Bark or Bite
Kiba and Akamaru had been sent out to patrol the forest outside of what was left of the wall that had been around the village, which had started the slow process of being rebuilt after being destroyed by the six paths of Pein. “ Looks clear doesn’t it Akamaru.” he said, getting a soft bark from his Ninja hound before he caught a glimpse of white hair through the underbrush. “Kakashi Sensei?” he muttered, before sniffing the air as he leaped off Akamaru’s back, trying to carefully close the gap between him and the person that was standing there. It’s not Kakashi’s scent, but it smells oddly similar. he thought, giving Akamaru a sign to hide just in case this person wasn’t friendly. “ Whose there?” he said, as his feet touched the ground and a confused and concerned expression washed over his face.

Sakumo had been trying to pick up a familiar scent, even one would do, to tell him that this was real. The Hokage monument told him that one of his good friends, Tsunade, was Hokage currently... but without a scent or something to go off of, could he trust this? Was this a dream...? The scent of a man and his dog jarred him from his thoughts and he silenced the distressed growl that threatened to bubble out of him, he wasn't angry and didn't want to come across as such. "I am Sakumo Hatake... " he murmured before turning to take a look at the boy, relieved to see the Leaf insignia on his forehead protector. "Who are you...?" he glanced at the dog and smiled.
