Going Down with You

Summary: Fox is an assassin working solo, transports important clients in exchange for money without the need to know the details. When Sakura Haruno gets kidnapped and held hostage with an enormous ransom fund, and gets betrayed by the bank's CEO, Sasuke Uchiha, Fox has to transport her to the meeting site even though Sakura is his best friend. But there's a glitch, she and Fox are strapped with bombs that would tick off if they get separated from each other. And Sakura Haruno isn't as "clean" as she claims to be…

Chapter 1 – Kidnapped

UCHIHA & HARUNO'S, KONOHA, NORTH JAPAN 11:43 PM

"Yes, sir. We've made the transaction a few minutes ago. The client would reply to it within a few hours. Yes. No, not really. It's ok, we'll handle it. No, Takashi already left for Beijing an hour ago, with the documents…" Sakura rolled her eyes, clenching her fists at how annoying the client is… "alright, sir. Bye."

She hang up, and muttered, "Oh, fuck you, asshole!"

"Another insisting client?" a cold voice said, behind her.

She stretched her sore arms, and nodded, her pink locks falling in her eyes. "Yep. We're getting more of them by the months… What happened to the calm understanding ones?"

Her colleague, Sasuke Uchiha, CEO of the bank, sat on her desk, smirking, "Guess they retired, and I don't blame them…"

Sakura snorted, "They must be spending their days laughing at us…lucky geezers…"

She was rewarded with a cold stare from him, but after knowing him for 16 years, she knew he was inwardly laughing at her sarcastic comment. "Listen, it's nearly 8. And my friends and I are inviting you to Casper and Gambini's. Wanna come?"

Sakura raised her light pink eyebrows, "Friends? You mean these selfish bastards that hang out with u?"

He nodded, already grabbing her coat and throwing it at her face, which she caught easily. She stood up, grimacing…"Do I really have to go?"

"Let me see. Would you like to hang out with Ino, shopping until your credit card screams for mercy, or take a few good drinks at an awesome restaurant?"

Sakura rubbed her jeans legs, "I'd go with a few good drinks!"

CASPER & GAMBINI'S, KONOHA OUTSKIRTS, JAPAN 01:34 AM

Sakura hiccupped, "I gotta…admit! This is..so,..*hic* good!"

Sasuke laughed, "You got wasted, huh?"

Sakura frowned and slapped him on the face, and hiccupped, "Hang-over …*hic* is a bitch!" and she collapsed on the asphalt.

Sasuke smiled, and his drunk look washed off to be replaced one with ultimate darkness and a very stony look… he pulled out his phone, and speed dialed a number… "Yes. She's down, just as you predicted. I must say, you are quiet a sidekick, my friend!"

He went down to one knee and ruffled through Sakura's camo bag, searching for something, anything that would confirm his doubts about his mysterious collegue. As he was busy opening her wallet, an ID card fell down on the road. He picked it up and turned it, his eyes going wide in shock.

"No fucking….way! She's … no… who the hell is she!" he muttered, apparently in shock and his mind going a million miles an hour with this shocking news… 'Sakura isn't just a normal civilian and a Finance Manager… she's an as–'

"Well done, Sasuke. We'll take it from here…" Sasuke looked up to see a man walking out in normal civilian clothes, jeans and a black T-shirt which hid the true life of this man. He responded to the name of Sai, and known in the black market world as Japan's best thief and one of the Yakuza.

Because he was abnormally pale, with short-cropped black hair, Sai operated at night, and faking his identity as an artist in the day. He was the boss of his own section, Roots in the Yakuza as well.

His men picked up the wasted Haruno and tied her up with hard sailor ropes and duct tape across her mouth. They dumped her in the trunk of the Toyota, which was already bullet-proof and slammed the trunk shut.

Sasuke handed Sai the Haruno's purse and her special ID. The Yakuza's black eyes glittered with wonder and he smiled a tight smile, "Well, I guess we just grabbed the person we're trying to eliminate. I'll make sure I torture her enough before I hand her a death she deserves…"

Sasuke nodded, and internally, he didn't even pity his collegue's fate. Ever since she entered the building, he had high doubts about her… and in the banking world, doubts can distract you, and she was a big distraction. But, he just eliminated her and her other life… 2 birds with one stone…

Sai snickered and patted the Uchiha's shoulders, "Just seeing you turns me on…"

The Uchiha stepped away, revolted and disgusted… Sai was also the world's gayest guy…

Sai sighed and gave him a sick smile before turning around and climbing inside the black, tinted Toyota. "See you around, Sasuke. And you'll find your reward tomorrow morning in your bank account. Thanks a million!"

And they drove off.

Sasuke walked the other direction to a secluded side alley to find his Mazda waiting for him. But there were a few bitches hanging around, and once they spotted him, they walked up to his car and sat on the front of it, giving the Uchiha a lustful look.

"Nice car you've got…" one of them said, carelessly pulling apart her legs and meowing at him.

Sasuke smirked, "What are you three doing here?"

The second batted her eyelashes at him and walked over to him in a seductive way…."What a fucking dumb question. We missed you, Sasuke-kun…" she whispered in his ears, and already grinded her lower body on his side.

The third managed to find his keys and climbed inside. Sasuke sighed, "You piss me off, you know…"

They giggled and dragged him to his car and the three climbed inside. They were actually the secretaries in the bank, and the three were Sasuke's personal bitches. Sasuke sighed, 'I won't sleep on my own tonight…Oh well, I want all these troubles to fade anyway…'

KONOHA OUTSKIRTS 4:53 AM

His iPhone rang. Twice. 'Can't they just leave me alone?' he growled as he twisted a man's arm tight and kicked his ass. Hard.

He yelped and was spead-eagled on the ground. He turned to see another coming at him with a knife, but the man was soon kissing the asphalt as he got kicked in the groins hard. The person picked up, "What?" he growled.

"Well, I can see you're still awake, Fox."

Fox frowned, "Do I know you?" he asked, and spotted another gang closing in on him. He sighed and listened to the mysterious caller as he started taking the stupid assholes down, two at a time.

The person at the other end chuckled, "No. But you soon will know me. I've heard a lot about you, and your ability to perform tasks solo."

Fox sighed, "Can't it wait for the morning at least?" he asked, and looked at the gang, "I'm kind of busy right now."

The guy still chuckled, "And your great ability at multi-tasking is simply captivating. But I'm sorry, this job can't wait because it's got a short shelf-life."

Fox groaned, in the street talk, short shelf-life meant that the job needs to be done within days before the company at the receiving end cancels the deal. And usually this is very dirty business with dirty money. It's mostly hostages and ransom funds to be paid. But the person doing this dirty work receives a hefty amount of money, everything in cash. And freedom from any jobs for at least 3 months.

"Alright. What's the package?" Fox asked, in his professional voice as he finally knocked out the last gang member and climbing up the roof with ease.

"The package is a very important person, a Finance Manager. Meet us at the main highway, 20 kilometers from Tokyo, in one hour."

Naruto nodded, but as well as groaning. He had this feeling this job will get very sticky and complicated…

How very true he was…
