Keep It Silent

Chapter 4

So I found my brother... But, wait... didn't I kill him? Ha... So I thought. I'll let you in on what happened in this part of the story. Some things I didn't tell you were A; Gaara's uncle, Yashamaru, didn't die. He is now living with us. B; Shukaku left Gaara's vessel. He's one hyper-active demon. He tends to try to brag about being fluffy... You'll see. He's out little tanuki pet now. Haha. I guess I'll tell you the rest now, okay?

"Shaine, how've you been?" Anika asked with a smile, relieved to know her brother wasn't dead. Shaine brushed his silver hair from his face.

"Good," He started before looking at Gaara, "wait... is this your boyfriend?"

"Umm... In a way? He's my husband..."

"OH MY GOD! YOU TOUCHED MY SISTER?! THE THE HELL AWAY FROM HER YOU RED-HAIRED FREAK!!!" Shaine screeched at an un-phased Gaara.

"And it gets better! We'll show you that once we get home though." Anika said with a chagrin.

-AT THE HOUSE!-

"We're home!!!" Anika shouted out. At her voice at an instance, Shukaku came running in, right on schedule. He looked at Anika and Gaara with a toothy demon grin, and then looked at Shaine.

"Stop staring! You wish you could be a fluffy and adorable as this!" The tanuki said. This made Shaine twitch. A talking tankui-demon. A little farfetched, isn't it? Well... we'll let you decide.

Anika came back downstairs after disappearing for a moment. She held baby Ryuu close in her arms and smiled down at him. "This is your nephew, Shaine." Anika said, pulling the blanket down from over his head to reveal red hair and reddish-green eyes. Shaine seemed to smile as he looked at his nephew.

"He's perfect, you two." He said.

A few months passed. Things happened. We went to Sunagakure to visit Temari and Kanuro. They never knew Gaara was now married and that they had a nephew. It was a ... strange ... reunion for all of us. That night, Gaara and I locked ourselves in his room from his childhood. You can guess from there. In the morning, I got sick. I fgured I was pregnant again.

After the trip back home, Tsunade gave me a test. Yes, I was pregnant again. Sasuke still had been crushing over-time on me. Even if I was married. Three months into the pregnancy, I went to training. Only Kakashi, whom I had found out was my real father, knew about this secret of mine.

"Anika vs. Sasuke." Kakashi said. Anika started heading to the training field. "Go easy on Anika, Sasuke." Kakashi advised.

"Why...?" Sasuke asked in questioning.

"She's carrying." Kakashi-sensei replied simply. Wonderful! Yeah! Let's let Sasuke know I'm pregnant! I tensed up as Sasuke got a glare in his eye as he charged for the spar. Everything happened so fast... I felt a sharp pain through my stomach. Blood dripped from my mouth as I fell to the ground in pain. Sasuke pulled the kunai he stabbed into me out from my stomach and loomed over me. Kakashi had surprisingly been paying attention and poofed over to me, picking me up, and glared at Sasuke before poofing to the hospital.

-HOSPITAL-

"Gaara," Tsunade started, looking at her chart, "Anika..."

Gaara looked up at Tsunade in worry. "Whay about her? She'll be fine, right?" Tsunade nodded.

"She'll be fine. But... the baby... she's lost it. It died during the spar match when Sasuke connected the kunai into her stomach..." Tsunade said, holding her chart close to her body. Gaara tensed up. "I'll leave you two alone..." With that, the woman left.

"DAMN IT, SASUKE!!! I'LL FUCKING KILL YOU!!!" Gaara shouted out in anger, slamming his fists onto the table. Anika stirred, and awoke to the yelling. "Gaara-kun...?" Gaara turned his eyes to his wife and hugged her close. "Are you okay...?"

"Yes... I'm fine. I heard shouting. What's going on?"

"Well..." Gaara started...
