Gaara's friend
Footsteps echoed as two lonely feet crushed leaves beneath them, whistling tornadoes of leaves lifted up from the ground spinning rapidly but gracefully falling to the soft earth below. Trees swayed in the cool morning breeze undisturbed in their forest until a teen boy leaped onto their branches. They now swayed angrily as the boy found a spot to rest.
Gaara sat on the tree nearly reduced to tears his heart broken in two by his secret crush. His head was confused and angry, the pain almost unbearable. A few hours before, Gaara was pacing up and down a lonely street staring at a fantastic, beautiful, charming girl who he dared not confront.
He walked slowly up to the girl who stared back smiling weakly, Gaara's head went away for a few moments until the girl said
'Are you Gaara? You know you've been stalking me right? Well I'm sorry I can't fill the whole in your heart you feel for me'. The girl grunted and walked away slowly but with more confidence then Gaara had ever come across.
Not thinking Gaara ran after the unnamed girl, until his clumsy feet tripped him up on something. He swore loudly and looked underneath him, the girl laid there looking up at Gaara. Her eyes glowing with so much sadness that Gaara was drawn down to her, he leaned close to her their eyes meeting for a few seconds.
Gaara stood up starring down at the girl who was slowly getting up; he cleared his throat and coughed a couple of times. Gaara looked deep into her eyes like her was reaching into her body and searching her soul
'My name is Gaara, yes. The thing is I have not been stalking you I have been drawing myself to your beauty' Gaara smiled cheekily.
The girl rubbed her neck with the palm of her hand 'I'm Ziano, I've come here to, you could say have sometime off. You seem like a smart guy, I like that in guys' Ziano replied. She walked away her brown hair swaying in the wind.
Out of know where three sand ninjas appeared surrounding Gaara, he got ready to fight but the three men came slowly up to him with ease. He looked cautiously around, why would they target him? The ninja in the middle approached him closest his silver spiked hair and eyes confronting Gaara so viciously.
'This girl have you seen her, she goes by the name Ziano? She's a great threat to all who are around her and must be stopped' said the ninja looking Gaara up and down.
The ninja on the left held up a picture of the girl Gaara talked to moments before. Confused and worried Gaara nodded slowly, he signalled for the men to follow him. Gaara walked causally down the street not knowing where the girl went, he took bigger steps the closer the men got to him. Out the corner of his eye he saw the Ziano hiding behind an abandoned fruit stall.
Gaara led the men to her, when their eyes met for the third time, the girl didn't have that confident she had before but now she looked scared and frightened. The men thanked Gaara expecting him to leave but he stood out side the triangle now formed around Ziano. The man who had approached Gaara first leaned into the girl, he had something in his hand, what?
The sun reflected off the blade and into Gaara's eye, he didn't care about this beam of light but of the high pitched scream that filled his ears when Ziano screamed in pain. The men split up and ran away from the scene. Gaara knelt beside Ziano she whimpered softly
'Goodbye friend' said Ziano and she took her last breath.
