The blonde left the door's side and brought the silver platter to the bubblegum haired girl and smiled. Sakura's brow went up slightly; her right hand grasped the top of the silver platter only to find a note inside. No food. She sighed and picked up the note, the blonde politely bowed and turned to the door. Sakura's watchful eyes trained after him and watched as his broad frame escaped the room. She then looked down to remember the note and her eyes began to read it.
You should meet everyone instead of eating alone. Come to the dining hall, we will have someone escort you.
Pein
Sakura sighed, well…who was going to do that? She was alone in a room that wasn't her's nor did it belong to her in any way. The door grated open and Sakura noticed the blonde starring at her," Sorry, please follow me." He laughed with an apologetic tone and Sakura only giggled. He turned and she began to walk only to follow him. Once again she returned to the dark and ominous hallways. She had her hands behind her back, held tightly together as she walked. Every now and then the blonde would take a quick and an undiscovered glance. As they walked nothing but the air passing over their ears made sound.
"So…Sakura, how long have you been here?" His voice was awkward and his arms fidgeted, gathering her attention. "I've only just been here for two days until now. Um…The Clay Master, Deidara, had rescued me from storm that I was caught in and he nursed me to health." Her cheeks turned to an illuming red at the mention of his name, the blonde caught this. He snickered," So you like him I take it?" Sakura began to gap, her voice and mind all too scrambled for her to give an input. He laughed," It's ok; I didn't mean to put you on the spot. "She only looked ahead, her cheeks still with the essence of tomato. Finally they came to the dining hall door," Here we are, enjoy." The blonde was about to walk away when her hand caught his hand," Wait…what's your name?"
The blonde laughed nervously, with his hand scratching the back of his head," I'm Naruto Uzumaki." Sakura nodded with a 'hn' while dropping his hand and said," Thank you, Naruto. I hope to see you again sometime." A slight rosy blush met his face as he bowed and walked off. He was out of range and what stood in her view now was the dining room hall door. A pang of fear hit her, waves of heat just pouring down on her like a waterfall of fear. She sighed, took a deep breath and her hands came to the door, opening it with effort. The door opened and soon the light from the dining room filled her eyes making her blink and put her arm in front of her eyes. Sakura stepped forward to find a full room with every set of eyes on her, her stomach flopped.
A man who stood next to a plant, dressed in purple and greeted with silver hair, came to her side. He bowed and gave a smile," You are Haruno Sakura, correct?" She nodded," Please follow me." The room went back to normal, with all the clamoring that had once stood like before. Minutes had passed and finally Sakura reached her destination. The gray haired blunder pulled out her chair and held his hand out for her to grasp. Her hand took his and was led to her seat. As she sat down she was scooted up to the table. Sakura looked behind her to thank him only to find that he wasn't there, she sighed in defeat and looked forward to the pile of food.
So many platters, numerous foods from far and wide, many of which she had not seen. Her plate was made of pure silver, along with her utensils and her cup was made of glass. Sakura leaned forward to take some food only to feel a tap on her shoulder. She looked up to see a familiar orange haired man, she jumped in shock. He held out his hand and Sakura only looked at it only to find his hand attaching to her's. Slowly she came unglued from her chair and found herself walking next to the said man. Her cheeks found a little pink while her eyes caught a familiar blonde who she now sat next to, Pein was to her right and Deidara on her left.
The blonde leaned over and whispered to her, slightly tickling her ear," Hey beautiful, what took you so long?" Sakura moved her head to the left and looked at him, her cheeks taking on an extra shade of bright lemonade pink. He chuckled and went back to eating," So, how do you like it here?" Sakura looked to her right, to see Pein looking at her while he took a bite of food. "I uh…it's great." Pein nodded and then swallowed," After dinner you are to meet some very important friends of mine. It's imperative that you know who they are, just in any chance of what may happen in future events. "
Sakura nodded though the ending of his statement caught her off balance. What did he mean by future events, it only went to the back of her mind. Dinner had passed and Pein had led her out of the dining hall to the first room she came to that brought her to her first encounter with Pein. Pein opened the door and Sakura had entered the room only to notice there were already people in there. Pein closed the door and resumed being by her side, his hand found the small of her back and led her to the center of the oval room. Sakura's heart raced, all eyes were on her and nothing could erase the fact of that gut wrenching feeling. "Everyone, this is Haruno Sakura, a once loyal servant guard to the royal Uchiha clan back in Konohagakure." The room was still quite with the exception of Pein's voice," Special thanks are in order for the said Clay Master, Deidara. Now, a room is still being acquired for our guest, so if anyone is kind enough to take-"
The door into the oval room was opened only to shut; all eyes came to the door. As if slow motion was turned on, like a switch, her emerald eyes saw a familiar dark and mysterious man. His hair was as dark as the night and his eyes were as dark as obsidian, with a pale moon like complexion. One look into those familiar eyes made her shiver, her back tingling with heat. "Itachi, what news do you bring?" News? His eyes didn't linger long on the said pink haired girl," I'll give you a report tomorrow." Pein nodded and then his eyes found her's once more. " You already know Sakura, I was just getting to the point of her room arrangements-" Itachi's eyes switched to the orange haired man with an icy stare," She will be with me and I will have it no other way." Pein felt a little shocked, but showed no expression," Very well."
Pein looked to Sakura and then to the others, Sakura following suet. "Now I am to do some work in my room, I ask that no one disturbs me unless the walls are coming down. Be polite and introduce yourselves." With that Pein left the room and all became an ear splitting silence. No one moved, but only stares were exchanged. Finally the Clay Master got up and went to Sakura's side," Sakura, allow me to introduce my friends." Sakura watched as he began to point and name. "This is Sasori, the Puppet Master and a very well known artist." The red head nodded and Sakura did the same. "This," pointing to a man with blue body paint," is Kisame, our deathly feared and talented swordsmen, commonly known as the Blue Death." The man merely took one look and turned away. "Next, is our lovely Konan, deemed as the Paper's Unknown Plague." The woman turned her nose up at Sakura. "Kakuzu," he said pointing the man dressed in white.
"The Immortal Man, Hidan," the purple eyed man tilted his head and winked. Sakura flushed," The Cannibal, Zetsu." Sakura looked at the said man who had a yin-yang type of face paint with grass green hair. He only gave a 'hmp' and looked elsewhere. "That's all of them-"
"Wait, Deidara-sempai forgot Tobi." The said man growled while tightening his fists," and Tobi the idiot." Sakura laughed as Tobi began to pout. A few moments passed when Sakura felt a tap on her shoulder and was soon dragged out of the room. Sakura looked to his wrist and then to the dark man that was dragging her down the hall. "I-Itachi…Itachi-sama, stop," he kept his tightening grip," please."
