Description
One day 2 weeks after the girl had arrived, Gaara sat on the swing in the far corner of the courtyard during recess. He sat holding his teddy close to him; it was one of the only things that would be close to him. He saw her under her tree as usual but this time there were a group of 3 girls around her. He figured that she had made friends and looked back towards his teddy.
A loud cry. He spun to look back at her. Two of the girls were taller than her and held her up by the shoulders on her tree, pinning her were her feet couldn't touch the ground. The centre girl had plain black hair and plain grey eyes stood in front of her fist clenched. The girls had taken the new girl around to the other side of the tree so the hole courtyard could see.
Gaara was horrified to see the girl in front, who'd called him a monster so many times, punch the beautiful girl in the mouth again. Gaara now stood in front of his swing fists clenched as her saw the girl spit a large amount of blood on the sand.
The whole courtyard had started towards the tree including Gaara. Usually people would scream and run away from him, but now he was not what they all wanted to see. He was small, as most 6 year olds so he made his way to the front fairly quickly. As he arrived he saw her glistening hair, almost blinding, and those shimmering yellow-orange eyes burnt like fire yet seemed so innocent. Her soft pink lips now darkened red, sprayed with her blood. The plain girl again raised her hand to hit her.
'NO!' Gaara cried. Half the school was either muttering or egging her on so no-one herd the little boy. But Shikaku did. Her fist came crashing down Gaara's heart pounding. He closed his eyes and heard a howling cry of pain. But not the golden haired girl. He snapped his eyes open and saw a wall of sand around the new girl, and the bully had hit it. That was Gaara's wall of sand. The bully broke her wrist and started to cry, her friends dropped the girl and ran to her side. Everyone started to notice Gaara, and stumbled away as fast as their feet could carry them. The girl looked at Gaara venomously and sprinted off towards the school tears flowing from her eyes.
His wall was slowly lowered and he lifted his hand and dropped it again, the sand following his hand. The girl sat on the ground were she'd been dropped watching the sand that had protected her slowly trickle down to the ground. Once it was nothing but ordinary sand again she looked up at Gaara who stood there looking at the pile to. He'd never protected anyone with the wall except for himself.
Shakily she got to her feet, taking in the hair the eyes and the red tattoo on his face. And to Gaara's surprise she smiled and threw her arms around him.
Shikaku, the sand spirit that was placed in side him at birth, had always protected him, from physical pain, and from harmful touch. He actually expected him to send the barrier up around himself to stop the girl but it didn't. Her small warm body wrapped her small arms around his neck and she paced her head on her arms.
For what seemed like an eternity to her he to moved his arms to her back and hugged her back. She smiled to herself, eyes tightly shut. She finally had a friend! After all that time in Konoha people looking down weirdly at her clan. But she never understood why, there were the Hyuuga clan could see through walls, and the Uchiha clan who could copy people’s movements. Her clan could control air and chakra without jutsu what they could control was basically forces, a lot like telekinesis. But the reason Konoha looked at her clan so was because of their power, they did not use it to be ninjas. They would have been great ninjas but few did, she was one of the first to become one. Her family trained to use their power for construction and other tasks, but this was how she had decided to use he abilities.
Had she been more experienced she could have defended herself from the bully, but she was barely starting to learn to use her Kaki-Genkai.
She pulled away from this boy who had saved her, his shiny red hair seemed to be like flames, and his eyes so softly green. How could she have not notice him before! She blushed at noticing shed just spent all that time staring at him she looked away and asked shyly, “What’s your name?”
Such a simple question startled Gaara for a moment he didn't answer, no one had asked his name without calling him a monster. Without an answer she shot her gaze up to his. “Ga-Gaa-Gaar-Gaara...???” he asked as though he asked her his name.
It amused her and she burst out laughing, it was a nice name but she really thought that he asked her his name!
Her smile was warm and not accusing like the ones that were shot at him mischievously by his classmates. He smiled with her almost without knowing. “Well you know mine now what’s yours?” he spoke with a soft kind of voice. She looked at him and spoke as though if she spoke to loudly her would run away. Softly she said in a little more than a whisper. “Shigure, my name is Shigure.”
The bell for the school period started and she grabbed Gaara's hand and started running towards the building like she always did but now with her new friend.
