A single drop

Father daughter training

I was walking around the base preparing to go out and train soon. I was planning on asking dad to help me. I walked into a suspiciously dark hallway. Something felt off. I looked around me only to pull out one of my katana's and held it to someone's throat.

My eye only narrowed seeing Tobi. he held his hands up in surrender. I sheathed my katana. He giggled and walked up in front of me. I looked around me hoping to find anyone around but there was no one which made me feel uneasy.

Suddenly the atmosphere changed drastically. I went to grab my katana again but I froze when Tobi came right in front of my face. I looked at him as my whole body tensed. I felt my throat beginning to tighten. Nyuko hissed protectively and bore his fangs.

"is something wrong. Yoshi?" Tobi asked in a strangely deep voice.

I took a deep breath. Okay, Yoshi, stay calm. he wants you to be scared. I stood tall and looked straight at him. I would not be intimidated. A low chuckle was heard.

"nothing is wrong with me. However, I must say you demeanour sure has changed." I said.

He was about to say something but Deidra's voice cut through the heavy air like steel. he was Calling Tobi obviously mad. Tobi went back to his childlike self and ran up to Dedira. they soon left but not before I sent Tobi a Suspicious look. The moment he was gone, my legs went weak and I leaned against a wall.

"what was that." I mumbled.

"Are you alright Yoshi?" Nyuko asked.

"yea, I'll be fine." I said with a sigh.

"something isn't right with him."

"I know."

I stood up and tied my hair up in a ponytail before walking out to the living area and I threw a kunai at dad. He caught it and looked at me. I smiled and he stood up walking towards me.

"You said you would train with me when I got back." I said.

He smiled his toothy grin before dragging me out of the base to an open area. I quickly jumped backwards avoiding Samehada. My dad was a lot more brutal when it came to fighting me, on the other hand, I was different. I didn't pick up my dad's fighting style.

He brought Samehada down on me again, however, I stepped on Samehada and flipped over dad pulling out both my katanas. Dad managed to step forward enough for me to get a few strands of his hair and a small cut on his cheek.

He touched his cheek and smirked. I took this distraction and went to strike, however, Samehada moved in front of my attack protecting dad. A slight look of shock came over his face before he laughed gently.

"you sure have improved since we last fought. I guess you're training with Kakuzu has paid off." He said.

I lept forward holding one blade to sads neck and the other to his stomach. His smiled only grew.

"aren't you the one who said never let my guard down, father." I said with a smile.

I jumped back preparing to fight again. He began to form hand signs and my eyes widened. I quickly did a few hand signs and jumped away leaving a water clone where I was. It was caught in the water prison jutsu. I let out a sigh. My clone soon melted into water.

"substation hey?" He said turning to look at me.

"don't you think that's going a bit too far dad?" I asked.

"You don't like it when I hold back just because you're my daughter." He said with a laugh.

"well if we're not holding back." I said with a smirk.

Nyuko hissed in delight and slither into the grass. Dad's eyes wandered to Nyuko and I jumped forward above dad and slashed both my katana's at him. Samehada blocked me and I pushed off him doing a black flip and landing on the ground.

I quickly raised one of my katanas in fr0ont of me blocking dad's attack. I pushed against him and went to strike at him with my other katana. He jumped away and did a few hand signs. I jumped to the side and avoided the water that came out of his mouth.

I quickly moved my katana to my side again blocking my dad's attack. However, in the position I was in I couldn't muster all my strength and I usually struggled against my dad's strength meaning I could barely hold him back and I could do it for long.

One hand was on the ground and I clenched it. Nyuko wrapped around dad's leg and I threw dirt in his eyes giving me the chance to more. yes, that was a cheap shot but can you blame me. Nyuko again hid in the grass. He couldn't grow as quickly as he normally did because he had to use nature chakra and Samehada would sense that if he did it too quickly but he was almost done meaning I could do my plan soon.

Dad soon recovered and looked at me. I smiled and stood up. Dad walked towards me and I continued to smile. I stood in a fighting stance. Dad went running at me, however, Nyuko finally went to his full size and wrapped around dad. I ran forward kicking dads wrist and forcing him to let go of Samehada. I held my katana to his throat and smiled.

"you're dead. this is why you should fight me without holding back dad." I said.

"so you noticed. but I can't fight you to my full strength you are my daughter after all." He said.

I rolled my eyes. Nyuko let dad go and dad walked up to me patting my head.

"you sure have grown up. I'm glad I was there to save you that day." He said.

I smiled and hugged him.

"thank you, dad. I love you." I mumbled into his chest.

he returned the hugged and we both went back to fighting each other for the rest of the day and I ended up laying on the ground exhausted.
