(Oil? Do you mean girl? Which one do you prefer the new one or the old one? Lol consider yourself lucky your like the only person I would do a Naruto role play with)

”A demon inside you that prevents you from ever sleeping? Wow that’s… I’m so sorry to hear that’ she said at last, how horrible it must be to never be able to sleep. No wonder he was so mean and grumpy all the time, her heart went out to him she wished there was a way she could help but no doubt they would never accept her help. Shaking her head it was only then that she realized just how close he was to her, his warm breath tickled her face. His smell was intoxicating a mixture of chocolates and mints, she leaned closer unconsciously but just as fast he pulled away. It made her realize what she was doing and blush a deep red shocked with herself. His lips had been right there, she had been so tempted to just lean over and kiss them wrap her arms around him and kiss him until she forgot everything else but him. Including the fact that there were people in the room. She jumped up from her seat as she remembered that fact ”I d-don’t blame you, a power crazy clan that could be any number of the clans here” she gave the room a small nervous smile.

Relieve seeped through her as the door opened and inside came her trusted advisor no doubt searching her out to give her some other bad news, the thought sobered her instantly and as her advisor came over to her and whispered something in her ear her face went from red to pale in seconds. ”Are you sure?” she whispered back forgetting everyone else in the room. He nodded and jerked his chin towards the others. Shaking her head she plastered a fake smile on her face ”sorry it seems something came up and I have to go I hope to talk to you all soon” bidding them all goodbye she followed her advisor who tugged her aside soon enough into a private room.

”Are you sure about this Ash?” she asked the fear in her voice only recognizable by him because he knew her so well. ”Yes I just got the information from one of my men, Styxx used your absence and took over the clan, at least in word, when you get back you’re going to have a fight on your hands. Gem he’s strong can you even take him?” Ash knew it had to be a one on one type fight, she needed to earn the respect of all the people who were still undecided about her leadership. ”Don’t have a choice do I?”

((sorry I'm on my iPod and it's spell check is a bitch :( I put Pic but it changed it to oil.
And I do feel lucky :D))

Gaara looked at her oddly as gem jumped up. Had she noticed what he had come so close to doing? When the man took her out of the room, Gaara followed and was sure to eaves drop on the whole conversation. He made a hand sign. "opening of the third eye." he whispered quietly and sand went into the room. It was practically unnoticeable. It was small and shaped like an eye. Gaara could see the whole room with it. He heard that her clan had been taken. He was detirmind to help. Suddenly He was whirled around by a large man that scared him shitless. He glared at Gaara who flinched. The man picked him up and busted Into the room. "We must kill him now! He has heard your conversion. Gaara made a run for the door, but was hit hard in the stomach and he fell to the ground. "He's a weak little punk. Can I do the killing? Please Gem? Pretty please?" the man grinned crazily. "He looks fun to play with. I think I should start by taking of that pretty face." The man grabbed a knife and gently stroked it across Gaara's cheek. "Then I'll make sure he has no way to call himself a man." he referenced to Gaara's reproductive organs. "And then I'll bite off each little finger and toe. Followed by a nice plucking out of his eyes. His eyes are pretty." Gaara looked like he might faint from the horror of what was being said. He dashed for the door agian, but was knocked down agian. He screamed, hoping Temari or Sakura would hear him. The he yelled at the man. "Get away from me!" his voice was shrill and his knees shook. "O!! He's afraid! I like that a lot. Say, Gem you wanna watch or help me do it? You can keep his eyes, look how pretty they are." He pointed to Gaara's seafoam colored eyes. Gaara thought they were sick creeps.

Gem was sitting on a table her head in her hands, she only felt safe enough with Ash to show this much weakness. To be able to cry and not be thought weak, not that she was crying but it was an option. Even though Ash would never hug her or comfort her, she knew he wouldn’t think less of her if she did. The door burst open behind her making her head jerk up so fast she nearly gave herself whiplash, in came Gem’s guard Tak a big hulking man Gem didn’t like at all but Ash insisted on because one he was strong and ferocious and two he was totally loyal to her. But in Gem’s opinion he was just plain crazy and scary to boot he had bloodlust in him rivaled by none. His suggestions about what to do with Gaara made her cringe but of course she didn’t show it. ”There will be no need for that Tak now leave” Tak of course protested but a stern look from Gem sent him out the door with his head hanging, if he had been a dog his tail would be between his legs. ”I’m sorry about him Gaara. But he is right about one thing, you were spying on our private meeting what did you hear?” jumping off the table she walked right up to his kneeling so they stood face to face. She could strike if she needed to, she only hoped there would be no need.

Gaara was pale and looked like he might vomit. "G-get away from me!" he backed away from her and bolted out the door. Temari grabbed him as he collapsed in the health room. He threw up, still picturing what had been his suggested torture. Temari and Sakura exchanged glances. "Shut the door and don't let anyone it. No one! Particularly that girl, Gem." they locked the door and there were no windows. Gaara thought Gem and her clan were insane and wanted nothing to do with her. He couldn't belive he'd acctully wanted to kiss her. She was pretty, but he liked having his body fully intact. He was shaking and Temari looked worried. "What happened?" "I over heard a conversation about her clan being taken over and then her guard wanted to kill me. He said he would skin my face, and eat my fingers, and pluck out my eyes." Gaara threw up agian. Temari looked a bit pale now too. "Sick.." she murmured.

Gem watched him run out the door and her heart constricted great just as she started to make friends with these people, now they thought her insane. ”I hate Tak how could you make him my guard?” she wailed tears already pooling in her eyes. ”Gem?” Ash didn’t know what to do with a girl that was on the verge of tears, maybe leave her be was best patting her on the shoulder he left the room. Which was a good thing for him, because she broke down, crying over it all. The lost friends, her clan, the loss of her father. It all seemed to crash down on her. After awhile though she cried herself out, one thing could be taken care of and soon, Gaara and the others wouldn’t want her anywhere near them so she wouldn’t even try. At least more than a letter which she quickly jotted off.

I’m sorry about Tak, he’s crazy but we aren’t all like that.
Don’t worry, I won’t bother you guys. I know what you must think of me.
Hope you get well soon Gaara.
Gem

It was a quick note precise and to the point, another note she gave to Ash, she left it in his room, without telling anyone she was leaving Ash to take her place in the meeting. Meanwhile she would head back to her clan and beat back the usurper who tried to take over her father’s clan. Even if he was so much more experienced than her. Death seemed imminent, time to get the show on the road. Packing a quick bag she left as soon as she could, even if it was night. No one saw her leave.

Temari stared at Gaara who had a fit of coughing and the whole floor before him was glossy and red with blood. Sakura was now littering the bloody floor wot tears. She put him to sleep for a while. Sakura had no more hope of saving him. He was going to die. Maybe within the next few days if he had anymore stress. Sakura knew he had wanted a friend so badly. He had no friends and the one person who had accepted him had turned out to be insane. She mopped the floor and let out little sobs. She planned to just leave the IV in Gaara until he passed. It seemed better if he didn't have to suffer anymore. Temari looked at her with horror. "S-Sakura..why are you crying." Sakura cried harder and couldn't look at Temari. "Tema..can you..take the truth?" Temari nodded. "Yes..What is it?" Sakura looked at the blonde girl who was Gaara's sister. "Temari..I'm not going to wake him up..it's better that he die in his sleep. It would be so much more painful if he were awake. I think he may live two or three days..no more." Temari let out a wail and fell to the ground. Her other brother, Kankuro, walked in.
"What's wrong Tema?" she sobbed and clinger to his shirt. "He's gonna die Kankuro. He's got an estimates two or three days..Sakura's not even going to wake him up." Temari sobbed and Kankuro cried silently. Sakura did so openly, hovering over Gaara.

The next day, Temari annoced that the leaf had a new Kage. Kankuro would be taking Gaara's. It was finally exposed that the sand kage had been very sick and was going to pass soon. A few of the other kages smiled sadly, the other ones had tears in there eyes. "Were so sorry for your lose.." A white haired Kage said. Temari nodded. "He's not quite gone yet, but soon. She saw tha Gem was gone. She later found a note from her. Temari was glad that Gem was leaving and not going to bother them. She said so out loud and the meter of Gaara's heart went in a flat line.

Her mind was still in a whirl over everything that had happened, she couldn’t get Gaara off her mind and she had a feeling something was wrong, badly badly wrong. Still she walked on heading back to her home village to take it back from the man who thought to take her place as Kage. But every so often she would stop and look back worry and something else pulling her back the other way. She settled down for camp way to early just feeling plain exhausted, curling up on her bed roll she had the oddest dream. An old man came to her and handed her a vial that could cure any sickness, when she asked where he had gotten it the man shook his head putting his finger to his lips. She could get no answer out of him. Than her dream changed she was standing in a room with Gaara and he was dying blood littered the floor, he was pale and dead seeming as he lay prone on the bed an IV stuck in his arm. She still held the vial in her dream she tipped the contents into the IV bag and stepped back, watching as color returned to Gaara’s face and the sickness that had been claiming him for so long was cured. When she woke after only two hours sleep she packed up camp and headed right back towards the ice clan. She knew Gaara was sick and intended to be with him even if he didn’t want her to. Unknown to her tucked inside the deepest part of her bag was the vial from her dream.

Picking up her pace she nearly ran the entire way back, she was out of breath by the time she got back. Ash was at teh meeting in her place, all the Kages were but she had no thoughts for them. Her gut kept pulling her upstairs, not giving herself time to rest she ran upstairs and pushed open the nurses door ignoring the two girls that glared bloody murder at her. Brushing past them she went to the bed where Gaara lay, just like in her dream. Frowning she looked down at her hand, stupid to think she would have the vial. Throwing down her bag she was surprised to hear something clink hard against the floor. She didn't have any glass in there, digging through the bag she pulled out the vial and just sat starring at it in amazement.

Sakura glared at Gem, but Temari stared nimbly at the heart monitor. "Maybe it's broken..." Temari said, sounding like a confused child at the dead of a loved one. Sakura moved her aside and felt Gaara's neck. "No pulse Temari.." She whispered in a tone of pain and fear. She didn't know what they would do without him. She'd already noticed that Temari looked like she might lose her mind. She looked at Gem and then the vial. "He's already dead..no need to kill him now." she was giving Gem the meanest glare ever. "Feel free to try, but he's already dead..so go ahead..see..." Sakura hugged Gaara's limp body in her arms. He was so beautiful, even in death. Sakura really wondered how he could still look so sweet when he was lifeless. They bothe stared at the fresh corpse. "Let's give him a good funeral..." Sakura suggested.

Ignoring the both of them she stood up clutching the vial tightly, in her dream it cured all sickness it said nothing about death, but honestly what was there to lose? Uncorking the vial she took a small sniff and pulled back whatever the stuff was it was strong. Opening the IV bag she dumped the contents in unsure of what would actually happen. If Gaara was dead what effect would this have on him? If Gaara was dead what would happen to the demon inside him? Or his clan? Nothing looked to be happening and she felt so out of place among the grieving girls who knew him so well. Gem’s eyes started to tear up again but still she grabbed her pack and backed out of the room to give the two time to say their goodbyes. She cursed herself for coming to late for him, swiping at her eyes she did the only thing that made sense to her right now, she went on the roof. She always felt better when she was up high looking down on the view below. Hopping easily from rooftop to rooftop she ended up at the outskirts of the village on the highest rooftop she could find looking out on the white countryside.

The monitor started beeping slowly, then built up speed. Sakura stared and Temari acctully smiled.
It became normal and the color was returning to Gaara's face and body. His flesh seemed to expand. Sakura was kind of afraid. His ribs no longer showed and were replaced with a well toned chest. He was begining to look like he had before anything happened. Sakura wondered what had been in that bottle. She ripped the IV out of his arm and Gaara's eyes fluttered soon after. When he opened his eyes, the looked shiny and even more beautiful. His hair had back it's luster and he looked like a god. Sakura was starting and Temari was hugging him. Gaara coughed once and Sakura was worried that the vial had backfired, but he only did once and it was because Temari was squeezing him so hard. Gaara looked down at hisself. He looked confused. "am I? Am I in hevan? Did you guys die too?" Sakura laughed. "No. Gem had a vial and brought you back to life with some sort of miracle meds. She apologized for her guards behavior and said she had no intentions of ripping your eyes from their sockets." Gaara frowned. "Then were is she?" "She still thinks you're dead, she left a little while ago. All I know is that she went outside." Gaara sighed and went to complete a habit he hadn't been able to do while he was sick. He climbed on to the roof and sat, staring at the stars. He saw a figure on the tallest building in the city. He jumped stealthily, landing right behind the stranger. A cloak Shiites his face. His voice had become deeper and more melodic since he had gotten better. "Hello, Geema." he said calmly. He sat down behind her, cross-legged. He had on a large, blck cloak, and underneath a fishnet muscle shirt and black jeans. He also had brought a coat just in case he wanted to take off the cloak. He pulled down the hood as soon as she turned around. His eyes looked into hers.

((the hotel had wifi, so I'll still be commenting, maybe even more than I usually do :D I just got here about 10 mi urea ago.))

(Lol that's nice to know I hope you have some fun at the beach. Remember to use some sunblock wouldn't want you to burn)

She played a game by herself that she used to play when her father was still alive, she hadn’t played the game in years but it was something to do that would distract her from the guilty sadness that lay in her heart. The stars twinkled merrily like they mocked her, Gem shook her head stars couldn’t mock. What to do now though? She had come back for nothing really, the vial hadn’t even worked, where had it even come from anyway? It was just a fluke thing, there had been no evidence of anyone coming to her camp while she slept, and always a light sleeper Gem would have awoken had there been. Since the mystery vial hadn’t worked the next best thing seemed to be to go back to her clan and beat back the usurper, Gemma sighed there didn’t seem to be much of a point. She didn’t really have a chance of winning if the Kage of the clan was decided upon by the strongest fighter she wouldn’t have won, as it was the only reason she had the clan was that she had inherited the leadership from her father. Gem wasn’t a weakling at all, but she definitely didn’t have the experience or strength that she did.
A voice behind her startled her out of her thoughts and instinctively her nails grew into sharp claws that could rip and tear if need be. Turning on him she was shocked speechless. It was Gaara though not as he had been or what she was used to seeing. But a Gaara as he had surely been before he got sick. A well toned handsome young man whose eyes she nearly got lost in. ”Gaara?” was all she could get out. Wait Gaara was dead, so who was this young man right behind her that looked so much like him? Unless the vial had actually worked.

((ok :D I'll defiantly use sunscreen lol I'm so white if I dont I'll turn into a lobster.))

Gaara smiled. "Yes..it's me, Gaara. I came to say thank you." he sat and pulled her down with him. "Sit, standing to long is not good for your legs." he was staring at her intensely. He almost wanted to run away now. It was to romantic put here and it made him feel a bit akward. The stars were shining brightly and the moon was large. He shivered as he felt his arm brush across her on accident. This was making him feel so giddy. "S-So um...whatcha doin out here all alone." his voice shook a bit. He refused to look at her, arias if he looked into her eyes he might do something embarrassing. "I'm sorry for not giving you a chance before, your guard scared me pretty bad." he smiled weakly. He felt so stupid acting like a school boy. He felt shy and wanted to tell her how much he liked her, but he was afraid of what might happen if she didn't feel the same. He was silent now and nothing to say. He looked at the moon and thought.

(Lol you and me both, last time I went to the beach I burned so bad. I wouldn't want that to happen to you)

Gem sat down beside him blushing at that simple contact, it was silly but being near him made her feel giddy and strangely shy and nervous. Licking her lips nervously she ran her fingers through her short dirty blonde hair to distract herself. ”I’m really sorry about Tak, he’s positively insane, but Ash insists that I use him as my guard just because he’s so loyal to me not to mention he’s strong as a god damn ox her breath caught as his arm brushed her making butterflies take flight in her stomach. ”But you have to know I never would have let him do any of those things anyway, he likes to scare people” she shrugged looking up at the stares to distract herself. It was overwhelming Gaara was okay, the vial had actually worked and he didn’t hate her anymore, and although her clan was still in trouble she was happy just for this small miracle. Gem had never been one to give into impulsiveness but today she did flashing a happy smile at Gaara right before she threw her arms around him hugging him to her. ”I’m so happy you’re okay Gaara you had everyone so worried”

Gaara gasp at the sudden contact, certainly not expecting to hugged."O-oh...um..t-thanks?" he stuttered nervously. His face was dark red. I'm glad y-you didn't let Tak get me." he tried to smile, but it didn't look like a very happy smile. He was so nervous, he was shaking. He pulled out of the hug. He wasn't really used to people touching him at all, particularly pretty girls. He fidgeted with his fingers. "So...what's been going on with the meetings in my absence?" he knew work was a stupid subject, but he had no idea what else he could possibly say. Silence was defiantly not an option, it would only make him feel more akward. "Have any treaties been made? How's my representative been behaving? I really hope he hasn't been a pain in the ass. He can be kind of annoying at times." he wanted to disappear so bad. He thought he sounded stupid and he knew he was talking like a grown man. Teenagers didn't normally discuss work as a past time. "Do you find me to be strange?" he asked suddenly. He wondered if she thought he was boring to be around or maybe just a weirdo.

He pulled out of her hug like he thought her a leper, maybe he hadn’t really forgiven her yet, or he just plain didn’t like her and the only reason he was here in the first place was to thank her for saving him. A hurt look flashed across her face before she quickly replaced it with a blank look. Work he would rather talk about work well that was just fine then. ”I wouldn’t really know aside from today’s meeting, your representative seemed to act alright. I planned on heading back to my clan soon anyway, Ash will take my place and any treaty we reach will be signed by him. I hope we reach a peace because such needless fighting amongst ourselves only reduces our numbers” she said looking away from him out over the white country, it started to snow again and she shivered, the cold reaching through her thin long sleeved shirt. A thought occurred to her and just as quickly as she had it she dismissed it, he would never go for it. His clan was strong and there was no way they would want an alliance with her Lion clan if the treaty fell through. ”Hopefully things will go alright” she shrugged, as Kage’s work was never far from their minds. ”I don’t think your weird or strange just a teenager with too much responsibility like me, other teenagers get to worry about boyfriends and girlfriends, clothes, school, studying and things like that. We get to worry about treaties, alliances, and how to keep our clan strong so we don’t get taken over”

Gaara sighed. "Our lives suck..I just want to be a boy..I don't want to rule a clan." he couldn't belive he had just said all of that. "Listen, don't tell anyone I said that, ok..I just feel like, I don't know, maybe you can understand." he looked into her eyes. He sighed. "Maybe..maybe you could be my friend. I don't have really good people skills, but I could learn. I haven't really had a lot of friends. I don't know if you can forgive me for starting that stupid conversation. I just felt kinda nervous. Cause..I acctully kind of..like you..a lot.." he blushed madly. He gulped and felt kind of jittery. All he wanted to do was run. He stomach was all fuzzy and felt like butterflies.

”We can’t help what we were born to do Gaara, it’s not like we had a choice. If I did do you think I would choose to rule my own clan at seventeen? No, but now that I am I wouldn’t wish it any other way, my clan, my people, they are my family and I want to watch over them. Yes it would be cool to have friends, to get to act like a regular teenager, but we aren’t regular Gaara we are Kage’s.” Gem shrugged trying to look anywhere but at him, it was a losing battle she kept glancing up at him, their eyes locked and she felt lost in his eyes. ”Us be friends? I wouldn’t mind that, I want to have friends, be your friend” his words brought a blush to her cheeks and her heart started to race, him like her? ”Despite what Tak did” she joked trying hard not to give into the nervous stutter that threatened. ”I… I l-like you too G-Gaara” she said softly had she just admitted that? To him a guy who probably had girls chasing him left and right, a guy who could and probably did get any girl he wanted

Gaara smiled softly when she said she liked him too. He leaned in and caressed her face, pressing his lips to hers. He was soft with the kiss at first, but built the passion. He wrapped his arms around her waist, but suddenly stopped and backed away. He looked afraid and maybe a little torn. He was relizing what he had really just done. He had just kissed her. He didn't even know if she liked him. He stared at her. "I-I..I'm sorry..I shouldn't have.." he moved his gaze to the ground. He felt horrible. He had wanted to be her friend and even more, but he may have even ruined the chance of them being friends.

His touch made her breath catch as he caressed her cheek, she couldn't breath as his lips came closer and closer to hers until finally they were on hers, his arms around her pulling her against him. Warmth exploded in her stomach as his gentle kiss turned into one full of passion. Just as quickly though it was over and he pulled away, Gem touched her lips her breath coming in soft pants that had been her first kiss, she didn't know what she expected but it hadn't been that. "I-it's o-okay Gaara, I've just um never been kissed before..." she trailed off avoiding his eyes, did his kiss mean that he liked her? Really liked her? But then Sakura's words came back to haunt her, yes Gaara may like her, but only for a week he got over girls fast. Gemma would probably end up as nothing more then a fling to him, meaningless. But still it didn't stop her from wanting to kiss him again, feel his arms around her. "Gaara I like you, I mean really like you and I don't know what that kiss meant but.... well I liked it" she said in a soft voice, so soft she wasn't sure he heard her.

He stared at her. "I-I.." he trailed off and the started agian. "I need to go talk to my sister for a moment..I just sort of dashed off. Shell be worried by now." he gave her an akward hug. "I like you to..I just..nevermind.." he jumped off the roof and landed on the next, containing this pattern until he was back in his room. Temari hugged him. "You idiot! Tell me where you're going next time! I was worried sick." she looked into his face a saw a lot of pain. She was suprized. "Gaara? What's wrong?" he sighed. "I like Gemma..I mean..like I REALLY like Gem..in fact it's stronger than what I felt for Ino that time we went out." Temari gasped. Ino had been the pig that had dumped him. "Youre afraid aren't you.." it was a statement not a question. Gaara simply frowned. His lip twiched as he held back the tears that threatened to pour from him. "I can't do this agian. Something will go wrong and I'll feel horrible. I hate that feeling. When you're all alone and you've been cast aside. She says she really likes me too...but once she figures out how I am..shell hate me." Temari shook her head. Gaara had always been hated for carrying that horrid demon I side of him. Children used to call him a freak or monster. Girls that dated him always threw him away after they were told what he carried. Temari sucked in a breath. "She already knows what you are, Gaara..she obviously doesnt mind it." Gaara frowned. "But she has no idea what my demon cam do. She's never seem what happens when that horrid creature escapes." Temari sat Gara on his bed and kissed the small kanji on his forehead. "I'll be back.." she dashed out the window and went to find Gem. She wanted to find out just how much Gen cared for him. If this girl was just playing with his emotions, Temari was prepared to tell her off and steer Gaara in a better direction. If she really cared, shed help them get together. She stopped two inches behind Gem. "Gemma? Can we talk?"

Tears threatened as she watched Gaara take off, she was tempted to follow him but what could she do? Grab him and make him talk to her? Admit how much she liked him? What would he possibly think they hadn’t even known each other for more than a day or two and here she would be blurting out how much she liked him. He would think she was crazy or something or creepy. It actually surprised her the intensity of her liking for him, they seemed to share a bond or something that made her just want to be near him. She knew he felt it too or he never would have admitted he liked her. Sighing she swiped her hand over her eyes wiping away the few tears that had managed to slip out, with the way he ran away he either was too afraid to admit his feelings or he didn’t like her as much as she liked him and just had to get away.
A soft thud behind her had her turning an apology on her lips, she expected it to be Gaara back to explain himself. Instead it was his sister, the sister who had never cared much for her in the first place though Gem could understand that. Hopefully now she would have a better opinion of the girl who had saved her brother. ”Talk yeah sure we can talk, I can only assume it’s about Gaara huh?” she knew she had hit the nail on the head from the look on Temari’s face. Patting the set beside her she scooted over a bit to give Temari room. ”Let’s talk than”

Temari sat and sighed. "Listen...you know I don't like you very much..mostly because you're another kage and kages don't normally get along with each other. However, Gaara seems to crazy about you. In fact, he may like you the most of anyone he had ever. He's afraid you might hate him and throw him away. I know youve only known each other for two days, but he seems like you a lot already." Temari's frowned. "I'm willing to get you two together if you really like him." she suddenly glared at Gem like she might kill her. "But I promise, if you break his heart..lets just go with I'll break you're face." Temari heard the sound of a man screaming. Temari looked afraid. "Gaara.." she whispered. She carried Gem and jumped back to the room. Tak was laying on the ground, his hands over his bloody face. Gaara was standing there, his claws out and his teeth were sharp. His eyes were gold and had thin black slits for pupils. He didn't see Temari and Gem. Temari shoved Gem down and the two hid behind the wall. "He'll kill us if he finds us..stay put. Temari peaked to see what was happening. Gaara stood above the big man. "So...what was that. You said you would rip my eyes out..hmm? Isn't that what you said?" Tak was shivering. The claws on Gaara's hands were bloody and Temari was afraid of what he may have done. Tak stood and Temari nearly threw up. Gaara had taken out his eyes and it appeared as if Tak was crying blood. Tak looked angry. "You kissed her. You took her away. I will kill you." Gaara laughed, but it wasn't Gaara's voice. It was the demon. "Will you now? I'm ready." Gaara had a long tail made of sand and ears as well. Tak stabbed Gaara in the stomach, but it was simply blocked by sand that protected him. Gaara stabbed Tak in the neck with his claws. "Try harder.." Gaara growled. Gaara groaned as two needles got him right in the jugular. Blood flowed from the wound and he feel to his knees. Tak grabbed him by his hair. Gaara yelped. "Die demon child!" the eyeless man bit down hard on Gaara's neck, using his cat teeth. Gaara screamed and jerked around crazily. He gasped as the pain went all through his body. His eyes flickered between normal and demon eyes. When Tak dropped him, the wound instantly healed and Gaara was himself agian. Tak was standing over him. "What do you want you bastard?" Gaara screamed at him. "You stole my woman." Tak growled. "Your woman? She thinks you're insane!" Tak got ready to kill Gaara.

”I would never hurt Gaara, I like him to much just the thought of doing something like that…” she trailed off shaking her head. A scream rent the air sounding heart wrenchingly familiar to Gem, to her it sounded like Tak. If Temari hadn’t picked her up as if Gem weighed nothing, yes Gem was slime but and tiny but Temari was awfully strong, and darted down towards the source of the noise. Gem’s heart was in her throat as she saw the scene before her, it was Gaara but something was wrong. Badly wrong he had a tail and ears made of sand, his eyes were demonic and the claws on his hands dripped blood. He stood over Tak laughing darkly, if Temari hadn’t grabbed her and pulled her to the side she would have been at his side instantly. Sure Tak could be an insuperable ass but he was still part of Gem’s clan she was his Kage she needed to protect him, where his eyes should have been were black holes and blood made rivers down his cheeks. What was wrong with Gaara? Sakura had mentioned a demon right? This must be it. But why had Tak sought Gaara out, or maybe it was the other way around either way it seemed he knew about the kiss. Why he would care though was beyond her. But once Gaara was on the ground with the now eyeless Tak standing over him she couldn’t take it anymore, darting around Temari she grabbed Tak’s arm where a dagger lay in his palm more than ready to kill the man he couldn’t see. ”Tak stop, don’t” her eyes were wide with fright, she had never seen Tak this angry before. Her heart was hammering but she wasn’t about to let go ”Tak please come with me we’ll look at your eyes” she spoke in a soothing voice almost as if she were talking to an angry animal. Temari would have to take care of Gaara, the only person who could calm Tak down right now was her.

Tak swated Gem aside. "Go away! You took him over me! I hate you!" he was ready to kill Gemma. He hated her now. That pissed Gaara off to no end. He jumped on the giant mans back and jabbed a long, curved dagger into his back. "How dare you! I'll kill you runt!" Tak screamed. "You took my eyes, you took my Gemma, AND NOW YOU DARE TRY AND TAKE MY LIFE?! DIE RUNT!!" Tak stabbed upward into Gaara's chest. This one pierced Gaara's body like he was made of butter. Tak ripped it back out, pulled some of Gaara's flesh with it. He starred at the blood that ran all down his body. He didn't scream or cry or even show that it hurt. He just seemed stunned. Tak laughed evily. His eyes had somehow grown back and he was staring at the helpless teenage child before him. "I forgot to mention. I'm not just from the clan of the lions. I'm also from the sound clan. Was can heal faster than any clan alive today. We can even regrow organs. Can you do that little raccoon?" Gaara growled and spit blood in Tak's face. "Suck my dick, sound creep." he threw six knives at Tak. Every single one hit target and Tak fell to the ground, unmistakably dead. Temari felt the man's pulse.
"He's dead Gemma.." Temari whispered. Gaara seemed fascinated by the blood that flowed down hos now bare top half. It made Temari sick to look at the mess that uses to be flawless, creamy, smooth flesh. Gaara screamed and doubled over as his blood began to freeze in the horrible cold. He shivered and fell to the ground. Temari pulled him and Gem inside. She also called Sakura up to the room. Sakura didn't seem so concered and rolled her eyes. "Idiot.." she ripped some of the frozen blood off of Gaara's chest, causing Gaara to scream in pain, and the blood to flow crazily from his wound.
Sakura placed her hands over it and it began to heal itself. "Healing Justsu...art of the body sealing." Sakura murmured. The flesh began to look normal within minutes and was soon nothing but the same flawless white skin as the rest. There wasn't even a scar. Sakura hit him over the head. "Idiot?! Stop trying to get yourself killed." Gaara sighed. "He started it." Sakura frowned and Temari slapped him. "You jerk! You killed him?!" Gaara glared daggers at her. "Well sorry! I guess I was sapossed to allow him to rip the eyes out of my head and give them to Gemma as a early birthday present!" he stormed off cursing about how Temari was a dumb bitch and his life sucked. He went back outside and ran as far as he could until he was tired, cold, and quite lost. That pissed him off further. He threw a rock at the window of an old abandoned house. He cursed and threw lots of rocks until the wondoews were shattered. It made him feel a little better. He climbed in one window. He was going to stay here for the night. It was to dark to find his way back to the hotel.
