Description Gaara had been sent to Konoha on a good faith mission as it were. Someone had gone missing and he and his brother and sister, Kunkuro and Temari had to go and help some Konoha ninjas. Trivial and dull, but it was Konoha and he was sure that Shigure would be there. When he first arrived there he was briefed by there new Hokage Tsunade-sama and was sent away straight away.
He finished his mission in a couple of hours and went back to the village. They didn't leave straight away they were given time to recover their strength etc. but that didn't matter, but it gave Gaara time to look for her. He walked the streets searching. Occasionally asking old people that wouldn't fear him, or know what he'd done. Eventually someone told him about a girl who fitted her description. Her father had died 3 years ago and her mother had withered shortly after his death. She had a 4-year-old brother but that was all. She hadn't been seen lately so the old man assumed that she'd gone on a mission. The problem was that he was leaving for the hidden sand village in 2 days time. And who knew when she'd be back.

She woke up, her mind wondering around with restlessness. She pulled herself together and sat up. The holes in her back healed well and she felt great. But why was she in Konoha hospital? Did her good-for-nothing useless team-mates bring her back? Whatever had happened she was healed now, that was all that mattered.
She stood up and changed out of her hospital clothes into her black tube shirt, her netted training shirt and her long jeans. She fixed her hair into her usual braid and ate the food that was set beside her bed, and left the depressing room.
She signed herself out of the hospital and started walking around Konoha. She moved along the streets her head facing forwards just simply thinking. Not about anything in particular she just felt like thinking, letting her mind wander. So she did, she opened her mind, even since Gaara had come she opened her mind a lot more. She often opened her mind these days, it started just to sense if Gaara was around, now she just enjoyed the feeling.
She looked out towards the forest that surrounded Konoha and walked towards it. She loved sitting in the tree's just enjoying the peace and quiet.
She felt something. Just briefly a really strong Chakra move by her it didn't feel like Naruto though. She was one of the few that new about the Chakra that Naruto had before anyone else. She could always feel his; it almost blinded her from others. But this was different. She tuned her head, but the street was full and could only see a mixture of brown, blond, black and red hair.
This Chakra though was so powerful. Shed only felt Naruto and Gaara have such Chakra before. She opened her mind a little further to try and see who it was. There were so many people around and so lose together it seemed like just only one big puddle of chakra she looked away and continued towards the forest.
As she walked she closed her mind. All the power around her was unnerving. After 10 minutes she reached the city doors. She walked through the usual path and into the forest.

He was walking down the street trying to find the place the old man had said she lived. Maybe she would be at home and he could see her again before he left. Maybe. ‘Am I crazy? I’ve spent 2hole days looking for her and I have to leave tomorrow!’  He cursed at himself and looked to the ground, he hated looking people in the eyes. There were a lot of people in the road, it must have been a market of some sort most of the people were off to the sides. He sped up his pace, he was going to cut across the girl in front of him and go through an ally instead of this crowd.
He sped up his pace and lifted his eyes from his feet and stepped in front of her. Her head snapped up and turned to the side and looked around. Her searching red eyes ‘Red eyes?’ He turned to look at her again. She was standing in the middle of the street looking around. He was slowly getting pushed away the crowd had just decided to move from the stalls. But she started walking away again.
Kunkuro was right. Her sparkling silver hair shone in the sunlight, like a moon of the day. And her eyes were as bright as the fires of the sun! She was beautiful in so many ways.
After the shortest period of time he was pushed into the ally were he was heading and she was no were to be seen. Without moving his sand sprung from its holding place and followed Gaara's silent instruction.
It fell to the floor a puddle of sand. Gaara stepped onto in and sat on his knees. Without need of commands it lifted to the sky and soared over the crowd.
In the sunlight so many people's hair looked silvery. After just a few seconds he had kids pointing up at him and showing their parents and friends, he sighed and continued faster. ‘She has her hair in a braid. That might help’. He lowered his search to slivery braided hair. He searched everyone he could see he didn't want to miss her again! Her flew around the crowd three times. Slowly widening his range.
He soared off towards the city gates, they were close he could watch from there. So he sped off and landed on top of the city gate. He sat his feet over the edge and searched the faces of those in front and below him. He thought he'd seen her but when he looked again, no one was below him after half an hour he realized she would be gone by now. The pain he held in his chest seemed to grow. She had been so close but he let her slip through his fingers, again. He turned towards the forest and jumped down from his large look out point. His sand came crashing down under his feet before he was even half way down. It carefully placed him on the ground. He looked out along the forests it was so much nicer and cleaner than in the sand village. Just the simplicity and the beauty of the trees always seemed to calm him.

Urgh... It's good, but I doubt you'd want to hear my entire opinion, I'm too critical a reader. :/ I'd give it... like a 7.5/10.

I did like it. My problem was how you organized your sentences. You didn't really use commas to break up the words, so I was zooming through it without grasping anything. Something I really hate to do.

Ever played Claire Tag? Because you've been tagged. :3 Rules: I read your work, you read mine. That's the game, Claire Tag's the name. =] So read mine, god dammit!
