I finally reached a place with no trees; the white raven was waiting on the stump in the middle. I dropped to my knees and reached for it. "Let me go with you…" I pleaded. The raven gave me it's blank look, and I still hoped for it to reply.

"I'll go with you even if you don't want me to!" I exclaimed as I looked for a object that could kill me. I saw a rock. I grabbed it and held it over my head. "If I hit myself hard enough, I could kill myself" I said to myself. I tried to hurry, but some sort of force was stopping me.

Finally I threw my arm down towards myself, but something stopped it. Someone had grabbed my arm; I quickly looked up to see a familiar looking man who was glaring at me. "Your alone I see, not to mention you are injured and weak, there would be no one for you to protect that raven" He said.

I looked back at the raven and tried to crawl away from the man, "NO!" I screamed. The man kicked me and I instantly fell to the ground.

"DON'T HURT HER!" I screamed.

The man laughed and looked at me, he then grabbed my hair and lifted me up and smirked. "Can't do a lot can you? Since you're weak." He chuckled.

I spit in his face and with the instant her threw my head to the ground and put his foot on my head. I screamed in pain as he started to put pressure on my head.

"You best to apologize!" he exclaimed.

I grit my teeth, "I will never apologize to a pig like you." I said.

The man then started to twist his foot and stepping on me, my skin started to burn and it hurt. I screamed in pain.

"You damn brat." He started to laugh.

I started to cry, "Just don't hurt the raven…" I sobbed.

"Ha! Funny kid, you won't be saying that, not after what I'm going to put you threw!" His foot had been removed from my head and I waited to see if he was going to do anymore to me. There was nothing then someone lightly picked me up and turned me over.

The person held me, one arm around my head and was held close to their chest, the other arm around my waist. I lay my head on their chest, the person was warm and tears started to roll down my cheeks, I knew who this was.

"Garnet-Chan…" he said.

"Lee-Kun…" I said back, I opened my eyes to see him looking at me. Tears fell onto my face, I smiled and lifted my hand and wiped away his tears. "I'm sorry." He cried,

"I'm sorry."I said.

"Garnet-Chan, I understand I am that important someone to you. I am sorry I had not realized this…" he sobbed.

I shook my head, "its okay… We are only human." I simply said.

"No it is not okay, I want you to forgive me." He held me closer.

My heart started to ache, I didn't want to see Lee like this, I didn't want to argue with him. I lifted my arms and put them around his neck, I then lifted my head towards his, I put my lips on his. Lee was confused; he froze unsure of what to do. He finally kissed me back, I stopped and looked at him, and he looked at me.

"Lee… " I said,

Lee started to blush and so did I, I felt so warm and happy.

We smiled at each other; Lee then paused and grabbed something from his pouch. He took out a dream catcher, my eyes lit up and I look at it closely. I couldn't help but to want to ask the most stupid questions.

"What is it?" I asked.

"The dream catcher I promised I would you." He told me.

I looked at him and he was smiling at me, "I promise you will never fall asleep to another nightmare again." He said as he kissed my forehead. I hugged him and buried my face into his chest, I cried. These tears were not because I was sad, but because I was very happy.

Not long after anbu black ops came by,

"Found em'" said one.

"Bring in the paramedics" said another.

Soon after medical ninja came by and took me and Lee to the hospital, we were tended and treated to our wounds. I was in the hospital for a week; Lee was in the hospital for several weeks. I came to visit him every day, as well as Sakura.

After he got out of the hospital, Lee had asked me to be his girlfriend. I said yes and from then on things had gotten better and better. What struck me odd was the raven never shown up after that day. Did it mean I wasn't going to die? It didn't matter because now I am happy.

A few weeks into our relationship Lee had taken me out to have a picnic with him.

"Garnet-Chan." He said to me.

I looked at Lee and smiled, "yes?" I asked.

He grabbed me and pulled me into a hug; he looked at me in the eyes and kissed me, then stopped and looked at me again.

"I love you." He said.

I smiled and kissed him, and then I looked at him in the eyes. "I love you too." I replied back with a smile and he smiled back at me and pulled me into another kiss.

The End
