Chapter 5: Training
Gaara picked up the kunai and threw it at the target again. It was at least 50 feet
from him. It hit the outer ring of the target. He had been practicing since Mera taught him
how to use a kunai. He was getting a little better. He could hit the board at least.
"That's good boy. Now just keep trying to hit the center of the board." Mera
instructed him.
"Hai." Gaara took out another kunai and began aiming.
*3 days ago*
Gaara was sitting in the living room watching Mera talk to Temari.
"Are you sure my father said that?!" Temari asked unbelievingly.
"Yes. Kazekage-sama has allowed me to train him along with Yukinko." Mera
stated.
"But isn't he a little young." Temari gritted. "What if something goes wrong
while you are training him! Or somebody gets hurt!" 'What if Shukaku shows!'
"I assure you everything will be fine. He will be training among his own kind."
"My brother is not a demon." 'The demon is just within him.'
"That is not what I meant. The girl he will be training with also has a demon in
her. I need to see if both of them can fight together and if their demons are compatible to
fight as a team." 'Two demons to gain.'
"Fine. I have nothing to say against Father's orders." With that Temari literally
pushed Mera out the door. "He'll join you tomorrow."
Temari approached Gaara. Gaara just stared. "Um, Gaara, tomorrow you will
begin training to be a ninja." She said as calm as she could.
"I know. I was there." Gaara said. "Does Sister not want me to become a ninja?"
"Gaara, I'm just worried that's all. Don't you think you are a little young?"
"I'll be fine. Than I can also play with Yukinko." Gaara smiled shyly.
"She is the one who gave you your new bear, right?"
"Umm."
*End*
Three attempts later, Gaara turn to Yukinko. She was throwing just fine. Her
shurikens (is that how you spell it??) and kunais were hitting the center of the target or
the ring closest to it. He stared at the black choker around her neck. 'It looks like a
collar.' He thought. Yukinko feeling Gaara's eyes on her turn to him.
"Ga-kun is something wrong?" she asked.
"Huh? Oh umm…. no not really just having a little trouble hitting the target that's
all." he replied stupidly.
"Throw it." She instructed.
"What?"
"Throw the kunai you're holding at the target."
"Huh? Oh." Gaara carefully took aim and threw the kunai. It whizzed through the
air and hit the outer ring again. "Umm… ya. That's the best I've done so far."
"Your throws keep going to the right. Try aiming a little left. That might help,
ne?" she suggested.
"Okay. I'll try." Gaara took aim a little left this time. He let kunai slipped through
his hands. It hit the ring just out the center. His eyes lit. "Thank you, Yukinko." Yukinko
just smiled. Mera than came and stood behind her.
"Girl, we're going to begin some chakura exercises soon. Boy, that's a very good
shot. Keep practicing till you can hit like Yukinko. Okay?" she said.
"Umm. Okay." Than Yukinko and Mera walked a little further away putting in
some distance between them.
"Girl." "Huh?" Mera put her hand on Yukinko's head and Yukinko's eyes
widened and her mouth hung open slightly. She was in pain. Very shocking pain. "Good.
You're getting stronger." Mera said letting go stopping the pain. Yukinko fell to the floor
breathing heavily. "That chakura shock was to practice your endurance. Your endurance
must be quite high for you not to scream. That's good."
Yukinko just stayed on the ground breathing heavily. "Get up." Yukinko slowly
struggled and finally stood up. "Let's begin."
=Yukinko's room, later that night=
Tossing, turning and sounds of struggling filled the room.
"No." Yukinko reached out. "Stop." She kept saying.
Snow everywhere. She was always comfortable with snow but not this time.
There were blood and dead bodies everywhere. There was a deep gash above her heart.
She couldn't breathe. She was dying. Slowly darkness came. Last thing she saw were a
pair of ice blue eyes.
Yukinko shot out of her bed. She was scared. She didn't know why. 'Nightmare?'
She couldn't remember what scared her. She looked around. She was in her room. Her
bag was at the edge of the bed.
'Ka-san.'
<Hmm?>
'Did something happen?'
<No.> was the only reply she got and that was it. Yukinko slowly relaxed and
began to drift of to sleep again, unaware of the dangerous entity taking over her body.
=roof=
Gaara practice was throwing. His accuracy was a little off but he needed to catch
up with Yukinko. He watched the sky after a while. Yukinko couldn't play with him
because she was asleep. She actually passed out during training. Mera told him it was
because she used too much chakura.
He looked down at the village it was quiet and peaceful. Suddenly there was an
ear-piercing scream. He quickly looked for the source of the sound. Nothing. Everything
seemed to have stilled. He was about to stop searching when he saw a quick bluish streak
jump from roof to roof and disappeared. Everything seem to have return to normal after
that. So, Gaara just let it be.
=Marketplace, next morning=
The town was a buzz.
"Did you hear the scream last night?" a housewife asked her friend.
"Yes, what was it?"
"I heard they found a man in an alley this morning."
"Seriously?"
"He was found without blood and his organs scattered everywhere."
