Stronger {Kiba Inuzuka Love Story} [2]

~8~

Kiba POV

I shift my head to the side so the bright light of the afternoon sun shining through the window in Tsunade office gets out of my face.

She looks very tired, multiple files and cups on her desk show she's probably been here for awhile.

Lady Tsunade sighs, setting down a folder with the information on Sayuris aunt and cousins. "You can go with Asuma and Akida, they'll need your tracking skills-."

"What about Sayuri?" I interject

"Sayuri needs to stay in the village. she just recently got rescued from being kidnapped, and I agreed to a rather large non traditional squad to go after her. I'd prefer she stay out of danger until we're sure she's made a full recovery. I'm sure you'll agree with me"

I sigh and nod. I want her safe but I also know that she'll be really pissed about not being included, I mean, it is her family after all. But I know her too well to assume she'll stay here, Ill have to find someone to make sure she doesn't leave the village, at least unprotected.

I bow towards Lady Hokage and dismiss myself, almost running into Ronin on my way out the door.
He rubs his eyes tiredly but it looks like he's cleaned up from this morning. A new vest and clean headband along with a bag slung across his shoulder show that he's probably getting mission details.

"Hey man, where you off too? We just got back"
I pat him on the shoulder as I move to the side so we can continue on our way.

He shrugs, "I'm leading a team on a B-rank mission. Probably only be gone for a handful of days"

"Who's going with you?"

"For this one it's Norio, Sakura, and Sasuke"

I nod "be safe man, I'll see you later"

He nods and continued into the room. I smelt a bit of disdain as we parted ways. We were never great friends, and I know we had that fight after the Hokages death, but I thought that maybe we would've repaired any faulty bridge between us when we rescued Sayuri but apparently not.

I began the short walk back to the hospital, whistling to Akamaru to come join me. I rest my hand on his back as I think.

I want her out of trouble but I know she's going to get into trouble so who can I trust to keep her safe in that trouble...

Up ahead at the hospital entrance Asuma follows Shikamru inside

Ahhhh Shikamaru, I'll have to pull him aside later

"Tsk" Shikamaru sighs after I fill him in, crossing his arms and leaning back against the hospital wall. "Of course I'm going to watch her, I already knew she wasn't going to be active for a week or two and with both her uncles leaving to rescue her aunt and cousins, without " he shakes his head "she wouldn't have that"

"Thank you Shikamaru" I stand up from where I leaned on the opposite wall "with everyone being so busy I just wanted to make sure she had someone watching her Incase when tried to slip off and follow us"

"Well, i can't promise that we won't tag along" Shikamaru says with a smirk as he gets up and walks down the hallway "but you forget, she's more then capable of taking care of herself, I'm not to blame if she gives me the slip"

I sigh and look down at Akamaru "I got myself a troublemaker eh boy?"

Akamaru barks back as we head towards Sayuris room.

Once I figure out this whole mess of getting the story situated I promise it'll start getting better. But seriously leave some recommendations on what you wanna see with relationships or odd and end little scenes
