AHHHH! Not Again. This one is also very short! It just looked so much longer when I wrote it by hand and when it typed it up. Oh darn. Well please enjoy chapter 3.

The Kazekage gently set the injured girl against a tree. He quickly set up camp and brought out his medical kit. Why the hell am I even bothering? I don't even know her. he thought to himself. The girl's breathing was slow and she had a fever. He put the girl on his bed and took her jacket off so he could treat her wounds. She had a lot of injuries but he only focused on the more important ones; a deep cut on her left arm, which was bleeding through the thin bandages that were already poorly wrapped around it, a stab wound on her side and an injury on her right thigh. There was also a large gash across her nose. He placed a bandage across her nose and cut off the bandage around her arm. He cleaned the wound and stitched it up, then recovered it in fresh bandages. He lifted her shirt up to get to the stab wound in her side. He blushed as her cleaned the cut. He quickly stitched up the cut and bandaged it as quickly as he could. Finally, he slipped her shorts off to inspect the wound on her leg. He blushed even more. I really hope she doesn't slap me for this later...if she even lives that is. Temari and Kankuro must never find out about this. Oh, what would they say knowing that I undressed an unconscious, young girl? It's not without a good reason but they would never believe me. I would never hear the end of it. He quickly treated the injury, blushing the entire time. The Kazekage then wrapped the girl in his blanket and made himself a bed out of sand. He stayed next to the girl so he could check on her during the night.

He looked into the sky with his pale, gray-green eyes. After a while he turned to his side to see the girl. He starred at her for a while. Her long black hair had a purple gleam to it in the light. She was also very pail like him. Her features were sharp and almost cat like. She was good looking, even with the large white bandage on the middle of her face.

The girl stirred. The Kazekage propped himself up on his elbow, ready to restrain her if needed. The girl just took a deep breath and then was calm. The boy got up a got a wet rag which he placed on the kunoichi's forehead. Then he lay back down on his bed. He stayed up the entire night watching the girl. Going without sleep was something he was use to.

He got up early the next morning and checked on the girl. He fever had broken and she was breathing steadily. Although he did not want to leave the girl alone, he went back to see the village. A sand clone was left behind to watch over the girl in case any of the men who attacked the village found the camp or, if by some chance she woke up. There was not much left of the small shinobi village. Most of the buildings were burned down and there was no sign of any survivors. He picked up a shinobi headband and brushed ashes of the metal piece on the front. A small volcano was engraved in it. There was nothing left at the village so he headed back to camp, leaving the headband tied around a burnt tree. The girl stirred as the boy returned to his camp. All of a sudden she bolted upright. She yelped in pain from the movement and clutched her side. The Kazekage got up quickly and ran over to her. He laid her back down to the ground.

"Where... where am I? Who are you?" she asked. Her speech was slurred like she wasn't fully awake.

"Relax. My name is Gaara, you're safe now."

The girl sighed and closed her eyes. "Tobi..." She mumbled, before quickly falling asleep.

What happened to this girl? I'll just have to wait and see. Who knows, maybe she might be able to tell me what exactly happened here.
