Chapter Two- A Monster in the Sand?

Gaara~
A full moon greeted the monster. All the villagers were inside there homes. They didn't know his hurt or

the constant pang in his chest. They had no idea of the monster he fought at all times. The desert night

chilled him to the bone as he ran over the thoughts in his head time and time again. Yes he was a monster,

he knew it and wasn't going to hide it. What was the point? They all hated him… so why even bother

changing for them. He now embraced what he was… a monster. He live to kill… and killed to live.

Thinking of the warm blood and how it caressed his skin as he killed. It made him want to kill something…

anything. The raccoon inside him purred at the thought.

Sakura~
It had been a long journey to the village in the sand. Taking a full four days to reach. The sand blew in

the night wind raising goose-bumps on her pale skin. Finally she saw the village gates a little off in the

horizon. The guards greeted her with suspicion across their faces.

"State your name and business." the first guard said.

"Haruno, Sakura of the Village Hidden in the Leaves. Sent on here for mission as medic." the guards

eyes widened in shock. She raised an eyebrow. "Is there a problem?" she asked.

"No.. No.. No Sakura- Sama sorry… I am to escort you to the Kazekage immediately." Still in shock of

the beauty and young age of the kuchini in front of him. To say he expected her to look like this was a

severe understatement. What he expected was an old and wrinkly woman… her age made him doubt her

experience but her wasn't going to question her. Sakura followed the guard down the deserted street. She

felt eyes on her and sensed an enormous chakra behind her.

Gaara~
On the roof he saw the one he would kill. She had pink hair and was being escorted by a guard. He

wondered how hard the guard would protect her… how important she was. He began to follow them,

jumping from roof to roof making no sound.

Sakura~
"What do you want." She called out calmly, "You might as well show yourself. I know your there." The

guard began to look around to see what she was talking about.

"Sakura- Sama I assure you there is no one out ther-" he was cut off by the appearance of a red head.

The Guard's eyes went up in recognition. The boy standing in front of them was none other than the

notorious Sabuku no Gaara. He immediately stepped in front of the girl. As scared as he was he couldn't let

any thing happen to Sakura. Gaara's eyes lit up in amusement.

"I guess she is important for you to want to protect her with your life."

"What is it you want?" She demanded for the second time.

"You life of course… I want to kill you." he purred.

"Is there a reason you want me dead?" taking her place in front of the quivering guard.

"No… do I need a reason… no I do not." he said as a matter of fact.

"Haha yes you do… Who are you working for!" she said taking a fighting stance.

"No one… I'm bored so I'm going to kill you." he laughed. Never in his existence had any one

questioned him in such a matter. The guard finally spoke up.

"He is Sabuku no Gaara… he is a monster I suggest we make a run for it. He will kill you! He is the

scum under the earth." thee guard went silent again. Sakura digested the guards words. She could only

suppose this is the way everyone felt when Gaara didn't even flinch at his words.

"A monster huh?" she walked over to Gaara and grabbed his face running her hands around his

porcelain smooth skin. He had dark red hair and pretty jade eyes he was quite handsome in fact. "Funny you

don't look like a monster." she breathed. He shuddered under her touch then passed out.

Gaara~
He applauded her courage. He listened as the guard called him a monster. He was surprised when he saw

her walking toward him. Confusion swept over him as he did not see a retreating back but on walking near.

He felt her soft warm hands on his face. Leaving tingling sensations where her hands once were, Shikkaku

purred. He heard her say 'funny you don't look like a monster' then he felt her cool breath over his skin

that pushed him into a abyss.

Sakura ~
She picked up the limp body with ease. Whatever the boy ate it didn't fatten him that's for sure. He was

skinny with only hints of muscles under his clothing.

"Alright lets go see you Kazekage." She commanded.

"That was a fairly stupid Thing you did there girl! He could have killed you!" the guard was wide eyed as

she walked in off to the large building in front of her.

"Yeah could of." She said shrugging off his comment. Maybe five minutes later then entered the large

doors of the Kazekage's doors.
