Chapter 9: Something is up
 
Gaara and Yukinko entered the building quietly as they could. They entered the dining room but Gaara could see Temari wasn't in the kitchen. He looked at the clock, it was still early. Temari was probably just waking up.
 
“Wanna see my room?” Gaara asked, not knowing what to say. “Sure.” Gaara led Yukinko to his room. When Gaara opened the door Yukinko looked around silently and went wow. Besides his family no one else had actually been in his room, so he didn't know how to react. “Wah, Gaara. You have lots of toys. You must like teddy bears `cause they're everyone.”
 
Gaara smiled nervously. “Um, yeah. But I like the one you gave me better.” Yukinko blushed lightly. Then, she spotted a picture on a small table. She walked over to it and looked at it.
 
“Who's this?” She asked. “She's really pretty.” Gaara looked a little sad for a moment and answered her. “She was my mother.” Yukinko saw her friend sad didn't know what to say just, “I'm sorry. Are you ok?”
 
“Yeah, just a weird feeling every time I think of her.” Yukinko took Gaara's hand in her own. “I'm not sure what to say or do but I'll help you if you need it.” Gaara let out a gentle smile than.
 
They both just talked a while till they heard the sound of Temari's door closing.
 
=at the clearing=
 
Kayako stayed alert for any signs of attack. A groan was heard. Her remaining teammates were awakening. One of them got up and inspected his surrounding.
 
“Kayako what happened?” he asked.
 
“I'll explain later. The closer village is the Sand. We have to get there and find a medic before the side effects take place. I don't know how much longer I'll hold out so we better get moving.”
 
With that they were of to The Village of The Sand.
=back to Gaara'a place (A/N: is it me or does this sound weird?) =
 
Temari place three cups of hot lemon tea on the table.
 
“So you're Gaara's new friend. He told me you were a girl he never said you were so cute.” She said.
 
“T-t-th-thank you” Yukinko was stuttering again.
 
“Mah, polite as well. So, I've been wondering, how did you become a genin so fast?” Temari was dying to know. As soon as she saw the headband around Yukinko's neck, she couldn't help feel a little jealous. I mean who wouldn't a 4 year old already a genin and you're still in the academy learning to be one.
 
“M-m-me? A-a-a g-ge-genin?!” Yukinko was surprised to say the least.
 
“Yeah, that headband you're…..” Before she could finish, Mera appeared in the room.
 
“Ahh, there you are Yukinko. I've been looking for you everywhere. We have some training to do.”
 
=Somewhere in the dessert=
 
Kayako and her team were still a little far from the village even if they were traveling at top speed. Dawn was here. They needed to get to the village before noon, when the dessert would most probably scorch them. This new terrain and ecosystem was too different from what they were use to. They wouldn't stand a chance in the extreme heat.
 
“Agrh” Kayako groan and fell into the sand. She tried to get up but it hurt like hell. “Damn” her teammates were helping her up now. “The effects have begun. I'll probably pass out before we're there.”
 
Her teammates were worried. “We have to get there quickly than.” One of them said. “We'll get you to a medical center there but we need a change of clothes. I don't think the villagers will take kindly to see cloud ANBU members.”
 
And they were off, carrying Kayako till they reached the village gates.
