"what... how?"

Every one stared at the supposed dead girl in disbelieve.

Yoru smirked.

" You do know my nickname right? The demon of the night? I did not just get that name because I'm more active in the night. I do have something to do with death."

The newly resurrected girl stepped out of her death bed and stretched.

"Plus old man Death did not want me down there. To much of an annoyance apparently."

"You...You freak!"

Yoshino yelled as he ran towards the girl and swooped her up into a hug.

"You idiot! Do you realize how scared I was?! How scared we all were! You damn idiot!" Yoshino exclaimed as he buried his head into the crook of her neck.

Tears flowed out of the boys eyes unwillingly, drenching the girls shirt. Huging the sobbing boy back Yoru felt a clench on her heart.

"I'm sorry for worrying you all. I did not want that to happen."

She looked at the rest of the crowd with glassy eyes, trying her best to not let those damn tears flow out.

"Scaring you all was not my intention. I had only wanted to protect my friends from being injured. Even if it cost me my own life. There is nothing more important to me than protecting my friends and my village. My own wellbeing comes second to all of you."

The crowd of villagers looked at the brown haired girl in awe. Never would they have thought that the girl who had always been bullied and tortured for being 'different' would say such things as she did now. They all looked to the ground ashamed of how they treated the girl. What would have happened if she would have actually died? The other boys that keep the village under order would go into a deep depression that only death could cure. That girl that they thought themselves above and feared was the one who would always protect the village no matter what. Even if it ment she had to take out an army all on her own.

One by one the villagers began to bow. The sand siblings, and the ninjas of the shadows stared at the crowd in curiosity.

"We are so very sorry!"

The girl stared at the villagers in surprise.

"No please stand up. You have nothing to be sorry about, the reason you all treated me the way you did was because you were scared. I made sure you feared me to the extent where I would threaten you family. I should have not done such a thing to all of you. And for that," she deeply bowed, " I am the one is very sorry."

Now it was the villagers turn to stare in surprise. But they all began to smile.

After all the thanks and sorrys. Yoru found herself standing in front of a certain red head.

Meeting his seafoam eyes she couldn't help but to get lost in them.

'so beautiful'

"um..Yoru."

Breaking out of her trance by the deep voice, she looked down in embarrassment.

"I. I'm sorry Kazekage-sama"

Yoru quickly bowed trying to hide her quickly reddening face.

"Yoru please stand up yo don't need to appologize, and please call me Gaara."

Slowly looking up at the red headed teen she noticed how his expression softened at her. How his eyes held nothing but admiration. Or was that just her imagination?
