A/N: Yay! New story! The sequel to 'Not Another High School Story' -sniff- I'm so proud: Please R&R and I'll continue if you like it. Thanks!

It had been a week since Shukaku had popped back into Gaara's brain, filling his head with ridiculous comments and persistent knock-knock jokes. To be honest Gaara wasn't too distraught about his voice returning. He had missed him over the years, albeit he was hopelessly annoying and crude, but when Shukaku vanished it was like he lost an immature brother…or Kankuro.

Since then, he had told his siblings, Sakura and his friends that Shukaku had returned. Temari seemed concerned, Kankuro seemed to be in disbelief, constantly shouting "No way!" Sakura was concerned but then figured it would all be alright, and everyone else just saw it as a quirk of their friend's personality, and soon Temari dropped her defenses.

Gaara was in his room getting dressed for school like any other day. He had brushed his teeth, washed his face and messed with his hair…at the same time. He was an excellent multi-tasker.

So, what's on the agenda today kiddo?

Nothing too special: School. Hang out with Sakura and the guys at lunch. Come home-

Sounds like a blast –exaggerated yawn-

Gaara rolled his eyes at Shukaku. It wasn't too hard to deal with him, but it's when he started critiquing everything you did, being sarcastic and rude, and doing all of this at 7 in the morning. Gaara knew full well he should leave it alone, but he couldn't stop his curiosity.

So what's your idea of a productive day then?

One were you ACTUALLY have fun. I mean, cmon, when's the last time you had a genuinely fun time?!

……

Now that's a shame if I ever saw one…

Shut up Baka, I'm thinking.

Hm…

So Gaara thought…and thought…and thought. He stared at his reflection in his mirror for at least 10 minutes. Of course, he was looking at himself, he was having mental images of all of the times his friends and siblings had been laughing about a joke, or something that had happened, and he had just been sitting there…blank expression…shutting everything out.

"That is kind of a shame…" Gaara mumbled to himself so low Shukaku could barely hear it.

I know how to make you have more fun my red headed amigo!

Gaara's eye twitched slightly at the sound of his nickname. He dreaded asking but he couldn't stop himself.

And how is that?

Suddenly Gaara's body froze, his hands started to shake, then his arms, then his whole body, his eyes rolled back in his head and he let out a faint scream before falling to the ground panting slightly.

"You've gotta let ME out to have more fun!" Shukaku practically screamed. Well, it looked as if Gaara had screamed.

The hell is this?! GIVE ME MY BODY BACK YOU DEMENTED RACCOON!!!

"Now now, Panda, it's only ONE day. I'm sure you can deal with being the voice inside of the idiot for once." Shukaku grinned, which looked horribly wrong on Gaara's face.

You are out of your MIND!

"On the contrary, I'm out of YOURS!" Shukaku laughed and heard footsteps coming up the stairs. Kankuro lagged up the stairs with his fists in his pockets, pouting about another day of forced education.

"Gaara, Tem said it's time to-……Were you just laughing….? AAAAH!" Kankuro screamed and ran downstairs knocking over chairs and a table on the way.

Now you've done it… Gaara sighed

"Kankuro?! The hell is wrong wi-"

"Temari!! IT'S THE APOCALYPSE!!!"

Temari stared at the middle child as if he had the word 'Crazy' spray painted across his face. "The apocalypse? And why would you think that Kanky?" Temari smiled, humoring her brother.

"Gaara was in his room LAUGHING! Full blown laughing! And I didn't see a dead kitten nearby so he's not laughing from something twisted!" Kankuro practically screamed.

"We ready to go, fam?" 'Gaara' asked cheerily from atop the staircase, a big smile on his face snickering under his breath at Temari and Kankuro's facial expression.

"…We'll continue this discussion later." Temari told Kankuro flatly and the trio walked towards the school.

Shukaku. I DEMAND you let me out of here immediately. Gaara ordered, trying to keep calm of the whole situation.

Oh I will, kiddo, just as soon as I make you and your little gal pal have some…teen fun.

What? What?! SHUKAKU!

Oh this is going to be a rather FUN day.

Gaara: What do you mean by 'teen fun' Lillie?

Me:Hehe you'll see!

Gaara:You people are all against me –pouts in a corner-
