"Well sand girl, time to die!!!!!" The mysterious ninja then through a giant shuriken at Temari, but before it hit her Shikamaru jumped in the way. It hit him.
"SHIKAMARU!!!!!!" Temari yelled, and grabbed her fan, "Wind scythe jutsu!" The ninja was instantly blown away.
"AAAAHHHH!!!!! You bitch!" He yelled and ran off.
"Shikamaru, are you ok?" She asked holding him. Her left hand was holding the back of his head while her right was near his gigantic wound. The shuriken was still in him, and boy did it hurt.
"Yeah, don't worry about it." He replied smiling as blood trickled out. He coughed up more blood, and Temari couldn't take it. She couldn't take seeing him like this.
"Don't worry?! You're coughing up blood by the second! I'm getting you out of here." She tried to pull him up, but she was still hurt from fighting. Suddenly a boulder fell from the ceiling. It would break soon.
"It's no use. Get out by yourself. I'll be fine." He tried to get her to leave, but she wouldn't.
"No way I'm leaving you like this!" She tried to reason, but then a big piece of rock fell aiming for them. Temari tried to pick Shikamaru up but failed.
"Temari, go!" He pushed her out of the way just in time as it crushed him.
"SHIKAMARU!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed at the top of her lungs.
"Yo Temari, lets go!" Kankuro just walked in, and didn't know Shikamaru was dead. "Come on hurry! The ceiling is going to crumble!"
"Good bye, Shikamaru." She whispered so Kankuro couldn't hear it. Temari then got up and left with Kankuro. Right when they got out of the cave the whole thing fell. Everything inside was sure to be dead. Even the one who didn't care if Temari was the kazekage's sister. The one who treated her like a friend and not someone you have to bow to when you see her. Heck he didn't give a damn if she was royalty. In his eyes she was a friend, and now he's dead.
"Hey Temari, where's that lazy ass?" Kankuro asked happy the two day mission was over.
"He's gone, Kankuro. Gone forever." She replied and put her head down crying.
"No way." Kankuro said with his mouth open. He only saw Temari cry twice, and those times were all over Gaara.
"Temari..." His eyes narrowed as he felt sorry for Temari. She would always call Shikamaru lazy ass or cry baby or
pineapple head and he would call her troublesome woman, and here she was crying over him. If he was alive he'd
say, "Who's the cry baby now?" and she'd call him lazy ass. But he's not alive. He was five minutes ago, but not
now. He was under a rock dead, and it was because she didn't notice the shuriken coming for her.
"I'm ok. Lets just get back to Konaha quickly." She said turning her head away from Kankuro so he couldn't see her
cry.

"Hey it's Temari and Kankuro!" Kotetsu said as they came into view. "Huh? Where's Shikamaru?" Kotetsu asked
as Temari and Kankuro were about to pass. A tear escaped Temari's eye.
"He's uh... dead." Kankuro answered for Temari since she would start crying again if she answered. Kotetsu and
the other guard looked at them as if they insulted the Hokage.

It only took a week before everyone knew Shikamaru died, and the one to tell Ino and Chouji was Temari. "What do
you mean he's dead?!" Ino asked standing up knocking her chair over. Chouji tried to calm her, but that was
impossible right now.
"He took a hit from a giant shuriken to save me." Temari said looking down mad at herself.
"So he died for you! You li-" Before she could finish Chouji covered her mouth.
"I guess I'll take my leave." Temari got up and left while Ino cried into Chouji over her dead teammate.
"Why'd he have to die? Why?" She kept asking Chouji questions he couldn't answer.
-
"Look Temari I'm sorry about what I said. It wasn't your fault he died." Ino said. She found Temari in her apartment
room crying into her pillow, and it showed. The pillow was soaked in tears. "I just got a little mad. So you're not
suicidal or something right?" Ino asked laughing a little.
Temari chuckled at the joke and said, "Then him saving me would have been for nothing. He wanted me to live even if it cost him his life." She then closed her eyes and frowned. "God damn it!" Temari then punched the wall. Ino gasped. "Why'd he have to leave me like this?!" Temari fell to her knees and cried.
"I guess I should leave." Ino turned around and left. Temari just cried and cried not knowing something was going
to happen soon that will change the village and her life.

Somewhere in Konaha
"How long do you plan to stay secret?"
"About one year."
"She'll be surprised to see you."
"Remember our deal. I'll help you if you keep your end of the bargain."
"Of course. There's no way I'd go back on my word to you."
"Good lets go. I don't want people to see and recognize me."
"Right that would be a problem."
"Ok meet you at the meeting spot."
"Ok bey."
"Bey"
