Sally was a big dog lover, she had many dogs and there was six of them to be exact. Sally usually would walk her own dogs but today she couldn't she was completely sick. Sally had to go to the doctors or she would not get better, she had to worry about her dogs though. So that made Sally put a mission in for a ninja to come help her. It would be something simple, she knew those existed since one of her friends told her about when the ninja's pulled out all her weeds.

Sally was waiting in her living room with four of her dogs. It was not far from the door, so that was the reason she was there. The person she asked for could not be late since she couldn't for her appointment. Sally was smart she made sure they came thirty minutes before they had to, so in case they were a little late she would be ready.

Sally was all dressed and ready. The dogs were ready for their walk as well. Buster and Conner were the only two dogs not by her side, they were probably the most trouble making off all of them. There were out side.

[Nafan~]

Samuru walked slowly down the street, head buried in the mission briefing. After reading it, he had to admit, he was a little dissapointed. Walking some sick lady's dog was a servant's job. He looked up from the briefing, checking the street he was in. He was surprised that he had wandered, completely unknowingly, into the lady's front yard. "Well, time to get started.." he muttered to himself. He walked up to the front door, and knocked on it twice. The scrabbling of paws could be heard as the four dogs raced through the house to bark at him through the door. Even more surprising, was that two dogs had somehow come from behind. They bowled Samuru over in their mischief, that was when Samuru knew this was going to be a long day.

Pushing the two dogs away as they constantly came in to lick and crawl all over him, Samuru knew this was going to be more difficult than he previously thought. He raised his head as the lady's footsteps could be heard coming to the door. Her little shuffle indicated perfectly that she was in a bad way. Samuru quickly pushed the dogs off of him for the umpteenth time, and sat up. He waved happily at the woman, speaking a cheery "Hello"

[sazhuy]

"Hello sir, you must be the one that took my mission. I am very grateful. It should only be for today." Sally gave a nice sweet smile to him. She opened the door so he could come in. The dogs were not going which she saw as a problem for the young ninja so she pointed and said "IN!" All of her dogs went inside into the living room.

"Don't mind them, they are all friendly dogs. As long as you don't attack me that is." Sally gave a slight nervous laugh to that. Someone had tried playing around with her in a more harassing manner, well they were in the hospital the next day.

"Please come in and sit, we can discuss any questions you have in there." Sally made a gesture to the living room where all her dogs were sitting peacefully waiting for their master. After the boy got in she shut the door and followed herself. Sally sat with her dog and waited to see if the ninja had any questions.

[Nafan~]

Samuru daudled in after Sally, taking a good look at her house as he walked by. He examined the family photos, most of which had at least one dog in it. Samuru found himself thinking that this lady was a little crazy having six dogs. But other peoples living styles were none of his business, so he kept his nose out of it. When she asked if he had any questions, Samuru could only think of two important ones. They had been bugging him ever since he looked at the mission briefing.

"Sally is your name, isn't it? I have only two questions. Firstly, where should I take the dogs on their walk? Secondly, how long do you think I should take? Oh and also, should I give them any treats? Are they allergic to any type of grass or wood? How energetic are your dogs? Should I keep them going at a run or at a walk?"

Okay, so two turned into twenty, but Samuru didn't think that would matter. While he was talking, Samuru sat in one of the lounge chairs near where Sally was sitting. He looked at her expression, wondering whether he had asked anything stupid. To him all the questions were perfectly fine.

[sazhuy]

Sally sort of giggled, two questions. She was glad he cared to get his job done right, that was admirable. "Yes, my name is Sally. I could name all the dogs for you to but unless you think you need them it will be fine." Sally continued to do a friendly smile trying to make sure everything was going smoothly.

"Now for the rest of your questions. It won't matter where you take them, I walk all over Konoha so they know the whole town so that is more up to you. I would say an hour walk since I do two half hour ones, you could split it up if you like but an hour would work just fine." Sally was not sure when she would be back so having the dogs go on both their walks first would be beneficial to her. Sally also was not sure how well she would be to try and take them on another walk when she got home.

"You can give them treats but I would wait till after you are done walking. This one," she said as she petted her black dog "he can be a handful and very needy if you give him treats. The two you met outside are the handfuls, they are the tricksters of the bunch. they will try and pull you in different directions. Conner the big orange fluffy one, he is the hardest to be obey by anyone." Conner's ears popped up when he heard his name, looking around all excited but knowing he was not being called so he stayed where he was. "FYI the brown one here is the other one named Buster if you did not remember."

"Walk would probably be the better time since if you try to run they will pull you. They might also lead you all over town and that could be tiring, these are not weak dogs by the way." Sally was worried that he might get over powered. It would be probably tiring but it should be an easy task as long as he did not lose a dog.

[Nafan~]

Samuru smiled when she said that they weren't weak. He didn't quite believe her, after all, they were only dogs. He thanked her for answering his questions, and went to get the leads. After taking the leads from their obvious place on the table beside them, he went to place them on the dogs. The more placid dogs were easy to clip their leads on to, but the two dogs that were the most trouble gave him a hard time. He ran up the stairs, down the stairs, through the kitchen, into the laundry, out of the laundry all just to get the leads on the two dogs. The dogs thought it was great fun to run away from him and watch him struggle. Samuru did not. Eventually, he tricked them by whistling when he was on the stairs. When they came running past him, he jumped on them and got the leads on. Samuru recalled that he has thought this was going to be a hard day. He changed his mind and thought it was going to be damn near impossible to walk these dogs without atracting half the village's attention. Scrap that, the country's. He knew this was not going to end well for him. He smiled at Sally after his lengthy ordeal of leashing the dogs. "You can go now if you want, everything is under control" he said this through clenched teeth because he knew that this day was going to be far from good. He went to the door, four dogs walking behind him, two running ahead. He opened the door with a dull exspression on his face. He was hating this mission already.

[ooc]
Uhh, I am gunna be away for a while, unless you don't reply untill like.. two days after today, we might have to put this mission on pause or something. I am gunna be away for four or five days.

[sazhuy]

Sally laughed a little while this boy tried to get the dogs ready. If he had asked her it could have been done already but least now he would hopefully not underestimate all these dogs. "Well it does look like you can handle yourself. Thank you very much try not to get dragged to far." Sally just thought about someone who could not control these dogs and being brought all over town.

Sally turned and looked at her dogs, even the two mischievous ones were now there looking at her. "Please behave all of you" she looked at the two that gave the trouble most of all, they knew it too but it was not like them to listens all that well.

"Well I am off have a nice day" Sally said as she opened the door and left. She did not have much time since she stayed while he tried to get the dogs ready, she was glad she called him early or she would be late.

Several of the dogs looked sad, they loved Sally and all of them did but a few of them a little to much where a little time away from her was depressing. The dogs all looked at the boy wondering what was going to happen now, they were all ready to go for a walk so was it that going to happen now?

[Nafan~]

"Come on then, off ya go!" Samuru barked, quite ironically, at the dogs. He walked them out the front door after opening it, and strode off down the road. He had to restrain the two troublesome dogs who always fought their way to the front of the pack of six. They pulled him and the other dogs along while they walked. Samuru jerked on their leads, trying to pull them back.

He had barely gotten to the end of the street before his good pants were dirty. He was not happy about that. He used the hand holding the docile dog's leads to brush down his good overcoat and regretted putting on formal clothing for this particular mission. But he loved formal clothing, especially these old suits. His attention was snapped back to the dogs as they all tried to piss on the same pole. They began to crawl all over each other to let fly on the unfortunate slab of timber. He winced as six streams of piss flicked about in the air while they fought for dominance. Eventually, the ordeal was over, the pole, and the pavement, were splattered with six dog's piss, and they all stank of it.

He turned the corner, and realised that after all this trouble he had only just left the street. Then he realised he hadn't said goodbye to Sally. He silently berated himself for his bad manners while the dogs walked ahead. Those stupid trouble makers wouldn't stop jerking him along. He was nearly ready to walk up there, knock them uncontious, and carry them the rest of the way.

[sazhuy]

OoCShow

The dogs count as npcs, so rping with them is my job not yours. Don't worry about changing the posts you already made. This is more for future posts.

The two dogs both caught something that interested them. What was worse about these two dogs was they could get the other dogs whiled up. One of them went one way and then the other went the opposite direction, and each took two dogs with them. Not caring they were about to almost pull the guy in half who was holding them if he was not physically fit enough to handle it. All of the dogs were pulling with most of their might if not all.

Half were going after a squirrel which was going all crazy, which was not helping the dogs attention spans at all. If anyone cared it looked like it got into something and maybe was drunk since it was not acting normal.

The other half saw a hot dog stand. It smelt good too, the bad part is if they got away they would probably take everything from the man they could. The man in the stand had not noticed the dogs that were trying to get to him yet.

[Nafan~]

Samuru looked at the situation he was in. He could see the dogs splitting into two groups before him. He also saw the dogs that were leading them. He cursed under his breathe while trying to think of where they were headed. He looked at the squirrel, quite unsure about its unusual behaviour. He then looked over at the hotdog stand, taking note of the oblivious man.
He looked from the dogs, back to their targets. He began to feel the pull on his arms. Once again he regretted wearing his third best suit. He swapped three leads into his left hand, and tried to pull them back. With his genin average strength, there was no chance of making them return, only slowing them down. He thought he might be able to get one group if he had two hands. He couldn't let go of one though, the squirrel might have rabies, and the hotdog stand would just be a disaster. He started to think to himself. The dogs were going to tear him apart. They were going to break free. They were going to cause a major scene. He was going to fail his mission. No, calm down.." Samuru said under his breath. He had to calm down before he let them go. The pull was starting to get hard to resist. This was his last chance. He took a deep breath. "Hey! Hotdog guy! Run! I'm here to assassinate you using these dogs!" He hoped to God that would make him run away. Then, he took a risk. He lifted his right leg to the hand that held the squirrel group's leads. He quickly hooked a shuriken onto his pinky finger. Then he did his best to throw the shuriken in the general direction of the squirrel. If this made the distance, he was in the clear.

[sazhuy]

The hot dog guy now noticed the dogs and the man who was screaming at him. Why the hell would someone come and kill him? He did not care, he grabbed his stand and left. He was going to find the nearest security and tell them what was going on. No one was going to threaten him and get away with it if he could help it. Although the man was not that smart for the sheer fact if someone was going to assassinate you, you would not think they would tell you, so something should have clued him into that but the hot dog man was not that smart.

A shuriken almost hit the squirrel and made him come out of his stooper. He then ran up the nearest pole trying to get away from the dogs he now just noticed, these dogs were smart when it came to hunting they did not make much noise. Now that the hot dog guy was not there the other half of the pack of dogs decided they were going to help chase the squirrel as well. Now they were all going in the same direction straight for the pole.

[Nafan~]

He wasn't in the clear. The shuriken had made it, but the squirrel hadn't run far enough away. The dogs were heading towards the same target. Samuru's arm swung around his body to slam into the other one. He almost dropped all six leads, but gathered himself before he could do so. He quickly maneuvered his hands so he held all six leads in both hands. "One down one to go." He gasped out the words while he pulled with all his might on the dogs. The dogs would'nt be stopped by such a tug and he knew it. If only there was some way. He was starting to get pulled towards the pole. He looked around, there had to be something he could do. Then something clicked in his mind. He quickly circled around towards a tree in the piece of garden that the squirrel was in. He quickly moved onto the other side of the tree to the dogs. Now he had leverage. He gave the dogs one last pull with all the strength left in his arms, shoulders and back. The leads snapped taught against the thick tree trunk and began to make disheartening rubbing noises.

[sazhuy]

The squirrel found a hole in the tree and hid there. While all around the tree dogs barked up a storm surrounding the tree. Jumping up and falling down trying to get to the squirrel but no matter how hard they tried nothing was prevailing it was not going to stop those dogs. They all wanted that squirrel and nothing was going to stop them, least for now.

Two men walked up to the ninja with the dogs. "Excuse me sir we hear you were threating one of the civilians here."

"You know death threats are against the law you know boy?" The other man said a little more gruff. "Can't you keep these dogs taken care of?" These two were also ninjas but they had never seen the boy around before it was big village and these two just kept to their job of taking care of village security.

[Nafan~]

Sorry sirs. I am a genin of this village, tasked to walk these hyperactive dogs across the village. They were about to ravage that mans hotdog cart and the only thing I could think of doing was threatening him so he would run." Samuru said all this with grunts in between, trying to pull the dogs back off the tree. "If you don't mind, would you please help me pull them clear of this tree? There is a squirrel in it that they are trying to maul." Samuru continued to pull on the dogs leads, getting more tired each time he tried. At that moment, he hated those dogs. He hated the hotdog man and he hated the squirrel. Why did everything have to go wrong for him? Why did he have to take care of some stupid dogs while such a lovely lady was sick and had to make her way to the hospital? These questions went unsaid as he looked pleadingly at the other shinobi, and strained to prise the dogs from the tree.

[sazhuy]

The two men were not sure if the boy was completely telling the truth but helping him could not hurt. They both took two of the dogs each, they each took one of the mischievous dogs as well. They knew if he was telling the truth this was his mission so they would only somewhat help the boy but he had to make the plans. "So what now?"

"We will help you for a little while till we calm them down but you have to let us know what to do. Mainly for this is one of your missions right? If so this is your responsibility so you have to direct us, which is giving you more ninja skills." These two were never for not helping a fellow ninja but they liked seeing them grow. Minor help was only thing they would give someone mostly for a mission that was not theres and was probably pretty low ranked.

[Nafan~]

Samuru sighed with relief as the number of dogs he had to restrain was reduced to a mere two. Two dogs he could deal with. He looked at the two, and noticed he had docile ones. Finally things were beginning to go his way.
"Thanks for this, having two extra pairs of arms is a real help," Samuru said this as he gestured down the road, looking towards the next corner, "We should take them out of the range of any tempting scents, that should stop them going bazerk." He began to walk ahead, dragging the more placid dogs away from the squirrel and anything else in the street that caught their eye, or their nose. He was making better time now, coming up to the corner and rounding it easily, glad for the two other shinobi assisting him. As he rounded the corner, he turned back to check that they were having no similar problems that he had.

[sazhuy]

The two men did not have much trouble with two dogs a piece. They could see how all six of these dogs could be a challenge, They were sort of glad this was not their mission. They followed the boy to where he lead, getting away was a good idea but they wondered where it would be taken from here.

The dogs were trying to put up a fight. It was not working all to well for the ones the other shinobi were holding. The others were pulling maybe not as hard but near it since it was the middle two dogs the genin was holding. Least it was a nice day for a walk, the clouds looked like there wouldn't be a problem least any time soon.

[Nafan~]

As Samuru rounded the corner, he peeked up at the clock on a wall to his left. Was that the time already!? Half an hour had passed since he had first left the house. He had made it half way! Joy spread through him as he realised that he only had thirty lazy minutes of walking two dogs around left. His eyes trailed over the sky as the clouds drifted slowly by. They then looked at the fragrant yamanaka flower store to one side and even paused for a second to pick a flower from a roadside garden. He wondered if Sally would like the yellow frangipani. He decided that all girls liked frangipani and that she had to love it. He walked on, twirling the flower in his hand, watching the dogs trying to run faster than he was allowing them to, and added a bit more force to his hold. Hopefully the other two shinobi wouldn't leave him for a while, he could get used to this afternoon stroll.

[sazhuy]

The dogs were just wanting to get some exercise so they were trying to get to their destination fast, even though they did not care where it was. The dogs would stop to mark territory every once in a while but then would hurry on to the next spot.

The shinobi were helping this boy till everything got calm again. They arrived outside of a flower store, they had no idea why they were they but it did not matter to them. "Well do you need our help anymore? The dogs have calmed down some." The first ninja said.

"We also need to get back to our job. So unless you need our help we need to go." the other man spoke up. he said it in calm words but they could not do this all day. They had not helped all to long and they knew it but even if they were going to help longer they wanted more information on the matter.

[Nafan~]

Samuru thought his options over a while. He could milk this for all it was worth. He could make them follow him around all day while controlling the most annoying dogs. But he knew it would be wrong. He lifted his head and sighed to the heavens, hoping he would be lucky enough for someone else to come along and help him instead. But they wouldn't, he wasn't that lucky. "Yeah, sure," Samuru put a happy face on to say his words so that the other shinobi might not detect his unhappiness, "You need to get back to your mission, I'll just walk them home on my own." Samuru held his hands out to take the four extra leads, hoping the dogs wouldn't go crazy as soon as he took them.

[sazhuy]

The shinobi's gave away the dogs. They were glad to help him out some. They had their own jobs to do so they had to go, it could be a boring day but they did not like giving evil deeds a chance to happen underneath their noses. It would not be a good thing to tell the Kage that whoops we did not finish our job right because we were helping a younger shinobi on their less ranked mission.

The dogs had not found anything at the moment to trouble them. They just stood around looking at everything around them. Allowing the winds of Konoha blow through their faces they enjoyed that. The dogs were hot panting a lot, since a they did do allot of running already. They could continue for a little while longer though.

[Nafan~]

oocShow

We are in konoha

Samuru looked at them panting and looked around for somewere to get them a drink. He was a bit tired too, so he might take a bit of water for himself. He looked around and found a tap on the side of a building. He may have been happy to drink out of his hands, but the dogs don't have the luxury of being able to cup their paws together. So Samuru needed to find something for them to drink out of. He looked around. His eyes lit up as he found a bucket and he walked over to use it. He picked up the bucket and strolled over to the tap again with the dogs, and filled it up from the tap. He then put the bucket near them and tied their leads to the tap. He then turned the tap on and drank deeply from the water flowing from it. He only needed to get back to Sally's house again and he was done.

[sazhuy]

The dogs drank the water happily. They did try fighting who could get to the one bucket for six dogs. Bumping into everything that got in their way. Each one wanted a drink and they wee going to do whatever they could to get one. When they were finally done all of them were sitting looking at the boy ready to continue their adventure. They did not know what else lay in store for them but they were happy to see what would happen next. One of the dogs was ready to go to the bathroom and it was one of the first done. The dog did not know where else to go, so he went to the bathroom right there and walked away from it trying to look like it was not me look at one of the other dogs.
