As we walked home Kankuro and Temari began to bicker about which strategy was best when fighting someone new for the first time, and me, having the bipolar sense of humor decided to join in

"obviously going all out is best!" Kankuro snapped "you scare your opponent into backing off, thinking that your holding back" he tried to explain, but Temari was having none of it

"you should use Taijutsu, this way your opponent thinks your weak and holds back, creating more openings!" Temari argued. Kankuro was just about to reply when I said

"what you should do is work with your non dominant side, that way, when your opponent thinks he's got you beat, you can switch hands and gain the upper hand!" the two just blinked before going off on me

"how can that gain you the upperhand? we're no good with our non dominant side!" Kankuro pressed

"wouldn't that just make it harder for you to do jutsu's?" Temari put in. I smirked and we got into a heated discussion on non dominant fighting, and before I knew it we were walking into the living room, bickering our faces off, all the while I had to hide my own grin

"just face it Kankuro, my theory is far superior to-" I stopped when I noticed Gaara standing in front of me, arms crossed and eyes wide and shocked. I almost smiled at him

"oh hey Gaara" I said. Kankuro and Temari looked a little worried and I stepped in front of my teammates to help them feel secure. Gaara noticed this and his eyes zeroed in on me

"where were you guys?" he asked quietly. I relaxed a little

"we were training" I replied

"together?" he queried

"yes"

"for how long?"

"since just after you left"

"did you show them the arrow-"

"no"

"oh" he said. The three siblings were all staring at me shocked and I blinked at them.

"what?" I asked. maybe there was something on my face? Gaara was the one to speak

"your- you-...." he paused as if trying to clear his thoughts

"your smiling" he mumbled. immediately I forced the smile off my face and avoided there shocked faces.

"oh" I said. I turned to smirk at Kankuro and Temari "thank you for training and talking with me... i never... thank you" I murmured, then before any of them could say anything I disappeared into my room, closed the door and looked curiously in the mirror, my smile slowly appeared and I mentally gasped at how friendly I looked with it on. I fell asleep with that very smile on my face, for the first time since I could remember.

I woke as the sun rose and the pink lights streamed in through the window. I dressed in a regular black kimono, put my bow and quiver on my back and walked out of my room to the kitchen where Kankuro sat and ate his cereal. I smirked at him

"good morning Kankuro" I said, pulling out a mango and biting into it. He looked up and smiled, cereal spilling out of his mouth. i groaned

"eww!" i said. he smirked and went back to his cereal. Temari and Gaara walked in and took one look at me, chomping on a mango and glaring at Kankuro, and Kankuro with cereal all down his front smirking and gave each other a WTF look. i smirked at them
