It was morning in Konoha, as Kusaki got up early today to start his training with Shizune. Kusaki was feeling a little happy today, even what happen with Sakura last night. She was upset when he came back, but after he explain what happen, she understand and claim down a bit. Sakura wasn't home right now. She got up early today to help Tsunade at the hospital. After he get most of his ninja tools together, Kusaki head to the doorway, put his sandals on, and head out the door.

20 minutes later...

Kusaki was at the training field, waiting for Shizune to come. Kusaki wonder what Shizune going to teach him. Chakra control, medical arts, or basic combat? Whatever she going to teach him, Kusaki know she will help to get stronger. As he look to the sky, he hear some footsteps coming toward him. Kusaki turn his head to see who it is. At first, Kusaki couldn't tell by far, but after the person come closer to him, he can see it was Shizune.
Kusaki wave to Shizune, as she wave back to him.

"Ah, good morning, Shizune." Said Kusaki as he bow to her.

Shizune didn't say nothing, but she also bow to Kusaki as well.

"So, what as you going to teach me, Shizune?" Asked Kusaki.

Shizune still didn't answer back.

"Uh, Shizune? Are you alright?" Asked Kusaki with a confuse look on his face.

Shizune begin to tough her throat.

"Uh, is your throat hurt?" Asked Kusaki.

Shizune smiled as she begin to nod her head quickly.

"Something worry." Thought Kusaki. "I don't know why, but I have a bad feeling about this."

Shizune was acting a bit off today. Even if she have a sore throat, Kusaki knew something wrong. But what? She look the same when he first meet her. But, something is off. He just don't know what it is. Shizune give out her right hand, smiling at Kusaki. Kusaki though to himself...
