A bird flew low over the massive bamboo grove, searching for its mid-day meal. Suddenly, its eye caught sight of a large, green worm wiggling helplessly in the open. Without a second thought, the bird swooped down and grasped the worm in its beak. The worm stopped moving and spikes rose slowly from the fallen leaves around the bird. About a foot and a half away from the spikes were a pair of yellow eyes in the leaves, one on white skin and the other on black. The green "worm" began to pull down into the spikes and the bird was pulled down trying to get away with it.
"Let go of my tongue you little b*****d!" a voice said from beneath the bird. Just as it tried to spread its wings and fly away, the spikes closed and the eyes rose from the leaves on the ground. The spikes were the fangs of a venus flytrap, and this flytrap was imbedded in the chest of the man who's eyes were watching the bird. The man picked a couple of feathers off the flytrap's fangs and examined them.
"Kusagakure Blue-tailed Finch" he said nochalantly. "Not what I was expecting for lunch, but at least it's something." When he spoke, only the left, white half of his face moved. The black side on his right didn't even have the other half of his mouth! But that didn't stop it from talking. "I told you to find a Bamboo Snake! I can't trust you to do anything right!" "Shut up. At least we caught something this time! And besides, birds taste better than reptiles if you ask me." "Well I didn't! I have the feeling of digesting those God forsaken feathers!"
The man, Yajuu was literally having an argument with himself, between his light and dark sides. The two voices continued to contradict each other as Yajuu turned slightly to the left and walked out of the forest, his goal of catching lunch accomplished.
