"Argh...he's so annoying"

"hey kid"

"AH!"

"You shouldn't talk bad about boss while i'm here. I have to tell him EVERYTHING that you say"

"Why are you here though?"

"boss wants to make sure you dont try anything"

"Geez pakkun your boss has zero trust in me"

"I couldn't agree more kid. now where to?"

"I believe I should go to Ichiraku to meet up with my brother now. C'mon I'll buy you some food" Naruko gestured for pakkun to jump on her shoulder and he obeyed. she decided a walk would be nice instead of being lazy.

"Can't you just teleport pup?"

"yeah but I wanna walk ttebane? and pup?"

"yeah you're still a pup"

"makes sense. Hey pakkun do you think I can summon a young panther?"

"panther? You can summon panthers? You're full of surprises pup." Naruko giggled and stopped at the Yamanaka flower shop. She entered and instantly heard a voice.

"Welcome to- Oh! Naruko! What are you doing here?" She turned her head and was now facing forward with Ino. Ino and Naruko had made up since the academy and became good friends.

"Oh I was just going to get some flowers to place at a gravestone"

"Oh okay! What flowers would you like?"

"Just a pack of Statices"

"Statices? Good choice. those represent remembrance" Pakun said.

Ino headed off to an area in the store and soon came back with a pack of statice flowers. she placed them on the counter and gave the price. Naruko paid for the flowers and said my goodbyes to ino. She began walking to the cemetery when pakkun asked her a question.

"Who are the flowers for?"

"Lord Fourth"

"You didn't know lord fourth. why would you place flowers on his grave?"

"I dont know. I just feel close to him, this was the only place I have ever been able to talk about my problems in. I feel relaxed when i'm here. Lord fourth protected the village against the nine-tails, and finding out that he was also killed by it really made me feel bad"

"So you have been giving him flowers because you blame yourself?" Pakkun asked
