Ok people, this is my first story and I hope ya'll like it hehe.

Disclaimer - I don't own Naruto. If I did I would be filthy stinking rich and would be living in Japan living the easy life...the only characters I own are ones of my own make. Like Kitari

Well, here's the first chapter. Enjoy!


It was night, lightning was brightening the sky, and thunder was heard in the distance. In a deep forest, a girl was swiftly running through the trees. She moved her head from side to side quickly as if she was searching for something or someone. Her bright blue eyes reflecting light that was coming from the stormy sky.

As she was jumping from tree to tree, she was calling some ones name. "Gaara-kun where are you!" she yelled frantically. She soon jumped accidentally to a smaller branch of a weak tree that quickly gave way from her weight causing her to fall to the ground. She grunted in pain as she fell on her stomach. She quickly got to her feet and continued to run on foot.

She soon came to a clearing in the forest. She stopped to catch her breath as she leaned on a tree. She raised her head and gasped. There was a boy sitting right in the middle of the clearing.

This boy had red, spiky, short hair and bluish green eyes; he was wearing a dark red t-shirt with reddish brown pants and black sandals on his feet. He wore white robes also around his body. On his back was a large tan-ish gourd with a red sash wrapped around its middle, a cork was stuffed on the top of it sealing whatever was inside of it. He also had a red tattoo on his forehead over his left eye; it translated from Japanese, the word 'love'.

The boy had in his right hand a kunai knife. He seemed to look really sad about something. He soon looked up towards the girl and sighed heavily as he spotted the girl, a look of pure sadness and emptiness in his beautiful turquoise eyes. The girl looked horrified at this scene before her.

Then, before she could even blink, the boy quickly brought the kunai blade right over his left wrist, blood spurting from the wound onto the ground and onto the boys' clothes. The boy fell back onto the ground on his back, his gourd falling off of his back and rolling a few inches away from him. She yelled out and ran into the clearing and ran to over to the boys side. She picked the boys upper torso up and held him in her arms crying into his shoulder as his blood started to spurt onto her clothes and skin as well.

The girls eyes started watering up even more, tears being released from her brilliant blue eyes, and fell down her cheeks and onto the boys body. His face was deathly pale from the total blood loss so far. "Please don't die on me Gaara-kun! Y-You promised me that you would be with me forever! I-It can't end like this!" She yelled in despair. She continued to sob into the boys' shoulder, her body shaking from her sobs.

Everything soon got completely quiet, the thunder had disappeared. Even the sounds of animals in the forest had disappeared. As she opened her eyes, she found out that the boy had disappeared from her arms. She looked around the area, frightened now. She yelled out as she felt herself sinking into the ground. She looked down and found out that she was sitting in quicksand, and she was sinking, fast! She desperately grabbed onto the grass to hold onto it and to try to pull herself out but it was too late. She yelled out as the sand completely covered her head leaving her in complete darkness, suffocating her.

Just then, deep in the sand village, a girl named Kitari awoke with a frightening start from her current nightmare, a cold sweat sticking running down her body making her pajama pants and her tank top stick to her. Her eyes were wide open as she quickly looked around her room, to find out that what she had just saw was nothing but a bad nightmare.
