Chapter 7: Scream
Sakura ran down the stares and to her car. She couldn't handle this anymore. She'd been holding in too much for too long.
She drove to her good friend Ino's house. She ran up to the door and frantically rang the door bell. Ino quickly answered but was shocked when she found Sakura bawling on her doorstep. She invited Sakura in and made them some coffee.
"So what's the matter, Hun?" Ino asked.
Sakura sniffled and replied, "Gaara..."
Ino hugged her friend. "Sakura, remember he's gone."
She squirmed out of Ino's grasp. "No, he's not. He's back. The reason he kills in his sleep... it's a demon! A terrible demon! He takes him over and makes him to awful things... and he's back, Ino. He's back from the dead."
Ino gasped. "Like... a zombie?"
She shook her head. "No, he's completely real. With he same skin. The same touch. And I love him, I do... but he's still killing. And he slapped me and tried to choke me. I have no clue what's going on with him...I just need a break. I need to calm down."
Ino nodded. "Okay, well how about I take you to a spa?"
Sakura smiled a little. "Thatd be nice, thank you."
"Alright, you wait right here, let me just go get my purse."
Ino walked into the room and pulled her cellphone out of her purse. She dialed a number and waited for him to answer.
/"Hello?"/ the voice on the other line was all too familiar, to way too many people.
"Naruto..." Ino whispered.
/"Oh hey Ino, what's going on?"/
"Gaara's back."
/"He's what? How is that possible?"/
"A demon. It brought him back, and he tried to kill last night according to Sakura."
/"Hm...come over tomorrow afternoon and tell me everything."/
"Yes sir."
With that, they hung up, and Ino walked back into the living room to leave with Sakura.
/4 hours later\
Gaara sat hunched over on the couch. 'Why? Why?'
(She asked for it.)
'I love her...'
(Oh yes, she's beautiful.)
'No, not only that but she's perfect in every single way.'
(Psh, bet she's better in bed.)
'Shut up! You know how I feel about her, and you've always reminded me of it. What's with you now?'
(I've been tame for too long, I'm getting impatient. Can't help it, sorry.)
'Well you better help it. I WILL get an exorcism.'
(Psh, yeah...sure. You're too addicted to the power, no matter how little you can handle it. That's the main reason you're beating her. You just need to get a handle on my power, like I'll ever let you though.)
Gaara shakes his head, gets up, and walks back into his room, punching the wall on the way.
