A/N-Okay so, update time. This isn't going how I planed but IDK what to put between what's already happened and what I WANT to happen. So bunches of nonsense in this chappy…maybe. :P Sorry for the lateness.

Gaara POV

I slowly walk into my office to observe the damage. A few sheets of paper float to the floor by my overturned desk. Papers cover the floor from wall to wall and a chair is overturned. Tsunade is resting in my chair, her hands clenched into fists. "That girl is impossible. She's too stubborn, strong-willed, and has that damned fighting will- no matter what!" She mumbles seemingly to herself as I pick up the fallen chair and set it upright. Tsunade looks up and seems a bit surprised that I'm there. "Sorry about the office." She says setting the desk upright and helping me pick up the papers.

"It's nothing." I set y pile of papers on the desk while Tsunade leaves.

Keia POV

I numb my shoulder and pull the sling off. It's almost fully healed and that sling is just a nuisance. I cram it in the first trashcan I can find, and then continue speed walking through Suna. "How could I ever love someone like him? I don't even know him! We don't even get along; he seems to like Rei more than likes me! I can't love him! I could NEVER love him! ARG!" I think storming through the streets. Then, it occurs to me; do I even have a choice in the matter? …probably not. I want to beat Tsunade for picking me to fulfill her 'plan.' "Damn her." I mutter collapsing onto a bench before I close my eyes and try to figure a way out of the plan.

Temari POV
"Why does this have to happen to me?" Keia asks lying on a park bench with her eyes closed.

"…because you have really sucky luck?" I offer. Her eyes pop open and she looks at me.

"How long have you been standing there?"

"About 30 seconds."

"Oh...Ok."

"Let's walk. Tell me what's wrong." I pull her off the bench and she trudges through town beside me.

"Tsunade wants me to marry a guy I could never love just to make the alliance between the villages stronger. I have to find a loophole." She follows me into a restraint and sits down at the table across from me. "I just can't see myself ever loving a guy like him." She states as the waiter walks up.

Keia POV
Temari snorts after I tell her who I'm supposed to marry. "She seriously thinks you two could fall in love?" She asks laughing as I nod my head. "She'd have a better chance of turning the sky lime green." She laughs again as the waiter brings us our food.

"Uh…sure." I mutter before taking my first bite. The truth was, I probably could love him eventually, I just didn't want too. I was possibly even afraid of loving him. I push the thoughts out of my head as I begin to eat.

Amaseiada POV

I had been wandering aimlessly through my villages' streets, thinking about my one true love who had left me, after finding out I was pregnant. I know he's out there, waiting for me to come back. He told me to choose him or the child for he couldn't care for a baby. So, I had little Keiatami, left her at the orphanage, and went and found my Za-kun. He had that boy with him by then. He didn't want his own flesh & blood, instead he took that orphan. After finding him, I went about keeping track of my Keiatami. Now, she's found me, and she hates me. I never should have abandoned her for Za-kun, now I'm all alone. I sit down on a bench and think about how things would've turned out had I become a rouge ninja, and joined Zabuza.

I look up, snapping out of my daydream and see Keia and Temari walking out of the restaurant across the street. She stops when she sees me and I slump onto the bench. "She has her father's will.' I think dejectedly. I close my eyes and hang my head; moments later I hear footsteps fade. Then, I feel a hand on my knee.

Keia POV
I fight the urge to pull back and catch up with Temari as Amasei's head snaps up and her crystal blue eyes meet mine. She barely breathes my name as if she's afraid that if she speaks or moves, I'll disappear. I nod my head once and stare into her eyes a few moments before grabbing her hand and dragging her stumbling along behind me to the now-deserted park. I let go of her hand and sit down on one of the swings. After a few moments she seems to decide I'm not a mirage and sits on the swing next to me. We sway back and forth in a comfortable silence for awhile before I barely whisper, "why?" She says silent so I ask again a bit louder, "why?" She looks over at me startled.

"Why what?" I think a moment before answering her.

"Why did you find me now? Why did you talk to me that day in the forest? Why did you go to Konoha to find me?" Tears start to fall from my eyes as the questions tumble from my mouth without my consent. "Why did you leave me this necklace?" She seems shocked that I wear it as I pull it over my head and hold it out. I jump up and stand in front of her. "Why did you leave me at the orphanage? Why did you willingly give me away to strangers?" I fall to my knees sobbing and glare at her through my tears. "WHY? WHY DIDN'T YOU WANT ME?" I sit on the ground, shaking and sobbing. After a moment I feel Amasei wrap her arms around me and pull me to her chest, stroking my hair and murming soothing words to me. I wrap my arms around her waist and don't even attempt to control my feelings. I let my tears stream from my eyes as my mother-the one I'd never known-held and comforted me.

Kankuro POV
I walk back into my house after dropping off the letter for Rei and Keia. I catch the door before it slams and quietly close it remembering Temari's threat after I let the door slam a few days ago and woke her up while she was napping. I refrain from shivering as I vault over the back of the couch and get comfortable. I look for the remote to get the TV off of the stupid girly show it was on. I mean seriously, who wants to watch some stupid pug and raccoon run around and crap? I spot the remote and change the channel to an action movie. "Change. It. Back." A demon voice rings out from the other side of the room. "NOW."

"Wha-" I squeak turning and seeing Rei curled up in the recliner. "Why?" I challenge her, trying to save my pride.

"I was watching Pocahontas! Change it back!" She demands.

"Why should I?"

"Why...You!!!"She launches herself through the air with a growl and tries to wrestle the remote away from me. "Gimmie it!" She tries prying it from my fingers. I smirk and slider out from under her.

"No."

"Yes."

"Nooo."

"Yesssssss!!" She chases me around the living room until she trips. "Oww!! Stupid floor!" She stands up and brushes herself off before trying a different approach. "Kankurooooo, can I please have the remote back to finish my movie?" She asks innocently, with big puppy-like eyes.

"Oh fine. Just don't ever use your puppy eyes on me again!" I say handing the remote to her.

"YAY!" Thank you Kanky!" She hugs me and quickly takes the remote and sits back down to watch her stupid girly movie. I start up the stairs as she asks, "Are you going to play with your dolls?"

"Yes...no. THEIR PUPPETS!" I quickly jump the last few steps and silently curse her as she laughs.

Tsunade POV


I walk out of the restaurant and wander around outside. Some visit this was turning out to be. I come to make sure Keia's okay and try to drag her back to Konoha and I end up healing her and making her marriage arrangements. 'Damn her for being so strong willed, it'll kill her one of these days.' I walk into my room at the inn and settle down for the night. 'I won't worry myself over this. She'll come around and see the logic of it.' I tell myself, but five minutes later, I'm worrying about it.

Keia POV


-Next Day-

I wake up to the smell of pancakes and coffee. I roll out of bed and notice that I'm still in yesterday's clothes' and an unfamiliar room. I faintly recall falling asleep after talking all night with Amasei. It all made sense now. Except for who my dad was. I mean seriously, Zabuza? Puh-lease. Although that could explain my knack for catching onto water jutsus so quickly. I stop in my tracks. 'So much for meeting him.' I think darkly. I stumble into Amasei's kitchen rubbing my eyes.

"Good morning, did you sleep well?" She asks pouring me a cup of coffee.

"Uh, yea. Breakfast smells good." I take a sip of the coffee and make a face. "Bleh, what is this, tar?" I ask taking the creamer and dumping half the sugar bowl into my cup.

"It's black coffee, I like it like that." She laughs setting the plate of pancakes, syrup, and butter on the table. We eat breakfast in silence, but as soon as I finish Amasei asks an un-nerving question. "Why did you walk with me yesterday and open up to me in the park? It seems weird after hating me for so long."

I look down at my plate and fiddle with my necklace. I feel her eyes on me and start slowly; "Well, when I saw you on that bench, slumped in defeat;" she nods, urging me to continue, "My emotions created a conflict within me. Sympathy eventually won." Looking up at her, I see her slightly smile. I hear screaming from outside then Amasei's door breaks down and Rei charges in, Kankuro and Temari standing behind her gaping.

"You broke her door baka!" Kankuro shouts

"You kidnapped Keiatami! I'm gonna kill you!" Rei screams, charging.

"Bakas." Temari mutters as I step into Rei's path. Trying to skid to a stop to avoid hitting me, she trips and crashes right into me. We rumble across the room until painfully slamming into a wall. I cringe in pain and grab my shoulder as Rei tries to untangle our limbs.

"Owwww. That hurt! Why'd you jump in front of me?"

"Because she didn't kidnap-" I lock my jaw, cringing again before muttering a string of obscenities.

"Keia! Your shoulder! Ohmygawd! Is it okay?" Rei jumps up and leans over me.

"It's fine I'm just cringing to work on my theatrics." I comment sarcastically.

"You shouldn't worry her like that, really." Kankuro says as I realize I'm out of chakra and can't numb my shoulder. Rei shoots Kankuro a dirty look and helps me up.

"Let's get you to the hospital." Temari grabs my left arm as I grimace and follow.

"OH. You were being sarcastic…" Kankuro mumbles looking down.

"Sorry about –hey…where did she go?" Rei asks looking around for Amasei.

"Who cares? Come on." Kankuro grabs Rei's hand and pulls her along with us. 'I can't wait for Tsunade to hear about this.' I think walking into the hospital.
