Chapter 12
Fight and Past
As Alix left the restaurant she managed to walk into Batman and MaiAki. Taking one glance at her, she sighed, shaking her head.
"So he was right, you do look like crap."
MaiAki only looked away as Batman stood there looking between the two. He didn't feel like getting involved into personal problems, hell he didn't even know what started it… but because his MaiAki was in pain and suffering, he was going to end it.
"This is annoying me to no end, Alix." He paused for a moment, watching as she raised an eye brow to look at him in confusion. "She's been depressed to a point where she wont smile for me anymore, I want you to apologize for what you did, or said… I don't like see her this way."
Alix sighed. "What I said, is what I meant and I wont take it back. She has to understand that; but I did say I didn't know if I could trust her anymore, and that I do regret…." She heard and felt someone's aura behind her, but completely ignored them. "…But nonetheless, MaiAki, why would you be so depressed because of what I said? I mean, sure, I become a bitch at times, and I know it… my personality is also changing too, so you'll have to get used to it." she sighed softly, MaiAki now looking at her. "And, sure, I'm sorry for saying what I said, and don't even give me any shit about it…"
MaiAki only nodded, giving her signal that she understood and accepted the apology. Alix smiled lightly, before moving her hand in such a way that told the two to leave. Slowly, she then turned around, eyes narrowed slightly.
"Well, hello dear brother and father…."
------------------------------------
He sat in the restaurant, before hearing a crash of some sort. And like a swarm of flies to poop, people ran outside to see what was happening. Slowly, he stood up and walked outside to see what was going on. He caught Alix's figure, with two males facing in front of her in a defensive position. She nodded her head towards the gates to indicate that it'd be better to fight there, than where they were currently in.
He growled lightly, his eyes narrowing. If it's only thing he hated, it was males fighting women, no matter who they were, and if they were his woman… Wait, did he just think that? He shook his head ever-so-slightly then set off towards where they three had left.
-------------------------
"If it's one thing I hate, it's false love."
"Heh, but dear sister, I do love you."
She narrowed her eyes, and in a flash she had vanished from her spot, the only thing noticeable was just the sand swirling up in the air where she had once stood. Both males looked around trying to find out where she was.
"Down here."
She had launched her feet into the air, successfully hitting boles males in the chin, sending them back into the air before hitting the ground. Her 'father' decided to use a clone jutsu and appeared behind her, kunai at her throat. He smirked.
"Like usual, you lose."
"I've changed, father… I'm different."
"What?"
She smirked deadly, her eyes flashing to the chameleon color she had earlier in the morning. Her chakra was starting to become out of control, but she hadn't noticed. Elbowing him in the gut, she flipped forwards, using her hands to hold her up and wrap her feet around his neck and throw him forwards onto his back with her knee's placed dead center of his chest. She then started to make various hand signals.
Ox, bird, bird, horse, dog.. "Shikaruni Dragon No Jutsu!"
She smirked as shadows seemed to move from her body and to her adoptive father.. She had just the right amount of chakra to call out the Dragon, and it made itself known. Her being in a blinded rage didn't know her 'brother' and pulled out a kunai and threw it at her until the last second. It pierced directly through her shoulder, causing her blood lust to disappear and her eyes go back to normal. Jumping back she skidded, using her free hand to slow her down some.
Ox, dragon, bird, horse, ox, ox. "Kyuu Sendo no Jutsu"
"Shit!" This was one of the attacks she could never escape from because the jutsu itself was virtually invisible. She growled lightly, her eyes narrowing. The sand being picked up from the snake-like chakra was coming towards her. She started to brace herself, before feeling something grab a hold of her waist and pull her up into a pair of arms. She winced slightly.
"The hell?" Her eyes glanced up to the man who had saved her life… in a way. "Gaara?"
"Stand back." He pushed her behind him and eyed the two. Both of them immediately bowed, putting their foreheads on the ground.
"It was just a spare.. No intention of killing, Kazekage-Sama. We're here to add her brother onto her team, and I am the leader of their team."
Oh, this was going to be a fun night.
-----------------------------------------
"Brother and Father?"
"No… Hardly. They could go die for all I care…" She paused, her eyes looking at Gaara. "Why did you help me?"
"You were stuck there to the ground like an idiot. Because I am Kazekage, and one resides in my village, I have to protect them." She kept giving him a look that meant she was scared, but he kept talking. "I wont allow meaningless blood-shed on my lands; I have no time for a war."
She just sat there as the medics wrapped her arm. She knew she looked stupid, but hell.. She was scared.
"What?" Gaara crossed his arms over his chest, giving her his all-mighty death glare, that didn't seem to phase her in the slightest.
"…41 words… Wow…"
He sighed.
"Anyways, you should have killed them. Not like their the nicest people around anyways…." She trailed off, looking away from Gaara.
"What do you mean?"
"They deserve to die for what they put me through when I was young.."
The medic nodded to Alix, telling her to not move it around too much and left. Leaving an awkward silence in the room.
"…My family was killed when I was 5... I had roamed the streets for about a year before the Kage decided to finally put me in with a family I hardly knew. When I had turned 6... They made me into their servant in a way. Abused me and such…" She looked outside the window, she had no idea why she was telling him this, but it just felt right to let it out. "…I was a social outcast, except for the few friends I had made. But I still managed to keep smiling and having fun." she smiled weakly at the thought.
---------------------------------------
Gaara looked at her dumbfounded. She had actually gone through that much… but still she looks strong. Is this what has been pulling me to her? Or… What could it be?
Sure, he was a social outcast, killed people and assassin's that had been sent after him and became absolutely cold when Yashamaru had died and told him he never loved him. Slowly, his hand clutched at his heart. It had been a while since it hurt… since he first saw her.
That was probably why he was starting to spend so much time with her now… trying to at least, talking more and not being so cold. She was healing the wounds in his heart, and she didn't even know she was doing it. Was this love? Was this what Yashamaru had told him when he was 6?
--------------------
She saw him clutch at his heart out of her peripheral vision and looked at him. He seemed to be thinking about something important. Slowly, she slid off the hospital bed and stood up, slowly walking over to him. Still, he didn't notice her.
Slowly, she raised her hand, her fingers brushed a crossed the kanji letter on his forehead, before gasping at the sudden grasp of his hand holding her wrist tightly. She wince slightly.
"Sorry… I… Eh…" She didn't know what to say, but the glare she was receiving meant to not do it again. She lowered her eyes and looked away from him. Slowly, the amount of pressure on her wrist lessened, which caused her to look back at him.
Her eyes widened. She could see sadness run through his eyes as if she was reading a book. She gave a small smile to show she wasn't mad, sad or hurt by what he did, and the sadness seemed to melt away. Finally, he let go of her wrist and she hugged him lightly. She smirked when she felt him go ragged.
"Thanks for saving me from my 'brother's' attack…" She pulled away and smiled once again. "I should get home and sleep. Want to have lunch again tomorrow?"
-----------------------
He stood there just looking down at her, seeing as how he was taller than her. He nodded lightly. "Sure."
"Same place?" He nodded lightly and felt her hands slip off his shoulders, suddenly missing the feeling of them being there.
"I'll see you then… Alix."
He watched as she blushed, before waving and running out the door. He grinned to himself. Yes, she was the one to heal the wounds in his heart.
------------------------
"How long do you think it'll be?" A female voice filtered through to the male standing beside her as they watched inside the hospital.
"When they fall in love… she'll destroy him with what she is.." The males voice sounded disappointed… like he didn't want it to happen.
"I guess it's what's going to happen, no isn't it… They'll be many after her… poor Alix…"
The male just nodded, before the two of them vanished.
