I have too much time on my hands, three chapters in one day… might of well have just made it one giant chapter. Oh well. Please enjoy

Japanese

English

Miranda couldn't believe it... all of that time spent watching Survivor Man had paid off. She had managed to build a half decent shelter and even get a fire going. Although she was covered in dirt and soot, and her hands were bloodied and bruised. Now was the time to seek out the nearest river or pond or something. She needed a bath.

She let silence take hold and listen carefully for the sound of running water.

'Bingo' she caught the sound and immediately headed towards it.

As she got closer and closer to the sound she froze. Water wasn't the only thing she was hearing… she was hearing people! Actual people that speak and think and don't not know how to talk back. Sure, they forest animals were nice, but some conversation would be LOVELY right about now.

'I'm always here for some convo' the other part of her smirked on the inside.

'Shut up me, I was hoping for company, not more of my insane rambles to myself.'

'Well you have hoped in vain little one, for you're right back where you were in the first place; rambling to yourself.'

'I'll deal with you later'

'You mean me.'

'Yeah, SHUT UP ME'

'Tehe, you just told yourself to shut up'

'Better than what I could be telling myself…'

'Don't be so volatile, we have company.'

She was startled to hear a twig snap behind her. She hated it when she was right, now she seemed like some creepy stalker, staring at the river without saying a single word.

"What is your purpose" A low voice startled her from her thoughts, freezing her into her spot. She soon realized something. What the hell was he saying?

"Eh hehehe… no comprende?" she tried what little Spanish she knew, even if it was futile. All she knew was that she needed to know a foreign language, and fast. Just as fast as this situation was going to turn ugly…

Gaara didn't know what she just said, but she sure seemed nervous doing it. Even now she dare not turn around to face her questioner. She looked odd, her facial features not from Konoha or Suna, or from anywhere that he could name for that matter. She looked as unique as her dialogue sounded.

"Do you speak Japanese?" He thought he'd give it a try, maybe the foreign girl knew a little.

"… no comprende?"

She definitely spook no Japanese. Finally she got the nerve to turn around. The girl was tall, but not as tall as him. She looked as if she had been lost in the forest for days. She was covered in dirt and blood. He sighed. She was going to be trouble, he just knew it.

'Well shit' she thought to herself. Only one English phrase would be passing her lips for a long time now.

"God damn the language barrier…"

Well, I'd like to thank my first reviewer for inspiring me to post just a little more tonight, Gaaras1Girl.

Maybe I should combine it all into one big chapter, what do you all think? Well, this is all you'll be getting out of me tonight, I should be passed out on the bed as it is. I think I'm going to play with the "God damn the language barrier" a lot in the next few chapters, it sounds like something fun to use.

Thank you for your time and I hope you enjoyed it at least a little. I apologize for its shortness, seeing as I am falling asleep at the computer, I thought it to be wise to go to bed now, so night everybody ^_^
