AN: In the anime,Kyodaija is the term used for the snake summons of Orochimaru, Sasuke, and all the others who have snakes for summons.
Kyodaija pertains to the giant ones, while Hebi is what you call the regular ones. At least that's what I've read. Lol.
Chapter 4: The Great Kyodaija
Sakura was pushed a little too harshly inside the car, landing almost face first on the car seat.
She tried to escape but the doors were locked and there were men stationed outside the car.
Sakura started screaming inside when she couldn't formulate any other means to escape, but she soon stopped when she was joined by the man with the scarred face—Ibiki.
At first Sakura was startled by what she saw, abruptly shutting her mouth because of the shock that dawned on her upon seeing the man's face. But her mind was frantically screaming 'escape' so she soon got over the shock, and started demanding answers from Ibiki.
"Who are you? What do you want from me? Let me go! I didn't do anything wrong!" Ibiki only looked at her, eyeing her from head to toe before he spoke with a sneer on his face.
"Tsk. He was right. You talk too much."
"Who's he? What do you mean! Who are you? Where are you taking me-mmphf!"
Sakura saw when Ibiki brought out a white handkerchief and covered her mouth with it. When his arms circled her, she fought—really fought hard because things like this always led to something so horrible that only thinking about it brought tears in her eyes. But the more she fought, the weaker she felt, until she realized that there was something that was sprayed on the handkerchief which made her eyes foggy, and her mind numb.
Sakura couldn't believe it. This had happened before. Why was it happening again? Wasn't once enough?
Unconsciously, Sakura started sobbing as she lost all feeling to her arms. She no longer had the ability to fight, even going as far as losing her voice because whatever chemical that was placed on the handkerchief was already taking effect.
'This isn't happening. Why is this happening to me? What did I do wrong?'
Sakura couldn't stop the tears now. All she could do was cry as she slowly lost consciousness in the arms of the man who abducted her.
Sakura stirred, feeling the low rumble on her body.
"What?" She whispered to herself as she slowly got up, feeling a little dizzy from how she was positioned on a...
"What the—"
Sakura's breath got caught in her throat when her eyes caught sight of the view before her. Her gaze was met with clouds, district lights, and the—moon?
"Wow!" She whispered as she stared at the full moon that was so huge she thought she could reach it with her hands when Sakura heard someone speak.
"Finally, you're awake."
Sakura whipped her head towards the direction of the speaker. She knew that voice. She had begged the gods to allow her to hear that voice again and see his face.
"S-Sasuke?!"
'Oh my god, I'm dreaming.' She thought as she took in the sight of the man casually sitting opposite her. He was clad in an expensive looking suit, while he held a goblet of wine on his left hand. Sakura felt her cheeks warm because of the way Sasuke looked at her with those mesmerizing eyes of his.
'Yes. This is definitely a dream. That or I'm already dead, and this is my heaven. Hmm. Right. I think I deserve to be in heaven.' She thought again.
Sakura then decided to clear her throat in order to finally ask the question.
"I'm already dead, am I?" Sakura asked which made the man before her chuckle.
She frowned.
"Why are you laughing? If this isn't heaven then where am I?" She demanded.
"In my private jet." Sasuke casually answered, swaying the goblet he was holding.
"P-private jet?"
Sasuke nodded, and Sakura couldn't help but gape at him because of what he just said.
"I apologize if you're feeling a little uncomfortable. We will be arriving soon." He smiled.
What? Arriving soon?! Where? In all of Sakura's existence, this was her very first time riding a plane—and it wasn't even any ordinary plane, it was Sasuke's private jet plane.
'How rich is this guy? Gods! Maybe he's really of royal blood.' She wondered.
Sakura was nervous, but at the same time, she felt excited. She had never thought that things would turn out this way.
Does Sasuke know about the scary man who kidnapped her from the ice cream parlor? Where are they going? How long had she been in this jet? Why does Sasuke own a jet, and what was she doing in here with him? But most importantly, who is Sasuke?
She remembered their conversation on her kitchen from the last time. She remembered him telling her that there were things that were better for her not to know, and so keeping that in mind, she asked the simplest question she could think of—hoping to get at least a proper and simple answer.
"Uhm, Sasuke? I-I can call you Sasuke, right? M-may I ask where we're going?"
"In a few minutes we'll be landing at Konohagakure's International airport." He casually answered.
"K-konohagakure?!" Sakura exclaimed, hand flying to her chest in order to calm the frantic beating of her heart.
Everybody knew where Konoha was located. It was the central business district of the Fire Country which was among the top three richest countries in the world. It was also considered as the largest capital among all of the nation's capitals, and she couldn't believe that she'd be able to set foot in a place known as the land of milk and honey because of its riches.
"Yes. Why? Haven't you been there before?"
"I-I have never even been out of Kirigakure my entire life! Who are you really?!" Sakura couldn't help but ask when she felt a sudden pull on her stomach and realized that the plane was about to land.
"You'll know once we arrive." Sasuke said, smirking at her as though amused by her total ignorance of the things that were happening.
When the jet finally landed and the doors opened, Sasuke got out of his seat and ushered Sakura towards the exit.
Outside, Sakura saw an assembly of men wearing uniformed black suits. They were all lined up on either side of the red carpet that went as far as her eyes could see. Eventually, it ended at the side of a limousine where another man was waiting beside the car door.
'Oh my god this is a dream. I really am dreaming.' Sakura chanted, still disbelieving everything she saw. But her thoughts were cut short the moment Sasuke took his first step down then airstairs...
"Welcome home, Uchiha-sama! Welcome to Konoha, Haruno-sama!"
If not for Sasuke's arms around her waist, she may have already fallen over the airstairs and broke her neck because of the thunderous greeting they received.
No one had ever attached such high ranking honorary in her name, but that was not what surprised her, it was how these men bowed their heads to Sasuke as they pronounced their final greeting.
"Welcome back, Lord of the Great Kyodaija Organization!"
'Kyodaija? Giant snake? What?!' Sakura thought.
Mind racing in panic as she tried to absorb everything that was happening around her. She looked at the man who held her by the waist. Seeing Sasuke stand before these people, it felt as though he had the whole world in his hands. That, and she saw the wicked glint that shone on his eyes.
'Oh god, what have I gotten myself into?' She gulped.
