I know Shino's soft spot is considered bugs, but I don't consider it that at all, but I did make up this soft spot! I just don't think his soft spot is bugs at all, he might protect them but that isn't considered a soft spot. Anyway, it's a totally made up weakness on my part, but I hope you enjoy it!

Chapter 9 – Shino's Soft Spot

--

She kept attacking, but Shino dodged every time, not being able to fight back; because he had a soft spot for blind people.

--

(Flashback:)

"What is your soft spot?" Kiba asked Hinata as they sat together one evening.

"I-I don't know…" she replied as she thought of Naruto, her cheeks began to turn soft pink.

"A crush," he replied, "doesn't really count as a soft spot. I mean a soft spot for cats or something."

"I don't have one." She answered after a moment. "Do you?"

"Yeah!" he replied with a smile. "I would never be able to attack old people, because they can't defend themselves, plus old people are usually nice." He looked over to Shino, the loner of the group. "What about you, Shino?"

"…" after a moment he replied. "Blind people."

"Heh, he actually said," Kiba thought, "he's so confined I'm surprised he answered."

"Blind people can't see, that is a beautiful gift," he replied, "some insects cant see, but all of that particular kind are born that way. Humans, however, are not. So blind people are always looked down upon because they can't see, like everyone else, and people make insults about them in front of their eyes knowing they can't see the insult. It really isn't fair."

(End Flashback:)

"…"

"What's wrong?" Rikku asked, "can't fight back?"

"It's not that." He replied but didn't continue. She just kept using taijutsu, no ninjutsu or genjutsu at all, almost as if she hadn't been taught any.

"These matches are useless," commented Naruto after a while of the same strike, dodge thing Shino and Rikku were doing, "I mean, if they aren't a fast match, someone yaps the whole thing and then gives up."

"You mean like your match?" Sakura teased.

"Heh!" he replied, "at least I didn't lose 'cause I didn't get enough rest!"

"Take that back!" she yelled at him. "I lost 'cause Lee is better than me!"

"Then why did you just collapse?" he smiled evilly at her.

"Shut up, Naruto!!" she yelled. "I might not have lost if you don't snore! Then I could have gotten some rest when we were in the forest!"

"Ooh sorry!" he replied with a grin. "But I don't snore, and you just admitted you lost because you were tired, you should have said something."

"Not like it would have mattered!"

"Shut up, you two." Sasuke said after he took as much as he could.

--

"This isn't good at all," thought Kiba as he watched his teammate, "Shino has a huge soft spot for blind people, he might not be able to fight back…"

--

"I can't fight you!" said Shino finally.

"You afraid?" she asked. He caught her arm and threw he to the ground.

"No, I'm not afraid," he replied, "I don't like fighting blind people."

"And I hate people like you!" he jerked back. "You people always take us blind people lightly, just because we can't see! Well I don't give a shit if you don't like fighting people like me, I'll win for sure!"

"You people think," she continued, "that we hate it how people make fun of us, well we don't care! They have no lives and are just wasting their time if they think that they are hurting our feelings, but no! We blind people don't care, we care about the people who take pity on us!"

She stood up, "Ok fine! When I say 'we blind people' that's not true. Most like the pity and they like it how people care about them, and they cry when someone makes a blind joke. Most blind people don't go to school and know how to read and write anyway, with braille and special teachers and pens and such. But most blind people have parents!"

"She's an orphan, too?" Shino thought.

"He let his guard down…" she smacked him one in the nose and he went flying backwards.

"How did she know where I was?" he thought, "Come to think about it, how did she keep following me around the arena if she's blind?"

He fell to the ground and she jumped up above him and elbowed him in the stomach.

"So," she said, "you are weak, too."

"I'm not weak," he replied, "I just don't like fighting blind people."

"I told you I hate you people who pity us!" she snapped.

"I don't care." He replied. "I feel sorry for blind people and your opinion won't change it."

"…"

"And that is why," he stood up as he brushed off his thick coat, "I will show you that I also be ruthless, by defeating you."

"Just try!" she replied.

"I don't know how she can see me, but I believe it is some sort of chakra sensing jutsu or something like it. So, if she can see my chakra…" many small bugs started to crawl out from under his coat that came from inside him, all of them containing small amounts of chakra inside them.

"What's this?" she thought, "I'm starting to see much more chakra around him, and it's growing…"

Soon the bugs were all around her.

"That's it!" she yelled. "Water Style! Crushing Flood Jutsu!" she made some hand signs and then the place started to begin to flood again.

"What?" he thought, "Is she trying to drown my bugs? That might actually work…"


"Water Style! Water Dragon Jutsu!"
she started many hand signs.

"No you don't!" Shino thought as he started to make his way as fast as he could towards her.

"I won't let you win!"
