Xero had always been fond of dogs, however the Hokage's was like none he ever had to deal with. As soon as the dog reached the outside air, it took off running as fast as it could leaving Xero behind without having time to put on the leash. "Why must these things happen to me," Xero thought as he started running through the streets to find the lost dog. While searching, he overheard a bunch of screaming kids and went to check it out. The dog was there barking at a tree which one of the kids had climbed to get away from the beast. Using one of his accupuncture needles, coated in a potent tranquilizer that would calm the beast. Xero silently crept up and stuck the dog behind the ear, causing it to pass out almost immediately. After waiting a few hours for the dog to come to, Xero lead the now calm beast back to the great hall to collect his reward.
