Hoshi felt the sun on her face, she began to stir when she felt strong arms around her waist. She slightly turned her head and noticed the red hair,

Oh man… what happened?

She got up and held her head, she noticed it starting to throb.

Well this sucks… my first hangover.

Gaara slowly opened his eyes as he felt Hoshi move away from him.

"Morning." said Hoshi.

"Mmm morning, what time is it?"

"Not sure… I just woke up too, where are we?"

"The lady who I assume is the owner of this bar offered us rooms."

"We are still here?"

"Yeah."

"And the others?"

"Well Usagi and Kankuro are in the room next to us, I'm not sure about Midori and Temari."

"Oh… so looking at the expression on your face… you enjoyed last nights little work out?" Hoshi smirked.

Gaara sat up and inched closer to her, he pulled her closer to him giving her a very passionate kiss.

"You have no idea."

They suddenly heard a knock on the door.

"Its me the lady who provided you with the rooms."

Hoshi got up and answered noticing that she no longer had the hangover.

Weird…

She opened the door.

"Don't mean to intrude but if you guys are hungry there is breakfast being served right now."

"No problem, thank you we'll be right out."

The lady left, Hoshi closed the door turning towards Gaara who was standing right in front of her. He began to kiss her again removing the sheet that she had covered herself with to answer the door.

"Eager are we?"

Gaara pressed his body against hers that was against the door, Hoshi had already spread her legs. He plunged himself into her making her groan, he held her arms up above her head as he grounded into her harder and harder. This was a first for Hoshi, she had never had sex before standing up but he did it so well. She was starting to question whether he had been a virgin before. Hoshi came fast making him go faster and faster, she started to bounce now. She didn't know if it was him or the demon inside him making him do this but it felt so good, she wanted to keep going at it till night fall but he soon came ending their little fun well for a couple of seconds that is.

"My my look who suddenly turned out to be so skilled at sex."

Hoshi was still pressed against the door, Gaara was miraculously holding himself and her up. He had buried his face in her breasts.

"I'm sorry, you are just too irresistible I couldn't control myself."

"Careful now… you don't want to get addicted to me."

Gaara gave her another kiss. She looked for her clothes which were everywhere.

"Um are these yours?"

Hoshi held up a pair of ripped purple thongs.

"Ha ha yeah, hey now that I think of it I lost my clothes yesterday. So did Kankuro-"

Another knock was heard at the door.

"Yes?"

"Its me again, um I found your clothes."

Gaara opened the door not realizing that he was naked, he saw that she did have his clothes. The lady looked a bit surprised but just laughed.

"Thank you."

"No problem." said the lady as she walked away.

Hoshi was laughing.

"What's so funny?"

"You were so happy about finding your clothes you answered the door naked… she saw you."

Hoshi fell to the floor and continued laughing, Gaara grew red. He started to get dressed and so did Hoshi, after they were done they tidied up the room a bit and left to go get some breakfast. When they got there they noticed that Temari and Midori were already there drinking some coffee.

"Morning." said Midori.

"Morning." answered both Gaara and Hoshi.

"Where's Kankuro?" asked Gaara.

"I don't know… my guess… he's still with Usagi." answered Temari.

Hoshi and Gaara had smirks on their faces, they sat down and started to eat. About five minutes later Usagi came in skipping happily.

"Good morning." she said as she grabbed an apple.

"Morning." said Temari, Hoshi and Gaara.

"I take it you had a… good sleep?" asked Midori.

"Yeah.. I did, didn't you?"

"Well unfortunately for me I was stuck in the bedroom next to yours."

"SO?"

"I could hear everything you were doing in there!"

"HA HA HA… your just mad because you haven't gotten any."

"Who hasn't gotten any?" asked Kankuro as he came in.

"Midori."

"That could be arranged." he said as he winked at Midori.

Midori and Usagi both exchanged glances and laughed, they all conversed about last nights fun when the lady appeared.

"Ok I don't want to be mean but I must ask you to leave now. My dancers and other employees need their sleep and I can't be taking care of you."

"No problem, if you want we could help out with the dishes." said Midori.

"No no its ok, just once your done leave through the back door."

"Ok." said Gaara.

After they were all finished they left but decided to leave her some money for being so hospitable with them. They all returned to Gaara's home, once inside they helped out clearing the kitchen from all the bottles Temari and Hoshi had drank the night before.

"Well I say we have done enough chores for one day… I'm going to take a nice bath." said Hoshi stretching.

"Doesn't sound like a bad idea… we should all go clean up and see what we'll eat for dinner." said Temari.

"Agreed." said everyone.

Midori and Temari headed to their room, Usagi went with Kankuro to his room and Hoshi went with Gaara. Hoshi went in as Gaara locked his bedroom door, she was heading to the bathroom when she felt strong arms wrap themselves around her waist.

"What do you say we save some water by taking a shower together?" he said gently kissing her neck.

"Hmmm doesn't sound like a bad idea to me." she turned to him kissing him on the lips.

I never imagined my relationship with Gaara would go to this extent, he has grown so much.

Gaara had started to remove his clothing, she did the same. He started to adjust the water, once the water felt just right he returned to her. She was waiting for him patiently with a sweet smile on her face.

"Ready?"

She nodded, he reached for her kissing her, wrapping his arms around her slender figure. She had wrapped her arms around his neck as he guided them to the shower. They stepped in allowing the water to flow down their bodies as they still embraced themselves and kissed. He got them under the flowing water so they would be equally getting wet, his kisses traveled down her jaw line to her neck. He sucked her hard living descent size hickies on her neck, he again turned his attention to her lips. He loved the way how the water added an extra flavor to her sweet skin, he sucked on her lower lip. He bit it making her gasp, he quickly darted his tongue in her mouth . Their tongues met, they wrestled with each other fighting for dominance. Gaara's hand that laid on her hip went down and grabbed her wet ass squeezing it making her arch her back, her chest met with his. Her chest rubbed up against his, his free hand went up her stomach towards her chest. He grabbed her right breast, she moaned in his mouth making him smirk. He massaged her breast tenderly yet rough, she loved the way he played with her chest. Her arms that were wrapped around his neck kept pulling him closer to her, her right hand was entangled in his hair gently playing with his hair. Her other hand would rake his back every once in a while when ever he found her weak spot.

… pant… pant… "Enough games my sweet." said Gaara out of breath.

She just grinned at him as he pinned her to the tile wall of the shower, she shivered from the coldness of the wall making her nipples hard. His smirk got wider, he picked her up placing himself in her perfect v. she saw how his muscles flexed as he picked her up making her lick her lips, she placed her hands on his shoulders. He entered her making her gasp, her grip on him tightened.

"You like it don't you? Me being inside of you… I craved and dreamt of this."

Ha ha "What? Of getting a girl into the shower with you and have sex with her?"

He had placed his head between her breast, when he heard this he shucked his head.

"Not just anyone… only with you."

She was about to say something but wasn't given the chance as he thrust into her.

"… Oh.. Gaara!"

No rest… no interruptions… he finally had her again in his life. He wasn't about to give her up or let her walk out of his life again, the first time she left it pained him. He couldn't sleep well he never could but it was hell to him, she was always on his mind. But now he had her and he was happy that she was his first.

He had started to thrust into her more, her breast were starting to bounce as he speed up. Her mind was blank as he kept hitting her spot, his thrust were hard and fast. She loved the way how he rammed into her.

"Ga…aara!"

He started to grunt as his pace went faster, he was sort of puzzled as to where all his energy was coming from but he didn't mind. He wanted to be just with her and give her full pleasure, he wrapped both her legs around his waist making her spread wider. She gasped as he fully entered her, he grabbed both her hands that were on his shoulders and pinned them above her head. His thrust were coming in hard and fast, he was kissing her as he did this. She would suck and bite his lower lip making him moan. A few more thrust would do it, he felt her almost cumming. Her walls tightening,

"Gaara!" she screamed

She had released, his thrust came a lot faster and harder as her walls tightened around him. Suddenly Gaara removed her legs from his waist and released the grip he had oh her hands, he then changed positions. Hoshi was confused, she was giving him her back he started to bend her over and he entered her again.

"OH GOD!"

His hands gripped her waist roughly as he started to ram into her. This new position brought whole new sensations, as she bend lower her legs spread wider and she could feel him fully now and to make this new experience even more special, he suddenly grabbed the back of her knees and lifted her up. Her legs were spread even more as he kept on thrusting into her.

"Ga… ara! I… can't"

She felt herself coming again, she was too busy liking this new position that she didn't hear the water being turned off or felt Gaara started to retreat from the bathroom into the bedroom until she felt the cold breeze. She opened her eyes and felt the bed as she was thrown onto it, she was still wet but that didn't matter. She felt Gaara ramming into her as she was now on all fours, he kept hitting her spot. She was about to come when he changed the position again,

This kid… his too much.

This time he had thrown her right leg over his shoulder and her left leg was in between his legs… he started to scissor her. She just didn't know what to do anymore.

"Fuck… Hoshi your so tight!"

Gaara was bound to get tired but he didn't show any signs of it, just when Hoshi was about to come again. She let her walls tighten around him and she added more pressure by clenching her inner muscles, this drove Gaara off. So she quickly used this opportunity to turn the tables, she flipped him on his back and straddled him. She began her rhythm slow, she saw how Gaara was trying to thrust into her but she held him in his place,

"Oh no Gaara… its my turn now." she said with a sneaky grin on her face.

She started to go a bit faster moving her hips up and down, Gaara had a firm grip on her hips but would occasionally play with her chest. She went faster and harder, Gaara too thrusted into her making the ride more exciting. He then sat up making her fall backwards, he gripped her waist again and thrusted into her hard and fast. She arched her back as she came and surprisingly brought him along with her. He collapsed on top of her.

"Finally, I thought you would never come." she said.

"You made it a little hard not to. Especially with you clenching your muscles like that."

"You like?"

"Very… I love you."

"… *smile* I love you too… my little ginger."

They fell asleep for a while, Usagi and Midori had woken up a little earlier than everybody else. They decided to go get some fresh air.

"So Hoshi and Gaara huh?" said Usagi.

"Yeah who would have thought." said Midori.

"Hey isn't Hoshi's birthday coming soon?"

"Why yes it is, in like a week right?"

"Yeah."

"We should do something for the old fart ha ha."

"Ha ha yeah."

Hoshi was still asleep when Gaara woke up and decided to take a shower. He headed to the shower leaving a sleeping Hoshi by herself.

The light gently hit her face as the gentle breeze moved the branches from the tree that she laid under. As she opened her eyes all was a blur.

"Where am I?"

"You're in our world my dear."

She quickly sat up and looked around seeing no one.

"Who-"

"It is I -"

"I…?"

She wasn't able to hear the name, she looked around but still no one was in sight.

"I'm your past life."

"My past life?"

"Yes."

"What's going on?"

"The time has come Hoshi."

"The time for what?"

The voice quickly disappeared.

Hoshi sat up, she noticed that her breathing was hard. She was sweating and her heart was beating twice has hard

"What?"

She looked around and didn't see Gaara anywhere but as soon as she heard the water running coming from the bathroom she knew where he was. She got up and put her regular clothes on and headed outside. She needed to clear her head.

"So you think she would like that?" said Midori in a whispered tone.

"Yeah… shhhh shhh she's coming." said Usagi.

Hoshi appeared in the backyard of Gaara's house where Midori and Usagi was.

"Hey you!" said Usagi.

"Hey Hoshi." said Midori.

"Hey." answered Hoshi.

"What's the matter? Gaara was too much for you?" asked Usagi teasingly.

"USAGI!" complained Midori.

Hoshi just stared at her two sisters and started to laugh, Usagi and Midori looked at each other and they too started to laugh.

"Ok ok what's so funny?" asked Usagi.

"I don't know." said Midori.

"Lets just forget about it, so what are you two discussing this early in the morning?" asked Hoshi.

"Nothing much just…"

Usagi was going to say reminisce but that brought up Hidan, how she missed him so much.

"Usagi?"

"Your thinking about Hidan aren't you?"

Usagi looked up at Hoshi and nodded her head.

"It's been three days since the incident."

"I know you miss him Usagi, your not the only one."

"Its just… I finally found someone I connected with and he… was taken from me."

"Usagi…"

Right then Hoshi got a sudden chill, she recollected everything that had happened in the past months.

"Hoshi?" both Usagi and Midori looked worriedly at her.

Hoshi now knew what was going on.

"Those bastards… they tricked us. Why didn't I see this… oh they are so going to pay."

"Hoshi?" asked Midori.

"What is it woman? Speak!" urged Usagi.

"Don't you see it?"

"See what?" asked Usagi.

"Hidan is immortal, Itachi was way to strong along with the rest of the Akatsuki, those assholes faked it! They faked everything!"

"What?" asked Midori shocked.

"They faked their own deaths!" cried Hoshi.

"STOP IT!" cried Usagi.

Hoshi and Midori looked at her.

"It doesn't make any sense! I know you miss Itachi too and the whole thing with your family has probably affected your judgment but it hasn't to me. They are dead Hoshi and they will never come back, I've seen into the future I don't see them anywhere. I've even tried to pick up on their essence… just please let it go." said Usagi almost in tears.

Kankuro and Temari were coming outside so Hoshi quickly changed the subject.

"Until we finish what we came here to do we shall leave-"

"Leave? Why?" asked Temari.

"That's just the way it works for us Temari. We learn as much as we can and once we are done we head to the next village." explained Midori.

"Well what if we don't want you to leave?" said Kankuro looking at Usagi.

"There's no way we can stay." said Usagi.

"Its our way of living, our staying here might throw off the balance. Maybe once we are done we can come back, if it is permitted."

"Permitted?" asked Temari.

"We go by our instincts, we go where ever it drives us to." explained Midori.

"So if these instincts told you to go to the enemies base would you?" asked Kankuro a little mad.

"Yes." answered Usagi flatly.

They all stopped talking once Gaara appeared.

"What's going on?"

Temari and Kankuro were about to answer when Usagi blurted out.

"HOSHI'S BIRTHDAY IS COMING!"

Hoshi turned to Usagi with wide eyes along with everyone else. Gaara looked at Hoshi and a smile grew on his face.

"Is this true?"

"…Yes." responded Hoshi.

"Temari, Kankuro we have things to attend to. Ladies please feel free to do as you wish. I understand that you need to check out our way of living. I shall provide you with what you need after we are done." said Gaara.

"Understood." said Usagi.

Gaara, Temari and Kankuro left.

"Oh he's going to be a good Kazekage." said Usagi.

"What?" both Midori and Hoshi said.

"Yeah, I've seen his future… well what it lets me see though."

*One week later…

Hoshi, Usagi and Midori had been taking lesson in the poison control field. The sun was setting, they were heading back to Gaara's house.

"Well Hoshi you're 20 now, how's it feel like?" asked Usagi who was a year younger than Midori and Hoshi.

"I feel no different from yesterday Usagi, its just a day that celebrates your birth. I think you should ask me that question like 5 to 10 years from now, then I shall have an answer for you." answered Hoshi.

"Well said Hoshi, hey since we are done for the day. What you say we hit the club to have a short celebration?" asked Midori.

"Yeah! That sounds like a grand idea!" cried Usagi.

"Hmmm let us just get to Gaara's and clean up ok, every time I go out and go back to Gaara's house I feel like I didn't even take a shower. Its so hot!" complained Hoshi.

"Yeah I hear you." said Midori.

"By the way, has Gaara… given you your birthday gift yet?" asked Usagi with a grin on her face.

"Usagi!" cried Midori.

"Its ok Midori, come to think of it I didn't see him at all this whole day. When I woke up he was gone, he probably had some business to attend to." said Hoshi.

"You know what I don't recall seeing Temari or Kankuro the whole day either." said Midori.

By this time they had reached Gaara's home, Hoshi was slowly opening the door when she got a chill up her spine.

"What is it Hoshi?" asked Usagi.

"Nothing, I just got a sudden chill." said Hoshi.

They entered the house which was dark and seemed like no one was home. The three entered the house and started to take off their shoes, Hoshi was the first to finish.

"I'm going to go get freshened up, I wont take long." said Hoshi.

"Don't worry we are too." said Midori.

Hoshi had made her way to the kitchen when all of a sudden the lights when on and a very loud 'Surprise!' was yelled out. Hoshi was caught of guard so she sort of yelped making Usagi and Midori run to her aid.

"Hoshi are you… what is going on?" asked Midori as she looked at the three who had caused her sister to yelp.

"It's a surprise birthday party for Hoshi." answered Gaara.

"Yeah, we've been planning it for a week. Hope you like it Hoshi." said Temari.

"Yeah Happy Birthday Hoshi." said Kankuro.

"Wow thanks you guys, I never thought someone would be this nice to do something like this for me." said Hoshi.

"Yeah we were going to take her clubbing." said Midori.

"Well we should go clubbing, after we open the presents and cut the cake." said Gaara.

He was going to turn to Hoshi when he found her just standing there emotionless.

"Hoshi what's wrong?" asked Midori.

"I… can't…. move."

Was all she was able to say when a beam of light came down from the sky and illuminated her, the sky had clouded up and wind started to pick up. Villagers ran into their house thinking it was a sandstorm. Hoshi was still being illuminated by the light, her hair slowly flapped around her. Her eyes were glowing a pale yellow color.

"HOSHI!" cried Gaara trying to get to her but as he was about to reach out to her the light became brighter temporary blinding them. When they came too they saw that Hoshi was gone,

"Hoshi!" cried both Midori and Usagi.

Gaara looked around along with Temari and Kankuro.

"What the hell was that?" asked Kankuro.

"I don't know but it took Hoshi." said Gaara worried.

"Guys." said Temari as she looked outside the window.

All five of them went to the window and saw the dark clouds over the village and the wind that was picking up.

"Who ever is doing this took Hoshi, we have to get her back." said Gaara.

"How?" asked Midori.

"Can't you sense her Midori?" asked Usagi.

"No I can't pick up her essence anywhere." said Midori a little scared.

Usagi closed her eyes trying to pick up her mind but nothing, no sign of her anywhere.

"Its as if she has disappeared from the face of the earth." said Usagi in a whisper.

"I can't feel her connection to us like I usually do, Usagi I'm scared." cried Midori.

"I don't understand she wasn't mad or anything, what could have caused this?" asked Usagi.

Temari had left outside to check the weather,

"GUYS!"

Usagi, Midori, Kankuro and Gaara all went to the backyard. They found Temari standing in the middle of the backyard but the weird thing about it was that there was grass instead of dirt. There was three trees as well.

"What the hell?" asked Kankuro

The three trees were huge, Midori approached them and touched them. She felt a sort of life form that was different from the regular trees, it was as big and tall as a redwood. The trees were placed all close together making a triangle.

"Guys these aren't regular tress."

"No shit Midori." said Usagi.

When Midori started to circle the tree inspecting it.

"USAGI!"

The others joined her and were all shocked by the what was displayed right in front of them. Inside the bark laid Hoshi.

"HOSHI!" cried Gaara as he went to her aid.

He banged on the crystal type barrier that prevented him from getting to her. The bark looked like it was carved out and gave enough space for two people but only Hoshi laid inside, they could see her though. The crystal wall would allow them to see her perfectly, but the thing that bugged them was that she wasn't just asleep. The container had liquid, questioning them whether she was alive or dead.

"Guys is she?"

"No Temari, she just seems to be asleep." answered Usagi.

And in deed she was, she couldn't hear what was going on outside or see. She was in a deep slumber, she was sort of frozen. She didn't need oxygen or anything of that matter, she was just asleep.

*Elsewhere

"Hoshi."

"Where am I?"

"Come to us my dear Hoshi."

"What?"

She laid on the grass surrounded by redwood trees, she sat up and rubbed her eyes. She looked around but couldn't recognize where she was. She slowly stood up and headed to the path the trees had made out for her leading her to a meadow, there she noticed a cherry blossom tree and three boulders.

"Where am I?"

"You're in our world Hoshi."

"Your world?"

"Yes, the world of the great nomads, where everything is perfectly balanced and at peace."

"Some world you live in." Hoshi said looking around.

There was a sudden wind making the pedals of the flowers fall, then the pedals started to form three mini tornados and suddenly they appeared. The three most beautiful beings she had ever seen, they all wore white kimonos with different distinct designs in them. They too wore gold crowns that had beads and jewels hang from them adorning their long hair. The first had red flowers and a gold dragon on her kimono, her hair long and black. Her skin white and her eyes… her eyes were a beautiful ruby color. The second that was in the middle had blue flowers with a silver koi fish, her hair black as well but hers was up to her neck. White skin and blue eyes. The third had green flowers on her and a green frog, her hair reached mid back and was black. White skin and green eyes.

"We are so glad to finally meet you Hoshi." said the one with the dragon.

"We have been looking forward to your arrival for quite some time." said the one with the frog.

"Do you know who we are?" asked the one with the koi fish.

"Um…. Goddesses?"

"Not quite but close enough."

"We are your past lives."

"Well one of us is."

"Wow wow you mean to tell me that one of you represents my past life? Which one of you is it?"

"Can't you tell?"

Hoshi knew who it was, right since the beginning she knew who she was.

"My name is Hoshiko." said the one with the red.

"I am Tsukiko." said the one with the blue.

"And I'm Moriko." said the one with green.

"And we represent you, Usagi's and Midori's past lives." said Hoshiko.

"So how come they aren't here?"

"Because you were the one to descend upon the earth first Hoshi." said Moriko.

"So correct me if I'm wrong, Hoshiko represents me. Tsukiko represents Usagi and Moriko represents Midori right?"

"That is correct." answered Tsukiko.

"So when are they coming?"

"When their times comes." answered Hoshiko.
