Days 3.
Gaara bathed beneath the sun sky, and his surroundings were just sand. Far away from the villages, leaving his trail behind from the busy town now he alone around the sand. Embarrassing, he only felt so relaxed when he was around the sand..
After one hour of walking, Gaara arrived at his destination..
'Seem the beast has become docile after team up with fox which the beast hated so much.. "Gaara mocking the tanuki beast.
Awake from his deep slumber, Shukaku emerges from the sand while yawning. "Gaara , what are you doing here?!.. He says lazily.
Good to see you Shukaku..
Hmp!!. Good to see you.. My ass!!. "Shukaku snorted. Spit it out Gaara, do you get yourself in trouble again? and you want my help?..
Do I look like a man that likes to get himself in trouble?.. The red haired boy questioned the beast.
Well, you don't look like it at all… But what is the reason you suddenly came all the way here..
Looking beyond the desert land, Gaara sighed, "No reason, I just want to clear up my mind. And I missed you too.
Gross at Gaara jokes, Shukaku feels wanna throw up when he doesn't..
Laughing at his ex - jinchuuriki, Gaara felt little better spending his time with Shukaku when now they were friends.
Are you better get back before they're gonna come here and make a ruckus, ya know I'd don't want anyone disturbing my peaceful life here.
Yes, I know and I will.. To think you're gonna make me feel better even though we used to hate each other, "Gaara smiled towards Shukaku while it smiled back at Gaara too.
Thank Shukaku, i appreciate it..
Ceh!, tilting it face, Shukaku shy to say anything back.
Walking back to the village seems so hard to Gaara, Sometimes, He thinks if he could have some freedom just one day that would be enough for him. He could do everything he wanted and there would be nobody to complain of it or tell him what he must do.
If God can hear his plea, Gaara wants god to send him a woman and all this problem will go away.. Looking up at the starry night, ' Are there any women that could accept him and love him?..
Continued walking again,
Help me!...
He suddenly stopped as He heard there was a voice in the vast desert. Looking around, He see the dust of sand being swept by the wind.
Anybody,.. Help me!!..
Gaara was shocked when He saw a woman chased by the giant scorpion and ready to eat her.
She just wanted to look at this creature but now it was chasing her , Her feet were hurt like hell running all her might and her voice was hoarse shouting like a mad person asking for help but of course there wouldn't be any person in the desert this late!. She screwed up this time!. Who knew this dessert would be her grave..
Just when she gave up, She saw a glimmer of hope..
A red haired man standing far from her, judging by his appearance he must be a shinobi.. "Hey".. Red haired man.. Help me!! "She yelled to an unknown man..
Gaara, who dumbfounded, was surprised when the woman yelled at him telling him to help her. "Everything is so hectic right now but he brushes his thoughts from now to help that poor woman.
Aaaa.. Everything is over now.. Bye world I miss you when I died "She thought as the scorpion attacked her from behind. She stopped running and closed her eyes.. Bye unknown man you must be guilty because cannot help me right . "She muttered , and accepted her death.
Waiting for the scorpion to strike her, she grip onto her clothes very tightly. Bite her lips but….
Are you okay?..
Quickly open her eyes, She saw the red haired was in front of her now looking at her stoically, slowly she turned her head to her behind and saw the giant scorpion crushed to death . Huh? ". When that curse thing died?. And why this man was already in front of her even though there was a far distance from her.
Did you kill this creature?.. She asks and is being cautious.
Yeah."Gaara replied to avert his gaze from her.
Thank you!!.. "She jumped into Gaara and hugged him. Which made Gaara uncomfortable and his face went blank.
I owe you my life.. Thank you so much.. "She unconsciously tightened the hug until there was no space between them..
His face reddened, by a sudden skinship between him and a woman which he never felt, not even His sister temari, and there a funny sensation he felt on his chest, something soft.
It felt good but that feeling stopped when the women broke the hugs.
Gaara wonders if his face is still in control or in mess with blushing.
Dusting off her clothes, Her looking at Gaara he looked like a child even though he had a stoic expression.. "Once again, thank you for saving me "She lowered her head.
Clearing His throat before talking, "It's okay. "He simply responded. If you were okay now ,I excuse myself.. "
He wondered why today he was so unlucky,.. Dealing with the selfish elders, women and now..
But I feel bad if… ahh!!. Do you want to follow me?.. I will show you something beautiful ".
I cannot do that.. "Without any warning, the women grab Gaara's hand and drag her to follow her.. Wait…
I'm sure this is worth seeing, come up with me.. "She said to Gaara, .
Sabaku no Gaara is now being dragged by someone stranger but doesn't know but he feels comfortable..
Is this a woman God sent to him.. Is his prayer being heard earlier?
Running across the cold night with a starry sky, while holding each other's hands. Unconsciously he let the women take him to someplace her silhouette from behind suddenly piqued Gaara interest.
Who is this woman actually?... "He thought to himself… Running together to an unknown place makes Gaara excited. He feels this kind of feeling but he feels so good. Smile etched on his stoic expression, not that woman will see it because it is now very dark .
