Sakura Haruno has to go on an S-rank mission to explore an island that no one knows Much about.
Little did she know, Sakura was in for the surprise of a lifetime when she stepped foot onto the boat that would take her into the unknown.
Yes this stor...
( I'm trying to make Sakura humorous, let me know what she'd say in these situations)
"Let's do this, give me a minute to get ready though," Haku decided to tag along to help Sakura prepare as the duo and their animals went to Sakura's room. When they entered, Haku was greeted with the scent of cherry blossoms and mint, a combo that surprisingly smelt very sweet and good. As Sakura went to get some extra potions for the commission, he sat at her bedside and played with Akamaru's fluffy dog hair. She heard Sakura tumble and trip over her feet as she tried to carry far too many books in her hands, Haku instinctively caught her just before she fell.
"You seem to be more clumsy than usual, everything okay?" Haku observed with a calm and collected attitude as always, he helped Sakura up straight again and removed his hand from her waist. Sakura couldn't help but bashfully smile and wave her hand around a bit, dismissing the matter rather nonchalantly.
"Just a bit groggy from waking up, nothing too serious," Sakura had gotten some armor on herself now with a completely new set of clothes. Itachi and Akamaru came waltzing up to her in similar apparel.

Haku couldn't help but smile as Itachi leaped up to Sakura's shoulders and smiled excitedly, while Akamaru stayed close to Sakura's side as she placed her sword on her back.
"Like the outfits? I got them made and dyed using the Great Jagras materials I found!" Sakura spoke up with a childish smile, doing a little twirl to show the full outfit. Itachi got a little dizzy and fell into Sakura's arms as she simply laughed in response to the Palico's fall.
"I'll be off then,"
"Stay safe,"
"Sure thing mom." Haku chuckled at her sarcastic response.
~~~~~~~
A chicken.
Sakura has to fight a giant chicken.
She looked at the thing with disbelief.
"It looks like a featherless chicken," Sakura mumbled, causing Itachi to snicker and Akamaru to bark in agreement. Sakura drew her sword and slashed at the oblivious beast, it sliced through with ease. The Ku-Ya-Kul, or giant chicken, squawked in agony before dashing back, digging its talons into the ground then picked up a decently sized rock from the earth floor. And started to thrash it around like a mad man, Sakura barely managed to dodge the uncoordinated attacks as the beast raged on with killed intent. Sakura decided to strike the rock, causing it to shatter.
She took a step forward and plunged her sword into the heart of the giant, featherless, chicken. As it stumbled back, before blood spilled from its mouth, and it tumbled to the ground, lying lifelessly. Sakura found some valuable pieces from the Ku-Ya-Kul, and went back to the camp.
"Took care of the chicken."
"You mean the Ku-Ya-Kul?"
"Yeah that," Handler face-palmed at Sakura's nickname for the monster, closing her notebook before deciding it was time to head back. Sakura nodded in response, when the two turned to head back they heard a clicking noise. Sakura stopped dead in her tracks and looked over her shoulder to lock eye with the green beast from when she first arrived.
"You've gotta be kidding me...it's a Pukie-Pukie," Handler spoke up, taking small steps back as she did so.
"Handler, description please," Sakura replied as she drew her sword, turning on her heel to face the beast head on. Handler opened her notebook again and skimmed through pages as the beast tilted its head in confusion.
"Poison type, super fast and can fly, watch out for its mouth, and don't stay behind it too long." Handler said, closing the notebook and leaping back just in time, a Pukie-Pukie's tail slammed down where she once was. Sakura bolted and slashed down at the beats only for it to move to the side and blast some purple goop from its mouth. Its jaw unhinged like a snake, Sakura rolled to the side, as Itachi went in and got on top of the monster. The Pukie-Pukie thrashed around relentlessly, causing the Palico to fly off and slam into a nearby tree trunk. Sakura landed a blow on the beast, before a red aura encased her sword, as if on instinct she swung it around again and slammed it onto the beast's forehead. It screeched loudly in pain and tumbled back, drool dripping from its mouth before it took to the skies and flew off.
"Follow it! I've never seen a Pukie-Pukie quite this agitated," Handler spoke, racing after the beast with the commander, the man with the bone sword, close behind. Sakura raced over to her unconscious Palico and picked him up gingerly, giving Itachi a healing potion before following the duo that raced ahead. Akamaru picked up Sakura's sword and followed suit.
"Look at it, what is that rock?" The commander whispered from behind some bushes, as the Pukie-Pukie approached a rock twice its size with magma veins extending into it, the trio watched with mild confusion.
"Looks like that one monster we saw, but when we first came here." Handler was taking notes rather swiftly, her pen silently scribbling along the paper.
"Its name is Zorah Magdaros, and it's an elder dragon causing havoc across the new world. We've been tasked to stop it somehow, but have yet to track it down." The commander seemed to be deep in thought as the Pukie-Pukie scratched and screeched at the rock with agitation.
"Let's go for now, let's find another rock like this one and check it out then." Sakura said, they all nodded along and silently creeped away from the scene.
