A/N: No one reviewed my revised Shino's Club Part 2 chapter! Oh, sorrow! But then again, reading about Shino, like, TWICE is really kinda annoying. So here are some presents! This chapter is so NOT about Shino! Instead, it's about our dear little friend Hinata. Of course, the next chapter is also about Hinata, maybe. Or Kiba, perhaps. Or heck, even Neji or Hanabi! Anyway, HAPPY NEW YEAR! IT'S NOW THE DOG YEAR! OMFG!
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. Duh.
Hinata: Pen Pal
I bet you all never knew this, but Hinata has a pen pal! Since she isn't really much of a ninja and her father constantly trains her younger sister instead of her, she can't spend her free time JUST stalking Naruto and enjoying the fine day with Kiba and Shino. Of course. So she has a pen pal! Not just ANY pen pal though. A pen pal from the DOG COUNTRY! 'If there's a BIRD country, why can't there be a DOG country?' was most likely the thought process of the founder at the time. Of course. Haw haw.
No one in their right mind would name their country the DOG country but I suppose the founder must've been very giddy at the time and decided not to dwell in his right mind. Anyway, I bet you guys all never knew this either, but KIDOUMARU from the Sound Five ALSO came from the Dog Country. After all, such an odd-looking guy could never come from a NORMAL country, right?
So Hinata's pen pal was one of those little odd-balls. Of course, it wasn't KIDOUMARU, since Neji had effectively and efficiently pummelled Kidoumaru by now and Kidoumaru was just some sort of name to scare little kids to sleep. It didn't work as well as the name 'ITACHI' or 'OROCHIMARU' but it worked well enough.
Hinata was just sitting about one day, when she remembered that she didn't write a letter to her pen pal for like, TEN MILLION YEARS! Of course, ten million years was merely an exaggeration to show you the ungodly amount of time in which Hinata ignored her pen pal. So, taking a piece of parchment, she got up from her chair and walked all the way to her Writing Desk that Hiashi had built for her and she dipped her pen into her inkpot. She paused.
How should she write this? Hinata began to panic slightly. It's not as if she really knew if her pen pal was a man or a woman. Heck, she didn't even really know his NAME! All she knew is that it started with a B. Barry? Barly? Benna? TOO MANY CHOICES! So she just wrote, "Mr. B."
But what if her pen pal was a woman? That would be embarassing! So she scratched out the 'Mr.' and paused. Finally she just put in 'Friend'. Hinata paused again. It sounded weird to refer to her pen pal as 'Friend B.' Maybe she should show him she had a sense of humor by calling her pen pal 'B-B gun'. But that would be mean to make fun of someone's name like that.
SO MUCH CHOICES!
Suddenly there was a knock at the door. "Who is it?" Hinata asked
"It's me." Her lil sister, Hanabi, came in with a little envelope in her hand. "It's from this person from the Dog Country." Hanabi informed Hinata. Hinata took the letter away from her lil sister and Hanabi sort of left the room. She needed to train with Hiashi.
Hinata opened the envelope and read,
Dear Hinata,
Hi, it's me, Bakamaru, your pen pal from the Dog Country. Well, I was thinking about us being pen pals and all and I was seriously beginning to doubt whether or not I was in my sane mind when I signed up for that 'Friends over Seas' campaign because I honestly don't want a pen pal. At all. No offence or anything. Actually, yeah, offence. Anyway, I just wanted to say that YOU SUCK, LOSER, and I don't want to be your pen pal anymore.
Yours sincerely, Bakamaru
Hinata kind of crunched up the letter and put it in her garbage can. Taking her piece of parchment she crunched THAT up too and sort of tossed it away. Lying down on her bed, she happened to catch a glimpse of the calender on her bedside counter. Oh no! She had asked Ino and Sakura to go shopping with her that very afternoon! Hurriedly putting on a brand new hoodie and her shoes, she charged out of the house, putting Bakamaru completly out of her head.
