Chapter 4

The next day Gaara was on his way to the hokage office because it seemed that Tsunade did not have the time yesterday to go over treaties , so he figured he would try to today.

He didn't have a very far walk it took only about ten minutes. He was staying in an inn that was actually quite nice he had to admit. It wasn't anything to fancy but not too crappy either. It was comfortable.

He was now at the door of the Hokage's office. He knocked a few times and didn't hear anything. He wondered if he knocked hard enough. Just as he was about to knock again, Tsunade rang out.

"Come in."

He walked in and noticed she was frustrated about something, because she had her eyebrows furrowed and made a displeasing face as she worked on some papers. He coughed a little to get her attention.

"Oh, Kazekage-sama. Please forgive me. You must be her for us to go over those treaties." It was more of a statement than a question but Gaara still nodded in acknowledgement. "Well as I said please forgive me again for having to reschedule but something has come up, it is to my sorrow that Hiashi Hyuuga had a heart attack last night and did not survive. You may not know but he was the leader of the hyuuga clan." Tsunade paused for a moment. It was a lot to explain

After saying that, Gaara was beginning to understand. 'That means Hinata is no longer the heir'

She began again, "This means Hinata Hyuuga is now leader, but I have no regrets she will be fine leader, though it might cause problems if she is to become hokage someday. But I'm pretty sure her she has that figured out. She is a smart kunoichi." There was a short silence once she was done talking, 'til Gaara began to speak.

"I understand, I will just exspand my visit a little longer, if that is alright?" Gaara inwardly smirked thinking of what Konkuro and Temari would say once they got notice. When Gaara was away Temari and Konkuro had to play Kazekage and let's just say they could barely handle it and would practically jump for joy when he would come back.

Tsunade almost forgot to tell Gaara about what she heard about the Akatsuki. She wasn't gonna tell him 'til it was confirmed but since he was going to stay for a little longer it would be in the best interest to warn him.

She sighed as she started talking yet again. She did not have time for this so she was trying to hurry.

"It is alright with me but I must warn you that we've caught word about that the Akatsuki might be planning to attack are village in another attempt for the nine-tailed fox, but nothing is confirmed yet so there isn't really that much to worry about. Plus we always knew that they wanted the nine-tailed fox so we've been prepared for awhile."

It didn't affect Gaara at the least although he was a little bit peeved that Hinata had killed to of the akatsuki members and he wasn't even able to kill one but that wasn't his best night either. He was actually already feeling bad that night and plus he had to keep Shukaku under control the whole time.

He nodded again, his face still in its normal structure, blank, and he began to exit the room. Before he left, though, he turned around and asked,

"Do you know where I might find miss hyuuga?" He knew they were still not on a good terms but he felt he still needed to send his apologies and wish her luck leading now her clan. It was irritating to him that he still felt the need for her not to be mad at him and that stupid feeling he got when he thought of her, which to his disliking …was.. oh I don't know…. All the time!

Tsunade was almost shocked that he would care but then smirked to her self.

"Hinata? I think she is still at the compound. She is pretty busy….but I'm sure she'll have time to see you." She smiled evily at Gaara.

It was hard to tell but Gaara had a light pink tint across his face and he said his good-bye quickly and walked out.
