Surprise visit

When Lee came to the great gates of Konoha, he could not see a large body that could hold such an immense amount of chakra. However, when he saw a well-known redhead, he knew that the term "monstrous" wasn't all that wrong for the chakra. There stood the siblings from Sunagakure, among them Gaara, whose Bijuu is the one-tailed.

"Hello Lee." Lee winced when Gaara spoke to him. Somehow he couldn't quite forgive him that he almost had to give up his dreams because of him. On the other hand, he was also grateful to him, because it made him realize that he wanted to become a ninja and that he doesn't care whether he dies or not. As long as he can only be a ninja. Lee almost had to smile. “Hello Gaara, Temari, Kankuro! Long time no see. How are you? ”Temari and Kankuro smiled at him. "We are fine, and you? Fit again? ”Temari really seemed to care whether he was still mad at her brother or not.

While his siblings inquired about the welfare of each of the Konoha kids, Gaara looked back at the forest. He sensed someone was there. But he also knew that this person was up to no evil. But why was she hiding? The strange thing was that you couldn't see her, but you could feel her chakra. Who would hide perfectly optically but not throttle their chakra? It rustled briefly once and then the chakra was completely gone. Gaara turned back to the others.

Lee invited the Sand siblings to the barbecue that was about to start. Tenten had already started to preheat the grill. Temari and Kankuro promised to come, Gaara still left it open whether he would come or not.

With the others, the mood was a bit depressed because Kiba tried to kill Shikamaru with his eyes all the time. Tenten tried to ease the mood with a few jokes, but without much success. Neji smiled but didn't laugh out loud, Hinata looked embarrassed, Ino sunbathed and listened to music, Chouji munched on a few more chips, Shino and Shikamaru showed no emotion and Kiba growled the whole time. Hitomi disappeared entirely.
