Hiya black fox here *waves* the story is written in Akamaru's POV hope you enjoy it ^.^ ( Kiba and Akamaru are my favorite Naruto characters xD)

I'll wait for your return, even if I die waiting, Its been eight years, but I'll continue to anticipate your return after all your not just my master, your my best friend.

It felt like not too long ago, the day you were assigned on a mission. I wanted to go too, but you told me to stay. I obeyed unwillingly, after all I would follow my master to the ends of the earth. But you insisted I could not go, so I obeyed my master faithfully.

You patted me on the head and gave me a hug, it felt nice.

"Don't worry bout me Akamaru, I'll be back before you know it, just wait for me ok buddy." You said cheerfully with your usual grin.

I tilted my head sadly, I would miss you.

"Aw Come on don't be that way, I promise you I'll return, take care Akamaru." With those words you ruffled my fur and went off on your mission.

I was worried, after all on every mission you went on I was there. Now you were on your own. We were together no matter what. Sure you were reckless and wild at times but that's just one of the things that make you Kiba, and I wouldn't want it any other way.

I sat at the gate everyday from dawn till dusk awaiting your return, but you never did return, at night I would walk Hinata home to make sure she would be ok. I knew you liked her, no matter how much you denied it, you liked the girl, And I would do anything to protect her, if she makes you happy then I'll protect her for you.

Both of you would look cute together, I mean the punk and the princess it's a classic.

Days turned to weeks, and week turned to months, but still there was no sign of your return.

Soon months faded into years, yet still I would sit at the gate awaiting my masters return, a dog without his master is like toast without its filling.

It was incomplete. It was empty.

As the years went on I grew weak and couldn't move around as much, I slowly walked towards the gate and took one last look at everything around me.

I was so tired now, too tired.

I looked back on the happy times we spent together, it was full of laughter, it made me wag my tail in joy, I closed my eyes, I waited for you till the moment my heart stopped beating, but I never saw you again.

Master I miss you and I'm willing to follow you till my last breath, simply because you're my master and I love you.

Nothing will ever change that.
