Is he really still alive?
"It couldn't have been right?I mean he's been dead for five years.I attended his funeral..I-it must've been my mind playing tricks on me.Y-y eah that's it. But the way he looked at me when he saw me,it just had to be him.I-I just don't know any more."The blond kunoichi said to no one in particular. It had been five years since he died and she still couldn't get over him."Come on pull yourself together Ino. it's not like the two of you were dating."Then in a whisper so quiet only she could hear it she added."At least…not in reality. Oh well."she said suddenly perking up."Gotta go open the flower shop.I wonder how my father is doing?"She was about to open the door when he passed by her again. That long,blond hair that's spiky and wild yet easily tamed,those cerulean eyes that shimmer like the sun's rays reflecting off the ocean and those 3 distinctive whisker marks on the right side of his face. All of that combined with his signature clothing colour combination of orange and black.
She was sure it was time she decided to find out for sure so she started to follow went all the way up to the hokages office which was strange,but what was stranger was that none of the guard nins stopped him or looked to be in disbelief. When she made it through all the security checkpoints and reached the door she layed her ear on it.'I never thought I'd stoop as low as eavesdropping'She though. For awhile there was nothing really interesting about the conversation until he started to get angry. That's when something he yelled made her remember what Sakura had once told her right before his funeral."He never showed any respect to Lady Tsunade"Sakura said."He always called her Granny for some reason."When she didn't hear a punch connecting that made her sure it was him.'I wonder why she puts up with that?'She asked herself.'At any rate Sakura will want to hear this.'She told herself as she ran down through the building and out onto the street.
She found Sakura just a few blocks from the Hokage's building."Sakura!"She yelled"Hey Sakura!"'Why isn't she listening?'"Billboard!"Sakura finally turned her head knowing that insult could only come from one person."Ino-pig."Sakura scoffed. Ignoring the insult Ino ran up to her."I've got something really important to tell you and the others."Ino said."Gather all our friends including Konhamaru and his friends as well as all our sensei's aside from Lady Tsunade and tell them to meet me at the flower shop in 30 minutes."
Sakura,puzzled,agreed and ran off to tell everyone.
30 minutes later everyone was crammed inside the Yamanaka's flower shop. Sakura looked all around seeing if she missed anyone.'Lets see.'She thought.'Neji,Hinata,Lee,Tenten,Kiba,Shino,Shikamaru,Choji,Kakashi sensei,Gai sensei,Kurensi sensei,Iruka sensei,Konahamaru,Moegi and Udon. All present and accounted for.'As Ino walked up to the counter everyone turned to look at her.
