Third Person’s POV
Ashley stands with her back against a wall of the Hokage’s Tower, her arms crossed and one knee bent, her foot also against the wall. She boredly blows her long fringe from her eyes, before a yellow Butterfly zooms past, causing a bemused grin to cross the blonde’s face.
Ashley turns her head slightly, watching Keiji as he suddenly rockets up into the air, spinning around in speedy circles. He quickly changes direction, slowing down and flitting over to Ashley, now flying upside down for some reason.
“You’re seriously insane” Ashley states dryly, though she finds the insect’s antics rather amusing. “Andyou’re a show off too.”
Keiji flips around at this, seeming to stare at Ashley for a few moments, before he resumes his air acrobatics, apparently enjoying himself. Ashley merely chuckles to herself and shakes her head, before leaning it back against the wall and looking up at the bright blue sky, a few white clouds floating past every now and then.
Keiji had been happy to see Ashley again, that had been certain. She’d been passing the Yamanaka’s Flower Shop earlier, when he’d come barrelling out of the door, flapping his little wings like crazy and aiming for Ashley’s face. Luckily she’d seen him in enough time to duck and avoid having the strange creature collide with her. He’d already made her quite dizzy due to the amount of times he’d flown around her head with excitement.
‘I hope Kakashi Sensei was right about Captain Yamato being here’ Ashley thinks wryly, momentarily closing her eyes. ‘Otherwise I’ve just wasted twenty minutes by standing around here….’
“Hey Keiji” Ashley suddenly calls, catching the Butterfly’s attention. “Can you do me a favour?”
Keiji bobs up and down in the air, as if to say yes, before merrily flitting over to Ashley and coming to rest on her outstretched hand.
“You see that window all the way up there?” Ashley asks, using her free hand to point up at the highest window of the Tower. “Can you please fly up there and see if Lady Tsunade is talking to a tall guy with brown hair?”
Flapping his orange tipped wings a few times, Keiji jumps up into the air and zooms up towards the window. Clearly using his chakra to speed him up, Keiji’s wing beats blow up a small cloud of dust, causing Ashley to cough and wave her hands. She sweat drops as the dust slowly disperses, while Keiji flits around the window Ashley had pointed out to him, trying to get a good look at the people inside the room.
Keiji soon floats back down to his Kunoichi friend, looking more like a falling Autumn leaf than a Butterfly, and comes to a rest on her forehead.
‘I saw a man leaving the room’ Ashley hears a deep voice say in her head. ‘He was tall and looked like he had brown hair. He also had a silver headdress thing on.’
“That’s Captain Yamato” Ashley chuckles, opening her eyes as Keiji jumps away from her, wings beating gently. “And it’s not a headdress. It’s some sort of variation of a headband, like the one around my neck.”
Keiji sweat drops at this, not really seeing the difference. To him, it looked like a headdress.
“Thanks for the help too” Ashley remembers to add, briefly wondering how crazy she would look to any passersby. Here she was, chatting with a very normal looking Butterfly, as if he were a human being. Even if she explained that Keiji was a Ninja Butterfly, she didn’t think too many people would really believe her.
