That night, dreams besieged Gaara. He tossed in his sleep.

------------

He was standing in the middle of a clearing, looking up at the moon veiled in the clouds. It was fitting that they were like that. He felt that everything was obscure to him. Suddenly, there was a rustling behind him, and he turned to see a cloaked person walking to him. Upon their arrival, Gaara could see that the person was indeed female. He smiled and without a word, embraced her. The woman wrapped her arms around him in response, their body heat keeping each other warm against the nights chill. Gaara held the woman out at arms length, looking her over. Her face remained veiled by the hood of her cloak. Gaara's eyes fell a little lower to the pendant that sat on her chest, handing from a silver chain. He touched it lightly with his fingers .It was an azure pendant with silver wire wrapping up around it, joining at the bottom in a spiral. Thin white veins wound through the blue crystal. He had given it to her when they had first begun their secrecy a year before. He smiled, happy that she still wore it. Silently, the woman's hands wrapped around his hand, as well as the pendant. A smile formed on her lips.

'My love…'

Gaara looked at her, then moved his free hand up to her cheek, not removing the hood quite yet. His lips had brushed hers when there was a yell, followed by the crashing of armored boots through the forest from the direction the woman had come. Gaara immediately put himself between the noise and the woman. As he did this, several armed guard's burst from the undergrowth. Some were wearing deep azure, while others wore blood red. A soldier walked forward, adorned in a cape and a more extravagant uniform.

'By the decree of the royal King of Sunagakure, you shall be put to death for treason against the Empire!'

Gaara drew to his full height. He looked back to the woman, a sad and tender look in his eyes.

'Flee…'He said.

The woman took a few steps back, and Gaara charged forward.

Gaara sat up with a yell, his breath tearing in and out of him like he had been running. Shakily, he ran his hand across his brow. He lowered his feet to the floor. What was that? He asked himself. Who was the woman? Where was he? Was this to come, or was it in the past? Did it even exist? So many questions ran through his head. There were sudden footsteps outside his door, and two guards burst in through his door, their swords drawn.

"My lord! Is everything ok?" asked the female with red eyes and black hair.

Gaara nodded.

"Nara… Yuhi…." He drew a breath, "Go back to your posts, everything is fine…"

The two soldiers nodded, stayed their blades, and left the room. Gaara fell back onto his pillow with a sigh. It was just a dream…He told himself, just a dream…Though, part of him was still unconvinced as he drifted back off into a dreamless sleep.
