Schizophrenia

Delve Deeper

As Sakura and Ino decided to leave the prison, walking away from the heavily guarded area Sakura couldn’t help but have concern for her friend. What could have Ino so intent on being trained by her mysterious birth father? Sakura couldn’t get a reading on Ino’s intent, but it couldn’t be good. Ever since Sakura was chosen to be Tsunade’s apprentice it would only be understand that’d she be jealous, or is it deeper than that?

“Hey Sakura, I’m going to head home. My mom’s probably wondering where I am, but can you do a favor for me?” Ino asked very politely with a tinge of nervousness in her voice.

“Yeah, what is it?” Sakura replied as happily as she could.

“Well like Urami, er, my father said I’d like to get an injunction filed for his parole. Think you can handle that for me?” Ino asked sweetly.

“uhhhh…”Sakura said trying to think, but Ino butt in and shouted, “Thanks! I really got to get going, bye!” and Ino ran off towards town leaving a slightly suspicious Sakura, who is also a bit disappointed she couldn’t speak up to her best friend about it not being a good idea in her opinion.

Unknown to the two girls, in the trees above a man wearing a mask with goggles and ANBU attire was spying on the girl’s trip to the prison and inside tailing their every move.

“ Lord Danzo will be most interested…” The lone ANBU muttered to himself before disappearing.

As Sakura reached the Hokage tower in what would not be considered a joyous mood, she decided she would help Ino reunite with her father. After all what kind of friend would keep a daughter and father apart?

As Sakura opened the door to Tsunade’s office she first saw a huge stack paper work next to Tsunade who had her head down on her desk with a glass of sake in her right hand. Apparently other people aren’t having a great day either. Shizune was hovering over Tsunade with her hand on her shoulder trying to motivate their Hokage, but with very limited success.

“C’mon Lady Tsunade. The paper work simply won’t disappear if you won’t do it. Ahh, look Sakura’s here now. She’ll help us, won’t you?” Shizune said with a little bit of panic in her eyes as she looked for Sakura to back her up.

“Of course! I’ll help Lady Tsunade finish filling the paper work at once!” Sakura said in her best can do attitude voice, which got Tsunade to lift her head and stare at Sakura with hope.

“Thank you Sakura, now I’m going to go out for a break. While I’m gone I want you to start where I left off.” Tsunade wearily said as she left the office with Shizune right behind her with Tonton in hand, leaving Sakura alone with all the paper work. Should have figured Tsunade would ditch, like she has done many times in the past.

After 2 hours of tedious and tiresome paper work, there was a knock at the door and Sakura called, “The Hokage isn’t in at the moment.” But the door opened anyway to show an elderly man with a cane and bandages walk in. Sakura vaguely remembers the man as Danzo, since Tsunade a few months ago went off on a drunken rant about how much she hated the man, but other than that she didn’t know much.

“It doesn’t concern the Hokage’s immediate attention. I just have some more paperwork.” Danzo sternly stated as he pulled out a sheet of paper from his robe and put it on top of Sakura’s paper stack before departing and saying, “Good day.”

Sakura just pinched the bridge of her nose and closed her eyes for a moment trying to refocus her on the task at hand. After finishing the C rank mission report Sakura took a look at Danzo’s paper and was a bit shocked to see it was a parole injunction, for Urami Yamanaka.

“What the…” Sakura whispered to herself as she reviewed the paper carefully. The paper stated that his immediate release would be scheduled in two days by orders of Danzo for the purpose of Root ANBU intelligence. He did have this kind of authority being on the elder council and head of all ANBU operations, but it is strange that on the very same day Ino and her visit Urami, Danzo files an injunction. Something is definitely up, but Sakura still can’t put her finger on it. Once Lady Tsunade gets back she’ll have plenty of questions.

Ino got home to be greeted by her mother sitting patiently in the living room of her house reading a book, and as Ino walked into talk to her mother she interjected and said, “Honey, you’re late where have you been?”

“Nowhere special. Just went to the Hokage tower with Sakura.” Ino casually said to her mother who just sighed and acknowledged it.

“Well you’re late by about a half hour, so we need to go see Inoichi now. He probably thinks we forgot about him or something.”

“You need to chill mom, it’ll be fine. He’s understanding.” Ino tried to argue against her mother’s drastic thoughts only to get a frown in return.

The two women got their belongings together quickly and departed to the hospital, and Ino had a large amount of thoughts stirring around in her head. She still loved Inoichi very much, but know that she knows of her birth father, she can’t help but think of all the negatives about Inoichi. He never has had time to train her extensively in the clan style and is usually bogged down with work to pay much attention to her, which leaves her with her mother, which was stressful before Inoichi’s disease.

They reach the hospital and check in as the two walk down to Inoichi’s room to see him laying still with his oxygen mask on. Ino’s mother quietly knocks on the door to see Inoichi’s eyes snap open and look over to his wife and daughter with a sense of relaxation.

“Sorry we’re late. Ino was late after spending too much time with her friends.” Ino’s mother said which Ino rolled her eyes at how her mom tried to pin any fault at all on her.

Inoichi removed his oxygen mask and said, “No, it’s fine. I was reading an interesting book that Kakashi dropped by earlier. Very interesting indeed…anyways glad to see your faces again.”

“Are you feeling any better?” Ino’s mother asked Inoichi who kinda shrugged.

“Well I don’t feel any worse, so I guess that’s a plus. Nothing much to say since the doctors hasn’t told me much. Tsunade is supposed to look at me again tomorrow morning, so hopefully that will yield more news. Hey, mind if I talk with Ino in private. Just some father daughter time?”

“Sure thing Inoichi, I’ll be outside.” Inoichi’s wife kindly replied as she left the room and shut the door on the way out.

Inoichi waited a moment before saying in a hushed tone to Ino, “I know you went to see him.”

“Wha- how- what?” Ino stammered at a lose for words.

“Inoichi chuckled a bit before taking a drag from his oxygen mask and saying, “I’m not mad Ino, I knew you’d be curious. I just want to warn you of my cousin; your father. He has many skeletons in his closet and just because you’re his daughter, you’re my daughter too. Just be wary of him, that’s all I ask. He has a way of…changing others.”

“What do you mean by that?” Ino questioned as she furrowed her brow.

“I used to work with your father extensively back when we were in the Intelligence and Interrogation sector together. He was the best at what he did, show’d me and Ibiki many tricks of the trade; although I will say he did favor teaching Ibiki than me. If you wish to learn more about Urami, Ibiki would be the next best person to ask since they did work so closely for so long. As for what I said earlier, just be careful of him. He’s used to controlling people, manipulating them to his will. I don’t think he’d be as cruel to do any deviant act to his own daughter, but I just want you educated on the matter, understand?”

“Yes dad.” Ino stated as she bowed to her father as opened the door to let her oblivious mother back into the room as the family of three continued to chat about current events and other matters. Ino tried to interact as much as she could, but all she could really think about was talking to Ibiki Moreno. She craved to know more.
