'What the Hell…'
Disclaimer – Unfortunately, I do not own Naruto, otherwise I would have made Gaara have a king sized bed ;)!
Chapter 10
I Told the Witchdoctor!
"OhthankthegodsabocethatIfoundyouyouhavenoideahowlongI'vebeenlookingforyouwhereisthatboyhe'ssupposedtobelookingafteryouuntilyou'restrongenoughtoprotecthimandifyoudieIwillbeinSO MUCH TROUBLE!"
I blinked once.
Twice.
Then…
"ARRRRRRRRRRRHGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!"
"ARGGHHHHHHH! RAAAAPPPPPPEEEE-mph!"
My scream was cut off abruptly as the crazy pervert slapped a hand over my mouth.
"Gods but you're loud! Now calm down, I won't hurt you. In fact I'm here to heeeeeellllpppp!?"
I blinked. The guy was gone.
"Eh?" I exclaimed. Then heard a whimper, and looked up.
Creepy pervert dude was suspended from the ceiling.
Guess what by?
I turned to the doorway to see an extremely pissed looking Gaara gesturing at the pervert.
I resisted the urge to throw myself into his arms (mainly 'cause I was certain if I did I'd join the guy on the ceiling) and grinned.
"Gaara! You came to rescue me!"
He spared me a bored look that I couldn't quite interpret and turned back to the pervert.
"Gemma!"
I blinked as Kankuro came round the corner, almost crashing into Gaara. "Sorry bro. Gemma, are you okay kid?" He panted.
"Yeah." I smirked. "Was rescued." And pointed to the ceiling. "See?"
Kankuro looked up, blinked, and grinned.
"Wow Gaara, I've never seen you move so fast. Uzumaki's room is on the other side of the hospital after all."
"He was asleep. I was heading back." Gaara replied with a sigh.
There was a sudden commotion as several medics pushed Kankuro and Gaara out of the way, which caused Kankuro to swear, Gaara to glare, and the medics to tremble.
"Gaara, be nice." I scolded. "They probably heard the scream."
"Are you kidding? Everyone in the Fire Country heard that scream!" Kankuro grinned. And raised an eyebrow as Gaara growled and backed away from the terrified medics. "What did you do to him?"
"Huh? What?" I asked, confused.
"Um, hello!? Little help here?" A yell came from the ceiling.
I cocked an eyebrow. "And why should I help a pervert who was trying to rape me?"
"I. Was. NOT. Trying to rape you!" He growled out. Then winced as the sand tightened.
"Don't growl at her." Gaara said calmly. "Or I'll kill you."
"Like hell you will! Drop me you sandy arsed brat! Right now!"
Gaara and I exchanged a look.
"You heard the man, drop him Gaara."
Gaara dropped him.
Hard.
I sighed contentedly and settled back on the bed. "Now, why were you molesting me?"
The medics exchanged looks and started towards me. And quickly stopped when Gaara looked at them.
"Get the Hokage. Now." He said coldly.
"Sir, with all respect and a desire to continue breathing," a medic sighed "we have to examine Miss Aitkin to see what damage, if any has been done."
"The Hokage can do that. Get her."
"We will, but one of us needs to remain here. Regulations state that there need to be at least three shinobi guarding a possible threat."
Gaara glared at the, then glanced at Kankuro.
Kankuro sighed. "Give me five minutes." And disappeared.
Silence ruled for a few minutes…'til I got bored of it.
"What kind of security does this place have anyway?"
"Our shinobi are spread a bit thin at the moment. We're still reeling from the-"
He cut himself off abruptly and glanced at Gaara.
Gaara continued to stare at the pervert on the ground.
"Name." He demanded.
The creepy guy glared at him. "Brat."
"Weird ass name." I sighed. "Do you want that sand back around you?"
He grumbled. "Fine. I am the great Voodoo Duju! Witchdoctor extraordinaire."
"…" I just stared at him, grinned and began whistling 'The Witchdoctor' quietly.
"Oh shut up! Just what I needed! Another Jennifer! Honestly, why can't Those Who Watch ever choose normal polite girls as vessels?"
"Those who watch what?" I asked curiously.
"Tennis." He deadpanned. "What do you think, Jemima Aitkin?"
Gaara turned to me, a hairless brow raised. "Jemima?"
"Do. Not. EVER. Call. Me. That." I snarled out.
And leapt out of bed and over to the witchdoctor. I grabbed his collar and started shaking him.
"Who the hell are you and why do you know my name?!"
"Please-stop-shaking-me!" He gasped out.
"NO!" I growled! "Who the hell are you?"
I felt a hand on my shoulder.
"Gemma, he can't answer if his head has fallen off." Kankuro's voice chuckled beside me.
I growled again, and threw Duju down. "Bastard."
A sigh came from the doorway. "Troublesome." I turned to see a boy with a ponytail turn to the medics. "You can get Lady Tsunade now. I'll keep an eye on them."
The main medic nodded and they left.
Duju groaned and rubbed his neck.
Gaara was smirking.
'Which looks damn hot!'
"You really are just like her." Duju sighed.
"Who?" I asked, annoyed.
"The Phoenix." Duju replied. And stood up, drawing himself up to his full height.
"I am the guardian and guide to the Legendary Vessels, which include the Phoenix, the Unicorn, the Leviathan, the Elf, and the Dragon."
He pointed at me. "You, Gemma Aitkin, are the chosen vessel of the Dragon. A Legendary."
There was silence for a moment.
"EHHHGGGG?"
A.N – Hehehe. He said I was just like her (the Phoenix is me BTW, and the Unicorn is my best friend Susie. We have to stick together 'cause I have a short temper).
Please R&R
