Chapter 3:The Rescue Part One

Gaara ran towards the screaming, his breathe still shallow. He ran on for what seemed like ages. Then, just over a ridge that showed up out of nowhere, he saw the demons head. The black cap was still on, but for the rest of the body, it was mangled.

"Stupid girl." the demon's throat made a gurgling noise that sounded as if it were trying to laugh. The sound was so horrifying,, it made one nauseated.

"AHHH, HELP ME!!!" Sakura screamed and thrashed around, trying to get loose. She tried to grab a kunai or scroll, but the demon grabbed them and threw them far away. He laughed (gurgled) some more. He suddenly set her down on the cold ground.

"What the.?" she looked around but saw nothing. Soon the demon hit the ground beside her, shaking it like an earthquake. A blur whirled past her, she turned, but saw yet nothing again.

"Hello.?" she looked at the demon, but she couldn't see his face. She moved closer to look. She screamed. The creatures face had been torn off, black blood was splattered everywhere. She backed up in horror, only to back up into him.

"What are you doing here girl?" his voice as evil as ever, but smooth his tongue was, he could talk his way through anything. She stopped as soon as she backed into him, her eyes filled with fear and shock. Sakura tilted her head up to look at him, she stared. His jade eyes looked down on her as all others did, but his were hate filled. They say a person's eyes were the key to their soul. Gaara only stared down at her, his eyes seemed glued to her.

Sakura stilled stared in horror at him. He seemed to not like this, his gaze turned away from her to the creature. When he turned, black blood dotted the whole side of his face. Gaara sighed then turned back away from her by a few feet and walked towards the creature. He brought out his scythe and finished off the demon. He hacked and slashed till the creature's body was mush.

Sakura stood there, still in shock, watching all of this death. She looked a Gaara, his face showed. nothing. Nothing, no emotion, just like Sasuke. cold. But why did he stare at her so long? And why did only he answer the call of her cries? She wanted to know, but was too afraid to ask. She wanted to move, but her legs protested. 'Come on, work!!!' she forced herself to move towards him. Little by little, she inched towards him.

"What are you doing?" he turned to look at her, she was only 8 inches away from him. He stared down at her, she wasn't much smaller than him, but he always looked down on people, cause they always did him that way. All his life, loneliness. Looked down at because he had power none else had, and they had used him. She tugged at his black suite and he came back to reality.

"You should go home." his antisocial ness kicking in. She stared at him, but when he said that, she looked down a little.

"W-why, d-did you." she couldn't finish it, she just couldn't. He looked up at the dark sky.

"Save you.I don't know, I just couldn't see you dead." She whipped her head up and looked at him strangely, but she only saw his neck. He felt her gaze, but only sighed and put his arms behind his head. He started walking off, to where, he didn't know.

"WHY DID YOU SAVE ME???" Sakura blurted out loudly, then she clasped her hands over her mouth. He stopped walking, and was about to turn to her. 'Oh no, what have I done?' she wondered in horror as he turned to her. Jade eyes met bright green.

"I still don't know, but you got an extra room to where I can stay?" his eyes still fixed on her; he avoided the subject on purpose. Sakura was taken back a bit at his question. She looked away when she noticed she was just staring at him, she turned a bit red.

"Sure." she masked a fake smile and led the way back to her house. Gaara walked, not too far and not too close, to her. Sakura could only think of what to say when she got back home with him, especially if her folks were there. She sighed and walked on.
