Blood or Love?

Chapter 5- I Dont Want Your Pity!

(No one POV)

"I will kill you..." Akuma growled, being dragged into an alley. The stranger let her go and when she was about to kill him, he wrapped sand around around Akuma's arms and legs, imprisioning her.

Knowing that she should should have just ran, she tsked and frowned, regretting her stupid and silly actions. There was no way she could escape and prepared herself for death.

"Go ahead...Kill me...Now is your chance" Akuma said. She shut her eyes, awaiting some sharp pain or whatever death felt like.

"I'm not going to kill you."

Akuma was releaved for a while, opening her eyes slowly. "You're.....not...?" He shook his head. Then she frowned. "Is this out of pity? It better not be! I'm not some sort of weakling that begs to live...!" The stranger didn't react. This irked Akuma more.

"Just kill me!"

"This is  not out of pity...I do not kill for no reason....Unless you pose a threat towards this village. However, watching you during these past few days, I've seen no such intention..." He waved his hand and the sand went off Akuma's body and into his large gourd. "...!" Akuma's eyes widened. She had never seen such jutsu in her life before.

The stranger began walking away slowly and Akuma looked at the bear in her hand. "Wait!" she called after the stranger.

He turned around, looking confused. He just stood there, waiting for a statement. "Who are you...? I'm pretty darn sure that it's time for me to find out who you are..."

He raised an invisble eyebrow in amusement. "And you're right...I'm Gaara of the Sand, Kazekage of the Village Hidden in the Sand..."

Akuma was stunned, replaying what she had almost done. Fear tingled through her and relief. If he didn't have that sand, then he would have been dead, and she whould have killed the Kazekage. A war might have started because of her! She gripped tighter into the handle of her sword, a chill going down her spine.

"You can't kill me that easily. That attack with the sword was slow and loud, not fast and silent at all." Akuma glared at Gaara. "You really know how to get on my nerves..." "And I'm not even trying to" 'Prick' Akuma thought.

Akuma froze when she heard familiar footsteps walkings behind her. She sweatdropped. "Nice of you to stop by..." A smack was on her head. 'Bloodthirsty Demon of Konoha, getting smacked on the head by her adoptive father...Yup...that totally makes me look badass in front of the Kazekage...' Akuma thought, rubbing the bump on her forehead.

Gaara had just stood there, crossing his arms paitently. Kakashi held Akuma's head and forced her to bow respectfully, which he had also did next to her.

"I'm very sorry for the trouble Akuma had caused..." Kakashi said in a serious tone. "It's no problem." "Hey, you're the one that dragged me out of the store-" Kakashi hand muffled whatever else she was about to say.

"She tends to swing that sword and point it at anyone's throat, threatening their lives, so please understand..." "Now don't tell him my flaws! I barely even know the guy-" Kakashi replaced his hand im front of Akuma's mouth.

"Of course; Excuse me as I take my leave now..." Gaara said formally, turning around and walked away.

"Mfhgouy..." Akuma said, words all muffled. Kakashi removed his hand, rasing an eyebrow. "What was that?" Killjoy" Akuma spat.

Kakashi rolled his eyes. "Nevermind. I'd prefer if you keep that mouth of yours shut..." "I'd prefer it open..." Kakashi gave her a serious look. "I wasn't asking a favor..."

Akuma grumbled something as she walked home next to Kakashi.

Kakashi decided to keep quiet about Kiba, not wanting her "friend friend" to actually turn out to be a fake. Maybe she would find out and Kakashi feared what she would do if she did. The thought was horrifying.

(Kiba POV)

My lips curled into a smile. 'Kakashi keeping a secret about me...? Well, I'd prefer to keep it that way...I still haven't seen her fight yet...I'll follow her until then.' I looked at the sun. It was sunet.

'My time is almost up. She better do something or my intel that I have right now is just fluff...' I blended into the crowd following the pair.
