...
Sakura blushed furiously, but she didn't move, she stayed in place keeping kuraiya firmly seated.
Kakashi pinched his brows, he turned to the one's behind kuraiya who gave him an unsettling feeling.
He just kept his mouth shut after saying his piece, he had a feeling he'd be slapped by one of them, if he spoke again.
Kuraiya tried to stand, then stayed seated, "don't tell the other's I almost died marci, this'll cause alot of headaches".
She just chuckled before replying, "fufufu, dear they already know, surely you haven't forgotten about your dear hinata with her special ability".
Kuraiya looked up into the sky, already accepting his fate, for when he returns home.
When Sakura heard this, her body trembled, she stared at kuraiya with an hungry gaze, [I'll try and drain you when you come to the sand village, you better prepare, especially if you end up actually dying one day, you should at least let something grow inside me.]
Kuraiya saw her expression, it was the same gaze hinata would show him, when she wants him to stay at home.
He stood up, but Sakura still didn't let go of him, Goku was seen scratching his cheek still.
"Kaka.. kakarot", "uhm, ah, Vegeta!" Goku stood up from the ground surprised, Vegeta looked completely a mess, blood dribbling out of his mouth.
Kuraiya saw it and threw him a senzu, "here, take this".
Vegeta frowned and caught it, "a senzu, these are pretty much no where to be seen anymore, how'd he..", he ignored his own musings and he started chewing on it.
His wounds healed and he stared at kuraiya, kuraiya saw this and he smiled inwardly.
He put down sakura, and started walking towards Vegeta, "kakarot.. kakarot..... Kakarot!!".
Vegeta took a step back, his past memories coming back to him, "KAKAROT!".
"Ahem, kuraiya, isn't that a bit much", Goku whispered from the side and Vegeta heard it, his face instantly changed from embarrassment, shame and to anger.
"Damn you! You actually dare to plot against me!", he clenched his fists, his gaze bearing down on kuraiya.
Kuraiya just smiled, stretched and started yelling, "gaghhhhhhhh!", seeing the familiar scene once more Vegeta wanted to pummel the bastard.
When the light faded, kuraiya was in his legendary saiyan state, "you.. you're going to be the first of my victim's".
Kuraiya's body started shrinking and he appeared in the mastered state, "see, no need to be scared, I was just screwing around".
Vegeta's face turned red, "bastard!, I'll kill you!".
"Woah woah, easy Vegeta, don't take it so seriously", Goku got in between the two, trying to mediate.
'Gurgle'
Everyone turned to face the trio and the trio all blushed, Goku scratched his head again, "hehehehe, sorry about that, guess I'm a little hungry after that skirmish".
Kuraiya nodded, "me too", Vegeta scoffed and turned his head away from the group.
Although he ate a senzu he was indeed hungry as well, the group all went silent when piccolo appeared and through a soldier of the Frieza force to the ground.
"Speak, tell them what you told me", piccolo glared at the runt, causing him to squeak in fear, "yes yes, I'll say it, I'll say it".
"The reason as to how we got to this place was from a wormhole, in the distant part of this universe, it connects to our universe, upon hearing the news, lord Frieza ordered us to pass through it, and conquer this universe, away from the gods and.. and the saiyans".
Everyone gazed at the runt with scrutiny, especially kaguya, kuraiya spoke up soon after, "Frieza said something about wiping out races, why did you guys come here of all places".
He looked to the ground, before looking back up, "about that, we came across something interesting, some ancient texts about gaining power, that's all we know".
Kuraiya sighed, [seriously, Frieza fell for that, it's clearly the tree of life, it'll be useless for him, but this a problem, if Frieza came who says others won't.]
Kuraiya was hoping, some good people will at least come through it and not some psycho like Frieza, who probably wanted to gain more strength to beat beerus for unknown reasons.
Kuraiya gazed at piccolo, it wasn't piccolo who did it, but Vegeta, he raised his hand and blasted the runt soldier to ashes.
"Interesting, if what that man said is true, then that means there's another me out there", Vegeta crossed his arms, before sneering, he remembered what frieza said and he showed an excited expression.
Goku's face twitched seeing Vegeta's decisiveness, "he never changes", he belly grumbled again, so he put his fingers on his forehead and disappeared.
Kuraiya knew he'd appear here soon, so he sat down on the ground, he waved his hand in an beckoning motion towards Sakura.
She quickly trodded over and sat in between his legs, leaned back then looked up, "you don't mind me sitting like this right".
His mouth opened slightly, then he shook his head, "I don't mind", kaguya gritted her teeth seeing her actions.
Kuraiya saw it and beckoned her to come over aswell, she stubbornly snorted, then floated over and kneeled by his side.
Sakura was smiling happily, she finally turned around and snuggled into Kuraiya's chest, kaguya's face turned red.
She was about to repremand the girl, but when she say kuraiya's slight curve on his lips, she held it back.
Goku appeared out of thin air soon after and he dropped three fish onto the ground, "well that's the food sorted", he turned to piccolo and waved, "yo, piccolo mind grilling it up".
"Why do I have to do it!", his green face showed a hint of purple on his cheeks, he gritted his teeth before relenting, "fine I'll do it".
.
Some time later.
.
Kakashi and Naruto, who had just woken up from his heartbreak, felt out of place with this group of foodies.
Kakashi turned his gaze to the dead Gaara, [do they not care about this guy.], he shrugged then pulled out his make out paradise, after all he's used to being the odd one out in group's.
Naruto who was feeling down, he heard kuraiya speaking with Sakura and his heart was bleeding again, [this is too much.]
Kuraiya saw his expression and smiled, [don't worry there's a priestess waiting for you, if you foil that, you're completely screwed.], kuraiya thought to himself, before he started talking to Sakura again.
Kuraiya wanted Naruto to get with that priestess shion and Sasuke to get with Karin, he thought this was a very good match for the two of them, he's already screwed with a lot of women, but he isn't greedy for them all, just the top beauties.
Just a few monkey's with his women, and that's good enough for him, naturally he'll treat them all exceptionally well, and there'll be some in fighting every now and then it's quite a fulfilling life.
He stared at the food in his hands, before chomping down.
After the group finished eating, kuraiya's gaze landed back on Vegeta, Vegeta felt his gaze and he turned to face his gaze directly.
There was an unseen fire in their eyes, they both knew what they wanted, Vegeta scoffed and stood up, he nodded to kuraiya and walked away.
Kuraiya also stood and followed behind him.
.
A few hours later.
.
The two came back with cuts and bruises, over the span of a few hours, they quickly became acquaintance's with one another.
Kuraiya saw that piccolo had already left with Goku, even marcarita and kaguya went back.
Kuraiya scratched his head, before he understood something, [wait.. did kakarot intentionally let Vegeta stay or did he forget about him again.]
He turned to Vegeta, before sighing, "uhm, you can go and find kakarot, for now I'd suggest staying with him".
"Hmph don't tell me what to do", even though he said this, he still flew off into the distance.
Sakura ran over, stared for a moment then frowned, "didn't you already have a big fight, why did you fight with that guy", kuraiya turned to face her, "ah, that, it's in our genes to fight, so i couldn't help myself".
His face didn't change, it really was instinctive, he couldn't help himself and he even doubted if Vegeta himself could hold back his own fighting spirit.
While he was thinking about what to do, kakashi walked over with hesitation, "we should head back".
Kuraiya turned to face him and nodded, "mm".
On the way back, Sakura couldn't help but speak, "you and the other's.. no one will know it was you guy's who saved them, why don't you tell the world about your deeds".
Kakashi and Naruto nodded, kuraiya seeing their gazes spoke.
"I don't wanna be known as a hero, so don't even think about telling others, or I'll throw into orbit! Let alone myself, I'm sure the other's will think the same".
Sakura pouted, "even me", kuraiya smiled widely, "even you, I don't want some weirdo standing outside my door everyday asking for my blood or asking me for autographs, even a random woman asking for me to give them a monkey".
Kuraiya looked up then shouted for the flying nimbus, "well then, let's get going, staying here any longer will...".
He didn't finish, he just stared at the Gaara's body, before continuing, "before this guy starts to decay, it's best to put him inside a scroll for now".
Kakashi nodded and put the guy inside the scroll, "we'll meet you back at the village", he knew with that cloud kuraiya would be day's ahead of them.
Kuraiya nodded, then turned to Sakura, she looked away, still annoyed by his words, kuraiya saw it and teased, "if you're not coming, I'll meet you back there with them".
She threw away her facade and ran towards him, "fine, I'll come".
He cupped her waist and jumped onto the cloud, waved at the two on the ground and flew away.
Naruto kicked the floor and put his hands in his pockets, "damn, am I gonna remain single", he muttered to himself.
But he saw kakashi already running away, "ah, wait!".
.
A week later.
.
Kuraiya and Sakura arrived in just a few hours that day, at the moment, he was still waiting for the two to arrive.
Temari heard the news from kuraiya when he returned, that her brother Gaara had died, upon hearing this she threw a tantrum at kuraiya, he had to calm her down, so he just made her some food while listening to her complaining.
She also saw the way Sakura would sneak into Kuraiya's room multiple times, Temari felt her blood boil when she saw it.
But she could only relent, she thought about teaching him a lesson when they return to konoha instead.
Kakashi and Naruto finally arrived at the sand villages entrance, they were quickly intercepted and brought to the elders.
Upon seeing the dead Gaara, chiyo used her remaining life to bring him back and Temari herself watched it, [damnit, kuraiya if you knew this was gonna happen, why didn't you stop it.]
But when she saw Gaara alive again, she thought maybe it was the best option, especially seeing a different Gaara, he had completely transformed after his rebirth.
