Rage Alix - Second attempt at making a GaaraXoc Fic. First one obviously wasn't all that interesting to people, seeing as how I got no reviews. Anyways, I hope this is somewhat better, and not based with AU and high schools.

Parings: GaaraXoc. ( some KankuroXoc, NarutoXHin, SasukeXSak, TemariXShika.)

Introduction to Azure's Shinobi's, and mission details

Gray eyes glanced around the dark room that was unfamiliar to her. Long black hair, with blue and red streaks rested on her shoulders and fell down her back, stopping at the back of her knee's. The small female stood at 5'2", and weighed not even 100 pounds. She's very small for her own age of 15. A black spaghetti-strap was covered by another black shirt, but zippered up the front, with a chain connecting from her right shoulder, to where the zipper sat, when done up. On the top of the chain was a key. What it was used for, she didn't know… not yet at least. Big, black baggie shorts - similar to something like army shorts - adorned her legs, with her holstering pack for her kunai's, tied with bandages. Fishnet covered the rest of her legs until her ankles, as she wore the traditional sandals. Red arm wormers were on her arms, with a black ribbon tied on her right wrist.

Her headband was adorned acrossed her neck, hanging loosely, indicating what village she was from, and it was one that hardly anyone knew. Azure - The village of all elements, was a very small village and wasn't known - obviously. There were many skilled Shinobi's and they even had their own ANBU.

She could hear whispers surround her, as her eyes glanced around, before looking at her close friend, MaiAki, who stood there as if nothing was happening, but when she felt her own eyes on her, she smiled softly, to try and ease the pressure off her.

"Ne, Alix? Are you alright?"

"Hai, I'm fine.."

MaiAki looked at her awkwardly, before looking at the people in front of them. MaiAki was a beautiful lady to see, and to stand next to her was really awkward for Alix. She felt inferior to the younger woman, and felt as if she didn't matter to her… Like she was someone who could just toss her away. She may have been really good friends, but she had a lot against her, but kept them to herself.

MaiAki had long blonde hair, with black streaks, which stopped to the middle of her back. Hazel eyes seemed to pierce through anyone once she looked at them. She wore a long sleeved shirt, with random red splotches and cuts in them. It seemed as if it was glued to her. Though it gave the illusion of it being baggy, it was actually skin tight to her, showing the 'goods'. And she wore something similar to Alix's shorts, but they were a grayish color. Kunai holster on her left leg, instead of her right, and red fishnet covered her legs, also wearing the traditional sandals. It was a bad sense of color coordination, but for some odd reason, it looked really good on her. Something Alix knew she couldn't do. Her own headband tied around her forehead.

Alix moved her eyes too look at the male standing next to her. He was a little bit too hyper at the moment, trying so hard not to start screaming at the top of his lungs and start running around in circles just to get rid of energy that was steadily letting itself out. A crazy, hyper-active Shinobi was, once in a while, good to have on a team… until they got annoying.

He wore something similar to Alix, yet, invert black to white, and take away the chains… That's what he looked like. His own hair was short and black, spiked up in the front. His headband was tied around his left arm, kunai holster on his right leg.

"Mike, calm down.." Alix's voice was soft, as if instantly, said energy from the boy seemed to vanish as he looked at her. Red eyes glittering in amusement.

"Can't help it.. Had too much coffee this morning… Just a litt--"

"Mike Shinto, Alix Rage! Pay attention, this is an important mission." A females voice boomed acrossed the room, sending the two into a straight position, looking at them, as if they were in the military.

"Gomen.." The two replied softly.

Alix never really paid attention to a lot in her life, trying to block out some memories that liked to resurface during battles, and when she needed to listen to a new mission, that was dangerous. She sighed softly, slowly moving into a relaxed position as the woman turned around.

"As I was saying. This is a mission to Konoha, then over to Sand, then to Sound. You'll stay hidden and gather information on all three countries, to see which is better to have a good alliance, and trusted ally. You will all stay in the three countries for 3 months. Don't screw this up."

They all nodded.

"Can we make friends?"

Alix and MaiAki looked at Mike, questionably. 'That's a stupid question…' Both thought simultaneously, then sighed softly.

"Yes, I guess you can, just don't blow your cover. They'll think your spies and start interrogating. Now, you can say your from Azure, but you cannot tell them we are located here." The old woman paused, yellow eyes looking at each Shinobi quietly, before landing and stopping on Alix. "Don't get hurt, Alix, and don't hurt anyone else."

Alix flinched at that. She never did hurt people, Unless it was a mission and the only way out, and she never trusted her to be alone… Thought she might burn down her own house just by cooking. She nodded slightly, earning a snort from Mike. She glared at him. "Shut up Mike. Put him under something Taka-baa-chan." But this time, Alix pointed to Mike, who looked completely horrified from the suggestion.

"No… no… nothing.. Alix stop giving her idea's!"

The old woman laughed. "Fine then, Mike. Your not allowed any sweets, or coffee at all on your mission… if I find out you did…." She left her own threat handing, just to watch the teen squirm as thoughts passed through his mind. MaiAki, just laughed, holding her sides.

"Nothing for me. Alright!" She raised her hand into the air, then heard Taka clearing her throat, she thought she was a goner now, and her face visibly paled.

"MaiAki… No bath house, or pocky for you."

Alix started to smirk, then covered her mouth, having to turn around, and try her hardest not to laugh. MaiAki loved her baths, and just loved her pocky. God this was going to be the worst Mission she was going to be sent on.

"Alright, All of you can leave in the morning, dismissed."

MaiAki, then just exploded into a fury of hate, and random curses of her beloved pocky and baths.

"This isn't fair!"

"Stop complaining!"

"Shut up Mike, you know nothing!"

"Make me shut up!"

"No make me shut up!"

"Me!"

"No! Me!"

"Me, me, me, me!"

"Me times infinity!"

"My times infinity, inf--"

"Both of you shut up!" Alix finally stepped in, glaring at the two. Her arms crossed over her chest as she closed her eyes and sighed. "Your more annoying that 2 year olds. God." She scoffed lightly, then vanished in a poof of smoke.
