~VGC~
~OH! Wanna see something cool?~
~Pick a number 1-10~
~Multiply it by 9~
~If it's a one digit # keep it, if it's 2 or 3 just add the digits together~
~Subtract 3~
~You should still have a 1 digit number, change that to a letter (1=A 2=B 3=C
4=D 5=E 6=F 7=G 8=H 9=I)~
~Think of a US state that starts with that letter~
~Think of the first letter that comes to mind that starts with the last
letter of that state~

Under A Killing Moon

Yeah, that was short. But it's not the shortest I've ever read. It was good
though. I like the idea of them conflicting a little. lol. The intruder.

Chapter 33: The Arrangement

((The day after Gaara left))

Temari was busy changing the sheets of Gaara's bed. "I swear... why does he even have a bed, anyway. It's just more work for me and he doesn't even use it all that often. Ever since that girl spent the night, he hasn't slept in it once!" she ranted and raved as she ripped the blankets off and tossed them to the floor.

It wasn't as if the blond was a great house keeper. But if she didn't change them at least once every few months, her brothers sure as Hell wouldn't do it. So that was the one bit of cleaning up that she always did for the house. But as she lifted up the fitted sheets, she saw blood on the mattress, caught the slight whiff of dried body fluids. "... What the Hell?"

There wasn't enough blood to indicated that Gaara had been hurt and that in itself was a once-in-a-lifetime deal. But there was just enough for... Temari's eyes widened as she realized the truth. Her brother had lost his virginity... and taken Chikage's instead. It wasn't as if Temari was a virgin-- she'd had a little fling with Shikamaru a while back. But she covered it all up and never told ANYONE. There was no proof that she wasn't still virgin except her torn hymen-- and she sure as Hell didn't leave the bloodied sheets lying around.

'This is bad... Gaara'll be blamed for this and Chikage's definitely been affected by this. I've got to fix this... before he ends up going on a killing spree due to everyone trying to kill him!' she thought as she went to the Kazekage's office. In her brother's absence, she was acting as the Kazekage part-time. So she went through the records of all the available men in Suna and came up with a name she had never heard.

"Genma... Sakurada. Perfect. I've seen that new boy hanging around her before and he obviously likes her. I'll just make arrangements for them to get together," she grumbled. Then she sent a random ninja to retrieve the boy.

A while later, Genma entered the office. "Y-Yes?" he asked, peeking his head through. But he stopped being so shy as soon as he saw that it wasn't Gaara who had summoned him.

Temari didn't really like the boy but in a case like this, he was better than nothing. "We have a situation and I have a mission for you."

"But I'm not a ninja."

"You don't have to be a ninja to serve Suna. Now shut up and let me finish. You are going to be engaged to Chikage-- I've seen you around her and I can tell you like her."

"What about Gaara? She loves him."

"They can't be together. Her parents would never allow it and neither would he. He keeps saying that he can't love anyone so he can't love someone who loves him. Especially a girl who doesn't know what love is. Make her love you in any way possible. I'll write up the paperwork so if she still refuses to love you, you will have this arranged marriage on your side. If she still refuses, tell her that she'll be a traitor to Suna and will be banished with no visitation rights to ANYONE from Suna."

Genma smiled. "Well, I shouldn't have too much trouble but it's nice to know that I have an ace in the hole. She'd never risk doing anything that would keep her from her brother."

Temari didn't show it but she was now regretting her decision. But even if she could take back what she said, who else would be as close to her age and be friends with her? She was stuck with her first impression with no hope of going back. "Just make her fall in love with you by any means necessary and keep her away from Gaara."

The boy then gave the blond a devious grin. "Yes, ma'am..." he said slyly before strutting out of the office. He held himself as if he were the Kazekage of the Sand Dune.

((Alrighty then... here's the next chapter. Now, the next one will start off with-- **loud garbage truck rumbling through the street and interrupts Kitsy** -- and then she's gonna-- **low flying airplane** -- but then Gaara -- **is kidnapped by Nightcrawler before she can reveal anything important that the truck and airplane haven't already hidden**))
