Chapter 5 - {5} Dogs, flowers and memories

IRENE'S POV

We got back to town and after a little while a white pup came running up to Taso and they started circling each other. I stared at them for a couple of seconds before a kid came running up to us "This pouch must belong to you" I asked before he could say anything, not taking my eyes off the two canines, now playfully barking and growling at each other. I let out a small chuckle, looking up at him "it seems like the two took an interest in each other, hmm" I simply said with a soft smirk.

"Gomen(sorry), Akamaru just took off all of a sudden.-"

'Must be the pouches name' I thought to myself

"Hey, it seems like Akamaru and your pouch are getting along quiet well so how bout we could do the same. what ya say hot stuff. hmm." he flirted

"Yeah it is hot out today" I brushed off nonchalantly "and plus I just meet ya and so far, your not my type" I replied bit cold and deadpanned, making him anime fall 'yesh,burn much' I chuckled a bit.

he then recover faster than I expected and said "sorry, I guess I shouldn't have been that straight forward" he said rubbing his neck bit embarrassed a bit "let me try again. Hi I'm Inazuka Kiba and that's my best friend Akamaru" he introduced pointing to him and the white puppy.

"I'm Irene and that's Tasokare" I introduce myself and my partner

"I never seen a ninkin like that" he commented

"ninkin?" I questioned

"Its another name for ones ninja hound" he clarified

"Oh, no. Taso's just a normal wolf. See I found him on the outskirts of where I use to live, see I found him starved and separated from his pack so I deiced to adopt him." I explained "he's no, uhm, ninkin or whatever it is."

+++++++++++++

after my interaction with the kid that I admit he nice yes. but dude take a shower once in a while, he smells like wet dog....ugh. I'm just happy Taso could make a new friend at lest. What was I talking about, oh yes; I was walking when an arrangement of flower caught my eye. there were Hibiscus and Irises my two favorite types of flowers

"can I help you?" a voice said, I jumped a bit cause I didn't notice the blonde girl sneak up behind me

I gave a hum turning my head towards her "sorry, I didn't see ya." I said sheepishly

"That's ok. I can help you if you want.Tell ya the meaning of the flowers your looking at perhaps" she offered, I nodded slightly "those flowers there-" she pointed at the bundle I was looking at "-they're hibiscuses, Hibiscus are know to generally mean may symbolize youth, beauty, success, glory, or femininity. those in particular, The purple hibiscus flower meaning is linked to knowledge and wisdom. Purple blooms may also be associated with mystery."

she took a short pause before continuing "The other one generally means eloquence, hope, wisdom, communication and faith. that one in particular means, are a known symbol of faith and hope" she explained

"cool" I simply said, Tasokare suddenly let out a small, playful yelp making me look down at him "What is it boy?" I cooed "I guess I haven't introduced myself" I muttered "I'm Irene and this is Tasokare"

"Oh, isn't he just the cutest" the blonde cooed "I'm ino by the ways" she added

"nice to meet ya ino" I softly said with a small head tilt and closed eyed smile

"you too remind me of a friend I have he has a partner like yours" she commented

"his name may not be Kiba. would it?"

"how did you know" the blonde, ino said but surprised

"because I ran into him earlier . Taso and his dog became instant friends" paused tilting my head thoughtfully "Akamaru I think his name was." I simply said

__________________________

after meeting Ino and buying some flowers Taso and I took a walk around wandering around, 'hmm, there's so may names' I thought as I found myself in front of a large stone slab, maybe a memorial of some sort.

I was about to walk away when I heard Tasokae bark like crazy. "What is it boy?" I said above a whisper, bending down to him

"hey" my eyes drifted where the voice came from seeing a lazy eyed, gray haired guy with a mask cover like half his face flashing a closed eyed smile

"uh, am I interupting something?" I awkwardly say 'where did he come from? damn he's was so quiet I didn't even hear him aproch. what are you saying he's a ninja, there surprise to be quiet as hell' I mentally said.

"No not at all." he smiled "who's are you? I haven't seen you around?" he asked with a serious undertone.

'man there's no need to be Suspicious of a child, right?!' I raised an eyebrow at the mans so serious tone, giving a deadpanned look. After a short silence I responded "I'm Irene and that's Tasokare my partner" introducing ourselves. "If you think were somewhat of any threat to you or the village than you got us wrong. we're just passing by your small, humble abode." I replied with underline sass. "anyways You know our names how bout you, what's your name?" I asked

"Hatake Kakashi" the gravity defying haired guy said

"hmm, nice to meet you Kakashi" I said before turning heel and walking off Taso following behind me.
