Tsunade 3
But once she was a full-fledged doctor, Tsunade no longer needed the income generated by her movies. She'd achieved her dream, and while she admittedly still liked the attention and notoriety she got being a porn star, she'd finally met the man she'd give it all up for. He was a rookie cop named Dan with a heart of gold. Tsunade's tits weren't all he saw when he looked at her, she knew; he didn't even realize she was in porno until she told him. And he didn't care. Sure, he liked her body, but he loved her for her wit and her intelligence, her talent as a doctor. It meant a lot. And he shared the same dream her little brother had... someday, Dan wanted to be Chief of Police.

For a few years everything was going blissfully well in Tsunade's life. She was head of the ER in her hospital and enjoyed a loving and equal relationship with Dan. They were even talking of marriage. Until one day Dan rushed through the doors of Tsunade's ER... on a crash cart. He'd been shot multiple times by a suspect he'd been chasing, blood was everywhere and he was barely clinging to life. Tsunade tried to save him, rushing him to an operating room and trying to remove the bullets and stop the bleeding herself. He died in her hands. She never recovered from the memory of all that blood--his blood--coating her gloves, soaking her clothes.

After that, Tsunade fell apart. She started drinking a lot so she could laugh instead of cry, and quit being a doctor. What kind of doctor was she anyway if she couldn't even save the life most dear to her? And what kind of doctor couldn't stand the sight of blood? She spent years pushing all the pain aside by simply drinking and gambling. This really put a dent in her savings, considerable though they were, especially considering she had no money coming in anymore... But Tsunade just couldn't bring herself to care. Dreams and hope died with her brother and Dan.

It wasn't until she noticed signs of age in her reflection that reality started to sink in. Instead of facing her problems and taking better care of herself though, she spent the rest of her savings on plastic surgery, putting a neat mask over any unpleasantness.

But reality wouldn't be denied. She may have staved off age, but her notoriously horrible luck was finally catching up with her. Only when she found herself so deep in gambling debt that she was in trouble with the landlord did she finally admit she needed to go out and earn some cash again. (Like she'd ever give up gambling! Hah!)

With her looks, she could easily go back into doing movies again. But it felt somehow wrong to go back to that now that she'd known the touch of someone who loved her. (Sickening how such a cliché could ring so true.) So Tsunade decided instead to get back into medicine... this time, though, in a less brutal field than the ER or even a hospital.

Instead she decided to go into private practice specializing in helping those in the porn and prostitution industry. She knew firsthand how rampant disease was among sex workers and also how little anyone protected or looked out for them. There were laws on the Nevada books that required sex workers to be tested weekly for disease, but Tsunade knew that it didn't always happen. Tsunade found an employer in Feel Good, Inc. One of the few big companies that realized keeping its employees clean and healthy was actually very good for business... So she's putting her medical skills to good use, helping others, and is slowly climbing her way out of debt.
