Okay, so here's chapter 12!!! If you couldn't figure out the question from the last chapter about the paper towel...it was from Spongebob! Lol I had to put that in. Anyways..Enjoy!

Sakura woke up in the middle of the night out of breath. Glancing at the clock, she noticed it was only one o'clock in the morning. She let out a sigh and tried to get back asleep. But, after several minutes of laying there she decided to get up. Sakura walked into the kitchen when she heard a loud thud coming from the hallway where the spare bedrooms were. What was that? Sakura walked across the kitchen and to the other hallway. She stood there and listened. A few seconds later she heard it again. She walked closer and closer to the end of the hallway. The noise grew louder and louder with each step she took. When she was at the end of the hallway, she stop. The noise was coming from the room to her right. She looked and then froze. This is Gaara's room. Just then she noticed his door was opened a little and decided to peek inside to make sure everything was alright. She slowly opened the door and look into the dark room. Sakura walked into the room and looked around. Suddenly, the noise was to her right. She quickly turned around and saw Gaara smashing into the wall. What's wrong with him? Gaara then slowly fell against the wall until he was one his knees. Sakura hurried over to him and kneeled down by him. He was clutching his head and his eyes were jammed shut. "Gaara, what's wrong?"

Sakura was then slammed against the wall. She slowly opened her eyes and looked at gaara. He was pinning her to the wall by her neck and clutching his head with his other hand while his eyes where still close. Gaara slowly opened his eyes and looked at Sakura. Shukaku! "Gaara, wake up!"

"I am awake." He answered with a grin.

"No, this isn't you!"

"How would you know?"

'Oh, he got you there.' Inner Sakura mentioned.

"See. You know nothing. I should kill you where you are." He hissed.

Sakura started to panic. "What's going on!"

Sakura looked towards the doorway. Temari and Kankuro were standing there. "Gaara, stop it!" Kankuro yelled.

"You guys to, huh."

"Crap Temari. We can't stand up to him when he's like this." Kankuro whispered.

"Don't worry. We just need to get through to him. Buy Gaara some time."

"Hey, Gaara. Leave Sakura out of this." Kankuro told.

"Why? She's the one who started this." He growled.

What did I ever do?

'Who knows.'

"Please, leave Gaara alone." Sakura started to cry.

Gaara looked at her. Just then Temari ran and slammed into him. Sakura fell to the ground but quickly got up and ran over to Kankuro. Temari tried hold Gaara down but failed in doing so. Instead she was thrown against the wall. Gaara got off the floor and stood there staring straight ahead. Thinking quickly, Sakura quickly ran toward Gaara. "Sakura, no!"

Sakura ran up to Gaara and threw her arms around him. She held on to him even though he tried to get her off. "Please...Come back."

She then felt his body start shake. Sakura looked up at Gaara. His eyes were shut and his breathing rapidly increased. But then she felt his body go limp. Sakura leaned Gaara against the wall as she caught her breath. "Temari..Are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. How about you?"

Sakura nodded. "Anyone gonna ask me?" Kankuro asked.

Temari hit him over the head. "Ow, what was that for?!"

"For being an idiot!"

"Okay."

Yeah this one took awhile and its not that long either. Sorry about that. Just been busy lately. R&R Plz!
