Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.
Allright, sorry for the wait! I had to plan a little more about my future plans, and I got stuck daydreaming that I stopped writing. Sorry!
Previously:
And it wasn't like Gaara.
Dragging him towards the door, and refusing to leave him, I opened the door, and stepped through, dragging him behind me.
Did you really think I'd leave you there, you humongous bastard?
Sakura's P.O.V.
As we fell through the darkness, countless memories began to come back.
When Ino left...
When Gaara comforted me...
When I first saw Sasuke...
When I tried and failed to confess to Gaara...
The memories started slipping through my wall of will, and my eyes blurred with tears.
Then Gaara's hand started slipping.
I snapped out of it, and held his arm a little firmer.
I couldn't afford to be emotional right now.
A blinding white light flashed, and my surroundings literally pulsed.
Then I was swept away towards Earth.
As I slowly woke up, I heard the sound of running water and soft conversations.
I got up quickly, wondering where I was.
It seemed like I was in a nice, quaint little home, and Gaara wasn't there.
Confused and afraid, I started to get up, when my leg gave away when I tried to stand up.
I did it again, but I couldn't stand up.
"Your body is tired from the journey between worlds Sakura-san. You must sleep. "
A pale, dark haired man spoke quietly, startling me so that I just stumbled onto my back again.
He moved stealthily forward, pushing me down so I couldn't get up.
"Gaara is fine. He's recovering in the other room and I called my Grandpa so that he can get back on his feet again after a couple of weeks. You, however, just need some sleep."
I struggled against him, but he had an iron grip, and so I soon gave up, and started bombarding him with questions.
"Why are you here? How do you know about Gaara? Who's you grandpa? Are you an angel? Do you know a man named Kakashi?"
"One at a time here, Ugly. "
I gasped.
"WHAT DID YOU JUST CALL ME? "
"Ugly."
"I am not! "
"Are too! "
"Am not! "
"Are too! "
"Will you guys both just shut up? "
Gaara's voice, a little feeble but still with the demanding tone, broke into our little conversation.
He slowly opened the door, and came inside.
"Look, Sakura, I know you're really confused right now, but I can only answer one of your questions everyday. Otherwise, I'll die from loudness."
"WELL!" I huffed, and the 2 boys laughed.
"One question, Sakura. That's it." His tone became serious again.
"Okay, fine. Then why did that guy know everything about us?"
He sighed heavily.
"Well, he's a half angel. "
My eyes widened considerably.
Half-Angels were considered lower than normal angels, and God usually sent them to Earth so that they wouldn't have to put up with the constant bullying. I had heard that other demons and angels also came to Earth to just see the changes in society, but I knew very little about Earth, other than the fact that it was almost exactly like an Angel's early years in the Heaven Academy.
"I alerted him that we were coming down to Earth, and he arranged everything. His Gramps is-" He started coughing before he could finish his sentence.
I could already see the blood dripping from his mouth, and shushed him so that I could escort him back to his room.
As I closed the door shut, the dark haired boy said,
"Gaara is over fatigued with the stress of opening a portal without permission from the Higher-Up's. My Grandpa is an angel, and he's an expert with medicine. He's coming as quick as he can, but I except that it will still take at least 4 more weeks to get him healthy again. "
I sighed.
I thought coming to Earth would be a lot less complicated.
It definitely wasn't.
First Gaara getting sick, then the news that he would be in bed for another 4 weeks, God, I don't think I can take anymore.
"Aren't you going to ask me what my name is?"
The boy asked quietly.
"Oh, yeah! Sorry! Um, so, what's your name?"
His mouth twitched a little.
"I'm Sai. "
As the electric first bonding thing happened, the front door swung open, and a silver haired man stepped out.
He glanced at us, and smirked. Or I think he did. For some strange reason, he had a mask covering his face and his right eye.
"Ooh, am I interrupting something?"
I guess that wasn't much of a cliffhanger, but this chapter is more of an informer than an actual scene.
Anyways, more reviews = more motivation!
Just saying!
See ya lates,
Allora chan
