"Fly with me, Akuma." "I can't." "Why's that?" "Devils don't fly." Akuma is a demon spawn, which is why her name means devil. With her being hated by the Sand Village, she natural befriends Gaara and they soon become inseparable. They're both demons, both of them have bloodlust, yet they calm each other. And all at the cost of what? Love. Bits of SasuNaru included, hehe.
