Sakashi1217: Here we go again! All of you who managed not to fall asleep in that last chapter will surely drool in this one…

Kakashi: No, I think it will get exciting

Sakashi1217: Hey! Gaara did not do anything yet!

Kakashi: Why do you want me to leave?

Sakashi1217: No! just help me instead.

Sasuke: These two should get a hobby. Anyways, just enjoy!

Chapter 3: Sandy Memories

Sasuke and Kakashi hurried out of the village premises in search for Gaara, "You know, we should have let an expert Jounin come." Sasuke told Kakashi as they jumped through trees. Kakashi looked at him sourly (well, he's felling hurt… even though his mask does not show it, but his eye does!), "Why? Don't you think I'm capable in handling this situation?" "Well, if you're gonna ask what I really think, then yes, I think we'll be sunk in trouble with your…lax…profile. No offense sensei, but I think we should make a plan." Kakashi shook his head, "I though you were smart Sasuke, of course I have a plan. And about our safety, I won't promise anything but if you will be good enough to follow my orders then we will be fine." Sasuke shrugged, "Where are we going anyway?" "To Suna. I'm sure that whoever took him will bring him home then train him again, or bring back his memories somehow." Kakashi replied. Sasuke fell silent. He couldn't think of anyone who could've the guts to let Gaara free and tame him. He just looked forward to getting home safely to Sakura safely again…

Gaara and the blond-haired girl stopped outside a door. They were in the middle of nowhere, somewhere in a desert. The girl opened it then ushered Gaara in, "Your name is Gaara and I am your sister, Temari. You will have to eat first before I answer all of your questions. Hmmm…looks like you need to be trained again!" Gaara lookedat her in a puzzled way, "Trained? What do you mean trained? And where are we?" Temari smiled at him, "We are at my house. You will stay here until you are properly dressed, (she hands him a black t-shirt and some pants) armed, (hands him a big cracked jar and some kunais) and you also need to be fed because…well, I know you're hungry. Don't worry, you can trust me. I will find a way to bring back your memories, but in the meantime, I will teach you some defenses you may use in order to survive, because seriously, you are helpless." Gaara took time for all those words to sink in. he was fond of this person but he still couldn't trust her. But he knows he has to because she's the only key to her memories.

End of Chapter

Sakashi1217: Yeah! That sucked some more!

Kakashi: No I think it was fine.

Gaara: Yeah, I agree with him…hey, when will I get my memories?

Sakashi1217: Dream on! You think you can get it easily? No! I will make it slow and painful!

Gaara: Hmph! (Encases me in a cocoon)

Kakashi: Hey! Let her go!

Sakura: Hmm…looks like sensei found his mate!

Kakashi: Well…(coughs) I mean, if she stays there, she won't be able to finish the story.

Gaara: You have a point! (releases me)

Sakashi1217: That's okay! (flicks through the manuscript) hey, isn't there some episodes with no encase-him/her-in-a-cocoon-then-stick-a-samurai-thingy?

Sasuke: I'm bored…

Naruto: How can you be bored? You have loads to do! Once again my name isn't even on the script! Hey Iris! Do you have a grudge on me?

Sakashi1217: Of course not Naruto-Kun! I'm just saving you for later. Anyhows, just do me a favor, please R&R even if my stories stinks! Thanks! 
