Premonitions of a Dominatrix:
Her eyelids felt heavy against her throbbing head, her temples were flaring with pain. Her body was growing numb as the icy flakes slowly covered her body. She was in a secret heaven, the light reaching her eyes. She was sick, her blood cold and merciless towards all. The once beautiful pink tresses that lingered around her cheeks were now faded and nearly looked white. She smiled as the last layer of snowfall began to cover her paled face, suffocating her, killing her.
"Already trying to leave hm?"
Sakura's eyes widened at the words and she stopped just before her hand turned the knob on the door. She was fully dressed in her ANBU uniform, even her black boots were buckled on (1). He smirked and stood. His bare footsteps could be heard faintly approaching her and her back stiffened. Cold fingertips rubbed the bare of her shoulders, sketching over the swirled tattoo on the left upper arm. She was melting into his touch, she wanted to give in, but she had to fight it. She had to. If she were to get anywhere, she had to fight it, with all she had!
"P-Please..." she closed her eyes and struggled to obtain stability. "...let go of me..."
He smirked wide enough that she heard his lips literally parting. A second hand of his trailed down her sides, teasing her every pore under her clothes. She yelped, her knees buckling underneath her, only his firm hand holding her up. His second hand raised from her tattoo and up to her chin, where he turned it and forced her to look at his shadowed form.
Shadowed form? A shadowed form. Nothing more. No face, nor body, only a shadow. She could feel him, she could hear him, but never could she make out him. No this power he had over her, intoxicating, was nothing more than a shadow. And it hurt. Her eyes squinted and she tried to suppress it, but the tear fell. The warm salty fluid trailed down her cheek to rest upon her voluptuous lips.
His hand reached up to wipe the tear, but she turned her face away. "Please..."
"Say my name... and this dream will end..."
She stared at the shadow, her vision blurring as tears poured. Her eyelids continued to grow heavy and lowered extravagantly. Just before they shut closed though, she swore she saw a heavy onyx flare.
Her body dropped limp.

San: Interesting…. Interesting Indeed!
Tonight is the day we die
Night mist sprayed her face hastily as she sprinted towards the form of her and Sasuke's pain. In a millisecond she appeared before him, her eyes shining with determination.
In her right palm was suppressed chakra, which was flaring, ready to attack. She thrust her hand foreword aiming for the man's chest. Just as her hand was about to touch the silken fabric of his coat, his hand grabbed her wrist, paralyzing it with its tight grip. Sakura shrieked as she felt the cracking of her bone. But she wasn't going to give up yet. While still in his grip she swung her leg around and tried to kick his leg. He successfully defended her kick and lifted her from the ground. She began to flail around in hopes that he would let her go.
Oddly he did, and Sakura took the advantage. Calling chakra into her palms once again she threw out her fist and barely brushed against Itachi's cloak. Though it seemed no damage would've been done by that, Sakura knew better. Her powerful chakra was able to extend depending on the power of the blow and even if it only be a mere skim on clothing the chakra will be able to flare out into his body. If she had touched skin it was possible she could tear flesh with the chakra. She smiled arrogantly as Itachi jerked back, his face still emotionless, but his body tense.
She was about to run towards him again, but she was oddly stopped in her place.
"Such an interesting kunoichi..."
Her mind turned blank and her body numbed. The last thing she could make out were the deep red eyes circling within a dark shadow.

The morning came and went. It was Saturday, March 28th. The day of Sakura's eighteenth birthday.
Naruto lay in bed, his head resting on his folded arms. He wondered where Sakura could be. He moved one of his hands into his pocket and pulled out the smooth box. It was so beautifully wrapped, it reminded him so much of how beautiful Sakura was, and now she was gone. No, she wasn't he wouldn't allow himself to belief it.
She was still alive and well, he knew it. She was on her way home and would arrive, surprising the entire village saying "Miss Me Anyone?" And they'd all laugh.
Yeah, that's what would happen. If only Naruto could convince himself it was true.
All of a sudden, Naruto was dragged from his thoughts when an abrupt pounding came from his door.
---
Sakura felt warm, so warm she could melt. Her nostrils filled with the spicy scent of fire, ginseng and... tumbleweed? It was an odd mixture, but it seemed to sooth the terrible aching migraine that was penetrating deep beneath her temples. She tilted her head, noticing the blur of green tree leaves passing by. Her mind barely took in recognition that she was moving, but not on her own.
Her eyes grew wide, and she realized the black cloak she was 'oh so close' to, her body loosely strapped over by two overlapping thick leather straps. She couldn't help but feel somewhat like a doll, in her position.
She turned her head around to face the other way and saw another body strapped near, against the body of a blue skinned man. His hair was matted from the rain and dried blood stained his forehead trailing down to his cheeks. He was wrapped around his stomach area, in bloodied gauze, and his eyes were closed in a steady slumber.
"Sasuke..." Her voice was so soft it nearly made no sound, but to her surprise someone was listening.
"He's sleeping."
"Huh..." Sakura heard the deep voice erupt from the person carrying her. She was too weak to lift her head to see who it was, but his voice was cold and emotionless.
"Are you deaf kunoichi?" An even deeper, huskier voice spoke. "I don't think Itachi likes to repeat himself." Husky laughter escaped the lips; quickly to be replaced by mucus filled coughing. Sakura shifted her eyes to rest on the blue man who was carrying Sasuke, his coughing the only sound in the air.
A few minutes of silence and a couple dozen of miles later, they came to a slow stop. Sakura had her eyes closed once again; the strain on her body too much for her to have seen where they were; that is until she dropped.
It wasn't a hard drop but still a drop nonetheless. The first thing her mind took in after the shock was the soft feeling from underneath her.
Then her eyes managed to roam the dark walls surrounding her, they looked that of the old traditional ones, made of polished mahogany all except the ceiling, which seemed to be dripping a foul substance. Whether it was water or blood, Sakura couldn't tell. The ground around her was of concrete of which seemed to be chipped and had various water stains and a darker substance that looked like urine. The bed she had been dropped on was white and the sheets were clean enough give the exception that the edge had a maroon/brownish colored spot on it.
"Where am I?"
"That is none of your concern, as of now you are a hostage. Do not attempt to escape this building, or the consequences will be dire." His voice ran smoothly, and was perfected in pitch. If Sakura didn't hate him, she'd probably be drooling over him. He looked down upon her, his bleeding red eyes downing in Sakura's green ones.
Sakura glared at Itachi, "Where is Sasuke. Or is that not any of my concern either." She folded her arms over in a stubborn pattern. The wrong thing to do in that moment.
Itachi's usual stoic face, disgruntled for a split second, his eyes changing from its normal three pronged sharingan to a pin wheeled fiasco, for Sakura that is. "I will tell you this now. Know your place kunoichi, or you will suffer. I have little patience for people of your stature and will not be talked to in that rude manner. Understand?"
Sakura flexed back in fright, her body attempting to contain the mass of shivers crawling up her spine. She bit her lip and tried to regain her composure. She still wanted her question answered, but now was more afraid then ever. She was in the presence of a mass murderer after all.
As if reading her mind Itachi spoke. "Sasuke is in the room next door to yours." Itachi turned around and began to gait leisurely towards the door. "There are towels in the bathroom, and a change of clothing on the counter. Please clean yourself and be ready in thirty minutes for dinner. Don't make me wait." With that he left, his long akatsuki cloak dragging behind him.
Sakura sighed and walked over towards the bathroom.
---
"Naruto! Tsunade called us for a meeting pronto."
Naruto lazily swung open the door. "Yeah, yeah, what is it?"
"-sigh- You are so troublesome. Come on. Tsunade wants us in her office in five minutes."
"Yeah, yeah, fine..." Naruto yawned and followed Shikamaru towards Hokage Mountain.
-
"I don't know whether you guys are aware of what has happened over in other countries over the past few days, but I have been recently informed on some information from the Land of Rice fields."
"Yeah! What is it! Isn't the land of rice fields where Sasuke is!?"
"Yes, Naruto be patient. As I was saying we have been informed of some 'odd' circumstances from the village hidden in the sound..."
"Tsunade-obaachan! Get on with it already!"
"NARUTO! Either sit down and be quiet and listen or leave!"
"Huh... hmph..." Naruto sat down with a pout and crossed his arms angrily.
"AS I was saying, ahem, a small village near the village of the sound reported that they heard a loud explosion in the direction of the sound village, and when one was sent there for inspection, well he never returned. It was also said that when a second one was sent they returned, but seemed to be under a genjutsu of some sort that caused them to go into a coma after short inspection. That village then called on us for reinforcement and wants some of our ANBU to figure out what happened there."
After a short silence Tsunade continued. "I have chosen you five to go on inspection. Please leave first thing tomorrow at dawn."
"Hai!"
Neji, Shikamaru, Kakashi, Genma, and Naruto all filed out one after the other to prepare for this journey. Naruto was especially excited.
"Sasuke... This time if I find you, I'll be sure to bring you back!"
---
Pushing herself from the grasp of the warm water, she stepped out of the bathtub and wrapped a thin towel around her form. Looking around the bathroom she scanned for any sign of clothing, but to her astonishment she saw none. 'And I though he said the clothes were on the counter.'
She sighed and walked back into her room. She sat down on her bed yawning. She hadn't realized it, but she was actually quite tired; well either that or the bath just made her tired.
Looking over to the digital clock near her bed it said '5:19.' She smiled and laid back. "Well I guess a small nap couldn't hurt."
---
Green orbs fluttered open to stare at the stucco ceiling. It was dark in her room now; only the faint glimmer of the past sun remained etched upon her walls. Sakura sat up and spun around, to try to look out the small window above her bed. Outside could barely be seen, only the silhouette of trees and the shadows below from the moonlight could be seen around the area. Sakura had no idea where she was.
Turning back around with an 'hmph' she looked around her room. It was then that she noticed she wasn't alone.
Black orbs stared blankly at her, reprimanded with a stoic expression. Their eyes met momentarily before the deep eyes shut, and were replaced with red flaming ones.
"You made me wait kunoichi,"
Sakura's eyes widened, her lip trembling in fear. Though the stark expression across his face wasn't what one could exactly call 'frightening,' he was emitting a deadly aura, one that could kill.
"Do you know what will happen, when you keep me waiting that is?"
"N-No..." Sakura looked down upon the cotton sheets beneath her, deliberately avoiding looking at the elder Uchiha brother.
"Hn..." Sakura looked up and Itachi was gone. Her eyes widened to a further extent, one seemingly to be bulging from their sockets...almost...
"I-Itachi-s-san?" Sakura's emerald orbs scanned left and right for any sign of the male, but saw none. Sakura bit in her lip in frustration. She couldn't feel his presence even a little. "Did he leave?" She questioned herself out loud and closed her eyes to better attempt at finding even the smallest amount of chakra present throughout the room.
A haughty smirk spread across her paled face, as she had felt the faint presence in the ambiance, just behind her. She was about to turn around to face her perpetrator but...
"Not exactly..."
Her eyes flew open. He was so fast she didn't even have enough time to realize he had gripped her chin in a strong hold. Pain flashed through her skin as his grip tightened and he lifted her so they met gazes. Emerald met ruby. His eyes were like fangs of a tiger waiting to pierce through the thin flesh of a mouse; and Sakura was that mouse.
She felt herself losing it, as she gazed into the endless depths of his so called eyes. She was drowning and she needed to regain her breath or she'd die. Forcing herself to look away she lowered her eyes so she looked to the ground.
Pain seared through the lower half of her face. The faint cracking of bone could be heard as a loud echo through the small room. Sakura clenched her fists and let out a tiny hiss, at the same time jerking back from his grip. To her surprise he released her, allowing her to dart back, but she stumbled over her own feet due to the sheets beneath her.
"Hmph..."
Sakura only had a fifth of a second to realize Itachi had moved and now appeared before her, his hand gripping her neck in a strangling motion, and they flew back into the wall; Sakura's back smashed into the backboard of the bed, every last decorative hump in the wood scraping against her back. She gasped and glared at the Uchiha.
That was when she got her first good look at him. He wasn't wearing his black cloak and instead was wearing dark navy slacks and a mesh shirt to match it. His legs were wrapped in clean white gauze as far as she could see before they were covered by the slacks, his shoes taken off, revealing bare feet. She could feel the strong bulging muscles on his chest as he pressed up against her body. His muscles in his arms tensed as he tightened his grip on her neck, the veins on his skin protruding slightly. His face was that of porcelain, only the deep scars welding into his skin from the higher of his nose reaching out to his pale cheeks acting as the betrayal of his youth. He was like a living portrait, one that's colors could never fade, whether you wished it to or not.
Sakura heaved in a large sum of air, feeling the slimy lump growing in her throat. Itachi could feel the anxiety through her every inch, reading her like a book. Sakura could see it and it frightened the hell out of her. But she wasn't going to let her reputation fall for anyone. She was going to be the femme fatale everyone knew her as, even until the brinks of death.
A sign of determination escalated through the girl's features, rousing a brow from Itachi's point of view. How she could change from frightened as a mouse, to as determined as a lion, he didn't know, but Itachi wasn't one to let things be. No matter what, he would find out.
"Your interesting kunoichi. You may just be of some use..." The Mangekyo Sharingan flared, Sakura gasped. Then everything went dark.
TBC...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Well that's all for the third chapter…. You didn't think it was too short was it? I hope not, but the next chapter will definitely be a little longer if not a lot…. Please tell me what you thought of this chapter, and whether it is pondering in one place and boring or whether it's good enough to continue on with…. Oh, and would you guys like me to add a preview of the next chapter at the end of my chapters? If you would please tell me….So until next time…. Oyasuminasai! (Goodnight!)
By the Way(s):
(1): I'm sure you all know this but just incase you don't I will inform you. In Japan you aren't supposed to wear outdoor shoes inside, and is considered quite rude, especially when in another's home. There are certain slippers to walk around inside of which boots are not included, so Sakura is clearly ignoring those regulations.

Review Responses….
Shadow miko: Thank you so much for your response. Yes, this fic will inevitably end up as a ItaSaku fic, but I had to have the Naruto conflict just because it has a major part on the future chapters. I will do my best to make your ItaSaku desires complete, but please wait on me, Ok…. Thanks again, and I'd love to hear from you again.
Liandrin: Hehe, Too funny… but also so true. I'm on your side with the fact Sasuke and Itachi need a good beating, maybe Sasuke a little more than others for his obnoxious behavior, and obsessive actions towards his brother to block out all others feelings. Thank you for your review and please continue reviewing….
SachiruNatsu: Thank you! I'm glad you like it, and I really am sorry for the confusion; though if you mean the part just before the chapter begins, It is meant to be confusing, but If anything else is confusing just let me know so I may fix it. Thanks a bunch…
Me..(?): Spelling mistake eh? Well I'm glad you caught it, It is a big help. Please tell me if there are any other major misspellings. Thanks for the review.
SweetAssassin: New moves eh? Well, I'm not the best at being very descriptive with battles, but I hope this chapter was enough, though I'll tell you this, Sakura does get the courage to 'confront' her issues later on…. Maybe she'll show more of her moves then, But anyways thank you for your response.
Sillymail: You could picture my story?! That's very touching. I thought I was making it a little difficult for people to picture, but that makes me happy that they actually could! I'm sorry I asked for 25 reviews, but I needed to make sure I had enough time to finish this chappy…. And continue on with it so I wouldn't fall behind. Oh and Since you puppy pouted for my chapter I decided to update with only 15 reviews!! Haha! Thanks for your review and I hope you will continue on with updating.
