Dear Father,

As you may know, seven years ago I ran away from the immortal world to live with the humans…Over the past few years I was able to live my life freely but due to recent events I had decided to return to this hell of a place, the immortal world. I'm unwillingly given back my position as one of them and given the title once more of a Royal. Because I am yet to be trusted I am now under the watch of another. I have yet to meet him and I don't plan on knowing him either. As far as I'm concerned…..this world means nothing to me.

Fifteen minutes earlier

"My dear Haruno, I understand you have come back to us not of free will but from force of my assistant?" Long black hair framing his face, snake eyes, a hissing voice, and a smart ass attitude? That could only be one person…

Raising her head slowly, long light pink hair draped away from her face revealing her emerald eyes "I rather die defending a mortal, then to come back to this hell of a place. So to answer your question, Hell yes."

A loud laughter filled the room as the pink haired girl struggled in the arms of Orochimarus assistant "You may let her go Karin, I know her well enough to see she will not run"

"Yes sir" releasing the bear like hold she had on her, Karin barely had enough time to defend herself from the fist that was heading toward her already unattractive face. Chuckling when she watched Karin dust herself off, Sakura enjoyed the way the girl flew back from the impact of her amazing strength. Looking to Orochimaru who was also having a laugh from his assistants fall, his attention was soon back to discuss the current situation at hand. Before able to open his mouth, Sakura spoke with a sigh "I wonder if I put too much force" Her tone had no hint of sarcasm, it almost sounded, bored? Didn't most people fear Orochimaru? If so….this girl was doing one hell of a job hiding it.

It seems as if she hasn't lost her touch over the years…The snake like man watched Karin make her way to the girl who had managed to send her flying "Back off" The sudden seriousness and request to the red haired girl even caught Sakura off guard "If you cannot even defend yourself from a mere Immortal who hasn't fought in over seven years, but you Karin…you've been fighting all your life yet defeated in a matter of seconds, you're a disgrace to all royals"

Snapping her emerald eyes to red ones, they were soon averted back to Orochimaru "She's a Royal? ….. I can see since I left how much this place has changed. Even the all mighty Royals are weak? Pathetic…." I don't have time to linger around here…"Don't get me wrong Orochimaru, I'd love to stay but I really must be getting home, so if you will please open the gates back to the better world I'll be out of your wa-

Hearing a faint knock upon the large doors of the current room they resided in, Orochimaru began ignoring the young femal. Now focused on the presence around the door that led to the rest of the Castle "You may enter-"

"You damn snake, listen to me!" she ignored the gasps that came from the group of immortals that had entered the room, no one had ever dared speak to the head royal in that tone. The way Orochimaru changed his focus from the new bodies in the room to her emerald eyes made her regret ever opening her mouth at all. He was not in a happy.

Why you little…. "I assume you would like to know why you've been brought here" a slow nod was the only response he had gotten out "It's simple really, seven years have passed and you had yet returned from the humans. Let me remind you miss Haruno you were never permitted to leave this world in the first place. Immortals and Royals are not permitted to leave this world without permission" Before Sakura could protest "But to be fare it should have been expected that the top Royal we had would soon never return…I mean after all….one must get tired of all the- "

Clenching her fists a low growl escaped her tightly sealed jaw "I dare you to finish that sentence"

He let out a chuckle at the impatient tapping of the immortal girl's foot "The only logical thing to do was take you back. I mean after all what do those humans have that can't be provided here" leaning back in his chair Orochimaru observed the slight quiver in Sakura's eyes at his question.

"To be perfectly honest, I don't even know how you managed to find me in the first place. Those humans gave me a home where I had none…in reality you know nothing, at least they are able to live freely unlike you all" hissing her next words "and I will not stand here and listen to your unimportant babbling" turning to the large door, she started walking "I don't need you to open the gate back home, surely I can use my own-"

"I suggest you at least consider staying Miss Haruno" when she had turned around the malice smile that Orochimaru had was enough to make her stomach turn, any cut, bruise, anything that hadn't bothered her earlier came back then times harder "Karin" motioning it was time to reveal what he had been saving for last, the red eyed girl chucked. Throwing a small velvet bag straight toward Sakura, she had watched her catch the small bag with such ease and grace along with not even taking the time to look away from Orochimaru. This alone, made Karin resent the girl before her even more.

Opening the bag and turning it upside down a small charm bracelet had fallen out into the emerald eyed girls' right hand. Gently bringing it up to her eyes, they widened immensely "This belongs to…." not taking her eyes of the charms that surrounded the chain, they were a series of different colored flowers they were beautiful, and not from that world. Surprise soon turning into rage, Sakura charged for the Snake like man. Stopped before she could lay a hand on him, two men had her by the arms. Screaming hysterically, she tried every possible way to slip from the guards grip- "Leave her alone! You bastard!"

Smirking Orochimaru brought a hand up only to rest his chin on it "It's up to you. I'm sure you know the words that are needed to be said"

Speaking between her clenched teeth "I will not."

"I wonder how she's doing" chuckling "It'd be shame if anything happened to that little girl, but then again she's a human so what could that thing mean to you anyway"

Eyebrows twitching. 'That thing?! Barring her teeth she was now intense with anger, but it was not at the Royals before her. Damn it! Because of me she'll be killed if I return back to that world. I…."I'll stay". Upon those words she was released. Clenching the velvet bag as if her life depended on it Sakura began to storm out. Orochimaru lifted his head realizing she was not about to stop on her quest on leaving the current room.

Chuckling for his victory "Miss Haruno! Please do not wonder too far off the Castel, I'll be sending someone to look after you later and I'm certain he won't like the idea of having to search for you-"

Looking back over her left shoulder, few words were spoken before shoving past the group of jaw dropped Immortals and out the door "Your dogs' problem isn't any of mine…"
