Chapter 7: Escape

Hinata looked up through her swollen eyes, she had been slowly tortured for what seemed like days. The general tried over and over to pry information on Konoha out of her, but she was loyal, not a word was uttered from her.

The only sounds that came from her were the agonized screams, her eyes were swollen and made it hard to see. Her shirt was ripped off, leaving her in her chest bindings and pants, she had no idea where her vest had gone, but she assumed he destroyed it. Hinata had cuts, bruises, and welts littering her body, he had used a leather belt and whipped her back, he had slowly sliced her body with a machete.

He had used electrocution, he tried to drown her, and he burned her to the point her skin had boils, some places on her skin was black and the burnt skin flaked off every now and then. The general had used almost every method he knew, but Hinata never spoke, she stood strong.

The general looked at Hinata and smirked maniacally, "Don't worry, little Hyuga. I still have one trick up my sleeve." Hinata tried to peer at him through her blackened eyes, but he was blurry and she couldn't focus, the pain was excruciating and it took all her might to not scream and cry for mercy, to give away all of Konoha's secrets.

The general grabbed Hinata's wrist and unchained her from the wall, he flung her onto the steel operation table and cuffed her wrists and ankles. The general grinned at her and stood at her side, his hand flicked over her chest bindings. Suddenly a kunai appeared in his hand and had ripped through her bindings, Hinata's swollen eyes widened in shock and fear.

'No, no, no, no...' " "NO!" The general peered at her face with a shit-eating grin on his face, "Are you ready to talk, darling?" Hinata trembled, tears finally streamed down her bloody, bruised cheeks. "N-Never... You- you can beat m-me to a pu-pulp... Yo-You can r-ra-rape me, but I wi-will NEVER talk." The general shrugged, a nonchalant look at his face.

"Have it your way."

In Konoha

A crowd gathered around the gates of Konoha, all trying to see what had everyone else so riled up. Between the village and the forest, four ANBU were holding down a screaming Kakashi. "LET ME GO! GODDAMNIT LET ME GO SAVE HER!" Kakashi thrashed around violently, trying to pry the ANBU off of him.

Kakashi was radiating off killing intent that made most of the villagers fall to their knees, even the ANBU had trouble not letting go of the crazed Chunin. Finally, Kakashi had a split second where all the ANBU had lost their grip on him, he began sprinting towards the forest with superhuman speed.

He almost made it to the tree line, but Minato appeared before him. "Kakashi! Stop this now! You need to calm down, I've already sent out a squad to rescue her." But this only made Kakashi angrier, his glare hardened and more killing intent poured out of his body. "Minato-sensei, move."

Minato shook his head, meeting Kakashi's glare head on. Minato quickly disappeared and reappeared behind Kakashi, before the Chunin could register what happened, Minato knocked him out. Minato caught Kakashi's limp body and stared at his face.

"What is she to you, Kakashi?"

In Iwagakure

The general was licking and biting Hinata's neck, leaving hickies on her skin. He bit down where her neck met her shoulder and began to draw blood, Hinata screamed for him to stop, but her cries were ignored by the psychopathic general.

Tears flowed freely from Hinata's blackened and abused eyes, streaming down her bloodied, swollen cheeks. Her hair was matted with dirt and dried blood, hanging around her face like a curtain. The general moved next to her ear and whispered, "Here's the fun part..." his fingers slipped in the waistband of her Jounin pants and began to tug on them.

Something snapped inside Hinata, rage boiled through her. The tears stopped and her hands balled into fists and she began to pull them upwards, in one fluid motion, Hinata broke both chains on her wrists and made a chakra blade on her finger tips.

She swiftly sliced through the general's neck before he could tear off her pants, the man fell to the ground clutching his neck. Blood squirted from his wound, and he soon stopped moving, Hinata broke the chains on her ankles and approached his unmoving body cautiously.

When he made no move of getting up, Hinata felt his wrist and found that there was no pulse. She sighed in relief and looked around the dimly lit room, she saw her torn chest bindings and tried to salvage them as much as possible. Luckily, they covered her breasts enough to pass as acceptable, unluckily, her shirt was torn to shreds with no way to fix it.

Hinata looked at her wrists and found that the chain was still attached to the iron cuff on her right wrist, the chain was long and would drag, Hinata didn't have the power to tear it off so she wrapped it around her forearm and walked towards the door.

Slowly opening the heavy door, Hinata peered into the hallway. When she decided it was clear, she quietly stepped into the hallway and began walking as fast as she could, she held onto the wall for support and limped her way through the well-lit corridor.

'Luckily he didn't try to tamper with my eyes, but still, I don't have the chakra to activate my Byakugan... I guess I'm doing this by instinct.'

Hinata sighed once more and looked up, the hallway split off she looked to the left and right and decided to go left. She cautiously turned the corner and began limping down the hallway. Soon, doors were on the walls of the hallway, Hinata didn't have the bravery to open one, but tried to continue on without passing out.

Hinata passed one door that had hushed whispers coming from it, she tried her hardest to be quiet and walk as fast as she could, but right as she passed it hands shot out, dragging her into the room.

In Konoha

Kakashi woke up and found himself in the hospital, he looked around the plain white room and saw Obito and Rin standing next to his bed. They both smiled at him, but Rin spoke first, "Are you alright, Kakashi?" The silver haired male only nodded curtly, a solemn look in his eyes.

Obito growled and glared at Kakashi, "What the hell, Kakashi?! You try to take off after hearing the news?! What is wrong with you?! I thought you were the rational one out of all of us, even I knew that if one of us went, we would attract attention to ourselves and put Hinata in more danger than she's already in!" Kakashi looked down, but there were no words from him.

"Whatever... Let's go, Rin." Rin nodded slowly and the two walked out of the room, leaving a mourning Kakashi by himself. Kakashi stared at his lap and thought of Hinata, before he knew it, a few tears fell from his eyes onto the blanket that covered him.

"Gomenasai, Hinata..."

In Iwagakure

Hinata wriggled out of the hands that held her and whipped around, she saw two more Iwa ninja and fear coursed through her, she had no chakra or weapons... Unless...

Hinata unraveled the chain on her arm and began swinging it around, she flung at one of the ninja, he tried to dodge, but the chain whipped him on the side of his head. The ninja fell to the ground from the force of it, Hinata shakily turned to face the other one, only to see him already unconscious.

Hinata looked around the room in confusion and noticed three more presences in the room, she began to limp towards the door as fast as she could, but a voice called out to her, "Hinata-sama, please do not run. We are here to rescue you." Hinata slowly turned around and saw three leaf ANBU standing side by side.

She sighed in relief and gave a small smile, "Arigatou, minna-san..." The ANBU in the middle, the cat, nodded curtly, "It's no problem, do you need me to carry you?" Hinata shook her head and forced a bigger smile on her face.

"No thank you... I do not wish to be a burden..." But right as Hinata said that, she collapsed. Her tired legs finally gave way and sent her towards the stony floor. The cat ANBU appeared under her in a flash before she hit the ground, he held her bridal style and looked down at her, "Gomen... Cat-sama..." Cat shook his head and watched as her eyes closed slowly.

He turned to his comrades and nodded, the three body flickered out of the base and next to the gates leading out of Iwagakure. They swiftly took to the trees and ran full force towards Konoha, it would take about ten hours to get back to Konoha without breaks.

-Time Skip-

Kakashi walked towards Minato's office, wondering why he had been summoned. He walked in the office and what he saw almost made him cry, Hinata's unconscious form was being held by a cat ANBU, her skin was littered with bruises, burns, welts, and hickies. Her chest bindings were barely on there, seeing as they were almost shredded. Her left cheek was swollen and she had two black eyes, dried blood matted her hair and skin along with grime and dirt.

Kakashi heard the office door open once more and two shocked gasps emanated from the people, Kakashi turned and saw Rin standing with Obito, both pairs of eyes fixed on Hinata's limp body.

Tears sprang from Rin's eyes, "Hi-Hinata-chan...?" Her voice was hoarse and shaky, she cracked and fell to the floor, her face in her hands. Obito just stared blankly at Hinata, as if processing if this was real or not. Finally, Obito dropped down besides Rin and hugged her tightly, muffling his cries.

The cat ANBU stared at the tree, eerily silent, when he spoke his voice was deep and raspy, "She's not dead, although she is in critical condition and needs to be escorted to the hospital immediately." Minato nodded at him and Cat disappeared with Hinata.

Kakashi turned and sprinted towards the hospital, tears threatened to fall, but he quickly wiped them and continued running. He made it just in time to see Hinata being wheeled into the operating room, he was shocked to see the legendary Sannin, Tsunade Senju, running alongside the gurney barking orders, but he knew she was the best medic nin in all the five great nations, so he trusted her to heal Hinata.

Kakashi sat on one of the benches and stared at his hands, his mind racing, worrying about Hinata.

'Thank Kami she's alright...'
