Chapter 6

Wish

Meeting the Kazekage

-----------------------

Recap:

… She shook her head slightly, letting that thought roam around her brain. MaiAki, started to help mike as well.

"We can make it too sand in at least an hour if we run as fast as we can't.. I know we can do it." Alix's voice was small, barely audible.

"It takes a day to get there though.."

"Were going to get there in an hour."

-------------------------

MaiAki and Alix managed to make it in less than an hour. It was physically impossible, but when your mind is focused on one thing that is too dear to you, there is only one thing to do -- help them. They had problems trying to get through the gates, they Shinobi was suspicious and wasn't letting them in, earning a punch in the face from Alix.

With both Shinobi on the ground, stunned at the sudden, yet hard impact from the small female, the trio left, bounding over the wall itself, and onto the ground. The heat was slowly starting to make it's way through Alix's MaiAki was already complaining, but they weren't stopping. Alix glanced around the area, trying to find at least one person right this second; finally she spotted a child running in front of them, quickly, her hand shot out and grabbed the child lightly around her shoulder.

"Where's the hospital…"

"Down there!" The child pointed towards the left, where at the end of the road was a rather large looking building. She nodded her thanks to the child, then both ran off. Mike was slowly starting to gain consciousness, even though he lost enough blood already. His voice was trying to crack through, but it wasn't working - he thought he was dying slowly.

------------------------------

MaiAki and Alix sat in a chair, Alix's eyes downcast, her hair covering her eyes. MaiAki was just silent, watching the window that lead over the large desert. She sighed softly, letting her bloody fingers run through her hair, ignoring the dried blood for now.

Footsteps were heard, but neither girl turned their head to see who it was. They weren't bothering with it right now. If it was someone important, they can burn in hell. Alix's hand moved to her forehead, rubbing it lightly. The footsteps came to a stop in front of her two, one blocking MaiAki's vision with black clothing causing her to look up and see who it was.

Who she saw was a man, dressed in black, with a symbol in the middle of his chest. Purple face paint covering his face. '..Purple face paint… what the hell?' Her eyes traveled over to the large bandaged thing on his back, her eye brow raised in question.

Next, standing to him was a female with four pigtails, green eyes, and holding a large fan. Her kimono cut short - like a skirt - and an obi tied around her of the color red. ( A/n: I think it's red anyways… )

And beside her was another male. Arms crossed over his chest and glaring at her. She shivered lightly at the intenseness of his eyes. They were so cold, and emotionless; they scared the hell out of her. His red hair was messy, but looked good either way. Her eyes traveled to the Kanji on his forehead, indicating it was 'love'; confusing her somewhat. His clothing, brown, with a white sash going over her shoulder, around the large gourd on his back, and hanging in front of him.

"Who are you?" The female was first to speak, Alix still not moving from her spot as MaiAki stood up.

"Were from the Hidden Village of Azure, We were attacked, and needed to bring our comrade here for help. My name is MaiAki…" She bowed politely. "And this is Alix." She waved her hand towards Alix. All three eyes looked towards her.

"What?" Alix's voice was cold, something that wasn't usual. She was both pissed off at herself and the ninja's that left Mike like that, they were going to pay. Slowly, she raised her head, eyes catching glimpse of brown, then moved up to lock onto jade eyes. She wasn't backing down from someone glaring at her - not right now at least.

"Who attacked the ninja's at the gate? That was pretty awesome." The male with purple face paint said, grinning, then earning himself an elbow in the gut. (A/n: Kankuro and Temari, most likely OOC… maybe Gaara too..)

MaiAki laughed nervously. "Alix Happened to do that, though I'm sure she didn't mean too." Her eyes looked towards Alix and seen her glaring with the male standing in front of her. She kicked her leg lightly to try and get her to look away from him… it wasn't working.

"Of course I did." Alix paused, then stood up, still glaring at the man. "We still don't know who you are, it's only polite to tell us."

"Oh, Right. I'm Temari, this is Kankuro and this is Gaara - The Kazekage." Temari pointed to herself, then to the other's, smiling lightly.

Alix snorted. "Aren't you a little young to be Kazekage?"

Gaara didn't make a sound, the only movement made was the narrowing of his eyes.
