Sabaku no Sorano.
Younger sister of the Kazekage, Sabaku no Gaara.
She knew it was probably something she should probably be proud of, what with all the privileges that came with it. Less missions, people's respect, etc.
But sometimes, she just wished she was a normal girl. She got tired of having to help Gaara with paperwork like a secretary, and constantly being nagged by the elders to do speeches for him, seeing as he rarely uttered a word.
But those were petty things. She could deal with that. It was annoying, but tolerable.
However, what wasn't tolerable was the situation she was in currently.
Sorano looked at her three older siblings in shock. They were kidding right? They couldn't possible be serious.
The four sand siblings were having a meeting in the Kazekage's office, Gaara sitting behind his desk and staring at his younger sister intensely, daring her to object to what he'd previously said.
"Gaara, you can't possibly expect me to go through with this, can you?" the blue-haired beauty asked.
Sighing, Gaara sat back in his chair. He knew that she would have a problem with this. What average person wouldn't? Especially someone with the same blood running through their veins as him. The Sand siblings absolutely hated being forced to do anything. So he felt a little guilty for forcing his sister to do this. But he didn't have much choice. His other siblings weren't going to cooperate whatsoever, and the alliance would last longer with her, seeing as she would most likely live longer.
"Sorano, you know your duty to this country is very important. Almost as important as mine. But I can't have Temari do it because she's already getting married in about a year, and Kankuro would simply weaken the alliance and cause war."
Kankuro turned and glared at his younger brother, but the red-head paid no attention to it.
Sighing, Sorano looked at her lap. She understood that it was a big responsibility that he wouldn't entrust to just anyone, but still. It wasn't fair. Looking up at her older brother, she saw him staring at her with both authority and sympathy.
She opened her mouth once more in question, "Well why can't you do it? I mean, you're the Kazekage! Who better to form an alliance with than the Kazekage himself?"
He raised a non-existent brow as if asking whether she was serious or not.
She knew he'd have a reaction like that. Gaara. Married. That was a laugh. Geez, why couldn't Suna have some dumb law like "To continue being Kazakage, you must wed at so-and-so age."
She snorted at the thought. He'd give up being Kazekage in a heart beat.
"Do you find something funny?" Gaara spoke.
Shaking her head, Sorano looked over to her other two siblings for help. Temari looked at her with sympathy also, and Kankuro simply looked down.
Finally giving in, she looked at Gaara once more.
"When do we leave?"
