Chapter 4: Sunagakure

Crossing the desert would take at least 4 hours on foot, bur Gaara transported the two, arriving at the gates in 15 minutes. At the gates, the guards glanced at the newcomers, and then quickly regained their posts when they saw who was coming.

Walking through the city, all was made of sand. They were approaching a giant house. It looked like a mansion.

"Whoa..."whispered Myaaki in awe, "Who's place is that?" she asked wondrously, evying the lucky person who owned that house.

"Me." Gaara answered, opening the front door.

The kunzite stopped in her tracks, gaping at Gaara with disbelief.

"Nah, you're just playing with me. You're joking, right?"

"I do not repeat myself girl." He growled.

The redhead Konoha nin entered the magnificent house.

"I'll show you to your room. " he said, with such icy coldness, that it made Myaaki wince slightly.

Out of the corner of his eye, Gaara saw the girl cringe at his words. He bowed his head a little, a pang of…

'What is this feeling?' he mentally asked himself.

'Guilt'

"Hn. Here it is." He opened another door, directly across from another one in the long corridor.

The room was HUGE! The bed looked too comfortable beyond words. The walls were white though, but it sparkled with cleanliness.

"Thank you!" Myaaki resisted the urge to squeal like a little school girl.

Saying nothing, Gaara closed the door, not gently, mind you.

Myaaki practically jumped in the air in delight.

"Perhaps…" she thought, "Perhaps it won't be so bad living here."

She concluded.
