Steps (Gaara x Reader)

Chapter 1

A/N (If you guys are wondering, she looks like the above picture here) Hi guys, this story will be following Gaara and them, the story won't be on key with Naruto and such until later on. But I'll be adding my own cute little parts to the story to keep everyone interested etc. Alright hope y'all enjoy!

Growing up it wasn't all lollipops and rainbows, I lived with Orochimaru my entire life. I'm 10 now, but I'm smart for my age. At least Kabuto says I am. Orochimaru has never let me outside these walls, I've only been allowed to fight Kabuto and the others that are trapped downstairs. He never did tell me why they were there but I never asked at the same time. He scares me at times, but the positive out of it all is that I'm finally leaving this dungeon of a place. I'm going on a mission he said he set up in Sunagakure.

"Amaya." Kabuto's voice rang out with a smooth ending. I glance up from the papers that sat on my table.

"Yes Kabuto?" I wasn't as repectful to Kabuto as I was to Orochimaru, Kabuto doesn't scare me in that way.

"Orochimaru said that it's time for you to be heading out for your mission."

"Am I not saying goodbye to him?" I pushed my long gray hair out of my eyes as I continued to stare at Kabuto at my door.

"He has already left, he had to take care of some things." His voice trailed off as he turned towards the door. The door swung open and out he stepped from my room leaving it deathly silent.

"Not even a goodbye, I could die." I muttered under my voice. I was mad because I knew my mission but still had some questions. I was to help the village in the sand destroy the village hidden in the leaves. Orochimaru had given me the Sand's headband and told me to wear it at all costs. I tied the headband around my upper arm and looked in the mirror.

"Okay, I'm ready." I  walked to the door of my room and stepped out, the halls were confusing if you didn't live here as long as I did. I strolled to the front door that lead outside, it was my first time leaving, first time seeing the sun, the sky, the scenery. Orochimaru never let me there even step foot outside because he wanted me secret to this day, this day was the day that his plan is put in place.

                                        ( Time skip brought to you my Ichiraku Ramen ;) ).

I stepped foot onto the Sand village and automatically all eyes were on me. Many stared at the band that was tied around my arm, meanwhile others stared at my gray hair that was flowing all the way down to my middle back. I continued to keep my head high as I proceeded to the Kazekage. 

My eyes trailed the buildings that stood high in the village, many were molded from hard sand that appeared they had been there for decades. Snow storms were zipping through the openings between the buildings which whipped my hair around and filled it with a grainy feeling. I glanced at the people who stood among the buildings eye balling me up and down, they looked like any normal person, some appeared like Sand Shinobi while others were casual citizens. I turned my head forward and continued walking towards the Kazekage's building. 

"Are you Amaya?" the Kazekage asked as I first walked through the door, out of respect I immediately responded.

"Yes, are you the Kazekage?" The man scoffed slightly at that which caused me to jump in my spot. My Amber eyes were solely locked onto the Kazekage as he focused entirely on me, I hadn't even realized there were other people in the room until a louder tone came crashing into my ear.

"Who is she?" I looked over to the man who had said that, my eyes came in contact with a man who had purple paint on his face, dashed in some sort of lines. His outfit appeared like a cat, but his eyes looked like a glare when I caught them.

"Excuse you, you could ask me." My tone came out harsher then I meant for it and I received eyes all on me at that point. "Amaya Hiruma." I sat back on my heels and continued to glare at the Purple painted cat.

"What's yours? It's only fair." I mainly projected that towards the one that had been bothering me but then the girl pipped in causing my eyes to glance at her.

"I'm Temari, that's Kankuro," The girl named Temari pointed to the guy with the face paint who had a smug face on. I nodded my head to the one that was hiding in the back of the room, he was leaning against the wall with his eyes locked on me the entire time. I noticed it after the guy named Kankuro pipped up. The one that was leaning against the wall had these pretty light blue eyes and red hair as shiny as fire.

Her tone turned nervous as she looked away hastily. "That's Gaara."

A/N Alright well I hope that was good <3 if y'all  have any tips on making the characters more on cue let me know and I will adjust to make it perfect. Thanks for reading and I will be posting the next chapter shortly!
