This is my first time writing in a while so please review :)

Her ankle buckled as she hit the hard, rocky ground. She fell to her knees and her palms slammed into the ground as she opened her eyes.

'Where am I?' she thought, dazed by the impact. She saw the Medical pack on the ground under her and felt the sandy texture beneath her hands. Her head whipped up as she heard a groan not too far off, without thinking she scrambled towards the noise taking the pack with her. She didn't have to go far before she found the source of the noise; a teenage boy lay on the stone barely conscious. He raised his eyes to acknowledge her and his muscles tensed as if to defend himself.

"Don't come any closer?" came the hoarse whisper, "who are you?" The boys hand inched closer to a pouch by his side.

"My name is Samantha Robertson" or at least that is what was supposed to come out but it was actually "Watashinonamaeha samansa· robātosondesu." Sam stopped and looked confused, but the boy seemed to understand as his hand stopped moving and his body seemed to relax a little.

"I am speaking Japanese?" Sam muttered, "Why the fuck am I speaking Japanese?" She repeated, this time louder. She dropped to her knees by the boy, now really taking in who he was. The red hair, the big dark circles around his eyes and the blood, so much blood. Her eyes widened, this was impossible.

"Gaara? Kazekage Gaara? Impossible, impossible" Sam's breathing and heart rate began to quicken as her head shot up and she took in the landscape around her, the bodies of the dead, the soon to be deceased and, closest to her, the rest of the five kage.

"No, NO! You aren't real, you aren't real" Sam screamed, pointing at the boy in front of her before her voice cracked and she continued in a whisper, "You aren't real". It was then that the panic consumed her, her breathing rate spiked and she felt woozy until a weak blood stained hand touched her knee and she heard the words 'breath Samansa-san.'

Ten minutes later, breathing calmer and panic pushed aside for the moment Sam looked up and began to feel stupid. Here she was being calmed down from a panic attack by a man on deaths door. She looked down at the pack in her hands and undid the zip, just the basics, some bandages, pain killers, disinfectant and some sterile thread and needles.

"There isn't much here and I am no doctor, but it seems it is all we have" Said Sam, "would you trust me to help you out right now, Gaara…-sama?"

"I wouldn't be able to stop you either way, Samansa-san" Gaara croaked. He moved his limbs as much as he could so that Sam could get to his wounds.

"Ok, let's do this" Garra's only reply was a slight head jerk, after that Sam set about sloppily stemming the bleeding and disinfecting his wounds. When she was about half way through the Kazekage stopped her.

"I have the strength to move now" He said, "Help me over there and tend to the other Kage, Start with Tsunade-sama, she is a medical ninja." Sam opened her mouth to complain but was met with a stern look from the partially healed ninja. At this she helps him up and they begin to slowly stumble towards the Hokage.

Once there Sam placed Gaara down so that he was sitting against a rock in full view of her as well as the carnage around him. His eyes seemed to glass over at the sight and Sam, deciding to give him some privacy, began to tend to the Hokage's wounds.

When Gaara could no longer look at the battlefield before him he turned his attention to Sam. She couldn't have been more than eighteen, had dark brown hair and was wearing dungarees and a t-shirt.

"Samansa-san" Sam looked up at the Kazekage's words, "you aren't wearing any shoes." Sam wiggled her toes at the strange observation.

"No, I guess I'm not" She replied, in a matter of fact tone, "I was inside before I was here."

"If it is ok with you can I know where you were before you were here?" Gaara asked, "I saw you just appear out of thin air." At this Sam went back to Tsunade pretending to be focused to a particularly nasty looking cut on her arm. Taking this as the dismissal it was Gaara just watched as Sam silently worked her way through the Hokage's long list of injuries.

"I was at home, sat on my sofa reading manga online" Sam Said after a while, "Then I was here, inside the very thing I was reading." Gaara's eyes widened, what Sam was saying was impossible but she didn't sound like she was lying.

"How is that even possible, are you telling me that I am just some fictional character?" The Kazekage exclaimed.

"I don't even know any more" said Sam, looking Gaara in the eye. Just as the Kazekage opened his mouth to reply Tsunade began to stir.

Tsunade opened her eyes to an unfamiliar face and immediately tensed for battle before realising that she didn't have the physical capability to fight at the moment. Looking to her right she saw the Kazekage leaned against a rock.

"Who are you?" she croaked, confused at how Gaara seem not to be bothered by the intruder.

"She is a friend Hokage-sama" Gaara replied, "Can you please instruct her on how to tend to the other Kage." Trusting the young Kazekage, Tsunade asked Sam to go to each of the other Kage and then report their wounds back to Tsunade herself and Sam quickly rushed off to do so.

"Who is she?" Tsunade repeated when Sam was out of earshot.

"I have yet to work that out myself" Replied Gaara.

That's it for chapter one
