Haiiiiii! Joy reporting to duty! To hopefully provide you with a fan fiction that will make you feel like a jelly bean! Now its silly to say that I don't own any characters in this Fan fiction, because If I did, I be too busy glomping Gaara cause I own him tee hee. Except Joy and maybe another character which I do own. But I won't name her in till I finally decide too. Now if you wuv this fanfiction, and maybe wuv Joy,or Wuv Temari! Or of course wuv Gaara..leave some wuving in a review! And if you flame, that will make Joy cry. And that would make you a big meanie! YOSH!
Now the current story line in the actual Naruto doesn't affect my fan fiction. I'm Placing Gaara as 15 and of course Temari as 16,but Gaara didn't become the KazeKage ((does he? I haven't gotten as far as the time skip only watched the anime until Sasuke left pretty much and too many fillers, I heard rumors and fillers slip out, sorry if I get anything wrong)) If I DO get anything wrong, just tell me.
Italics like this are peoples thoughts okies?
There was soft taps of shoes against tiled ground, a short red haired boy wearing as dark clothes as his soul came striding down the hallway. He stopped only momentarily in front of a door, only dim sunlight came shinning down from a small window lit the hallway, so only partly of his face was seeable. A glimpse of icy blue eyes, so cold as if they held the worlds anger in they're depths.
Don't know what would concern me ,as to call me up like this…Knocking twice then letting himself in, he slipped through the door, and closed it quietly behind him, looking up to stare at the man that had called him up, sitting behind a desk, neatly piled paper work stacked the desk.
"Ahh, Gaara-sama. You're here, please sit down beside Temari-dono."((A.N Ne ne, Dono is added to names to refer to elite people, ninjas, samurai ect.)) The Hidden Sand village KazeKage motioned to a seat. His voice had a hint of fear, as most people did when dealing with Gaara. Though his eyes were cold and dead inside.
Gaara's icy blue eyes glanced at Temari who's face was sullen, as if bearing great doom. Gaara sat down, looking out the large windows that stood behind the Kazekage. "Its has been informed since two week prior that your team mate Kankurou has been found killed while on his way back from a mission, of course Medic nin are still trying to find any traces to point down the killer." Temari bit her lip, her eyes shadowed, trying to hide the emotion in her face, she looked back up her face emotionless now,she kenw this all came with being a ninja, even if it was diffucult. After practicing in the mirror for hours in till even when she thought about her team mate, her friend, she didn't sob anymore.
While on the other hand, Gaara only blinked, his face never changing, just a dull on look, as his patience was wearing as thin as a thread of silk. He already knew this for about two weeks now, there was no point bringing it up, he just thought it was pathetic that Kankurou had been killed, he thought him better then that. He felt a bit stupid for estimating that now.Even after all the time he has spent with him over the years, he had only warmed up to him a bit, breaking down a bit of the wall since the Naruto incident. But the leaning wall, the door to his emotions was still locked shut He was worthless anyways..
The KazeKage continued after clearing his thought he checked a few papers. " Now onto another matter. Your new teammate has been chosen finally. She has just come to us, we have checked her thoroughly under many jutsu. She's clean. Her name is-"
The KazeKage had been interrupted by a loud clash, like something running into something, or a large object knocking hitting the floor. There was a moment of silence, so silent that there was a ringing sound in all the ears that happened to be in the room at that moment, though one was going to be another person joining them soon.
The door swung open and like a wush of water flooding in a girl leapt into the room, long green pigtails streaming behind her shoulder, like long strips of forest, glistening in the sunlight that shone through the window. The sun kissed skinned girl landed on her tipsy toe, the other leg stretched up like a ballerina as she spun around twice, then stopped to face them again and bowed deeply, one foot behind the other, the arm raised gracefully, and the other arm tucked beneath her impressive chest.
The room was silent once more, One face, Temari's raised an eyebrow, though a small smirk tucking at the corner of her soft pinkish lips. The other held an odd bewildered look, that happened to be the KazeKages. The other pushed of what of been his eyebrows forward, annoyance written all over his face. He looked over at the KazeKage and opened his mouth for a moment. Then closed it, then opened again. "No."
Kazekage coughed covering his mouth, the strange girl looked up with extremely bright lime green eyes, that seemed like the essence of happiness then skipped over to his desk, passing the sitting Temari and Gaara, and hopped onto his desk, sitting on a pile of paper work. Crossing one leg over the other, which happened to be unevenly wrapped with white bandages. Small panda heads drawn along the surface. On the left leg ithe bandages were just a few cm above the ankle, on the right just below her knee.
The girl looked at Gaara curiously, tilting her head, so a long green piece of hair framed her tanned face, the perfect picture of utter cuteness, with a small nose, lips the color of cotton candy,and big lime green eyes, like giant pools of playfulness, and long thick eyelashes that made shadows on her rosy cheeks it almost made you want to just hug her to death, literally.
She raised her hand up, as if answering a question from her sensei. "Haiiiii!" Her voice had a singing quality to it, high but soft enough that it didn't get annoying, well to most people, the reason why Joy said "haii" is still unknown, sadly no jutsu has been made to figure out why crazy people say the things they do((XD)). Temari eyesbrows just rose even higher,her sea green eyes.((A/N Blue, or a bit greenish. I couldn't decide.)) turned to face the KazeKage. "Is she our new Team Mate..or just some random love child of yours?" The KazeKage frowned disapprovingly but decided to let it past just this once. "She's the first of what your speak of…her Name is-"
Cut off twice this day, Joy waved her hand, a look of anxiety and excitement on her face. "Oh Oh! Joy is Joy! She hopes she can play lots of games with you!" Joy nodded furiously as well as giving her winning smile, her long pigtails lifting and falling ever so slightly. Gaara closed his eyes, crossing his arms, all he could think about is when he was going to get the chance to kill this annoying girl.
"Now, before I dismiss you. Please don't under estimate Joy-chan, even if she seems a bit.." Joy looked behind her, her eyes almost seemed like they were going to burst into full water works, just big dewyness as they sparkled with unshedded tears, her lips pouting. "–Ahem. Anyways, Joy seems to have a bit of a problem with memory, so jsut help her with anything. And oh, since she has no other place to stay, she will be living in the extra room that Gaara has in his living quarters. That is all."
Gaara's eyes shot open, to blankly stare at the KazeKage. Temari stood up and walked towards the door, before turning and bowing to the KazeKage. "Come on Joy-chan hurry up and follow me." She was a bit worried, this girl seemed overly sensitive, pretty much like a child, and who knows what Gaara would do to her.
Joy jumped off, adjusting the short sleeved black silk Chinese style shirt that hugged her curves which ever way she moved. Small pictures of bamboo trees and water lily's and bells outlined in gold silk. Temari looked at her full outfit which consisted of her top and a long black skirt, mid thigh, the sides were bare and showed the same fish net leg bands that Temari used to wear when she was younger, on Joys little feet were the normal sandals that seemed to famous among everyone. As Gaara slowly stood up, his eyes bearing into the Kazekage as if he could see right to his soul, his minds running wild.
The KazeKage stiffened, trying to keep him calm, he only relaxed as Gaara turned his back and headed towards the other two. Joy smiled sweetly up at him, looking up at him. Gaara wasn't very tall, even Temari was bigger then him, but Joy was still even shorter then him. Coming up to his chin. Gaara continued past them, as Temari followed behind, Joy by her side.
As they walked down the hall and the long steps that lead to ground level and towards the main part of town, Joy tugged lightly on Temari's black sleeve. "Ne ne is Onee-chan going to live near Joy and Gaara-chan too?" Joy had a little anxiety in her eyes as she still held onto a Temari's sleeve, as if she let it go she might just get swallowed up by the crowd of people that occupied the road and become utterly lost. Though a small path was being cleared as people noticed Gaara, low whispers following as they passed. Gaara kept his stone face mask on, no emotion could be seen or known, it made you wonder did he have emotions to start with? Temari rose an eyebrow once again, a bit baffeled being called Onee-chan. Sure, most little kids called her that, but even if this girl seemed a bit childish, okay extremely childish, she should be around their age range, Joy had a chest to prove it aswell. Though as Joy peered up at Temaris face, with big awed look in her eyes, it just seemed to fit that she called Temari Onee-chan. Secertly Joy was wondering how Temari got her hair to look like a star fish. But that's another question for an another day.
"Hai, don't worry Joy-chan. I'm living right by you and Gaara…"Pointing over to the red headed boy, who walked a bit ahead of them. Joy smiled appeared once more, her eyes sparkling with genuine glee. "Joys so happy! Onee-chan and Gaara and Joy can play lots of games ne ne and-" Joy stopped when Gaara turned to face her and Temari, he stared coldly at Joy, almost so deeply it could almost appear that he could kill her with this stare.
"Your third person talking is annoying, your even more annoying. No way in hell are you living with us. Your proubly weak as well, with that childish behaviour..your almost exactly like him!" Gaara's chest rose and fell, his hands bunched up in fists. If only he had his sand gourd, sure there was plenty of sand around. He was tempted, but he had promised himself long ago after the Chunnin Exam incident that he'll try and be less…blood thirsty and be more patient.
Joys eyes widened as big as dinner plates, and soon they became glossy, Joy shut her eyes closed as to try not let the tears escape, but a few slid down her check, hanging on her chin before plopping to the sandy ground. Joys hand slipped from her gripping of Temaris sleeve as they rushed to wipe away the over flowing tears, a few muffled soft sobs escaping her lips.
Temari gasped and turned to Gaara angrily, for a moment not scared of him, not scared that Gaara might lose it when he got yelled at, which he was about to be. "Baka! You should tell that Joy-chan is sensitive! And look you made her cry! Apologize to her!" Gaara mouth was a small o, it wasn't that he felt bad about saying the things he did, and he actually felt good getting it off his chest. But he didn't get the satisfaction he would have liked, because through the tears and soft sobs. The pigtailed girl, standing alone in a sea of strange unknown faces. Was smiling, as Joy looked up at Gaara, a few tears running down her face, she was smiling as if she couldn't be any happier.
Gaara was a bit baffled, he could have been less baffled if a giant army of flying mammoths came swooping down at him. What is this girl?Is she retarted…why the hell is she smiling? Joy hiccupped as her fingers kept on catching a few tears. Before she spoke. "Gaara..Gaara took the time to label Joy, to judge Joy. That means he knows she exists.. Gaara acknowledged Joy. This makes..Joy very happy!" As Joy kept on crying Gaara stood there, soon his mind gave up with trying to say anything more. He turned again and kept on making his way through the crowded street. Muttering under his breath, cursing this stupid girl.
Joy took a deep breath and wiped away all the tears, though her eyes still sparkled, the smile stilled remained. That priceless smile seemed like it could last an eternity. She skipped behind Gaara ,her pigtails flapping in the wind like streamers.
Temari stood there for a minute, absorbing all this in. A small smirk playing across her striking face. She had a feeling something was going to happen, she didn't know what, if it was good or bad, big or small. But something. She put her hands behind her head as she took big steps to catch up with the other two. "A Boy who holds the worlds anger within in him, and a girl who could melt the devil with her smile…what a show that will be put on for me." Laughing slightly, Gaara turned his head, his cold blue eyes on her face, she stopped laughing immediately, but that smirk stilled remained.
