A/N: I do NOT own Naruto. Only the character Jesshika. Bloodytears87 is the owner of Saara.
"I am glad to see you are both back home where you belong." Tsunade said, while gathering both Jesshika and Saara into a hug.
"Thank you, Lady Tsuande." we said once she released us. Nodding, she turned to Kakashi.
"I want a full report from you. Genma, Izumo, take your sisters to the hospital for evaluation. Dismissed!" she said. Everyone bowed and left, leaving Kakashi behind to deal with the details. Once outside the tower, Naruto and Kiba came running up to us, followed by Sasuke and Hinata.
"Jesshika! Saara! You're back!" Naruto yelled.
"Thank Kami you're safe!" Kiba said. They grabbed us up into their arms and swung us around as we laughed. The others just looked on.
"Kiba-kun, it's great to see you. Put me down!" I laughed.
"Naru-chan you're making me dizzy!" Saara yelped. Naruto and Kiba stopped spinning us and placed us on our feet. We let go of them and stepped back but the dizziness started to get to us. We fell backwards into Gaara and Kankuro's arms.
"Thanks, Kuro-kun." I said trying to stand up.
"Yeah, at least you didn't let us fall on our asses." Saara said laughing. Everyone joined in the laughter as well.
"It's really great to have you back." Hinata said. Saara and I hugged her.
"Thanks, Hinata." I said. Genma and Izumo put their arms around our shoulders.
"We need to get you two to the hospital." Genma stated. Saara and I groaned.
"Do we have to?" we whined. Izumo nodded.
"Hokage's orders." he said. Sighing in defeat, Kankuro and Gaara took our hands and led us towards the hospital behind our brothers. When we arrived at the hospital, Shizune was waiting for us.
"Come on girls. This way." she said as she led us to our rooms.
"Umm...Shizune?" Saara said. Shizune turned to look at us eyebrow raised.
"Hai?" she said.
"Can Jessie-nee-chan and I share a room?" Saara asked.
"We don't want to be apart right now." I said. Shizune nodded.
"Of course. I'll just get Ino and Sakura to set up one of the other rooms for you." she replied.
"Thank you." we said.
"No problem. But for right now, let's just go in here and check you over, okay?" Shizune said.
"Alright." we agreed. We followed her into the room and jumped up onto the bed.
"Okay guys, everyone out. The girls need to get into hospital gowns." Shizune said. She handed us our gowns and pushed the guys out the door. A few minutes later after we were changed and sitting on the bed, Shizune let the guys back in.
"I assume Genma and Izumo, you want to be present while the girls are checked?" she asked.
"Definitely." Izumo said.
"I'm not leaving until I know my nee-chan is fine." Genma said.
"Gennie, I'm fine. We're fine." I said looking at my brother.
"Yeah, nothing happened to us." Saara agreed looking at her brother.
"But still, let her check you over anyway." Izumo said.
"If it makes you guys feel better, then fine. Go ahead, Shizune." we said. Gaara stepped out of the room, pulling Kankuro behind him to give us some privacy.
"Gaara? What are you doing? I want to make sure Jesshika is okay!" Kankuro hissed as soon as Gaara let him go.
"I know. I also want to know if Saara is alright, but it is not our place to be in there." Gaara reasoned. Kankuro hung his head and sat down to wait.
"You're right. Until she is my wife, I just have to wait." he said. Gaara raised his brow at him.
"You're wife?" he said questioningly.
"Hai, I plan on asking her to marry me." Kankuro answered.
"That's good. But you had better ask Genma first. He is her guardian after all." Gaara reminded him. Before Kankuro could reply, Shizune stuck her head out the door.
"Lord Kazekage, Kankuro, the girls are asking for you." she said.
"Thank you Shizune." Gaara said as they walked back into the room. Genma and Izumo were sitting next to us on the bed with their arms around us looking worried. Gaara and Kankuro instantly went on alert and quickly moved towards us.
"Is...is something wro..wrong?" Kankuro asked nervously looking from face to face. Saara and I sighed.
"No, we told you already. Nothing happened. We are fine, right Shizune?" Saara asked.
"They are physically healthy, but we are going to keep them for a day for observation." Shizune said.
"Are you sure that's all?" Gaara asked. Shizune nodded.
"It's routine so there is nothing to worry about for now." she said. Suddenly there was a knock on the door. Shizune went to open it.
"Hai?" she said. Sakura and Ino were waiting outside the room.
"The room with the double beds is ready now." Sakura said.
"Thank you Sakura, Ino." Shizune replied as she turned to us.
"Saara, Jesshika, you're room is ready now. If you will follow me." she said. We stood up to follow her out of the room. When Ino saw it was us, she quickly pulled us into a hug.
"I heard you two were back. Thank Kami!" she said. We hugged her back for a moment before we pulled apart.
"Thanks Ino." we said.
"Come on, I'll help you get settled." Ino said taking our hands and pulling us into the hall. As we passed Sakura, Saara and I glared at her, growling low. Genma and Izumo hurried behind us keeping a safe distance between us and the pinkette who was cowering against the wall. We made it to the room and Ino helped us get settled into our beds. Genma and Izumo stayed by our side most of the afternoon, until they were summoned by Tsunade. Kankuro and Gaara agreed to stay with us overnight, as our brothers could not.
"Lord Kazekage, Kankuro, will you be staying with them tonight?" Ino asked.
"Yes, we promised to keep an eye on them for Genma and Izumo." Kankuro replied.
"Alright then. I will have two cots brought in for you." Ino said. She left the room and headed towards the supply room, pulling a hiding Sakura behind her. A few minutes later, they returned with the cots and set them up.
"Is there anything else you need?" Sakura asked through gritted teeth. Saara and I looked at each other before turning back to her.
"No. You're dismissed." we said. Sakura clenched her hands into fists and forced a smile. Ino had to put her hand over her mouth to hide her smirk.
"Please call if you need anything." Sakura said as she left. When she was gone, Ino started to laugh.
"You never give her a break, do you?" she said before following out the door and closing it softly behind her. Later that night, after we had eaten what the nurses assured us was actually food, we settled in to sleep. Kankuro and Gaara kissed us on the head before laying down on the cots. A few hours later, Gaara and Kankuro were startled awake. Looking around, they tried to figure out what it was. It finally dawned on them we were talking in our sleep. They got off their cots and came to stand next to us. They leaned down a bit so they could hear what we were saying.
"No, don't leave Hida-kun!" I mumbled.
"Dei-kun please come back." Saara said. Gaara and Kankuro stood up and looked at each other in surprise. Saying nothing, they went back to their cots to lay down, but neither went to sleep. The next morning we awoke to them watching us.
"Oh good morning, Kuro-kun." I said smiling at him.
"Morning, Gaara-kun." Saara said. Gaara and Kankuro just looked at us before answering.
"Morning." they said. Tsunade came in half an hour later.
"Oh, you're up. Good. Let's just check you over, ne?" she said looking at us. Gaara and Kankuro stood up and walked out without saying a word.
"What's wrong with them?" Tsunade asked after they left. Saara and I shrugged.
"No idea." we said. Tsunade shook her head and brushed it off.
"Let's get started then." she said. Two hours later we were finished and declared healthy enough to go home later that day. Genma and Izumo walked in with Gaara and Kankuro behind them.
"How are they?" Genma asked.
"They are just fine. No damage done. They can go home later this afternoon." Tsunade told them. Genma and Izumo sighed in relief and hugged us.
"Thank Kami!" they said. Gaara stepped forward.
"Since you are here now, we will take our leave. We have to find Baki and Temari." he said.
"Thank you for staying with them last night." Izumo said.
"No problem." Kankuro stated. Gaara and Kankuro walked over to us, giving us a quick kiss on the head before turning and walking out. Saara and I looked at each other, stunned by their actions.
"What...was that?" I whispered to Saara.
"I..really don't know." she whispered back. Tsunade raised a brow but said nothing. Instead she turned to us with a smile.
"Care to tell us what happened while you were caught?" she asked. Saara and I turned to them with an evil grin and told them all that we had done. They were all laughing as we told them how I used a senbon to keep Tobi from talking, dye to color Deidara and Hidan's tongues, and how we freaked out Sasori with marshmallows on chopsticks and lighters. Tsunade had us pause in our telling so she could answer the door when we heard a knock. Opening it Yamato walked in with two flowers, a blue carnation and a pink rose.
"How are you doing?" he asked.
"Fine. We were just telling them what we did while we were kidnapped." Saara said taking the rose.
"And we haven't even gotten to the best part yet." I added taking the carnation. We thanked him as Genma brought out two vases for them. We continued our story while Yamato sat down. He almost died laughing when we told them how we stole Kakuzu's wallet and blamed Tobi, buzzed Itachi out of his mind on caffeine, and how we tricked Zetsu into eating chocolate flavored laxatives. We told them how Itachi wouldn't listen to Saara when he put us in that small cave so we got revenge by placing saran wrap over the upper part of the living room doorway then tricked him into chasing us.
"Sounds like the Akatsuki had their hands full with the chaos twins, huh?" Yamato asked when he stopped laughing.
"Those poor bastards. It's a wonder they survived you that long." Genma said.
"I bet they would never do that again." Izumo added. Saara and I crossed our arms and huffed.
"We aren't that bad!" we pouted. Everyone looked at us and burst out laughing again. Once things were calmed down again, Tsunade told us we could leave around noon, which was two hours away. Genma and Izumo quickly left to get us clean clothes to wear home. Tsunade checked us over once more before leaving the hospital. Yamato stayed behind for a little while before he too, took off. Saara and I laid back and looked at each other.
"What do you think was wrong with the guys this morning?" I asked.
"I don't know. Maybe just tired from being stressed?" Saara suggested.
"Hm..maybe." I replied. We sat in silence until our brothers returned and we were discharged. On the way out of the hospital, Gaara and Kankuro came up to us.
"You were discharged already?" asked Kankuro. We nodded.
"Yeah, just a few minutes ago." Saara said.
"But we have to go right home." I added. Gaara looked at us.
"Tsunade's orders?" he asked.
"Always." we sighed. Genma and Izumo led us back to Genma's house. Izumo and Saara would be staying with us for a few days as we did not want to be separated just yet. A week after we were discharged from the hospital, Gaara and Kankuro came to pick us up. We went for a walk around the village before ending up at the training grounds where we had met.
"Guys, what's wrong?" I asked.
"You've been acting cold all week." Saara said. Gaara and Kankuro turned to face us.
"You want to know what's wrong? Well I'll tell you." Kankuro growled out. Saara and I stepped back away from them.
"The night we stayed with you at the hospital we woke up to hear you two talking in your sleep." Gaara started.
"So? We always talk in our sleep." I said.
"What's the big deal anyway?" Saara asked. We stared at them in confusion before Gaara continued.
"Saara, you were yelling for Dei-kun to come back." he said coldly.
"And you Jesshika, you told Hida-kun don't leave." Kankuro said just as icily. Saara and I looked at them in shock.
"Is that what this is about? We told you they were trying to save us from the others. That's all!" I yelled. Kankuro stepped up close to me.
" I think it was more than that. You cheated on us with them, didn't you?" he demanded. I backed away and looked into his eyes.
"No...no! How could you even think that? I love you Kuro-kun!" I cried.
"What else are we supposed to think when our girlfriends jump in to save them, then are talking about them in your sleep?" Gaara snapped. Saara and I looked at each other before turning back to them.
"You...you perverts! You know we would never cheat on you!" Saara shouted.
"How do we really know that? They are S-rank criminals!" Kankuro yelled.
"And after everything Deidara did to me, it had to be him, Saara?" Gaara said dangerously. We had had enough. Saara and I reached up and slapped them hard across the face, leaving a very red welt. They looked at us in shock.
"I never...ever want to see you again! You hear me?" Saara screamed at Gaara.
"And you! I will never forgive you. I loved you with all my heart! Don't ever come near me again!" I growled at Kankuro. Saara and I turned and ran back towards the village leaving them alone. As we reached the house, we ran in to where Genma and Izumo were sitting in the kitchen with Raidou and Kotetsu. Upon seeing us, they all stood up.
"Nee-chan, what's wrong?" Genma asked. Saara and I flung ourselves into their arms as a sob was tore from our throats. Sinking to the floor with them while they held us, we told them everything.
"Those bastards. Wait till I get my hands on them." Kotetsu shouted. We shook our heads.
"No, we don't want to see them ever again." Saara said.
"Never again." I said. Finally, the tears that we had been holding back while we raced home finally began to fall. We cried as our brothers held us late into the night until we fell asleep, exhausted. Genma and Izumo carried us to our beds for the night. The next day, Kankuro and Gaara left with Baki and Temari to go back to Suna. They didn't bother to contact us ever again.
