I had always known in my heart that the leaf village was my home. Always. Even when living with the akatsuki I knew in my heart I was a leaf Shenobi and that I was born to protect this beautiful place. A place where the flowers greeted you and trees seemed to love you. Where the mountain side images seemed to smile at you every time you looked up.

I woke up to an unfamiliar place a bland place. Everything was white and gray. Except for a red flower, in a small vase on a table beside the bed I was laying in. white crisp sheets and lumpy pillows.

'arrruggg" I murmured trying to sit up. It was drilled into me to be very aware of very thing. (hence the insane detail) there was a bandage around my upper left arm and shoulder. "ow…" I said as I settled back in the pillows I closed my eyes and tried to think back on what had happened and how long I could have been out. But when I closed my eyes I just saw Itachi's disappointed face I shuddered inwardly I was very glad they didn't catch me. There was also an IV in my arm, and the kunai that was usually in my long hair was sitting next to the flower. This kunai is very special, on my 12'th birthday Sasori and Deidara had given it to me. It has my initials on it. K.H in elegant writing.

"oh! Your awake! Thank the havens above child! You gave us quite a scare!" it was a blond woman with a kind yet fierce face she had in the middle of her forehead a purple diamond?

"how?.. How long was I out?" I asked not afraid of her somehow, comforted by her being there.

"oh you where out for quiet awhile my dear! Almost 4 days now! Now I am Tsunade the 5th Hokage of this village now my dear how old are you?" she asked in a rather gentle tone

I remembered my birthday a little below a week ago and answered "14, Tsunade-sama"

She looked up at me from the papers on her clip bored "hmm" she said thoughtfully

"and your name? is Kreesha Hyuuga?"

"hai ma'am it is." I said sadly knowing that I gad nowhere to go but here.

"do you have family young one?" Tsunade asked

"I do not know, I have a brother however if he is alive or not I do not know." I said remembering Neji-nii-san's face

"his name?" she said gently " Neji Hyuuga ma'am" I replied she smiled at me as she turned away "thank you for the information" she said kindly as she walked out the door.

I sighed and leaned back in my pillows 'what is to become of me?' I wonder 'is there anywhere I belong? Do I deserve to live and serve in this wonderful home? Or should I leave now and find some place else?' I sat up I wasn't going to be weak Itachi-sensie had taught me never to be weak. Yet I would have to wait till I could get these needles out of me. I thought back on the pink haired girl who had helped me. I wonder why she had helped me. Was everyone in the village like that? Could I be like that? I wonder if I shall ever see that girl again. She was so pretty and nice. I sigh 'where will I go? I cant go back to them, the Akatsuki never will go back to them.' The things they did. Just last week they attacked the kazekage of the sand. Nearly killed him is wheat they said but somehow some old lady saved him thank goodness. I liked him liked what he stood for. Garra. Is his name. I smiled as I remembered his face red hair green eyes. Those eyes…. So much pain on a sixteen year olds face. I wish there had been some thing I could have done I tried to stop Deidara and Sasori but they wouldn't listen to me. I sigh I wish I could not remember the sight of the Kazekage falling from the sky. I wish my mind would it go but it wont I don't know why I often think of the boy named Garra but I do. I have only seen him once and never meet him I hope someday I can meet him. That boy with the powerful sand and troubled eyes.

A knock a the door.

I sat up coming out of my thoughts of the sand. A boy of 16 years old walks in my hospital room. He has long brown hair. He wears a white robe and….has Hyuuga eyes.

"Neji!" I cried tears forming in my eyes "Kreesha…." he whispered walking slowly towered me like he couldn't believe I was there. And then he was at me side hugging me tightly to him "we thought we lost you!" he said I clung to my brother my only safety.

"you did" I said my voice muffled by his hair "but I came back" Neji pulled away and stroked my black hair gently "no you came home" he said it was so wonderful to look into Hyuuga eyes again. I knew where I belonged now I was home as long as Neji and Hinata where with me.

I soon left the leaf hospital and lived with Neji and our cousin Hinata I love Hinata to death! They gave me my own room and I could do what I want with it. I never saw uncle much but that was ok. Soon after that I starting training with Anko-sensie she was awesome! Spiky purple hair and attitude. I had two team mates Koname and Shike both my age 14 we did missions and trained and became close. My life continued like this for two years unbothered by the Akatsuki my life was rather peaceful and had meaning. I soon had myself a Leaf Village forehead protector with I wore proudly.

a/n Hey guys i am sorry it took so long as i said i am still trying to figgure this all out well i hope you like it! i think in the next lil chappy she will meet garra! haha yep!
