Why is the reason Gaara has no eyebrows? Inspired by some icon I saw.


Gaara sat down on the bench nervously. He looked around the police office as people bustled by. There were ANBU, detectives and secretaries.

Gaara looked at the ANBU member in front of him. The face was covered by a mask. He unknowingly began playing with his fingers.

"Gaara", the ANBU said firmly. "I want you to describe with detail exactly what happened."

The red-haired boy sighed yet. When he spoke, his voice was unusually high and squeaky.

"Well, my dad is here for a business meeting with Sandaime and I decided to tag along. Last night, the meeting ran later than expected due to a new issue that came up. Dad told me to go back to the hotel by myself. I was walking when –when…."

Gaara broke down sniffling. His lips quivered and he struggled to talk.

"…When they c-came out. That L-lee and his s-sensei! They came o-out faster than l-light and ripped m-my eyebrows off! T-then whish they're GONE!"

After finishing that last part, Gaara broke into uncontrollable tears and wails. The ANBU handed him a hanky in which Gaara hiccupped into and squeaked a "thank you". The ANBU could only stare at the area above Gaara's eyes which were now empty.


Well, that was a waste of time. I gotta tell you, this was a total minute-done piece of work.
