Taisha walked along the desert, telling herself, and being sure to tell Dar, that they were not lost. Every time Dar gave a grumble about being hungry, she would pat his head saying, "We will be there any minute! Stop complaining!" They were headed for a small village not far outside the boarders of the sand village. Dar was Taisha's pet cougar, though really she may be his pet....
They had been walking for about three hours, and Dar did not do well while hungry. Taisha was not about to confess that she had made a wrong turn. She was just not that type of person. She jumped as she remembered a small sandwich she had packed before leaving. She eagerly pulled a pack out of her kunai holster. It did not look very yummy after the long walk and being scooshed in her holster, not to mention today had been extra hot. She was even unsure if it would be safe to eat, but at the moment she was hungry and so was Dar, so she would have to take the chance. She took it out of the bag, which, up close, it looked even more gross. She tore it in half and it smelled bad also. She held one half out to Dar who sniffed it the shook his large head. He looked up at her as if she had lost her human mind.
"What?" She exclaimed. "Its either this or nothing." She said stubbornly. He shook his head again, but ate it, though did not enjoy it at the least. She ate her half too, but she made a worse face than Dar had. Then they looked ahead, they had to keep going. And Taisha was not about to turn around and confess defeat. She was just not that type of person....So they continued on their way.

Shiro stumbled as he gribbed the wound across his gut. Blood dripped out, hitting the sand and becoming a mud like maroon spot. He was sweating, bleeding and only halfway conscious in the middle of the desert. He was carrying his heavy pack as he fell onto his knees.
Whats the point? he thought. If I made it through this I will just end up alone in my house again...I should just give up. No one will even miss me anyway. He hit the warm sand as he passed out, waiting for death.

Taisha was walking again. Tired and sweating, but now, unlike before, she was leaning on Dar hoping for at least a little support to help her walk. She has breathing was becoming more labored and stung her throat. Okay, maybe I am lost.... She thought looking at Dar. Sweat, Sweat Dar...He had helped her though so much. She blinked hard as she saw a lump of some sort in the distance. Human? Her curiousness got the best of her. She tried to straiten up and she found that she could walk a little easier than before. As she got closer she realized she was right; human. She came closer to figure out that he was male. "Of course..." She mumbled. Male. They were useless, so no wonder he was half dead. She bent low, keeping her hand on Dar's side. She slowly brought her other hand to his neck. "He is still breathing...." She said to Dar, though she was loosing her voice from the lot of sand that had gotten to her lungs. She tried her best to pick him up enough to lift him Dar's back. Dar made no complaints to this just kept on going, though at a slow pace so that Taisha could keep a hand on his side. He couldn't have her falling and hurting herself. So they continued there way to the village that She was unsure was in the direction that they were going.

Shiro was dreaming. He had dreamed this dream a million times, he was sitting in the floor playing with his sister. Back whens she was alive...
Maybe this was heaven. Maybe it wasn't a dream...
He let himself be happy for a while. He wasnt aware of the weak smile clinging to his chapped lips on his body.

Taisha had been looking back and forth from the boy to the way they were going. As she glanced again she noticed a small smile on his face. "Why am I doing this Dar? He is just a boy....But strong I must admit....He is hanging on well." She said in her weak tone of voice. It hurt to talk, but for some reason she couldn't stop. Like if she stoppd he would die...Why did she feel this way? She opened her eyes wide and looked strait ahead. A town! Was going to be her scream, but she couldn't force herself to be that loud. But there it was, a town. And not just a town, the town, the one she had been after. She smiled, and her lips split, though she paid this no attention. She had made it. "Come on Dar!" She said in a happy whisper. She held on to him, still for support, but her steps quickened. She was happy to be there.
As they entered the town she got various stares, but paid them no heed. Her thoughts were now completely on getting a nice place to take this boy. She saw it. The healer of this town. So she took him there. The lady answered the door with a kind smile, and took them both in with a hurry. She was going to take care of them both.

Shiro continued his happy dream and it seemed to last for hours...
untill the room grew dark.
He flet his mind perplex at this, if he was in paradise...why was he scared?
He looked over at his precious sister who's face twisted in anger.
"Why wouldn't you leave me alone? You made my body into that sick weapon of yours...I hate you."
Then, she began to disasemble herself. Shiro was running down hallways trying to avoid darts and chains and poison...

The lady had bandaged them up and had given them water. She laid the boy''s food and water down on the dresser. Taisha's throat felt much better, and she was content. She looked over at the boy on the bed. He was dreaming, she could tell. She walked over to him, patting him slightly. "Wake up. You need water." She said camly, but there was a sterness to her voice. Dar sat on Taisha's bed.

Shiro was running and running, untill he felt himself getting pulled out of his nightmare, he sat straight up and wasn't aware he was screaming untill he felt his throat hurt. He was wet with sweat and wide eyed.
He was panting like he had just ran a hundre miles. He took a deep breath and asked in his monotone voice.
"Where am I?"

Taisha fell back on the floor as he sat up screaming. "Geez!" She yelled. "You okay?" She scrambled up to her feet. And sat down on the bed. "A small town that I was on my way to. I found you half dead, I think. So me and Dar brought you here with us." She said grinning a small grin.

Shiro was still breathing heavily, when he realized his bag wasn't on his back.
"Where is my bag?" he asked. He wasnt the kind to say thank you.
He was worred, if he lost his sister than he would never forgive himself. He felt lightheaded and sick. He went to stand and colapsed back onto the bed.

Taisha stared at him. "Unless it was on your back, it is back in the desert..." She said worried. She stood up and walked to Dar. "You shouldn't try to stand....You are still really drained." She said patting Dar, who was now laying down purring loudly. She looked at him. "But really I am not sure, I was tired back there I didn't pay any attention." She said, her voice was still a little weak, but it was feeling better all the while. Dar seemed to be happy that he was out of all that sand too. She grabbed the tray that belonged to Shiro. She walked back over to him and laid it on his belly. "There, you should eat that." She said smiling.

Shiro smacked her hand away. He couldn't believe this, where was his sisters body?
Not to mention the secret scroll he was transporting to Suna from Konoha.
He felt his eyes roll back in his head.
"My..." He tried to stand again "Sister was in that bag..." He said before colapsing in the floor, barely consious.

Taisha backed away, her eyes wide. "Your....s-sister?" She mumbled. She abruptly let out a high pitched scream. "Your sister?!" She screamed to herself. She then bent down by his side and started shaking him hard. "WAKE UP!!" She screamed, still shaking him. "We have to fin her!! Why did you have your sister in a bag? Thats stupid!!" She yelled. She then threw him down running around the room. She ducked her head under the bed. "Sister? Bag?" She was saying looking ever where she could think of. "No where!"
