Sandy, Bloody, Cookie Sweet Love

Chapter 19

Mizumii's POV

I'm finally returning to the leaf village. I've been gone for 2 years, and now I'm coming home.

I saw a man with white hair and a teen with yellow hair. Their scent was so familiar. Then it hit me.

"JIRAIYA! NARUTO!" I called and ran toward them.

"I'm sorry but do I know you?" I forgot I changed again. I pointed to my ears.

"Mizumii?" Naruto asked.

"Yeah, I went through another neko change. I had to cut my hair too." I said. Naruto's jaw dropped.

"Wow Mizumii. You look amazing."

"Why thank you."

"Research." Jiraiya changed this percentage: 0%.

"Research me and doctor's will have to research why and how your cock is up your ass."

"Still a bitch I see" Naruto said.

"The bitchiest." I smiled. We walked through the gates together and I pointed to my ears so I had no trouble continuing through. Naruto climbed a telephone pole and Sakura walked over.

"Who are you?" Sakura asked.

"Why does nobody notice the bunny ears?" Sakura saw my ears.

"MIZUMII!"

"Yup, hey Konohamaru. I see you're a genin now."

"Uh-huh" Konohamaru fiddled with his headband a bit.

"Well I'm headed to the Hokage's office. I'll see you there in a sec." and with that I left. I burst through Tsunade's office door.

"Hey granny. I'm back." She looked at me pissed.

"Mizumii? What the hell?"

"Oh my gosh SOMEONE remembers me."

"Yes well you must wait for Naruto and Sakura to get here." Then Shizune, Tsunade's secretary/assistant, walked in.

"Naruto and Sakura are here M'Lady."

"Bring them in." They came in and we talked for a bit. Then Shikamaru and Temari walked in.

"SHIKA! TEMARI!" I ran over and hugged them.

"Who the hell are you?" Shikamaru asked.

"Shika... you don't remember me?" He thought a bit.

"MIZU! IS IT REALLY YOU!?"

"Yup. I went through another neko change."

"So, Mizumii. Shikamaru told me that you admitted you loved Gaara after you kissed on the cheek after the Sasuke retrieval mission. Is it true?" Temari was smirking as she was speaking. I blushed, no one else in that room knew.

"You like Gaara?" Naruto and Sakura said in unison.

"I don't 'like him'" I said

"She 'LOVES' him" Temari said. We left and started walking around the village. Naruto asked Shikamaru if Temari and him were dating. Then they went threw this whole, 'you're the only genin' thing.

"And Gaara. What about Gaara?"

"He made kazekage" I started jumping up and down.

"That's the best! I can't wait to see him in his kazekage clothes." I was so excited. Well, after a while me, Sakura, Naruto, and Kakashi were got a mission.

"The Kazekage has been kidnapped by the Akatsuki." My heart made a large thump and stopped beating. Gaara was in danger.

"H-how did they get him?" I said, swallowing the lump in my throat.

"He was beaten in battle." I almost fell to my knees and balled right there.

"Let's go. NOW!" I was out the door before anyone could say anything. I was at the village gates before anyone.

"Let's go people." I was not gonna let the love of my life die. We left, and after a while bumped into Temari. We told her what was going on and started for Suna again.

Naruto started tearing up as he started talking about how important it was to save Gaara and why he had such a strong bond with him. I was crying because I was scarred for his life. When someone said they wanted to stop, I snapped, then when Kakashi said we were, I stopped, without wanting to. I never slept and just wanted to get to Gaara.

We finally got to Suna and had to heal Kankuro. When we finally left to go to the Akatsuki lair, I was off. We got slowed down by Itachi, ok, an imitation of Itachi.

We finally got to the Akatsuki lair and got in. I was in full pissed form. Black chakra and red eyes, only this was way more dangerous than usual. This guy that reminded me of Ino was SITTING on Gaara.

Naruto snapped first. I didn't snap, my black chakra disappeared, and my eyes went back to blue. And I fell to the ground, well, water, and tears started down my face.

"Gaara? Gaara. GAARA!!!!" I was screaming his name through my tears. I put my hands on the water and cried harder. We were too late.
