Hikaru strode up to the familiar doors of the Konoha Byoin and stepped inside, relishing the wave of clean-scented air that came when one entered the building. It certainly hadn’t been long since she walked through those doors for the first time, and now… she was on her way to speak with her mentor about her official promotion to Medical Chief. There were two other Medical Chiefs serving the village at the moment, she knew- although she hadn’t met the second one face-to-face yet. She supposed she would get the chance to very soon, considering her new status. It felt very strange, to walk through the halls and wave to hospital staff that she would likely be charged with managing within the hour. She was absolutely excited, though. This was the next step in her growth as a ninja and a person, Hikaru was sure, even if it had come sooner than she had expected.
She arrived at the corridor that adjoined the Sennin’s office to the majority of the Byoin, and wondered briefly if he would be there or not. The thought led to another, very interesting one- she would probably get her own office. Now that was weird. Even her father barely had an office space to call his own, although that was more due to specifics within his research group rather than his own status. Still, she would have to bring him along with her to work sometime; he had been so elated when she told him she would be joining the Medical Branch.
Hikaru knocked twice on the door to Nao’s office, and waited respectfully to see if he was indeed inside. She extracted the letter of recommendation from her bag, taking a moment to examine the detailed seal of the Hokage imprinted on it, and held it at her side.
