Natalie's POV
I walked to Sasuke's hospital room where Naruto, Sakura, and I planned to meet up. I walked in to see that they were already there. "Hope you're feeling okay." I said. Sasuke seemed to be thinking about something deep. Sakura was saying things while cutting an apple. I heard a clatter to the floor as Sasuke smacked the plate out of Sakura's hands. I looked at them and Sakura. "Come on Sakura." I said grabbing her arm and taking her out of the room. "Stay here. I'll go after those two. Try and find Kakashi." I said running onto the roof. They were both in fighting stances and I knew what both of them planned to do. Sakura ran in front of me and started crying. "Stop it you two!" She cried out. I watch them charge up their attacks and lunge at each other. I sped towards them and Kakashi disarmed them both, I caught Naruto in my arms and we flew towards a water tower. His attack hit it but only left a tiny hole. "That was not a Chidori for a training match!" Kakashi yelled. I looked at both of the boys to see if they hurt themselves. "Are you two insane!" I yelled. Sasuke and Naruto looked at me with guilt and I jumped next to Kakashi. "I'm going for a walk." I muttered running away. I ran to the only place I thought was safe...the sakura tree hill. I sat down and leaned against the trunk of the tree. I didn't understand why they always had to fight, they were both equally good ninja. I caught a sakura petal in my hand and I felt the soft petal. "Life is hard, especially with those two." I heard Gaara's voice say. I looked up and there he was standing in front of me with a small smile. "Gaara is that really you?" I asked my eyes starting to water. "Sadly no. I made a sand clone that I can control. I'm still in my village." I got up and hugged the clone whether it was him or not. "I miss you so much." I said looking up at the clone. "I miss you too." He whispered. We stayed in a hugging position for a while before I heard someone clear their throat. "Lord Kazekage." Kakashi greeted looking at me. "Natalie I don't have much chakra left to talk. I'll be here waiting for you if I can." He said and with that the sand fell into a pile and started to move away. "Lady Tsunade wants to speak with you." He informed watching the sand disappear. I nodded and teleported into her office. "Lady Tsunade." I greeted bowing. I sat in front in her and she looked at me with a small smile. "I've decided that it would be best if you went tomorrow to go meet with the Kazekage." She explained looking at the scroll in front of her. "Of course Lady Tsunade." I said mentally screaming in my head. "I have a question for you Natalie." She said. "I want you to read my mind and take all of my medical ninjutsu information and I want you to start studying it and learning on your own. I'm sure you'll be able to learn in no time." She said naturally. I nodded and she waited. I did a few hand signs and she held her breath. "Brougtoken!" I yelled going into her mind. It was dark and very full of information I searched her mind and found all of her medical ninjutsu. I took the information and exited her mind. "There it's done." I explained. "I can teach others, but with all my knowledge that you have you might actually surpass me in medical ninjutsu." She explained. I nodded and smiled at her. "Lady Tsunade why do the best ninja have to fight each other?" I asked sadly. "Well sometimes they want to prove something that they are more powerful or they have unfinished business or in Sasuke's case revenge." She explained. I shook my head and felt a tear slip down my face. "It just reminds me how my brother and father got into a fight before Niobi left. I was so scared then watching them hurt each other." I explained. "Your brother was in the hospital when you woke up correct." She asked. "Yeah." I said rubbing my arm. "He showed me a giant scar on his back. It looked like a whip mark." She said looking at me. "We used to own cattle before my parents went crazy. They all died during the winter and he used the whip on Niobi once and me twice." I turned around and lifted my shirt so she could see the two long scars that formed an x on my back. "Oh my goodness." Tsunade said as I let my shirt cover the scars again. "Only Iruka sensei knew about them before my parents were murdered." I said.

*FLASHBACK*
I was talking to Sakura as we were lining up to go outside. I heard a shout and a tug at my shirt. I immediately covered it up and ran out into the hall and ran to the girls bathroom. I locked the door and made sure there was no one in here. I let a few tears slip down my face before I heard a knock. "Natalie I know you are in here. I'm coming in." He said. I let my back touch the wall and I didn't meet Iruka sensei's eyes. "What happened?" He asked kneeling down to look at me. "Someone ripped the back of my shirt." I mumbled. "I understand that. Kiba tripped Naruto and he grabbed your shirt by accident. Why are you hiding and crying?" He asked. I got up and turned around. I heard a gasp escape his mouth and I felt him grab my shoulders and he turned me around. "Who did this?" He asked. "It was my parents. They didn't mean to they just got a little upset and my dad hit me with it twice." I explained. Iruka pulled me into a hug and I hugged him back. "I'll have Lord Hokage send some Anbu to talk to your parents." He said trying to calm me down. "Thank you Iruka sensei." I whispered.
*FLASH BACK*

I snapped back into reality as Dedira came into the room. "Lady Hokage there is a patient in the medical ward that needs your help." He said. I stood up and bowed a good bye. I walked out of the Hokage tower and Kakashi started walking next to me. "I have to talk to some of the jonin and Anbu so I'll be home a little later than usual." He explained walking away. I walked into our apartment and started to make dinner for when he got home. The scars were always something I liked. They made me look tough and showed people what I had gone through. "Smells good." I heard Kakashi say. "I hope so. It should be done in ten minutes." I said smiling at him. He nodded and walked to the living room and started reading a book. I looked at the soup boiling in the pot and saw my reflection look back at me. I slowly frowned and pushed away the thoughts of weakness.
