"thoughts"
The night is beautiful. With the midnight blue sky, bright stars, and a full moon on the sky. A beautiful night for romance, but a young beautiful lady is alone in the Kazekage garden. Its about 3am, Mai look at the pond to see what she sees is herself. Nothing has much on her, but she knew that she is not the same as she was when she was 18 years. All of her innocence are gone only to be replace by darkness. She had no man that she could love again even though Hinata keep saying "He loves you, but understand back then he didn't understood. You need to understand his background to know why he said that to you."
Mai shook her head. Hinata was a spiting image of Hinata's mother, but have her Personality when she was at Hinata's age. Mai did everything to make sure that Hinata was happy and didn't felt lonely, but she knew 1 day Hinata will want someone to love and shared it. Mai wanted to protect Hinata from a broken heart that she might get from Gaara, but she knew he won't do it or hope. She look at the pond then closed her eyes to sing her song that reminded her of the old times. (this song is called Everytime We Touch)
I still her your voice, when you sleep next to me
I still fell your touch in my dreams
Forgive me my weakness, but I don't know why
Without you it's hard to survive
'cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling
And everytime we kiss i swear I could fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last
Need you by my sid
'cause everytime we touch, I feel the static
And everytime we kiss, I reach for the sky
Can't you hear my heart beat so...
I can't let you go
Want you in my life
Your arms are my castle,your heart is my sky
They wipe away tears that I cry
The good and the bad times, we've been through them all
You make me rise when I fall
'cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling
And everytime we kiss I swear I could fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last
Need you by my side
'cause everytime we touch, I fel the static
And everytime we kiss,I reach for the sky
Can't you hear my heart beat so...
I can't let you go
Want you in my life
'cause everytime we touch, I get this feeling
and everytime we kiss I sweat I could fly
Can't you feel my heart beat fast, I want this to last
Need you by my side.
"Mai.." A male raspy voice said. She got up with her kunai ready and pointed at his throat ready to slash it open to see the rive of blood coming out of his throat, but was stop when she saw who was the man.
"Shukaku, what you want I'm kinda busy now." She put her kunai away in her sleeves. Then glare at him with so much hate and anger, but inside pass through all the hard walls that she made to protect herself was the same 18 year old girl that had hope and love once before she buried, locked, chained, vaulted, and walled her innocent self closed from the world. The only person that was able to get through all her barriers was Hinata without a try.
Shukaku looked sadly at the women he loved so much that now was filled with hate and anger that he caused when he rejected her over 300 years ago. The guilt was so much that it hurt just to look at her beautiful red eyes, sky blue hair, pale skin as the moon or white sand, and rosy lips. "Mai, I want you to know that I never meant to hurt you when I said back then. I didn't understand the feelings I had. When I finally did you died in my arms when I told that I love you, but it was too late...I'm so sorry Mai please forgive me?" With remorse very clear in his voice. One of Mai's defenses is now uncovered. "I didn't mean to hurt you back then I was stupid to understand what was the feelings I had. For over 300 years all I kept thinking was the look on your face when I told you, how you change from the sweet Mai I once knew to the cold on that I see in front of me now, that you wouldn't let me hold you when we sleep together or make love to you, to see the pain in your eyes when I look at you, or how you would just want to get away from me at any chance you get." With all that said Mai's other defenses were falling down the locks, chains, vaults, and half of the stone wall that she made. "Please forgive me for what I have done to you Mai..." So much sincere and remorse in his voice.
"Should I forgive him, but what if he tries to hurt me again? What if he just doing this so he can just pretend that he cared? I don't want to be hurt again. Once is enough for me I don't want to go through it again." Mai thought not sure if forgiveness would be the best, but looking at him. She can see the pain, guilt, remorse, fear, and rejection in his eyes. For the next few minutes were quite till Mai broke the silences with a soft whisper. "I forgive you...Shukaku."
Shukaku couldn't believe what he heard. Mai, his former or is lover, forgive him! He rushed up to her and hug Mai to a bear hug. While she gave him a soft hug. "Thank you so much Mai you won't regret this I promise."
"I know Shukaku...I know." She pull out a kunai and knocked Shukaku out on the head.
"Ah!" There was a sharp pain on behind his head then everything went black.
"Forgive me love...but this is the only way that I can keep you safe. Please understand Shukaku." She talk to him as he sleep and kiss his lips sweetly for it might be the last time she might do this with him. Mai put Shuaku in her room. Wrote a note to him
Dear Shukaku,
Forgive me for hurting you. Don't think that I'm running away from you or something, but I have to help Hinata with this battle that might take a while for me to get home. When I come back I would like to go back where we left off. I love you Shukaku and remember that I'll always be in your heart no matter what.
Love always
Mai
Then close her eyes to communicate with Hinata in her mind. "It's time for fate to be changed."
"It's time for fate to change."
These words were what woke up Hinata. She look at the sleepy Gaara and smile. He look so much like a cute panda bear, but she knew that she must leave or this will be harder for the village if the Hyuga Army comes in and destroy the village. Careful not to wake him up she got dressed, put a blanket on him, and left a note.
Dear Gaara,
I know that you might be mad, but please understand. I must go and defeat my father in hope of the invasion will stop . Don't follow me for a few days. I don't want anyone other people to get hurt during because of me. It's time for me to leave, but I will return no matter what I will come back. I love you Gaara be safe and don't forget me.
Love,
Hinata Hyuga
She place the letter on the table in front of the couch and give Gaara a kiss to his cheek. She walk to the window open it and jump out. Runs to the South Gates of Suna and meeting Mai.
"Your ready Hinata." She asked.
"Yes lets go we don't have much time if Neji gets there tomorrow we will only have about 2 days before they leave the compound." Hinata reply.
"Yeah I would agree let get a move on it." They run south for the desert knowing where she will be in the next 6 hours. She will reach to the cheery forest where they would rest.
In Suna 9am
Its 9 am in the morning when Gaara woke up alone in the office. He remember he made love to Hinata and was holding her, but now she gone. He felt someone rip his heart when he saw the letter and read it.
"No Hinata...she could die I have to go and help her ...I need to get help and now!!!"
Quickly he put his clothes on and run out of his office yelling different names "Temari, Kankuro, Shukaku, Baki, and Maturi!!!" he was standing in the middle of the Kazekage garden.
"What wrong little Brother?" Kankuro asked.
"She gone isn't she?" Shukaku asked.
"You know?!" Gaara asked shocked.
"I found this letter by Mai. We have to get there fast I'm not sure if they will need help, but its best if we help them now. I can't live without Mai and I know you feel the same with Hinata" Shukaku reply.
"I know where is it. I been there before its the same as going from Konoha, but since were at Suna we will have to go the opposite from here." Tsunade walk up to them. "I'll help you guys to find hinata get ready by 1 hour if not ready well leave with out you."
Everyone went off to get there supplies and weapons for a battle. Some only hoping they will get there before Hinata battle for freedom start.
Hyuga Compound 12 pm
Neji return to the compound and went to Hiashi office.
"Did you find her?" Hiashi asked.
"Yes, we have. It seems like Mai is finally showing herself to us now." Neji reply.
"You mean you fought with her and where is Auron I sent him with you?"
"Yes, he got his arm ripped off and lot too much blood when he was trying to come back here. He slowed me down a lot, but I knew that he might not make it, but I let him die while he try to get home." Neji explain.
"I see, will he wasn't much use anyways. Now we have to get Hinata here and take Mai out of her." Hiashi look through some paper works and jutus. There was even a old forbidden jutus. Explaining how to take the demon out of the host with the demons power and the host power to to make the demon 2 times powerful then it originally it was.
"I'll set the army up for attack the Sand Village." Neji left.
"Now we have our power." Hiashi look at a old picture and his eyes soften. It was his 1st wife Mikomi (it means hope) Hyuga. She look like Hinata in so many ways its kinda scary, but he knew that he never loved her like his brother did. He only wanted her as a trophy wife, while Hizashi wanted her for love. The stupid women married him while his brother married someone else. Yes he felt regret that he left his wife lonely when she made plans for them while he went and slept with other women. "Stop thinking about the past it will only make me weak!!" His eyes were back to hard as steal again. Never again he will think of Mikomi or his brother. Never again
