Intro song: MGMT "kids"

Gaara and Sakura was walking towards Gaara's temporary home, she got the address from her sensei since she was the most responsible of the three. They were just walking in complete silence. Of course there was chatter in the street but there were no conversation between the two of them. They were too busy handling their inner demons so to speak.

"Oh come on girl you walking with a dashing red head and your not even making any progress with him, you won't be with him at all if you keep this up!." Inner sakura screamed

"Oh shut up you, seriously he clearly doesn't want to chat at the moment and I don't like him." Sakura replied

"He probably doesn't know how to and don't deny it I know you because am you. Just have a simple conversation to make him open to usInner Sakura said

"I will but now is not the damn time!" Sakura shouted.

"When will it be time then eh?"

"I-I don't know but it is not now ok." Sakura shut her out for a while. Meanwhile in Gaara's head him and Shukaku are having a similar conversation.

"Come on kid you know you like her now say it to her." Shukaku yelled.

"No I don't bloody like her and I am not going to tell her anything!" seethed Gaara.

"Why not kid I think she's totally into you and besides I think she will accept you."

"Yeah now she is now but only until she finds out about me and about you."

"Have some faith kid she is not like any of the others believe me."

Both of them shut out their inner 'demons' and they had arrived their like they just teleported as they shut them out. They walked inside and went up the stair to Gaara's room. She noticed that they were two rooms written on her card written by Kakashi. She assumed Gaara was the one that had his own room and she wondered why.

"I have my own room because my father can't stand being in the same room as the monster of the family." Gaara said as he read her mind. Sakura couldn't believe what she heard how can a father class his son as a monster or anyone could class him as one at all. After all she believed that everyone should be treated equally as a human being.

"I see." Was all that she could say I mean what could she say to that? She should've said that he wasn't a monster at all but why didn't she just tell him that. She then thought of an idea of how to make it up to him even though she thought he didn't care.

"Hey Gaara."

"What?" He said a bit annoyed

"Hey just listen yeah, I assume you don't have anything to do until the chuunin exams correct?" She stated rather than asked and Gaara was puzzled but nodded.

"Well do you want to come over to my house then? Since you have nothing else to do and I quite enjoy your company as well." Sakura asked while smiling. To say that Gaara was shocked is an understatement. He couldn't believe what she just asked him. Part of him was again relieved and then part of him was saddened because of Shukaku.

"See kid told ya she's different." Shukaku said in his head.

"Of course she's not she is just stupid that's all." Gaara stated

"I know you don't believe that really kid secretly you know she is different and you want her to return her feelings."

"What! No way she is just another person to me, no one special at all." Gaara denied and shut out his demon again. Meanwhile on the outside Sakura is yet again waving her hand in front again. She did the same thing again as earlier she smacked him on the head again oblivious to the sand again. When the punch connected Gaara returned to the real world and rubbed his head again.

"What again!" Gaara shouted while Sakura slightly giggled at him. She loved riling him up for some reason.

"Well what else did I have to do to stop you dazing off." She stated while motioning him to follow her. Gaara did have nothing better to do so he followed her. During the trip Sakura stopped having another conversation with her inner self.

"Oh my god you so like him!"

"O-Of course I don't I'm just inviting him since he has nobody to talk to." Sakura said getting flustered.

"Don't lie to yourself Sakura you know it to be true."

"I don't like him that way and besides he only thinks of me as a friend if that at all!"

"Haha you do like him your just afraid he won't return your feelings."

"For god's sake shut up!" Sakura screamed in her head and shut her out for a while. She looked around to find Gaara gone so she walked forward a bit onto the street and when she turned around a corner she tripped on sand and face planted into the pavement. She could hear Gaara slightly chuckling to himself and she was furious about this.

"Gaara what the fuck was that for!" She yelled on the street while Gaara slightly chuckled again.

"Well I had to get you back somehow you hypocrite." He stated while smirking. Sakura just growled quietly at him.

"Whatever let's go." She stated obviously still angry at the faceplant. Gaara followed her yet again. About ten minutes later they reached Sakura's home.

"Why are you being nice to me?" Gaara mumbled under his breath but Sakura heard it and she was a bit devastated when she heard that from him however she didn't know the full reason why.

"Do you want me to not treat you nicely." Sakura asked sadly.

"N-never mind." Gaara mumbled again.

She knocked on the door and went inside.

"Mom I'm home." Yelled Sakura as she walked in the living room. A woman who looked like she is in her early 30's popped her head out of the kitchen door while smiling.

"Hi sweetie who's your friend?"

"This is my friend Gaara, I wondered if it was ok to invite him over and let him have a taste of your delicious cookies."

"Hi Gaara it is a pleasure to meet you and sure I have already made a batch." Sakura's mother said as she puts a bowl of cookies down on the living room. The living room itself was simple just a light blue paint with a white coloured ceiling, one sofa, a chair and a glass table in the middle. Sakura and Gaara sat down. Sakura took one of the cookies and began to munch on it Gaara followed her example but he seemed to be a little hesitant.

"My mom didn't poison it you know, try it it's good." Sakura said smiling. Gaara did what he was told and he ate it. It was probably the most delicious cookie Gaara had ever eaten however he swore that he had these before but he couldn't place his finger on them.

"So how are they?"

"These are...good." Gaara said but in reality he wanted to nom on every last cookie there is but that would be out of his character and reputation. When the last cookie was devoured they just sat in silence for a couple of minutes until Gaara asks Sakura something out of curiosity.

"Sakura why did you spend the day with me?" Sakura was a bit shocked by this question but she soon snapped out of it and answered him.

"Well first of all it was my mission to escort you around the village but then everyone left and you seemed a bit lonely really so I decided to take you and to be honest I thought you were the most interesting out of the bunch anyway."

"Oh really how am I interesting? You know I could've killed you on the spot and you could sense my blood lust. Don't deny that you couldn't tell."

"I don't know really to be honest I mean you are a mysterious person and an outcast and I think you really need someone to call a friend. Yes I know you could have killed me at anytime however I had no intention of leaving you alone so I was ready to accept death. Lastly yes I have sensed your bloodlust but I don't mind that because I actually like blood myself." Sakura stated and to say that Gaara was shocked was an understatement he was absolutely gobsmacked he met plenty of people who were terrified of death and of him but this woman didn't fear him at all instead she actually made an effort into trying to befriend him which nobody has ever done before, hell she even likes a bit of blood.

However he soon felt something clawing inside his head but it wasn't Shukaku. No this attack from inside was darker and more evil than him. He clutched his hand onto his head and Sakura got worried as he was groaning in agony. Soon Shukaku joined in on the clawing as well wanting to brake free of this infernal prison of his. Gaara disappeared in a whirl of sand and appeared in front of the house he would have appeared further but the pain was a bit too unbearable.

Sakura found him outside on her front entrance on his knees with both of his hands on his head clearly in pain. The pain in Gaara's head didn't seem to stop at all this was the worst pain he had ever experienced. Shukaku was never this bad and he wondered where the hell the other pair of claws had appeared from. A minute later Sakura was panicking as she didn't know what to do so she did something completely unexpected to him.

She hugged him as tightly as she could so that he couldn't disappear and hell she had a damn strong grip. At the first contact Shukaku quickly withdrew his attack and the pain automatically stopped almost immediately. Sakura was glad that his pain had stopped since she could sense it. Gaara decided there was no use in hiding his demon anymore and confessed to her everything.

"I-I have this demon called Shukaku, he attacked Suna one day and my father used a jutsu to create a child and store it in him, that child was me. For six consecutive years I was alone and I desperately wanted someone to accept me and eventually someone did. I have no idea what she looked like but she had a cheery personality and was able to raise anyone's mood. However a couple of weeks later she moved out of the village and the day after an assassin tried to kill me. I surrounded him with sand and crushed him and I found out it was my uncle who claimed he always loved me." Gaara's voice was breaking but he didn't stop with the confession she has to know everything for some reason that he cannot comprehend.

"He told me that he hated me for taking his sister away from him and the village, she was respected to the highest degree she died giving birth to me. I found out he was ordered to assassinate me by my father the kazekage of Suna but he would've done it anyway sooner or later. I always hated him after that and I never wanted to let anyone in, I didn't want to be hurt by anyone ever again and I enjoyed making his life a living hell that was also the day I got this." Referring to his love kanji on his forehead.

"That's why I'm a monster I took everyone's favourite woman away and I killed anyone I wanted because I need to satisfy Shukaku's blood lust because he will keep clawing inside my head until I do. Ever since no one has ever been there for me not even my so called siblings since the moment I was born." Gaara stopped to feel water on his clothes, it wasn't water it was tears Sakura was bawling her eyes out for him and Gaara couldn't believe it. She was crying for him a monster, a demon made for destruction so why was she crying for him.

"Gaara, I'm so sorry that happened to you they shouldn't in a way exile you like that. You're a human being the thing inside you is the demon not you so don't you dare say that you're a monster because it's not true. I'm sorry that you had to go through all that alone I wish I could've been there to ease your pain. Now though you are not alone anymore you have me I'll be your friend anytime you can talk to me whenever you want." She said smiling at him while rubbing her tears away. Gaara was shocked by the fact that she didn't hate him at all but instead accepted him. He was so used to being hated that he didn't express any other emotion.

"Sakura...thank you." He whispered then he disappeared in a whirl of sand while Sakura just stood there and smiled and went back inside. However either of them didn't realise the dark shadow standing on a tree branch who was watching this whole thing unfold.

"Interesting she managed to help him win against a level one possession, hmm not bad Sakura but now this just confirmed my suspicions hehe and now I know your weakness." Nightmare said with a villainous smile.

"Nightmare we mapped the whole village." Dosu said arriving right beside him.

"Excellent work Dosu I assume the other two are resting."

"Yes they are should we plant the traps?"

"no not yet not until after the invasion."

"So Nightmare what do you think of them two." He said referring to Gaara and Sakura. "Should we kill them quickly or slowly?"

"Hmm let's kill them slowly if things don't go to plan during the invasion. If it does those two will kill each other as they are the other person's weakness." Nightmare simply said.

"What about the demons the Uchiha did say he wanted them alive."

"Well we will kill them as a last resort but they will regenerate in their strongest nature in two years if that happens."

"Oh I can't wait to destroy this village and Orochimaru!" Dosu said seething in anger.

"When the time is right you can do both but for now keep your hatred a low profile as we don't want to arouse any suspicion at the moment."

"Fine but I don't want to wait too long though I want everyone in this village to pay for what they have done to me and the sound village." Dosu said more hatred seething with each new word while pointing at his bandages.

"Don't worry Dosu old friend we will make everyone pay. The darkness will devour everyone in this village and then the world. However what's the fun in that when you can break people's minds and corrupt them to serve you, the darkness in their hearts will allow me to do that because everyone has a dark side somewhere I just need to bring it out." Nightmare said while smiling sadistically.

"Good, good I want these people to suffer for what they have done. So are you suspicions confirmed Nightmare are they what you believed them to be?" Dosu asked.

"Yes, yes they are Dosu they shouldn't have displayed their weakness in public now I know exactly what to do." Nightmare said with a wide and evil grin across his face.

"Would they remember about each other tomorrow?"

"I think so their memories of six years ago should've been remembered and then I think they will get visions from our previous fight."

"Your previous fight? Nightmare that's quite a long time ago."

"Not really when your demon has a long memory especially since you can absorb him and not just contain him. This time the darkness will consume everything and they cannot stop me like last time which was a fluke! Let's go to the edge of the village Dosu." Nightmare said.

"So you really are going to use that jutsu?" Dosu asked

"Of course even though it will be a last resort."

"Will I be able to have my fun though first?" Dosu asked nefariously.

"Obviously you will what kind of friend will I be if I didn't even let my friend have fun." Nightmare diabolically yelled. They jumped from tree to tree until they reached to the end of the village.

Nightmare: And there's my piece of shit chapter that everyone was looking forward to or not.
