Three people walked through the thick forest silently, well, for the
most part.
"When I find them, I'm gonna beat the shit outta them!" Naruto screamed in anger, pumping his fists into the air.
"Calm down, there's no need to get excited Naruto" Kakashi exclaimed, pushing back a low branch that was in his way.
"No reason?!" he screamed back "No reason! Do you not care that one of your own students was KIDNAPPED?!?"
"Of course I care, but I'm not gonna get angry until they end up hurting her"
"This is so typical" the third person, Sasuke muttered
"What is?" Naruto asked
"That Sakura gets kidnapped, and this is most likely a trap for us anyway, Sakura is nothing but excess baggage that we're forced to carry around"
"You know" Naruto said, more calmly than originally expected "She's gonna save your ass one of these days, and you're gonna be forced to take all that crap you just said about her back"
"Keh, shut up"
The three once again fell into an uncomfortable silence as they ventured further into the forest in search of their missing teammate. Haruno Sakura had been kidnapped by two unknown ninja earlier that day. The reason as to why was yet to be answered. It was most likely a trap to lure Sasuke, Naruto or Kakashi, or perhaps all three of them into an obvious trap.
****
Sakura's eyes fluttered open. She looked around at her surroundings. A plain concrete room with about seven or eight unmarked ninja in it.
"Looky, looky" one chirped "Sleeping Beauty awakens!" They all started laughing at his terrible attempt at humor. She glared angrily at the ninja then looked away, deciding it was better to pick a fight after she was able to move. Her hands were bound with chains behind a pole at the very end of the cold concrete room, so she couldn't do much.
"Who are you?" she demanded, though she didn't really expect a straight answer.
"We're rouge ninja, we belong to no village and you'll not find us in any existing record. I guess you could call us a type of assassins for hire" a very feminine voice suddenly spoke up. The only female of the group stepped out from behind the other ninjas'.
"Leave it to Tohru to put it in pretty words..." a man in the back corner of the room mumbled.
"Why did you kidnap me? Is it to get Sasuke-kun? Or Naruto or Kaka-sensei? Is it?!"
"You mean that Uchiha kid bent on revenge, the moron kid that loved causing trouble and that perverted Jounin, Kakashi of the Sharingan?" a man from another corner of the room chimed in "Nah, our boss only wanted you, my pretty little hime"
"W-what...?"
"God, and I was told that you were smart! I figured that you would've figured it out by now! Us kidnapping you as nothing to do with anyone but you!" yet another man yelled in her direction.
Sakura was beginning to get rather nervous, why did they want her? She wasn't special. Now Sasuke, Naruto and Kakashi were on the other hand, so what would the 'Boss' want with her?
"You think to much girl, has anyone ever told you that? And you're not very patient, when Yumi-sama gets here, all your questions will be answered, so relax, we haven't been ordered to kill you yet" Tohru said, running her fingers through her long brown hair seductively.
Sakura sighed. 'Maybe that's not a bad idea, but letting my guard down in a situation like this would be suicide...'
****
Sasuke trudged through the mud angrily. 'I hate Naruto, God, he's such a loudmouth!' he thought bitterly. Naruto had become exceedingly fed up with Sasuke permanent scowl he seemed to have plastered on, so he decided to take it upon himself to change it. Obviously, hitting him on the head with a large branch was a mistake. Sasuke nearly killed poor Naruto, but luckily, their responsible sensei was there to hold the boy back, but this didn't stop him from being exceedingly pissed off.
"Try that again and I'll rip your spine out!" he yelled
Naruto crossed his arms over his chest and stuck his nose into the air. He then walked over to Kakashi and said in a low voice the following.
"Is it just me, or is he in a worse mood than he normally is?"
To which Kakashi responded in an equally low voice "He's just mad that Sakura's been kidnapped"
"I thought that he thought that Sakura was, quote on quote 'excess baggage'"
"He was acting, and badly, he's really very upset that he couldn't protect her"
"Hmm, how do you know?"
"Did you see the way he looked before we left? He was about to draw blood from his own lip he was biting it so hard" Kakashi snickered.
"There's nothing funny about that! This means that that Bastard likes Sakura too! This isn't good!"
Sasuke rolled his eyes 'Morons, I can hear every word their saying...' he rubbed the bump on his head 'I'm not a bad actor, keh, and I don't like Sakura! So what if I'm upset?! That doesn't mean anything! Wait, why am I getting so upset anyway, if it's a trap for us, they wouldn't hurt her, right?'
****
Sakura yawned; it had been three hours since she had woken up. She looked around the room at the 'rouge ninja' and scoffed. 'They probably all got kicked out of their village or something, heh' she thought bitterly.
"Oi Tohru! Hime over there is tired" one ninja yelled across the room.
"So?" Tohru asked dryly.
"Aren't we s'pose to keep her awake?"
"No, Yumi-sama only told us to bring her here, she can sleep if she wants, I don't give a--"
"I'm right here" Sakura mumbled bitterly "And you" she looked up at the guy who was talking to Tohru "Stop calling me Hime, its not funny"
"I don't take orders from babies" the man growled.
"Yeah, that's because you are one"
"Watch your mouth"
"You were probably banished from your village, that's why you don't have a head protector"
"Damare you little--"
"Or maybe the reason is you never graduated your ninja academy, so you never received one"
"DAMARE!!!" The man charged at Sakura.
Sakura's eyes widened, then she squeezed them shut, waiting for the blow to come, but it never did. She opened her eyes to see Tohru holding the man by the collar of his shirt.
"Stop it Goki, we cant kill her yet, remember? Yumi-sama only ordered a kidnapping, not an assassination"
The man called Goki yanked his shirt away from Tohru.
"I haven't forgotten" Sakura sighed in relief 'so I'm still alive, that's good, lets just hope it stays that way until Sasuke-kun and Naruto find me, if they're looking for me'
"Tohru!" another man came running into the room "She's here!"
****
Kakashi stopped in the middle of the path. Sasuke and Naruto looked behind to see him kneeling on the ground.
"Kaka-sensei?" Naruto asked
"People past through her not long ago, four hours ago at most" he said, studying the ground.
"How do you know?" Sasuke asked.
"Come and look at these tracks, they walked across this path and turned into the forest, here you can tell by the trampled plants and grass of the path" Kakashi said.
The boys walked over to where Kakashi was.
"You think its them?" Sasuke asked.
"I cant think of any other reason someone would go off the trail then to hide" Kakashi said, getting up and walking into the forest. Sasuke followed close behind.
"Oi! Oi, wait for me!" Naruto yelled, running after them both.
****
A girl came into the room in front of two big men. She looked to be about fourteen or fifteen. She had skin so pale it rivaled Orochimaru's, and had stringy, thin, black hair that fell about her chin. Her eyes were like looking into black holes all the way in outer space, they were nothing but empty.
Sakura found herself begin to tremble under the mysterious girls hollow gaze, and the one thing about this girl that unnerved Sakura the most, was the eerie grin that crept onto her face at the site of Sakura squirming under her steel cold gaze.
"W-who are you?" Sakura stammered.
"Yumi, call me Yumi" the haunting girl smiled.
"You're Yumi?! But, but you're only a child, barely older than me!" Sakura exclaimed.
"Yes, my skills surpass my young age, I know, but I didn't kidnap you to talk to you about that" She said and stepped closer to the trembling girl.
Sakura could've sworn that the heat was literally being sucked out of her body with every step Yumi took closer to her. She knelt down next to the shivering thirteen-year-old girl and smirked.
"You are Haruno Sakura, correct?"
Sakura, having misplaced her voice, merely nodded.
"Mmhmm, you are a very special girl Sakura, do you know why?"
Sakura shook her head. The girl's smirk transformed into a grin.
"I thought not"
She ran her hand through Sakura's short, silky, pink hair and brought her forehead to hers.
"I see your future, Haruno Sakura" she whispered.
Sakura's eyes grew.
"M-my--"
"Yes, would you like to see?" and before Sakura could say another word, Yumi had latched her hand onto Sakura's forehead. Light erupted from her fingertips, surrounding the two girls.
****
An agonizing scream filled the forest, sending birds flying off out of the trees and into the sky. Sasuke's head snapped up in the direction of the scream 'Sakura?!'
A/N: well let me know what you thought, whether I should continue this fic or not. I would appreciate no fames, but if my story just sucked that much to you, feel free to tell me so, after all I need to know what I did wrong after all! Anyway, R&R even if it sucked. ^^
