It was evening in the village of Konohagakure no Sato, the Village Hidden in the Leaves. The faculty of the Shinobi Academy had left for the day, all except two. One was the senior physician at the Academy, Eboshi-sensei. She had been absent from the Academy today, as she was also the Sandaime Hokage's personal physician. In his old age, he needed her assistance more than ever. Age was kind to no one, the God of Shinobi included. She had spent the day with him, giving him painkillers (for shinobi, arthritis is a royal PITA). She had left one of her junior assistants in charge at the Academy in her stead. The assistant in question was the other person present, because Eboshi was currently chewing the younger man out.
"How could you have been so careless?! I left specific instructions!" The middle-aged woman was holding an empty syringe, waving it in the young man's face. "And on TODAY, of all days! You've bungled it this time, Ryohei!"
Eboshi's current cause for concern was the fact that today had been immunization day at the Academy. Young shinobi-in-training were often exposed to things they hadn't been prior to the Academy. While most things weren't of great concern, enough were that there was a scheduled day, twice a year (for each semester) in which young shinobi were immunized against various nasty viruses.
The problem was that today, Ryohei had grabbed some of the wrong syringes. Rather than immunization shots, they were hormone enhancers for women. It was one of those syringes that now lay empty in Eboshi's fist. She had found it while packing up after him, and had recognized it.

Was it just one syringe that had been used, or multiple?
