The Fallen One

Chapter 3

After a few hours in the tree, she finally decided to get down and go back inside now that she had squared away her thoughts. Just then, she collided with a very muscular chest and stumbled backwards.

"I'm sorry. I should have been watching where I was going." She bowed her head then looked at the one she had run into. It was a blonde male (at least she hoped it was a male) and he looked a little surprised. He looked at her and grinned.

"Nice to meet you. I'm Deidara, un. And you are?" She smiled softly back at the man and bowed formally.

"My name is Sakura. Can you show me back to my room? I'm new and don't really know where I'm going." She smiled sheepishly at him and tilted her head sideways to where her hair was covering one eye. He nodded and led her through the kitchen and he stopped to introduce her to everyone once she was okay with it. She had already met Kisame, Konan, Leader-sama, and now Deidara. Now she just had to get passed meeting all who were in the kitchen. She bowed formally and introduced herself.

"Hello. My name is Sakura. It's a pleasure to meet all of you."

The first one to answer her was a silver haired man with pinkish eyes. He smirked at her playfully.

"My fucking name is Hidan, bitch." Sakura blinked at his language and smiled at him. She figured that was the way he was, cocky.

"The man with the red hair is Sasori-danna, the man with the swirl mask is Tobi, the man with the long black hair is Itachi, the man with the stitches is Kakuzu, and the one who looks like a plant is Zetsu." Deidara wrapped an arm around her shoulders. She smiled at them and nodded. He led them out of the room and down the hallway.

"Our rooms are decorated by things we like. For example, mine has art on it, Sasori-danna's has puppets, Zetsu's has plants, Kisame's has sharks, Itachi's has books, Hidan's has his religion, Kakuzu's has money, Konan's has paper flowers, Tobi's has butterflies, Leader-sama's has the kanji for power. As for yours, it's still blank. You've just got to decorate it." Deidara walked up to her door and pointed at it. She pulled out a senbon and scratched the kanji for secret into the top of her door along with the kanji for servant. Deidara wasn't sure what the second kanji was for but he just nodded.

"Deidara-san, can you help me with my door? There is something else I would like to have on it, however I'm not artistic or creative. I wish I had learned as a child but I never had the chance." Sakura looked at her door again and opened it. She went into her room and pulled out a box from her closet and turned around. She opened the box and looked at the contents. Inside the box was a small statue. It was of an eagle with its wings spread to fly. She had always wanted to be free but realized that would never happen.

"Sakura-san."

Sakura turned around and sighed mentally. She didn't really want to see Kisame right now but she had no other choice. She nodded at Deidara and followed Kisame into his room. The moment the door was closed behind them, she dropped to the floor in the same style bow from that morning. Kisame was confused. Why did she keep bowing to him? He wanted answers and he wanted them now.

"Sakura-san, can I ask you something?"

"Of course Kisame-sama. What is it you ask of me?" she looked up at his surprised face. She habitually used the honorific without realizing.

"Sit up. I've got questions for you." She complied immediately and sat straight up without having to be told twice.

"Why are you calling me sama? How do you know who I am? Why don't you have chakra? And why do you keep bowing like a servant would when you are around me? I don't understand any of it. Why did you faint when you saw me? Are you the one that healed me yesterday?"

Sakura turned to where her back was facing Kisame and pulled down her tank top strap and moved her hair. Kisame gasped softly. It seemed he remembered her now. Now she would have to leave again.

"I am a servant to the Hoshigaki clan. You were the last remaining family member after your family was murdered. I was ordered to be your personal servant. I fainted when I saw you because I knew you didn't remember me and it was better that way and yes I'm the one that healed you yesterday. However I can't tell you why I don't have chakra. I would be killed." She turned back around and bowed her head once again and flipped over her left wrist. She showed him the seal she had kept hidden from him all those years ago.

"Your family had this seal placed on me at the age of 5. They told me if I told anyone about why I don't have chakra, I would die as this seal would be released. I would rather not die even though they are dead Kisame-sama."

Kisame looked at her in complete awe. He had wondered what had happened to her. He had cared deeply for her as a person, not as a servant and he had started to fall for her when she disappeared without a trace. He searched everywhere for her and could never find any proof that she had ever existed.

"I'm sorry Sakura. Please forgive me." Kisame watched her closely. She had always been unique with her pink and black hair, one green eye and one blue eye, the latter of which stayed covered and a crooked smile that could brighten anyone's day.

"I'm sorry Kisame-sama." she stated then she collapsed in his arms. As she fell, he caught her and laid her gently on his bed, covered her up and walked out the door. He now remembered everything about her and his feelings for her returned full force. As much as he hated to, he had to report everything to Leader-sama. As he went walking to the office, he ran into leader-sama.

"I have a report to make to you. I remember everything about her now." Kisame looked over at the leader of the organization and sighed. He really didn't want to have to do this but he had no choice. Leader-sama nodded and together they walked to his office. Kisame stood in front of the desk while leader-sama sat in the chair behind said desk.

"Start from the beginning." Leader-sama stated as Konan walked in silently and stood by the carrot top. Kisame sighed. He wished Sakura was in here to glare at him for betraying her.

"She was a servant to my clan since she was a child. Her family had sold her because they thought her to be a disgrace to them. They had struck up a deal with some twisted people from Kiri. Some of those people were my family. I was gone at the time she was purchased. When I returned home 2 years after she was purchased, I saw her bowing down to my father and mother as if they were royal. They had seen I had returned and decided to make her my personal servant to do whatever I so desired her to do. Including that. I would have never wished that on a child so when my parents were gone, I would not allow her to serve me. I told her she was a human, not a slave and shouldn't be treated like a slave."

"When she turned 11, my family was killed. Some of the other twisted people from Kiri had killed them because they wanted Sakura to serve them and for her to be their sex slave. She found out and ran. Before she left, she had left me a note telling me to forget she had ever served me and that when the time was right, she would find me. She had fallen for me and figured she would never be cared for because she was a servant. I looked for her everywhere I could possibly think of, whether I was on a mission or not. I couldn't find her anywhere. When I joined the Akatsuki, I gave up and forgot about her. It seems the time is right however, since she found me."

"Kisame you bastard." Kisame whirled around to see the look of complete betrayal on Sakura's face. Didn't he realize what he had just done? She looked at him with tears in her eyes and turned around and ran out the door. As she ran off, she ran into Deidara. She leaned on his shoulder and bawled her eyes out. She was so betrayed by the one she cared for the most. Deidara patted her back, picked her up and carried her to her bedroom. He sat on the bed with her, and didn't say a word as he held her and she cried. Soon she passed out from exhaustion and he laid her in her bed, kissed her forehead and walked out of the room and shut the door. The poor girl had been through so much already. Deidara was trying to figure out what had happened when Konan came up to him.

"Deidara, have you seen Sakura? Kisame is looking for her." Deidara softly growled. So that's who caused her to cry. He figured as much.

"She's in her bed. She passed out in my arms after bawling her eyes out in my arms, un. She was crying so much, I didn't think she was going to stop as quick as she did, un." Deidara nodded to Konan and returned to his room. He was angry. Konan returned to the office to find a glaring Pein and a pacing Kisame.

"You have broken the girl, Kisame." Was all Konan said as she disappeared into the door on the side of the room.

"Damn it."
