Silence
The sun was beating down on Konoha, but in these alleys, the shadows were free to dance and play as they wished. It was noon. The sun was high and tears sparkled like crystals.
Sniff
It was just laying there. She kneeled beside it, waiting for it to stop holding its breath. It was going to run out of air soon. She shook it; the dog's bony frame rocked back and forth. Its body was stiff. She stood , looking down at the animal though thick black lashes. Her eyebrow twitched slightly in annoyance, she was tiring of this game. She wiped her eyes and her cheeks. Her sad pout transformed into a thin lipped expression.
"Tch."
A snarl wrenched her face into a terrifying sight. She pulled back her leg and kicked hard. The dog flipped over.
"You are awake," Her face softened a bit, then twisted back into a fierce scowl. "You had me worried! Why would you do that? Friends don't do that! We're supposed to be friends!"
She continued to kick the deceased dog, its body flopping all the way to the shadowed wall of the alley. She smirked, her friend would pay for being so mean to her. She picked up something hard and solid. It was delightfully heavy in her hand.
The first strike only took of some fur.
The second strike crushed an eye, the goo oozing out like tears onto the dogs fur.
She apologized quietly.
The sixth crushed its skull. The sound of bone crunching under flesh-the sound was enchanting. She dug the object into the dogs head, reveling in the unique sensation.
"Kagome." A cold voice called to her from the mouth of the alley way, the threshold she was not allowed to pass.
"Nii-san." She greeted, a small smile on her lips.
"What did you do?" Her brother walked closer and inspected their pet.
" Inu-chan was being mean. I had to punish her." Her brother cursed low under his breath and kicked the mangled creature behind some garbage cans.
"Let's go." He gritted out. The small girl rose to her feet and wiped her red hands on her worse-for-wear brown dress. Her bare, dirty feet left small red prints in her wake.
"Hai, Lee-kun!" She chirped, wrapping herself around his arm. She looked up into the wide eyes of her brother. His eyes filled to the brim with what others called determination. She knew it as anger.
