Three days had passed, since the sand-nins had saved Shikamaru's team from the Sound Five. Walking along the endless land of sand, Gaara and the others found themselves thinking how their lives would be like from now on. Gaara pondered on his near death situation with Kimimaro. He knew he would have to become stronger, if he wanted to survive and prove his existence. Temari, on the other hand, was thinking of visiting Konoha someday again. Seeing Shikamaru always made her smile and just thinking about him made her blush. Kankurou, who was staring at Temari's odd behavior, was thinking about his fight with Sakon. Sakon(and his brother)'s defeat had been easy and he thought if the ninjas of Konoha, really were as strong as they seemed to be.
"Our village is just 6 miles ahead," Temari stated abruptly, stopping their thoughts.
"Yea...I know," answered Kankurou.
For sand-nins, walking along the desert was as simple as walking on the ground in Konoha, and it usually took three or four days to arrive at their village. The heat didn't really bother them, as they were used to it since birth. There were also wild beasts in the desert, but even they knew approaching Gaara was a ridiculous mistake. It took two or three weeks for other nins just to reach the village. But due to the heat and the huge, deadly beasts, most ninjas wouldn't survive if they weren't careful. Therefore, the Sand Village hardly had any attacks or wars.
As they neared the village, Gaara heard doors closing and the clitter-clatter of feet as they ran for protection. Some stayed in their position, as they were too shaken to move.
"We-we-welcome back, Ga-ga-gaara, Te-temari...Ka-kankurou," a shopkeeper sputtered.
"Hello, Hanime," Temari said, trying to shake off the tension in the village.
It seemed that, although Gaara did willingly helped his village in their attack in Konoha earlier, the tension said that nothing had changed and Gaara will never be accepted. Temari glanced at Gaara, who was in front of her, ignoring the screams and shouts of the village people as they saw him. She knew Gaara wasn't actually bad, but she couldn't help feeling afraid if she talked to him. Kankurou, who also was staring at Gaara's back, had always hated him. He hated him for making himself actually feel afraid. In fact, he wanted nothing more than to get rid of Gaara, even ridding Temari would be pleasant. He smiled as he thought about his life without the two nuisances.
"What the hell are you smiling about?" Temari snapped.
"Oh, nothing...just that we're finally home" he replied as they neared their place.
Bitch, thought Kankurou through gritted teeth, as he cautiously got in front of Gaara and opened the door. Examining the room, Gaara slowly walked pass Kankurou to his room, upstairs. After Gaara had left, Temari pushed Kankurou out of the way, and walked to the couch, slumping on the soft cotton. Cursing softly, Kankurou walked to his room, glaring at Temari.
The next day, Gaara heard shouts and the uproars of people as he jumped back, into his room. Walking down the stairs, he heard Temari, trying to quiet down the crowd.
"Please, there's no need for this…Gaara's different now…" she tried explaining, raising her hands.
"A monster like him will never change!" shouted a man.
"Yeah! Monsters like him shouldn't live with us!" yelled Hanime.
"He'll only give us more trouble than we need! With the Kazekage dead, we can finally rid of the monster!" yelled another.
"Yes, it's true, the villagers and I have come to an agreement…we all came to an agreement…Gaara is to be banished," said the spokesperson of the Sand village.
