Each member of Team Bear read over the mission scroll. Agent Crane wanted to roll her eyes and groan on the way there. It was a seduction mission, and Sakura had to prepare.

She needed to look as weak and frail as possible. Considering that she was relatively thin now, was helpful. But a quick medical jutsu allowed her to change where some of the fat on her body was kept. A larger bust and ass always drew in more attention than needed so this jutsu was perfect for it. Another quick henge was needed for her hair and eye color, blond hair and blue eyes were fairly common in Konoha but in Kumo? Not very much. It would be perfect for the exotic look she was going for, considering that her look was exotic, to begin with.

Zatsuto was beyond disgusting. His grimy silver locks were always slicked back and in a wet looking ponytail, his oily face looked like he had just worked out with the clear sheen, his nails were yellowed and bitten down, and his strip club? Beyond disgusting. It was no wonder why he manufactured drugs in the basement under his strip club. It was beyond disgusting.

Three weeks later the team returned home with mission success. They separated after their mission report for the Hokage. The boys had friends to catch up with but Sakura just wanted to go home and wash as much grime off as she could.

After a bottle of whiskey, Sakura scrubbed her skin roughly in the shower. "Still not enough," she mumbled to herself. Another two bottles of whiskey and three showers later Sakura's skin was raw and stung when anything touched it. The pain she could deal with. She needed to feel something other than feeling that crime-lord Zatsuto's hands all over her body. She wouldn't be able to survive if that's all she felt for the rest of her life.

Stomach full of booze and nothing else, Sakura crashed onto her bed in a fitful sleep. She needed another mission to get rid of this feeling. Maybe she could request a solo tomorrow.

This was a shorter chapter because I just had to get this Author Note out there for the guest reviewer. Thank you, everyone, for your support so far, I really appreciate it!

To the guest who gave lots of criticisms- I like positive critiques but there were a lot more negatives thrown in than positives. I hope that you continue to read my story and see how I portray my versions of these characters and their flaws. I know my writing isn't the best but it was the first chapter and I can't explain everything right away. Sakura is very deeply flawed in my story but Genma looks at her through rose-colored glasses. He'll get a wake-up call later on, along with the rest of the boys. Please give me time to explain how Sakura got here and everything she had to claw her way out of. As I said, the first chapter is Sakura through Genma's vision of herself. She's going through some hard times but he doesn't see that yet.
