This is technically a Monster Rancher and Naruto crossover, because Kasumi is a pixie. But in the ninja world, she's different! Might have character bashing.

Summary: A mysterious girl appeared in the ninja world one day. Nobody knows how, but she was from another world. Before she went to that other world, she had a past with Gaara. When she meets him again, will feelings arise?

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto or Monster Rancher :)

"Alright, Sakura and Naruto. You guys get firewood. Sai, when they get the firewood, light it up." Kakashi told his group. Then, as normal, he went to reading his favorite book. Sakura and Naruto then went in separate ways to get the firewood.

~~SAKURA'S POINT OF VIEW~~

I sighed as I went to go get the firewood. Currently, Team 7 was on a mission to deliver a scroll to Suna. Simple, really. I was about to shatter a large branch when I heard something. It was like, a groaning noise. Ninja instincts kicking in, I searched for chakra. At first, it was small, but then it was suddenly growing, like a person recovering chakra. But this was at a fast rate. I dashed over to where the person was. It was a girl. She was in the process of getting up. The girl blinked a couple times and then smacked herself in the forehead. I was confused at her actions. While seeing what was wrong, I looked at her appearance. The girl had lightish brown hair that had long bangs in the front while it was short in the back. (Kinda like GUMI from Vocaloid's hairstyle, but light brown not green) Her eyes were a pale silver, which was kinda odd. She was wearing a white and blue short yukata with white traditional ninja shoes. Suddenly the girl noticed my presence.

"A-ah!" she let out a small yelp.

"It's okay, I'm not going to hurt you. The opposite actually." I told her calmly. Her widened eyes turned soft, and she looked up at me.

"Well let's start by introducing ourselves. I'm Haruno Sakura." I sent her a nice smile.

"My name is Kasumi, and I...don't have a last name" she told me. Surprisingly, she wasn't stuttering anymore. Somehow she trusted me. Then I helped her off the ground.

"So, what are you doing here, Kasumi?" I asked her. That's when she got uncomfortable.

"Eheh, that's the problem. I don't." Kasumi said sadly. Then she paused, held out her hand, and did something strange. A glow of pink light surrounded her outstretched hand.

"Yes! It still works!" Kasumi cheered.

"What was that?" I asked her. The pink glow vanished from Kasumi's hand.

"Well..uhh...It's an attack of mine...called Ray Cast..." She muttered.

"That's pretty cool! How did you do that? How much chakra does it absorb?" I peppered her with questions about this strange 'attack'. After I said chakra, she stopped looking at the ground and looked straight ahead of her.

"Chakra...chakra...wait a second. Chakra...jutsus...no way!" Kasumi said/shouted.

"What's wrong?" I asked her.

"I used to live here...when I was small. Before I-" She paused.

"Before you what?" My curiosity level was rising.

"Oh, umm, nevermind. Anyway, where are we?" Kasumi asked me.

"We're near Su-" My voice was cut off by a loud and obnoxious one.

"SAKURA-CHAN HURRY UP!" It was Naruto.

"Oh shoot! Here, Kasumi, come with me to our camp and we'll tell you more." I held my hand out to her. She slowly grabbed it and I led her to Team 7's camp.

"Well, looks like Ugly brought a friend back with her." Sai snickered.

"Shut up Sai." I glared at him. He just smirked bigger.

"Sakura-chan, who is she? Her chakra is weird." Naruto asked me. Kasumi released her grip on me and bowed to the group. "I'm very sorry to disturb you all. My name is Kasumi, and don't ask because I don't have a last name." She sent them a cheerful smile. Wow, this girl was weird. One moment she's shy and the other she's polite and bold?

"She, well...mysteriously appeared here..." I explained.

"By the way Sakura, where did you say we were?" Kasumi asked again.

"Oh, right. We're kind of close to Suna." I told her.

"Suna...I don't know why but it sounds real familiar." She said quietly.

"Kakashi-sensei?" I called out. Surprisingly, he wasn't reading his book. 'Wow, Kasumi must be really interesting.' I thought.

"Do you think we could bring Kasumi with us to Suna to she if she remembers anything?" Everything grew quiet. We all waited for Kakashi's answer.

"Okay. We can help her out. Sai, can you prepare another bed for our guest?" Sai seemed reluctant for a second, but then headed to Sakura's tent to make another bed.

"Well, Kasumi, you are one interesting little lady." Kakashi jumped off the branch he was sitting on and patted her head. Kasumi just closed her eyes and smiled.

"Hey Kasumi?" I asked. She turned her head to me. "Welcome to the crazy Team 7." I smiled.
