Hey, sorry it's been so g\long for an update on this story I've been trying to update on A Saiyan's pride. Any way here's chapter 3. and so you know there are spoilers in this chapter sorry, it is a lot of flash backs but I think they are needed.

-Chapter 3- Commence

The room was pitch black; a boy sat in a corner of a room arms tied behind his back, head lowered in shame. No food had been brought to him since he had arrived. He was hungry and weak. All he seemed to think about was a pink haired shinobi.

"Sasuke, have you decided?" A voice hissed.

"Never." Sasuke said.

"Why are you doing this the hard way? She doesn't want you she would be here by now would she not?" The voice said.

"You're wrong Orochimaru." Sasuke said.

"How so Sasuke?" Orochimaru said.

"I'll get back to her."

"No you won't. You'll die here." Orochimaru said. At that an iron door clanged shut.

Your wrong Orochimaru, I will get back to Sakura. I've ignored her far to long and now that I tell her my feelings this happens. Sakura I promise to see you again. You got me to open up to you and Naruto. I'm sorry I left you again.

Memories came back to him of the first time team 7 met.

"My name is Haruno Sakura. My favorite thing is…well It's not a thing, it's a boy…and that boy is…Uh…Let's move on to my dream." Sakura said blushing. "I hate…Naruto. My hobbies are…"

"Sakura you liked me even then but you couldn't say it and I ignored you, you wouldn't let Naruto have you. You waited for me. I'll get back to you I promise.

That memory then changed to their first mission.

Sakura was standing in front of Tazuna protecting him from a mist ninja. With out thinking Sasuke's body moved in front of Sakura.

She can't get hurt. Sasuke thought.

Later in that same mission Sasuke was trapped in Haku's ice mirrors. He was contemplating on ideas on how to get himself and Naruto out, when he heard a female's voice scream. Sasuke's brain automatically registered the voice as Sakura's.

'What happened? What the hell is Kakashi thinking?' Sasuke thought.

"Did I have feelings for her then but hide it from myself?"

Black mist clouded his vision. He opened his eyes only to see Sakura with short ruff hair; she was cut in many places and was bleeding.

"Who hurt you Sakura?" Sasuke said.

Sakura said nothing.

"Say it. Who the hell hurt you?" Sasuke said.

Again Sakura was silent.

"I did." A voice said from his side.

Sasuke sped of appearing behind him and grabbed his arms, dislocating them. Before He could finish off the other two Sakura wrapped her arms around him from behind.

"Please…Please stop." Sakura said tears streaming from her eyes.

The curse disappeared, Orochimaru's curse.

"I've always loved her but my brother and now Orochimaru have stopped me from being with her. My brother's gone he is no more. Orochimaru is the only one left. Sakura I love you but now I have a mission of my own to do."

With that the memories of the night he had to leave her came to mind.

"Sakura, run!" Sasuke said grasping his shoulder in pain.

"Not with out you." Sakura said in a worried voice.

That merged with later events.

"Sakura I want you to have this." Sasuke said pulling out a silver necklace with 2 silver rings on it. The smaller ring had the Uchiha symbol around it. The larger ring had nothing on it at all.

"But Sasuke-kun…"Sakura started looking at Sasuke, the moon shining on his face.

"I want you to have them, Sakura." Sasuke said carefully putting the necklace around Sakura's neck. "Keep them safe."

"I will." Sakura said. "I've been thinking about what you said earlier and I would be happy to stay with you forever because I love you."

"I…lo…" Sasuke tried to say.

"You don't have to say it Sasuke-kun. There are other ways to show someone you love them." Sakura said.

Sasuke felt stupid for not being able to tell Sakura that he loved her. So he thought of a way to show her. He leaned close to Sakura and closed his eyes. He gently placed his hand on the back of Sakura's head and pulled her closer. Sakura closed her eyes as she felt his warm breath on her face. At that time Sasuke captured her lips as his. They seemed to stay like that for an eternity, when Sasuke pulled away from her. Sasuke looked at Sakura. Sakura's eyes fluttered open to look at Sasuke.

"I love you too." Sakura said quietly.

His promise came to mind.

"Sakura, I love you." Sasuke said calmly. He faced Sakura and claimed her lips again. He backed away. "Take care of yourself. I'll come back to you I promise. Please wait for me."

"Sasuke-kun please don't leave me. I need you here with me." Sakura sobbed, hugging Sasuke from behind. "I'm yours forever. Please don't leave me."

"I'm sorry Sakura but I can't let you get killed and we are to out numbered to run so I must." Sasuke said releasing himself from Sakura's huge. He the turned ad faced her. "I will come back; you can stake your life on that." He said. He hugged her then turned and walked to Orochimaru.

"Let's go." Orochimaru said.

"I can't believe I left her. I left her for this, being chained up and not fed. I avenge my clan and now I'm taken away from the women I love. You're going to pay Orochimaru. I swear on my life you'll pay.

Sasuke's eyes turned a crimson red.

"Doesn't he know that every great shinobi is an escape artist? These ropes will not hold me any more."

Sasuke moved his arms to his right leg, to his holster. "They dumbly left me with all my weapons. This must be a trap."

He pulled a kunai out, flipped it so that the blade was between his arms and thrust the kunai down. The ropes fell to the floor.

"Even if this is a trap I will kill you Orochimaru I will leave this place. I'm done with you."

Foots steps could be heard coming down the hall. Sasuke hid in the shadows beside the door.

The iron door clanged open and a sound ninja walked in.

Commence Sasuke vs. Orochimaru. Sasuke thought to himself.
