Temari and Kankuro found their selves in a big hall. The ancient decorations remained beautiful, and outstanding on the walls. There were sophisticated pictures about some scenes, how a ninja slowly developed his chakra, and cleared his spirit.
"The statue of the Wind Spirit!" Kankuro exclaimed, as he noticed a big abstract statue in the center of the hall.
"Indeed it is." The old man said. " This statue is the center of the temple, it is said to be the heart of the temple. Look how he reached its hand out to the top of the building, as if it is keeping it up, with the other one, it is keeping a chakra, concentrated into an energy ball." He explained.
The old man walked to the statue, and started humming words in a low, monotone tone. Kankuro and Temari looked around with fascinated expressions.
"I wonder if the kazekages have learnt some techniques from that book we're searching for…" Kankuro asked silently.
"Perhaps? But probably not….Maybe now it's the time, us, the children of the Kazekage have to get him the book. To our father."
"Yep!I think so too."
The statue started to tremble, as if it was starting to move. Temari and Kankuro looked at it fascinated, as their guide didn't stop the humming shamanic noises. The statue turned at right, it reached out hand with the chakra ball pointed at an opened entrance at the right side of the wall.
"Your souls are clear, without no fear and lies. The statue let you enter the library to reveal the great knowledge this temple is keeping safe." the old man turned at the young ones, and then started walking at the entrance. The young ninjas followed the old man. The entrance was so short, Kankuro had to bend down not to his forehead, and then they had to go downstairs, their way lightened with candles. When they got in, they got even more amused. The library was in a huge, long underground room, with immense bookshelves.
"Wow, so many books and scrolls! I bet nobody could read them all! It's impossible!"
"I've read them all." The old man smiled, Kankuro's chin fell off.
"So could you show us the Moonwind?" Temari asked excited.
"Why of course, this is why you're here. " the old man said, then he started to walk between two center bookshelves.

Gaara was surprised, as the sand covered him. He let himself be fully covered, then used a simple jutsu to turn the sand on his side, and started to control it. But the lighter side of the sand didn't want to obey. Gold Dust. Only one person can manipulate gold dust. Gaara thought, as he tried to keep up the balance and control the rest of the sand. Slowly the pressure hot lighter, but it wasn't a relief for Gaara, because the temple started to sink in the sand.
"What?!" he exclaimed, as he noticed.
He let the sand fall on the ground, then making some signs with his hand applied a jutsu, pressed his hand to the wall of the temple, slowly sand covered the wall too, and tried to keep it up. It seemed the sand and the gold dust on the ground was stronger, then Gaara's and his sand's grip, and the temple continued to sink.
"Dammit!" Gaara grumbled, as he forced himself to concentrate more, to be able to somehow keep the temple up. I have to keep it up. If the entrance of the temple gets buried in sand, Temari and Kankuro will get stuck in the temple…Why couldn't they hurry?!
Temari and Kankuro silently followed the old man, when suddenly the temple started to tremble so much, they fell off of their feet.
"What's happening?!" Temari asked worried.
"I don't know why….but the temple started to sink…" the old man replied also with a worried face.
"It's not our fault! We have clear souls!" Kankuro excused.
Gaara tried his best to keep the temple up, he concentrated just on the massive building, but suddenly a shuriken slipped very close to his cheek and tabbed into the wall. Gaara's eyes widened, blood started to flow down on his cheek. He turned his head at a side to see what's happening behind his back. A group of ninjas were approaching him, with weapons. They didn't seem to come to help at all.
