Sorry for all the screw ups, I'm still learning to use all this stuff. If you don't like my writing I'm sorry. I know it kinda sucks but I'm trying as hard as I can, which might not be good enough for some people out there. If it really sucks meaning I have no writting talent what so ever tell me so I don't keep tormenting you all.

Chapter 8

Gaara's POV

I stopped mid-stride. "I have this strange feeling that something is wrong." I looked around for some irregular behavior, but everything seemed in order. 'Maybe I should go check on Sara. Wait, why should I care if she's okay? I mean she's just some annoying girl that followed me home and won't leave me alone. Bt still I have been gone awhile…maybe I should head back.' I turned around and began to stroll back.

Sara's POV

I opened my eyes slowly. I groaned as my head pounded. "That was stupid. Why did I expect Gaara to come waltzing through the door and save me? Even if he were there, he wouldn't have really helped. It was my fight and he wouldn't want to interfere. He probably sees me as this weak, little, annoying, and stupid girl anyway. Now I'm gone and he's probably happy. But if that's what makes him happy I'm glad. That's all I ever wanted to make him happy." I looked down at myself. My feet were chained to the floor and my hands together, above my head. I sat on a hard stone floor. I was dirty and my clothes a little ripped. My head felt like it had stopped bleeding but was now covered in dried blood. I had a headache but was no longer in any danger. I looked at my surroundings. I was in a cell with large iron bars. Across the hall was another cell, so it was a dungeon. I heard footsteps becoming louder as the dim lights flickered on. I heard a jangle of keys and I saw a cloaked figure come to my cell door. He opened it. "Gaara?" I whispered with hope. The figure gave me a cruel laugh. "Sorry sweetie, Gaara's not here to save you quite yet." He knelt before me. "What do you want with me?" "Well, using you as bait we are going to draw Gaara out and force him to do us a favor. In return he will get your safe return." "Don't be a fool. Gaara dose not care about me enough to walk into such an obvious trap just to see my safe return. You're just wasting your time." "Well let's hope he comes and rescues you, because otherwise you will have a short life." He drew out a needle filled with poison. My eyes grew big as he grabbed my arm ready to plunge the poison into me. I tried to move away but I was helpless. I felt the urge to scream as he injected the poison into me. " You bastard! What the hell did you do to me?!" "This poison stops chakra flow and weakens the body. It's to ensure that you can't escape." He shrugged. " I'm sorry. I'm only following orders. I didn't like this plan to begin with. I'm sorry you got mixed up in all this." He got up and left, shutting and locking the door behind him. His footsteps faded and then the lights went off. " I'm all alone in the dark again. In a strange place and now I'm going to die." A hot tear slid down my cold cheek. I hung my head. "Mother, Father. I'm lost. I'm alone again in the cold dark. I don't like this place. Please… I don't want to die alone. Why did you leave me? What did I do to deserve to die unloved, alone in this cold dark place? Why?"

Gaara's POV

I opened the front door. "I'm back." I called out, but no one answered. I looked around me. The living room and kitchen were clean and untouched. "Sara where are you?" Again, I got no response. I checked in her room. It was empty. One by one, I checked every room in the house until there was only one left. My room. I opened the door to see it in disarray. The dresser was splintered and the mirror shattered. Glass and blood covered the floor as I felt the breeze flowing in from the broken window. My bed sheets were splattered with blood and a pool of blood was near the door. I could tell that it was hers or mostly hers. 'It looks like she put up a fight against someone. So she went unwillingly. A kidnap I guess. Now the question would be who would be stupid enough to break into my house. Maybe they were looking for a fight with me and stumbled upon her.' Something glimmered near the window. I went over to it and picked it up. 'An Earth Village headband. Well guess that answers who were the idiots. I guess they want me to come after her since no ninja would leave behind such an obvious clue. And I would have to be a stupid ninja to fall into such an obvious trap. Sara is an idiot to be caught by such lowly shin obi. She followed me home and got herself into this mess. She can get herself out of it. I'm not Naruto, going into traps just to save the life of some annoying girl.'

Sara's POV

"It's been about three days since I woke up here I think. With no sun reaching down here it's hard to tell." I leaned back against the wall. "Damn this stupid poison. If it weren't for that, I would have broken out of here three days ago. I can't move I'm so exhausted." My eyes closed. "I wish Gaara would come and save me, but that is a slim chance. This is such an obvious trap he would be wary to come even if he did care enough. He's not the stupid Naruto jumping into battle without all the information." My thoughts began to fade out as exhaustion pulled me back to sleep.
