Chapter 1 : The Encounter

"Sakura...my beautiful Sakura...you don't know how much I love you."

"No..NO...STAY AWAY FROM ME!"

"Hahaha...do you think I will let you escape me? You are mine! Do you understand?! MINE!" Sakura felt a hand grabbing her arm, pulling her towards this black figure. She felt a chill run down her spine as a wet kiss was placed on her neck.

I need to get out, I will not tolerate this...I can't... not again!

Present Day

"AHHH!"

Sakura woke up from her dream drenched in sweat. She scanned the room, making sure no one else was in there. As she slowly took in the surroundings, her heartbeat was slowly resuming its steady pace. It's only a dream, was her first thought. The second was no, it couldn't be called a dream, more like a nightmare.

"Dammit, I thought I was done with this...what the hell?!"

She rubbed her eyes and glanced at the little alarm clock. It's face glowed, illuminating the numbers 2:00 am.

"DAMN! It's only 2 am and here I am, awake!"

Even as the words left her lips, Sakura recalled the sensation of fear and disgust consuming all other thoughts and emotions. She felt the cold sweat lingering on her upper lip and quickly jumped out her queen-sized bed, irritated at herself and the nightmare that has been constantly haunting her for the past few years.

"I need to get out. I can't stay here...that dream will just keep coming back...Shit!"

Sakura slammed her fist into the wall and a loud crack was heard followed by pieces of the plaster falling to the ground. She quickly turned her focus to her bedroom door to ensure no one would be running this way. Being the disciple and favorite of Tsunade made her a valuable asset to both Tsunade and the other Yakuza gang leaders. Even a slightest sound would alert her comrades to come racing to her room to see if she was alright. Needless to say she didn't really need their help if something happened, she was the top fighter with a fist that no one could dodge. She could hold her own ground and wouldn't need anyone to protect her, especially a man.

Sakura grimaced as she realized the sensation would not dissipate. She needed to be distracted, and she knew exactly what she could do. She turned to closet to pull out her fighting outfit. A pair of long black slacks, laced up heeled boots and her black fighting gloves. She turned to grab the cloth bandages on her dresser. She slowly wound the cloth around her chest securing everything in place with a pin. Grabbing her black scarf, she wrapped it around her face until it covered her mouth and her nose. She walked towards the mirror to glance at her reflection. Bright green eyes glanced back at her, gleaming like emeralds in the moon's light. Her hair was pulled tightly back into a ponytail with a few strands of pink hair caressing her face. She smiled, pleased with herself, she prepared to sneak out of her room. The last lingering thought in her mind was: time to wreak some havoc.

"Crap, I didn't want to run into this idiot." Sasuke thought to himself, trying to figure out whether he should turn around and go back to the main house. The thought of having to explain to his brother why the hell he was out so late did not appeal to him...at all. Guess the only option is to deal with this idiot.

"Well, Well, Well...if it isn't the little Uchiha boy. Where's Itachi? Aren't you afraid to be out so late?"

Sasuke turned to fix his glare at the guy who spoke. His name was Deidara, one of the members in the Akatsuki gang. He was known for picking a fight with anyone that looked at him wrong. Sasuke took in his appearance, Deidara's hair was down and his shirt was ripped and his face had a few scratches.

"Looks like someone got in a fight. What do you think Pein will say when he sees you fighting again for no damn reason? Are you trying to tarnish the Akatsuki's name?"

That little stuck up Uchiha thinks he can talk to me like that? Just because his brother is Itachi?! F that! Deidara lunged forward and prepared to hit Sasuke with a right hook when someone stopped his fist with their bare hands.

"What the hell is going on here?"

Deidara looked down to see a pair of bright green eyes glaring at him. It took him a moment to realize that this person was a woman. A smile played across his lips.

"What do you know, a female has come out to play! A pretty one at that."

Deidara tried to pull his arm out of the girl's grip but it was impossible. Instead, he smiled and used his other arm to caress her waist and pull her towards him.

"If you wanna play, just wait a bit. I need to take care of something first"

Sakura immediately began thinking about all of the ways she could kill this guy. He was a damn play boy that irked her for some reason. His cocky attitude added to her growing anger. She turned to look at the other guy just standing there. He had black hair and was dressed all in black...probably an emo kid who was getting picked on. As her eyes meet his ebony colored eyes, something changed...no not an emo.

"Was I interrupting?"

Sasuke barely even realized the girl was speaking to him. He couldn't take his eyes of her green cat like eyes. Who is she and what does she think she is doing? She could get hurt was his first thought, but looking at her eyes, he saw a shadow hidden behind their green exterior. No, maybe she wouldn't get that hurt.

"Well?"

Sasuke focused on the girl and shook his head. "I'm just having a friendly conversation with Deidara"

"Deidara?" Sakura's eyes widened and turned to glance at the long haired man.

"Yup, that's me. The one and only. Now if you would please step aside so I can finish this conversation with my...uh...friend here."

"Before I do, is this the same Deidara that took down Shizune's group a few weeks ago?"

"Oh?! So you have heard of me? It was a great fight! Left that woman half beaten... "

Before Deidara could finish his sentence, Sakura slammed her fist into his face. A cracking noise could be heard. Blood began to fall from his nose.

"What the hell?"

Sakura pivoted and slammed her right heel into the side of his face. Within seconds, Deidara was on the ground knocked out.

"That was for Shizune."
