2: Thanks

I stare at the young boy." Hello young boy, I'm silver. Are you ok?" He stares at me a moment before pointing to the counter. Looking to the side I see clothes. I smile walking to them." Thank you, I will be out momentarily." I walk back to the room dropping the blanket getting dressed. Strange clothes they were.

The shirt was a dark green and the pants were a dark blue. Satisfied I leave heading back to the kitchen.

The boy was now washing his plate. "Thank you, young sir. If I may, can I ask for your name please?" He stares at me again before answering." Gaara."

I smile at that. He was so cute and his voice was just adorable." Well gaara its very nice to meet you. Could you please tell me where I am?

"Your at my house in the suna village." He responds drying his plate. Using sand to put it on the top shelf. Wait what? Sand?

"Gaara you can control sand, that's so cool." A small smile crosses his face. I reach out to touch his sand just as he speaks." Wait no-" it was to late. When I touched the sand it fell slack in my hands. A feeling of love overwhelmed me making my heart flutter. A woman flashed through my head. She must be the boys mother. But if I'm receiving this memory she must of passed on. I don't remember judging a woman who had given birth to a child with such bright red hair.

"I'm sorry gaara, I didn't mean to break your sand or have it deflate." I say looking up. He just stares at me a shocked look on his face." How did you touch my sand, let alone get close to Me? Every time a person gets near me, my sand kills them. So how?" I smile he mist not know.

"Gaara your sand holds much more then killing instinct. It's full of love. The people your sand must of attacked must have wanted to harm you in a way. All I can feel at the moment from it is love." He stares at me. I wonder what this kid was thinking about?

I didn't have time to wonder long before a knife suddenly comes flying through the window at gaara. Using my speed I'm quick to grab it before it touches him. I stand in front of gaara releasing my shadows. They shoot throughout the window killing anything sensed. When I don't sense anything anymore I let my shadows disperse." Stay here gaara, I'm going to make sure there's no more threats.

I jump through the window looking around. 5 dead bodies lay on the ground. I didn't see anyone else. Heading back into the house I sigh.

"Why did you protect me? I could easily have defended myself."

I frown that's not right." Gaara your still a child you shouldn't have anybody trying to kill you so young. You shouldn't have to defend yourself at such a young age either. You should be playing and going to school. Not fighting for your life. Why did those men attack you though? Your just a child, what could you have done?"

He looks away." You really don't know. Figures only someone who didn't know about me could stand being in my presence. I harbor the 1 tailed demon in my body. That's why." He says storming off down the hall. I hear the bedroom door from before close.

I couldn't believe it. That boy was a jinchuriki? But that being said they were evil. I did sense a strong hate feeling from him but I also felt love. I couldn't, no I won't kill the boy. I cant, hes just a child. Aww damn screw my life. I knew truth, was going to fuck with me somehow. I cant leave the boy to live like this. Especially after people just tried to kill him.

I know, I'm going to stay here and take care of him. He cant live here alone. I groan, why truth. You messed up bastard.

I get to work repairing the window with some boards I found outside the house. Then I begin cleaning, like sweeping and wiping everything down. Everything had sand on it.

When I'm done I open the refrigerator. All sorts of food were in there. I then look in the pantry.

I pull out some pancake mix. I then begin making some. When I'm done I grab a fork walking to the room. Knocking there's no answer. Opening the door I see he's not in the room, but the window was open. Stepping out I look around seeing tiny feet dangling from the roof. My shadows lift me up and I as well step onto the roof." Hay gaara I made you some pancakes." He says nothing as I take a seat next to him.

I hand him the plate. But he just stated at it." You've had pancakes before right?" He shakes his head yes." Its not poisoned so you dont have to worry."

He slowly picks up the fork and hesitantly takes a bite. After a few seconds he smiles." Its good, thank you."

"Your welcome gaara." We dont speak as he eats ,we just watch as the sun slowly rises.

I stretch out my limbs." Tell me gaara where is your father or the the person taking care of you?" He looks down.

"My family and the villagers hate me. So I live alone." My heart aches knowing such an adorable little boy is hated so much."

I smile ruffling his hair." Well gaara for the time being I'm going to take care of you. There's no need for you to grow up faster then you have to. Enjoy your childhood while it lasts." He smiles before learning over and quickly hugging my arm before letting go.

"Thank you silver." I just smile back shrugging.

Later in the day me and gaara walked into town. I could tell he was uncomfortable because he kept fidgeting around. So I took his hand and we went to a hardware shop. Gaara gave me his money to be able to buy the things. I'll pay him back after I get a job. Walking in I immediatly walk to the wood section. Looking through the different types, I grab the closest to what I think gaaras house is made of. I then grab some nails then we get in line to pay.
