Chapter 2: A Kid, A Demon, and Everything In-between

"Speech"

'Thought`

*Gaara's telepathic speech*

Shakaku's speech

Gaara walked closely to the demon, then he set down the gourd next to a wall nearby. 'Just watch me Shakaku, I'm good without your help. ` He walked deadly close to the demon; instantly, the demon detected him. It flung around, and charged him.

Though the demon charged at him, he kept walking in its direction. He took his scythe and transported it back to the other dimension from whence it came. He grinned in his old evil fashion, and then, started running at the creature himself. But before the creature could react, Gaara was on top of his back. He had ninja techniques beyond just the brute strength of the creature he fought.

"Nehhh, seems as though you weren't worth much to begin with…" Gaara said as he whisked his hand around to one of the many tubes on the things back. "Now, shall we have a little fun? I promise to make the best of it…" As soon as he said that, he ripped the tube right out of the creatures back right side, and then jammed it into the left side. The creature stumbled around, then it tried to shake him off, but he just held on as if it were wind blowing against him.

"Hmmm, I'm getting tired of this, I think I'll just take you out right now…" then he ripped its arm off (the one without the metal). He took the arm and held it out in front of himself, and then he grinned again. The creature turned around and around, spinning in the pain of his bloody stub. Gaara threw the arm to the side and the creature went after it. Gaara merely looked to the side, towards a sleek feminine shadow.

"Shu-ku-fu-ku…" a beautiful voice rang on for miles. Right before the creature reached his arm, he stopped. The voice had reached him first. He immediately began to scream in different pitches. Glass shattered. Animals ran for life, as did the people too. The ground vibrated with waves of tremendous force, knocking, vender's shops and some people, down to the Earth's surface.

"Cheh, who said I needed help, you wretched girl?" he looked to his side again. Her bodied tensed; he definitely had said the wrong thing.

"…" She said nothing and ignored it, and soon brushing it off. She went back to what she was doing before he so rudely interrupted. The girl made quick hand symbols, and summoned up a portal with which to hold the demon. Black encircled jade eyes only watched, waiting for her to mess up. But she never did.

After some several minutes of the demon struggling, she had finally sealed it away. She gasped for air; it took a lot of chakra to summon a portal for something that big. See, in sealing a demon away for good, its not how much power the demon holds, it's how big they are, and some were unexplainable.

"Took you long enough…" Gaara's voice drifted off in the night (yeah, it took that long, *-*).

"WELL YOU WERE NO HELP!!!" the pink haired kunoichi stated plainly, at the top of her lungs of course. "YOU JUST WATCHED!!!"

"Cheh…" Gaara snorted, as he was about to pick up the gourd he had set down earlier, a deep rumbling came from ground behind him. He turned around quickly, to see the girl was gone. At first he thought she might have disappeared before that earthquake.

But an ear-piercing scream said otherwise…

"Stupid girl." And soon Gaara answered to the scream, because no one else would.

*Shukufuku-means 'blessing' in Japanese, and this effects the demons tremendously, its like light vs. dark, but we know who always wins in the end.
