe and let it out. " I know I should be giving you my proffesional opion but as your friend I know that niether of us wants to see a kid stuck in an orphanage when we could have found his family."

He looked away and rubbed his eyes.

"Alright, look, how about I take him with me for a while up the road. I'll ask anyone if they recognize him and if no one does I hand him over to an orphanage. Then they can report it and we'll have tryed our best. Sound good?"

"Not really. I get the feeling something bads going to happen." Sue said quietly.

"I know, but theres not much we can do, niether of us is in the position to be adopting a kid."

Sue yawned a little.

"Just wait until the stitches are out. That'll take about a week, just long enough for any one whos gonna come."

"And long enough for me to get some rest and supplies."

"Alright."
