Chapter 4
One Week Later
'I hate hospitals more now than I ever have before' I thought as I sighed and stared at the ceiling. 'I am so BORED, I swear, if someone made something explode I would kiss them' I waited for a few minutes and sighed "Stupid people in this stupid hospital don't care if their patients are bored out of their mind; suicide is even looking good right now." I muttered and looked out the window. It was raining, so people were all inside, giving me absolutely nothing to do, which was pissing me off more than anything right now. I sighed and decided and decided to check my ankle, from what Angin said, my ankle was already healed, the only problem was no one believed me when I told them this. "Stupid people" I muttered and swung my legs out from under the covers and lightly placed my feet on the cold floor that sent shivers down my spine. I got up and went to the closet to get my clothes, I didn't care if they were tattered and torn or not, I just wanted to get out of the hospital clothes. I entered the bathroom and quickly changed and headed towards the door. I first looked out the window to see if anyone was coming, that I could see from the tiny window, and slowly opened up the door and looked both ways before heading towards the exit. Once down the first flight of stairs I saw that the receptionist was still on duty. I cursed under my breath and decided I could use the much needed chakra exercise. I calmly walked up the wall and onto the ceiling and walked towards the door before jumping down and landing on my feet and running out the door as the receptionist yelled at me to get back into my room.
Once I finally made it to the hotel I was relieved, and soaking wet. I went inside and went directly to Gaara's room. I knocked twice before waiting for him to answer the door.
"What do you-" He cut himself off when he seen he smiling and waving at him. He gawked at the sight of the soaking wet body in front of him. I heard some noises downstairs and I could've sworn I heard my name being said a couple times.
"I got way to bored at the hospital, and my ankle is fine see" I stuck it out and twisted it a couple of times "No pain at all, so Gaara, please. SAVE ME FROM THE EVIL NURSES FROM THE HOSPITAL FROM HELL!" I said. He looked at me as if I were insane before we heard footsteps coming closer to where we were he then dragged me inside before using his sand to suck up the puddle of water I had left on the ground and shut the door quickly. He went to his dresser before grabbing some clothes and handing them to me. I smiled and kissed his cheek and went into his bathroom to change. I came out in dry clothes and fell onto his bed. His shirt was a bit big for me, but the pants fit in length, but were a tad big near the waist. I sighed. "Gaara, I'm bored"
"What am I supposed to do about it?"
"I don't know… you wanna train?"
"It.is.raining… baka"
"But I'm bored" I whined
"Find something to do then"
"Fine" I got up and walked to my Kage. I looked over his shoulder to see him doing paperwork. I smirked evilly. I poked him
"What?"
"Nothing, just doing something" He sighed as I continued to poke him. After five minutes of this he attempted to grab my hand, I kept it out of his reach and he began to chase me before pinning me down on the bed.
"Stop poking me"
"How can I poke you when you have my hands pinned" I said
"Good point" He said as he leaned down and gently placed his lips on mine right as the door busted open
"Gaara, Kaze escaped from the…. Oh um, never mind… I will be leaving now." Temari said as she slowly exited and closed the door behind her. Gaara and I glared at the door. He then looked down at me and leaned down for another kiss when we heard Kankuro's voice say
"No way, I have to see this for myself" before the door way busted open… again. Gaara and I let out an angry sigh before I got up from under Gaara and knocking Kankuro unconscious and dragging him out into the hallway. BR BR BR
"The next person you interrupts will DIE" I yelled before closing the door. I let out a frustrated breath and pulled my hair a bit. I flopped down beside Gaara. "I hate your siblings" That comment make Gaara chuckle which made me smile. I put my arms around him and got closer until our foreheads touched. "Usually I don't go for guys younger than me, but I'll let you be the exception." I said before pulling him into a passionate kiss.
We had a long make-out session before Gaara grudgingly went back to his paperwork, and I was forced to find something else to keep me away from boredom. It didn't take long till I started playing with Gaara's hair and styling it different ways and using my control of air as hairspray. At one point I got a hold of some bows and started putting those into his hair but had to stop when he looked at me to give me the 'Continue-to-do-this-and-die' look, and I couldn't help but crack up laughing. I ended up taking out all of the bows when I remembered that Kankuro was still unconscious.
"Hey Gaara"
"No, you can not play with my hair anymore"
"I wasn't going to ask that, I was going to ask you if that ink you are using is permanent or not."
"It is… why?"
"Kankuro is still unconscious in the hallway and what better way to use that ink then revenge." I said rubbing my hands in an evil manner
"You know, you are too much of a distraction" He said before standing up and grabbing another brush and handing it to me "But a distraction I desperately need to keep myself sane" He added. We went out into the hallway and dragged the unconscious Kankuro back into the room and began to wipe his face paint off and adding our own. I made flower designs on his face while Gaara wrote Aijin (mistress) on his forehead and jin-saseko (man-whore) across his right cheek. After the ink was dry Gaara helped me roll him onto his back before tapping more points onto his meridian. He woke up and got up with the help of the two of us before turning around to say thanks before exiting the room. Once the door closed we started laughing our heads off and fell to our knees and used each other's shoulders as a support so we wouldn't fall over.
"Okay, let's do Temari now" I said as I began to drag him over to Temari's room for our revenge.
The Next Day
Needless to saw, after our revenge, Temari and Kankuro decided to knock, always, before entering the room. That morning I had made Gaara come with me to tell Raikou and Kasai that we were going out, in response to this they had treated Gaara pretty badly until I told them that he was the container for the one-tailed demon Shukaku, which gave them immediate respect. The also seemed in awe at the fact he was a Kage at such a young age and accepted him as if he were their younger brother.
Raikou and Kasai treated the two of us to ramen and began making rules for Gaara.
"If you ever hurt her, we will find you and hurt you three-fold"
"Touch her in a way she doesn't want to be touched and we will KILL you"
"Guys I am eating" I interrupted
"Make her mad and you will deal with her wrath, we will not save you"
"Cheat on her and you will deal with us, then her wrath"
"Enough you too"
"Lastly-"
"WILL YOU TWO SHUT UP?!" I yelled, finally getting their attention "Thank you, now if you'll excuse us, Gaara and I have training to do" I said dragging Gaara out of the ramen bar and apologizing profusely for their idiotic behavior.
After hours of training we both came back to the hotel considerably more beat up than when we had when we left.
We both collapsed on Gaara's bed and fell asleep in each others arms, yes above the covers.
We awoke some time later to knocking. I groggily got up, careful not to wake Gaara and opened the door while rubbing my eyes, I had not expected to be pulled out of the room and a gag put in my mouth as my hands were tied behind my back and myself being placed in a bag and thrown over someone's shoulders. I struggled against my restraint and attempt to undo the knot. It was not working so I went to find a kunai or a shuriken, anything. I growled, I had not even noticed when they disarmed me. I then remembered my fans and clashed my fist in a way to release the trigger. I quickly opened the fan and set to work on cutting the rope. After my restraints were successfully cut through I got the gag out of my mouth and put the fan back in its hiding place. 'The hidden fans were a very good idea' I thought and thought carefully on my next move. I had not gotten a good look on my abductors, which wasn't very good. I also did not know how far away from Konoha we were now, which made my situation worse. I sighed again. Before focusing more on a plan to get out of this mess rather than on the situation I was in now. I did a few seals and created a weightless clone before triggering my fan and making a quick slice in the fabric. I put my fan back in its hiding place yet again before doing numerous seals and lifting myself in air and making my clone no longer weightless at the same time. I slowly made my way out of the cut in the fabric before hiding my chakra and getting onto a tree branch quickly. I let out a sigh of relief before going in the opposite direction my captors were going. I ran at top speed back in that direction praying that it would lead me to Konoha.
The Day of the Finals
How I made to Konoha was beyond me. I made my way to the stadium in my tattered, ripped, torn, worn out outfit, desperately needing a shower and a change. I decided against it, arguing with myself that my outfit was just going to get more tattered and torn, and I was going to get dirty anyway, what was the point in changing and taking a shower. (AN: Yes they did have showers in that time, don't believe me? Watch the episode where Orochimaru goes to see Tsunade for her to heal him; it's in the beginning, where you see his arms bleeding and the blood mixing in with the water and whatnot) However, I did need new weapons, so I made a little side-trip to the weapons shop and bought new shuriken and kunai, and new holsters for them as well. I then made a bee-line for the stadium. Luckily I wasn't as late as I thought I was. In fact, by the sight of me people gasped. I guess people didn't think I was going to show up, or maybe it was my appearance that shocked them, I don't know, nor do I care.
I was a little antsy; you would to if all you had to eat for about a week were what little berries you could find, and what little sleep I had gotten, because I was constantly on my guard for my kidnappers to try and capture me again. I was craving for real food, but that would be my reward for after the finals. I took deep breaths to try and calm myself. It didn't necessarily work.
My match was the third one. So I got to watch two matches while my nerves were on high. I swear, if someone so much as said hi to me I would jump about five feet in the air. I huddled in the corner and acted very unlike myself. I didn't want to talk to anyone right now and my stomach kept growling. This caught the attention of both Kasai and Raikou, who both slowly approached me and handed me some no-mess, no prep food. I took it and thanked them in my squeaky voice and inhaled it and drank the entire canteen that was handed to me. That's when the questions arose. I stayed silent, but had enough energy to at least observe my opponents, watching for any new moves they had created, but was completely exhausted and I knew that if I got the first round I would be lucky. I sighed. I hated my life.
My battle finally came up and I stumbled down the stairs a few times. When the battle started I went as far away as possible and began long-range attacks, hardly any hitting my target.
"D.amn it! I need my f.ucking sleep!" I said angrily to myself as I threw more kunai and shuriken at the ten year old genius kunoichi. I growled as they once again missed. My vision began to get blurry and I cussed under my breath. I felt faint, and I leaned against the wall behind me to get some kind of bearing….
I opened my eyes to find myself in front of Angin's little prison
"I need your help, I haven't slept in at least a week, I haven't had a nutritious meal in I don't know how long, and all I want to do is sleep."
"Sleep, I will take over your body"
"Don't kill my opponent"
"I won't" He said as I felt the tables being turned and I was inside the little prison and Angin on the outside. I sighed and collapsed on the floor of the sewer; asleep instantly.
No Ones POV
Kaze leaned on the wall after another failed attempt at hitting her target with kunai. She slumped to the ground and many thought she had fainted. However, all such thoughts were thrown out the window when an enormous amount of chakra came out of no where, all concentrated on one form- Kaze. She stood up, and looked her opponent in the eye, scaring the ten-year-old genius instantly. Her usual dark, cheerful eyes were a silver color, and the pupils were slanted, much like those of a cat's. But her eyes were not the only thing that scared the girl, there was also the fact that she had grown fangs, and an odd design cascaded elegantly down from the bottom of her left eye down to the middle of her cheek. She had an other-worldly appearance. She walked closer to Hinabi, and the ten year old girl walked backward until she hit the wall. Now that Kaze was out of the shadow, people could clearly see her chakra in the form of a fox, with one tail swinging dangerously behind her, much like that of Naruto. Her silver chakra shell just begged the little girl to attack, almost mockingly.
"Well, I'm waiting" Kaze said, only, it wasn't her voice, it was more masculine, and sent chills down the horrified Hinabi's spine. The audience was eerily silent as they watched on. No one knew how to react. Kaze walked closer to the genius and knelt in front of her and whispered in her ear. "I am not going to use my full power to fight you; my container was just too exhausted to fight you, so I get too." When Kaze seen that these words did not soothe the terrified girl he added "I will make sure you will not be severely hurt, my mission is to spread peace, not create chaos, unless it is the form of harmless pranks" she added, giving the girl a sweet smile. "Now come, let's see what secrets you have in store for me, Hyuuga Hinabi" Kaze added and helped the little Hyuuga to her feet before jumping back and getting into a fighting stance.
That was when the battle finally began. Little Hinabi rushed Kaze and tried to inflict damage to her chakra flow while Kaze dodged effortlessly. Soon Angin could feel his container waking and jumped and landed sideways on the wall of the stadium
Kaze's POV
"Have a nice nap?" Angin asked
"Yeah, I feel much better, thank you. Did you hurt-"
"No, I didn't even touch her" Angin said. Kaze let out a sigh of relief. Her stomach growled. Angin laughed. "Here" he said as he touched her forehead with his nose, she was no longer hungry. "Now go win that battle" He said
I found myself suspended side-ways on a wall. 'Okay…' I thought to myself. Just as Angin said Hinabi looked fine, not a scratch on her pale skin. I jumped down and got into my regular fighting stance.
"Ready?" I asked. She looked surprised
"You're normal?" She asked
"Yep, and your worst nightmare" I said as I rushed her. I attempted to get her in her median point but I ended up having to dodge her attack. 'Dang it, not good' I thought as I jumped back to find a different approach. I smirked I did a few rushed seals before triggering my fans, opening them both and swinging them at the Hyuuga. A small tornado of wind was the result causing the Hyuuga to get far away from me. "Okay, that's enough distance, I just hope this works" I muttered and turned towards the wall and ran up as far as I could go before putting my fans into my sash to do some seals: dragon, horse, boar, dog, snake rat, ox, and lastly, rabbit, and I felt the familiar burning sensation on my legs telling me I had gotten extra speed. I grabbed my fans out of my sash before jumping off the wall and using the fans to get me closer to my opponent. Once close enough I put my fans away before doing more seals: ox, rabbit, dog, horse, and ram. I yelled "Kaze Soushi: Shippou Tama (Wind Element: Silver Bullet). I spun to the ground at a high speed and this caused little Hinabi to run as far as she could away from me, which was exactly what I wanted, I flew into the ground and sensed her chakra before changing my direction and using my velocity to further myself into the ground. Once the jutsu had no more oomph I stopped and used my condensed air punch to push myself up through the earth, and ended up punching Hinabi. I started to breathe heavily while Hinabi wheezed. She soon collapsed from lack of chakra. I fell to my knees trying to regain my breath as the audience cheered me on. After regaining my breath I stood and went back to where the other contestants were. I sat there watching as the first round finally came to an end. The six remaining contestants were, yep you guessed it, Yurasu, Mizu, Yuki, Kasai, Raikou, and myself. I watched lazily as Raikou fought Mizu, I had no doubt who would win after I saw his lightning attack, Mizu had no chance. She was carried away on a stretcher. Yurasu and Yuki's fight was surprising though. Who would've thought that Yurasu had gotten so talented in such a short time! He also seemed to become more heartless, for he almost killed Yuki. She had multiple broken bones and massive internal bleeding. Soon after that horrid display of 'friendship', Kasai and my battle was up. I got into a fighting stance. Once the Procter said go I went to charge Kasai when he raised his hand.
"I give up" I stopped in my tracks and stared at him in shock "I already fought her and I know I have no chance in ever winning, so what's the point in trying?" He winked at me "Good luck Kaze"
Since I didn't have a battle, Raikou and I were up next. Like Kasai he raised his hand after the battle started and gave up.
"After I heard what you did to Kasai I have no chance as well. Beat up Yurasu real good for me ne?" He said, winking at me as well as he walked off the stadium. Yurasu came down and took Raikou's place and we both got into our fighting positions. When the Procter said start Yurasu slammed his hands into the ground making blocks of earth come up from the ground. I had to jump multiple times to keep from being squished. I resorted to creating hardened air for myself to walk on and try to come up with a plan as I dodged the boulders flying at me. I wiped off the sweat and dirt mixed together on my forehead to keep the horrid mixture from going into my eyes. I was losing confidence in winning this match fast.
"What to do, what to do?" I asked myself as I mussed up my hair as I closed my eyes and try to think of something-anything to use against Yurasu.
"COME ON KAZE" I heard someone from the audience say. I looked and saw that the person was Naruto, waving his arms like an idiot "YOU CAN DO IT DATTEBAYO!!" I smiled at him. I looked down at an annoyed Yurasu. This guy was the guy who made my life a living hell, the best I could do was do something that I could use against him to return the favor… like getting beat up by a girl. I smirked. I had the perfect plan… now, the question was how to execute it?
