whiteicewolf: I do not own Naruto.
Naruto, Gaara, and Hinata were now resting under the shade of a tree enjoying the apples that Naruto gathered the other day.
"Hey Gaara" Naruto said trying to get Gaara's attention
"Yeah" Gaara said
"I was just wondering" Naruto said as he took a bite of his apple
"Wondering about what" Gaara said before he took a bite of his apple
"Your father sent assasins after you and your uncle tried to kill you. I was wondering. Why didn't you go all cold and heartless" Naruto said as he took another bite of his apple. Gaara looked down at the ground remebering his uncles face when he said that he despised him like everybody else.
"You don't have to answer if you don't want to" Naruto said sensing that Gaara was remembering the all the bad times of his life.
"When my uncle died he told me that my mother hated me and that she named me Gaara because she wanted me to destroy Suna" Gaara said. Naruto and Hinata just listened for Gaara to continue.
"Before he died he told me to only love myself and fight for myself" Gaara said still looking at the ground.
"And that's when the sand made this Kanji on my forehead" Gaara said pointing at the Kanji
"So how did you not go crazy or anything" Naruto said
"That night when my uncle died I really wanted to kill everybody. But for some strange reason I didn't want to. I thought that maybe if I was still kind people would want to be my friends" Gaara said then he took a bite of his apple
"But even if I was kind everybody still hated me" Gaara said as he took another bite of his apple
"Gaara" Naruto said
"But then you guys became my friends" Gaara said as he looked up at them and then gave a small smile.
"If it weren't for you guys I probably would have been alone my entire life" Gaara said then he took a bite of his apple.
"We're friends now Gaara and friends look out for each other" Naruto said then he finished the last of his apple.
"N-Naruto's r-right" Hinata said as she finished her apple.
"You guys are really good friends" Gaara said then he finished his apple.
"Come on guys let's get going" Naruto said then he walked to the right
"Um, Naruto all we have to do is go straight" Gaara said making Naruto stop in his tracks
"Oh yeah, straight ahead" Naruto said as he walked straight with Hinata and Gaara with him.
At night
"We should rest here for the night" Naruto said as he put his backpack down.
"O-Ok" Hinata said as she put her backpack down. Gaara did the same thing.
"I'll make sure that nobody sees us you guys go get some sleep" Gaara said
"Thanks Gaara" Naruto said before he yawned and went to sleep.
"G-Good night G-Gaara" Hinata said before she fell asleep.
In the morning
"Hinata wake up" Gaara said as she shook hinata awake.
"I'm up" Hinata yawned
"I need your help waking up Naruto" Gaara said as he pointed at Naruto who was sleeping like a log.
"N-Naruto wake up" Hinata said as she tried to shake Naruto awake, but Naruto still slept.
"I already tried that, and I only have one thing to say Naruto can sleep like a log" Gaara said as he looked at Naruto.
"I-I have an idea" Hinata said
"What is it" Gaara asked
"N-Naruto, breakfast!" Hinata yelled. Then Naruto suddenly shot up and looked around.
"Breakfast" Naruto said as he looked at hinata and Gaara.
"Yeah so let's eat" Gaara said as he took out some granola bars from his bag and gave them to Hinata and Naruto.
"Hey Hinata how much longer until we reach a place that has snow" Naruto asked before he took a bite of his granola bar.
"I-I'm guessing if we're lucky that w-we should get there l-later this day." Hinata said then she took a bite of her granola bar.
"If that's true then we should change our clothing for clothes that suit cold climates" Gaara said before he took a bite of his granola bar.
"You're right, Gaara" Naruto said before he took another bite of his granola bar.
"So once we're done eating we should change into warmer clothing" Naruto said as he took another bite.
"O-Ok" hinata said as she ate her granola bar. Once everybody finished eating they started to change their clothes. Hinata changed her clothes somewhere else since, Naruto and Gaara were boys. Once everybody was done changing Naruto was wearing an orange jacket and baggy black pants, Gaara was wearing a red jacket and also had baggy black pants like Naruto. Hinata was still wearing her baggy jacket from last night and she was still wearing black pants.
"Ok, let's go!" Naruto yelled as he walked straight with Gaara and Hinata following him.
Later that day
"Hey guys it's snowing" Naruto said as he looked at the snow that was falling.
"Wow this is the first time I've seen snow" Gaara said as he looked Naruto running around trying to catch one of the snowflakes on his tongue.
"It's our first time too" Hinata said as she caught some of the falling snowflakes in her hands
"Naruto come on there's a village up ahead" Gaara said Naruto stopped running around and then followed Gaara and Hinata to the village. Once they got to the village they bought some gloves since they didn't want their hands to freeze. Naruto got orange gloves, Gaara got red gloves, and Hinata got lavender gloves. Once they were done with getting gloves they started to walk around the village
Naruto POV
Gaara and Hinata and I were walking around the village. We were crossing a bridge when I saw kid sitting there wearing nothing but a large shirt and pants.
Isn't she cold I thought as we walked up to her. I stopped and looked at her. Her hair was all messy and her shirt and pants looked like it could barely keep her warm she wasn't wearing any shoes or socks.
"Hi" I said to her. She looked up at me.
Her eyes they're look so lonely I thought as I looked at her
"Hi" she replied
"I'm Naruto, this is Hinata, and Gaara" I said as I pointed to my friends
"H-Hi" Hinata said
"Hi" Gaara said
"Hi" she replied
"um, aren't you cold" I asked.
"Yeah, but I'm used to the cold" she said
"Um, I-If you don't mind me asking where are your p-parents" Hinata asked timidly
"They're dead" she said her voice void of any emotion
"I-I'm sorry" Hinata said
"You don't have to be" she said
"How did your parents die?" Gaara asked
What kind of question is that! I thought I mean who asks a persons parents how they died.
"My father killed my mother and he tried to kill me, but" She said
"But what" I said
"I killed him before he killed me" she said
She's just like Gaara, I thought as I looked at Gaara who must have been thinking the same thing.
"You're just like me" Gaara said the girl looked confused
"I killed my uncle before he killed me" Gaara said.
"I see" she said
"Hey do you want to come with us" I said. She looked taken back from the question and so did Gaara and Hinata
"Huh?" she said confused
"Do you want to travel with us" I said to her then Gaara yanked me towards him.
"Are you crazy we don't even know her name" Gaara whispered
"We can't just leave her here" I said pointing at her
"Um" She said trying to get our attention
"I know that" Gaara said
"She looks like she's going to freeze to death" I said
"Um" She said still trying to get our attention
"I know that, bu-" Gaara said
"N-Naruto G-Gaara" Hinata said getting our attention. We both turned to her.
"Yeah" we both said
"um, she's trying to say something" hinata said pointing at the girl
"What is it?" I asked
"I'm a boy" she… he said
"WHAT!" Me, Hinata, and Gaara yelled.
