Irritation
Whistling winds weaved thru tall forest trees, sounding eerie and ominous. A woman, woven out of beauty huffed in the branches of a tree. Her pink hair was whipping around her, long lashes surrounding bright green eyes, and her skin was awfully pale. Her name was Sakura.
She was alone, fleeing her village so she may breathe on her own. Figuratively , she was exhausted from the constant doting attention from Lee and Naruto. She jumped down from her perch and ran , dodging tree after tree. She looked like she was preforming a whimsical ballet while she was twisting , turning, leaping, and landing with grace.
She never stopped her movements til night fall to drained to return all the way home. She looked out in the dark distance, zoning in that the ground was now sand instead of lush grass. "I'm near Suna.", she was rather surprised how far she traveled.
She walked forward. Cold wind whipped around her nearly freezing. Moments and moments passed but she was finally at the gates of the sand village. Guards looked at her with curiosity nodding to one another. Sand whipped infront of them, than before she could squeal her surprise Gaara was before her.
" Welcome to my village Sakura , how may this Gaara be of service?", he seemed distant and retrained...like always. "I was running from Naruto and Lee...", she started explaining her situation until she heard a growl.
What was that? Did Gaara growl? Her thoughts trailed until she heard a cough. " Well you see they don't seem to understand no, so I needed a breather. I traveled this far and it be dangerous to travel back this late.", she looked up at the Kazekage hopefully. He nodded to the gaurds and went thru the gates. "Come you shall stay in this one's quaters until you decided to leave. I shall send a messaged to your village.", he gritted thru this teeth.
She followed quietly behind unsure how to handle this sudden dislike for her. Did this sudden entrance upset him so much, surely he was more collected than that. She was more than confused to say the least.
" I have a proposal for you. We shall talk about it once you wake in the morning. ", he was cold, even more distant than normal. He then lead her into a room instead a dome shaped brick house. She walked inside for him only to slam the door right after. " Geez I've really pissed him off.", she slumped onto the bed.
Sun peaked thru cracks in between the curtains. Sakura woke feeling nearly blinded and dazed. "Where am i?", she looked around and then recalled the events of last night. " Stupid Lee, clingy Naruto. I swear! ", her hands went into the air in a show of annoyance.
" I wonder what Gaara propsal is? Does he need more medical training to the doctors here in Suna?", she was pondering to herself. "Well that is half of it.", the red head spoke in the frame of the door. Leaning against the wood looking better than last night. Sakura in her surprise fell off the bed to be caught by sand.
" Thank you for catching me Kazekage.", she got up and bowed respectfully. "There is no need for that for if this goes as I hope, you shall be of equal position.", he was trying his best to smile politely at her.
She was confused an angry. Why couldn't he just come out an say what this proposal was. " Come, we shall talk further at breakfast. ", he wrapped sand around her hand and dragged her behind him. Soon they were in the Kazekage's office eating out of cactus bowls filled with meat and fruits. Sakura looked around noticing there were alot of cactus plants around the office. " It is a hobby of mine.", he waved his hand in dismissal.
"The elders of this village have been on my case of an heir an a partner to share the work load. You are seemingly the one female besides my sister I can stand. So this proposal is an actual proposal. You become Kazehime, produce me at least two heirs if not more and you will have a happy life here in Suna. The leaf in return will have more options for trade , I will let your Hokage use my ninjas if need arrives, we will visit ur village for 3 days each month, and there will never be a dispute between our villages again. This will also ensure a ever lasting treaty.", he was calm , sure of himself.
Sakura sat there paler than normal. Her mouth agape while her thoughts ran wild. Marry Gaara? Produce heirs? Give up my life? This would be best for my village thou. Can I do this?
" I will agree only and if only my Hokage approves. ", she tried to sound nice about it. " Well then it is decided. Your Hokage approved of my request months ago but said I must ask you.", he then opened a drawer in his desk. "These papers are the contract between you and I. Read them them sign.", he tossed the stack and a pen towards me.
