*Shiro's POV*
I watched Sasuke and Naruto try to beat each other by trying to climb up a tree "Damn, they can't climb the trees?" I said dumbfounded as I sweatdropped at their stupidity "Always knew I was surrounded by idiots" I muttered sighing softly as my ears twitch as a cricket chirped loudly in the distance, I looked over at Shū sighing softly "I'm gonna go and put Shū to bed, so once you guys reach the top of the trees, come back to Tazuna's place.... alright?" I said which made the two nod as I picked up Shū and walked away.
*Sakura's POV*
"Tazuna-san" a man's voice said which made me and Tazuna look over at a man named Giichi "Yes, what is it Giichi?" Tazuna asked "I'm quitting, we should just stop building the bridge so we won't get attacked by Gatō" Giichi said making Tazuna shake his head quickly, I was quite shocked how this village was poverty.

~Shiro's POV*
I sighed softly as I exited the house "You better be back before dinner" Tsunami shouted from the kitchen "Alright!" I shouted back as I decided to walk to the poor village of hidden in the waves.
As I reached the small shops I watched as little kids try to get some food, I frowned slightly until I herd a cry of pain so I looked around noticing a little boy was getting kicked and stabbed by adults so I ran over "Hey, leave him alone!" I shouted as I pushed the adults away from the young kid which made the adults snarl at me, "What are you doing kid?! He's a monster!" one of the adults said which made me lightly growl at the adults "He's no monster!" I shouted my tails waving behind me angrily "Leave before I kill you pieces of scum!" I snarled which made the adults frown and leave.
I turned around looking down at the young boy noticing he had red hair and two mismatch eye colors which are red and yellow like gold. "You alright kid?" I asked softly which made the boy flinch before looking up at me in awe "Your like me!" the boy said in awe, I chuckled lightly knowing what he meant since I was a kitsune, and he was a neko. "I guess your right kitty" I teased which made the boy pout "My name isn't kitty, baka" he said which made me raise my eyebrow "What's your name then? I can't keep calling you kitty, kitty~" I teased once more making the little boy blush faintly in embarrassment before pointing at me with a slight glare "I'm Hide! remember the name mister!" Hide said pouting before looking at me with a look of curiosity "What's your name mister?" Hide asked tilting his head to the side which made me lightly smile "I'm Shiro Kitsune, it's nice to meet you Hide" I greeted which made Hide grin happily as he weakly got up and jumped into my arms which made my eyes widen since I wasn't prepared for this so I fell down as I herd Hide giggle "Your warm" I herd him mutter before he started snuggling up to me and purring silently, before falling asleep.
I sweatdropped before faintly smiling "I don't blame him for being tired, but I have to get him into a bath so I can scrub off all the blood and dirt on him before wrapping his wounds up and getting him in warm clothes" I muttered quietly as I picked myself up with Hide in my arms. I decided to head back to the others so I turned around and left the poor area as I quietly listened to Hide's quiet snores.
~Timeskip no jutsu~
I entered the house noticing that the room was silent that you could hear crickets chirp or a pin drop which made me sweatdrop but I didn't want to stop the silence since it was rare once in a while. As I entered my shared bedroom that I shared with Shū, I entered the bathroom waking up Hide carefully which made him whine quietly before yawning as he tiredly opened his eyes. "Hm?" he hummed as he looked up at me before looking at the bath tub "Water?" he asked me confused which made me lightly chuckle "Your taking a bath if that's okay" I said which made Hide instantly nod which made me take his clothes,shoes, and socks off before setting him into the water which made Hide purr lightly at the warmness of the water.
After I got him all cleaned up I got him out of the tub ignoring the fact that the water was now dirty. I dried him up before wrapping him up in the towel and took him into the room, I placed Hide gently onto the bed before going over to my bag I brought. I looked through the clothes before grabbing a pair of boxers and a black and red kimono, I went back over to Hide and dressed him up which made him giggle "I'm pretty" he said happily which made me chuckle in amusement "Yep, now, how about we get some dinner?" I asked which made Hide confused and shock "Food?" Hide questioned excitedly which made me nod "Yep, food" I agreed which made Hide grin "Then let's go!" He said as he ran opened the bedroom door before darting out the room with me following him.
~Scene change~
I sweatdropped at the others "Are they seriously puking?" I muttered to myself as I watched Naruto and Sasuke eat food but puke it back up, Hide and Shū were talking to each other ignoring everyone around them.
"Idiots" I herd the cockroach mutter as she sweatdropped at Naruto and Sasuke. The cockroach then looked at the picture "Huh who's that?" Sakura asked which made everyone freeze, Inari got up instantly and left the room which made Tsunami. "That their is Kaiza" Tazuna stated before telling us the story of 'the land where the hero once lived'.
