Toshiro's POV 

Lee ran at Gaara and did leaf hurricane which was absorbed by the Sand pouring from his gourd, course Lee pulled back just in time before the blow hit him

Gaara didn't move an inch as the sand returned to its proper place.

"Is that?" Ino asked

"Sand?" Sakura finished

I rolled my eyes now standing next to Sakura

"No, its mud" I muttered sarcastically

she turned to me

"Hmm......we can't all be as smart as you Toshiro" Sakura muttered back

I smriked

"You think I'm smart?" I muttered

"Well you're definitally not as much of an Idiot as Naruto" Sakura stated

"He's a freakin Sand ninja, of course he'd use sand.....just like the Sound ninja's use sound attacks.....its in the name I'd think it'd be quite obvious" I stated

She glared

I smirked

Hey I said we could tollorate each other I never said we became best friends, I still think she's annoying and she probably thinks I'm insane....which I am. Its a mutual understanding I suppose.....

Lee went at Gaara again but same as before Gaara never moved an inch from his position as the sand deflected every attack without any effort multiple times in a row

He's strong.....Gaara's gotta be one of the strongest people I know

Obviously he's not gonna get a hit on the guy any time soon.....I'm starting to wonder about his chances of winning, even though I like the guy and he's a strong fighter its as Kankuro said before.....he can't beat him and I don't think he ever will.

But that doesn't mean I can't hope he'll win or else I'd be like Neji and his Conceded Jack-Ass-ness will rub off on me

I mentally shudder at the thought

Lee pulled out a Kunai and began to cut at the sand

In my mind I find that rather useless and a waste of energy.......lets put it this way, cutting at sand is like cutting at water.....it'll go through the substance but won't make any actual damage so it kinda takes up extra movement you may not always be able to afford

Lee continued his seemingly vain efforts to attack Gaara directly with his kicks and punches.......then the sand started to go after him as if it was alive

I shuddered

*Glad I don't have to fight him* I stated

Lee jumped into the air and threw Shurdiken at him only for it to be deflected per the now usual

"Lee's attacks have no effect" Sakura sated

"Gaara........He's seriously strong" I whispered

Sakura glanced at me worridly

I took a breath

"What's the deal?" Naruto stated

"No physical strike will have any affect on him, the sand sheilds and protects him of its own accord" Kankuro stated

My eyes widened and I gawked at him in a "seriously?" manor

He seemed to pickup on it and nodded

"Yeah seriously, but don't ask any of us how or why that started happening......all we know is that because of it he remains undefeated" kankuro stated
