The Old Life, Chapter two
It's been five years since my clan was killed by my demons. Since then I have been taken cared of by an assassin in her early thirty's, who loved all creatures but would not let that get in the way of her work. As I grew I found a lost and starving baby black leoparde out of no where. Moriko did not accept the half dead creature a first. However she cared for me and let me keep it to satisfy my company.He was first scared of us but them whimpered once he smelled the food that Lendala carried on in her backpack. And with time he grew to be strong and very cute, giving him the name Kou. My birth day was coming soon and being with Moriko I have gotten nothing unlike other kids so I expected nothing.
She knew my name from the bracelet that was on me but didn't have a clue on when I was born, so she made up my birth on the day that she found me and when she told me that I was not her mother I was not shocked by it because she did not act like one. Her home was every where but for now we stayed in one of Sunagakures hotels, since she was given orders to spy on the Fourth Kazekage.
I was sleeping now, with Sadow at my side in his own little dream. "Saga wake up." I groaned not wanting to wake up since it was the weekends, so I turned onto my side. "Saga I said get up," her was low and deep as she pulled the covers off me. Sitting up slowly my long black hair was messy. Slowly getting out of the bed I let Sadow sleep until necessary. "What's wrong?" "I'm going into the town for food and I don't want you cooped up in here when I'm out." I was so excited for I've never been in this village and wanted to know what the area was like. I got dress in my purple t-shirt with the slevees ripped off and dark blue shorts. Before leaving Moriko told me to bring Kou with me since he's always by my side. Placing Kou in my backpack we went out the hotel doors and into the town.
Once we knew where everything was Moriko sent me to the playground so she could get to her work. While there, I played soccer with a bunch of kids until they had to go home to thier parents. Still wanting to play I looked around to see if there was anyone else out and there was. A red headed boy was sitting on the swings by himself holding a brown teddy bear. Smiling I walked over to him as he started to tense, squeezing the rope that held the swing up in the air. "Hi I'm Saga, may I swing with you." The boy lifted his head looking at me, seeing the smile on my face, "Sure." I nodded, taking my seat on the swing next to him and placed the backpack down still containing Kou.
"So what is your name?" "Ga..Gaara...Gaara of The Sand" I thought at the name not trying to remember it just thinking. "It's a nice name, if you only say Gaara that is." Then silence washed over for a minute or so. "Aren't you afaird?" "Hm?" "Aren't you afaird of me." "Why would I?" "Becase of what I am and what I have done" "But I do not know what you have done or what you say that you are. So do you like yourself?" "I guess." "If you only guess that you like who and what you are then you care and don't care what ppl think of you," I stopped to think over what I just said, "Did that make sense?" Gaara shurged not sure either. Gaara went to say something but got interupted by Moriko.
"Saga, time to go!" Mine and Gaara's heads looked at the enterence of the playground to see her. "Sorry but I have to go....take this." "What is it" Gaara said while holding a clay shaped black leoparde head. "It's a key chain, I was going to give it to Moriko but I can make another one. So I'm giving this one to you becasue your my friend now." "But?" I shook my head and gave him a hug. Picking up my backpack, Kou had jumped out and follwed me as I ran over to Lendala without noticing the blush on Gaara's face. Moriko looked down at me and handed me a bag of food that she bought. Doing so she noticed the red headed boy, narrowing her eyes at him, "Who's that boy?" "His name is Gaara. Why do you ask?""I want you to stay away from him. He could get in the way." After that me and Gaara became close friends even though Moriko didn't want us to.
