"Possessed...by Shukaku? H-how?" Temari wondered aloud. Gaara looked at his feet once again, "I dont know how...". He definately wouldnt be goig back to sleep tonight, thats for sure. Temari gently put her hand on her little brothers shoulder "Nothings gong to happen. And if it does, Lee knows how to look after himself" She had a small smile upon her face. Gaara watched as his sister got up & went back inside. "...Lee..." He whispered as he stared at the night sky.

Gaara had no idea how long he was up on the roof for, until the sun peered over the horizon. The entire time he spent on the roof, he thought about Lee. Thankfully, Kazekage work would keep his mind off the troublesome thought. As he went inside, he noticed his sister cooking & his brother almost fast asleep at the kitchen table. Temari smiled "Feeling better Gaara-niisan?" She asked as she continued cooking. Gaara yawned loudly, & ran his hand though his messy hair "Could be better". He sat next to his brother, who was now drooling a mini puddle onto the table.

Temari placed her now finished scrambled eggs onto three seperate plates. She gently handed one to Gaara & smashed Kankuro's plate loudly against the table, causing him to wake up instantly. "W-wha?" He said smartly. Temari rolled her eyes, grabbed her plate & sat with her brothers. They ate silently together, in peace, until Kankuro spoke up "Gaara? Is everything...umm...alright?" He said as he eyed his brother. Gaara, who had been picking at his food with a fork, yawned once again. "I had a bad night..." Gaara replied sourly.

After they finished off their breakfast, Gaara decided to go to his office & work, to get his mind off of Lee. Each time he read & signed a document, he would zone off. Is it even possible that Shukaku could escape to clutches of the evil Akatsuki? Each time he thought of Lee, Shukaku & that dream, he would shake his head to rid himself of the thought of Lee being Shukaku's new container. This went on till lunch time, when Temari knocked on the door. "G...umm...Gaara? May I-I...come i-in..." She stuttered. Gaara continued with his work, & told his sister to come in.

Temari gulped as she quietly shut the door behind her. By now, Gaara was looking at her. Temari was never nervous, why was she now? Temari sighed as she nervously sat on the chair across from her little brother. "What is it Temari? Im quite busy" Gaara grumbled out. Temari fisted her hand & placed it in front of her mouth as she coughed loudly. "I got s-some...bad news...a-a-about L-lee". Gaara paid full attention to her as she said 'bad news' & 'Lee'. "What? What do you mean?" He said it so calmly, but inside he was worried & scared. "ANBU n-ninja's were surveying th-the outskirts...o-of the villiage" She looked at Gaara very seriously "H-he's in hospital, he's in v-very...bad shape, we t-think he's b-been...attacked". Gaara instantly got out of his seat & used is sand to transport to Suna's only hospital, leaving a shell-shock Temari behind...
