Never Again.

Zaku stood there staring down at his useless arms, Shino stood behind him and said "earlier when I was distracting you with my helpful advice? I also sent a few of my little friends to plug up those bothersome wind holes, both hands just to be sure, you see well an ace in the hole is good two aces are better."

Zaku felt a small amount of movement in his left arm and with great deal of effort, and pain, he tried to swing at Shino with his right arm, but Shino hit him hard in the face with a back handed fist. Zaku landed on the ground some feet away from Shino.

Shino thought he had won but then he looked down to see a kunai buried in his stomach. "Ahhh." Zaku cried softly as he forced himself back to his feet.

Shino then smiled "you're a stubborn one but you didn't even hit a vital area. You see the liver has a way of working even with a hole in it and my bugs control the flow of pain to my brain so I almost didn't even notice you hit me."

Shino starts to walk towards Zaku, but then he stagers and falls to his knees. "what the?" Shino asks. "Ahhh," Shino grabs his stomach as his bug crawl out of his body and away from him. "What did you do to me?"

"Hehe" Zaku laughs smugly, "it seems we both had two aces the only deferens is I had a the second one up my sleeve, literally that kunai is the one I keep up my left sleeve and while we were out in the forest I took the liberty of coating it with the venom of every poisons creator we came across, than I put it into your liver because before blood goes to any part of the body it passes through the liver.

"but why does it hurt so much…" Shino thought to himself "and why are my bug running away?...No…." "You" Shino said out loud "you use scorpion venom didn't you?"

"scorpion, spider, snake like I said pretty much every venoms creator I found." Zaku answered Shino's question with a smirk on his face. "Why, do your bugs not like scorpions?".

"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"Shino yelled as he clench his stomach.

"Oh by the way" Zaku spoke up "Full house aces over kings." Shino collapsed on the floor and just laid there.

Hayate Gekko walked up and said "well this one looks like" cough cough "he's had enough" Cough match Zaku .

"Fool" Zaku thought to himself "as if I'd let myself lose ever again."
