The next three days passed in basically the same way. Dakota would get up early (Causing me to get up as well) then we'd eat a light breakfast and head off. She would only stop for a few minutes two or three times a day before setting up camp at night.
I was snoozing on Dakota's shoulder when we arrived at the village. What woke me up was the sudden amount of noise. This village was big but not as big as Konaha. I looked around sleepily until I heard Dakota speak to me.
"Alright Skye first things first we get something to eat...now where should we eat?" She asked looking around her. I looked around as well. Everything seemed so good. Sighing she said "Man I'm not used to so many choices anymore..."
I looked at her confused. What did she mean by that? I was snapped out of it when she began to walk towards a ramen bar. She sat down and ordered. Looking around her surroundings she noticed that a few people were watching her. She hated that.
Dakota reached up to me and lifted me off of her shoulder. Sitting me down on the empty seat next to her she said "We won't stick around here long. I just need to get a few things." A few minutes latter our food arrived. She looked at me for a minute then said "Sorry Skye...but I don't think they'd appreciate you eating up here." She then set my bowel on the ground next to her.
Huffing in annoyance I jumped down from the stool and began to eat. 'Did it have to be ramen?' People back in Konaha thought I loved ramen since I ate it all the time but that isn't true. I ate it all the time because it was cheap and I didn't have much money.
Once done we headed off in to the city streets. "You know I wish you could tell me what happened to you. It really pisses me off when people hurt animals for no reason."
I looked up at her as we walked. 'Animal lover.'
"Ah here we go." She said as she suddenly stopped.
Looking up I saw it was a weapons shop. 'Alright now this is my kind of place.' I thought and quickly followed her inside. She went towards the back of the store and I headed towards a large display of kunais. 'Man I can definitely use some new kunais.' To bad I was now a fox and had no way of getting them or using them. Sighing I went to see what Dakota was doing.
She was looking over a number of scrolls and it seemed like she was having a bit of trouble locating the kind she wanted.
A man came up and asked "Can I help you?"
She looked him over for a minute then said "I need some sealing scrolls but you don't seem to have any."
The man frowned and looked over the scrolls. "I may have some in the back. I'll be right back." He said then he walked away. Sighing Dakota wandered over to the display of kunai's I had been looking at earlier and looked them over. "Here you go." The man said appearing next to her. Dakota took the scroll he held out to her. "I'm sorry but we only have one. We'll be getting more in a week so you're welcome to come back then."
"I'm afraid I won't be here that long but this will do." She said then followed him up to the cash register.
Once out side Dakota scooped me up and placed me on her shoulder. This didn't bother me any more. I'd gotten used to it over the past few days. "This will help a lot." She said looking over the scroll. I was curious about what she would seal inside it. After this she went to a hotel and got a room. She laid on the bed and sighed. "Man...it's been way to long since I've slept on a bed..." She murmured sleepily.
I watched her from the floor next to the bed. She was asleep within minutes. 'Man what's with Dakota...she's kinda weird sometimes.' I thought as I shook my head. While she slept I explored the room. There wasn't much to it. Just the basics. A bed, bedside table, desk, small table set, and a bathroom. Bored I curled up on the bed next to Dakota and fell asleep. The sound of the shower woke me up a few hours latter. Opening my eyes I watched as Dakota came over to the bed.
"OK Skye time for us to get cleaned up." She said scooping me up.
'Wait...did she just say us?' I soon got my answer. She went in to the bathroom and shut the door. After sitting me down on the floor she began to undress. 'Oh shit!' I cried and it came out as a yip.
"Aw don't be a baby Skye." She said scooping me up once more. My entire body stiffened and my eyes widened. She wasn't wearing any clothes! Then she opened the sliding shower door and stepped inside shutting it behind her. The warm water hit me and she said "See Skye it's not so bad." She sat me down and proceeded to wash me thoroughly.
'Don't look...don't look...' I thought over and over again as I kept my eyes tightly closed. After she made sure I was completely clean and rinsed off she stood and washed herself. Cracking an eye open I felt like I was going to pass out. The quick glimpse I caught showed Dakota's body lathered with soap. I quickly turned my back to her. 'Lord I don't know if I can keep doing this!' If things like this kept happening I wasn't going to live much longer.
Hearing the water turn off I waited for Dakota to wrap herself in a towel before I turned around. I watched as she knelt down and proceeded to dry me off. Ten minutes latter we were both dry and she was finally dressed once more. After that she then proceeded to brush my fur out. At first I tried to get away but then...I dunno it just...felt really good! I laid on my side and my mind went blank. Then I was snapped out of it when I heard a strange sound. Blinking I laid there trying to figure out what it was...then it clicked. I was purring... 'Aw man..' I thought. I tried to get my self to stop but in the end just gave up. So I laid there enjoying the feeling of Dakota brushing me and stroking my fur.
