Noon was always the most quiet times in the Konoha hospital. Most patiens arrived in the morning, and those who would be leaving, did it in the afternoon. During these calm hours, the medics could take a breath, and relax as they worked. Of cause not all noon`s were so calm, for example yesterday Mrs. Imari had awoken half the hospital with her crying. After weeks of waiting and searching, her husband`s body had been found a short walk from the gates, buried underneath a large tree. It had been found by the Haruno siblings, who`s mother was the medic in charge of Mrs. Imari. The younger sister had been the one to first find the body, but she had not spoken a word to anyone about it. Mr. Imari`s body had been to decayed for any evidence to be found, so the case had already been closed. The older brother resumed his work as a ANBU, and the sister went back to work in the hospital already the next day.

"Your sure everything is alright, Kamira-chan? The Imari couple was always so friendly with your family", "I`m alright, Ensei-san, truly! Its helps to focus on the work..". Kamira lightly tapped the wood plate holding her sheets of paper together, he was the sixth person to ask today. She understood why they were worried about her, but Mrs. Imari should get the attention, not herself. "I see. Well, take care and say hello to your father from me". Her blue eyes followed him as he went around the nearby corner, probably heading for the break room.[color=violet]All this on just one day?. She tugged the wooden plate against her chest, feeling the stress lift itself as minor pain emerged from her burst. Why did you have to leave so sudden, baka Aki-senpai!". Before her thoughts began to swirl up, a panicked female voice sounded. "Haruno-san, please go to room B-2 and make ready for a patient!", "Who is the patient? What`s wrong?", "Its Hokage-sama, he was found collapsed in his office..".

"Uchiha Shihouin, age 22. Height: 6.5 feet. Weight: 180 lbs". Going by the things written on the sheet, he seemed to be in excellent condition. The only thing she could really spot, was his tendency to train a lot. Could you overtrain yourself and collasp somewere else hours later? Well it had occured before. "Kumori-san, based on from what ive read, his body seems to be in good condition. Were has he been lately? It could be a virus..". Kumori, who was standing 6.1, looked down at the pink haired medic sitting next to the bed. "Hokage-sama has mainly been training in the forest of death. He recently caught a flu from there and-. ""And his immune system is to weak to defend probably against it?". Kamira moved a few pages into the small stack of his medical records, which she had received upon entering the one-man hospital room. "He dosen`t appear to have any recorded illnesses in his childhood. The older you are, the more dangerous they become..". While mumbling to herself, she slowly stood up from the chair. Her knee long mane of pink hair feel down her back, the bangs resting on her chest.

"Well, don`t worry to much, i`m not gonna let him suffer. How would it not look if our Hokage was beaten by a flu?". Despite her rather calm and joking statement, she was a bit worried. It could be more than just the flu. The peassure of being Hokage can become hard, and if you look at the rumors, it might also be emotional problems. It will probably be needed that i dig into that. On top of it all, he is a Uchiha. The clan suffered a major setback in trust ever since great grandmother`s days. They have mostly regained it, but a few still avoids them.... Now that she thought about it, her great grandmother had been involved with the legend Uchiha Sasuke haden`t she? No, now is not the time to remember old stories from the scrolls!". Rechecking everything was in place in the room, she glanced towards the ANBU. Will he be arriving with anyone?". "Yes, with Ayame Akira, the person who found him". Kamira made a brief nod and pulled the sheets slightly to the left, so that he could be put in it directly. Out of habit she straighten out the plain white nurse uniform, making sure the skirt was set right. She would`t have time to set it once he arrived.

"When Hokage-sama arrives at the entrance, he will be taken to this room by the medics. Ayame can be allowed to stay, but it depends on his condition. Should it be to bad, wait outside with Ayame-sama. Since she was the one to find him, she could provide me with some vital information". The ANBU remained by the window and made a small nod. It was a little odd for a chunin to order a ANBU around, but in situations like this, a medic was in higher position.

(Starters has always been one of my weak points, but i hope it works well enough)

“Ok, Shi, whatever you’ve been eating these last few years, cut all of that off from your diet as soon as possible, you hear me?” Ayame stated this for probably the third time now as she was forced to shift her weight once again once they were yards away from Konoha’s very own hospital. At some point during their trip, Ayame had taken it upon herself to carry his entire body in somewhat of a piggyback as he started growing weaker and weaker. Though Ayame was the one who initiated this position, Shihouin’s size was making it rather difficult to get a good grip in. It wasn’t his weight exactly, Ayame had no problem with that considering she’s lifted things many times his weight with no effort at all. The problem however was his mass, more specifically his incredibly tall 5’5” stature compared to Ayame’s 5’8” height was making the compatibility for this piggyback ride a bit difficult for her.

Nevertheless, Ayame sucked it up, despite the multiple humorous complaints that she has been making for most of the way over there, and tried her very best to get Shihouin to the hospital in time to be properly treated for this sickness that had suddenly rained down on him. She was determined to get Shihouin up and running as good as new even if she had to sacrifice most of her own wellbeing in order to do that.

Once she had finally made it through the front entrance of the hospital, Ayame shifted Shihouin’s weight on her back as she walked through the halls of the hospital, currently quite busy due to the tragedy of the “rampaging” missing shinobi that had ran through the village. Attempting to gain someone’s attention, Ayame calmly called out to some of the medical experts. “Ummm, can one of you help my friend?” “He seems to be going through some medical issues” “ He really needs some medical attention right here.” Were all part of the list of things she had said in order to try and gain their attention and much more.

Unfortunately, the doctors, nurses and such would only go about their filled up business as they walked right past the kunoichi. At first, Ayame would still keep in her cool about this, but as time would gradually go on and Ayame would grow more and more irritated by the groups of medical experts that refused to even give Ayame a notice that they knew she existed, never mind even showing some concern for this pressing issue, she would eventually snap.

“Hey, idiots, you have the Hokage right here looking like he’s about to bbreath his last breath any second! If one of you don’t help him out this very second, then he won’t be the only one in need of medical attention!” The hospital personnel would then stop everything as they stared at the angry kunoichi for a second. Two seconds later, a team of doctors and nurses alike were getting Shihouin off of Ayame’s back and into a hospital bed. Ayame would then follow closely as they would wheel him over to what they referred to as one of their best medical ninja, Kamira Haruno.

(Tired.... 'nough said)

"He`s here". Even if she haden`t said it, the ANBU could clearly hear the signs of the Hokage`s arrival. Several voices of panicked medics, people`s loud mumbling about what had happned to him. "Has Hokage-sama been poisioned?", "has that woman done anything to him?". Just as Kamira had put the knee long mane of pink into a ponytail, the door was slammed up. Glancing at the person on the bed, she confirmed that it was the hokage. With his height, it was hard to mistake him for someone else. It was quite..odd to see a man of such power, lay so helplessly on a bed. "Get me some hot and cold water, 4 blankets, 2 exstra pillows and some clean clothes and towels!". Two of the medics walked, or rather ran, down the hallway to get some of them. The rest gathered around the bed, each taking a side of it. "On the count of 3. 1-2-3!". The medics lifted up in the bed, and the kage was quickly moved over in the real bed. As if on que, the two medics returned with the requested things.

"Thanks". Waisting no time, she went to work. Kamira laid her peach hand over his forehead, making a small nod to himself. He was burning hot, so hot that she probably would get a burn touching it for a longer period of time. "Make his chest bare and prepare a cold cloth for the forehead". The medics went to work with the shirt, and she was handed a icy cold cloth. "Hokage-sama don`t worry, we will take care of you". She didn`t know if he could still hear her, but keeping contact with the patient was important. Kamira placed the cold cloth onto his forehead, knowing it would have to be replaced serveral times. "Step aside please". The area that needed to be checked now was the chest. Upon first glance his body seemed to be at its best shape. A chest toned with muscles, and long strong legs from what she could see. It was no surprise to see such a well kept body considering his rank. His skin is paler than what it normal would be and he also has cold sweat..this might require more than just warm blankets. He did have a low resistance to begin with.

"This might feel a little weird, but it will be over soon". Kamira placed her hands directly over his heart, focusing chakra into the palms. A minty green aura of warm chakra began to form around her hands, emanating a soft light. The chakra began to take effect, and the amount of white blood cells began to increase. At first she kept her hands on the heart, but eventually she slided them over his entire upper body. After 10 minutes, signs of improvment could be seen. His skin is a little less pale now...but i might have to step it up a notch. The pink haired medic bit into her lower lip, and transfered even more chakra into the jutsu. Now using Kakusei no jutsu, the formation of cells would increase. The mindy green chakra grew a little larger, reaching little above her wrists. The movements of the hands was focused on the chest, but now or then she would tell a medic to turn him to the side, in order to work on the back.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1 hour later
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Thanks people, a job well done!", "you did the most, Haruno-san", "the key lies in the teamwork, dosen`t it?". The exhausted medics laughed a little at it, it was always funny when she quoted her mother. As the medics left the room with most of the equipment, she turned to the ANBU. "Please take Ayame-san out on the hallway, i would like to speak with Hokage-sama alone, he should be waking up soon". Turning to Ayame, she gave her a little smile. "He`s going to be fine. Kumori-san will ask you some questions, so please follow him outside". Torumi, who had responded with a small nod, opened the door, closing it behind himself as Ayame walked out.

It must be good to have such a caring friend. Kamira returned to the chair next to the bed, sitting down while untying the ponytail. Looking at the hokage again, she let her blue eyes check his status. A new cloth had been placed less than 2 minutes ago on the forehead, and his sheets was fresh and clean. 3 pillows supported his head, neck and back. A large glass of water was placed on the night stand, along with a fresh Sakura flower in a glass vase. The window was open, allowing the newly arrived sunlight to shine through. Kamira was holding a small plate with pieces of diffrent fruit on, which she would give him once he woke up.

"Shihouin-sama? Can you hear me?". Kamira bend a little forward, keeping her peach face close enough to see any signs in his face, yet far enough away should he suddenly jump up. "It is a beautiful face, no wonder women like him so much...", the pink haired medic mumbled to herself while looking down at his face. She was 16 herself, but she didn`t really consider herself a women, at least not yet.

"So Ayame-san, did you notice anything out of place in the office when you found him? Any trace of a visitor maybe?". Kumori had settled against the wall closest to the door, the relief being clear in his eyes. "If the leader of a pack falls or get injured, the pack begins to panic", he said in a joking manner, referring to the Uchiha kage as the leader of a wolf pack.

Spoiler:

Almost... Almost. The ninja in Konoha were truly exceptional a great group of people that knew what they were doing. They would be in good hands because of shinobi like the one who had taken care of him. Shihouin was up but he kept his eyes closed and breathed as if he were sound asleep, still lingering away between sickness and health. He had no yet realized that he was fully recovered but wondered why everything felt normal.

Who'd taken him? Ayame... Ayame. That's right. His childhood friend was still his friend who was willing to take care of him despite all the shit he'd done. Only one more piece of dung now and he'd be out of trouble and out of this... This. What do you call it? He mentally shrugged and knew that even though he couldn't necessarily place his tongue on that familiar voice back at the office.

He peeked his eyes open slowly seeing that Ayame nor the medic nor anyone else was near him at all. Immediately closing them and feeling the paper hospital clothes that they'd placed on him he figured it was time to put everything in motion. Using ninjutsu would make the situation worse with Ayame hanging around so he would have to just go normal and ignore them.

With his feet first, he rolled out of bed interrupting any conversation with noise from the covers and other wires and tubes attached to him rustling around on his body. There wasn't much to describe except this hot like chakra that seemed to leak out from his body. Most ninja like the medic in front of her wouldn't notice it all at, but the ANBU definitely did and Ayame would. Once he'd grasped the seriousness of the situation the ANBU pressed his hands to his ear. Now there were at least 10 on their way.

He stood up on bare feet and ignored them all uttering a few single words. The time had come. He would walk out and ignore them as they stood as if they were nothing but desks, paper, tiles, and paint. Things that existed but weren't meant to be thought about.

"Ayame, meet me at the village gates."


OOC: quickie.
