Scientist of Konoha

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. Yeah... uh... sorry for not updating for like half a year. I'm not going to make any excuses because I don't have any. I will try to update at a faster pace from now on. No promises though. Sorry this part is short.

I was awoken with a splitting headache. Confusion crept up on me. Where am I? Why does the ground feel wet and muddy? Maybe it would help if I opened my eyes. As my eyes slowly creak open, I feel something wet slide across my left cheek. Startled, I look to my left and find big animalistic blue eyes staring at me. I sigh with relief,

"Hey Akira." I say. She retracts her tongue from my cheek. Wait... how did I get here again. And furthermore, where am I? I look around and trees enter my vision. My memories start to come back to me and I gasp while jumping to my feet. Excruciating pain erupts through my head so I sit back down slowly. Akira comes over to me and nudges my cheek with her nose. "Akira, what happened?" I asked, closing my eyes and placing my hand over my forehead. I hear rustling and I open my  eyes slightly. I see Akira shift nervously and an auburn puffball comes into view. I then notice two other puffballs of various colors. "Akira, explain." I said in a stern voice.

"Well... I kind of... tookoffintotheforesttogivebirthtomypups." She replied, speeding through the end. However, I heard every word of it.

"Akira... So you are telling me you ran away, making me worry sick, and gave birth to pups I didn't even know you were carrying?" I asked her in a venomous tone. She shifted nervously and that was all the answer I needed. I stood up, despite the painful protests my body was giving me, and walked over to the pups. I knelt down to softly pet one of them. Its impossible to stay mad when there is something cute around. This one was yellowish-brown colored except for his/her paws, tail, ears, and nose which were white. The pups' eyes were not opened and they could not yet communicate. The other pup was pure white like Akira. I had not known that Akira was pregnant. I looked over to Akira, who was hanging her head in shame and guilt. She really made me worry. I even flew around for her. How did I even survive the fall?

"Akira how did I survive the fall?" I questioned. She looked up at me slightly surprised.

"Fall?" She tilted her head to the side in confusion.

"Yes, I was flying around, looking for you and I got tired and fell out of the sky." I say, making exaggerated hand gestures to explain better.

"I don't know what you are talking about." Akira started, " I found you lying on the floor here and decided to wake you up." That's weird... I don't seem to have any bad injuries either. I shake my head slightly. I have a feeling I'm not going to figure it out anytime soon so I decide to focus on the task at hand. I smirk at Akira.

"So Akira." I start out in a playful tone. "Who's the father?" Akira's eyes widen and I swear I can almost see her fur turn red. She lets out a little yelp.

"W-w-what do you mean?" She asks while letting out what would be equivalent to a nervous chuckle. That makes my smirk grow wider.

"Come on Akira, you can tell me." I say. "Is it that German Shepard you were always staring at?" At that she shook her head furiously. "It is isn't it?" I questioned once more. She reluctantly nodded her head. I knew it! I giggle profusely and bang the ground with my fist.

"It's not funny!" She barks out. I wipe away the moisture that built up in my eyes from laughing and quieted my giggling.

"Anyway, what did you name them?" I ask, looking fondly at the pups. She calmed down a little before replying.

"I haven't yet." She says. "I was going to wait for you to see them." I bring my hand up to my chest.

"I'm flattered!" I exclaim. She huffs in annoyance and I go to examine the pups once more. they all seem to have fallen asleep. Even with all the chaos happening around them. Soooo... we should probably get out of here. I remind Akira of this fact and she nods her head in agreement. "I'll help you carry the pups. We can figure out their names later." I say as I go to grab the auburn colored pup.

We end up going back with one pup in each of my hands and one pup in her mouth.
