The Hated Prodigy
BlackDragonShinigami: Poor Jiraiya and yay Katsumi on being the first one to get eaten out off.
Ryuujin96: yes he will learn to say more appropriate things to women or might do it on purpose, because he can easily be influenced by jiraiya. I won't really make Naruto the victim that often, so don't worry.
This is a filler chapter really, all about Tora being the only cat in a dog based clan and will be completely in Tora's POV, so enjoy (I have never done a first person, so give me a little slack and I will probably never do a first person POV again). Next chapter: Wave
animal talking: I'm talking
animal thinking: 'stay out of my head'
I sighed as I wondered around the clan compound after Amaya had 'dropped' me off when she tried to go in the bath. 'Like hell am I getting my fur wet in that bath, I can clean myself' I huffed looking for a nice place to relax in the sun. "Hey you two" I asked noticing two dogs resting in the sun, one old enough to be a while past it's prime, the other a small white puppy with black ears. The older one opened one eye but the puppy jumped up on all fours "can I sit there beside you?" I asked, the older one nodded slightly not caring and never had enough energy anymore to make a fuss about it.
The puppy just growled "what is a cat doing here? This is my area".
I rolled my eyes 'I guess I really don't spend too much time walking around the clan, I usually just stay in Amaya's top since it is so comfy and warm in there'. "I have been here for quite a while, we probably just never met each other" I explained but the puppy did not look convinced.
"If you brats are going to argue, do it somewhere else" the older dog grunted rolling over "I need my sleep".
The puppy jumped towards me landing one meter away "I'm Akamaru, the alpha around here what's yours little kitten". Akamaru held his head up high to try and make himself look threatening but it didn't work considering he was shorter than me.
"I'm Tora, the demon cat from hell" I showed Akamaru my fangs and took a step forward, my claws cracking the ground showing I wasn't frightened by a little confrontation. I smirked as I saw Akamaru shaking slightly "what's wrong, are you scared of this little kitten"
"L-Like I would be scared of you" Akamaru quickly composed himself "everyone knows dogs are stronger than cats".
"Yet we are faster and can cut you up" I shouted
"I said to get away you little brats, don't think I won't come out of retirement" barked out the older dog, making Akamaru run off with me following him.
5 minutes later, I was still chasing Akamaru, not sure why I was still chasing him but it was funny watching him run away from me, considering he was very slow and was panting already. Eventually the white puppy collapsed in exhaustion while I just slowed down to a walking pace. "Hey look guys it's the strongest dog here, how pathetic running away from a cat" a cream coloured puppy laughed with a group of puppies the same colour. "I feel really sorry for the rest of us with an embarrassment like you apart of us".
"You know running away from cats does not make you pathetic" I spoke getting a mocking snicker and open laughing by some "I think he did the smart thing running away, unlike you who belittles cats with your arrogance and stays here"
"Are you serious? Cats are below dogs, that's why you all run away in fear". The puppy bragged trying to look threatening with his height and fangs, he did better than Akamaru since he was a larger dog but I gave no fucks. "So do as you were meant to and run away" he leaped forward with a bark gaining the attention of clan members.
I smirked as I lifted my front legs to spin on my back legs to avoid the lunge then moved on to my front legs, using my momentum and chakra in my legs, kicked the puppy in the side, knocking him over. "All bark and no bite as always".
"Moraba" they shouted as who I thought were his siblings "you demon, how could you do that to a dog?".
"Simple" I chuckled darkly "I'm a good cat" I finished in a cheery voice. "Don't look down on cats again, you got that?" I made sure all of them nodded "if you got that spread it around, any dog that fights me will be dealt with in the same way as this one, now... run". I gave a satisfied look as they all started running, I turned around to be a bit freaked out by Akamaru who was close to me, his eyes sparkling with admiration.
"Wow your so strong" I stepped back as Akamaru kept inching closer "can you teach me"
"No dog can learn my fighting skills, the way dog's bodies are, they are simply not flexible enough" I stated as Akamaru looked a little disappointment but continued.
"Then can I at least be your underling boss, you are the alpha ma... female around here" Akamaru nearly was begging.
I hummed in thought "nah too much effort, having to show you are the strongest to everyone, I would rather just laze around or do something more productive".
"I guess cats and dogs, are really different in that part" Akamaru wondered.
I shook my head "that is wrong, some cats would crave that attention, I simply do not, you are stereotyping just like the other dogs".
"Hey Akamaru" a young boy wearing a grey hoodie and black pants strolled out looking annoyed "my sister asked to give you a bath".
"Who's that?" I asked
"Kiba, I'm his owner and he is my pet" Akamaru waved his paw dismissively
"Ah I see" I smirked "have fun in your bath".
"I also got told to wash you too kitty" Kiba muttered something about annoying sisters as the words went through my head.
"Never" I shouted dramatically jumping and scratching Kiba it the face then kicked him to bounce off of him. "You will never catch me alive" I sprinted away, leaving the annoyed boy to be pissed, especially when Akamaru did exactly the same following my example.
Kiba gritted his teeth as he chased after us both for a good ten minutes, only catching Akamaru who was still tired. "Fine just clean yourself, you stupid cat" he yelled in frustration leaving the me alone.
"I asked Hana to wash Tora and she asked her little brother to do it for her and he gives up so easily" Amaya cracked her knuckles as her hair is to the side dripping wet. "Useless guys are such a pain and need to be taught how to be useful" she leaped forward her hands like claws. All that was heard throughout the compound for the next 5 minutes, was Kiba screaming as he was assaulted and beaten on the floor, the usual method in the Inuzuka clan to show dominance. Although it was a strange way, it showed affection, most of the time and who was top dog or cat.
Somewhere over in the hot springs, Jiraiya looked up to the sky hearing the scream. "Hold on whoever you are, be strong and never get hugged by some creep in the hot springs" he cried as Gai pulled him in for another youthful hug, it was even worse as they were both wrinkled from being in the hot springs too long.
Amaya crossed her arms as she stood over a beaten up Kiba before looking in my direction "Hey Tora, I told you before, it's time for your bath". I shook my head difiantly making Amaya sigh "you can come into the bath with me if you want".
I gave an intense eye to eye stare which lasted for a minute. "Ok" I jumped on her chest as she wrapped her arms around me to make sure I wouldn't fall.
"Let's go and get you all cleaned up" Amaya walked away with a face of relief leaving a crying Kiba for the cruelty he just experienced.
