[Naruto] [Gaara] Sand and Thorn Bird

Guan was startled awake.

It dreamed that the boy by the pond was devoured by the crane as expected, the big tanuki jumped up and down excitedly, and then slapped it towards the sleeping place——

"!!!"

When he suddenly woke up, he saw the pair of green eyes staring at it, especially bright in the night.

One person and one beast, with big eyes and small eyes.

It's not yet dawn, but the moon is low, and the restlessness of Shouhe has stopped.

The sand wall was scattered, and the red-haired boy stood up slowly with his knees propped up.A strange sound in the woods around him caught his attention, and it seemed to have been going on for a while.I walked over and saw a little snow leopard lying on its back with its eyes closed, as if it was having a nightmare.

He remembered that it seemed to be the psychic beast of Aoki.

I saw this little guy twitching all over his body, his tail slamming on the ground, occasionally waving his small front paws, and from time to time let out a threatening growl or a high-pitched howl——

"Stinky raccoon cat! How dare you hit me?! See if I don't bite you to death!!!"

Little Snow Leopard jumped up and woke up.

So, it was the relatively silent situation at the beginning.

Little Snow Leopard: This guy actually controlled Shuhe? !Impossible impossible impossible...(⊙o⊙)

The twinkling light in the big round eyes seemed to swallow Gaara alive, and he kept staring at him like this without taking his eyes off.Gaara coughed lightly: "Where is Akiki?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden rustling sound beside him, and then, a figure in aqua-blue clothes limped out while leaning on the tree trunk: "Gara? Are you alright?"

Gaara looked at the large and small wounds on her body, as well as the scratches on her clothes, and frowned slightly.

"I was scratched by a branch, and accidentally fell." Akiki waved his hand.

Seeing the worry in his eyes, she explained with a smile: "There is no major wound, it's just that walking will be a little difficult for a while."

When she looked at Gaara, her face seemed to be paler, her lips were even more bloodless, and her forehead was covered with a thin layer of sweat, and the beads of sweat were gathering together and flowing down one by one.

Kashiki: "You..."

That's right, to compete with Shouhe, the spiritual power and chakra must have been overdrawn.

But those deep pool-like dark green eyes were still so clear and warm, with a faint luster flashing across them.The beautiful small pond next to it suddenly paled in comparison.

As if seeing her worry, Gaara opened his mouth softly: "It's okay." His voice had returned to his usual cold and deep voice, only with a hint of exhausted hoarseness.

He's already like this, and he still says he's fine?He really can't comfort people!

I wanted to laugh, but there was a burst of sadness in my heart.

Even if he doesn't know how to get along with others and doesn't know how to comfort others, he sees his worries and tries his best to comfort himself.Even if it's just a simple one, it's okay.

I don't want to think about it.She reached out and grabbed Gaara's wrist.

It's not a normal body temperature at all, it's icy cold, like holding an ice cube.And the palms that touched his skin were all wet with sweat.

With the other hand, he took out the handkerchief he carried with him, stood on tiptoe, and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Gaara was startled slightly at first, then closed her eyes lightly, and quietly let her 'dispose'.

There was silence all around.

Time seemed to stand still.

The noisy night insects and beasts quieted down at some point.

……

Little Snow Leopard: "Did you forget who?" ==

***

"You fell, you fell—really—hardly—terribly!"

Akiki sat down against the tree trunk and took a rest.Gaara sat not far away.

Looking at Aoki's injured leg, Snow Leopard Guan said strangely.

Akigi: "Gara, I heard that Shayin's slaughterhouse is super-professional. With the use of knives, the animals are all dead, and they don't even bark, right?"

Gaara: "..."

Akigi frowned at the snow leopard.It snorted and stopped talking.

"It's almost time to go back." I haven't slept for a long time, I was running around looking for Gaara in the first half of the night, and I kept fighting with those enemies in the second half of the night. I felt a strong sense of fatigue, and Kashiki yawned, leaning on the trunk to stand get up.

I have to go back to meet up with Xiao and the others first, and take a good rest. There are still tasks tomorrow.

'Pa-ta-pat--' Bean-sized raindrops sprinkled from the gaps between the branches above the head, and after a while, it turned into a downpour.

Akiki was slightly startled, then looked up, watching the raindrops staining the dark night, crackling down, his face was cold, with some slight pain.Suddenly he laughed.

It's been a long time since I got caught in the rain.

The last time, it was in Konoha, in that pouring rain, she decided to retrieve the friendship she had forgotten for six years.

But now, that gentle boy has finally returned.

very nice.

The cold feeling disappeared, and a piece of sand to block the rain had been propped up above her head.

But the sand will get wet, so if you want to keep it dry, it will consume a lot of chakra.

Suddenly remembered something, Akiki quickly took out the scroll from the bag, unsealed it, and a small white umbrella appeared.She opened the umbrella and walked to Gaara with a smile on her face.

Tiantian’s ninjutsu is so convenient~

but……

She looked at her injured leg.

There is only one umbrella, and if Gaara walks with her, she will definitely slow him down.But it's raining, and Gaara's sand can't be used.

Just when she was distressed, Gaara squatted down: "Come up."

Akigi: "..." She scratched her head and pointed to the gourd next to her, "What about the gourd?"

After Gaara really picked her up, she realized that she was worrying for nothing.

It's Gaara, it's no problem to manipulate the shape of the sand at will.

I saw that he didn't know when he had removed the water from the sand and gently covered her body.

Akiki supported him on his back, hugged his neck, and held the umbrella with one hand, not daring to move, only feeling a sudden jump in his chest.

There was silence, only the patter of rain and the occasional crunch of feet on the wet ground could be heard.

Guan suddenly jumped onto Akiki's shoulder.

Akiki squinted: "Should you go back?"

Guan Shalai: "No."

Kashiki frowned: "You will only increase Gaara's burden."

Guan rolled his eyes: "Anyway, the biggest burden is you."

Kashiki: "..."

Guan: "Your weight is N times mine! N times!"

Kashiki: "What did you say?!"

Gaara's faint voice came: "Don't move."

Akigi: "..." Well, after all, she is still on someone's back.

Fortunately, I didn't make much trouble after I turned it off, and I seemed to have fallen asleep with my eyes closed.

Akiki lay on Gaara's shoulder, rubbing the hair behind his ear with his face sideways, it was soft and comfortable, and it also had a dry and refreshing smell of sand, which was particularly pleasant.Without blinking, she looked at Gaara's slightly angular side face and white ears, which were dyed a little red by her breath close at hand, and thought it was a little amusing.

After watching for a while, her upper and lower eyelids began to fight.

"Have you fought the enemy?" The calm voice seemed to be even more deserted by the sound of icy rain.

"Hmm...? Nope!"

"Akiki."

"……All right."

"Thank you."

"What are you talking about." Akigi smiled, then slowly suppressed his smile, and asked in a low voice, "Gara, is this kind of thing... still happening? Even... the fourth Kazekage has passed away. "

Gaara was silent, she just stepped on the ground steadily and made a clear sound.

That's right, it's a faction that wants to get rid of Gaara, not just Sidai Kazekage alone.On the night of the full moon, Gaara's condition is unstable, which is an excellent opportunity to strike.No one knows about this except Sha Yin.

Gaara suddenly stopped, sighed slightly, and said softly: "I'm fine." Then he continued to move forward.

Just now, warm liquid dripped into his icy neck that had been soaked by rain.

"... Gaara, actually, I think the biggest difference between those people and us is that they don't distinguish between the past and the future."

Their impression of Gaara always stays on the cruel and bloodthirsty Shura in the past. Their eyes that have been blinded for a long time can't see the changes of Gaara, let alone the changes of Hidden Sand Village.

Akigi: "But if you stay in the past forever, what should you do to face the future? So, they are always so pedantic and stagnant." She almost became like that because of her brother's death.

Gaara, on the other hand, is someone who is willing to bear the heavy burden of the past and move towards the future.

"They have already lost themselves." Gaara said lightly.

"Hmm..." His eyes could not be opened anymore, and the words he spoke became vague babbles, Akiki suddenly stretched his neck, and gently kissed Gaara's reddish ear, "I know, I Aero is stronger than them...it will be fine..."

Then she fell into a deep sleep.

***

And this night, there were two sleepless people.

In a shabby house in an abandoned village.

"It's really troublesome, Mr. Yingyang, who accompanied us on the journey for an extra day." It was Chuan Dao Shahe and Yingyang.

"This is the herb that Elder Yinfeng needs." Chuan Dao Shahe handed over a handful of packed herbs to Ying Yang.

Ying Yang nodded and took the herbs: "Then I'll..."

His pupils shrank suddenly, and he threw away the thing in his hand, and the herbs flew in the air.

Under the icy moonlight, behind the flying green grass, Kawashima Sahe smiled beautifully but ferociously: "It's too late."

Ying Yang's entire palm that was holding the herbal medicine had suddenly turned dark purple, and this purple color was rapidly spreading along his arms to his body.He was so angry that he couldn't speak, he gritted his teeth and stared at Kawashima Shahe: "Why did you do this?!"

The woman smiled quietly.

"Aren't you a sand hidden ninja?!" asked angrily.

Kawashima Shahe shook his head with a smile, his voice was as sweet as a silver bell.She pointed to the sandal mask on her waist, which was casually tied as an ornament: "No, I am the ninja of sandalk."

"Then why did you..."

"You talk too much." Kawashima Shahe snapped his fingers, "Die."

Following her words, Ying Yang fell down straight, and after a muffled sound, he was lifeless.
