Gaara and Sakura sat in the moving carriage, "Gaara shouldn't we be at the palace by now?" Sakura asked looking out the window, Gaara smirked "We're just taking a detour"
Sakura turned around face to face with Gaara, Sakura turned red "what's wrong" he smirked.
He leaned in and kissed her, Sakura immediately kissed back, they broke apart "so this is why we are taking a detour" Sakura smiled devilishly.
Sakura leaned on him and he fell back and she was on top of him, "you know Gaara I have never met anyone like you, your red hair and dark circles around you eyes, why do you have those?" She asked tracing them with her finger.
"I'm an insomniac" he replied kissing her forehead, she smiled "you know I just noticed something,"
"What?" he asked as she lay on his chest, "you and I are a lot alike" he looked down at her, "how?"
"Well," she started, "we both have around the same shade of hair, our eyes are the same and we both fell in love with each other the first time we saw each other"
He pulled her closer, "you know your pink hair makes you stand out," he laughed, "so" she said smiling up at him.
"It's like a rose in a field of daisies" he moved his hands throw her hair, "that's how I first caught sight of you"
"I saw you stand out from the crowd, and your much different then any other person I've met" he smiled at her as she cuddled closer to him.
She looked up into his eyes, they stared at each other, "I love you, my beautiful blossom" he said kissing her, "I love you too" she whispered.
The carriage came to a stop, Sakura and Gaara sat up as the carriage door opened, Gaara stepped out and helped Sakura down.
They walked into the ballroom that was full of people who applauded as they came in, Sakura went up to all the little girl children who were calling her.
"Lady Sakura you look very pretty" on girl said smiling, Sakura smiled at all of them, "would you all like to dress up in pretty kimonos too?" Sakura asked kindly.
They all shook their heads nodding, "excuse me" Sakura said to a servant, "my lady" he replied.
"Will you please bring me…" she stopped to count the girls, "20 girl kimonos for these her girls" she questioned, "of course" he bowed.
Five minutes later he came with all the kimonos, Sakura lead all the girls to the bathroom and dressed them all up.
"There we go" she smiled leading them all out, "arigato lady Sakura" they all bowed, "now you all have to find a cute little boy to dance with" Sakura smiled.
They all nodded, and ran of to show off their kimonos, Hinata walked up to Sakura, "those girls are so adorable" Sakura said to Hinata.
"Will the bride and groom please proceed to the dace floor," a voice said echoing through the room.
Sakura looked up and saw Neji who had spoken, 'what is he planning?' Sakura thought.
Sakura walked to the center of the dance floor where a clearing was made, and Gaara made his way through too, Sakura smiled as she saw him push through the crowd to the center.
They walked up to each other as the begging to What makes you different, began to play.
Gaara wrapped his arms around Sakura's waist, and Sakura placed her hands behind his neck,
You don't run with the crowd
You go your own way,
You don't play after dark
You light up my day,
Gaara and Sakura moved to the slow rhythm of the song,
Got your own kind of style that sits you apart
Babe that's why you captured my heart,
I know sometimes you feel like you don't fit in
And this world doesn't know what you have within,
Sakura leaned up too Gaara closing the gap between them, as all the spectators watch in awe as the two danced,
When I look at you I see something rare
A rose that can go anywhere,
And there is no one I know that can compare,
What makes you different makes you beautiful
What's there inside you shines through to me,
In your eyes I see all the love I'll ever need
What makes you different makes you beautiful to me,
You've got something so real
You touched me so deep,
See material thing don't matter to me
So come as you are you got nothing to prove,
You won me with all that you do
And I want to take this chance to say to you,
Gaara held Sakura to him, not ever wanting this moment to end,
What makes you different makes you beautiful
What's there inside you shines through to me,
In your eyes I see all the love I'll ever need
What makes you different makes you beautiful,
You don't know how you touched my life
Oh, in so many ways I just can't describe,
You taught me what love is supposed to be
I saw the little things that make you beautiful to me,
What makes you, what makes you different makes you beautiful
What's there inside you shines through to me,
In your eyes I see all the love I'll ever need
What makes you different makes you beautiful to me,
You're beautiful to me.
The song stopped, Sakura looked up at Gaara and smiled, he placed his hand on her cheek.
A boy walked up to them, as another song began, "my lord if I may?" the boy around 17 asked, Sakura laughed and looked at Gaara.
Gaara eyed him, "fine" he said harshly and stepping aside, Sakura kissed Gaara on the cheek, and then began dancing with the man.
"You look very beautiful lady Sakura" he said kindly, she blushed, "thank you, and might I ask your name" she asked as they danced.
"It's Miroku" he said back, Gaara sat off to the side with Neji, just staring at them, making sure he didn't try anything, Neji laughed at his friend.
"Gaara don't worry Sakura loves you, and besides no one would dare even try to steal her from you, they know they would die" he continued laughing.
Then all the lights shut off, Gaara sat up alarmed, then he heard Sakura scream, his eyes widened, "SAKURA!" he yelled out.
"GET AWAY FROM ME!" she yelled, everyone started screaming, "SAKURA!" Gaara tried to yell over everyone, he was moving to the spot where Sakura was.
The light flashed on, but they were dim, Gaara looked at Sakura, who was on her knees holding her bloody arm, he looked over and saw a man.
"Sasuke!" Gaara shouted angrily as the man began to run towards Sakura again, "Hinata!" Sakura called and Hinata threw Sakura a katana.
Sakura unsheathed it, stood up and ran towards, apparently, Sasuke who had a kunai with her blood on it.
Sasuke made an attempt to strike her but she dodged it and impaled the katana in his leg, but then he came behind her and placed the kunai at her neck.
He held her arms behind her, "bloody little blossom aren't you" he snickered, the kunai pressed to her throat, than she felt it removed, and she fell to the ground.
She looked back to see Gaara in front of her with the man surrounded by sand unable to move.
"Ah, so this is your wedding, Gaara" Sasuke smiled evilly, Gaara's grip tightened, Sasuke flinched, "you're stronger than before" Sasuke tried to chuckle but the sand was crushing his body.
Sakura held her wound, the blood was stained on her white kimono, and Hinata and Neji activated their Byakugan, and searched the room.
"There's three more" Hinata yelled, to Gaara, who glared at Sasuke, he looked back at Sakura who was breathing hard, clutching her arm wound.
Hinata and Neji went and attacked the other two closest to them; they got them and pulled them to the clearing where Sasuke was.
"Those are the two girls that were with Ino yesterday!" Naruto pointed out, and then Ino popped out of nowhere and grabbed Sakura.
"Let go of me!" Sakura tried to break free but her arm was causing her too much pain, the other three broke out, thanks to the distraction.
Before the three could leave, they were stopped by Gaara, Neji, and Hinata.
"Naruto go get Sakura!" Gaara yelled as he saw Naruto take of after Ino, as TenTen followed him.
Gaara and Sasuke began fighting again as Hinata took on the one called Kaya, and Neji and Kikyo started battle.
Ino ran with Sakura trying to struggle, "stop moving caterpillar" she sneered, TenTen ran as fast as she could and jumped in front of Ino who came to a halt.
Ino turned to run the other way but was met by Naruto, "stop there pig!" he yelled, "I am not a pig!" she yelled.
TenTen took out two scrolls and made tons of weapons appear, and began throwing them at Ino who was dodging them, TenTen was being extra careful not to hit Sakura.
Then everyone saw Sasuke thrown out of the palace and smashed into a building as Gaara ran out immediately to finish the job.
The two girls came out behind him and threw two kunai; one missed but the other hit his arm.
Gaara ignored it until he realized there was poison on it, he slowed down, and it was a paralyzing poison.
Gaara fell to his knees, "Sakura…" he whispered before falling over, and Sakura crawled over to Gaara who was not far away from her.
"Gaara, wake up" she cried, she pulled him up to her lap, "you have to wake up, if you don't we might die" her tears fell to his face.
"Gaara, please you have too" tears now streaming down her face, TenTen was thrown against a wall.
Sakura turned as she heard her scream, Sakura stood up, ignoring the pain, Sasuke smirked, "the bloody little princess still has strength"
He ran up to her and maneuvered behind her and stabbed her in the back, she fell back down loosing consciousness, she looked beside her to see Gaara sleeping.
Sakura reached her hand out and touched his cheek, she was trying to wipe the tears that fell on him off.
Sasuke stepped on her arm, she flinched in pain, "time to go night, night" he smirked.
