So i've had this story on my computer for like... 4 or 5 years now... I wrote it on my way to California, and a little bit while there. I had to re-write some, as it got a taaad corrupted. but hey, might as well upload it, and if people like it i'll think about finishing it... Speaking of finishing, i have a couple of stories to finish.

1. I may not finish "Remembering Myself" i wrote it a long time ago and rereading it i need a LOT of rework on it x.x #ggBaddies
2. I will continue to rewrite "Circle me Nebula" and possibly rename it */badatnamingomfg* also i lost A LOT of chapters i had saved and it caused me to sob.
3. I might also be coming out with a new story after this. one i wrote waaay back then about Deidara's daughter. ((yeah i know he'd have to be pretty young ))
4. None of my Assassins Creed stories will be finished, they've been dropped. but i may take a look at them... I dunno.
5. Enjoy the story please? :3

Wind Country. The hottest, driest and windiest places in the elemental countries… But to the ninja's that live there in Suna its home sweet home… Our story takes place in this certain area. Our story is about a young girl who helped not only helped a boy who thought he was a nothing but a killing machine, but also showed a man who thought he was nothing that everyone, has a chance at love. This is the story about Fenix Leingod, Ninja of Suna.

On the warm night in Suna a woman by the name of Mira was in labor. Near the same time the Kazekage's wife was in labor with their third child, the child with the Shukaku. Mira hissed in pain as another contraction hit and bit her lip until it bled.

Her husband stood outside pacing he ran a hand through his Dishwater blond hair when he heard his wife cry out in pain and then the sound of a child crying it's wails were a little loud and Kouga Leingod rushed in to see the medic Nin shaking.

He went over and looked at the child it didn't have human ears, but small little red-orange fox ears and a full head of red-orange hair with streaks of dishwater blond. It had whisker-like markings on its face and its nails were shaped into claws.

"W-what is it? How's my wife?" The medic Nin stopped shaking and handed the child over its ears twitched and it stopped crying and opened its eyes slowly its eyes were a forest green like his wife with small flecks of Gold in them. The main medic came over and moved the blanket enough for him to see the child was a girl and had a small, fluffy fox tail. That was the same color as her ears and with white on the tips.

"First it's a girl… and I don't know how but it has Fox-like appendages and claws, secondly your wife is… Your wife is dead. The birth took a toll to her and we weren't able to save her. Leingod-San what will you name the child?" The Medic Nin took the child and gave her to a nurse to clean while he held out papers for Kouga to sign.

"Fenix…"

"Excuse me?"

"Mira always wanted a girl named Fenix, even if it is a monster…" he glared at the child like it would strike him at any second and kill him dead. He then wrote the name on paper. Fenix Leingod… This moment of spite that he felt towards the child only grew with the years because she reminded him of his dead wife.


-Several Years Later...-

"GET BACK HERE DEMON!" the young girl laid her fox ears back as her tail swished behind her as she ran through the streets of Suna she passes buildings running at faster speeds than the angry ninja's behind her all she did was play with one of the ninja's daughters testing out her newfound ability, Control of Manipulation and growing of plants, to make a small gift for the brown haired girl. When her Father found her playing with her he kicked Fenix in the side and took the gift, a small white and blue rose, and crushed it into nothing.

She ran into an alleyway and hid slowing her breathing as she watched them go past she sniffed and gently touched her side wound it was a chakra filled kick which would end up probably a broken bone. But surprisingly she healed faster than the average child so she was usually fine. She walked out of the alley holding her left ribs and she walked to the playground she saw a small boy with a teddy bear sitting on the swings alone. No one was near him. She walked over to him wincing as she breathed she sat down on the swing next to him.

He glanced over and sand swirled around him, her tail twitched and she pressed her ears back. And lowered her Forest green eyes the gold flecks glinting like sparks from a fire. The sand stopped swirling. And the boy looked ahead. His hair wasn't just red. It was blood red, he had dark circles around his eyes.

"Hi." She said timidly the boy looked back at her and his teal eyes stared at her own. "My name is Fenix. What's yours, Ne?"

"Gaara…" he said slowly as if waiting for her to attack.

"Do you want to play Gaara-San, Ne?"

"P-play?" he asked his eyes widened in shock while he comprehended the words.

"Yeah! No one else plays with me… and no one plays with you… So let's play together, Ne!"

"Why would you play with me? I could kill you."

"So? If you kill me my father wouldn't care, Ne." she looked down and pulled a small seed from her pocket adding her powers she let it grow into a Yellow Daffodil. "Here, Ne, It means hope…

He looked at the flower and took it out of her hand the sand around him swirled and gently touched her cheek. "Thank you… But, Why?"

"Because we are both alone, and it hurts to be alone, Ne, well I better goes before they find me… Bai, Bai now, Ne!" She stood up bowed to him and then ran off out of the park waving to him before the same words we're yelled at her.

"There she is! Let's get the little Demons!" She flinched and turned to run jumping on the wall of the playground being followed by civilians and Ninja's only 6 chased her but they had weapons and this time she might not live this one out.

"Leave me alone, Ne!" she ran faster when something wrapped around her legs and pulled her off of the wall she hit the ground harshly and hissed when she hit her left side she looked down and saw it was a wire trap… she pulled out some seeds and made birds of paradise that animated into real flying flowers to buy her some time to get the wire off when she did only to be grabbed by one of the Ninja's.

"Her ears would make a nice evil ward…" he growled and pulled out a kunai and pressed them to her ears slowly dragging it along one of the furry ears causing some blood to trickle.

"S-stop, Ne, Don't!" Suddenly sand pulled her away from the men. They shivered and saw that Gaara had her now. "Gaara-San, Ne!" she cried out in joy and caressed some of the sand with her hand and her tail wagged happily feeling the tissue of her ear starting to mend. He put her down and stared at the blood. An inhuman growl erupted from him.

"You. Hurt. Her." Sand gathered around them encasing their bodies and he raised his fist and clenched it the sand compacted and blood spurt through showering the area. Fenix's eyes widened as a sand umbrella covered them from the blood.

"Gaara-San…" She hugged his neck and he stiffened the sand around his feet moved. "Arigatou Gozaimasu, Ne." she said and let go she smiled and noticed the flower she made him was still in his hand. "You're my friend now right, Ne?"

"…" he remained silent but slightly nodded she hugged him again and he wondered why Shukaku wasn't protecting him from the contact.

"Gaara-San I have to go home now before… Father finds out I'm missing…" she said the word Father with such spite her tail bristled she bowed to Gaara and waved as she ran to her home. She jumped on the rooftops and saw her home from where she was. It wasn't that far but if she didn't hurry her father would be home before her and most likely beat her for it. She pushed her legs harder and made it in time she quickly started on dinner and it was mid-cooked when he walked in.

"Why is there blood on your ear? And why are your clothes dirty… You went out again… Didn't you?!" he growled at the 10 year old and grabbed the pot she had food in and threw it into the sink he then grabbed her hair and dragged her to her room even though she could walk herself and threw her into her room locking it from the outside she sat on her bed hungry with tears threatening to spill, but this was nothing new...

"Why me?" she hugged her knees letting her tail wrap around her feet and she pressed her ears to her skull and she laid her head on her knees falling asleep in that same position.
