"Who are you?" Jiro shouted as I dusted myself down and watched the figure.

"Not who I am... What I am... Why am I here? Why do I seek you?" the person replied, their voice was young and feminine.

The hell is this person going on about with that whole "what I am" speech? If you want to be mysterious, try again.

The hood of their cloak rustled in the wind and fell to reveal a young girl, maybe around Temari's age?

She had silver hair, blue eyes tanned skin and a serious but extremely beautiful face.

"What the hell?" I muttered, frowning, "fine. What are you? Why are you here?"

"I am a ninja of the stars. I am here because I have been sent here," she says. I share a confused look with Jiro.

For a moment I almost had to fight the urge to laugh.

'ninja of the stars'? What kind of embarrassing group of nin is that?

"By who then?" Jiro asked.

"By who is the question, isn't it?" she asked, I sighed and tapped Jiro's shoulder.

We're not getting anywhere with this, and I don't think waiting for Gaara to return to his office and read my note will be a good plan.

"Go get Lord Kazekage, Lady Temari, or Lord Kankuro. I'll distract her for a bit," I told him, he nodded and disappeared within an instant.

Be quick about it please. I have a feeling this weirdo is only going to get weirder.

"Do you have a name?" I called over to her.

"Maybe I do, maybe I don't. What is a name to a person I'll kill?" she replied before sprinting forward towards me.

Cocky bastard, isn't she?

She pulled her cloak off as she rushed towards me to reveal what you'd expect Japanese ninjas to wear in films and comics back in the normal world. A black outfit with a few red and orange markings on it. Katanas were tied to her hips and back. A ribbon was tied around her forehead and a bandana around her neck.

She pulled the bandana up over her nose and pulled out one of her blades.

"Shit." I cursed as I jumped out of the way, narrowly avoiding being turned into y/n sushi.

Gaara's PoV

I was talking with Temari and Kankuro when a guard came sprinting towards us.

"Oh thank goodness, you're all together," he exclaimed, breathing heavily.

"Hello... Jiro was it? What's up?" Temari asked, I was equally interested.

"Well about 7 minutes ago we spotted a suspicious figure approaching our post, so we asked for Lord Kazekage to join us but instead Lady y/n came because he'd already left to do something. About 5 minutes ago she confronted the person and got thrown into the wall she sent me to find you three because this girl is mysterious and I'm guessing, extremely dangerous," Jiro briefed us quickly, "please hurry! I don't know what's happening right now, but I don't think it's anything good!"

I looked at my siblings, they were both wearing determined faces that just told me there was no discussion needed.

"Let's go," I ordered, they nodded, and we all disappeared from our spots, hurrying to get to the wall. I left to grab my gourd first and then joined the group on the top of the wall.
