-Star-

"Do you think she'll ever come out of her room?"

I asked Sheera as we made out way to homeroom.

"I'm not sure Star, I'm really not sure."

She said and I sighed. I missed watching as Saya got into fights over me and Sheera. Seeing her smile and laugh. I just wanted my sister back. I never would have thought something like that could have happened, but knowing about it and not being able to comfort my sister was what hurt me.

"All we can do is hope she'll come out of it eventually."

Sheera said as we walked through the door of Kakashi's room. We both stopped as we saw the black and red haired girl sitting in the seat next to Gaara's with her legs propped up on the desk with her hands folded behind her head and her eyes closed.

"S-Saya!?"

I asked in shock and our sister opened her eyes and looked at us.

"Yo."

She said with a smile and Sheera and I raced over to her and attacked her in a hug, almost knocking her out of her chair.

"Thank Kami you're alive!"

I shouted and that made Saya laugh which made me want to cry. Oh how I've missed the sound of her laughter.

"Why wouldn't I be Star? It's only been four days."

She said and I pulled back and stared at her as I wiped at my eyes.

"I...I know, but I was still worried."

I said trying not to sob as I cried that my sister had finally come back.

"Sheesh, don't cry Star. I'm fine see?"

She asked spreading out her arms for me to see she was physically fine.

"I..I know, but..."

I said and she reached out and ruffled my hair.

"I'm fine Star, I've decided to stop living in the past. I'm sorry I worried you two."

She said smiling at me and Sheera and I cried that much more.

"Oi, you weren't supposed to cry even more."

She said and I tackled her in another hug and wrapped my arms tightly around her waist. I never wanted to let her go now that she was back.

"Hey, what's all the commotion?"

I heard Naruto say and heard him and the others come into the room, but didn't let go of Saya.

-Saya-

Star clung to my waist tightly and I could feel her crying into my shirt.

"Hey, what's all the commotion?"

I heard Naruto ask and looked up to see him and the others walk into the room. Their eyes widened before they all rushed forward, minus Gaara, and enveloped me in a group hug.

"Dear Kami let me out of here!"

I screamed as I was swamped with hugs and questions of if I was alright and if I was better now.

"I'm fine, but if you guys don't let me breathe I won't be!"

I shouted and they all backed up to give me room to breathe except for Star who was still clinging to me as if her life depended on it.

"It's great to have you back Saya."

Naruto said with a smile and I nodded at his comment as Kakashi came into the room.

"Oh, Saya you're back."

He said and I smiled at him.

"Alright, everyone take your seats."

He said and Naruto and the others went to their seats, but Star still wouldn't let go.

"Star, you too."

Kakashi said coming over and looking down at her since she was crouched down and hugging me tightly.

"No."

She said and I sweatdropped. She could be such a kid, but she was making me feel really bad for locking myself up in my room.

"Star."

Kakashi said as he leaned down and started to pick her up. I growled at him for touching my sister and he instantly backed away with his hands held up in surrender.

"R-Right."

He said before backing up and starting class like none of that just happened. I sighed and patted Star's head as I heard her whimper again and felt her start to cry. She calmed down, but still didn't let me go.

"Come on Star, I feel bad enough as is."

I whispered to her and she only tightened her grip on me. I sighed and smoothed down her hair and ran my fingers through it to calm her down like I always did. By the time first period was done she'd stopped crying completely, but still wouldn't let me go. I walked out in the hall with her arms still wrapped around my waist and sighed.

"Star, I need to get to class."

I said, but she tightened her grip around me and shook her head.

"I'm not gonna go anywhere."

I said and she glared at me and I chuckled nervously as I got the silent message.

"I swear to you Star, I'm not going anywhere."

I said and she frowned up at me and her eyes started to water again and my will started to crumble when I suddenly felt someone grab me by my arm and pull me out of Star's grip. I blinked in surprise and turned to see Gaara standing right next to me with his hand wrapped firmly, but gently around my arm. I hadn't expected him to help me out.

"T-Thanks."

I said and he looked at me surprised before slowly letting go of my arm and walking down the hall to class. I saw Star start to come towards me and backed away from her.

"Sorry Star, but I gotta get to class! I'll see you in Music and Arts!"

I shouted before turning and running down the hall to get away from my extremely clingy sister. I collapsed in my seat and sighed as I laid my head down on the tabletop. I knew my sisters were worried about me and all, but that was ridiculous.

"Here."

I heard Gaara say and lifted my head to see him push a notebook my way.

"What-"

"You were out for a while and missed a lot."

He said looking in the opposite direction. I looked down at the notebook and saw it was filled with notes for this class. I flipped through the pages and was shocked to see it was in Gaara's handwriting.

So these are his notes? Why is he letting me copy them?

I wondered confused, but couldn't help but smile at the small gesture.

"Thanks."

I said before pulling out my own notebook and started to copy them down. By the time Anko assigned us to a lab I was already halfway done.

"Damn, I really missed a lot."

I said as I looked around the room to see everyone dissecting the plants around us. What cutting up plants had to do with human anatomy I will never know.

"You were out for four days."

Gaara said calmly and I turned to look at him with my eyes narrowed before sighing and smiling slightly.

"Yeah, I suppose so."

I said before reading the next part on the lab, but frowned when I saw I didn't understand what to do.

"Hey, do you know what she means by this?"

I asked him as I looked down at the paper. I looked up at him to see him staring at me and for some reason it made my heart beat faster.

"She wants you to cut it down the middle of the stem then section it."

He explained and I smiled at him before picking up the scapel.

"Okay, thanks."

I said before moving over to do so. I noticed he tensed as I got closer to him and chose to ignore it. I guess it would be weird for him seeing as how I'm being nice to him all of a sudden.

-Gaara-

I didn't get it. When she first shows up here with her sisters she says she can't stand my kind, she skips school for four days and suddenly shows back up and is acting like nothing happened. To be honest it kinda pissed me off. She caused so much commotion with her vanishing act and she's smiling and acting like it's all okay.

"Is there a partciular reason you're staring at me?"

She asked pleasantly and I narrowed my eyes at her.

"Yeah. I can't stand your attitude. First you hate me and my kind and blame us for shit humans did, disappear for four days, then suddenly show up and your all smiles."

I said and she looked at me in shock before shrugging.

"I decided to let the past stay in the past. It ain't right for me to judge all vampires for what a certain group of them did."

She said and I growled at her.

"Oh what? Now you're some kind of enlightened profit? I don't buy it."

I said and she looked at me in shock.

"I'm just not gonna act like a bitch to you and your siblings because of something someone else did."

She said and I glared at her.

"So instead you're going to pretend to be all happy and smile all the time? I'm sorry, but I'd rather have you be yourself and yelling at me than smiling at me when you don't mean it."

I said before grabbing my bag and walking out of the classroom as the bell rang.

I walked into the Music and Arts room and sat with Temari and Kankuro and crossed my arms over my chest as I propped my feet up on the chair infront of me. She fucking pissed me off with her attitude. I hated when people pretended to be something they weren't.

"Hey Gaara, are you alright?"

Kankuro asked and I glared at him in response.

"Riight, sorry I asked."

He said before looking away. Saya and her sisters walked in and she was smiling again which made me glare at her. She looked in my direction and immediately looked away.

Seems like what I said got to her, good.

I thought as I heard Orochimaru talk about how great it was to have Saya back and that everyone needed to work on their parts. People broke off into groups to practice, but I noticed Saya sat back and watched everyone.

"I'll be right back, there's something I need to tell Saya."

Temari said suddenly and walked over to her. I watched the two of them and saw Temari pull something out of her bag and show it to Saya who's eyes widened before they narrowed and she started to yell. Though I didn't like the fact she was yelling at my sister, it was better than her fucking smiling while she didn't mean it.

-Saya-

I was watching everyone else work together and mentally sighed. I'd missed quite a lot.

"Hey Saya, can I talk to you?"

I looked up to see Temari standing infront of me.

"Yeah sure."

I said and watched as she pulled something out of her bag and held it out to me. I looked at it and recognized my handwritting, but more importantly it was the letter I'd sent to Temari that explained my past.

"Why the fuck do you have that!?"

I snapped at her and noticed everyone turned towards us.

"I'm the penpal you've been writing to for the past twelve years. I'm sorry I didn't tell you, but I didn't even know until a few days ago."

She said and I glared at her. I can't believe I'd told a vampire my biggest secret, but I wasn't upset about that so much as the fact I didn't put it together myself. My penpal's name was Temari, she was a Mythical who was my age. Kami sometimes I was so stupid.

"So what? Did you go around and tell everyone so they'd pity me?"

I asked as I glared at her.

"No, I'd never do that. I showed your sisters because I thought they deserved to know, but I didn't tell anyone."

She said and I glared at her even more for showing my sisters, but I had to admit it was nice to know that I wasn't alone in this anymore.

"Hey, calm down Saya."

Naruto said and I looked up to see him and the others had formed a circle around us. I looked around and stopped on Gaara. He had a small smirk on his face and I growled at him.

"I bet you find this fucking hilarious don't you?"

I snapped and he looked at me boredly.

"At least you're not pretending to smile and be happy like a moron."

He said and I growled at him before tackling him to the ground.

"You know you're a real ass!"

I screamed at him as I punched him in the face. He narrowed his eyes at me and grabbed my arms and rolled us over so that he was pinning me down.

"And you're a weak little girl."

He said and I glared up at him before headbutting him and pushing him off me. I stood up and glared at him and was shocked to see a barely noticable smile on his face and my eyes widened as I realized what he was doing. It wasn't like me to be all smiles about everything, he was right, I was acting like someone else. I smiled before tackling him to the ground again, this time not really trying to hurt him.

"You asshole, why'd you have to go and be all bitchy on me?"

I asked as we rolled around on the ground. I pinned him down and stared down at him with a smile on my face that he returned with a barely noticeable one of his own. I stared into his eyes and my smile widened.

"Thanks."

I said before I felt someone pull me off of him. I fought against whoever it was because I personally didn't like being manhandled. I turned to see it was Naruto and elbowed him in the gut making him let me go.

"Saya stop it!"

Sakura shouted and I smiled at her before bursting out laughing making them all look at me like I'd lost it.

"Umm, is she okay?"

I heard TenTen ask my sisters and I laughed when they nodded.

"She's fine."

Sheera said and I kept laughing for a few more minutes before getting myself under control. I walked over to Temari who was looking at me like I was about to scold her.

"Sorry 'bout that."

I said with a small giggle making her look at me confused.

"I wasn't really upset with you so much at myself for not putting the pieces together."

I said and she blinked a few times in surprise.

"Thanks for putting up with me for so many years and thank you for reminding me of something really important my mom told me."

I said with a smile and she looked at me confused.

"N-No problem."

She said slowly and I looked around to see the whole class staring at us to see what crazy thing I'd do next and glared at them all.

"What? Does this look like a circus to you people!?"

I snapped and they all looked away quickly. I sighed before turning towards my sisters.

"I believe I have some catching up to do, yeah?"

I asked and they both smiled at me.

"It's good to have you back sis."

Sheera said ruffling my hair and I swatted her hand away.

"Yeah, yeah."

I said but smiled at her anyway. To be honest, it was good to be back.
