Proverbs 25: 16
If you find honey, eat just enough- too much of it, and you will vomit
Her mouth hung slightly open at his outburst
Hinata gulped slowly as she took in his disheveled state
It unsettled her that one of the most feared, ruthless
And up until a couple of months -a war criminal
Was currently in the middle of a ditch
With several scattered empty beer bottles at his feet
She had counted 5 so far
The hem of his dark cloak was drenched in dirt
She was close enough to notice the beads of sweat that made his overgrown hair stick to his forehead
That was nothing compared to his blown-out pupils that could barely focus on her
He emitted crazed desperation that somehow felt familiar to her
She shifted uncomfortably from one foot to the other ...
As she watched his dark eyes glow red
Even in his incapacitated state, she was sure he was strong enough to wring her neck
However, she was a shinobi ...if she noticed something amiss
It was her duty to engage or notify someone
But Who?... Naruto or Sakura
From the little she knew about him, he was walking on thin ice
Wasn't there supposed to be ANBU's watching his every move?
Getting someone involved meant she would have to explain why she was here in the first place
Thus, she settled for
"ano...do you have your brother's uhh... b-body "pointing to the ditch ... cursing herself because that was a dumb question. of course, he didn't have his brother's body
His face remained impassive
"well it's okay if don't...y-you could always put something that reminds you of him... a picture or..." she found herself rambling nervously
Without breaking eye contact, He climbed out of his man-made ditch
And sauntered over to her
Her heart thrashed wildly with each of his labored steps
"uhh...um well I oversaw my cousin's funeral "why couldn't she stop talking "I-I know where you can get you a tombstone"
He stopped at that and cocked his head slightly -almost zombie-like
He is close enough to practically feel his breath on her
Close enough that she activates her byakugan
His raises his hands slowly and it grazes her face
His eyes widened slightly- when he realized that his hand doesn't go through her
And before she takes a step back
His face is contorted into a mixture of pain and confusion
His body hunched over
a growl escapes his lips
And without warning, the entire contents of his guts slid its way down her pants
: YIKESSSSSS
