He looked down at her with his eyes narrowed in sorrow. The next step was to seal her body. He dipped his hand in the tragic cocktail that he had caused. He used it as his ink as he drew symbols on her pelvis and hips. When he was done he looked down at her, fully tempted not to go through with it. Yet, the thought of the old hag finding out…
"Forgive me, Sakura-chan…" he whispered as he formed the several hand signs and placed his hand on her body where the marks met.
She shot her eyes open. She arched her back as she dug her fingers into the bed. He screams filled the air with those that sounded inhuman. Tears rolled down his face as he forced himself to continue. When the seal took she fell unconscious once more. Her breathing was heavy. He looked down at her pelvis. The design of the seal was meant to look like a tattoo. It was his duty to choose the shape it took. For her he had chosen the only thing that suited her. The one true symbol for strength, beauty and love; the very symbol for which she was named.
She sat on the windowsill looking out at the sunrise. Her eyes had lost their girlish shine. Next to her was the tray of food her Sensei had brought her, which had remained untouched. A soft breeze blow past her and tugged at her hair. In her hand were the rags that had once been her mother's precious furisode.
Below her were the sounds of a normal morning in her village. People heading off to work. A ninja or two running to some unknown task. Children playing. She gripped the rags in her hand. She would never be able to be like them. She could never be a wife, never be a mother…
Kakashi wrapped his arms around her. "Sakura-chan, please, I beg you eat something…"
She ignored him. She continued to watch the people she was now so distant from.
There was a knock at his door and the unmistakable sound of Naruto's voice. Kakashi allowed him to come in after a kind greeting. Naruto immediately recognized the one his heart longed for. He ran to her with his dopy smile. "Sakura-chan! What are you doing here so early?" he asked.
She didn't look at him. She was focused on the small child that clung to his mother's hand as they passed by. He was smiling happily up at his mother and she down at him. She closed her eyes as a tear rolled down her face.
"Sakura-chan! Sakura-chan what's wrong?" Naruto asked turning her around to face him. She opened her eyes and he felt anger boil inside him. This was not the Sakura he had grown up with. This was not the girl he had come to love. He turned to Kakashi who merely sat in his chair sipping tea through his mask.
"What's wrong with her?" he asked trying to contain his anger.
"She was sent on a secret mission by the Elders." He replied with a sip of his tea. "Don't bother asking her about it, it's highly classified."
Naruto threw the tray at the wall. "I don't care if it's classified! She's not herself!" he yelled angrily his eyes turning red.
He felt the familiar arms wrap around his neck. The cream color gently gripped his shirt. "Naruto-kun…calm down." She whispered in his ear with a voice that was so sweet he thought he would melt. He was able to calm down as he placed on hand on her arm.
"Tell me…" he asked in a voice filled with sadness. "Will the Sakura-chan I know…ever come back?"
She shook her head on his back and buried her face there. He was so warm to her. So kind and caring. She took a deep breath and smelled beef ramen. She smiled at his choice for breakfast. A tear rolled down her cheek. "I fear that Sakura-chan…died on that mission."
She once again stood before the Village Elders. The old hag had stepped forward and stood in front of her. Sakura had been told to undress. She had been reluctant to but ultimately gave in. Kakashi looked away from her. He didn't want to see that mark again. The hag seemed pleased when she saw the mark yet, she reached her hand between the young woman's legs and inserted her fingers. Sakura gritted her teeth. The hag had not bothered to remove her rings before she had begun her inquiry. When she pulled them out she smiled. "Very good my dear. Tell me, did he use your other entrances as well?" she asked walking around her and scanning every part of her body.
"I'm afraid…" Kakashi began before he was cut off by the witch.
"I speak to her not you! Have you forgotten your place Hatake-san?" she snapped at him. She watched as he lowered his head and smiled at his respect. She turned back to Sakura. "Tell me, did he use your other entrances as well?"
Sakura kept her eyes below that of the hag's as a sign of respect. "N-No." she whispered. She could tell by the wrinkles in the old woman's face that she was greatly displeased. Sakura felt pain on her cheek all of a sudden. She felt the world whirling around her before she hit what she believed was the ground with a painful force.
Kakashi start for her when the hag turned to him with the same punishment. Though he did not fall he felt the sting of her hand. "It was your duty to teach her! You have failed this mission!" she scolded.
"She's too young! Just using her main entrance had taken so much from her!" he said trying to convince the old bitch that he was think more for the wellbeing of his seito.
The hag turned to the boney bastard who simply nodded. She turned back to Kakashi. "From here on she is no longer your concern. She is no longer part of your squad."
Kakashi's eyes grew wide with this decision. Anger took place of his calm composure. "You can't do that! With out myself and Naruto she'll…" he was silenced with another slap.
"Leave now! You've dishonored yourself enough for one day!" she said as she turned to Sakura who had already stood back up. She gripped a handful of his seito's beautiful pink hair. "You're already posing a problem for us! No matter, we'll brake of that soon enough." She yanked hard on the poor seito who let out a whimper of pain.
Kakashi ran to her aid when two Anbu Black Op members jumped between him and his seito. He quickly defeated them, having been a member of the Black Ops when he was younger. "Sakura-chan!" he yelled as more Anbu attacked him. He was out numbered. He moved the headband from his eyes releasing his Sharingon. He fought them but they were landing critical blows. Kakashi felt weaker the more he fought them. He figured he had been poisoned. "Damn!" he uttered as he feel to his knees.
"Kakashi-sensei!" Sakura screamed when she saw one of them with a raised sword above him. Sakura broke free and ran at the Anbu member. She threw herself on her sensei. "Please! Spare him! I'll do what ever you want just don't kill him!" he looked up at her.
"Sa-Sakura-chan, don't…" he said with a weak voice.
She looked at him with sorrowful eyes. "I-I can't lose anyone else." A smile formed on her face when the hag motioned for the Anbu to back off.
"Let's go my dear!" the hag beckoned to her.
Sakura turned to her dear teacher. She could never look at him the same after what he had done, but she was able to forgive him because now she understood the hostel nature of the Elders. She stood up and looked back one last time at him. "I forgive you." With that, she was taken into the darkness and off to a fate he had hopped she would never know.
She was given a new furisode that she was told to put on. It was a dark blue with many koi fish on it. White lines represented the movement of the water. The room was quite small. There was a simple couch and a table that had a set of tea cups. It didn't take too long before the hag came back with two others.
"Sakura-chan, what are you doing here?" Shikamaru asked looking at her oddly. Next to him was Neji whom seemed shocked to see her there. The three of them turned to the old hag who smiled crudely.
"What is the meaning of this? Sakura-chan is not a Jonin how can she accompany us on a Jonin mission?" Neji asked.
"Sakura-chan is your mission. It your duty to train her to be a Kunoichi, where her Sensei had failed."
Shikamaru stepped forward with concern. "This is not something I'm willing to do! She's our friend…"
"Do as you're told! You're duty is to Konoha and not your friends!" she yelled. She moved to Sakura and grabbed a handful of her hair and threw her to the men's feet. The kimono was falling from her shoulders. "You are to use any entrance to her you wish. If she fights or resists, don't hesitate to do what you need to in order to complete this mission." She looked to the pathetic woman who was once Sakura. "You have two days!" she turned to the two men. "If you fail this mission not only will I strip you of your rank as a Jonin but that of everyone with in your clans. Such highly respected clans you are from, it would be such a disgrace to be rid of them." she said walking out and locking the door behind her.
Shikamaru tried to help Sakura to her feet, unknowingly gripping her by the wounds on her wrist that Kakashi had given her the night before. She whenced at the pain. He turned to Neji who gave him a look of worry. What had she been through? They unwrapped her wounds so they could place new bandages on them. The raw red skin and the small amounts of blood that resided on her proved to them that she had fought.
"Sakura-chan, what's going on? What did they do to you?" Neji asked. He was extremely worried about her. It had not been too long since she came to stay at his uncle's home. Hinata had invited her after her parents had passed. For two years she stayed there afraid to be alone. She became the maid of the house of her own will, saying it was to repay their kindness. In that time she had become Hinata's best friend. It was only recently that she returned to her own house.
She smiled a smile he knew well. She had done it once when Hanabi burned her arm accidentally. Sakura was not upset at her as she begged Sakura for forgiveness. Sakura only smiled that same smile and said it was her fault, just as she had done now. Neji slammed his fist on the table. Sakura turned his way wondering what was wrong with him. "This isn't right! They can't do this to us!" he yelled.
"What a drag." Shikamaru said as he sat on the couch far from Sakura. He couldn't think of much to do about the present situation. What he had been asked to do was far from his character. Besides that, Ino was one of his closest friends and Sakura was one of Ino's. He sighed as he tilt his head to the side trying to think.
"What are we going to do?" Neji asked clearly unable to think of something himself.
"Simple," Shikamaru began. "We wait out the two days. Perhaps this is simply a test; for all we know this could be a double of Sakura-chan. In addition, is she is Sakura-chan, she would never stoop so low as to do this kind of thing." He turned to her. "Am I right?"
She smiled sadly. "The Sakura-chan I was before would never have but, she's dead now." She looked to them who listened closely to what she had to say, wanting her to explain more. "I was asked to do this, if I didn't, Hinata-chan would have been forced to."
Neji flipped the table in anger. They would dare go as far as to defile the Hyuuga name by forcing this upon Lady Hinata. He turned to Sakura who seemed to know exactly what he was thinking. "I thought the same Neji-senpai. Better me then a high member of the main branch of the Hyuuga clan." She said with her sweet smile. He looked at her wide eyed for she did indeed read his mind. "But that's not why I agreed to do it." He looked at her with confusion, not able to grasp why she had done it. "I did it to protect my friend. Just as I'm going to do again." She stood up and walked to the small kitchen area she had failed to notice before. She took out some Sake and poured it in the tea cups.
"Sakura-chan what do you mean?" Shikamaru asked the first time in his life he truly had no answer to.
"I won't let you or your clans pay for my failure. This is all because I failed my first mission." She tilt her head to the side. A bright smile on her lips. "That's why I won't fight you."
Shikamaru shook his head fiercely. "No way, I don't even understand what you mean!"
Neji's eyes lit up brightly. "Sa-Sakura-chan…have you been made a woman?" he asked practically yelling the question at her. Shikamaru shot a look to Neji then back to her. The expression on her face told them that Neji was right. He gripped the cup in his hand. "Who…Who was it?" he asked through gritted teeth.
"I am forbidden to say." She whispered.
Shikamaru stood up and sat on the couch. "I'm going to ride this out." He said folding his arms. "I refuse to do such a thing, even for the sake of my clan."
Neji was unsure. It was his duty as a member of the branch family to protect the whole family. He didn't want to but it seemed he had no choice but to. They had cleverly locked him on the path of their choice.
"Shikamaru-senpai, she means fully what she says. That woman nearly killed Kakashi-sensei." She said with a look of concern.
Shikamaru face changed then. If this was true then…he covered his face with frustration. It was a clever trap. No way out, no loop hole, nothing. He looked to Sakura who had already set her mind to protect them and their clans. As Ino had once told him, Sakura never changed her mind once she was set on something. "Are you truly sure you want this?" he asked.
"I don't want this," she said in a whisper. "But I have no choice." She looked to Neji who reluctantly nodded his head. She then turned to Shikamaru who repeated the motion. She lowered her head. "Then let it be done."
They sat in silence for a few moments before Neji made the first move. He sat by Sakura. With shaking hands, he moved to her breasts. He gently grasped them out side the kimono. Sakura's face began to turn red. He gently squeezed them and Sakura let out a soft moan. A warm sensation ran through him and Shikamaru. Neji sat Indian style and pulled Sakura on his lap. He used one hand to open the furisode and expose her soft breasts. He began to rub his finger over her erect nipple. This mad another sound come out of her, once more the feeling shot through the two men. Neji used his free hand and slid it between her legs. His finger playing with her clitoris. She held her hand over her mouth trying not to moan again.
Unable to take it any longer, Shikamaru moved to her as well. He moved her hand from her mouth and started with a passionate kiss. He then gripped her other breast that Neji was neglecting and traced her nipple with his tongue. She turned her head to the side not wanting them to see her face. The pressure began to build in the lower regions of the two male Shinobi. Each wanting release and knew that this female Kunoichi could provide it.
Shikamaru undid his pants and threw them into some unknown corner of the room. He turned her face to his arched length. She slowly accepted it as he slid it in her mouth. He laced his fingers in her hair moving it back and forth. He closed his eyes in the pure ecstasy of the moment. Her mouth felt so warm and wet, the perfect home for his throbbing cock. After she had gotten use to his length, she began to move her tongue along his penile. He threw his head back with the feeling of her tongue. He moaned with pleasure.
She could feel the bulge in Neji's pants. He moved her to a position so that he didn't disturb her and Shikamaru as he removed his pants. Sakura rested on all fours her mouth still pleasuring Shikamaru. Neji threw her kimono skirt up and looked at her womanhood. He was surprised at how beautiful the color of her body was. He positioned himself. He slowly slid his length inside her. She bucked her hips at the foreign invader. He was far kinder then her sensei was. He allowed her to get use to his length. Once he felt her loosen up around his cock he slowly began to thrust. Her moans only made them grow more aggressive.
Both of them felt shame in what they were doing but, as much as they hated to admit it, as much as it dug at their hearts, she felt so good. Her body was soft like that of a cherry blossom's petals, the scent she gave of smelled of them and her body was producing so much heat it felt as if she had become the sun it's self.
Instantly Naruto came to their minds. How he loved her, worshiped her as if she were the only woman in the world. They remembered his fond words when ever he spoke of her. How in secret he cursed the name of the one who caused her so much pain. How proud he was when she became Lady Tsunade's apprentice. Never have they seen the fool with so much passion even more so then his dream of being Hokage.
Neji pulled out of her. His member dripping with her juices. "Sakura-chan," he said softly. "Brace yourself, I'm going to…" he watched as he saw her fingers dig into the hardwood floor. He looked away in shame yet, he still positioned himself.
Shikamaru kept thrusting in her warm wet mouth. He never felt so ashamed before in his life. He wanted to end it but knew she would find away to complete the mission she was given. It wouldn't before the sake of the mission but for the sake of his clan's honor. It was just the kind of person she was, others held far higher then her self.
Sakura could feel the hate swelling inside her. The hate was not meant for them. It was meant for the old hag and her bony bastard.
She could taste Shikamaru's pre-cum, indicating he was almost done. She fought back the tears. Shikamaru began to pick up his pace. He wanted to end it. He wanted to stop this horrifying task as quickly as he could. He could feel it. He could feel the pressure building. He shut his eyes tightly and gripped her hair. "S-Sakura-chan, I'm about to…" he wasn't able to finish as his seed spilled into her. She tried to swallow as much as she could but much of the bitter white liquid fell from her chin. Shikamaru pulled out before falling to his knees in front of her. "Forgive me," he said as the tears ran down his cheeks.
She hugged him. Her exposed breast touching his bare chest. "It's not your fault." She whispered.
She turned to Neji who was flushed with shame. She smiled at him, a tear running down her cheek. "Let's finish you off, okay?" she said, her voice cracking with the knowledge of the pain to come. She stood up, her legs shaking, barely able to support her weight. She leaned over the arm of the couch and beckoned Neji to come. He could by her eyes it was the last thing she truly wanted.
He stood up and walked to her. His hard cock throbbing and filled with pressure. He moved to the small opening. She narrowed her eyes as she nodded. He slowly opened her. Sliding in at a slow pace. He could hear her pain filled moans as she tightened her walls around him. He figure it was much like a Band-Aid. If you go slow it hurts more, so, he decided to thrust fast and hard in one blow. The pain filled her entire body. She screamed from it. A scream they had never heard before come from a human. Neji felt her body trembling. He regretted what he had done and began to pull out. She placed her hand on his. "D-Don't…" she whimpered. "F-finish…the-the mission…" her hold on his hand tightened. He closed his eyes in frustration and anger as he slowly trusted in her tight body.
She didn't scream anymore. Neji knew she was fighting it. Only letting out the moans she could not stop. He felt the pressure built. He hadn't trusted very long before he felt to his braking point. It was to be expected of a place so tight. "Sakura-chan, I'm about to cum…" he whispered. She didn't respond to him. He guessed as precaution incase a scream were to slip by her lips. He dug is fingers in her hip as he released his load inside her. He looked down at her, his body heaving trying to capture the air around him. She was gripping the cushion of the couch so tightly her hands had turned white. He slowly pulled out and looked at what he had done. His seed leaked from her body as well as a large amount of blood.
He stepped back in shock as she tried to stand up. Her kimono skirt slid back into place coving the blood. When she was up she released her hold on the arm rest. It was a bad idea because she fell to the hard wood floor with a loud thud. Shikamaru ran to her side. Her eyes were fluttering uncontrollably. She was breathing rapidly and her heart was beating so fast it was skipping beats. He shot to Neji, a look of worry embedded on his face. "She's going into shock…" he whispered.
Neji stared down at her. It was his fault. If he had just pulled out like he had wanted too. He covered his ears and fell to his knees. 'It's my fault…my fault…my…all my….fault…' he thought.
"D-Don't…N-Neji-sen-senpai….no-not your…not you…." She said through her gasping breaths.
He looked up at her. They had to something. Her face was turning white. He stood up and began to bang on the iron door. "We did what you wanted!" he yelled. "Now get your ass in here and help her!"
The hag opened the door and looked down at the pitiful sight that had once been called Sakura. "Disgusting." She said harshly. "Couldn't have cleaned this trash up before calling me?" she asked looking the shock in the two men's faces. Shock soon replaced anger as the old hag picked up Sakura by her soft pink hair to examine her. "Can't even take a mere boy's pleasuring. Practically useless." She said dropping her head to the floor. The hag turned to Shikamaru, her eyes seemed to smile at the delight of tormenting the young woman. "Carry her to Konoha hospital." She ordered.
Shikamaru nodded and ran down the hall. He had already replaced his pants after he had finished with his task. He looked down at her face. She was far too pale. He stopped and coved her breast with the kimono she wore. He coddled her like an infant as he ran into the burning sunlight, rushing to help her. His tears falling the whole way.
