Dragonflies and Beetles
Chapter:1
Trembling Dragonflies
I'm new here and this is my first fic, so please don't be too harsh on me.
I had this idea a few days ago and had to write it. It takes place after the time skip.
>>Disclaimer: I do not own any of the Naruto characters.
Yet, Sabishii Ame is my creation. mwahahaha
It's been a long war against the Sound; the brutality spreading quick throughout the nations. A clan from the Grass village, swiftly, took up residence in Kanoha, proclaiming that they'd have nothing to do with the Sound. This clan happened to be a very reknown clan throughout the Grass nation: the Sabishii Clan. The Sabishii's were the bug users of the Grass. Much like the Aburame, except the Sabishii's bugs were like miniature dragonflies. The kakai dragonflies lived underneath the Sabishii's skin and fed on their chakra, in return, they did the Sabishii's battling, again, like the Aburame. These mini dragonflies could secrete a fluid from the tiny hairs on their six legs. This fluid could paralyze the human body quickly if applied to an open wound. Sabishii's rarely command their bugs to use this fluid because the only cure for the paralysis was the kakai dragonflies' blood, and the clan didn't want to kill their familiars.
The clan leader, Sabishii Naoaki, had a single daughter: Sabishii Ame. Ame was the heir to the Sabishii Clan and a lot was expected out of her. She was fourteen-years-old and already mastering some of the clan's most unique jutsu. She had long brown hair that ended just above her lower back. She posessed ice blue eyes and a somewhat small figure, standing only five feet and three inches. She had long legs and a rounded face with pale skin. She kept her small frame hidden behind a long purple coat, somewhat like Anko's, but with a slightly higher collar. Underneath her coat she wore a lime green T-shirt that was much too short for her, exposing her pale flesh from the bottom of her rib cage to the top of her pants. Her pants were long and dark blue with the usual ninja gear strapped to them. She wore the normal ninja shoes: navy blue sandals. On her forehead was her Grass Headband, in which she wore proudly.
Ame sighed to herself while sitting on a small hill on Kanohagakure's training grounds. She was watching the rest of the Genin teams train. The brunette was having a hard time adjusting to her new life style. Kanoha was much less strict then the Grass Village and her father advised her to lighten up on herself before she went mentally insane. Finding friends proved to be a problem as well, it seems that people find it gross when you tell them you have insects living under your skin. Even the guys seemed to find her disgusting And I thought boys were suppose to like bugs...she thought to herself feeling her insects buzz beneath her skin. They're agrravated, it seems that even they are having a hard time adjusting to the changes of weather. The air seemed drier in the Grass. The heir closed her eyes to calm them some, but it didn't seem to be working. Trying to convince the winged creatures to be still only seemed to upset them more.
Eventually, some of the small dragonflies crawled out from under her skin and onto her hand. She watched the bug stretch its four long veined wings. "Must get really cramped in there, eh little guy?" Ame said to the dragonfly.
She received a small flap of its wings as a respond before she felt more of them crawl out from her body and buzz away to explore their new surroundings. Ame watched them zoom around her, land on the new vegetation, and fly off farther down the training grounds. She didn't mind, as long as they came back before she decided to leave. She admired the small creatures, they seemed to come in all colors and every clan member always had a different color of the insect. Ame's were unusual because they were coal black when, normally, they came in some bright color or shade. To her, this was an advantage in battle. With as fast as they can fly, with some of their top speeds being over eighty-five miles per hour, their unique coloring only made them invisible to the naked eyes.
She laid back in the soft cool grass, feeling some of the green blades between her fingers and the small steps of her six legged friends crawling around on her face, the small claws on their feet tickling her flesh everytime they took a step. "You all do know that I really appriciate your company..." the brunette wispered to the small insects as she put her finger up to her cheek.
As soon as she felt all six feet secure on her fingertip she raised it to her eyes; she smiled warmly at the small bug. The dragonflies seemed to understand her feelings towards them and they all started beating their wings in rapid successions. The one on her finger flew around her face and landed on her headband. Ame smiled and rose up only to be sent back down to the ground at the sudden swarm of her dragonflies. It seems something had frightened them and all the insects that had left her to explore came back to her in one big cloud. They landed on her body and started to crawl around uneasily.
"Whats wrong?" Ame asked them as they buzzed around, raising thier small tails up in the air. She rose to her feet and looked out on the training grounds. She spotted a figure running up the hill at her on all fours.
"I'm telling you, Bug Freak, I saw a whole flock of them fly up this way!" the one on all fours said. He was clad in black ninja's clothes. He had canine like eyes and two large red streaks down his cheeks. His hair was short, black, and spiked, behind him trotted a rather large dog. The dog was white with brown ears.
The closer this person got, the louder her insects buzzed. He must have been the one who spooked my buddies! Ame thought to herself glaring down at the boy running up the hill. Following him were two more people, one male one female. The male had short black hair and he was clad in a white, hooded jacket over a black, high-collared, button shirt. Round, black glasses blocked his eyes from view. His hands were stuffed down into his coat pockets and, from what Ame could tell, he seemed very aggravated. The female had long indigo hair and large pale grey eyes, she was wearing a black and white jacket with fishnet under it. Her forehead protector was tied around her neck. She looked like she was blushing. The girl's large grey eyes told Ame that this girl was part of the Hyuuga clan. Almost everyone has heard of them.
Ame took one step backwards as the inu boy stood up in front of her looking down at her curiously. The insects raised thier tails high in the air, beated thier wings faster. "I'm afraid I will not be able to convince them to stop attacking you if you choose to come closer." Ame mumbled to this strange boy.
The dog,eventually getting to the top of the hill, started growling and it fuzzed up a bit. The insects responded to this by zipping off her body and swarming around her. "I'd advise you to shut your dog up before it angers them further." she continued.
The dog boy shushed his pet,"No Akamaru..." he said patting its head. Akamaru whimpered and stopped growling; the dragonflies stopped their swarming and attached themselves back to the brunettes body, still humming their anger. About this time, the other two reach the top of the hill.
Ok, the second chapter will be out shortly. And yes, I'm aware that my pen name is also the name of my character in this fic. You don't have to point that out to me. Her name would have been something else had I not been lazy. ;
