"WAKE UP!" The booming voice echoed.

I woke up petrified. I rose up quickly lashing my head side to side. "Where am…" I took a moment to look around at my surroundings almost forgetting where I was... It was cold and dark. I was laying on the ground in a cell. The only light in this area was dim and useless. It smelled of mold and mildew. I looked down to see the shackles around my wrist.

The harsh memories of being brought to this place came flooding back. My body was in so much pain from being thrown around like a ragdoll like I didn't mean anything to anyone. I didn't want to be here, but I didn't have much of a choice. It was my only choice…

The man standing in front of the cell jangled a pair keys. It was too dark to see his face, but I could see the silhouette of his body from the dull light. The jingling stopped and he went to open the cell door.

"Today's your big day, huh? Finally going on auction to pay off your father debts. Congratulations." He walked over to me grabbing a lock of my hair. He started tugging at my hair roughly. "Stand up!" He shouted loudly. He started pulling on my hair more. I groaned a little before forcing myself on my feet. He released the locket of my hair and it draped back over my shoulder.

He grabbed the chain connected to the shackles around my wrist and proceeded to pulling it. He was leading me in a direction towards a grudgy looking door. The smell of mold and mildew slowly faded the closer we got to the door.

He opened up the door and started leading me up a staircase. There was the sound of a crowd chanting. My body started to tense up with every step. This was really happening, but there wasn't anything I could do about it. I don't want this. "Someone help me! Someone help me!" I kept screaming to myself over and over again.

We got to the top of the staircase and the bright light at the end of it nearly blinded me. There was a group of men standing there. It was like they were waiting for us to arrive. The man pulling the chain jerked me ahead of him and pushed me to the group of men.

"Here she is. Get her ready for the auction." One of the men grabbed me and threw me in a cage. I fell to my knees. I kept my head lowered.

"Such a cute girl. Sad I wasn't able to use her for myself." All the men surrounding him would chuckle while adding their comments and remarks.

They started pushing the cage. I didn't see where they were taking me, but the chanting of the crowd gotten louder and louder. It was almost painful to listen too.

The cage stopped moving and the chanting could be heard clearly now. People were yelling out prices and names all at once. It was too hard to keep track of everything that was being wailed out.

"And now what you've been waiting for!" A loud booming voice announced. "Our main event! The selling of this fine piece right here!" I could hear the cage opening up. Someone grabbed me by the back of my shirt and yanked me up. When they yanked me up, I lifted my head. When I lifted my head there was a crowd of people. The entire crowd was filled with men. They were all dressed in suits.

The crowd of men were staring at me in amazement. My body was shivering. I was going to be sold to one of these men. The room smelled of different types of colognes. It was almost sickening.

"The bidding price will start at one hundred thousand!" The announced shouted.

After he announced the price, the crowd of men started to go wild. Random men in the crowd started blurting out prices one after another.

"One hundred fifty thousand."

"Two hundred thousand."

"Two hundred fifty thousand."

"Three hundred thousand."

The crowd almost went silent. After "three hundred thousand" was blurted out.

"Three hundred thousand, going once, going twice!"

"Five hundred thousand." The crowd gasps hearing such a high amount of money. My eyes widened. Five hundred thousand was more than enough to pay off my father's debt. The man who called out the price had his hand up. He was standing next to a blonde haired male in the corner.

"Five hundred thousand, going once, going twice, SOLD to the one and only ."

I started to get pulled towards another door. The chanting wasn't as loud now. I didn't know where I was going now, but I just assumed they were getting ready to trade me over to this ' ' person. I was saddened and relieved at the same time. Hopefully everything was going to be alright now, but I didn't want to live this lifestyle. I never wanted anything like this to happen.

Once I was through the door, the man pulling me removed the shackles from my wrists. I held my wrist up slightly to see the indent the shackles made. My skin was a red rosy color. I should feel happy, but I knew I wasn't free from the future that was chose for me.

"You've been sold. Put on a pretty face for your new master." He tossed the shackles off to the side. He showed no interest in where they landed.

"My new master." I repeated back to myself.

The male and I stood there for a moment before footsteps could be heard. Two man came walking up. I recognized the blonde hair from the male in the crowd. Standing next to him was the male with the dark hair who had his hand up. It was clear he was the one who purchased me. He was holding a briefcase in his hand. He didn't show much emotion on his face. I didn't dare to make eye contact with him, but I peered over to the blonde haired male.

We made eye contact and I felt myself panicking. I was somewhat scared. His eyes were beautiful blue color. He didn't give me a smug look. The look in his eyes was different from what I've experienced in the last few days. His facial expression was filled with sorrow. It was almost like he was saying he felt bad for me without any words.

"The money is all here." He walked over to a table opening up the case. The case was full of money. The man who was standing with me walked over and started taking the money out bit by bit. I was guessing he was counting the money by eye.

"It was nice doing business with ya." The man stuffed the money back in the case and closed it. "She's all yours."

The dark haired male walked back to me. The expression on his face didn't change. He went in his pocket and pulled out a collar. He placed the collar around my neck.

"You belong to me now and me only. Do you understand?"

"I understand." I nodded my head in agreeance.

"Naruto." He looked over to the blonde haired male and walked away.

"Naruto…" I mumbled.

"Hello there." He smiled at me. It caught me off guard. I guess he heard me say his name? "Please follow me."

"Yes Sir." I followed him in the direction he was leading me.

Things were a tab bit awkward while we were walking to the location he was leading me to.

"What are you doing in a place like this?" He disrupted the silence. "I've never seen such a beautiful girl like yourself in a place like this."

I didn't answer him, but I continued to follow. I couldn't find the right words to answer his question without bringing myself more pain and sorrow.

"You don't speak a lot, huh? That's fine." He chuckled. "I understand. It would be a bit awkward talking to some strange guy you've never met before."

"I'm sorry…" That's the only thing I could get out of my mouth.

"No need to apologize. I'm Naruto as you heard before. I'm Sasuke's chauffeur, butler. Whatever you want to call it."

I didn't understand why he was being so kind to me or even talking to me like he cared. I wasn't used to this feeling. After the last few days of what I've experienced it felt like I lost a piece of myself. It's like I didn't recognize what kindness was like anymore.

He stopped walking and turned around towards me. He was smiling at me.

"At least tell me your name if you're never attending to talk to me."

"My name?" I looked away from him.

"Tell me?"

"Sakura… Sakura Haruno…"

"That's a beautiful name." He continued to smiled at me before proceeding to walk again. We were coming up on another door, but this door led outside.

The man I would be calling Master now was standing there. Naruto ran up to him.

"Ahh sorry for taking so long Sasuke."

"It's fine Naruto." He patted him on the shoulder.

I walked up to the side of my new Master watching Naruto's movements. He walked up to a sleek black car that was parked in front of my Master. The windows were tinted black. I guess we were getting ready to leave this place.

Naruto opened the passenger door and waited for Sasuke to sit down. Once Sasuke sat down, he closed the car door. He opened the back door for me. Once I was in the car, Naruto hopped behind the wheel, and started the car.

The car started to move. I placed my hands in my lap and sat their patiently. I looked up for a moment. I noticed Naruto peeking at me through the rear view mirror. I looked away as soon as I noticed. He seemed like he would be trouble. I didn't want to get myself caught up with him. I was already in enough.

This was the start of my new life. The life I didn't choose, but the one someone else chosen for me. There wasn't anything I could do, but accept my faith.
