Chapter 3: Wow
A/N: Hi everyone, I'm not dead! I haven't updated in months, have i? Well, that's changing right... NOW!"Gaara! Let me go!" Naru screamed again.
He was choking her, and she was scraping her nails against the wall behind her. She grabbed his hand and said, "OK Gaara! We'll play it your way!" Naru grab his hand, (she had enormous power) and kicked twisted her body, trying to kick him. "Too slow!" He said.
He grabbed her leg and broke it. Naru twitched. She managed to get away from his grasp. Gaara was about to attack her but stopped. She was moving in front of him, going the opposite direction. 'She's...cute'
BAM! She kicked him so hard that he went flying. Pieces of his sand shield on his face crumbled and fell to the ground. Naru walked over to him, limping.
"SO does that mean I win"
"Not in your life!" Gaara kicked her and sent her flying also.
'She...caught me off guard! How'
Naru slowly sat up from the ground.
"Gaara...I don't want to hurt you!" She yelled.
"I've been searching forever, trying to find Gaara, Gaara of the sand! Everyone said i was crazy, that I'd die trying but"
Tears rolled down her face.
"But I couldn't give up trying to find my friend!" She sobbed.
"Everybody, was right"
"W-what"
"You are crazy, trying to befriend a demon freak like me"
"No Gaara!" He crushed her under the tons and tons of sand of his village.
'She's gone. Finally. She was my only weakness... and my only friend"
Gaara stared at the setting sun, at the sand village. HIS village. All his. But then... why did he.. feel so sad? The sun finally setted and he stood for hours and hours, watching the moon rise. He remebered what his uncle said, that one day.
Flashback
'I've never been hurt before, so i was wondering how it felt...' The small Gaara looked down.
'How should I explain this...It's painful and unbearable... Like, when a person is shot or cut, he becomes very ill at ease and he can't think normally'
Yasamaru had smiled and contiued: 'I can't explain well, put simply put, it's not a very good condition to be in'
Gaara had stared at his wound.
'Yashamaru'
'yes'
'Then, you must hate me'
'...People hurt each other and get hurt during their lifetimes. But it's difficult to hate another.' He smiled down at Gaara.
'Thanks, yashamaru! I think i understand what hurting is now'
'really'
'I always hurt here...' Gaara had put his hand to the place in his heart.
Yashamaru smiled and took the knife from gaara's hand and cut his finger.
'Flesh wounds bleed, and they may seem painful. But, over time, the pain dissapears. But! The tricky wounds are in your heart. Those are difficult to heal'
'A wound of the heart'
'a wound of the heart is different from a flesh wound. Unlike a flesh wound, there is no medicene to heal it, and there are times when they never heal'
Gaara looked sad, so his uncle said, 'But there is one thing that can heal a wound of the heart'
'Huh'
'It is troublesome medicene, and you can only recieve it from another person'
'What! How can I heal this'
'The thing that can heal the wound of a heart is... Love'
'Love'
'yes'
'How can i get that? How should i get rid of this pain'
'gaara, you have already recieved it.' Yashamaru turned to the picture of Gaara's mother and his sister.
'Love is the spirit of devoting yourself to someone important and close to you.. It's expressed by caring and protecting a person. I believe that my sister always loved you, Gaara'
end of flashback
Lies. All lies! Gaara thought.
A hand popped up next to Gaara. He was so busy in his own thoughts, he didn't notice that Naru was coming up from the sand.
"Hi"
He knew that voice! It was.
"Naru"
"Hi Gaara!" She smiled and laughed.
"You're not... scared of me"
"I never was"
A/N: Um.. the end?
He was choking her, and she was scraping her nails against the wall behind her. She grabbed his hand and said, "OK Gaara! We'll play it your way!" Naru grab his hand, (she had enormous power) and kicked twisted her body, trying to kick him. "Too slow!" He said.
