Glad u like the last chappie….hope ya like dis 1 too….I may not update everyday cus sch jus started…..we'll see how it goes. Gaara changed his clothes again but im too lazy to describe them, also I dun wanna spoil as much as I can help. Let's begin (Warning warning spoiler alert.).
Yuuhi let out a sneeze followed by a spasms of coughs, she was lying in bed wearing an oversized shirt and looking extremely pale. Gaara came in and stood at her bed.
"I'm going to stay with you today; no way am I leaving you alone in this condition."
He turned around and made for the door to report his absence for his duties, a hand grabbed his arm.
"No, you are the Kazekage and I don't want you to neglect the village because of me (cough, cough), even if I am about to die. Promise me this one thing; never neglect the Suna for me."
Yuuhi had a weak hold on his arm and was barely able to stand up, her voice was hardly audible. Gaara sighed seeing that she was not in the condition to argue with him.
"I promise"
Yuuhi fell forward and he caught her before she hit the floor and carried her bridal style to the bed, placing her gently down he walked out, coming back minutes later with a cup of hot tea. Yuuhi thanked him and sipped a little before putting it on the bedside table. She then laid back and tried to rest but a small feeling was disturbing her, as if something bad was about to happen. 10 minutes after he left, she reached out for the cup and it cracked before she touched it, a bad omen.
Gaara was sitting in his office, for once he was a little restless and was unable to concentrate on his work. There was a loud bang which snapped him out of his thoughts; he decided to check it out. Making his way to the top of the building, he saw an Akatsuki member riding on a huge white bird; he folded his arms and sand rushed out of his gourd. They started fighting and Gaara was tricked by the Akatsuki member, he was seriously injured and fell from the sky, he landed on the bird's tail and the tail curled up to secure him. The Akatsuki member got ready to leave.
"Stop, give the Kazekage to me."
The Akatsuki member turned to find Yuuhi riding on the wind in full battle clothes and holding her fan, she looked weak and coughed a lot.
"The Hachibi…. she was here all the long?"
She thought
"You don't look very well to fight with me, my orders were to bring the Echibi but since you are here I might as well bring you too, this would be easy yeah."
A few clay birds flew at her and exploded near her, her shield protected her from most of the damage. If not for that, her blurry vision and her sluggish movements would never allow her to dodge it. She did a few hand seals.
"Katon Hinosousa no Jutsu."
She blew a huge inferno at the Akatsuki member and a huge cloud of smoke appeared as a burning Akatsuki cloak fluttered down, five bigger homing birds surrounded her and exploded. The explosion was too great to protect herself and she fell onto the bird's tail beside Gaara who was barely conscious, his voice was weak.
"Yuuhi no baka, you are putting yourself in danger, I may not come back but don't neglect the Suna. They will not have you."
He pushed her off the bird with the very last ounce of strength he had and fainted, Yuuhi fell and a pair of arms caught her in mid air, Kankuro looked at Yuuhi in his arms and then at the sky. He put her down and went after Gaara.
12 hours later Yuuhi found herself in a hospital room beside Kankuro, he looked quite badly bruised and they had removed his shirt and headgear to reveal his bandaged up body.
"Shit, Gaara."
Yuuhi ripped the tubes and other things off her neck and hands, she still felt sluggish but there was no way that she would just sit around and wait for Gaara. She snuck out of the hospital and headed towards the direction that the Akatsuki on the bird headed, riding on the wind because her legs needed its strength for later should a problem arise. Here and there she found little traces of the Akatsuki that a normal ninja would not have noticed.
"Gaara hang on, I'm coming."
She thought
"Yuuhi-san, chotto matte (Wait a minute)."
Yuuhi stopped and turned around to see the familiar faces of Sakura, Naruto, Sasuke and Temari; there was also a silver haired Jounin with his forehead protector covering one eye.
"Yuuhi-san, are you after Gaara-san? We have to head to the Suna first, come with us."
"No, there is no time, head there first. I have to go after Gaara."
"But Yuuhi-san, you don't look well, come with us first."
"I am alright; I have to find Gaara before its too late."
"Well if you insist then I suggest you take Oitsumeru along with you, you will need him."
The Jounin whistled and dog with a bandage around his head appeared beside her, team 7 took their leave, the dog looked up at her.
"We are supposed to find the Kazekage? You have a scent of him?"
Yuuhi reached in her pocket and pulled out some sand for the dog to sniff, it caught the scent and set off, they traveled for a while before they reached a wall with a big rock covering what looked like a hole.
"From here onwards I cannot do anything, good luck."
The dog said and left, Yuuhi did a Jutsu and blended with the shadows around her as she saw an Akatsuki member do a few seals and enter, following silently, she entered with him. The room was filled with Akatsuki members sitting on rocks and chanting; in the middle of the room was a big statue and Gaara who was screaming his head off, some white thing was coming out of his body through his eyes and mouth and floating into the statue. She cringed when she heard him screaming and pulled out her fan, the screaming and chanting was giving her a huge headache and she was feeling faint but she held on and did a few Jutsus.
"Minishimirukaze Tsuin Ryu No Jutsu. (Twin Piercing Wind Dragons)"
She interlaced her fingers and held her fan in front of her two open palms, the wind around her started twisting and building up in front of her fan; it became two twin dragons and headed for the statue. Upon smashing into the, statue the dragons moved through the statue again and again until it was destroyed completely, the Akatsuki stood up in alarm and began looking for the attacker, using the alarm and chaos as a cover Yuuhi grabbed Gaara and brought him to a darker part of the cave. There was a commotion outside the cave and the huge rock cracked before crumbling, an old lady, team 7 and Neji's team stood outside, Yuuhi rode the wind out and back to the Suna with Gaara.
When they reached the Suna, Yuuhi got to the hospital and promptly collapsed in the hallway. Doctors and nurses rushed to the two unconscious bodies on the floor, they put them in the emergency room. Gaara was in there for about 3 hours before his condition stabilized and he was put in a ward, Yuuhi was in there for 10 hours before she was put in the same ward as Gaara, she was on life support and multiple tubes and talismans covered her body. Two nurses walked in every hour to check on their condition everyday.
"It's a miracle that she is still alive, she over exhausted herself when she was seriously ill, she should be dead by now."
"Yeah, she shouldn't have been able to get out of bed to go after him the last time; we predicted that she would be unconscious for at least 5 days."
Temari and Kankuro walked in and the nurses quickly left, they have never left the hospital since Gaara and Yuuhi were admitted.
"They have been here for a week already, how long do you think it would be before they get up?"
"I don't know."
Gaara shifted a little.
"Gaara? Gaara."
Gaara opened his eyes and sat up.
"Gaara you are awake!"
Temari and Kankuro rushed to his bed, Gaara looked around at the unfamiliar surroundings.
"Where's Yuuhi?"
He looked at his brother and sister for an answer. Kankuro and Temari looked at each other before moving aside to let Gaara see Yuuhi with the life support equipment.
"What happened?"
He asked quietly, Kankuro told him the whole story briefly, Gaara looked at Yuuhi again softly. Temari and Kankuro thought it was best to leave him with his thoughts and left. Gaara walked unsteadily to her bed and grabbed her hand.
"Yuuhi no baka, why did you do that? You might have died along with me."
A nurse walked in.
"Kazekage-Sama, you are not strong enough to stand yet, please rest."
She helped Gaara back to his bed, 3 days later he was discharged. Everyday he would visit her after his duties, he was allowed to stay in the hospital with her as long as he wanted so he never went home, in 2 weeks she was taken off life support. A month later, Yuuhi's eyes opened to find herself staring at a white ceiling, sitting up slowly she saw that she was in a hospital. A nurse walked in and pushed her down.
"Rest."
"Where's Gaara?"
"Kazekage-Sama is at the Kazekage building."
"He's alright?"
"Yes."
The nurse walked out and sent a messenger to the building. Gaara was sitting at his table when he heard a knock on the door.
"Come in."
"Kazekage-Sama, Yuuhi-Sama is awake."
Before the word awake had fully left his lips, Gaara was gone. He appeared beside Yuuhi who got a shock, she pulled him down and kissed him fiercely, he kissed her back and the nurse walked in on their make out session. She quickly backed out. He pulled away and cupped her face.
"You stupid, stupid girl you could have gotten killed."
"I rather get killed with you then live without you."
They kissed again.
"You are so impulsive."
"I want to get out of here now."
"No, rest until you are fully recovered."
"When would that be?"
"I don't know."
A week later, she was discharged.
