Gaara watched Chii concerned as she laid on her side, curled up on the bed and clutching her head. Tears were streaming down her face as she kept crying out in pain as she unwillingly started to remember things from the past two years. He had sent a message to Tsunade three days ago and was still waiting for Samuru to show up. A message had arrived hours ago, saying that Tsunade sent Sakura and Naruto out to alert Chii's brother and that he was on his way but it was taking too long.
"If he doesn't show up in the next few hours, we're taking her to the hospital to be put under," Temari spoke as she came into the room. "She shouldn't have to be going through this pain. Samuru said she wouldn't have any memories of those people."
"I didn't expect her mind to try and get rid of the jutsu."
Samuru appeared by the open window and sighed. He walked over to the bed and knelt on it next to Chii and rested his hands on her head. A black and green chakra became visible around his hands as he concentrated. Soon the chakra turned ice blue and it seemed to be getting colder in the room.
"What are you doing to her?" Temari asked.
"I'm trying to concentrate," Samuru hissed quietly. Suddenly he was thrown off the bed and hit the wall next to Temari and Gaara. "What the fuck…?"
Ice surrounded Chii then started to spread away from her, encasing everything in ice. Samuru got to his feet and watched in amazement as the entire room became iced, but left the three of them unharmed. Soon all the ice shattered and Gaara brought his sand around his sister, Samuru and himself as all the fragments flew towards them.
"What is going on?" Temari growled.
"I don't know Temari; I've never seen anything like this. I don't even know if Chii is in control or if this is all unconscious thought. Ice users are not very common so we don't know the full extent that others are capable of…" An ice shard went through the sand shield and stopped inches from Samuru's nose. "Fuck, she's pissed…"
"Get out!" Gaara yelled as he felt his sand starting to give.
Temari, Samuru and Gaara dashed out of the room. They dashed out of the house and froze, seeing the whole village covered in ice and the gates were blocked off, completely filled with ice. Villagers and Shinobi were out in the streets, full of confusion and wonder at seeing their desert village turned artic.
"This is Chii's power?" Temari gasped.
"This isn't good," Samuru growled. "Gaara do you have any underground safe houses or anything?"
"Yes but the entrance is iced over," Gaara frowned as he looked at the Kage building. "Damn, what is going on with her?"
"I do not…" the Kage home exploded and a figure shot up into the sky, covered in ice. Gaara and Temari looked up and saw ice wings emerge from Chii, who was still surrounded by ice. Then ice dragons emerged every few hundred yards and flew up to fly around Chii. "What is she doing? I have never seen so much power being controlled."
"How can we stop this?" Temari growled. "From what I can see right now, she could destroy this whole village!"
"Gaara lets go," Samuru growled before ice wings appeared from his back and he shot into the sky towards Chii. Gaara brought his sand under him in a cloud and flew up after him. "Chii! Stop it!"
"You lied to me!" Gaara and Samuru heard her say and Samuru growled. "You tried to erase my fucked up memory, why?!"
"I didn't want you to have to deal with this life anymore Chii," Samuru spoke as he hovered in front of her. "You didn't want it anymore so I was trying to make it happen. They plan to leave you alone since they think you have no memories of it anymore. You are free from that life, so stop this please!"
"You expect me to leave you to deal with them yourself? We started this together Samuru, and I want us to be the ones to finish this, but how can that happen when you are pushing me away," Chii spoke, her voice quiet as the dragons around them started to shatter and fragments started to fall to the ground. Gaara summoned his sand and covered the village so no one got hurt. "Why won't you let me help finish this Samuru?"
"Chikia, you are too carefree to have to deal with this. I won't let you become like me," Samuru spoke as the ice around Chii started disappearing as well as the ice wings. Samuru caught her in his arms before she fell and cradled her close. "You are the only family i have left Chikia, please let me protect you."
"You don't get to finish them off by yourself," she whispered before falling unconscious.
"You were always so stubborn Chikia," Samuru chuckled to himself as he started to fly back to the ground with Gaara as the ice around the desert village melted, leaving everything muddy.
