Chapter 7

Aubrey...

Me: Aubrey!

Aubrey: What?

Me: How do you feel about Kankuro?

Aubrey: I think he needs to get a sympathetic pat on the head with a really large hammer...

Me: Wow...That must be love!

Aubrey: What? No!

Me: Yes it is! Aubrey and Kankuro siting in a tree... (Whacked over head with hammer)

Aubrey: God no! I hate him...(Walks off)

Temari: That was brutal...

Gaara: (sigh) Aishachase97 does not own Naruto, but she does own her own ocs.

Me: What happened?

Gaara: You got hit...

"Aubrey! I'm bored..." I complained for the 3rd time in the past hour. Temari and Gaara chuckled as Kankuro groaned and Baki tried to bang his head on a tree.

"I know..." Aubrey said. We continued running in the trees, Baki in the lead. I then thought of a way to keep me entertained.

"Did you know that Baki shoved me into a wall this morning after you guys left?" I asked. Aubrey skidded to a stop. Everyone else did too. Baki turned to glare at me, not sure what I was planning.

"Did you shove her?" Aubrey asked, glancing at him. He visibly shuddered, but he held his head high.

"She was getting on my nerves..."

"That doesn't mean that you shove a little girl!" Aubrey and Temari screamed at him. He was taken aback by them screaming at him. I laughed and patted Baki's shoulder.

"Its ok I forgive him," and after that we started running again. After about an hour I was bored again.

"Are we there yet?" I asked

"No," Baki growled. I waited about two minutes.

"Are we there yet?"

"No..." he glanced at me telling me to be quiet. But I hate that.

"Are we there yet?"

"No!" Baki shouted. I waited about 5 minutes before asking again.

"Are we there..." he hurled around and went to punch me, but he tripped, he fell forward and his hand reached out... and grabbed my boob. I looked at him, and gave the loudest girly scream I could manage.

Aubrey moved so fast no one could have stopped her. She grabbed his hand bending it in the most painful way. He flailed out yelling at her to stop, and she did, after she heard a satisfying 'snap'.

Everyone but me was staring at them, and I was once again quiet. I hugged myself tightly, and thought, "I am forever scarred for life,"

"Taylor, please tell me that you'll be ok?" Temari asked coming over and petting my hair, like I would break. I nodded before just looking forward. Aubrey, Kankuro and Gaara were all glaring, or yelling at Baki before we managed to continue on our way. Baki in the lead, with Kankuro next to him, and the other three surrounded me, making sure that nothing else would happen.

By the time we got to stop for lunch, I was back to normal and playing "I Spy" with Aubrey. This got many laughs from Temari and Kankuro. Gaara would only give amused smiles. Baki wasn't paying attention, which was good because every time he tried to talk to us, they all glared at him.

We were still in the woods but the air was slightly warmer than it had been from the hours previous. Baki stopped in a field and started to pull out random packed foods, fruits and vegetable. Kero and Arashi ran off to find something they could hunt and kill. I picked out a banana. I turned on my I pod and started to play "Barbie girl". Kankuro snorted so hard that the water he was drinking came out his nose. All of us girls started to laugh.

"TURN IT OFF!" he screamed at me. I laughed.

"Whats do you say?" I asked teasing him. His face went red with anger. I laughed even harder as I changed the song to "Shut me up" by Mindless self indulgence. By the chorus Kankuro and Baki were running in circles screaming. That went on until we finished eating and headed off again.

4 ½ HOURS LATER

"Are we there yet?" Kankuro and I asked at the same time. We had planned this for about three minutes, and it worked. Baki stopped and glared at us. His broken wrist fully healed because of his "chakra".

"We will stop here for the night," he growled before running off into the woods. The sun hadn't set yet but I thought that this was a great time to stop. Kero and Arashi started to pull some sticks and branches into a little pile to start a fire. They seemed to like whispering a lot, but I never bugged them, they can do what ever they please. I wasn't there mother.

"I'll go get some water," Aubrey said as she picked up two canteens and headed for a river we had seen a little while ago. I waved her off and started to play a hand game with my thighs. This went on for about 25 minutes, when I started to get bored. I seemed to be easily bored today. Gaara and Kankuro where talking about something while they helped the demons carry fire wood. I headed off to find Aubrey.

She was sitting but the river, and had her arms crossed over her legs, that had been pulled up to her chest. The canteens both filled, lay by a tree that kept them up straight.

"Hey? Aubrey? Are you ok?" I asked, shuffling over too her. She raised her head, and her eyes held unshed tears. She looked so sad at that moment the only thing I could do was hug her.

"No I'am not, I'm in a world I have know clue about, and I miss my family, above all that I think I might have started to get feelings for Kankuro! Kankuro!" she sobbed, tears finally coming out. I rubbed her back and whispered little things to her, telling her that no matter what happened I would always be there for her. When she finally calmed down, I had to ask.

"What made you like Kankuro?" she laughed and pulled away. She looked over at the river, that was slapping us slightly with its water hands.

"He walked in on me the other night looking for the bathroom. He saw me crying and comforted me, or tried to. He wasn't wearing any make up and he was shirtless. Did you know how muscular he is?" she asked. She was blushing slightly and I new that everything was going to be ok.

"Know, I didn't. What color is his hair?" I asked. The sun was starting to set and the water looked liked a crystalized sun.

"Light brown..." she smiled before she mentally slapped herself, then slapped herself with her hand.

"Help me bring these back," she asked handing me a canteen. I smiled and grabbed one, and we began heading back to camp.
