Chapter Nine: Prove it!

When we got to my house, I snuck but into my window and quickly closed to curtains. I turned around to have Temari in my face up to mine.

"Where were you? Why did you sneak out again?" she asked grabbing my wrists.

"I was just walking around, that's all." I said turning my head away from her.

"What happened to your hands?" she asked going to pull the bandages off my hands.

"I cut myself of the concrete… I fell." I reclaimed my hands before she saw them.

"Fine, but look I think that you should… Gaara what happened to your neck?" she peered towards me to see but my hands covered the bandages quickly.

"Just get out of my room Temari; it's none of your business."

"Is that what the assassin did?" I didn't answer, "So it is…?"

"Just get out of my room, I'm fine."

"Gaara, please just let me in for once! You're so unbelievable! I can't stand it… I…!" Temari stopped yelling once Kazekage put his hand on her shoulder.

"Temari, go back to bed." he said leading her out into the hallway.

"But dad I was…" she complained walking back towards my door.

"Temari! I said go!" he yelled pushing her into the wall.

"Don't touch her again!" I yelled from behind.

Kazekage looked at me in rage. He knew that something was different about me because I was protecting someone other than myself for once.

"If you EVER touch her again I swear I'll rip your arms right out of the sockets! Got it!" I yelled. He only smiled to see that I had been hurt for once.

"So," he said closing the door behind him, locking Temari out, "you met your new assassin friend I see."

"Don't you dare digress! This is your last chance, apologize to her or kill you right now!"

"Hmph, will you?" he opened the door and I saw Temari leaning against the wall crying, "Then go ahead, do it. Remind your sister why she hates you."

"What?" my eyes got huge as I looked over at Temari, she wasn't denying it.

"You mean you didn't know?" he asked followed by a laugh, "You honestly thought that someone would try to like you? How foolish of you."

"Gaara it's not true! You are loved!" Temari screamed as I jumped out of my window.

Walking away from the house, I could hear Temari screaming my name, but I didn't turn around. I ran back to the one place I felt peace: the ocean. I leaned against a tree and looked up at the sky. I was so tired I couldn't stand it, but I can't fall asleep. I held my hand over the sandy beach and began to manipulate it to the form of kunai. It was a simple transformation and yet it was stronger than a real kunai. I smiled knowing that I could make anything out of this sand. This makes me want to live by the ocean.

"Is it childish of me to talk to the ocean?" I asked myself, "Is that good? That I'm being childish… I mean I am a child right?" I laid on my back and closed my eyes, "If only I can do this for a few hours."

"You will be able to one day," a voice over me said. I opened my eyes to see Temari over me.

"What are you doing here?" I asked jumping up on my knees.

"I followed you. I needed to tell you something. About what dad said, I know you think I hate you because I didn't say anything in my defense, but I couldn't. To tell the truth I did hate you at one time, I blamed you for something I knew wasn't your fault, but here lately you've been changing. I know you want to be normal, I know that you just want what everyone else wants: to love and be loved in return." She said kneeling before me.

"So, you're saying you don't hate me?"

"No, I'm saying I love you. You might not think I do, but you're my brother, and I'll accept you in any form or size because of that. And I know you love me too because if you didn't, you would've never stood up for me against dad." With that, she leaned towards me and gave me a hug.

"Thanks Temari." I said hugging her back.

"Temari, if you truly love me, how will you prove it?" I asked pulling myself away, "Last time, Yashamaru said he loved me when he really despised me, he even hated the fact he had to act like he loved me."

"I'm not sure what you want me to do.," she said looking utterly confused.

"I want you to take this kunai, and kill me." I said handing her the kunai I made.

"Gaara but I…"

"Don't worry," I said throwing my gourd away from me, "you'd be doing a lot a people a favor. Now just do it, kill me."

"I don't want to do it…"

"Kill me!"

"No!"

"Do it or I'll kill you!" I yelled making another kunai and placing to her throat.

"Gaara no!"

"Last chance! Think about it, you'd get praise from father, you could be the first female Kazekage, you would become to best ninja ever. Taking all my titles and freeing me at the same time. Don't you want your brother to be free!"

"I do but not like this…"

"Do it!" I pulled my arm back as if I were about to stab her in the side of her neck.

"NO!" she screamed dropping the kunai and placing her hands on the ground.

The kunai in my hand fell back to the ground as sand, and I grabbed her shoulder. She looked at me and I smiled.

"That'll do." I said standing up with her.

"What would you have done if I stabbed you?" she asked getting kind of angry with me.

"Meh, the blade wouldn't have had the chance to touch me, we are sitting in sand you know? What made you so sure that I wasn't going to stab you, huh?"

"I thought you were…"

"Hmph."

"Come on, let's get out of here. It's time to go to school."

"Temari, I killed one of my classmates yesterday during lunch."

"Uh… Well let's hope nobody pisses you off today alright?"

"Yeah."
