A Grassy Field
Disclaimer: I own neither Naruto nor Bark!
A/N: I heard this song and thought that I should give sad fics a chance. My very sad attempt at one.

The mission had been simple enough in the beginning. Naruto, Kiba, Akamaru, and Neji had been assigned to track down some C-class missing-nin. However, no sooner had they been located then it was discovered that their leader was an S-class criminal. Soon things had erupted into a huge fight.
"Kiba! Look out!"
At Naruto's words, Kiba looked up to see a fuuma shuriken racing towards him. Realizing that there was no time to dodge, he held his arms in front of him and prepared for the weapon to hit him. But instead of the shuriken cutting him, he was knocked over by something large and heavy. Opening him eyes, he froze. "A-Akamaru!" Akamaru was lying in front of Kiba with the fuuma shuriken buried into his side. A cut that deep was unquestionably fatal. No longer caring about the enemy, Kiba gathered Akamaru into his lap.
Hold me one last time
In your loving arms, my friend
"Akamaru... What were you thinking?"
Kiss me, master kind
For time and fate we cannot bend
The dog let out a soft whine, as if to say that everything would be alright no matter what happened to him; that Kiba would move on without him.
Know that where I go
I will wait for you
Until you cross that sea of blue
Where we'll both run on legs made new
And jump as pups and children do
Kiba was shaking and tears were threatening to spill. He ignored the sounds of the battle. Nothing but Akamaru mattered at the moment.
In a grassy field
That never ends
His grip on his companion's fur tightened. He couldn't lose his best friend.
Hold me gently near
These old eyes can't see or smile
The tears Kiba had been fighting finally won and landed softly on Akamaru's fur.
Kiss me with a tear
I know I've walked my final mile
An awkward grin appeared on his face. "What are you talking about? You're going to make it through this and be good as new."
I am not afraid
To softly fly away
And press these tender words you say
Inside my heart until that day
When we forever young will play
Akamaru let out another whine.
In a grassy field
That never ends
"Look at me Akamaru!" Kiba was in near hysterics now and wrapped his arms around his friend.
Hold me
Kiss me as I close my eyes
"Don't talk like that! You're not going to die!"
I am not afraid
To softly fly away
And press these tender words you say
Inside my heart until that day
When we forever young will play
Kiba rocked himself back and kept on insisting that Akamaru would be fine.
In a grassy field
That never ends
Akamaru gave a faint bark and closed his eyes.
Hold me as I die
Kiss me as I close my eyes

What do you guys think? Was it actually sad, or was it just pathetically corny?
