Chapter 2

"What's the big idea here?" Sakura screamed, "Untie me!"

Itachi was silent as he watched her try to free herself from the bondage he had put on her, he let out a throaty chuckle at her failed attempt, he turned on his heel and left the
room, making sure to lock it behind him. He continued to walk down the dark and dreary corridor leading to Pein's office. Without knocking he opened up the red door.

"What is it?" Pein questioned without looking up.

"We have someone in captivity from the Leaf Village." Itachi replied.

Pein looked up with a raised eyebrow, "Take me to him."

"Her." Itachi corrected his leader.

"Hm, lets go."

As they both walked down the empty hallway towards Sakura's barricaded room, quick footsteps came from behind them. As they turned around they were joined with Kisame. The three made it to the room as Itachi opened the door, Sakura looked up silently as Pein turns to Itachi and Kisame with furrowed brows.

"You're kidding." Pein jokingly stated, giving a dark deep chuckle. "This is our hostage? This is who we will bribe the Leaf Village with?"

"With all do respect, Pein, she plays a bigger role than she portrays, I've been studying her for quite some time." Kisame gave his input.

"This little girl is one of the strongest medical-nin there is so far, and she is also the Hokages apprentice." Kisame continued.

"Hokages apprentice, you say?" Pein looked at Sakura with one raised eyebrow. "Well done, you two." With that he turned around and walked out leaving Sakura with her two kidnappers.

This whole time Sakura remained silent, she needed to make a move and make it fast but these chakra ropes are slowly draining her own energy, if she was gonna do something she'd do it now while she's at her highest strength. In one split second, Sakura broke through the chakra ropes and charged at the two. She instantly regretted it as Itachi nonchalantly grabbed her by her throat and lifted her off the floor. As she's kicking and hitting him trying to get air, he chuckled. "You stupid girl." He threw her against the farthest wall, without tying her back up him and Kisame left the room.

"Let me out of here and fight me like a man!" Sakura screamed, punching the door repeatedly.

It seems like hours had passed, sitting in a dark enclosed room theres not much room to find a way to escape. Down the hall Sakura could hear voices, multiple voices.

"You're an idiot! Wipe it up or I'll wipe you up with it." Konan screams at Deidara after he dropped his glass of water on the floor resulting in sharp glass shards everywhere and a very wet floor. Everyone seemed to think it was funny besides Pein and Itachi of course, who were sitting silently, ignoring the commotion. "I'm living with a bunch of jack asses." Konan said and walked out.

Itachi got up and grabbed a bowl of soup and a glass of water and walked towards Sakura's room. He opened the door to find the pink haired nin laying sound asleep in the far corner of the room. 'I knew she would wear herself out eventually.' He walked towards her with the tray of food and water and placed it by her sleeping body, he stared at her for a slight moment, taking his hand and wiping off some dirt from her face. Her eyes twitched a tad bit but she was still sound asleep, As Itachi was turning to leave, he felt something flying his way, easily dodging out of the way he saw the tray of food shattered, wood and glass everywhere.

"I don't need your pity or your food. I need you to let the the fuck out of this place or I will kill you." Sakura screamed, standing upright. Wasn't she just sound asleep?

Itachi chuckled, "So be it, you will not be fed, I will let you starve."

"What is this? What am I to you guys?" She screamed and thought to herself, 'If they wanted me dead, I would already be, so what do they want?'

"It's very simple," Itachi began, "You will help us take down the Leaf Village once and for all. Its gonna be war." He have the darkest and scariest smirk and left Sakura once again, in a dark cold room.


It's been a couple days since she last saw Itachi, or anyone for that matter. He wasn't kidding when he said she will starve, Sakura was the weakest she's ever been. She has barely any energy to get up and her stomach is eating itself, she needs food and water and she needs it now but like hell she will beg these criminals for it. Sakura needs to find a way out, but how?

Sakura walks up to the door and places her hand on the handle, hesitating for a second she finally turns the knob, to her despair she hears a click. 'Of course it's locked, what was I even thinking?' Sakura lets out a deep sigh and goes back to the corner, she sat down against the wall with her knees pulled to her chest.


Back in Konaha

"Yamato is in critical condition right now but should be okay in a few weeks time," Tsunade says to his sensei. "How's the recruitment for the search team going we cannot waste anymore time."

Relieved from Tsunade reassuring that his student will be okay, Danzo Shimura nodded, "I will go check on everything, we should all head out tonight."

"See that you do that. I need Sakura back safe and alive, Kakashi must come with you all so find him and bring back my student." Tsunade stated before leaving in a gust of wind.

'We're coming, Sakura, hang in there.' Tsunade thought to herself as she made her way back to her office.


Akatsuki Hideout

"Man, I still can't believe the strength that girl has, she broke your chakra ropes so easily, you're losing your drive buddy." Kisame jokingly slapped Itachi on the back.

Itachi gave him an icy glare, if looks could kill, trust and believe Kisame would be murked.

Kisame put both his hands up in pretend-self defense as he laughed. "I'm just saying man I think you might've found your match."

"If I wanted her to be completely confined, I could've made that happen, but I didn't because I didn't see that it was necessary, you're speaking out of line." Itachi stated and got up to fetch a bowl of food and some water and walking to Sakura's room.

"Now, lets try this again, shall we?" Itachi said blandly as he opened the door and made eye contact with the kunoichi. He kneeled down in front of her and placed the tray on her lap, he stayed in this same position as he watch sakura devour the food and water.

"So, you ready to cooperate?" Itachi questioned and received a black stare from Sakura.

He got back on his feet and picked Sakura's weak body up bridal style and carried her out of the room.

"I can walk by myself." She stated as he ignored her, the short walk was spent in complete silence, she couldn't help but stare at his face considering how close they were, 'My god did he resemble Sasuke-kun…' She thought to herself.

She caught herself admiring how beautiful this bloody killer was, his face angles and features, the way his bangs casted over his face slightly covering his eyes, and his eye… they're so blank and dull but in a weird way so… beautiful.

Her thoughts were interrupted when she was placed on her feet in front of a door, Itachi walks in and runs the water, in no time the room got steamy and humid.

Itachi walks over to her handing her a towel and a change of clothes, she doesn't question this act of kindness though she was very confused, 'what is he planning on doing? If he thinks I'm gonna randomly trust him after this he's an idiot.'

She takes off her very dirty ANBU uniform and steps into the shower, she takes her time lathering up her hair and ridding her body of its nasty odor that developed in the past few days. Once she was finished she wrapped the towel around her clean and wet body and walks out of the bathroom, to her surprise Itachi was laying on the bed with his eyes closed. She quickly scurried back into the bathroom and slammed the door, for she was still naked.

'Oh my god, is this his room?' She thought, as she quickly dried herself off and put on the clothes that he handed her. A black tank top and a pair of black leggings, there was also a grey hoodie so she threw that on also just to try and hide some of the skin that she was showing. She finally walks out of the bathroom and Itachi was gone.

She looks around the room, carefully not touching anything he's no where in site. She walked to the door and peaked out in the hallway, it's too dark for her to see anything so she decided to grow some balls and try to find a way out. Sakura has no idea where the hell she's even going but she's just gonna walk and pray she finds any kind of door.

Being careful to not make any noice, she reached a door, a red one at that. Her gut is giving her a terrible churning feeling about this but she has nothing to lose right now, she turned the knob and yanked it open. She observed her surroundings, many many bookshelves and a desk with a lot of paperwork on it. It's an office, it's someones office. She walks over to the desk and look at some of the work, she dug in the drawers and everything, nothing.

Out of the corner of her eye she sees her scroll that they took from her, opened laying on one of the bookshelves, she ran over to it relieved, she stuck it in her jacket pocket and ran out the door and down the dark corridor to find another way out. Just as she thought she was making great progress she came colliding into a strong built chest, she looks up and she is face to face with Uchiha Itachi.

"Where are you running off too, Blossom?" Itachi asked and picked her up and threw her over his shoulder.

"Let me down! What do you guys want with me?" She screamed as she kicked her legs and threw her arms, completely forgetting that she had the scroll in her pocket it managed to slip out and hit the floor, making Itachi stop in his tracks and picking it up.

"You are a very bad girl, Blossom." The way he said it made her widen her eyes, the chills came crawling up her back and she froze. He continued to walk until he reached his room, pushing them both inside the door he placed the scroll down on his dresser and threw her on his bed.

"Hey! What are you doi-" Sakura started but was cut off with him wrapping on hand around her neck and with his other hand he had both her arms pinned above her head.

He ducked his head into the crevice of her neck, without touching her with his lips he blew on her skin making her shiver, the goosebumps rose on her skin.

"What in the hell do you think you're doing?" Sakura managed to vocalized through his strong grip on her throat.

"If you try this escape shit again there will be serious consequences, do you understand me, my blossom?" He breathed into her neck making her completely freeze. He pulled himself off of her, gave her a smirk and left the room, leaving her on his bed confused and slightly afraid.

Her breathing was heavy as she tried to put together what just happened, she was never one to take shit from anyone else, she always stood up for herself so why is she so nervous? And more importantly… Why was she kind of turned on?
