All right, let's be simple-

"Gaara-sama, everyone, Gaara-sama is back!" one of the ninja ran past and called into the conference room. The other five in the room looked at each other in shock. Rushing up they gathered outside with the rest of the village. Waiting longer then anyone wanted to, they finally saw the shadow of the retrieval squad along with the Kazekage over the horizon. Cheers roared from the people as they came closer to being home.
The sound of the enthused crowd faded as they silently preyed for their fallen comrade, Chiyo. The five from the conference room were in charged of properly burying the elder the next day. Three days later, after the Konoha allies left for their village, Gaara called the five into his office.
"Gaara-sama," The new top ninja began as they all gave a respectful bow. "It's wonderful to have you back sir." They nodded. Gaara watched for a moment before he spoke.
"Where is Kinto-san?" He was quiet as usual.
"I'm afraid he was killed when you were taken sir. The rest of the top council voted me as the new leader. Though, we have no abjections if you choose to change me for someone else." The ninja gave another small bow.
"Stat summary before I make my decision." Gaara intertwined his hands and placed them in front of his mouth.
"Sir! My name is Mitsu Hiroshima. I am 16 years old and have been in the Kazekage's top squad since I was 11. I specialize in ninjutsu and genjutsu but I am skilled in taijutsu. I no longer have any living relatives in the village and have no problem dieing for the safety of the village." As she spoke, Gaara looked her over, she was very interesting.
Mitsu's hair was pitch black and placed in high pigtails. A v-neck sleeveless net shirt was covered by maroon strapless top. Over that was a purple wrap held in place by one large belt and three smaller ones. Another belt at her hips held up her purple baggie Capri pants and her village head band was wrapped around her left thigh. She had a large wrist band on her left wrist and five different black bands in different places on her right arm. Her right leg was wrapped in white bandage and her left leg was covered in net. Finally her eyes, the left was covered by her bangs but her right, it was silver with a black ring around the color.
"Mitsu, why did you introduce yourself?" Gaara leaned forward placing his hands on his desk.
"You…told me to sir." Mitsu replied.
"Yes, but I didn't think you would actually tell me since I've known you since you joined my father's top ninja. You got tense over the years. Relax or I just might have to hurt you." Gaara gave a small smirk.
"Hurt me?" Mitsu slouched back with her hands on her hips, "Yeah right Coon boy. You couldn't touch me if you wanted too." After a quiet moment she giggled and Gaara gave a small chuckle.
"Everyone is dismissed, and no, Mitsu should serve as a fine top ninja." Everyone nodded and left the office. When the group was down the hallway four stood in front of one,
"How do you get away with talking to Gaara-sama like that?" One of them asked.
"Really, normally he would actually hurt you. What's going on?" Another commented.
"I get away with it because I've known him my entire life. We used to make those jokes all the time." Mitsu shrugged out the reply and walked past them. With a sad look that no one else could see she added, "Then he became very distant." She rounded a corner a disappeared before anyone could catch up.
Mitsu sat on the top watch tower above the Kazekage's building and looked to the sky,
"No more Shukaku, no more reason to protect myself," she dropped her head and smiled, "No more reason to lie."
