Yes yes, BBR65 hasn't disappeared, she's just been very busy! lol here's a Gaara Story for ya'll! I still haven't given up on Diary of Jane though!
Disclaimer: I own nothing of Naruto, only Aiko and anyother person i make up.
The girl ran through the forest, her short black hair came to her chin and angled back so that the longest part was to the back of her neck, while her bangs reached her cheek bones, barely letting her red eyes show through. Her out fit consisted of tight black short shorts, a dark orange tank top, black fishnet gloves that came pass her elbows, and her shoes were boots, that came just under her knees.
Next to her, was another girl, blonde hair into four pig tails, and black eyes, her headband keeping her bangs out of her face. On the other side of that girl, was a boy, clad in all black, purple markings on his face, a hood covering his brown hair and his black eyes looking straight forward. On the side of the other girl, was a boy, red-headed, bluish green eyes, with dark outlines around his eyes, and over his left eye was a red tattoo of the kanji meaning 'love'.
The girl glanced over to the other three, the sand siblings, Temari, the oldest sister, Kankuro, the oldest brother, and Gaara, the youngest of the three. The girl, Aiko, was only the extra girl on the squad, or so she thought. She had been assigned on this team since the academy days, and Kankuro was the only one who 'accepted' her in a way, at least he talked to her.
But that had been months ago, and now she got along with everyone, or was at least on good terms. Temari lighten up after the chounin exams, she started to look out for Aiko, which surprised both of them, but it wasn't long until both girls started to act like best friends. Gaara had been harder to convince, but Aiko knew why, it wasn't hard to understand his predicament. Gaara held the one tailed demon, Shukaku. For that reason, the whole village hated and feared him, so he became a cold ruthless killer, but if it hadn't been for Naruto during the chounin exams, he wouldn't have changed.
Aiko, growing on the outskirts of Suna, had never talked to anyone really, her family was out of country before moving to Suna before Aiko was three. Aiko didn't know her birthplace but treated Suna as her home, since it was the only place she knew as a home. Aiko's parents had been medics for Suna, and expected Aiko to be one as well, but Aiko, although skilled in medicine, valued her kekkei genkai than her medic path.
Aiko had what most called, 'Dragon' eyes when she fought. Her pupils were normal, but when she got in a fight, her pupils would slit, and her canine teeth grew a bit, and a black slash mark appeared under her right eye. She had the easy access of controlling fire, which was a dark purple black color. She was skilled in combining her fire with taijutsu, and highly adapted to long and short ranges, which seemed like the perfect fighter. But she wasn't. Aiko had her limit, when using her maximum strength, it was a wonder if she would last about 15 minutes. With her small stature, it wouldn't surprise most people of her limitation, but it did surprise that she could put of a fight.
Kankuro stopped, causing the other three to stop. "There are three in help." He spoke, looking at the paper. "I'll help the dog boy."
"I'll help that lazy boy, it will be payback to show him what he missed." Temari spoke.
"So then Gaara and I will help the third one, Lee." Aiko spoke, looking at the others before looking at Gaara, "Is that all right if I come?"
Gaara nodded, "Be careful, everyone." He spoke before the two nodded and then took off. Gaara and Aiko took off, heading towards the large area.
"Gaara," Aiko spoke, still keeping watch on where she was going, "Do you want me to strike first?"
"It's up to you, just don't get yourself killed." Gaara said.
Aiko nodded, "I trust you to make sure this enemy doesn't get a cheap shot on me." She said softly, taking Gaara back.
Aiko didn't look over to see Gaara's reaction, she only saw the clearing and the two figures in there. One was clad in a green jumpsuit, a black bowl cut, and black eyes, known as Rock Lee. The other figure was taller, pale skin, green eyes, white hair that came to the back of his neck, and the thing was that he had bones protruding his skin.
The man didn't hesitate to attack Lee, and Gaara, even from the far distance, made sand form a barrier between the two, pushing Lee back gently and even caught him, but the man was forced back.
"Who are you?" The figure, Kimimaru spoke getting up.
"Allies of Leaf, we're shinobi." Aiko spoke, kneeling down next to Lee to make sure he was okay.
"Shinobi of Suna." Gaara finished, standing behind the two, arms crossed.
"Are you okay Lee?" Aiko spoke, she knew that he and Gaara had fought in the preliminary rounds of the chounin exams, and Gaara had done more than enough damage to Lee's arm and leg..
"Yes, I am fine, Aiko, Gaara, you're here to help?" He asked, sitting up on his knees.
"You bet." Aiko spoke, standing up, wiping herself off, then walking forward a bit.
"Aiko!" Lee spoke, "You are not going to fight are you?"
"Let her go," Gaara said, "She's been restless to fight, she's been stressed lately." He spoke that last part under his breath.
