They were growing tired of running but the had to make or Sakura and TenTen might die of blood loss.
"Are we there yet Gaara?" Naruto complained, "We should see the village any second now" Gaara answered.
Soon enough the village emerged from the horizon, Gaara's speed increased as he saw it, Neji and Naruto tried to keep up, 'how can he have so much energy?' they thought.
Finally they reached the Sand gates, Gaara sped through them not bothering to wait for the others.
"Was that Lord Gaara?" one of the guards asked, then Neji and Naruto sped past, the guards just looked, "is there a meeting we don't know about?"
Gaara ran up to the palace busting through the doors, "Lord Gaara" the inside guards said surprised, "get the palace doctor" he ordered.
The guards ran off as he took Sakura to the infirmary that was in the palace, soon to be joined with the other four.
Temari ran in with the doctor, "Gaara!" she yelled happily and hugged her little brother, "I was so worried about you" she cried.
She looked down at the sleeping Sakura as the doctor examined her and the nurse looked at TenTen, "why is she still in her wedding dress?" Temari questioned.
"What do you mean?" they all said, "well you said in your letter you were getting married spring 4th" she said puzzled.
"We did get married spring 4th" Gaara stated, Temari's eyes widened, "Temari what day is it?" Gaara ordered.
"Its spring 24th" Temari said losing her breathe, Gaara looked back at the other's who had looks of astonishment on their faces.
"That's not possible, we were had captive for 20 days" Neji said, Temari looked at them in confusion, "I'll tell you the whole story" Gaara sighed and walked Temari out to the living room.
The doctor stood up, "will you all lie down on a bed, I would like to check all of you" he said giving them a warm smile.
"It seems these two are the worst so let me finish with them and then I'll check you all" he said bandaging Sakura's wound and putting medicine on it.
The nurse moved to Neji, "you seem fine, except you have a lot of bruises" he said putting an ointment on them.
Everyone now all healed sat up, except for TenTen and Sakura who were asleep, "the pink haired women, is pregnant" the doctor said calmly.
"What?" they all said, Gaara walked in with Temari behind him, and then Kankuro came in.
Gaara felt his presence and turned around, Temari turned to see what had Gaara's attention, "Kankuro" she said angrily.
"Hello little brother, how is my women," she smirked, Gaara glared at him intently, "she is not your women"
"Yeah" Temari retaliated, "she's Gaara's" clearly Gaara was favored over Kankuro, Kankuro glared at his sister, then he saw Sakura on the hospital bed.
"What did you do to her!" he shouted, "I didn't do anything, and besides if anyone did anything it was you!" Gaara shouted back.
"My Lord, and sir Kankuro please" the doctor interrupted, "I have more important news, this women is pregnant" the doctor finished.
Temari's mouth dropped open, Kankuro smirked, and Gaara didn't show anything, he already knew this, "who does it belong to?" Kankuro asked, not remembering he had never really entered her.
"Well, it is Lord Gaara's" the doctor said to Gaara, "I already knew she was pregnant" Gaara said looking at Sakura's sleeping face.
"Really who told you?" the doctor asked, "Sakura told me, after…" Gaara stopped not wanting to continue.
"Doctor," Temari interrupted, "is everyone ok?" he nodded, "everyone is fine, the two women just need rest they lost a lot of blood"
"Of course I haven't evaluated you, My Lord" the doctor bowed, Gaara sat down on the be next to Sakura.
The doctor began his check-up, "My Lord, so how old is the girl?" Gaara flinched, "16" he said quietly, "16!" the doctor said loudly.
"We're married" Gaara retaliated, "Oh, sorry my Lord, but you know she looks a lot like that Princess from Leaf" the doctor said almost done with Gaara.
"She is the Princess from Leaf" Gaara said annoyed now, the doctor nodded "all done you seem to be fine" the doctor smiled, and looked at the sleeping girl beside him.
"My Lord if I may," the doctor looked at Gaara, "no I do not care what you have to say about the pregnancy it would have happened sooner or later" Gaara huffed out.
"But wouldn't later have been better" the doctor stated, Gaara glared at him, "I said I did not care for your opinion"
Gaara walked over and picked up Sakura, "what are you doing my Lord?" the nurse asked, "I'm not leaving her in here, alone" he glared at Kankuro.
"Neji get TenTen, Naruto, Hinata I will show you to your rooms, we will stay for one day" Gaara said walking out, Temari turned to Kankuro "you try anything and I will kill you"
Gaara had led all the others to their rooms, he came to his old room and opened the door, he laid Sakura on the bed, he sat on the edge of the bed.
He looked at the clock, '7:00pm' he thought, "I guess I'll change" he said to him self walking up to his dresser, he found a red outfit(the one from the episodes where he saves Lee).
Gaara sat next to Sakura leaning against the bed frame, he looked down at the fragile girl beside him, '20 days' he sighed.

Gaara walked out of his room, it was now around 11:00pm, he went out to find a new kimono for Sakura.
From the shadows Kankuro saw Gaara leave the room, he smiled and emerged, he grabbed the door knob and entered.
He looked around, and saw the door to Gaara's bedroom cracked open just enough to where you could see Sakura, illuminated by the moon coming through the window.
Kankuro eased the door open so he wouldn't wake her, he finally entered the room and was standing near the far edge of the bed.
Then from the darkness of the corner of the room, two jade eyes flashed open, "What are you doing Kankuro?" Gaara glared.
Kankuro froze and turned to where the voice came from, he saw two piercing eyes that belonged to his brother.
"B-But I s-saw you l-leave" he stuttered, "do you seriously think I'm stupid, Kankuro, to actually leave Sakura alone in the same house as you" he tried to keep his angry voice down.
"Why do you think I'm not sleeping tonight" Gaara stated, "well shouldn't you sleep, I heard you were captive for 20 days" Kankuro said defensively.
"I was asleep for 20 days, she is the one who needs sleep" he glared, Gaara emerged from his dark corner, totally pissed off.
"Tell me Kankuro how did your legs heal so fast?" Gaara smirked devilishly, Sakura woke up silently and sat up rubbing her eyes.
"Gaara honey what's going on?" her eyes adjusted to the darkness, she looked at Gaara and then over.
Her eyes widened, she looked down to see she still had all her clothes on, she got out of bed and walked behind Gaara, grabbing his arm.
"Oh and by the way Kankuro that was a bushin of me," Gaara smirked, Kankuro frowned, "now I suggest you leave before I get really pissed" Gaara threatened.
Kankuro walked out of the room, running into Gaara's clone which glared at him as he exited.
It walked up and placed the new kimono on the bed before disappearing, "here I got you a new kimono" Gaara said handing it to her.
"Thanks" she said kissing him, then she stripped down not caring if Gaara saw, they were married now.
Gaara's eyes gazed upon what was his, he couldn't stand her just being there, naked.
He grabbed her and threw her on the bad and got on top of her, "Sakura you are mine" he said possessively kissing her.
"Gaara this isn't fair" she moaned, he moved down her neck sucking on her light skin.
"Gaara!" she moaned louder, he continued down her body coming to her breasts, "Gaara this is no fair" she panted.
He smiled, "why?" he simply asked not leaving his spot on her breast, "I'm completely naked and your fully clothed" she panted faster as he moved his tongue over her hard nipple.
He sat up, "besides Gaara I have to get ready look what time it is, he looked at the clock, "1:00am" he sighed, "fine"
He got up and allowed her to dress in the new green kimono, it had slits up the sides to her thighs, the sleeves were like her wedding kimono, Gaara tossed her a katana from his dresser.
"Thanks" she smiled placing it on her side, "you know Gaara I love it when you wear red," she smiled seductively.
"Really?" he said interested, he wound his arms around her waist, "you know what I love you wearing" he teased back, "what?" she asked drawing circles with her finger on his back.
He leaned to her ear, "nothing" he smirked, she giggled "well Gaara sweet-ness, we better get the others if we are going to leave"
He sighed, "and you call me the fun-killer" she laughed, "hold on" he said opening the window, sand rushed in the room creating a gourd.
"There all ready," he smirked, Sakura grabbed several kunai and hid them in her kimono, "lets go" she smiled.
They walked out to the hall, they stopped at the room the girls were sharing, Gaara knocked quietly 3 times.
They opened the door, all dressed in new kimonos, TenTen had tons of weapon scroll hidden, and Hinata had a couple kunai.
Without a sound they followed Gaara and Sakura down the hall where they came to another door, Gaara once again knocked 3 times.
Neji answered the door, he and Naruto were dressed in Ninja cloths, they nodded and then followed Gaara once again.
Then the stopped one more time this time Gaara only knocked twice, Temari opened her door and nodded seeing Gaara, tears came to her eyes and she hugged her little brother.
"Be careful and be safe," she cried hugging him, "and come back" she finished letting go, he smiled at her before she closed the door and deep sobbing could be heard.
They went out the front doors quietly, walking down the streets at a fast pace, Sakura stopped as she heard something.
She departed from them quickly following where the voice was coming from, she turned a corner to see a man threatening a women, as he backed her up to a wall.
"Come on babe" he coxed, "get away from me" she pushed him off and headed near Sakura he grabbed her hand and pulled her to him.
Sakura walked up and punched him in the face, he smashed against the wall, the women looked at Sakura, "thank you" she said gratefully, "don't mention it" Sakura smiled.
The man can from behind Sakura and placed a knife to her throat, the women gasped, Sakura smiled and started laughing, as she elbowed him then grabbed his shoulders and flipped over him.
Now behind him she kicked back into the wall, "wow, where did you learn that?" the women asked, "I was taught by my father so I could protect myself on the battlefield" Sakura replied.
"Wait aren't princesses they only girls allowed on the war field?" the women questioned, Sakura looked at her, "yeah, oh I'm sorry I am Princess Sakura from Leaf"
"Arigato, Princess Sakura" she bowed and turned to leave, the man from before grabbed Sakura's arms and held them back.
"Let go!" Sakura commanded, "A Princess? Huh? I like to have fun with a princess" he whispered in her ear, she couldn't break free now that he had her arms.
"That's Lady to you, your talking to your Lord's wife" she hissed, the women eye's widened so did the man's "you're Lord Gaara's wife?" she asked.
"Doesn't matter, Lord Gaara isn't here now, and if you're good enough to be his women you must be one hell of a women," he licked her ear, a shiver went up her spine.
'Damn it' she couldn't break free, he moved his hand to try and grab one of her breasts, "you better get your hands off my wife!" a very angry voice came, followed by a even more pissed Gaara.
The man stepped away releasing Sakura, "My lord, Gaara-sama, I did not know she was your wife" he bowed trying to defend himself.
Sakura ran to Gaara, he wrapped on arm around her waist pulling her towards him, "really now? You didn't" he demanded.
"No, no Lord Gaara-sama I had no idea" he said trying to get away, but Gaara's sand grabbed him, "so, then what would 'doesn't matter Lord Gaara isn't here now' supposed to mean"
The man gulped, " and even if she wasn't my wife, just another women like her," he pointed to the women, "I don't think I'd be too happy about that either" Gaara growled.
"I'm sorry Lord Gaara-sama, I promise I will never ever touch another women harmfully again" he said truthfully.
"Come on Sakura, we have to go" Gaara commanded, the women ran off, and Gaara and Sakura left the man.
Once they got back to the street they saw the others waiting, "don't run off like that" Gaara said, continuing forward.
Soon they reached the gate, they walked right past the guards, "Lord Gaara" they saluted.
They all stopped, Gaara looked at Sakura then to the rest "ready?" he asked looking back seeing if anyone was following them, no one.
"Let's go" he ordered and they all sped off, and headed towards moon.
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
It was around noon now, and they hadn't rested, suddenly Gaara stopped and began to look around, "damn we're surrounded" he cursed.
