Hey guys, This is the last chapter in this story. I hope you like it, please R&R

The Kazekage glared at the cloaked person walking towards him. "Halt who are you?" he demanded.

"Oh, hello Kazekage-Sama," the girl said. Gaara hung on tight to the cloak, and stayed close behind like he was told. "How are you?"

"Temari what are you doing out so late?" the Kazekage asked firmly.

"I wanted to go for a walk, but I knew I wouldn't be allowed out late so I put this on so no one would know who I was. But I guess you can tell it's me," Temari said sadly.

"Only because of your voice," he told her. She started to back towards the alley. "If you wouldn't have said anything I would have thought you were a burglar."

"Oh, well then it's a good thing I said something, I don't want Kazekage-Sama thinking I'm a bad person," she told him now right in the darkness of the alley.

"No, but you are a bad kid for staying out so late," he said.

"Sorry Kazekage-Sama, I'm on my way home now," she said sadly.

"Ok, hurry home then, I'm sure Kankuro is wondering where you are," he told her. She nodded and pulled Gaara in front of her as she turned to face the alley.

They walked slowly through the alley, Gaara in front, until Temari thought they were far enough away. "Temari," Gaara said.

"Yes?" she asked.

"Your name is Temari?" he asked.

"Yes," she told him grabbing his hand again.

"It's a pretty name," he complemented.

"Well thank you Gaara," she said as they turned down another alley.

"Where are we going?" he asked hoping for a better answer than before, but the answer was the same.

"Some place safe," she said.

After about ten minutes of dashing down alleys Gaara finally asked, "Who are you?"



Temari stopped suddenly almost making Gaara run into her. "Well I guess I should tell you before we get to the place," she said. "We are close now." Temari went and sat on a trash can. "I'm your older sister," she told him.

Gaara's eyes widened. "Older sister," he repeated.

"Yeah, and you have an older brother too. His name is Kankuro, like our dad said back there," Temari said.

Gaara's expression went sad. "If you're my sister, then how come you never came until now?" he asked crossing his arms.

"Believe me Gaara as soon as I heard I had another brother I wanted to meet you right away," she explained. "But father said you were dangerous and wouldn't let me go see you. Then he told me you were living with uncle so I felt a little better knowing that you were with family. But then a few nights ago uncle came over and was in father's office, and father ordered him to kill you." Gaara could tell she was crying by the way her voice sounded now. "And then the next day I heard uncle was dead, and if what father said was true about you being dangerous then you killed him." Gaara was crying too now, and hugging his teddy. Temari jumped off the trash can. "Then a few days after that father brought some people into his office and said he wanted them to go after you. I didn't want them to hurt you, or you to hurt them, so tonight I came to save you. I don't want one of my little brothers to get hurt, and I know you don't mean to kill people, you're a nice person." She lifted up her mask a little, to dry her face. "Well I guess we should get going," she told him.

Gaara went over to her, but instead of letting her take his hand he gave her a hug. "Big sister," he said. Temari hugged him back. Then Gaara backed off and held up his bear. "Teddy wants a hug too," he said handing it to her. Temari hugged Gaara's bear and then gave it back. "Teddy hasn't been this happy in a long time," Gaara told her.

"Well I hope Teddy and you are happy at your new home," Temari said happily. Then she took his hand and raced down the alley.

They got close to the place and Gaara stopped and pulled Temari's arm. "This is the Kazekage house," Gaara said sadly. Temari nodded. "You're taking me right to him, you want me to die!" he yelled and started to run away.

Temari caught up to him. "Gaara I don't, this is the safest place because father won't want to hurt you with me and Kankuro around," Temari explained.

Gaara stopped running. "A-are you sure?" he asked holding is Teddy tight.



Temari took off her mask. "I'm sure Gaara," she said kindly.

Gaara looked up at her kind truthful eyes. "O-Ok," he said and let her take his hand again.

When they got to the Kazekage house Temari took Gaara to hers and Kankuro's room. She opened the door happily. "Hello Kankuro!" she sang.

"What did you do now?" he asked with a sigh. He looked down from the top bed on their bunk bed and saw a scared little boy. He jumped down off the bed and went over to them. "I-Is that G-Gaara?" he asked nervously.

Temari smiled. "Yeah," she said.

"We're going to be in big trouble if father see him!" Kankuro yelled.

"No we won't," Temari said.

"Yes we will, and I don't want a little brat in our house!" he said still yelling.

"Oh come on, he is only one year younger than you," Temari pouted taking her cloak off that was overtop her regular clothes, Gaara went and sat on the lower bed. "And besides if we bug father enough he will let Gaara on our team, we only need one more."

"I don't want him on our team," Kankuro whined.

"But if we all get good training then we can be one of the most powerful teams ever!" Temari explained excitedly.

"Fine," Kankuro sighed and went back to his top bed. "But where is he going to sleep?"

Temari sighed, "Didn't you pay attention to anything father said? Gaara doesn't sleep. So at night he can play with your dolls and my fans."

"Fine, but only the old ones," he said opening a book. "And there not dolls," he mumbled.

After setting up a part in the room with a bunch of stuff for Gaara to play with the Kazekage walked in. "How long have you been back T-" he passed and saw Gaara on the floor playing. "Temari why did you bring him here!" he yelled at her and pointed to Gaara.

Temari flinched and Gaara ran and hid behind her. "I-I-I, I mean K-Kankuro and I want him on our team," Temari explained nervously. "R-Right K-Kankuro,"

Kankuro looked at her, and then said nervously, "Y-Yeah." When their father got mad at you for something all you could do was stand there and explain your case nervously.



"I-I think w-with the r-right training G-Gaara could be a v-valuable member of our t-team," Temari continued.

"So, in order to get Gaara on your team you, Temari, snuck out and brought him here. You also lied to me when you were coming home, and when you got home you convinced Kankuro to back you up?" he asked coldly. Temari nodded. "Well, since you went through all that trouble I guess I'll let him on your team, on one condition. If anyone, including one of you, dies because you are unable to train Gaara to control that demon then you are fully responsible and Gaara goes back to his old life." He told them, and then walked out of the room.

Gaara smiled. "I promise to try my hardest!" he said happily. He started to jump up and down. "I get a brother and a sister!" he said running over to Temari and hugging her, then climbing up the ladder on the bed and hugging Kankuro.

The Kazekage couldn't help but smile on the other side of the bed room door. "He will be a powerful weapon to us, and this time we will not fail in training him." He said to himself as he walked away down the hallway.

THE END
(you know how this turns out)
