The Shadow and The Sand ( Gaara love story)

Chapter 23

Sorry for the long wait. I've had some serious writersblock and I honestly have given up on this story

Yorus POV

'I wonder what I should do today.'

It has been three days since my littler run in with Gaara. And needless to say I'm bored out of my mind.

Aimlessly walking through the village I stopped when I heard a voice yelling behind me.

"You whore! Stop trying to steal away my fiancé! He. Is. Mine!"

With my back still facing the source of the voice I crossed my arms.

"Geez Matsuri. Don't you ever just give up? Making a scene will not make you look good or make me look bad. The villagers here know who I am. They've known me since I was little and they know that I'm not that kind of girl. I respect that you and Gaara are engaged. But what I don't understand is you trying to destroy my reputation."

Turning I looked at Matsuri with an emotionless face. Then a small smirk appeared.

"But you should know that if Gaara ends up haveing feeling for me and wants to marry me instead I will not question it."

Matsuri turned red in anger and raised her fists.

"As if he would ever leave me! He had no other choice but to marry me! And the elders won't be happy to hear that you are planning to ruin our engagement and they will sever the ties with this village and would declare war!"

I was about to respond when I felt a disturbance.

"Watch out!"

I quickly ran over to Matsuri and covered us both with my shadows. A loud explosion sounded from out side the shield.

Moving the shadows away I looked up at where the attack came from.

"Y-Yoru! W-What was that?!"

Ignoring her I continued to look up when my eyes landed on the figure atop of the Kage building. Eyes narrowing I started to snarl.

"Henta."

Jumping in to the air I disappeared and reappeared behind Henta. Throwing a punch it hit him on the back of the head sending him flying.

Crouching on the edge of the building I waited for him to reappear.

"Looking for me?"

My eyes slightly widened as I jumped away from him and my shadows prevent multiple kunais from hitting me.

Now on the opposite side of the building roof we glared at each other.

"A little more spontaneous now aren't we? Who knew the ever so tactical demon could act on impulse."

Smirking, Henta gave a small laugh as my glare hardened.

"What are you doing here."

His smirk seemed to get wider after hearing my question.

"Well to answer your question my precious Yoru. I'm here to take you away."

With that he ran at me with blinding speed. I closed my eyes than opened them revealing my Shadow eye. Seeing his movements I was able to doge everyone of his attacks.

"Those eyes of yours are going to be troublesome."

Landing a punch on his side we separated and glared at each other. Waiting for each other to make the first move.
