"Sakura here! A bit preoccupied right now, but leave something for me to look forward to.
If this is a medical emergency, sorry!"

[ A relaxed posture is what greets everyone as Sakura sits with her arms resting against her knees and the PokeGear in her hands. It isn't a very good pose for most girls, but she wears shorts so there's nothing incriminating to see here. In her lap squirms a tiny baby Pokemon as it struggles to get some more sleep. ]
So there's a big party coming up, huh? [ Sakura's in a relatively good mood this morning as the soft hum of the city's background music fills the silence in-between her commentary. ] I happened to miss last years having come in a few weeks after, but a lot of people talked about it for months on end. I guess the same will be said for this year's gathering as well, yeah?
[ Heh. ] I'll be going, of course. Right now, I'm more interested in hearing about what I might need to bring with me. There's some of you still here that attended the event last year, isn't there? Give me the details.
Oh, does anyone know if we can bring our Pokemon? I've got--[ She pauses and silently moves her mouth to count something. One, two, three, four... ]--yeah, I've got four baby Pokemon that might need my attention for the next couple weeks. It'd be terrible to put freshly hatched babies back into a Pokeball before they have enough time to stretch out their little limbs.
So let me know, will you?

Mahogany Town is pretty great all around, don't you think? [ Just a couple weeks ago, she was back in New Bark Town and she's made it this far? ] I guess it's an unfair advantage knowing people who can use Fly and get you from place to place pretty quick. No complaints here though!
[ It might have been difficult to tell where she was had she not announced it. There's aluminium bleachers stacked up behind her and she's picked up a new shirt with longer sleeves. Not that she'll need it for much longer as spring is approaching, but it's nice to wear at a skating rink. ]
There's a couple people I know who have been here for a long time, like, long enough to actually grow here? What happens when they return to our world? Wouldn't someone back home notice the changes? [ Of course they would, everyone in Konoha has an astute memory and something being off physically is a red flag that something's up. A red flag that can't be ignored easily. ] It's a concern because a few of my comrades have returned home after living in this world long enough to change physically so I'm concerned about their fate.
Doesn't it change our future? Wouldn't I remember something since I'm ahead of them in the timeline?
This topic must come up a lot here when people get sent home, but I've wondered it myself since... well, I left? [ But she didn't return home. This is something she's not interested in making public information however, so she just frowns in favor of an explanation. ]
Oh, I think Naruto's finally got his skates on. Time to see what's so fun about sliding around on ice--but hey, will you leave me your answers? Just a little should be enough to give me peace of mind.
NOTE | Sakura will reply to all messages a few hours after she's done trying to distract her teammate~

[ Life's full of unexpected bumps along the way, but one Sakura never could plan for was a return to this place. Well, the return was a few hours ago. Upon recognizing "MOM" and being shoved out for her "brand new Pokemon journey", she wasted no time in New Bark Town. The PokeGear had no record of her previous messages, but she did recall the last time she spoke to someone was during October which meant the current month of "February" was distressing enough on it's own. Her partner was significantly weaker and didn't recognize her either so it was likely the Happiny was an entirely different Pokemon. With this evidence before her, it was deductive reasoning that drew her to the conclusion that she had left, but hadn't left. There were no new memories of home, so it wasn't as if she slept into one of those memory comas, but people rarely disappear for months without explanation.
She's already flipped through the contact list, but it was late at night when she arrived, so she opted out of making any messages for now. So many of the names she knew should have been on that list were absent and the ones that were there wouldn't have abandoned her if she fell into a coma which only further validated the conclusion she left. Maybe this was like that time with Kushina, when she left and came back right away without memories? Sakura's witnessed it, but she remembers her time in Johto well.
(Or as well as someone who has been asleep for several months could be)
When the sun begins to light up the path of Route 29, the young woman takes a break to watch it from high up in a tree with Happiny in her lap. Before she had trouble bonding with Pokemon, but today she felt the attachment stronger than before. If she's come back with her memories, there must be cause for it, and she's not willing to let it be a waste this time. When she's done and about ready to start back up, she finally sends a text message to everyone who she recognizes on the contact list:
I'm back. Remember everything from before. Going to make a public message soon.
Once that's done, she flips the PokeGear on for a video message. That's about much warning she'll give her comrades before she addresses everyone else. ]
Hey guys. [ Casually spoken as she leans back against the trunk of the tree, Happiny perking up with her own noises as a greeting. ] Guess I get to start all over now that I'm here again, but that's all right. A minor setback like this never really hurt anyone and besides, I've already started by giving this one here a name.
[ Which is far better than she did last time. ] Hatsumi. [ To which the Pokemon's eyes light up at recognition with the spoken name. ] Settle down please, this branch can only support so much weight.
[ Probably an unwise idea to take a Pokemon that heavy up into a tree along with her own weight, but it was to show her the sunrise better as well as to collect her own thoughts. ]
I don't think there's many good Pokemon down this route, so I'll probably pick up a job where I can so I can buy a couple of additional ones. That's what trainers do, isn't it? Despite remembering everything, I'll admit I didn't give it my full attention. There were some Pokemon I was interested in picking up so if someone in good faith is selling eggs or wants to trade for something I can capture here, let me know.
So that's how it is. Anyone want to fill me in while I start my journey back up? I've got a lot of ground to cover so try to not mind it.

Life kind of sucks without Naruto around to keep her fully distracted. Sakura's come to discover that maybe all this time she's been using him as just that instead of coming to terms with everything that's happened with the war back home. Her life has been fairly easy up until that point because no matter what, she could always return home at the end of a long mission and kick off her shoes to relax only to be harped at by her mother. That was alright, but this? Being sent off to another world without any indication of what's happened? Difficult. It was too difficult for her to overcome. The dead were alive, the enemy was now their ally, and the guilt that came from knowing all of this was too much for her.
Add in the fact that Naruto's been out in a coma for the past few days and Sakura's mood has completely tanked. Not that she's willing to show it, in fact this is the first bout of privacy she's had in a while. Refusing to leave Naruto's side, his parents had been kind enough to accommodate that, but everyone needs to wash off sometime. This is why she's in the bath tub late at night with her PokeGear in hand. See, she comes from a world where technology isn't all that accessible to others her age so things like accidental recordings or slippery electronics are foreign to her.
Not for much longer will this subject be unfamiliar to her.
[ VIDEO: LATE NIGHT ]
[ This video abruptly starts from the floor of a bathroom (easy enough to tell because there's a rug resting on linoleum and what appears to be porcelain nearby) with a blood-curdling scream. Splashes can be heard and soon enough there's shoulders along with sopping wet pink hair plastered along it leaning over the PokeGear. ]
P-Pervert! [ She's screaming at someone or something nearby as the splashes continue. Is her attacker in the bathtub now? Bubbles are flying everywhere in a convenient manner just to keep anyone from seeing anything sensitive on her body as she scoots back out of sight. ] I'll kill you! Where's that curling iron?! I'll fry you so hard you'll zap right back out that window!
[ Suddenly, something even more horrifying than the thought of a pervert comes into view. It leans over the side of the bathtub and points a fin towards the PokeGear as though to warn her that this was live.
Unfortunately, it doesn't last for long before a bar of soap smacks it back into the water with a loud thud. But hey Naruto, she found your mom's missing fish! A shame he's not here to have an excuse to jump in to 'save the day'. ]
[ TEXT: EARLY MORNING ]
Seems as though a message was sent out from my PokeGear last night.
Disregard it.
Can anyone tell me if a Feebas is worth keeping around?
I'm torn between frying it up for lunch today or kicking it out.
Seems pretty useless all around.
By the way, has there even been a time when someone's failed to wake up from a coma within a week?
I'd like to know for medical reasons.
This world is strange when it comes to what's proper and what's not with the human body.
Please advise only if you're familiar with it.
No speculation today.

[ VIDEO: AFTERNOON ]
[ The background of trees familiar to a certain town fills the video as Sakura remains perched high up on a branch of one. A bit of movement and there, finally the camera was angled on her. Despite the unsettling additions from Konoha, she seems to be in a pleasant mood. Finally having mastered her poker face, she leans back against the trunk with a knee pulled towards her chest. ]
A great deal of us rely on the PokeGear listing as a roster of those we know, but that's not the best resource. How many of you have been surprised at seeing someone younger or older than you last saw them? [ Or how many of them have seen the dead come back to life? ] The whole thing is unsettling when you think about it so I've given it a great deal of thought myself. When a person first arrives, they're already so overwhelmed with the situation that adding more pressure may do more harm than good. Wouldn't it be easier to assign an individual to speak with them to discover what they might have witnessed in their life to better protect them?
Well, I'm not sure about that myself. This world has a surprisingly low amount of counsel when it comes to problems of that nature. [ Is she just talking to be talking? Yes, but it's keeping her from being bummed out from other things. ] Anyway, I'd like to keep a roster of things for my own personal record so if you're an ally of mine from back home, do us both a favor and just tell me what you last remember.
[ Adding on strictly: ] In private. I'm not saying I'd be a counselor for that kind of thing, but it'd be nice to keep a personalized roster.
[ TEXT: NIGHT ]
[ Sometime later in the day (likely after she's had several conversations with others), Sakura will sit down to communicate once more with the network over the PokeGear. While she's neglected the world of Pokemon when it came to her peers (she's too distracted with other concerns), Sakura makes up for it by studying the vast amounts of information there is on the subject. Most of the time this takes place before she sleeps, suffering from late night and short bursts of rest. This comes in later in the evening, maybe at a hour that most would be asleep. ]
I've been working on better balancing my Pokemon party, but I'm not sure who would make a good choice for the sixth Pokemon.
I have a Happiny, Blaziken, Audino, Petilil, and Joltik.
That means I have the following types covered: normal, fire, grass, and electric.
What would you suggest to balance the team?
I'd like to capture or maybe even trade for a new one since I've had to take care of a lot of baby Pokemon as of recent.
Although I do read that's even better in the long run so maybe I'll just hatch a new one.
Experienced trainers, what do you think?
I'm looking to win.

Melodic music fills the ear of a girl who hears better than most and that alone is what snaps her fully alert. When she last thought of her own free will, there was a battle raging on around her with no time to think of the simpler things in life like music and friends she'll never see again. There's no familiar warmth of chakra that belonged to another and Kakashi--what happened to him? So many unanswered questions plague at her mind, but the most important of them all? Where was she? Normally she might be able to pick up on a powerful Genjutsu before, but this didn't feel like anything she's studied before. Her body felt unlike her own as she felt something sink to the bottom of her stomach.
[ VIDEO A: EARLY MORNING ]
I don't understand. [ An onslaught of helplessness plagues Sakura and so when the PokeGear is nudged on by accident (she doesn't bother to treat her "belongings" carefully since they aren't her own), she's unaware that the scene is being shown live to so many others. ] This isn't supposed to be... None of this makes sense... I need to return... Naruto--[ The name spoken with more worry and fondness than ever before. ]--just hang on.
[ All of these phrases come in broken and cut abruptly at times, the pack shifting with her movements. When it jerks suddenly and pops out from the pack being placed roughly onto the ground, there's a teenager girl who looks more worn than anything else (those dark spots under her eyes aren't doing much for her looks) clad in a green vest staring down at the PokeGear as though it were a foreign object. To most newcomers in New Bark Town, it usually is foreign. ]
This is? [ Shaking her head, she picks it up and places it back into the pack without knowing any better. A shout for her attention though might keep her from dismissing it entirely. ]
[ VIDEO B: EVENING ]
[ Once Sakura's discovered more about this world (as well as the inevitable "no escape" aspect), it is only appropriate that she gives a more proper introduction. This time though she's without the scratches and scrapes (they're just covered up by her hair and bandages) and she's changed into a fresh pair of clothes. Also of note is the fact her hair is loose with nothing holding it back now, no for now she looks like more peaceful than she did this morning. Holding the PokeGear, it seems she's at least aware of it's purpose now. ]
Hey there, I'm new to this place so I'll ask for your patience in advance if that's alright. My name is Sakura Haruno and there's no need to explain the situation to me--I understand. [ Boldly declaring her name? No, she just knows the PokeGear gives away her full registered name anyway so there's no point in concealing it. ] We're all stuck here no matter what's going on back at home, but if there are theories as to how we can return, let's hear them. I have the time.
[ Plenty of time now, she might add if it didn't feel attention seeking in any way. ] Curiously, do people talk about where they come from here? I'm interested in hearing about other villages if you're not too busy. Huh, that's kind of a personal question too, isn't it? Sorry, sorry. [ Waving her free hand apologetically. ] Been a while since I've had a normal conversation so I'm acting all weird. Anyway, it'd be nice if someone replied to this... anyone, anyone at all really.
[ While she did start off headstrong with her broadcast, by the end of it her voice cracks to indicate how feeble she really is. There's a reason she's not outright traveling like most do on their first day. Behind her is a small room with an ordinary looking bed--an indication that she's retiring somewhere within the starter town for the evening. ]
