AN: And here it is... my Prologue to my GaaraxOC fic. It is mandatory for you to read the Epilogue of 'The Silver Kunai' before you read this. It is optional to read the whole thing- though I strongly encourage it since I am having those characters come back into mine and I probably will NOT introduce them again. I may briefly summarize what they look like, but you won't get that real sence that you know what they act like and all that junk.

Please enjoy!

And if you don't read the Epilogue... you'll be VERY confused. Yeah.

oOo

Eyes Like Fire

Prologue: Moonlight

Shizen was deeply confused, "Suna? Nande?" She looked at the grains of sand on her lap that had blown in with the wind. She took some in her hands and felt the roughness of the small grains, 'But I'm nowhere near a beach…or desert. So how…?'

She looked back up at the sky, shrugging the matter off.

'The moon is so pretty tonight. It's almost like the sun, burning like fire- just like my eyes. My mother told me I had burning blue eyes." She blushed.

'That's what okaasan said to me.'

She leaned back on her arms, feeling the soft breeze kiss her on her left cheek, she moved her head up, sighing pleasantly, looking up at the dark, blackish purple sky.

Shizen smiled, 'Tomorrow, I'm going to pick lilies. Tiger lilies- they're my favorite flower. Then okaasan'll put them in a vase and…'

She felt her eyelids become heavy. Shizen fought the urge to shut them.

'She'll put it next to…' Shizen yawned, she felt her body fall back onto the soft grass. Closing her eyelids, she finally gave into the urge of sleep and let it take her away.
