Sora
As I walked around the village I looked up at the Kazekage's office, thinking how long it would take Gaara to finish his meeting. Knowing him he is just as anxious to see me, so he will probably make it quick. But you need some background information. My name is Sora, I am a twin my sister's name is Sori, but this is my story you can hear hers later. My father is Sasori Akasuna, a very powerful ninja; he stashed me in the Village of the Sand to keep me away form ninjas like him. But unfortunately he is no longer alive, I think, and I was alone, or so I thought. I was upset and out during a sand storm when Gaara walked up behind me. He asked if I was alright, I told him no and explained he just pulled me into his arms and let me cry on his shoulder. I must have fallen asleep, I woke up out of the sand in a bed next to Gaara it appeared to be his bed. That's how we met and how he wormed his was into my life and into my heart.
We meet everyday for tea at about noon but he had a meeting so we pushed it back until three. It was three fifteen but I can see him coming through the crowd in a pair of shorts and a muscle shirt, he never wore his Kazekage robes when he met with me he doesn't want me to see him that way. We've been dating for a few months now and he is getting real love-y. It's nice; no one ever is this nice to me except my father and my sister. My sister by the way isn't dead, dad just stashed her in leaf instead of sand so we wouldn't be in danger and draw attention to ourselves. As Gaara sat down the waitress came right over to out table, we ordered our tea and she moved away. Gaara looked back to me; I looked at him and gave him a weak smile,
"Alright, Sora, what is the problem? You've been looking so sad lately. What's wrong, baby?" He took my hand leaning over the table to press a kiss on my knuckles. I just shook my head to tell him nothing was wrong. "Don't give me that little head shake; something is wrong I can see it in your eyes. I'm not going to hurt you or tell you that you are wrong, I just was to know what's wrong." He told me, we finished our tea while he was talking, Gaara paid and we got up to leave.
I was going to go back to my house and work on my weapons when Gaara grabbed my hand and pulled me to his side. I wanted to go home and work on my puppets but he pulled me farther and farther away. He spoke as he walked, "I think I know why you are so sad. You are a twin and you have not been with your twin in a long while. I know if I don't see the people I count as family for a while I am saddened. So that is why we are going to Leaf, I would like to see Temari and I know you want to see Sori, I hear she has gotten along well and is dating a Huyga, Neji, and I think he needs to meet her mean, big sister." He chuckled at the last part.
You're right I miss my sister very much, but we are not supposed to be together very much, we create chaos. That is why our father separated us from the time we were seven." I looked at him.
"Well we can only hope for the best. I don't think they know who you father is or that you are even her sister but we will go all the same." He said.
"The timing couldn't be better, it's our birthday in a couple days, and we will be together for it." I was going to say more but hesitated, and Gaara managed to notice.
"Say what you need to say; it must be important but something that could be damaging if you don't want to tell me, you tell me just about everything." Gaara tilted his head and watched me like a cat with his unblinking eyes.
"Well normally my father and his partner, Deidara, come to see me and Itachi and Hidan get Sori and all of us just go out to dinner or something. Dad is gone but I don't know if the others might come to see us." I looked away from him knowing it shouldn't happen.
"Well we will have to see what happens but if they come to see you they probably won't be there to hurt anyone so that might save someone for the night."He smiled. "Let's go pack to see your sister." With that he led the way to my house. He opened my door and led the way to my room. He pulled to bag out from under my bed and watched as I put in a couple shirts, a pair of pants, a couple scrolls that contained puppets, some poisons, and finally an out fit he had never seen on me.
"I'm ready it's your turn to pack lets go to your house." I grabbed my bag and led the way to his house. It was my turn to watch as he grabbed his stuff. Kankuro came in with papers for him to sign; Gaara just waved him off so he could get ready to leave with me. "Alright let's get going I want to get there as soon as possible." Gaara just smiled and let me lead the way. We went to the gate and I smiled a come get me smile and took off towards the Leaf Village.
About half way there the sun was starting to set so Gaara said it was time to make camp. I just laughed and agreed so we stopped and started a fire. Settling down to make dinner Gaara turned a round like he heard something. "What is it Gaara?" I looked out to try and see what he saw but couldn't.
"I thought I heard someone coming up behind us, but I don't see anyone. I'd tell you to go check it out but I'm enjoying looking at you. We should be fine." He smiled as he told me we would be fine. I just laid out a blanket to sleep on as the fire started to burn down a little. Gaara lay down on the blanket on one side, patting the other side for me to lie down. As I laid down Gaara curled me up next to him wrapping his body around mine and let us both drift off to sleep.
We woke to the sun on our faces and the birds chirping looking closely at on of the birds it was a hand crafted clay bird brought to life and I instantly knew who was watching us last night. As Gaara started to stir I glared at the bird and it moved away. Gaara got up and moved to get ready for us to move again. It wasn't long until we were almost at the village; we slowed down to a walk. We reached the gates only to be greeted by Temari and her boyfriend. She smiled at me and led us into the village.
Well it wasn't long before we heard Sori, she saw me and screamed next thing I knew I was on the ground with my baby, by seven minutes mind you, sister on top of my screaming her head off. I laughed as her boyfriend, Neji, came and pulled her off of me, but when he saw me he had to do a double take. "What the…and who would you be?" He asked as I picked myself off the ground.
"I would be Sora, I am Sori's twin sister, and I'm the older of us only by seven minutes though." I laughed as Sori Glared at me which made me laugh even harder as she pulled me close enough to whisper in my ear.
"It's our birthday tomorrow, you know the boys will be coming to see us, and we aren't supposed to be together without them being with us, we cause chaos." She looked over at our boys Neji looked impatient Gaara just looked amused.
"Well Deidara was watching me with Gaara last night his bird was around this morning. I have no doubt that the boys will be coming to see us tonight." I whispered back laughing when Neji started to growl. "Sorry, Neji, she's my sister. You get to hang out with Gaara, I don't get to see her in nine years but every once a year, she is mine for the next couple of days." I smiled and pulled her away to the hotel Gaara and I would be staying at.
"Are the boys really coming to see us?" She asked out loud as we walked to put my things in the hotel.
I looked around seeing a clay bird land next to a real one on the telephone line. "What do you think," I asked as I pointed up to the bird then I saw another land next to it except this one was a puppet. "Do you see that Sori, do you see that new bird?"
"Yeah I see it he is dead isn't he, he can't still be alive, can he?" She saw the smile on my face spread as I saw how fluid the movements were they were the most fluid a puppet could get.
"Oh yes, I think he can be." I smiled and watched as the birds flew past and dropped a slip of paper into my hands.
Sweethearts
Yes I am still alive, it is your birthday tomorrow and we will be coming to see you. You will be getting gifts so bring a bag we will meet you in the forest at six tomorrow morning
Love you
Daddy
"Well I guess that answers that question. Its late little sister we need to get to bed so we can see our daddy tomorrow. Let's go to bed." I went into my hotel loom which had a big bed big enough for sisters to share. We set out alarm and went to sleep.
We woke to our favorite song to listen to together we quickly got up and left. We were out in the forest within fifteen minutes only to see our father standing there. Just like she attacked me Sori attacked him. All that was heard was a shriek of daddy then someone's laughter. I turned around to see Deidara just looking on laughing as Sori continued to attack dad. I looked at Dei and waved toward Sori, he nodded his head and we both went by them and picked up my little sister one of us each arm. "Alright little sister stop attacking we wont get presents you little terror if you keep this up."
"You will always get your presents I would never keep anything for you especially seeing as it is your sweet 16." Dad said as he came over and kissed the top of my head. He waved his hand toward a clearing where there was a table set up with every one around it looked like a tea party which dad did for me, my favorite movie is Alice and Wonderland. It was fun but Sori went nuts when the presents came out.
Hidan- knives
Konan- Clothes
Deidara- sculptures
Pein- Earrings
` Zetsu- flowers
Kakuzu- money
Itachi- Sun glasses
Kisame- fishes
Daddy- me-poisons Sori- song books
I smiled but this signaled the end of our get together. I looked up to see the others getting up to leave. I sighed as they all, but daddy, disappeared. Sori looked happy and were starting to move away. She went and hugged daddy and started to leave. I looked down but looked up when Sori asked. "Are you coming home, Sora?"
"Yeah I am, I'll be there in a minute." I looked up to see my father staring at me. Sori just said okay and left.
"Sora… it'll be okay with out me. You can survive. You have a good man that will love you, while I'm gone, but I will be paying him a visit and that Neji boy too. I would like them to be brought to me by you and your sister so I can warn them that is they hurt either of my little girls there will be hell to pay." He smiled as he came over and kissed my forehead, "And I expect them this afternoon, I'll still be here." He laughed as my head snapped up and I took off.
I caught up with Sori, "We need to bring our boys back to meet daddy he wants to threaten them, and I mean meet them." She laughed as we raced back to the village. I walked in and saw Gaara with Neji sparring. "Boys! Come with us you have to meet someone." I just smiled when Neji looked confused.
"Who do we get to meet sweetie?" Gaara asked, I just smiled and took him by the hand and started to lead him to the forest. I looked back and saw that Sori had grabbed Neji and was bringing him along as well.
We got to the clearing with no one there, "Daddy?" Sori and I said at the same time.
"Yes," came from behind us the boys jumped and saw our father only a couple feet behind them. "Gaara I believe we've met and you know what I am capable of, but you, you must be Neji, to introduce myself I am Sasori Akasuna, I am Sori's father." Dad smiled as Neji looked at Sori then dad then back to Sori.
"I can see the resemblance, it's nice to meet you Mr. Akasuna, and yes I am Neji Huyga." Neji stuck out his hand to shake dad's making himself vulnerable. Dad took it liking the way Neji would rather place himself in danger than let his love be hurt.
"I brought you boys her for very simple reason. My daughters say it is a threat, but I say it is a warning: If you, either of you were to hurt one of my girls you would have me and all the men like me after you. That is all I have to say." He smiled as he disappeared into the woods.
