Scarlet was on her way home when suddenly an Anbu ninja arrives in front of Scarlet. Scarlet looks at him as he says "Red Witch, Lord Hokage has sent this message for you" and hands over a scroll to Scarlet. After saying this he disappeared. Scarlet went to a corner and opened the scroll under a tree, the scroll said the following.
SCARLET,
NARUTO AND SAKURA WERE INJURED IN THEIR PREVIOUS MISSIONS AND ARE IN THE HOSPITAL. THEY ARE NOT IN CRITICAL CONDITION. VISIT THEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
After reading the paper Scarlet clenched her fist and hit the tree. The tree shook violently, Scarlet then jumped onto the branch and vanished in the darkness. Many visible cracks started to appear on the trunk of the tree as the leaves started to wither.
Scarlet arrived at the hospital after removing her Anbu uniform. She went towards the reception and the receptionist where Naruto and Sakura were. The receptionist informed Scarlet where their rooms were. Scarlet walked up the stairs and went towards Naruto's room. Scarlet went to Naruto's room.
Just as she entered the room she saw Naruto on the bed beside the window. She walked towards Naruto and caressed his right cheek as his left one was bandaged. Scarlet then checks if he has any serious injuries and felt relieved to find some small injuries only. Scarlet whispers as she kisses Naruto's forehead " Got injured again huh, Idiot!".
Scarlet then rises and goes towards the door to visit Sakura when Naruto suddenly mutters "Nee-chan...". Scarlet stops and turns back to see Naruto lazily opening his and getting up. Scarlet goes towards Naruto and says "So you finally woke up".
Naruto chuckles as he says "Long time no see, Nee-chan". Scarlet replies "Cut that nonsense and tell me what happened."
Naruto says with a sad and serious tone " Nee-chan, the pervy sage said that he got news about the whereabouts of Orochimaru so Sakura and I went with him in the mission to bring back Sasuke. But unfortunately, we could not see Sasuke and we had to fight Orochimaru and Kabuto."
Naruto has some tears in his eyes as he continues "But we were too weak to even fight them Nee-chan. Sakura and I were rescued by Jiraiya otherwise we would have died. It is too frustrating that I am so weak ".
Scarlet smiled as she consoled Naruto " It's good that you know you are weak, Naruto.". Naruto was slightly shocked that he heard such words from Scarlet. Scarlet continued "Listen to me Naru chan, it is only when you realize how weak you are you will start working harder to grow stronger. Naru chan after you got Multi shadow clone jutsu you mostly kept relying on that jutsu and stopped learning new ones."
Listening to Scarlet's words Naruto suddenly realized that he was too dependent on shadow clones. Scarlet continued "Naruto so how about I buy you some weights like the one's lee wears?"
On hearing Scarlet's words Naruto remembered how the ground shook when Lee dropped his weights to the floor. Naruto gulps and says " Nee-chan, If I have so much weight on me then I might not be able to move at all."
Scarlet says "Well let's just buy lighter weights ... or I can even see if there are any seals suitable for you". On seeing Scarlet's face Naruto realized that his days were going to be hard. Naruto cheers himself for some self-confidence 'Best of luck'.
Scarlet then said "Naru chan, I will now go to visit Sakura. Take care of yourself."
Naruto smiles as he says "Just leave everything to me"
Scarlet leaves Naruto's room and heads towards Sakura's room. Scarlet knocks at the door.
The door gets opened as Scarlet sees Tsunade at the other end.
