Puppies 8, Mistake 0

Beep... Beep... Beep!

Sakura opened her jade eyes to see her ceiling fan in the living room. "Ugh!" Sakura grunted. This was the second time this week that she came home from the hospital and fell asleep on the couch.

Sakura works at the hospital as a second in command but was the boss when her master was absent. Tsunade the hokage was her teacher and master. Sakura could still hear her alarm in her room.

Sakura sighed and sat up slowly. Then stretched out all the stiffness in her joints.

Sakura walked into her room and turned off her alarm. Sakura grabbed herself a towel and went ino the bathroom. After a quick shower she changed into tight black shorts, a red sleeveless shirt with the Haruno symbol on the back and a little fanny pack thing. (The thing like in shippuuden)

Sakura walked out of her apartment and locked the door behind her. Sakura walked to the market for some food for that week. Sakura has lived in her surprising big apartment sense Sakura's mom died when she was 16.

That was 2 years ago. Tsunade is like a mother to her and allows her to live there free. Sakura is now used to living on her own and it used to be lonely but Sakura's always at work, training with team 7 or running errands.

Team 7 is pretty big now with Naruto, Sai, Kakashi sensai, Captain Yamato, Sasuke and Herself. Sasuke came back 3 years ago so he has the same freedom as before.

Sakura was picking some tomatoes for dinner with the boys tonight. Sakura was looking at the ripe ones when a sign caught her eye.

Puppies in need of owner!

8 puppies

Breed: Unknown

Price: Free

We must sell these puppies by the end of the 23 of May or they will be put down. The local Pound has them at the front desk please ask for them and their yours! All male!

Sakura read over the sign again. 'May 23... that's today!' Sakura thought. She paid for the food and raced to the Pound to the front desk.

A woman was looking over some files but stopped when Sakura was in front of her. Sakura could hear dogs barking in the back. 'I'll only take one...' Sakura thought. Sakura used to have a puppy but it grew up and died. Sakura was devastate.

"Hello Sakura! How can I help you?" the woman asked. It didn't surprise Sakura that the woman knew her name. Sakura was the hokage's apprentice so she was in the Bingo book and she's saved more lives then taken.

"Um... yes. I was wondering if I could take a look at the puppies if you still have them..." Sakura asked nervously. The woman looked surprised. "Oh! Yes sorry one second." the woman apologized.

She ducked under the huge desk and came back up with a big half cut box. She laid it down on the desk so Sakura could see them.

They were the cutest things ever. Also unique because of their colors and design. The first one had pure black fur and eyes. The fur had some red in it. It was one of the smallest and quietest of them all. Then there was one that was light blue with small eyes. He had 3 dark blue lines on both sides of his neck and was the biggest and one of the most aggressive of them all.

After was a yellow one with sky blue eyes. He was also small and vary active and playful. Then there was one with brown fur with an orange face that brightened his black eyes and whiskers. He was also real small maybe the smallest. A little shy but playful with the others.

Then there was one that was basically white with purple eyes. He seemed to always be in a terrible mood. He was medium sized and looked like he preferred to be alone. The one next to him was also brown with white eyes and was the same as the before him.

Another was half black and half green with green eyes. He was also medium sized and was laid back and helped the black and red one keep them in order. Finally there was an all red one with red eyes and all so laid back and impatient. The blond seemed to look up to this one.

Sakura couldn't help it she loved them all already. "I'll... take them all..." Sakura decided upon. The woman looked pleased. "Thank you for your help! Please have a good day!" the woman said cheerfully.

Sakura sighed. She picked up the box and almost immediately they all stared at her. They did that all the way to the pet store then all the way home. It was a little creepy! 8 puppies just watched her barely moving.

When Sakura closed her front door they seem to come back to life. They all moved to get closer to her like she had some food to give them or something.

Sakura sat on the floor in the living room with the box of puppies in front of her. Once again they all stared at her. Sakura smiled a fake small smile. "Hello little ones..." they all cocked their heads. Sakura almost giggled.

She reached in and picked up the brown and orange one. He seemed scared of her for a minute before getting used to her almost instantly. Sakura smiled and put him in her lap. She then reached for the yellow one.

He came to her instantly. After a minute or so she had nearly all the puppies around her. She reached for the last one. The pretty black and red one. He froze when se touched his silky fur. He was so pretty and just awesome to look at.

Now was the hard part cleaning them all and giving them all names...
