Isamu looked over the window. It's been 2 weeks since the demon (as what she prefer to call him) became her bodyguard. Right now, she hasn't started anything yet. But she does show some evilness towards him. "A little more time, I'll soon make a move. After all, I'm the Kazekage," she let out a chuckle.
She sat back on her seat and started to inspect the rough sketch of the water dam's structure. "Hmm, seems like there's a flaw here. Wait. I think, hmm… I need to see the engineer," she thought. She had better plans. She needs someone to fetch the engineer. "Why the hell would he put a statue on the side of the dam? Wait, I need to see him." Gaara is just outside the door and she don't want to waste her voice to call out his stupid (Isamu said that!) name. So she picked up a pen and threw it on the door.
It made a small tack! It opened and it revealed a poker faced redhead. "I want you to fetch the engineer of the dam," she told him without even making eye contact. The redhead turned and walked away.
"Stupid demon," she murmured. There was a knock and in came the engineer. Gaara was not with him, much to her dislike. She was planning to insult him in front of the man. "Good afternoon Kazekage-sama. What is it that you want to discuss?" he asked in a gay-ish voice. She breathed in and breathed out. "WHY THE HELL WOULD YOU WANT A NAKED STATUE OF A MAN BESIDE THE DAM?"
The man came out of the office with a pale face and he was sweating cold. Man, isn't the new Kazekage scary. Why the heck would he put a naked statue of a guy there anyway? Many kids and young people would be going there once it's finished. If they see the nude thing, err…
Gaara looked at him emotionlessly as he wobbly walked away. He sighed quietly. You were supposed to be inside, not here standing and guarding that brat. It's my duty so shut up. Sigh, demons get tired too, you know. I don't care. Hey, isn't the new Kazekage annoying? She bosses you around and sometimes throws insults at you. Aren't you mad? I do get mad but she's the Kazekage now. I can't just kill her. Maybe she got too cocky when she defeated your ass. It's your fault that you didn't give me enough chakra. Aww… hehehe... I was...Uhm, budgeting? I knew it. You're really are stupid and useless.
Gaara ended his argument with his inner demon and focused at the door. Soon, he heard another tack! He went in and saw the bratty face of Isamu. She was smirking, he knew something was up. "Gaara-san, can you please buy me," his eyes widened, "feminine pads?"
Gaara looked down at the store-keeper coldly. She gulped, "Yes, what can I do for you sir?" His voice was so cold and toneless, "feminine pads."
To avoid further humiliation, he teleported using his sand. He knocked and gave the pack of napkins to the smiling Kazekage. "Thank you for buying me," she smirked, "feminine pads." He glared at her then left.
Oh, how he wanted to crush her with sand and leave her half dead so she could feel extreme pain. He could still hear and see those people in his mind.
The kid looked fearfully to his mother. "Mommy, do guys get their period too?" The Mother hushed her child, "Shh, let's go." He wanted to kill them and erase their existence in the world.
"No! The Shukaku is getting wilder. Now he wants the demon-boy to devour napkins," whispered an old man nearby. His blood boiled and his fists clenched.
Some maidens saw him receive the napkins and obvious blushes were found on their faces. "Oh my god, let's go girls." He was near to shaking in anger.
Isamu laughed so hard that the napkins fell on the floor. "Oh! I don't even want to know the villager's reaction! Ahahahaha!!!" she collected the napkins and put them inside her drawer.
.
Isamu woke up feeling good. She smiled at the rising sun, "Hello sunshine." When she went out of her window, she saw the redhead waiting nearby. Her eyes narrowed, "He just have to ruin my beautiful day." She forced a smile. "Ohayo, Gaara-san! Did you sleep well?" she asked while waving her arm in the air. The red-headed boy merely looked at her.
Isamu walked to the streets while Gaara walked behind her. Little kids were hesitant to go near her but with one playful smile, they rushed to her. "Ohayo Kazekage-sama! Did you sleep well?" She giggled, "Of course. Knowing you were safe makes me feel worry-free. Oh, why don't you greet Gaara-san?" They looked at the cold redhead and greeted, "O-Ohay-yo… Gaara-sa-sama." She smiled as they skipped away.
Gaara glared at her back with hate while she just smiled and greeted everyone she meets. He thought angrily to himself, "If this damned routine continues, they would lose their fear of me." When she looked at her, he saw her face staring at him. "I thought you were my bodyguard," he was confused at what she's saying. "You're threatening me with your glares, Gaara-san." She told him with a pout. He resisted the great urge not to punch her pouting face.
She smiled and focused chakra to her feet. She looked up the building and ran up the wall. When she reached her window, she simply opened it and went in. "What a lazy woman," he murmured.
.
"Gaara, you go buy a huge teddy bear at the toy store. Here's the money," she commanded while looking at her newly trimmed fingernails. Gaara glared at the money then at her. She spared him a look and raised a brow, "What are you waiting for? Chunnin exams?" He looked at her with hate. "Go!" she went back on studying her nails.
Gaara appeared in front of his desk in a whirl of sand. He threw the teddy bear on her desk. She smiled, "Thank you Gaara-san. You don't know how much you've made me happy." It was full of hidden sarcasm. Gaara nearly scoffed.
"Hn," then he went out of the room. As the door closed, Isamu threw a pen on the door. Gaara slowly went back. "What?" he asked monotone. "Oh, I need some more feminine pads, if you don't mind." He clenched his fists together. No one ever as in EVER asked him to buy napkins. Not even his father. "I do mind. I'm a man, aren't you smart enough to figure out you're disgracing one of your Suna men?" he asked mockingly while crossing his arms over his chest.
Her smile was swept off her face. She quirked an eyebrow and stood up from her seat. "Oh. Aren't you alone… a disgrace?" she asked. His eyes narrowed, he can't say anything at the moment because he knows that she's right. She sighed and went back to her chair. "Well, if that is disgracing you more, then fine. Thanks a lot." He hissed through his clenched fists and disappeared in a swirl of sand.
"Aww, isn't that a hurting comeback to his ego?" she sneered at the pile of sand left on the floor. She went back at her paperworks. She read some scrolls and updated some of the village's ANBUs. She also updated the current teams and also the Jounins and Chunnins.
.
It was already evening and the air is becoming chilly. She sighed and fixed the headband she put on her hair just earlier. "Man, my bangs are longer now," she thought. She wondered if Gaara aka the demon is still outside. She tiptoed towards the door and slowly, as in slowly turned the knob.
The door creaked open and she saw him leaning against the wall. "Haven't he moved yet from there?" she asked herself mentally. Gaara was a bit taller than she was so she was slightly looking up at him.
.
Gaara heard the door creaked and when he took a glance, he saw the young Kazekage looking up at him with huge puppy-like eyes. "What the hell?" he thought. Isamu was staring at her innocently as if she had done nothing against him. "What are you staring at?" he asked in a cold grumpy voice.
Isamu blushed in embarrassment. "Darn, did he just catch me staring at him?" She cleared her throat and murmured, "Nothing… I-I.., I just checked if you were still there," her voice was so small and timid and she was stuttering. If he wasn't a ninja, he wouldn't have been able to hear her.
He sighed in annoyance, "As you can see, I'm still here. So get back inside," he murmured. "H-Hai," she immediately went in. He raised a brow in amusement. "Just what happened to her?" he thought.
She walked back to her desk and mentally slapped herself for acting so dumb. "Grrrr… He saw a supposed weakness of mine. I need to counter that! Tomorrow, I'll be meaner! Just you wait Gaara! Just you wait!"
Outside, Gaara sighed and slightly shook his head. "She's going crazy," he thought when he heard the noises inside.
