ALAS~ I bring forth chapter 1!

Disclaimer: Sadly, I do not own Naruto. Though, that's probably good since I'm sure it's a huge responsibility… and I personally wouldn't like to receive all the metaphoric hate mail that everyone claims to send Mr. Kishimoto. All those death threats? No thank you. So I will settle for sitting here-in my room- typing up this wonderful story [cough].

Chapter 1:

It was like any other day for the young kunoichi. With the exception that Sakura had been assigned a mission that she was to go on tomorrow, along with one of her close friends, Hinata. They were to go to the hidden mist village and escort a couple of men to an important…business type of-party thing. Yeah… Basically, they were there for show, and to make the men look good in front of their colleagues… Oh, the nerve of some guys! Sakura had been rather annoyed when she was informed of their assignment, but what could she really do? Nothing. She could do nothing. It was just how these kinds of things went. So she made plans to go shopping later that afternoon with Hinata and pick out some really cute accessories!

…What? They were girls too after all! Might as well try and have fun.

Sakura's day went according to her usual schedule. She spent the majority of it working her shift at the hospital, but Tsunade had let her out early so that she had a little time for herself before departing in the morning. It was quite generous, and really appreciated.

So, she did just that. She used the afternoon to do just as her and Hinata had planned; and they went all over town doing what girls do best. They shopped! They had been given a budget to work with and definitely used it to their advantage. They were able to buy some absolutely gorgeous evening gowns and shoes! It wasn't every day they were able to dress up like this, so she absolutely relished in the idea of being able to do so. And she had to admit, the two of them looked amazing in their selected dresses…

Next on their list was to purchase wigs. Yes, wigs. They were to play the part, the whole nine yards. They weren't to be recognized. And especially Sakura, with her pink head of hair, would be very recognizable.

"How about this one?" Sakura asked as she placed on a wig and made a comical face. It was dark green with long side bangs and a short cut in the back.

Hinata scrunched her face slightly and shook her head.

Sakura pursed her lips... contemplating. "Hmm.." She then picked up another one. It was dark blue and had a long side ponytail with elegant curls. "Aaand…this one?" She asked, pointing at it with her fingers.

Hinata stared at her for a moment as she really seemed to consider it, but ended up just shaking her head in protest.

Sakura huffed and placed the dang thing back in its original holder before folding her arms across her chest. "Well what would you suggest then?" She asked, clearly frustrated. They had already found a nice wig for Hinata. It was almost bleach blonde in color and had long flowing curls. It really brought out the lightness of Hinata's eyes…it was simply just stunning on her. Sakura however…well, she just couldn't pick one!

Hinata looked thoughtfully at the selection and eventually her eyes focused on one in particular. She didn't know why she hadn't seen it before! Carefully she picked it up and handed it to Sakura.

"I think this one is perfect for you!" She smiled brightly. Sakura raised a thin eyebrow and put on the head of hair. She looked in one of the mirrors and smiled. It was jet black and completely straight. The length of it just barely hung past her chest, and had a razor cut bang that went straight across. It looked wonderful! And apparently Hinata agreed because she wouldn't stop smiling.

Sakura bought the wig and the two of them continued onward. Everything was running smoothly and according to plan. The two of them had gotten dinner and talked-which they rarely were ever able to do. I mean, yes, they saw each other quite often… but it was almost always strictly business. Sakura couldn't remember the last time the two of them were able to sit down and just…talk. It was something that people took for granted. But when you live the life of a shinobi… it just wasn't something you had the chance to do. Well, needless to say, they had lost track of time and it had gotten late; later than anticipated.

The two girls stepped outside of the restaurant and took notice of the street lights that were now on. Oops! Well, it was worth it at least. But it was time they headed back. And they did…

It was rather quiet though… and it was a weeknight; so most people were already asleep in their homes knowing they would have their own jobs to attend in the morning. And most of the people who were still out and about were kinda… drunk. Ugh. What a pain.

They continued some small chit chat that had them all giggly, but when Sakura said something that she thought was particularly funny, And Hinata looked around frowning, Sakura raised an eyebrow and looked at her with an expression of total confusion… "What's up with you?" She asked simply.

Hinata shook her head and discretely continued to check her surroundings. "S-something's wrong…" She answered quietly and tried to relax.

She figured maybe she was just being paranoid…It was understandable that she would be reacting this way, Sakura now felt it too… She knew it was cliché, but it was quite empty on the streets…and it was dark… and you just expect trouble under these circumstances. They tried not to worry any further though. They were ninja, and were fully capable of defending themselves.

A little more time went by, and the uneasy feeling had not yet disappeared; which usually wasn't good. Some call it a woman's tuition, but call it what you will… it did not feel good. Hinata stopped dead in her tracks and turned slightly.

"Byakugan…" She whispered. After a moment, Hinata frowned deeply and continued on as normal, acting as though nothing was out of the ordinary.

Sakura knew better and caught on immediately. "What is it, Hinata?" She asked, appearing casual.

"There are four men following us…" she answered so quietly that she was barely audible.

Sakura frowned and continued to look ahead. Fantastic… and there was nobody around. Well, she figured they were just some average men… hopefully they'd get out of this easy enough. They didn't want to hurt the poor guys though. It wouldn't be a fair battle. They were ninja! And besides, they probably drunk; so they most likely didn't know what they were doing.

There was a long- a very long- silent pause until a male voice suddenly spoke up. Actually, there was even a whistle in there.

"What are you lovely women doing out late at a time like this?" The man asked smoothly.

Sakura and Hinata turned to face the voice and were met with two men standing behind them. They had this… air about them. The way they were standing… they seemed… arrogant. This annoyed Sakura, and apparently it was clear on her face because the guys started to laugh amongst themselves. Oh yes, so funny… this was just such a party! A wonderful time! She caught the other man smirking and looking her over, and she clenched her fist at her side. It was easy to say that it was kinda pissing her off.

They instantly felt the presence of the other two men behind them now. Hinata turned to look behind and saw one of the guys smirking at her as well. She blushed faintly and quickly turned back around, looking to Sakura and then at the two before them again.

"L-look… we really don't want any trouble…" She said softly, making brief eye contact with theses strangers.

"Oh, I know you don't." One of them said as he took a step forward, then another.

Sakura noticed he was taking his time walking toward Hinata, probably trying to intimidate her, and stepped in front of her, frowning.

"Hey, she said we don't want any trouble." She said a bit more harshly then intended.

The man chuckled and looked behind him at his partner, obviously amused… He looked at Sakura again, a glint in his eye, and without warning the two of them darted directly at her. Sakura immediately went on the defensive and raised her hands to fight back. And she would have had them too! Except that she heard an abrupt cry from behind her. Sakura quickly turned around and was greeted with the site of the other two men, one of them holding Hinata. One of their hands was covering her mouth while another held a kunai to her throat. It was enough of a shock to catch her off guard that it allowed the other two to get hold of her as well. She cried out in frustration as she was held in the same manner as Hinata.

A man stepped forward, clearly the 'leader' of the guys, grinning mischievously.

"If either one of you make a move, then the other will… get hurt." He said, nearing Sakura and leaning his face in so it was merely inches from her own.

"Understand?" He asked, receiving only a glare from her, but nothing else. He nodded towards his men in a gesture to get moving. They clearly, for whatever reason, were unable to stay here where they were…

She felt her mouth released but immediately felt the pressure of a kunai placed near her lower back instead, followed by a rough hand on her shoulder, pushing her forward. She stumbled but reluctantly obeyed. Sakura soon noticed Hinata join her by her side, being held the same way.

Hinata met her gaze and looked at her...worried. Nothing good could come out of this. She was shoved forward a bit and gasped lightly, turning her attention ahead…

"…." Kiba looked at Hinata incredulously.

"Hinata….what the hell are you talking about?" he was looking at her in a different way. He seemed genuinely concerned.

Hinata clumsily stood to her feet and noticed a cool breeze sweep across her chest. She looked down and saw her jacket completely unzipped. Hinata choked back some kind of noise and quickly moved her hands to zip herself up. Her face was tinted red and she bit her lip. It had a metallic taste to it…

Kiba quickly looked away from her chest and instead focused on her face. "…Hinata?"

"S-Sakura w-was taken away…we need to inform someone!" She said nervously, looking around as though there were people all over.

Kiba frowned and quickly hopped onto was clear that Hinata's mind was elsewhere, and he wasn't going to get any clear information from her by staying here.

"Come on, I'll give you a ride. Explain to me what happened on the way…" He said seriously.

Hinata hesitated, but nodded as she quickly joined him, making their way to the Hokage.

Sakura had started to run plans through her head, but having Hinata here made things so much more difficult… If she made any sort of attack, they'd hurt Hinata! And she just couldn't bring herself to be responsible for that. No way! She started to recognize where they were headed at this point, and she felt a little twist in her stomach. They were leading them out of the village…

Unnoticed by the girls, there was a silent exchange of looks between the two men behind them, and practically in sync, they forcefully looped their arms beneath the girl's and held them closely to their chests in a firm and painful lock. This of course earned cries from the poor girls, along with a frustrated groan from Sakura.

"What the hell! Let us go!" Sakura demanded as she began to struggle in his grasp.

As if to put her in her place, then man lifted his kunai to once again to her throat, stilling her movements immediately. Again, another soft cry from the pink headed female.

Hinata was so nervous, and incredibly uncomfortable. She did not handle such confrontation very well… not that she was ever really faced with it. She looked at the kunai that was being held to her friend's throat and swallowed loudly.

"Hmm.." The one man- the leader- spoke up, looking back and forth between the two women held captive before him, clearly taking his time doing so…

"Which one of you is going first?" he asked, a smirk forming across his lips.

Sakura and Hinata both stared at the man, perplexed and anxious. "What are you-" Sakura began to ask but was instantly interrupted by the man beside her.

"I say this one first!" He laughed and pulled Hinata closer to him, earning a soft cry. It killed her arms when he did that. It burned. She could feel him breathing on her neck, and shuddered at the sensation.

Another man seemed to agree since he let out a booming laugh of his own as he approached them.

"Yeah! She's got bigger tits than pinky!" He laughed, leaning in his face towards Hinata, who reddened deeply. She tried to move her face out of the way, but the man gripped her jaw and guided her gaze back to his.

Sakura's eyes widened and she looked worryingly at the guy in front of her. She hoped to God this isn't what he was referring to in his question. The man's eyes then met hers and lingered there for a long moment, his face emotionless. Sakura was silently pleading with him, her eyes desperate.

After what felt like forever, he smirked and let out a long drawn out sigh before looking at the man holding Hinata.

"Bring her here." He said with such a quiet…venomous… voice.

"No!" Sakura yelled as the men obeyed and brought forth her friend.

"Hinata! No!" She yelled again.

No… she could not watch this. She couldn't! The situation was bad enough as is… but there was no freakin way she could stomach standing there and watch her friend being assaulted. It was embarrassing, it was cruel… it was vile.

The men laughed and forced Hinata-who was now squirming and struggling- forward. The man behind her grabbed a fistful of her hair, further stretching her arms, and pulled her head to the side as he began to ravish her neck in kisses. Hinata cried out and tried to move away. The other man knelt before her and began to slowly run his hands along her waist causing her to flinch even more.

"P-please don't…" She asked desperately, eyes beginning to well up. She was scared, confused, and overall disgusted.

Hinata had never been with a guy intimately before, and especially had never been touched in this way. She did not like the feeling that these men were giving her…. They were foreign…and awkward.

The man laughed mockingly. "Don't do what, babe?" He asked in a feigned innocence before extending a hand upward and grabbing hold of the tiny zipper to her jacket. He began to pull it down torturously slow, never letting his eyes wander from her face.

"Don't do this?" He asked, suddenly sliding the zipper all the way down in one fluid motion, thus revealing her full breasts. They were beneath fishnet of course, but there was little left to the imagination.

Cold air immediately rushed to her chest and Hinata cried out in embarrassment. She urned her head away, unintentionally providing more access to the man suckling her neck, whom she felt nip at it lightly. Her face turned an even darker shade of red and she bit her lower lip.

The man laughed again and stood to his feet, once again staring at her face.

"Oho! Are you…embarrassed there, sweetheart?" he teased as he leaned forward, pressing himself into her, sandwiching her between the two. He took hold of her jaw again and used his other hand to start caressing her face and pushing her hair back, watching every expression on her facial features.

"Are you a… virgin?" He questioned, his smile growing wider when she averted her eyes.

"Huh. No kidding! What luck! Well, I'm going to show you what it feels like to be touched by a man, Okay?" He said proudly as he leaned his head in and pressed his lips to hers.

Hinata's eyes widened and she flinched as she felt his hands begin to fondle her breasts. A small noise escaped the back of her throat and she struggled beneath him. It didn't matter though, made it feel nicer for him.

Sakura clenched her teeth and quickly looked away from the sight displayed before her, only to find the leader to be watching her face the whole time. The…whole time. The sick bastard was enjoying this! She glared at him and looked away, squeezing her eyes shut. The fourth man, who had been just standing around approached her then.

"You're leaving her out!" He exclaimed to her captor. Sakura opened her eyes and looked up at the stranger standing before her now.

"Does this turn you on?" He asked as he gestured towards Hinata over his shoulder. Sakura glared daggers at him. He had a longer face and dark eyes… she just… she hated all of them so much right now. She looked away again, clearly wanting nothing to do with him.

The man chuckled and rolled his eyes before grabbing her jaw, maybe a bit rougher than intended. "Hey, I asked you a question."

She looked at him again, her resentment towards him clear as day. He seemed to have found this amusing because he stepped forward so that he was directly in front of her now, leaving little to no space between their bodies. Smiling, he reached out his hands and placed them on her ribs, just below her chest. This of course gave him her desired attention.

"Because you know what? It turns me on…" He moved his thumbs upwards as he brushed the under part of her chest, intentionally coming dangerously close to her nipples.

Sakura gasped and attempted to struggle again, but was once more instantly reminded of the dangerously close kunai jabbing dangerously at her throat. So badly she wanted to swipe the bastard's filthy hands away, but unfortunately couldn't due to the position her arms were being held in. Which, by the way, where hurting like a bitch right about now.

The man grinned evilly and allowed his thumbs to brush over the sensitive area of her chest, causing her cry out quietly and squirm the slightest bit, earning some kind of noise from the man behind her. She had almost forgotten about him…

"Do that to her again…" He ordered as Sakura felt him press his hips forward and against her rear.

She hissed but squirmed regardless when he did it to her again, earning a moan from behind her. 'Dammit!' This was horrible! Her attention was immediately sent towards Hinata again when she heard her cry out loudly.

She had apparently been punched in the stomach and now had the man's fist clenching a fistful of her hair. He threw her forcefully to the ground with a loud thud and was atop her in seconds, now pinning her wrists to the ground and kissing her again. Hinata tried her hardest to fight him off, but he was just too strong!

"Stop! Please stop! !" Sakura shrieked, again looking at the leader who was now making eye contact with her once more. She looked panicked, her eyes wide and glossy. It was just too much!

When it appeared that the man had not stopped his actions, Sakura cried out again.

"Please! Just… just…" She didn't know what to say… she was desperate! "I don't know! Just… take me instead!" Success.

The man hovering over Hinata stopped and turned his head to face her. And he wasn't the only one. Everyone was staring at her now…Hinata included.

The leader folded his arms and cocked his head to the side. He was curious now.

"What was that?" He raised a thick eyebrow and turned to face her.

Sakura looked around at all the eyes, hesitant now. She succeeded in making everyone stop… but at what cost? What did she just say? She met the eyes of Hinata's though, and this kindled a new boldness in her. Hinata… her eyes… she looked so desperate, so afraid…

"..I..I said…take me…instead." She answered quietly.

The leader stared at her for a long time…he seemed to be contemplating something.

"..Please.." Sakura whispered, looking him straight in the eyes.

He looked around and let his focus linger on the girl pinned to the ground.

Another burning gaze…

"Release her." He ordered simply, earning a shocked expression from the remaining men. And more specifically, the one who currently had a hold on Hinata.

"What the fuck!" –"I said release her!" The man stared him down for a long moment before begrudgingly standing to his feet.

Hinata remained on the ground heaving, trying to absorb what just happened. Tears leaked from the corners of her eyes as she tried to calm down.

The leader gave him another silent cue before looking to Sakura. "I have to say. This is definitely a first. I don't know whether to label it as bravery…. or stupidity." He said, smiling again.

"But, no matter." He gave some kind of hand gesture to the men nearest her and walked right past, continuing in the direction they were heading earlier… out of the village.

Sakura groaned as the man behind her finally released her arms from his painful hold, but never let up on the kunai. Giving her no time to let the blood flow back into them, he quickly pulled her arms behind her and tied them tightly, once again placing that wretched kunai to her lower back. Two of the men followed behind their leader, leaving Sakura's captor, and Hinata's attacker. She felt herself pushed forward, which she had learned by now was their way of telling her to start walking. So, she complied.

Hinata quickly sat up, groaning as she did so, and watched Sakura as she walked away. "Sakura!" She cried, clenching her fists. Reality was now sinking in…

Sakura turned her head and met her eyes with Hinata's, her expression sorrowful, before turning away and continuing on.

Tears finally escaped and ran down the Hyuuga's cheeks.

"Sakura!" She called out again, now trying to get to her knees so she could stand up.

The man quickly reacted and grabbed her head, slamming it to the ground. Hinata cried out and turned her head to watch Sakura walking further and further away… vision blurry. With one hand sign from the guy standing above her, Hinata's world went black as she drifted off into unconsciousness.

Kiba's knuckles had turned white from the pressure of clenching his fists together. He could hear Hinata now crying behind him, and decided it would be best to say nothing at all. There was just… this part of him that wanted to stop and console her… but he just couldn't. Not right now. It was best that they got to the Hokage as soon as possible so the situation could be handled…

He felt terrible though.

"I'm sorry…Hinata." He said quietly, and it remained silent the whole way back, save for Hinata's muffled cries.

Sakura looked up at the man, her wide eyes soon turning to slits. She recalled little of what happened after that whole ordeal in the village. The walk had, for the most part been silent. There were the occasional small conversations between a couple of the men… and she caught them looking back at her at times before they started laughing amongst themselves… but that was it. Last she remembered was that, at one point, the man holding her had pulled out some kind of cloth and tied it securely around her eyes. And the walk from then on had seemed to last forever. She couldn't see anything and was literally walking blindly. Next thing she knew she had taken a hit to the head…. And now here she was, in this cold, damp… and dark kind of room-thing, facing one of…them.

"You…" She said between clenched teeth.

The man chuckled and stepped forward again. "Yes…-"

"-..Don't!" She interrupted… "Just…don't." She said, clearly tired. She turned away and walked back to her original spot across the room, taking a seat and leaning her head back against the dirt wall.

The man closed the door and made his way towards her, awaiting her reaction.

Sakura opened her eyes, watching him carefully.

"Don't what?" he asked, flashing that stupid grin of his and just standing there, towering over her.

"Don't talk to me." She answered, looking down at the ground.

The man waited a long minute, focusing on her as she traced her finger absentmindedly through the dirt, pursing his lips slightly.

"He's pissed off you know…" He said nonchalantly.

Sakura never bothered looking up; in fact, she carried on as though she didn't hear him. "Who?" She asked quietly.

Another smile. .."Your friend's buddy." He joked.

She looked up at him, glaring again. That animal was hardly her buddy. He was a disgusting freak who deserved to be… ah never mind. "I don't care." She said, clearly lacking enthusiasm.

"You should. He's pissed that you interfered."

"Tch"

"And I'm pretty sure he wants to take it out on you…personally." The man said, once again looking for a reaction.

Sakura twitched a little, but remained still. Why wasn't she surprised?

"Actually, everyone here is practically waiting their turn in line to get their hands on you." He chuckled dryly.

She looked up at him again, parting her mouth as if to say something, but opting not to. Instead she bit her lower lip gently and looked back to the ground. She should have expected it, but it wasn't something you could hear and think 'Oh okay, no biggie'. She dreaded it… absolutely dreaded it. There was a long break of silence. Neither of them said anything at all. They just sat there and became lost in their own thoughts.

"Why..?" Sakura quietly whispered, earning the attention of the man. "Why are you all doing this? Why did you come after us?" she asked, still barely above a whisper. They didn't do anything! Nothing!

The man stared at her, raising his eyebrows. "I'm not authorized to answer that." He replied plainly.

Sakura rolled her eyes. "Huh. Of course not. So why are you in here then?" She asked, peering at him now out of the corner of her eyes.

He scratched his chin and looked up for a brief moment. It seemed as though he was trying to find the right wording…

"You liked it didn't you?" he asked, looking at her now and causing her to quickly look away. "You liked how I was touching you earlier…" He didn't even ask this time. More like, stated.

Sakura whipped her head up to look at him, eyes narrowing again. "Excuse you?"

"Don't deny it."

"…" She clenched her fists and teeth and opened her mouth to lash out at him, but she noticed his demeanor change and he lunged at her, trapping her between him and the wall.

Sakura yelped and pressed herself into the wall the best she could. "Wha-"

"-I know you liked it…" He said seriously, leaning in enough to make Sakura uncomfortable, thus causing her to turn her head. Using this to his advantage, he placed his lips by her ear; "And I can help you feel that way again" he breathed hotly.

Sakura tried to suppress the shivers that had just coursed through her…

He began to kiss trails along her neck, "remember those tingles I sent through your body?"

Up her jaw, "the sensation that you felt… down there…" he placed a hand on her inner thigh, making Sakura attempt to move away further.

Displeased, he grabbed both sides of her head, and placing his knee between her legs and kissed her roughly on the lips.

Sakura turned her mouth into a hard line and whimpered, quickly raising her hands and shoving him in the chest in attempt to push him off of her! But it didn't work, he only kissed her harder. Gripping her hair roughly on one side of her head, he removed the other and instead placed it on her chest.

Sakura gasped both at the pain he was causing now on her scalp, and his hand that was now gently squeezing her breast.

The man then forced his tongue in her mouth and began to explore the new territory. Sakura cried out and continued to shove against him. When that didn't work, she just went completely limp, trying her best to block him out and come up with an alternative plan.

He smiled, mistaking her actions as giving into him. He pulled away just enough to look into her eyes. They showed a glint of anger, but he didn't care…

"There you go, baby. Just give in. Enjoy." He whispered, now using his hand to continuously brush her hair out of her face and caressing her cheek…as though she were some…child!

Sakura then had an idea; she only hoped it would work and that she wouldn't make a complete and utter fool of herself. While discreetly allowing chakra to build up in her fist, she changed her expression, allowing a saddened look in her eyes and pressing her cheek into his hand, acting as though she was holding in tears.

The man lightened up the slightest bit and watched her. "…You understand now, right?" He asked, meeting her eyes when she looked at him.

"Everyone wants to have their way with you… and they will do whatever they want to… but I can at least make it a little more bearable." His face still lacked emotion. But hers didn't… She actually had to try really really hard just then to not let the anger she just felt show through… So instead she said nothing.

He then leaned in again and kissed her, a little more gently now, but still passionate. It wasn't passionate to her though. Every minute of it was disgusting. Every minute of it…

He had placed his hands on both sides of her head again, and it was the perfect moment. She started to lean forward, appearing to be deepening the kiss, but then launched her fist into his gut, sending him back with such force that he practically made it to the other corner side of the room. If she had more time, the punch would have had so much more power… but given the current circumstance, this would have to suffice.

Quickly she got to her feet and bolted towards the door!

The man looked up, lip bleeding, with such anger in his eyes…

She made eye contact with him and nearly froze from the death glare he gave her. Not paying attention, she slammed into something so hard; it almost knocked the wind out of her. This time she did land straight on her butt, yelping when she did. Ignoring the current pain shooting through her tailbone, she looked up to see what she ran into and this time, she did freeze.

*SLAM*

"What!" Yelled the Hokage, Tsunade.

Hinata flinched and bit her lip. Kiba made no movement at all and focused on a small space of her desk…

"B-by some stranger… S-Sakura…she…she w-was taken…out of the village" She was fighting back tears again and brushed a lock of hair behind her ear.

Tsunade let out a long sigh and dramatically sat back in her chair. "Tell me exactly what happened…" She ordered, motioning for Hinata and Kiba to have a seat.

BUH BUH BUHHHHHHHH! Chapter 1 doneee :D Did you like it? Did you hate it? :O Let me know! I love reviewssss!
