Chapter Five: Kankurou's Pain
Yawn. Kyu dragged herself down the hall with Rynn. They had just had the rude awakening of the century from Kiba, who felt it necessary to come in and make sure, once again, that Rynn was in fact going out with Gaara, and possibly sleeping with him. Yawn.
"I hate having so many brothers," Rynn grumbled, sitting down at the tables and laying her head on her arms.
"Temari has the same amount as you do, and she isn't suffering," Kyu pointed out, repeating the action.
"Yeah, but there's three of us and three of them when we're there."
"Yeah, and here, we have four girls and three guys, we're dominant," Rynn's older sister, Neera, pointed out, giving both of them a plate of eggs and fried rice. (A/N: I actually ate this stuff once... it's very good for breakfast.)
"Since when did you guys become sexists?" Kiba asked, sitting down as well.
"Since you woke us up," Rynn snapped, blindly eating her breakfast. Glancing at Kyu, who had her phone at her ear, she mumbled, "There is no chance they'll be awake right now. Gaara respects their rights to five hours of sleep in the morning."
"Yeah..." Kyu pocketed her phone again.
Sand
Kankurou frowned slightly, looking at the scroll one of the elders had given him. It contained the seal for the Shukaku, but it was very complicated. The traitorous elder had been right; they needed a massive amount of chakra in order to complete the procedure.
Voicing his problem to Temari, she had a few ideas. "If we took a little bit of chakra from each of the ninjas, we could probably gather enough to perform it."
"Yeah, to perform it, but the scroll says most of the chakra is used to silence the Shukaku so it won't interfere. Sort of like a cage." Kankurou shook his head. "We can't take too much from the villagers."
"Maybe we should wait until Kyu, Rynn and Shika come back, and have them bring some ninjas with them?" Temari suggested.
Kankurou shook his head again. "Gaara wants the procedure to be completed by the time they get back."
"But it can't be helped, we need more ninjas!"
"Temari, listen," Kankurou said, serious. "He didn't ask us for anything concerning the seal except that he get to see the three of them and be able to be just him."
Gaara peeked over the railing bordering the stairs overlooking the living room, where Kankurou and Temari were talking.
"If that's all he wants, I'll make sure he gets it, even if I have to give all my chakra," Kankurou said stubbornly. "I've never really been the best big brother for him, and I want to make it up to him."
Gaara's eyes widened slightly. Kankurou...
"But, Kankurou, you know he's not the best ninja without his sand. If we seal the Shukaku, he won't have the sand anymore, and some of the neighboring villages might want revenge."
"I know... There's a way to seal the Shukaku and keep it's powers, but that takes even more chakra." Kankurou unrolled the scroll some more and showed her. "This whole thing just has dead ends..."
Temari's eyes widened. "Naruto!"
Gaara's eyes widened, as well. Naruto!
Kankurou's eyes widened, as well. "Who's Naruto?"
"Loud kid, blond, you called him a brat and wanted to kill him," Temari supplied.
"He doesn't have enough chakra to do something like this!"
Temari smirked.
Flashback"Kuchiyose No Jutsu!"
End Flashback"No." Temari shook her head. "He's strong."
"How strong?" Kankurou raised an eyebrow.
"You remember."
Flashback"That's enough...Stop it."
'This is the first time I've seen him this exhausted...' "I understand."
"Temari... Kankurou... Sorry."
!!
"It's... It's nothing..."
End FlashbackKankurou smirked, as well. "Looks like Gaara requests a visit from Naruto, ne?"
Temari grinned, as well.
And Gaara, cast in shadows, felt his face split into a grin.
Uzumaki Naruto...
Konoha
Ring. Ring.
"Hello?" Rynn answered the phone.
"Hey, Rynn, it's Temari!"
"Hey, Temari!"
"Does your brother have Uzumaki Naruto's phone number?"
"Which one?"
"The loud one."
"No, which brother."
"The loud one."
"No, which—"
"Kiba!"
"Oh! I'll ask him."
Sand
Temari rolled her eyes.
"Hello?" said a brassy voice.
"Is this Kiba?"
"Who's this?"
"The Undertaker," Kankurou answered, taking the phone from Temari. "Do you have Uzumaki Naruto's phone number?"
"Yes."
"Ok."
...
"Did you want it?"
...
"Duh!" both Sand siblings shouted.
"Oh, ok." There was a rustle of paper.
The next day, Sand village
"Wow..." Naruto starred up at the buildings of sand above him. "This is huge!"
Round-roofed houses peeked over the tall walls. Naruto could see cables stretching from one to the other; some had teenagers like him walking across them. In the distance, he saw a huge temple, even over the gates.
His Sand-nin escort shrugged as the huge gates opened, parting to reveal a red-haired ninja.
"Gaara!" Naruto cried, running forward. "What's up, man?"
"Naruto." Gaara gave him a bit of a smile. "Kankurou let me come greet you." Dismissing the escort with a wave of his hand, Gaara led Naruto into the village.
"This place is awesome!" Naruto awed, looking around. Stores lined the streets, with houses above them. Children ran around in the streets, playing, laughing and shouting. Shop-owners yelled, and shoppers bargained. It was an amazing bustle of activity.
"I suppose. The temple is this way." Gaara gestured down the street before them.
"Well, duh." Naruto eyeballed the huge temple peeking out over the tops of the houses.
The Temple
Naruto shifted slightly in his kneeling positions. Sitting like this is killing me... "Where is he, already?!" he shouted at the elders, who had assembled before him.
"Kazekage-sama will arrive in his own good time!" rebuked one of them.
Gaara smirked next to Naruto.
"It's alright, I don't mind," said an airy voice behind them.
"Kazekage-sama! Temari-sama!" cried the elders, standing up respectfully.
"I thought you said Kankurou was the Kazekage?" Naruto cried at Gaara, pointed at the white-and-blue clad youth. "That looks nothing like him!"
"Shut up!" Kankurou snapped, whacking Naruto across the head. "I had a couple of changes, ok?!"
"Yeah... like your girly hair?" Naruto pointed to the long brown strands of hair sweeping Kankurou's face.
Kankurou huffed angrily, stomping over to take his place at the front of the room. Temari sat down next to Naruto. "The Elders of the Sand will recognize Uzumaki Naruto," Kankurou said in a business-like voice, taking off his hat and placing it in front of him on the desk.
"I knew you had girl hair!" Naruto shouted, pointing at Kankurou's shoulder-length hair.
"Shikamaru's hair is longer," Kankurou said through a cough.
"Can we get on with this?" Temari snapped angrily.
"Right, right..." Kankurou said in a bored voice. "Naruto, do you know why we called you here?"
"Nope." Naruto grinned.
Kankurou sweat-dropped.
"Ok... Well, we have been reviewing ways to seal the Shukaku within Gaara—"
"Really?! Awesome, dude!" Naruto clapped Gaara on the back.
"..." Kankurou raised an eyebrow. "But the procedure requires a massive amount of chakra."
"That sucks." Naruto crossed his arms, making a Naruto-expression.
"So we need you to call forth the Kyuubi, and allow us to use his chakra," Kankurou finished.
"For what?"
Kankurou, Temari and the elders fell over anime-style. "To allow us to seal the Shukaku!" Kankurou shouted.
"Oh, yeah... Ok, I'll help out!" Naruto grinned.
Kankurou and Temari looked at each other skeptically. "So, what are we doing?" Kankurou asked.
"We're sealing the Shukaku," Naruto said, as if Kankurou were stupid. "Man, your memory sucks!"
"Ok, just checking..."
