Chapter one: Anime otaku

A/N: Yay Gaara! I totally fell in love with Gaara while reading manga number seven today…how you fall in love with a mass murdering demon I do not know but I have. And so I am now writing a fan fiction on our dear, dear Gaara.

Josephine lay on her bed day dreaming about Gaara and Naruto, her two favorite characters from Naruto. Josephine and her three friends Kato, Momo, and Heather are all crazy anime otakus. Of course they all had there reasons for liking the manga and show. For example Heather and Momo's reason was the simple fact that they thought Sasuke was an absolute hotty, while on the other hand Kato thought that Kakashi was the absolute hotty and should have the full show all to him self. While Josephine watched Naruto for a complete and total opposite reason, she watched Naruto because in a way she could relate to certain characters in a way she was Naruto, and Garra mixed together.

Josephine had there personalities in different ways, she was stubborn like Naruto and constantly hyper and then on the other hand she was like Gaara she tried to block people out and had a thing for fighting and for a long time hurting people. Josephine loved to hurt people when she was younger and sometimes had the erg to go on ahead and do it anyway, but something held her back nowadays something that was never there before. An over whelming feeling of self control, a calm respectful side that wasn't there before, this feeling had come along with bible study and Tea kwon do classes. What was it that she felt, what was it that was holding her back from being whom and what she was? Deep in thought Josephine fell asleep peacefully on her bed, having a dream about Naruto and Gaara and going into there world.

Josephine's eyes opened wildly when she felt the warm arm behind her back and under her knees. "Holy Kakashi's!" Josephine screamed when she realized that she was skimming across the ground. But who was holding tightly onto her and why? Josephine felt a sick feeling in her stomach and she tasted a foul taste in her mouth, one she recognized well. It was puke and she was having trouble holding it in her mouth because it was filing fast. Josephine let out the best moaning sound she could to try and get whom ever it was that was holding onto her, attention.

Gaara looked down at the ivory haired girl in his arms as he glided across the land behind his teammates, Temari and Kankuro. "Guys stop." Gaara announced noticing how full Josephine's mouth was. Gaara slowed himself to a stop and then quickly sat Josephine down. Josephine instantly puked on the sandy terrain. When Josephine was done, she looked up at the person she was with. Her eyes widened in shock, disbelief, and joy. "Holy…Gaara!" Josephine squeaked. "This cant be, its not possible." Josephine announced more to herself then to Gaara and his team. "Is she delusional?" Temari asked looking down at the girl. "How the hell am I supposed to know?" Gaara snapped back. "Take it easy Gaara, she wasn't threatening you in any way what so ever." Kankuro said trying to calm Gaara down. "Yeah. Okay. Whatever." Gaara said in a gruff sounding voice., pulling his attention away from his team mates and to the white haired girl. "She has the features of the Kaguya clan." Gaara said more to himself then his team. "Oh you mean the clan with the power of Shikotsumyaku?" Josephine asked. "Yes." Kankuro answered for Gaara. "But that's impossible, there's only one soul survivor from that clan that's still alive, right?" Temari asked.

"That's right, so it cant be possible, must just be a coincidence." Gaara said coldly as he leaned forward to pick the shaky girl that was laying on the ground, up. "Wait!" Josephine squeaked as she sat up. "Where'd you guys find me? And where are we?" "Were at the second exam, were in the forest of death." Gaara said. "Yeah and we found you on a tree branch unconscious." Temari said finishing for Gaara. "Oh." Josephine said with a bewildered look on her face. "my names Joi by the way." Josephine announced (Joi is the closest Japanese name for Josephine possible) "Cool, I'm Temari, this is Kankuro, and that's Gaara." Temari announced as Gaara picked Josephine up in a bride fashion. "Thanks." Josephine whispered into Gaara's ear as he started to run. Of course Gaara didn't answer but it was worth a try on Joi's part.

The ride was very bumpy and the fact that they were jumping from tree limb to tree limb didn't make it any less scary for Joi. She hated heights in fact that was Joi's biggest fear, there was only one person in Joi's life that had ever seen her cry and that person was her friend Momo or Michelle. And the reason Joi was crying in the first place was because of the heights that she had just endured at there summer camp. Momo never did tell anyone of that experience and for that Joi owed her big time, that was her rep on the line, her life. Joi felt the fear shoot through out her body, tears pricked her eyes as they glided on towards the middle of the forest to reach the tower that laid there. Garra looked down at the girl in his arms, she was crying. But why? Why was she crying? "Why are you crying?" Gaara asked in a harsh tone.

"Because I'm scared." Joi whined. "Scared of what exactly?" Gaara asked losing his patients with the girl. "I'm scared of heights, don't make fun of me okay!" Joi whimpered. "You've gotta be kidding me?" Gaara asked. "No I'm not." Joi said through tears as she shoved her face into Gaara's shirt. "What is this feeling? Why do I feel so good when she does that?" Gaara thought to himself his eyes still set on Joi. "Why is she treating me so nicely?" Gaara kept thinking to himself. "Why are you starring at me like that, my fear isn't that childish is it?" Joi asked tears streaming down her cheeks. But of course Gaara ignored her and looked ahead of himself.

A/N: So what do you people think? My first Gaara fan fiction, and my first chapter of this fic. it's a beautiful thing…actually what's even more beautiful is the marathon of Naruto on New years eve from two thirty to eleven. Yes my Naruto otakus its an eight hour marathon and there playing them all in order from the first to the latest one. So yeah I don't know about ya'll but I'm so catching it. And no I do not have white hair I have blond hair just to make that clear, I only made myself have white hair that way I would be more apt to be in the Kaguya clan. Which is a clan that has the power to shift there bones in any way shape or form including the bone density. There power is called Shikotsumyaku, it's a totally awesome power and there almost impossible to beat.
