Prologue
Name: Amaya Ferrna. Age: 12. Rank: Genin. Home: Konoha. My story? I used to be almost the opposite of what I am now. I probably still would be, but my father was killed. My father, who had taught me all I now know at age three. And, worse, I watched it. I watched two rock nin slaughter my father. I was only six, so I didn't realize what was happening. I didn't mourn for my dad 'til I was nine.
After that terrible turn of events, my family, me and my mom, went bankrupt. We moved to Suna, where my aunt and uncle lived. My family is the one family in Konoha that actually don't live together. My mom got a job, and I went to school. But, at my new school, that's where I met Gaara.
I didn't know. I was left out, because I was a obvious Leaf girl. And one day, I saw him. He was just sitting there, but everyone avoided him. So I went over to him. He needed a friend, and I was there. I always wondered about his eyes, but never questioned him.
And then, my mom got her second paycheck. She had gained lots of money, and we were going to move back to Konoha. She missed our farm, and I did too, but I still didn't want to leave. So I got back to my home, and tried to block out the best two months of my life.
