1.
Sakura squinted at the cramped text, grimacing at the amount of reading she had left to do before tomorrow.

A large tap made her look up and see a large white owl outside.

She hastened to open the window.

The owl swooped in, dropped a freshly cut snake head onto the boring text that Sakura had been working on and left with a soft hoot.

Glad to have an excuse not to read the boring text, Sakura grabbed her med kit and moved tot he snake head with anticipation.

“Okay, just one more time,” Sakura assured the girl. “Are you ready?”

The girl shook her head, looking terrified.

“Then we'll wait for a minute.” Sakura moved towards the room's small window. “Would you like me to open the window so we can get some fresh air in here?” Seeing the girl nod, Sakura opened the window, glad that the fragrant scent of flowers came inside.

Without warning, a large white owl swooped inside with a startled hoot.

Sakura caught the owl as gently as she could, just before it could slam into one of the monitors.

“Cool!” the small girl said with wide eyes, looking between Sakura and the owl, the fear from before nowhere in sight.

Sakura smiled.

“And then I...” Sakura paused mid-conversation and looked up at a loud screech. She smiled and held out her hand.

The snow white owl dropped a glittering snake head into Sakura's gloved hands and landed on her shoulder with a gentle movement.

“A ruby spitter!” Sakura turned the snake head over, opening it's mouth to examine the venom sacks. “This is your best catch yet!”

The owl on her shoulder preened with pride.

Sakura pulled out a sturdy container that she had started carrying in her pouch for exactly this situation and placed the snake head inside.

“Made a new friend?” Ino asked curiously, having been silent until then.

Sakura blinked and looked at the owl on her shoulder.

The owl stared back.

Sakura grinned. “Yes, she's the most useful friend I've made in my entire life.”

“Hey!” Ino huffed even though she smiled.
