Itachi had wasted no time in getting Sakura into the Akatsuki base. He pulled her along the corridors so fast that she barely knew where she was going. It wasn't until Itach pushed her into a room that Sakura noticed her suroundings. The room was a dark beige color and looked rather bare except for the bed and desk that sat very dully. There were a few boxes under the bed but other than that the room was empty. There was no color whatsoever in the room and not one window. It felt like a prison. Sakura turned and looked back at Itachi and noticed his sharingan was off. It caught her off gaurd. Did he really think she was so weak that he coulde let down his defenses like that? This thought made her rather insulted.

"You'll stay here. You musn't leave ever unless I come for you. Break the rules and you die" He commanded. Sakura shuddered knowing he wounldn't break his word. He then pulled out her mask from his cloak.

'When did he put that in there?' Sakura thought. He looked at her.

"The fox is the trickiest and slyiest of all animals. It is also the most untrustworthy. For someone with such a great mask I would think they would be harder to capture. So tell me, how did you recieve such a mask?" He asked.

Sakura was suprised he knew so much about the mask. Masks were given to you based on your skills and personality. She always took great pride in having the fox. And it also held sentimental value because Naruto was the one that assigned her that mask. She sighed.

'Naruto'

"I asked you a question" Sakura jolted from her thoughts. She glared at him.

"You'll just have to wait and see" She spoke with a glare that had he been a lesser man he would have proberly backed away. But he wasn't.

He smirked.

"You should learn respect. It will get you farther in life" He said.

"Like I give a damn" She spoke as she looked away and crossed her arms. She knew she proberly looked like a child but she just didn't care.

"You are rather stubborn" He spoke as he placed the mask back in his cloak. She noticed this and looked back up at him.

"Why am I here? What do you want me for?" She asked still with her arms crossed.

"You'll find out soon enough. But for now I want you to heal and train the shinobi here." Sakura's eyes widened

"LIKE HELL I WILL! There is no way I'm gonna help the Akatsuki." She lashed out. Her arms flew out to give more expression to her anger. He grabbed her wrists tightly before she could attack him. Her eyes widened as he held her wrists in such a grip that was sure to leave bruises.

"You will do as your told. Or die" He spoke as he leaned in close.

"Then let me die." She said as she gritted her teeth. Her anger felt like it was coming off her in waves. Itachi looked at her like he was trying to understand something. For a glimpse of a second he looked like he felt something. What that was though Sakura didn't know. But it shocked her and she gasped slightly at his sudden slip of emotion. Itachi suddenly realized what he was doing and let go of her wrists.

'Well now I'm dead' She waited for him to kill her but it never came. He walked to the door and turned slightly to look at her.

"I'll be back" And he left just like that. She heard the door lock behind him and Sakura fell to her knees out of total exhaustion.

"Look at the mess you've gotten yourself into this time, Sakura"

She looked at her ankle. It was bleeding thoroughly. She hadn't noticed it earlier. She must have cut it when she had carried Rain and fallen. She pressed her hand over it and healed it swiftly with the last remaining chakra she had. She didn't have much chakra so it would be a mediocre healing. Once it was done she pulled her hand away and looked at it.

"Slight bruises, No infection, clean cut. It'll scar" She spoke in her medic voice. She looked at her arm where her Konoha headband was. It had been cut during the battle.

"Rain you were very stupid"

"Area secured. There are no shinobi in the area." The captain said over the walkie talkie.

"Have you seen the spy?" Sakura whispered into it.

"No. He might have gone out the front way to where you are."

"We haven't seen anything" Sakura spoke.

"We don't have much more time. They'll spot us eventually" He whispered. Sakura stayed silent. Rain took the walkie talkie from Sakura.

"What should we do?"

"Get Dirsky to try and sneak in a bit closer."

Rain stiffened and almost dropped the walkie talkie if Sakura hadn't caught it.

"Is he the only one that can do it?" Sakura asked trying to keep her voice even.

"Yes. He is the best at hiding his chakra signature and much faster than any of us besides Lee." The captain spoke.

"No" Rain whispered. Sakura sighed.

"Alright we'll cover him. But what about Jin?" She asked.

"Jin will follow behind him. So if there is trouble he can back him up"

Sakura turned slightly away from Rain so she could whisper without being heard be her. She pulled the walkie talkie close to her lips.

"Shika, What if this is all a trap? What if the Akatsuki knew we were coming and killed the spy?"

There was a long pause. She knew he was thinking how likely the possibility was and that scared her.

"We have to at least try." He spoke not sounding so confident but Sakura chose to ignore it. She had to be strong....not for herself but for Rain.

"Affirmitave" Sakura said before she turned off the walkie talkie. She looked at Rain. She looked like she had just seen a ghost. Sakura placed a hand on Rain's shoulder.

"Dirsky is strong. He won't die" Sakura said. A small tear fell from Rain's eye.

"But what if he does. What if he IS killed. I can't go on without him." Rain whipered trying to hold back the tears.

'She is just like how I use to be. So convinced that love is all there is to life.' Sakura squeezed Rain's shoulder. Rain looked up at her.

"Don't worry everything will be fine" Rain nodded and they ran to there positions.

But everything wouldn't be fine. Because of her stupid mistake.

Sakura sighed. Sakura walked towards the small bed and sat down. She took off her headband and looked at it.

"I miss you, Rain" She whispered. She missed everything. Now that she was here she would surely never see any of her friends again. She doubted she'd even live another day. She laid down on the bed and looked at the ceiling. She was rather confused as to why Itachi hadn't killed her already.

'Itachi is someone I will never be able to understand. He destroyed his entire clan for power so that shows he has spychotic tendencies but today he seemed so very much like any other shinobi. I mean he never shows any kind of emotion so I will never know what he's thinking and he is ruthless and merciless killer. But aren't we all killers in the end? Still he is know for torturing Sasuke, so why did he let me live? After I refused to help him and even when I said to kill me? Maybe he is trying to lure me into a false sense of security so he can extract information from me.'

Sakura thought long and hard until her thoughts put her to sleep.

But Sakura was awakened hours later when the door opened. Sakura sat up quickly, ready to attack whoever thought it was wise to try and sneak up on a Konoha konoichi only to see a young girl who only looked to be maybe seventeen or sixteen walk in. The girl was pretty but you couldn't tell because she was so dirty. Her brown hair was tied up in a bun and Sakura also noticed the girl had a plate of food in her hands. The girl set the plate and a pair of chopsticks on the bed in front of Sakura. The girl bowed.

"Forgive me for intruding but Itachi-sama asked me to bring you food." Her voice shook slightly and Sakura could tell she was quite afraid. "Who are you?" Sakura asked as she looked down at the plate. It was just rice and a apple and some grapes....but at the moment it looked like a feast. She hadn't eaten in thirty-six hours.

"I am just a humble maid. Please do not be angry with me. I am sorry the food is not warm" She said still with her head bowed

"Why would I be angry?" Sakura questioned as she picked up the pair of chopsticks and began to eat some of the rice. She was very hungry but was trying to mantain some of her manners and not just gobble the whole thing down like a slob so she wouldn't scare the poor girl off.

"Well miss, the men and guests here are never very forgiving to us servents" She spoke softly.

"I see and I'm a guest?" Sakura spoke inbetween mouthfuls of rice.

"Yes Itachi-sama said you were" The girl said as she looked up at Sakura. Sakura was gulped her mouthfull of rice. 'A guest?' She looked up to the girl and decided to come back to that later and spoke.

"Well no need to be so formal. My name is Sakura. What is yours?" The girl's eyes sparkled slightly.

"My name is Machi, Sakura-sama." The girl spoke. Sakura smiled. Machi seemed to be surprised at the smile she was recieving and blushed slightly. Sakura thought it was charming how easily embarassed the girl was. It reminded her of Hinata.

"Well Machi I'm glad to meet you and so you know, I am as much of a prisoner as you are." Sakura said. The girl tilted her head slghtly and looked a bit confused.

"I do not understand. Itachi-sama said you were a guest." Machi spoke.

"Well I'm not. My life seems to be in his hands now, so I am at his mercy. If I could leave I would." Sakura spoke softly looking down at her food as she set her chopsticks down.

"I'm sorry" Machi whispered. Sakura looked up at her. "There is no reason for you to be apologizing! And don't worry. I can take care of myself. I am a shinobi of the leaf" She spoke trying to cheer the servant girl up. Machi glanced up at her looking mystified.

"You are a shinobi?" Machi asked in disbelief.

Sakura smiled. "Yep."

"Thats amazing. I never see any woman shinobi. You must be very strong" Machi spoke as she leaned forward slightly.

"Hmmmm. Well I geuss." Sakura spoke. Suddenly, Sakura noticed Machi staring at her head rather curiously. "What? What is there something on my face?" Sakura asked.

Machi hesitated but spoke. "Ummm Sakura-sama do you mnd if I ask a question?" She asked looking a bit nervous.

"Sure"

"Umm...well... is... is that your real hair color?" She flushed. Sakura laughed.

"Yes it is a strange color but it is my real hair color nontheless" Sakura said with a bright smile. Machi seeming to gather some courage smiled back at her. Then suddenly the door opened and Itachi stepped in. Machi turned quickly and bowed her head

"Itachi-sama" She spoke. Itach didn't even glance at Machi. He stared at Sakura rather rudely. Sakura glared back.

"Leave" Itachi said to Machi.

"Hai" She said as she ran out of the room. Sakura eyed Itachi suspisiously.

"What do you want?" She asked with a hateful expression. He grabbed her arm so swiftly that she didn't even have time to move away and pulled her off the bed easily. It angered her that she was in this position. She barely had any chakra and he knew it. He knew he could overcome her at any moment and didn't seem to reluctent to show it.

"Come with me" He spoke as he pulled her towards the door. She used what little strength she had and jerked out of his grasp. She was surprised she even managed to do it. But it seems Itachi hadn't expected it either with the wide eyed look-well as wided eyed as Itachi can be-he was giving her.

"Where are you taking me?" She asked trying to hold voice together and not let him see or hear the panic she felt at that very moment. He turned to her and gave her a contemplative look before proceeding to tell her.

"To our leader"

Itachi dragged Sakura down the halls roughly. Sakura tried her hardest to pull away but couldn't. His grip was just too tight and she didn't want to waste what little chakra she had on him when she was about to face Itachi's leader. Sakura sighed in defeat and followed him. She glanced at her surroundings. The hallways were dark and bare.

'I haven't seen a window yet' Sakura thought as she scanned the walls. She was a bit scared but of course who wouldn't be scared? She was about to meet the leader of Akatsuki. He must be a formidable shinobi if he is able to boss Uchiha Itachi around. Just thinking about it made Sakura nervous. What if they were planning to torture her for information? She knew she would die before she gave away any Konoha secrets but she still didn't like the outcome of dying. Itachi suddenly stopped, pulling Sakura from her thoughts. She almost ran into him but he reflexs seemed to still be working and managed to stop in time. Sakura peered over his shoulder to see a large wooden door. He turned and looked at her. His Mangakeyo Sharingan was on again and it sent a chill down Sakura's spine.

"If you cross him he will surely kill you" He spoke cautiously. It almost seemed like he was concerned for her but Sakura knew better. Itachi turned and opened the door slowly. Sakura looked through the doorway.

'Its competely black. No way somebody is in there' Sakura thought. Itachi stepped behind her and placed a hand on her shoulder. She stiffened at the contact. "Remember what I said" He whispered into her ear right before he pushed her into the dark room. She stumbled slightly and looked back at Itachi. For once he didn't look so bad and she actually felt like she felt safer with him than she did in here.

"Go" He commanded. She looked away from him and walked in slowly. Just when she was in the middle of the room the door behind her shut. She turned swiftly but saw nothing but darkness.

'Shit! ok ok... DON'T PANIC. DON'T PANIC' Sakura ran to where she remembered the door to be and found the handle and shook it. But it wouldn't budge.

'Damn' Sakura looked around but it was really all in vain because she couldn't see anything. She sighed and sat on the ground and leaned her head against the door.

'What am I gonna do now?' She thought as she pulled her knees up close to her chest and wrapped her arms around them.

"So you're the Hokage's apprentice" A voice spoke. Sakura looked up quickly. She looked around for the owner of the voice but found noone.

"Who are you?" She said as she stood quickly.

"I am the leader of the Akatsuki" The voice spoke. His voice sounded like it was coming from all sides of the room. Sakura shivered.

'Great now I'm locked in a dark room WITH the leader of the Akatsuki'

"What do you want from me?" Sakura asked. The voice chuckled.

"You aren't the one I want"

"Then who is?" She asked as she took a fighting stance. She knew full well that if it came down to a fight she would most certainly die.... but that wasn't going to stop her from trying.

"That is none of your concern at the moment. You should be more worried about yourself." Sakura stayed silent. She was trying to sense his chakra signature. She felt something faint behind her and tried to focus on it.

"You killed Sasori. You killed my newest member of Akatsuki, Gerin and you destroyed many other shinobi. You have been a thorn in my side for a while now"

"So what do you want from me?" She asked hesitantly as she kept focusing on the chakra. She just needed him to drop his guard.

"Repayment" The voice whispered menacingly.

Suddenly a chill went down her spine and she felt something breathing on her neck.

"You will work for us now" She felt the leader say against her ear. Sakura took a breath. Now was her chance.

"LIKE HELL I WILL" She yelled as she turned and kicked. She felt her foot graze something and could only assume that was the leader. Well she had at least come close. Thats more than she had actually expected.

"Lets see how strong you really are" She heard him say. Suddenly she felt the chakra signature right in front of her but before she could make a move something hit her mouth hard. She fell to her knees. Her hand went up to her mouth and she could feel blood in it. 'Great....I hope I don't lose any teeth.'

"I thought you were the Hokage's apprentice?" He said with a snicker. Sakura placed her hands on the floor and pushed herself up slowly. She ached everywhere her body was finally beginning to realize the damage it had endured during the past thirty-six hours. Sakura wiped the blood from her mouth and stood defiantly. She closed her eyes and felt all around her. She suddenly felt chakra coming at her. She ducked and counter attacked with a punch. She hit air.

'Danm. Missed' She thought as she got back into her fighting stance."Seems you're a little good." She heard him say. Sakura gritted her teeth. She felt another burst of chakra and swiftly pushed her chakra into her heel and kicked at it. Her foot hit flesh.

'Yes!' But then something grabbed her foot and flipped her over. Her hands caught her fall but she still fell to the floor face down.

"Shit" She said aloud. A hand grabbed a fistfull of her hair and pulled her up by it. He started to hit her face. Fists of chakra came at her and she had no way of dodging so she took it. She wanted to fight him but her body just wouldn't listen. She had never felt so powerless before.

"It seems you're not as strong as you think you are" The leader said as he punched her again. Sakura felt blood dripping from her head and could feel her face going numb. She knew she didn't have anything left. He was too strong. And anything she did would just delay the inevitable. So she just closed her eyes and let it happen.

'I'm gonna die. This is it.' She thought sadly as she felt the life draining from her. 'I hope there is a heaven' She thought as she gave in to what she assumed would be the end but suddenly he let go of her. She fell face first on the floor. She laid on her stomach. She opened her eyes slowly. She saw the door open and watched the light shine in. She smiled slightly.

'Mabey I'll finally get to die.' She thought as she slowly lost conciousness. The last thing she heard was Itachi speaking softly.

"How very foolish" And everything went black.

"Five broken ribs. One broken arm" A woman's voice said.

"Sensei, how do you think they got here?"

"I don't know but-" Shikamaru opened his eyes and squinted at how bright the room was.

"Where am I?" He asked groggily. Tsunade and Shizune looked at him.

"You're in the hospital." Tsunade spoke softly.

"Where is my team?" He asked remembering the mission and all that happened. Tsunade marched up to his bed.

"I should be asking you that. We just found you and Lee dumped at the gates! Where is the rest of your team? What of the mission?! And WHERE IS SAKURA?" Tsunade shouted not at all caring for the sensitive hearing of other patients in the hospital. Shikamaru sat up quickly and looked around. Lee was asleep on a bed next to him. He looked back up at Tsunade

"You mean they aren't here?" He asked.

"NO!" Tsunade shouted. Shizune grabbed onto Tsunade to cool her off.

"But... I don't understand how I got here. One minute I was getting the crap kicked out of me and now I'm here? Why did they bring me back?" He asked himself as he Massaged his head.

"What of your other members. What of the mission?" Shizune asked. Shikamaru looked down at his lap and dropped his hand. He clenched his hands together.

"The mission was a failure. There was a anbush. And a stupid mistake was made and we were never able to get the scroll"

'It had been her fault. She made the mistake' He thought.

"And what of Sakura?" Shizune asked

"The last thing she said on the walkie talkie was that Dirsky was dead and that Rain had given away there position" Shikamaru placed his head in his hands and sagged out of exhaustion.

"Then they are dead?" Shizune asked.

"Yes, Jin and Dirsky are but Rain and Sakura I'm not sure about ." Shikamaru mumbled through his hands not bothering to look up. He was too ashamed of having another failed mission on his name....and to have so many lost.

"But why would they bring you here?" Tsunade asked.

"I don't know...they should have killed me-" He suddenly looked up as if realizing something "-...unless" Shizune looked at him

"Unless what?" She asked begging for an answer.

"Unless Sakura did something." He spoke slowly and evenly.

"It wouldn't surprise me, she will go to hell and back to protect her teamates." Tsunade said matter-of-factly.

"So you think Sakura got you back here?" Shizune asked.

"Possibly....but how I don't know. I mean who else but Sakura could find a way to get us back in one piece?" Shikamaru spoke finding his head clearing a little. Tsunade sighed.

"But at what cost?" Tsunade whisped. A long pause passed through all of them. They all knew the terrors of the Akatsuki and they never took prisoners. Would Sakura have offered information to save thier lives? No. Shikamaru knew she wouldn't she would die before that happened....so the question was, what did she offer that made the Akatsuki so willing to let them go?

Tsunade looked up at Shikamaru, looking more determined than ever.

"Alright, tell me everything"

Sakura woke slowly. She opened her eyes to see the room she was supposedly staying in. She sat up and could feel the pain swelling in her face. She placed a hand against her face and was going to heal it but stopped when she felt a presence in the room. She looked around quickly and saw a shadow leaning against the wall. The figure seemed to notice her notice him and walked towards her.

"You're awake" Itachi said.

"Thankyou for the obvious?" She hissed not really caring that Itachi could proberly break her with his pinky right now.

"He doesn't trust you. But He'll allow you to stay as long as you don't break the rules." Itachi said ignoring her last juvenile comment.

'Great' She thought sarcasticly.

"You should heal yourself." He said as he turned and walked towards the door.

"Whatever" Sakura muttered as he left trying to sound nonchalant. When she was sure he was gone she placed her hand on her jaw and began to heal it.

The door opened and Machi came in. Sakura smiled at her.

"Hello Machi" She said.

"Hello Sakura-sama" Machi said as she gave Sakura her plate of food. Sakura ate the food slowly. Her mouth was still sore that it hurt to chew. 'What a pain'

"So how long have I been asleep?" Sakura asked inbetween bites.

"About a day in a half Sakura-sama" Machi said politely.

"Wow. That long huh?" Sakura said as she ate.

"Yes"

They sat in silence for a while as Sakura ate. But Sakura didn't pressure Machi for conversation. She knew that if she wanted to speak she would and Sakura was so exhausted that she couldn't even think of something to say. So it worked out for the best. When Sakura had finished, Machi picked the plate up and began to walked towards the door.

"Your leaving?" Sakura asked. Machi stopped immediatly and turned.

"Hai. Itachi-sama said you needed your rest." She said with a smile.

'Grhhh Itachi' She thought childishly."Oh but you can stay" Sakura said. She really missed spending time wth people who weren't emotionally drained sociopaths who liked to torture little kids.

"I'm sorry but I also have to go help my little sister. She needs my help in the kitchen. Forgive me" Machi said as she bowed her head.

"Oh ok." Sakura said sadly but understood. Machi left quickly. Sakura sighed and fell against the bed.

"Its so boring here" Sakura thought to herself. She glared at the wall as if it had insulted her. 'Maybe this is how they kill they're intruders. By forcing them in a room with the ugliest wall paint ever and making them want to kill themselves out of sheer boredom.'

She looked around the room slowly but when she glance at the door she noticed something. The door was still slightly ajar. She sat up quickly.

'Machi must have forgot' Sakura thought as she walked towards it and immediatly concealed her chakra. She opened it slightly and peaked through. She couldn't sense any chakra.

'No one's there.' She thought as she walked through the doorway slowly. She looked around. There were four doors in the hallway and then a and then a turn at the end of the hall. She tried to remember how Itachi brought her in.

'I can't remeber which door I went through.... Think Sakura Think!' She walked towards the one on the left quietly. She pressed her ear against it.

"But she is a medic-nin. And if you remember you completly killed all of our other medic-nin."

"Well how was I suppose to know that one little punch would kill the guy?"

"You must learn control Kisame-san.."

'Kisame' Sakura thought as she backed away from the door. Her eyes were wide.

'I've got to get out of here!' She panicked as she ran to the other door. But then she felt a presence of someone coming down the hall.

'Shit'

Deidara looked at the hostages door. It was open. He looked around but found noone.

"Where are you girl? Yeah" He said aloud not knowing she was right above him. At the last minute Sakura had jumped to the ceiling and used chakra to keep her there. Kisame possibly hearing Deidara came out of the room he had previously been in.

"What is it Deidara?" He asked not really looking like he cared as he lifted his sword onto his shoulder.

"It seems the girl escaped. Yeah" Deidara said as he looked thoroughly into her room.

"Should we call Itachi?" Kisame asked still standing out in the hallway.

Sakura felt the sweat dripping from her her forehead and could only pray it wouldn't drop as she held tightly to the walls.

As Deidara walked back into the halls and shut her door. He seemed to suddenlt realize somtheing and smirked.

"No, I've already found her" Deidara said as he pointed up at Sakura.

'Damn' She jumped and forced chakra into her foot and kicked Kisame in the shoulder and knocked him towards Deidara, making Kisame fall on top of him.

"That Bitch!"

"Get the hell off, Yeah!"

Sakura ignored they're yelling and ran towards another door and opened it only to see a man with an orange mask that swirled around one at eye looking down at her.

"Dammit!!" She shouted in frustration as she turned but man grabbed her arm. She spun around and punched him in the face with her chakra inputted fist. He quickly let go fell back clutching his mask. Sakura turned and ran back towards Kisame and Deidara. They had seemed to gotten off eachother and were glaring at the other. Deidara noticed her first.

"Oh look she is coming back. Yeah" Deidara said.

"Good cause I'm gonna kill her." Kisame shouted as he grinned toothily at her. He raised his sword onto his back. Sakura put chakra in her feet and jumped above them. Kisame swiftly grabbed her ankle and slammed her into the floor. The tile broke into pieces around her 'I'm gonna feel that in the morning' She thought as she slowly got up. Right when she looked up Kisame's fist came at her. His fist connected with her stomach and she flew back and slammed into the wall.

"AH!" She shouted in pain. She fell to her knees and coughed up blood.

"Hey you didn't kill the medic this time. Yeah" Deidara said. Tobi walked up to Deidara.

"She's stronger then the usual ones." The man with the mask said. Kisame walked towards Sakura tauntingly. Sakura staggered as she stood. Her body was wearing out quit.

'He's too strong' She thought as she wiped the blood away from her lip. He started to run towards her. She pushed chakra again into her feet and jumped over him quickly. He turned but Sakura for once apprehended him, she punched him in the gut with a fist full of chakra. He hit the wall and the building shook.

"She knows how to use her chakra" The masked man whispered. Kisame looked up at Sakura and breathed heavily. She barely had any chakra left. She knew now that she didn't have enough for an escape.

"It seems the little girl is better then you Kisame. yeah." Deidara called out to him, trying to get the better of him.

"Shutup!" Kisame shouted as he pulled out his sword. The masked man turned to Deidara whispered.

"This is quite amusing"

Sakura's eyes widened when Kisame pointed his sword towards her.

'Great well now I'm definatly gonna die' She thought as she prepeared herself for the blow. But suddenly all she could see was the Akatsuki cloak and black hair. She looked up at the man that stood in her way.

'Itachi'

"Kisame stop. I thought we agread you wouldn't kill her" Itachi said but seemed to be completely unconcerned. Kisame looked almost ashamed.

"Ya I know. But you better watch her cause next time I will kill her." Kisame said threateningly as he put his sword up.

"I haven't seen Kisame get hit in a long time." The masked man said.

"It must have wounded his pride. Yeah" Deidara snicked. Itachi turned and looked at Sakura. Even if if was the king of apathy. She knew someone about to blow up when she saw it. And Itachi was anything but happy.

"I told you to stay in your room" Itachi said. Sakura remained silent. He grabbed her arm roughly and pushed her back into her room. She fell to the floor barely catching her fall.

"If you try to escape again I won't stop Kisame from killing you next time." He said as he slammed the door. Sakura looked back around her cage and sighed.

'Well....that went....well?'
