Internally Broken: A Gaara x OC Fan Fiction

Chapter 1: A New Beginning

Narrator's POV:
It was a warm summer day in Konoha. Ayaka was just a normal girl. She had long, silky black hair that made her bright purple eyes stand out. No, she wasn't a part of the Hyuga clan. She was part of the Hayashi clan. She was playing with her little sister, Ayame out in the courtyard. To Ayaka, her little sister and her parents were the most precious things in the world. She would trade anything to keep them safe. Joining the ninja academy in two years, she trains roughly day in and day out, trying to learn more and more techniques. Her father comes out to the yard to see his two daughters delightfully chasing each other. When they notice him, they run over to him and tackle him into a warm embrace.

Ayaka's POV:
"I'm gonna getcha Ayame!" I yell to my sister. She looks back and me and smiles brightly. I love that little smile. Gah I wanna squish you to death. I look over and see our father looking at us. "Aya!" I hear my sister yell, that's what she calls me, "Let's go attack dad!" I smile and run with her to tackle our dad. When we hug him, he falls to the ground with a big "oof!" Coming out of his mouth. We all laugh together. Our mother comes out to us all on the floor laughing with tears coming out of our eyes. She smiles sweetly, I notice the little wrinkles around her eyes. "Let's go inside now, I've prepared dinner. It's your guys' favorite!" Ayame and I look at each other, "Rice Omelettes!" And bolt to the kitchen. There we sit and eat our dinner in peace.
A little while later, our mother tucks us into bed. She kisses Ayame on the forehead, then kisses me. I blurt out loud, "Mom," she turns around, "What is it sweetie?" She says with a curious look. "Well it's just that I wanted to ask you something... it's about the ma-" she interrupts me, "The mark on your stomach. It's about that right?" I slowly nod. I'm so curious about it it's basically killing me. She sits there, silent. She tells me, "You're not ready to hear that yet. One day you'll be old enough. That day is just not today. Now go to sleep sweetie, you have a long day of training tomorrow. I'll accompany you there." I smile, "Okay. Love you." She closes the door. I try to fall asleep.
Around midnight, I hear sirens, screams, bombs, and explosions. Ayame and I bolt up. Our dad barges into our room putting on his forehead protector. "You girls stay here, your mother and I need to go. Please stay here and be safe. Ayaka, grab your katana and protect Ayame." I hear Ayame quivering, "D-Dad, what's going on?" He looks at me and then at her, "Intruders from the land of waves. If anyone barges in here, Ayaka, you know what to do. No need to be afraid sweetie, We'll be back soon." Holding my katana, my hands shook. I haven't killed a real person before, I've only killed clones. I-I don't think I'm ready for this. But if it's to protect Ayame, I'll kill millions. He hugs both of us and slams the door. Ayame and I stay in a corner of the room, huddled together. She's shaking so much. Her hands are over her mouth. I hug her and shush her. I tell her it's going to be okay.
About an hour later, I hear the door being knocked down. I heard a little yelp come out of Ayame's mouth. I stand up and made her stand behind me. I point my katana at the door, shaking. They barge down the door. One smiles at me, "Well look what we have here. Two little kids. I wonder which one I'll kill first." I hear two people behind the person, laughing.  I speak up, "Kill me. Do whatever you want to me. But whatever you do, don't fucking touch my sister. She lives, no matter what." I hear them laugh more, "Well, well, well, looks like a brave one here. How bout this..." he teleports behind me, grabs my sister by the neck, and teleports in front of me, "How bout, I kill her, and let you go? You seem useful." I firmly grasp my katana, "Not a fucking chance. Let her go." They laugh even more, "Woah there watch your temper there young lady. That's not very nice. Now let's take you instead." I see my sister struggle, "Aya hel-" Before I can react, he grabs a kunai and slits her throat. I stand there, mouth wide open, not able to say anything. I look at the floor with my hands shaking wildly. They walk slowly over to me. No, please don't let this be true. No no no. The person lifts up my chin, "Now let's take you somewhere else." In the moonlight, I realized it's a guy, he's smirking. I really don't like the look of this. They tie me up and force me to walk with them. Great. I've become their prisoner... They force me out the door. I look back to see my little sister, dull-eyed, staring at me. I close my eyes and look forward. We walk through the forest and I look to my right. What I see makes my whole world turn upside down. No. It can't be. I whisper, "Mom, Dad..." they were there, laying against a tree, blood all over their faces. Tears start to well up in my eyes. I look at the people in front of me and ask them, "Excuse me, I have to use the bathroom. May I please go in the bushes?" They look at me disgusted, "Fine, make it quick." I run to the bushes and see a shinobi from the Hyuga clan. I don't know him but he whispers to me, "Little girl, please, take my eye. You need to survive this. For your clan, for my clan, for Konoha. Here." When I look into a nearby puddle, I see that my right eye had turned into a Hyuga eye. He whispers to me, " Hide this from those shinobi, you can escape this. Go now, they're waiting." I nod, "Th-Thank you, sir." He closed his eyes. Looks like he's dead... I run back, closing my right eye. One of the guys looked suspicious, "Why you closing your eye little girl?" I try to make up an excuse, a quick one too, "A branch poke my eye, I'll be fine though." They keep walking. They grab me by the arms and hastily ran. I scream, "Hey! Let me go! Agh! Someone help me! Please!"
I close my eyes and get ready for impact, I hear something else though. I hear sand, and people screaming. I look up and see someone, a boy. A boy with red hair and very dark, eyeliner? No, those are eye bags. Jesus Christ this guy needs some sleep. He looks around my age. He glares at the shinobi and crushes them in his sand. He looks at me and I scoot back a bit and grab my katana. "Who are you?" I say, "Please don't hurt me..." He looks at me, and crosses his arms, "What's your name?" He asks me. "Ayaka. Ayaka Hayashi. A-And you?" He drops his arms, "Gaara. Sabaku no Gaara." Sabaku no Gaara? Gaara of the Sand? What's a sand shinobi doing here? "Leave now. Before more come." He says to me. "Th-Thank you. Gaara." He nods and floats away on his sand. I have nowhere to go now. What do I do now? I walk slowly along a dirt path. What now? I've lost everything. My parents, my home, Ayame. What do I do now? I don't know where to go. Those bastards. I'll kill them. They'll pay for what they've done. I run towards town central. It sounds like the fighting over. I don't hear and more combat... I need to find somewhere to stay. I think I know a guy. A mask wearing guy.
I run to the apartments. Looking for the "H" category. "Hatake. There it is." I go to the door and knock. He opens the door to see me crying and wet. "Ayaka. Why're you here?" I run into his arms and let it all out, "Kakashi, they're gone, they're all gone." He hugs me back, "Tell me everything that happened, come inside Aya, it's cold outside. I sit down on his couch. I've always liked Kakashi. He's like my other father. Like a backup father. Wait... that just sounds not right... He gives me a spare change of clothes, a towel, and sits down next to me. "Now Aya, tell me what happened." I sniffle, "Th-They killed them all. They killed Dad and Mom. They, they burned down the compound. Th-They killed Ayame." I added anger to the last reason. They had no right to kill her. She was innocent. My parents too. Everyone was. They had no fucking right. I look at Kakashi. "Aya, that's horrible. If you'd like, you can stay here. As long as you want." I blush thinking about the question I'm thinking right now. Agh fuck it, might as well say it. I've got nothing else to lose. "K-Kakashi. C-Can you be my dad from now on? Please?" He looks at me, "Will that make you feel better?" I nod, "Well then, alright. I'll be your father Ayaka. From now on. Okay?" He smiles under his mask. I nod and smile brightly, "Okay. Thank you Kakashi." He brings me to my new room and tucks me in, "It's 'Dad' from now on." I smile, "Okay, Dad." He closes my door. I guess this is one way to cope. "We'll be back soon." Well that was a lie.

I guess this is my new beginning.
