Breaking Point
Title: Breaking Point
Type: Drabble
Fandom: Naruto
Theme: 073. Retaliate [Word count: 196]
Character(s): OC: Sarutobi Mei; brief mentions of Namikaze Minato, Uzumaki Kushina, OC: Shirou
Pairing(s): Implied Shirou/Mei
Warning(s): Creative license of events and making use of unknown information in the Naruto timeline; OCs to fill in the gap that is Tenten's history.
Disclaimer: I own nothing but these words.
Note: Short drabble meant to be part of a series started when my internet was out. Ironic, huh~? ;D Theme borrowed from
ficlets100.
Dedicated to: ...Mei. Don't mess with her weapons. 8|
And as the metallic snap of the metal rang throughout the clearing, something inside of her broke as well. It was like a streak of red had flashed across her field of vision, bringing forth a more primal side of Mei that she -- or anyone for that matter -- did not know existed. Where there had been a level of patience and plotting in her demeanor before, there only remained a cold and deadly intent for revenge. And that, perhaps, was one of the most frightening things a person could come up against.
Anyone who knew or understood Mei on any level, any who were familiar with the kunoichi's affinity to weaponry, knew that there was little else that she held more sacred. That alone would have been enough to render a want for retribution for her broken tools. However, these particular set of twin hooked swords had been a gift from Shirou, carefully crafted specifically for her to use and care for. To have them broken right in front of her eyes...
Yes. Mei was out for blood. And there would be little Minato or Kushina could do to stop her from getting it.
