Shino
"They're my friends Kiba!" The purple cloud of insects surges towards him, "And so are you!" They strike Akamaru and Kiba, my best friend. "Kiba!" Kurenai-sensei calls as he hits the wall of the Chuunin Exam Stadium, our special training place. I can feel her red eyes piercing through my back. She was wrong about Kiba being the strongest… I, Shino Aburame, am the strongest. Kiba limply struggles to his feet and Akamaru copies. "Come on Akamaru… lets get him!" He signals Fang over Fang jutsu. I prepare a paralyzing Insect Tornado as Kiba and Akamaru speed towards me. "Not quick enough…" The insects suck him up. "Release!" Kurenai-sensei yells before the tornado takes what life Kiba has left. His limp body falls to the ground, covered from head to toe in bruises and scratches. "You have grown strong Shino," He struggles for breath, "Very strong."
Hinata
Kiba is right, Shino has grown strong. He appears next to me, "Hinata," He glares at me with his gleaming purple eyes. Purple? "Your next." His calm yet fierce remark sending shivers up my spine. "B…b…but Shino"
"No buts about it Hinata." His calm nature nowhere to be found in his words. "No Shino, that's enough for today." Kurenai-sensei growls as she carries Kiba and Akamaru up the stairs. "Hinata, take Akamaru to Tsume and tell her Kiba will spend the night in the hospital. Shino, go home." He places his sunglasses where they should be and disappears in a cloud of insects… a purple cloud. Kurenai-sensei gently places Akamaru in my arms and continues on up the stairs. Purple?
Shino
Insects whiz past as my footsteps silently lay a new path through the forest. Weak, that's what he is, weak. "Shino!" The deep voice of my father calls. I freeze, here it comes, I wonder how loud it'll be this time. "Kurenai told me what happened. You could have killed him," His hand rests on my shoulder, "Well done son. You're getting stronger by the day." He's proud of me? "Father…"
"I'm proud of you Shino and so are they…" He trails off pointing at the swarm of insects in front of us. "You are a great ninja."
Tsume
"Who did this Hinata?" Akamaru's body glows as the healing pills take effect. "Sh… sh…" Typical. Now I see why Kiba calls her the nervous ninja.
"Aburame Shino did this."
"Kurenai-sensei…" Now she talks! "H… how is Kiba doing?"
"He is well. Just in need of some rest right now. Akamaru?" She stares me down.
"He also is well," I avert my eyes down to him, "He needs some rest, though I think he misses Kiba too much to do that right now."
"I shall take him to the hospital to rest with Kiba if that's ok?"
"Just be careful with him." Shino Aburame huh? Aburame…Aburame… Shibi!
Shino
"Eat up son; you need to replace what you lost." The steam coming off the ramen fogs up my glasses. As I pull them off my mind wanders back to what happened earlier. Hinata saw my eyes… no-one has seen them. If she saw them then Kiba and Kurenai-sensei probably saw them too. "Son? Something wrong?"
"Why do we hide our eyes father?" He lets out a deep breath. "Eat your ramen before it gets cold Shino." I do as I'm told. I wonder why…
Hinata
Neji, his father and my father train as I bring them tea. Why is it my job? Why can't I train too? "Just what we need, a nice steaming cup of tea." My uncle takes a sip of his tea. "Hinata!" That voice is not Hyugan. "Ahh Tsume, you wish to speak with my daughter?" Father abruptly grabs me by the shoulder. "Where might I find the Aburame residence?"
Aburame. Shino. Insects. Purple.
Purple…
I hope you liked it! Will update when the next chapter is done which shouldn't be too long! Review please!
Note I am not sure that Shino's eyes are actually purple but they are now.
