A/N: In this Chapter, we get to see a little Temari. I know she's a little OOC but that's what happens to the Great Wind Charmer after mother hood. She can still be her old self when provoked (as in my 3rd story, I'll my second then my third after I'm done with this one) But as always, Gaara can get mad very quickly. A little love interest, a little anger, and a new Sensei I made up. We also get to find out a little of what the New Sharingan can do. I really like this chapter. Please tell me how I'm doing!!

Chapter 6

We didn't have training again today so I got to sleep in. At least I thought I was allowed to.

"Nadeshiko, there's a cute Uchiha outside who's asking to see you." Said Shuhan as she plopped down on the end of my bed.

"Chikusho. Can't I sleep in for once?" I asked as I opened my eyes.

"I won't let you if that hottie Uchiha is outside." Bitto said as she pushed me off my bed.

"Does Bitto have a crush on the enemy?" I giggled as I readjusted my hair.

I peeked outside the window and looked at him pacing back and forth like he had waited all day. I pulled on something that was clean. It was hard to find something because I had neglected to wash anything I had brought. I pulled on my Hourglass more out of habit then anything. I rushed downstairs.

"Hey Mom, can you wash, my clothes? See ya." I said before she could answer back. I walked out the door and bumped right into Arata.

"Sorry, I just woke up." I said as I had my sand balance me.

"That's cool. I was thinking maybe we could go to the Dumpling shop." He asked hopefully.

"That sounds cool." I said as I looked at his white eyes with the famous Sharingan tomoe.

We walked to the dumpling shop and sat down. We ordered some dumplings and just kinda sat there. I grabbed some of my sand out and played with it. The dumplings came. I grabbed one and chewed. Then I grabbed another. I just realized how hungry I was. I hadn't eaten since 4:00 yesterday. What was it now?

"It's 11:00 AM." Arata said.

"Thank you. That's such a coincidence. I was just wondering what time it was." I replied grabbing another dumpling.

"It's not a coincidence. The old Sharingan almost allowed you to read peoples mind it worked so fast but the new one does." Arata answered. I looked at him amazed as he went for a dumpling.

"Total invasion of privacy, I know. I don't have to. I just wanted to know if your mind actually works as quickly and complexly as most people say it does." He finished.

"Well La-ti-da." I giggled grabbing yet another dumpling.

A falcon flew in and landed by me. I had my sand untie the message so I could keep eating. I looked over at it.

"I gotta go. Apparently Kazekage-sama is going to make this a grudge match between us. He got a legendary ninja to train me. I'll see ya around hopefully." I said standing up and putting down the dumpling I was eating.

I rushed out and turned the corner and bumped into Otokage-sama.

"Sorry." I said bowing and rushing off to training ground number 3.

"I'm sorry Gaara-sama. I was eating dumplings with someone. I'm really sorry I couldn't get here earlier." I panted out of breathe from running here.

"With whom?" Gaara-sama questioned.

"Arata Uchiha." I muttered as a light blush began to form on my cheeks.

"You mean your opponent. He is very powerful. I bet he could figure out all of your jutsus and the way you think just by talking to you. I don't think you should see him again. Well actually that won't be a problem because I have gotten Matsudai Itonami. She specializes in a certain Jutsu area. Now I want you to go back and go pack your things and say goodbye because you are going to go train with her until the next round." Gaara-sama said. "I have very high hopes for you. You will be great in this area because you have a will of fire that I didn't."

"Is this what you meant when you were talking to Sasuke-sama?" I asked.

"Yes. You will bring a lot of pride to the Sand Village. You are destined to be one of the greats along with Shuhan and Bitto. That's why I want you to learn a new area of Jutsus so you can beat Arata. That's the first step to becoming great." Gaara-sama finished while he ushered me off to go collect my stuff.

I ran to my apartment.

"I finished your clothes but you owe me big time girly!" my mom smiled as she folded some of my clothes. I scooped them into my bag.

"I got a mentor and I have to go train with them until the Chuunin exams. See ya when I see ya!!" I said as I finished dumping my clothes into my bags and gave my mom a hug.

I ran down the stairs and gave a group hug to Shuhan and Bitto.

"Off to month long training. See ya!!" I whispered in their ears.

I had my sand carry my stuff and set off for the training ground I was just at.

"What's with the stuff? Are you too scared to fight me so you're running away?" Arata said as he jumped off the roof of a building.

"Actually I have training. I won't be back until the exams. I guess I won't be able to see you." I said realizing that I really will have to say good bye to Arata.

His eyes twinkled with sadness. He gave me a hug.

"I'll miss you. I wish we could've spent more time together." He stopped the hug that I wish would never end. Then he kissed me.

"NADESHIKO! What are you doing?" Gaara-sama said.

"I was saying good bye?" I said as I pulled away and started to blush. Gaara-sama was going to murder me. He just told me to stay away from Arata.

"I'll be here when you get back." he whispered in my ear. He gave me one last peck on the cheek. I really would miss him.

"Sorry Kazekage-sama. I was just saying goodbye. I'm ready to go now though. So what type of technique do I get to learn?" I said.

"Forbidden Jutsus that can change the course of history even if you do one thing wrong." Matsudai finally said.

Her voice was like gravel, smooth and rough at the same time. She was old but looked like she has beaten time herself.

"I will show you when we get where we are going." Matsudai finished. We trekked through a forest and finally got to a grass area in the middle of the forest.

A/N: Next Chapter, Nadeshiko gets to train for the next month. I'll put Chapter 7 and 8 out at the same time because they're both kinda short. I'll update tomorrow. No probably the next day because I won't have eyes anymore from reading Harry Potter 7 all night!!! Cue happy squeeing!!! Please tell me how I'm doing!!
