12 year old Sakuya Fujikami is a young ninja of the Village Hidden in the Leaves. She originally came from her island home of The Land of Blossoms but went to live in the Hidden Leaf Village with Kakashi Hatake as her Guardian. At the age of 12, Sak...
"S-Sakura. Hey, uh, Sakura? Earth to Sakura!" I call, standing on a tree branch before a red haired boy with the right side transformed into this thing.
"What do you want?!" She demands hotly.
I point to in front of me as I ask, "This guy over here, who the hell is he?"
Sakura glares at me as Pakkun says, "His outward appearance may be different, but he's the one you know as Gaara." I gasp as I remember Gaara telling Shikamaru, Sakuya and I that his father sealed a One Tailed Beast in him to make Gaara the strongest of shinobi as an unborn.
"So this was what he was talking about!" I think fearfully.
"Hey, little girl," Pakkun says to Sakura. "I guess now would be the time to tell you I'm not the fighting type."
Sakura says angrily, "I can see that by looking at you!"
"What do you want?" Gaara demands. "So, it's you. You're the one I didn't kill that day." I gasp when I realise he's referring to that day in the hospital, and remember he said he lives only for himself and love only himself. As long as there are people in this world, he'll never disappear.
I tremble with fear and tense upon seeing Gaara about to attack. I throw my arm towards Sakura and the others as I warn, "Guys!! Get up! We have to go now!"
I widen my eyes when Gaara leaps right past me, aiming for my friends, sand claw outstretched.
Sakura slowly turns, mint green eyes wide, as Gaara roars, "Die, Sasuke Uchiha!!" Just then, a pink blur zooms in front of Sasuke, on his hands and arms with his head bent, and stops on the branch. Long, shiny pink hair, hime bangs and red kimono sway as the figure throws out their arms, lips pressed tightly together. Gaara gasps and stops short on a branch before Sakuya, her pink eyes fierce and unwavering. "It's you!"
"Sakuya!!" Sakura and I cry happily. Upon second glance, I can see that she's injured with a wound her right arm. Homura lands beside me, looking just as injured. Sakuya stares down Gaara, who seems to hesitate.
Sakuya's P. O. V:
"Sakuya! Are you alright?" Naruto calls.
"Just a few scratches I'd gained on my way here, Naruto-kun. No biggie," I say, gaze still fixated on the Sand ninja. I don't feel an ounce of fear in my eyes at all, even when I'm taking in Gaara's true form. "Gaara, stop. I know you don't want to do this."
"Get out of my way, or I'll kill you, too," He warns me.
"I'm not afraid of you, Gaara," I say as I slowly lower my arms.
"You're not going to run away after seeing my true form?" Gaara asks, sneering.
"I'm not afraid, Gaara," I repeat, taking a step forward. That look doesn't leave my eyes.
"Stay back! Stop looking at me like that! With those... those eyes!" Gaara seethes, taking a step backward.
