Tobi was walking around the forest the base was hidden in.
"Tobi's a good boy, Tobi's a good boy."
Strangely, Tobi was able to make a song with only those four words. Then the bushes rustled. Tobi took out a kunai, ready for a fight. Then, a dog came out.
"A doggy!"
Tobi said cheerfully. The dog looked up at Tobi, and wagged its tail. Tobi walked up to the dog, and reached a hand out, to let the dog sniff him. The large dog sniffed him and continued to wag its tail. Tobi scratched the dog behind its ears, and its tail wagged faster.
"You're a good boy…or girl."
Tobi said. The dog barked. The dog was large, with brown specs all over its body. Its tail was a short stubby one. It looked more like a German short-haired Pointer.
"You seem pretty nice for a hunting dog."
Tobi said. The dog barked again, with a wag of its tail. Tobi kneeled down to its eye level, and hugged it. The dogs' tail wagged faster.
"You're a nice puppy."
Tobi said into its fur.
"I'll call you…."
Tobi trailed off. He never thought of getting a dog.
"What should I name you?"
Tobi asked. The dog sat and tilted its head. Tobi stood up again, brushing the dirt off his knee. Then Konan walked up.
"Hi Tobi-"
She was cut off when she saw the dog.
"Why hello there."
Konan said nicely.
"Tobi, I've seen this dog before. It was here three days ago."
Konan continued. Tobi gasped.
"He of she might be hungry!"
Tobi said.
"The dog's a boy Tobi."
Konan said. The dog stood up and barked.
"I'm not sure if Pein would allow a dog in the base."
Konan said.
"But the dog could fight with one of us."
Tobi said. The dog barked.
"I know, but dogs are huge responsibilities."
Konan said.
"I've got a name for him!"
Tobi said.
"His name could be Hunter!"
Tobi continued. The dog barked.
"Whoa! Slow down Tobi; let's just make sure Hidan doesn't get to the dog okay?"
Konan said.
"His name's Hunter and I will not let Hidan take the adorable puppy."
Tobi said. The dog sat and listened.
"Come on Hunter! Let's go inside the base!"
Tobi said excitedly. Hunter got up and trotted off with Tobi. Konan sighed.
That night, Tobi sat in his and Deidaras room with Hunter.
"I'm glad Leader-sama let me keep you."
Tobi said, hugging Hunters neck. Hunter licked its nose.
"Besides, it only took five hours. That wasn't too long."
Tobi said. Then Deidara walked in.
"What is a dog doing in here?"
He asked.
"Sempai guess what! Leader-sama let me keep Hunter!"
Tobi said happily.
"You named it!?"
Deidara said. Tobi nodded innocently.
"Fine but Hunter will have to sleep outside of our room."
Deidara said.
"Sempai you're so mean."
Tobi said. It was already night, so Tobi set Hunter at their door with a pillow.
"Sempai doesn't want you in there and if I argued, you'd be blown up. So you can guard our room okay Hunter?"
Tobi said. Hunter whimpered.
"Don't worry!"
Tobi said and closed the door.
That morning, Tobi woke up and opened the door the see Hunter obediently lying by the door. The dog wagged its tail.
"Good boy."
Tobi said.
"Good boy?"
Deidara said behind Tobi.
"That f*ckn' dog barked all night long, keeping everyone excluding you awake."
Deidara continued. Tobi turned and looked at Deidara. He had dark bags under his eyes, and his hair was a mess.
"He did? Well then I slept right through it."
Tobi said.
