Gaara fell out of the car with a gasp. He looked down at the ground and had a sudden urge to kiss it.
"Is that done often?" he asked, still on the ground.
Adora just laughed, "Yes, millions of people do it everyday. You know, I wasn't even going that fast, only 30 miles per hour. People go much faster, like 80 miles."
Gaara looked up at the car and scrambled away.
Adora just laughed again, "You're a ninja, you fought Kimimaro, who could bitch slap you with his own bones, and are possessed by a psychotic demon, and your afraid of a car?"
Gaara pointed at the car, "That thing is evil, ok? There's a bunch of those things bending and weaving around each other at these extreme speeds, and the noise they make!" Gaara shuddered. "Loud shrills kept coming from the other ones."
"That's called honking," she said, "And they were honking at me because I was going so slow."
Gaara took a deep breath and then pulled himself off the ground. "I just don't like it," He said looking down.
Adora smiled and patted his arm. "Hey, its ok, no more driving for now, 'kay?" she said, "Let's go inside. I'll set you up with the computer, and grab you some food."
Adora led Gaara into her house.
"While I hook up the computer, why don't you have a look around." she said with a smile, taking out her computer and unraveling the cord.
"Ok," Gaara said as he made his way throughout the house, feeling a bit odd as he did so. The house was small, but nice. It had an assortment of oddities placed here and there, such as holographic portraits and a Batmobile phone. The walls were all different colors. Vivid colors like greens, purples, and oranges. Everything was bright and cheerful. Gaara touched the beads dangling off a lamp shade as he looked at a poster on the wall. It had a leggy woman holding something in her hand.
"Le Femme Nikita," he said quietly looking at the poster.
"Ready!" Adora called from the other room.
Gaara dropped his hand and made his way to the kitchen. This room reminded him of Naruto. The walls were orange, and the big windows let in a bright cheery light.
"Okie dokie then, " Adora said as Gaara sat down on the chair next to the computer. His eyes were still wandering as he sat down, and before Adora got the chance to start her explanation on the wonders of the internet, he noticed something rather funny.
"Is that clock shaped like Naruto's head?"
Adora let out a small laugh, "Well, um, yes," she said with a shrug. "I like Naruto. I know most people think he's annoying, but I think he's the coolest little moron around."
Gaara smiled, "They make clocks of Naruto, go figure."
"Well anyways, I thought I would start you off on a news based website. That way you can get a grasp on the culture, and have a better idea of what to look up."
Gaara nodded and looked down at the computer with utter confusion.
Adora smiled and started to explain the way of the computer. After about ten minutes, Gaara felt a little more confident, and decided he would be able to take on the challenge of conquering the internet.
He started to see this world was bigger then his world. It was filled with so many different types of people, with so many different types of beliefs. Gaara found himself reading articles and having to look things up on "Google" to figure out what they were talking about. He then found more things, like "blogs" and "Youtube." In the mere hour Adora was cooking, Gaara was absorbing an entire worlds culture.
She would turn around every few minutes to make sure he wasn't having a panic attack, but for the most part he would just look back at her with wonder.
"Your world is so interesting," He said with wide eyes.
Adora laughed, "Interesting?" She said stirring something in a bowl. "Yeah, no powers, obsessed with money and beauty. So interesting."
Gaara shook his head, "No, you don't understand, there's so many people, so many different ideas and ways to do things. There's so many different professions as well."
Adora thought about this for a moment, "I supposed," she said. "Hey I was thinking," she said putting the bowl down. "How many different worlds do you think they are? Is my world dependent on yours, or yours dependent on mine? Could there be stories of my world in yours, like there is for Naruto? And also, how can you speak English, when the original story is from Japan." she thought for another moment. "You even have Liam O'Brien's voice."
"Who's Liam O'Brien?" Gaara asked.
"The voice actor for you in the American series." she said, "But seriously, there's so many things we don't know." she picked up the bowl again, "Hm, well, I'll let you get back to that and I'll finish dinner." she said as she turned back to her bowl of cookie dough.
Gaara sat there contemplating all the questions she did ask. He had no idea how to even go about answering any of them. He just kept thinking about all the people out there, in his world and hers, who had no idea about each other. And they were all so different from each other. These people didn't have Chakra, or maybe they did but they could not perform Jutsu's. Gaara started to think about this again. All these people, and not all of them were good. In fact, Gaara read some horrifying things these people did without powers.
Horrifying things they did to cute unsuspecting girls.
Gaara heard Adora humming as she put in a batch of cookies into the oven. How could she have let Gaara into her house? This big mean world was filled with psychopaths who would love to do bad, bad things to her. Gaara felt a sudden need to protect her, but really didn't know from what seeing as he was the only psychopath in the room. Well, ex psychopath, but still.
How could she have believed him so easily when there were so many crazy people out there? Just because he seemed so damn believable? He had to prove to her he was really Gaara, he had to show her his Jutsu.
"Adora," Gaara said, looking up at her.
"Hm?" she said putting down a pan of something that smelled delicious.
"Did it ever occur to you to ask to see my Jutsu?" Gaara asked.
Adora stood there for a moment, then gave a little embarrassed smile, "Yeah, well I did, but wasn't really sure how to go about asking. Dinners just about done, but why don't we see it before we eat?"
Gaara stood up to follow Adora, who was leading him to the outside door, and then it hit him.
Oh God
What if he couldn't use his Jutsu here?
Gaara stood there slack mouthed, afraid any moment Adora would be beating him with a broom or calling the cops on him.
He took about his millionth deep breath since entering this world and continued to follow her. There was no way out of it now, so all he could do was hope.
As he walked to the door, he half wondered if he was a crazy person. Just some messed up Narutard who was whacked out of his head.
When he reached the outside, there was a small flower bed next to the door.
"You should be able to get the sand out of the dirt right?" Adora asked.
Gaara gulped and nodded, "No problem," he said raising his arms.
His fears vanished as he saw the ground tremble a bit and the sand began to come out and twist its way around him. It was exactly like in his world, no different.
Adora's eye's lit up. "Wow," she breathed. "I wish I could do that."
Gaara studied her for a moment. Now that he really concentrated he could see she had no Chakra in her. It would be impossible for her to do any type of Jutsu, but Gaara didn't have the heart to tell her this right now, instead, he said "Is it time to eat now?"

Hi everyone! So I haven't written in a while, and then I did but this site was being a meany head so I couldn't post it for about four days now. Anyways, I haven't written for a bit because I was reading through like 200 chapters of Naruto. lol I am now all caught up and waiting for the next chapter, which is weird because I've never done that before. All the manga was either finished, or it was Nana and I stopped reading it. *depression* well anyways, I enjoy writing this story quite a bit and I hope you enjoy it as well!
