Chapter Seven: Sai's reminiscing Part Two
Flashback
Sai followed Sakura from school, hidden in the shadows, only making sounds when he wanted her to be scared. Lit by the glow of a few street lamps, he waited for the right time to make his move on her.
He stared hungrily at her as she began to panic now that he'd made his presence known, making a motion so slight with his hand that it went unnoticed. He knew that the picture he owned of the girl would never be as beautiful as what he was seeing right now.
Hearing her word something akin to " Can I help you?", Sai just stared at her; his smile twisting unnaturally until he saw two large hands wrap around her from behind, trapping her.
"So is she the one, Sai?," Kane asked. Seeing her fear was like the sweetest of flavors to him. Sai hoped that she would let that go after he had taken her.
"Yes," Sai replied.
The young man walked up to her, the smile still stretched wide across his face. His eyes roamed from her terrified face to her thin neck, pausing for a moment at her chest, before continuing down the rest of her body. Everything about her -from her slender frame, to the thin layer of sweat building on her pale skin- was enough to stir his lust.
Sakura struggled fruitlessly in Kane's grasp, trying to get free. "Let me go!," she choked. "I'm not 'the one'; I don't even know you!"
"It doesn't matter if you know me." Sai's voice was silky, and the look in his eyes made her cringe. "Let's go Kane," he said suddenly, looking at the man behind her.
"Hey, put me down!," Sakura shrieked as she was thrown over the thug's shoulder. "Help! Someone, please, help me!"
Sai walked in front of Kane as they made their way to the black car tucked out of sight farther down the street; the girl screaming hoarsely into the night sky, hoping someone would come and save her. Sai chuckled at the thought. He had made sure that no one would be on this street, at this specific time.
Heading directly for the driver's side, Sai called over the hood to his assistant." Hurry up Kane, get her in!" The other man nodded, shifting Sakura as he bent to open rear passenger side door. Neither had been expecting the girl to twist so suddenly, kneeing Kane in the stomach before head butting him. Something crunched sickly as Sakura was dropped back to the ground; Kane lifting both hands to his bloody face.
Cursed loudly at her, Sai scrambled around the car just as Sakura bolted. His hand lashed out to grab her but he missed, by a few miserable inches or so.
"Get back here!," he screamed in rage. Hissing as she continued to run, Sai ran for the passenger's seat, throwing open the door and sliding inside. "Kane," he ordered, "Get in now and chase her down!"
Kane wiped at his face messily, running around the other side of the car and jumping into the empty seat.
As the car leaped forward, Sai allowed himself a small smirk of triumph. His girl was fast, true, but she would never outrun a car. "Cut her off, Kane," the young man demanded, counting the blocks as Kane zipped dangerously through the empty streets. Sakura was well on her way to being home by now, but he was not letting her go so easily. The girl was his to keep.
No one could have her but him.
The entire car bounced as Kane swerved into a smaller rural street; the smell of burning rubber filling the air as the man twisted the wheel again sharply, forcing the car to screech to a hazardous stop, blocking the road. Not wasting a moment, Sai threw his door open, leaping out of the car just as Sakura turned the bend, still sprinting at full speed. Horror flashed in her green eyes a second before she collided with the gangster; Sai's arms clamping around her tightly as they fell back against the car. The smirk was present on his face again as he looked down at the terrified girl staring up at him, his hand snapping up and over her mouth, silencing her following scream.
"You should consider yourself lucky," he leaned down to whisper in her ear, "Anyone else who dared to assault me like that would be killed without a second thought."
Sai shoved her into the back seat, looking around quickly to see if anyone had been watching, before climbing into the back as well. Taking a few moments to first buckle in a struggling Sakura and then himself, the young man turned his attention to the window.
"Drive," he commanded in one word to his awaiting assistant. Kane nodded, before shifting gears and guiding the car out of the cramp side street.
Watching the scenery pass by, Sai let himself slip into an indulgent daydream, relishing the moment when him and his chosen one would finally embrace each other intimately. He was enjoying himself too until a voice piped up, dragging him away from his thoughts.
She'd given up. Slumped over weakly in her seat, Sakura glanced at the stranger sitting beside her, so calmly staring out the window as if he didn't have a care in the world. As if he had no qualms at all about the fact that he had randomly plucked a girl out of the streets...
"Why?"
The stranger turned to her, looking straight into her eyes and shrugged. "Because I chose you," he replied.
A chill ran down Sakura's spine.
"You chose me? For what?," she demanded, her anger rising alongside her fear.
Sai sighed. "You really should feel honored. Of all the girls here in Miami -and quite frankly, I could have my pick-I chose you. You're going to be my partner. My lover. You're going to be by my side everyday from here on in."
"You must be kidding." Sakura twisted uselessly in her seat, have hoping that a hidden camera would pop out from somewhere; assure her that this all had to be some sort of sick joke. "I'm seventeen; I'm still in high school. I-I-I'm going to college next fall." Her voice had raised an octave as disbelief turned to panic. "I can't be your lover, I don't even know you...," she ended weakly, tears beginning to fall down her cheeks.
Sai remained silent.
Trapped and beginning to feel the entire weight of her situation, Sakura turned to stare out the window, whimpering "Why me?" to the night sky.
End of flashback
Sai smiled as he thought back to that night. He had never told her the real reason, and he never would, until she said those words to him first. Making sure that he had all his clothes and papers packed up, the young man walked out of his room and down the hallways of the hide out. There was still the matter of the men he would need to select for this mission to take care of.
Sai looked at the folder that the master had given him. Most of the targets were from two rival gangs, called the Bloody Sharigan and Akatsuki, and he was under direct orders to kill them all.
He would need a worthy crew to handle such hits. Already Kane, Daiki and Taichi were coming; now he needed only eight more. But first, Sakura. She would be his again.
FLASHBACK
The car zoomed through the silent streets uninterrupted as Kane drove through red lights and stop signs; just as Sai had planned. Smirking to himself in victory, the gangster let his gaze drift over to his captive. His grin grew when Sakura turned her head away, unable to stand the feel of having her body so lecherously studied. Sai knew that the girl was very smart, so he would have to keep a eye on her until he could trust her, but for now he was content to just look at her. Having just come from school, Sakura was dressed in a simple short skirt and a button-up blazer. The young man didn't quite know what was under the blazer, but the way the clothes hugged her curvaceous frame made Sai harden. He really was ready to take her but he didn't want to her to hate him more than she already did.
It wasn't long before the car was slowing down; the vehicle turning into a tunnel. Kane turned off the engine as they came to a complete stop, climbing out of the car first.
"Welcome home," Sai whispered before her door was opened. Kane reached into the backseat, pulling Sakura out and throwing her over his shoulder again. The young man almost felt a bit sorry for his wife-to-be having to humiliated in such a way, but it was the safest place for her to be and it ensured that she wouldn't be able to escape any more.
"Take her to my room while I go tell Sanjuro-sama that it's done," he ordered of the subordinate. Sai paused as he moved closer to the pair, a hand resting on Sakura's head. Feeling around, Sai heard her moan in pain as his fingers pressed against a bump on her head. "Get her something to eat and some ice for that lump on her head."
Kane bowed and begin to walk away from Sai but paused when the young man called after him.
"And Kane," Sai added, "Make sure all of the phones are removed from my room."
Turning in the opposite direction, Sai wondered momentarily where Sakura's purse was, but as it wasn't all that important, he brushed the issue aside, continuing on to his boss's office.
End of Flashback
Sai rested his arms on the table as he scanned through some folders, looking over each file's credentials, searching for the remaining eight men he needed for this mission. From behind, he heard the door open up, interrupting him from his work.
"Sai," came his boss' voice, "Sorry but there is something that I would like you to do."
"What?" Sai asked, turning to face the other man.
"There is a mission that will need your expertise. It'll be long, so I've already cancelled the flight and re-booked it for next month. Before you say anything, this is an order, and I will add that waiting will make capturing Sakura again easier. If she believes that you will not find her, she will let her guard down... she will weaken. Make her think that you not coming so soon and you are sure to triumph," the older gangster explained with a grin.
Sai mulled over the words, noting that it was a good strategy. Nodding his head, the younger man smirked as he rose to his feet, heading for the small table on the side of the room set with tiny refreshments and a pot of coffee. "What kind of mission?," he inquired as he grabbed a plate.
"I'll tell you after you've eaten. Come to my office and we'll discuss the details." Turning, the older gangster left the room, once more leaving Sai by himself. Nibbling on a piece of meat, the youth thought back to that day when he went to Sanjuro's office after kidnapping Sakura, only to return to his room and find his wife-to-be on a phone with her mother. What followed next was a punishment that Sai was disappointed he had to give.
FLASHBACK
Sai walked into Sanjuro office after he heard a faint, "Come in", approaching the desk. He bowed at the waist before lifting his head once more." Sir, she's here now," he announced.
"Good" Sanjuro replied, not taking his eyes off of his work. "You are free until I call you."
Sai nodded his head, exiting the office and hurried back down the halls to his room and Sakura. Already, he was thinking of how to make the girl more comfortable and the best way for her to accept her new life willingly.
Coming up to his room, the young man heard faint whispering coming through the door. Sakura was talking to someone.
"Hello?"
"Mom?" Sakura whispered, elated.
Sai pressed his ear to the door, shocked. Her mom? How did she call her? Then the gangster remembered: Her purse. She must have hidden it from them, along with her cell phone. Gritting his teeth, Sai listened distractedly as an older woman's voice spoke up next.
"Sakura? Where the hell are you? Do you know how worried I've been? It's almost eight thirty..."
"Mom, I've been kidnapped," she interrupted.
"What?"
"I've been kidnapped! I left school around six, I was five blocks from home... Mom you've got to help me; call the police, anyone, please. I'm not sure where I am, but the car was black and it's parked in an underground tunnel. Please mom, help me..." Sakura had started crying, her voice rising as her fear made itself known again. "I don't know where I am...the guy's name is Sai, and they mentioned someone named Sanjuro. Please, mom..."
Enough was enough; she'd told her mother too much. The youth stormed into the room quickly, ripping the cellphone out of the girl's hand. Sakura screamed as she looked up and saw the rage on her captor's face, unable to flee as Sai grabbed her arm with his free hand. Sai was still holding her phone, and over her own terrified weeping she could hear her mother calling her name. Sneering as he put the phone to his ear, the gangster pulled Sakura closer, pinning her against his chest.
"I'm sorry mom," he said smoothly into the phone, "Sakura's been behaving very badly and needs to be punished, so she has to go now."
"Let my daughter go you bastard," Sakura heard her mother scream before Sai ended the call.
"I see where you get your spirit from," he smiled as he ran a hand down Sakura's tear-stained cheek. "But I meant what I said. You've been behaving very badly, and now you have to be punished."
Sai threw her onto the nearby bed, the rage that was in his eyes just moments before replaced by something else. By what, the girl wasn't sure, but it made her tremble as he stalked closer.
"Please, stop," she begged.
"Silly girl," her captor smirked, straddling her before whispering lowly into her ear, "I haven't even started."
His tongue traced the shell of her ear before sliding down the side of her neck. His breath was warm as he nipped at the heaving flesh, licking at each bite to soothe the irritation. Pausing for a moment, Sai studied the mark he gave her with pride, tracing the mark again with his tongue before moving back up to her trembling lips. He captured the soft petals against his own, kissing her furiously as both lust and rage made themselves present in the normally tender display.
Sai lick against her lips impatiently, wanting to taste her, but Sakura refused to give him entrance. With a growl, he forced his tongue through clenched teeth, scrapping his teeth along her mouth enough to get the young woman to gasp in pain. Immediately, Sai took the chance granted to him, sliding his tongue inside her mouth and plundering the moist cavern. He knew the thought of biting him was firm in Sakura's mind, but he also knew that she was slowly sinking into despair. There would not be much fight left in her.
Placing his hands on her breasts, Sai allowed himself a moment to enjoy their softness before he started ripping off her uniform's blouse. Beneath him, Sakura bucked and screamed, her body heaving under him as it was racked with loud, shuddering sobs. Almost surprised, Sai stopped his assault, withdrawing a little and staring down at the beauty beneath him.
Sakura didn't know what to think when her attacker paused, cupping her face in his hands. His thumbs wiped away her tears gently -her first indication that this stranger might just be human yet.
"Please, stop," she repeated weakly.
Sai considered her plea as his left hand rubbed her thigh, just below her skirt. Perhaps she'd had enough for today. Standing up, the young man walked over to a dresser, pulling open the top drawer and withdrawing a red nightgown. He returned to where Sakura was still laying on the bed, tears streaming silently down her cheeks.
"Put this on," he told her, tossing the gown into her lap. "I'm going to see what happened to your dinner in the meantime. I should be back in about ten minutes. Consider this your only warning as well: I will have no more of this disobedient behavior. If this gown isn't on by the time I get back, I will strip you down and put it on you myself. The easy way or the hard way - the choice is yours."
With that said, Sai turned and left the room, taking Sakura's cell with him.
As he had mentioned, the gangster returned ten minutes later, finding a smiling girl waiting for him and dressed in the nightgown as he had requested. "That's better. And look, you're even smiling," Sai nodded as he entered into the room, followed by a maid carrying a large covered tray. "Plotting my demise are you?," he smirked while the maid set the tray down; bowing and closing the door behind her as she left.
"Not at all," Sakura replied innocently. "Simply admiring your taste."
He patted the seat next to him and she sat down.
"I've been watching you for a few years; I like to think I've gotten to know your style. It's your taste that I wondered about."
Sakura tried desperately not to gag on so obvious a line. "You never did answer my question Sai," she met his black eyes with her own bright green ones, "Why me?"
Sai grinned, opened his mouth and shoved a piece of chicken into it.
End Flashback
Sai stood up and placed his dirty dishes in the sink, heading out of the room once he'd finished that task and down the hallways to Sanjuro's office. As he walked, he thought back to when he had explained to Sakura that she was his other half.
Flashback
"You're my other half Sakura-chan," the gansgter finally replied. "You're intelligent, you're attractive..." He traced a hand down her arm. "Flawless," he whispered admiringly. "You'll start training immediately. As a member of Kanpeki, my mate will have to be able to fight and if necessary, kill just as easily as I can. Then, once you've proven your worth, you'll have the honor of bearing my children."
She couldn't help but gag that time.
"What?" Sakura shouted, regaining control of her voice, "What do you mean children? I'm seventeen! I'm going to college; I'm not ready to start having children!" In her shock, Sakura forgot all about her resolve to be obedient. "You must be kidding, there's no way I'm having your children!"
"You will, and you'll have them when I determine you're ready. Forget about college Sakura; forget about anything you had planned for yourself before today," Sai commanded coldly. "You'll come to see that my plans for you are all that matters." He leaned in closely, his black eyes like bottomless pits, and Sakura saw her future fading into them.
"You have no free will anymore," he whispered, sending chills down her spine. "You are here simply because I choose you to be. Act up again and I might decide you're no longer worth the effort."
With that, he kissed her hard on the lips before once again leaving the room. The click of the lock sounded like a death toll in her ears. "You're planning again..." a smug voice invaded her thoughts. She looked down to find Sai grinning, "I'd try to stop that soon if I were you. For now I find it comical, but I can't guarantee I'll always feel that way.
End of flashback
The kidnapper loudly knocked on the door, patiently awaiting a response.
"Sai, you may come in," the answer came shortly.
Another stream of memories rushed to his head. This time, they were of the nights of Sakura's various attempts of escaping, and the one unfortunate incident that caused him to lose her, for four and a half years...
Only to discover that she had kids this time.
Flashback
Seeing the poor adolescent exhausted, it was enough for the tortuous fiend to leave the sanctity of shadows, pulling the girl towards himself by the waist.
"You're not going anywhere," he hissed in her ear, "what did I tell you would happen if you disobeyed me again?"
"Let her go, " Sakura heard a click at the door and saw Tagami standing just behind the violator with her gun pointed at his temple, "let her go now."
Smirking at the thought that the next punishment will have to be much more severe than the first one, the man let her go, watching her bolt out of the room as fast as she could.
Eight months passed quickly for Sai and the Kanpeki gang. They continued to search for new recruits to join the ranks, but Sai was more concerned to know what had become of Sakura. She had not been spotted since her escape. One of his few leads he had on the pink-haried girl was the high school where she would have to go in order to make up for the lost time, if she ever wanted to go complete her former life plans. From there, he was able to trace her to her new place of residence, setting up a trap to capture his runaway lover.
Laughing inwardly -this girl continued to misunderstand exactly who she was dealing with- the pale skin hid himself behind the door and enduringly waited for his escaped victim to come back home, throwing amused glances at the surprise he prepared just for the green-eyed teenager.
At long last hearing footsteps coming up to the door and a figure entering the house, he felt a rush; his prey was about to come back to its rightful owner.
"Mom, dad! I am ho…" the seventeen year-old threw off her shoes calmly, exhausted from a long day. Her serenity though was shattered as she stepped into the living room, finding both of her parents tied to two chairs and silenced with duct tape, "Oh, my god! What ha…"
"Sakura, get out of here!," the mother yelled out as her daughter removed the sticky silver piece off her moth.
"Yes Sakura-chan," the hunter decided to make his entrance as he closed the door with a loud creak, "How about we get out of here?"
Whirling around in horror, Sakura felt her legs betray her; falling down on her knees, desperately praying this to be some sort of a nightmare, the young girl did all she could to show no fear despite the malevolent shadow looming over her.
"What you do want from me?" she asked with a breaking voice, tears beginning to slowly run down her cheeks.
"When are you going to get it?," Sai sighed, "I don't want anything from you. I simply want you."
"Leave my daughter alone you bastard!," her mother screamed, fiercely trying to free herself.
Sai's smile alone was making Sakura more than nauseous.
"I've said it before and I don't feel like repeating myself over and over anymore," the man rubbed the side of his forehead with a sad look on his face, shortly smirking from a tiny realization, "I see where you get your fight from but unfortunately for old mother and father, if you don't come with me now, I will have them both killed."
"N-n-no! No! You wouldn't ...," Sakura gasped, covering her mouth with both hands as gruesome horror bashed at her soul.
"I would. Daiki," the gang leader loudly called over his shoulder, "Please come out and show the reluctant Miss Haruno what awaits her parents if she disobeys me."
A large blonde goon of a man, holding a semi-automatic rifle, kicked the door wide open and stepped into the room, grinning at the three showing off a mouth full of gold teeth.
"Sakura," the mother shouted looking to her baby girl, "Don't do it, we'll be fine. Do not go back with him!"
"Daiki ..." Sai didn't have to give his underling the rest of the command. The thug nodded, lowered his gun and without any hesitation what so ever, killed the brave woman.
"No!" Sakura bolted towards the drooping body but the gangster callously grabbed her by the arm and pulled the hysteric girl out of the room.
"You murderer!" She said, sobbing, as he dragged her into the master bedroom. Throwing his intended onto the mattress, the Sai forced himself onto the resisting female and began ripping her clothes off; his shortly following. Feeling waves of lust only getting stronger, it became harder and harder for him to refuse the sultry shaking body that teased his and soon enough he mercilessly pounded the abused girl, violating her even further.
"Ungh!" the rapist groaned, exploding inside of the desecrated womb. With a grunt, he climbed off the trembling student, who stared unseeingly up at the ceiling above.
"Ready?" Putting on the last of his clothing, Sai smiled at her.
Before she could respond to him though, a sound drifted through the walls; loud and wailing. Sirens!
"Shit!" Sai cursed. "Boss, c'mon, we've got to go!," Daiki called nervously, banging on the closed door.
"Gotta go," the young man calmly turned to Sakura, "Please don't try anything foolish like running away. I will find you and then I'll have to punish you for this recent trangression."
With those words, the gangster gave her one last kiss and dashed out of the room.
Time passed as usual, with Sai finding himself preoccupied with the gang and Sakura taking the small opportunity to run again. She was out of his reach for nine months, but soon he would have her again and this time he'd be able to punish her appropriately -without any interruptions. The young man felt jittery with excitement at the fun prospect. After all, it was necessary that Sai instill the knowledge into Sakura that she could not possibly hope to escape him.
"Sir", one of the workers called from the far corner of the room, "we found her!"
"Where?" Sai quickly walked up to him, eager to find out the details he so desired.
"She is in Florida with that woman called Tagami, a police officer," he replied, typing and printing out the directions to her home and giving it his superior, "Here, sir."
"Good," the black-eyed man smirked as he made his way down the halls.
It was of great shame to him that he couldn't go himself; the mission he was assigned took priority. Instead, he decided to get someone not only trustworthy but also experienced in these sorts of things and Sai knew just the two people that could do the deed. Gaika and Raika, a brother and sister duo he would sometimes call on for a favor now and then:
"Gaika, Raika"
"Boss," The sister replied.
"I require both of you to do something for me."
"Sure, what is it?," the brother asked with climbing interest in his voice.
"My lover is to be returned to me." Sai gave them the paper and went on to execute his own task.
After two weeks of impatient waiting, the siblings finally came back:
"Where is Sakura?," Sai demanded the moment he set eyes on the goons.
"Sorry, boss," Gaika answered slowly, "Someone told them that we were coming and she got away from us with two bundles that we couldn't see. But that cop that was with her is dead."
"Good... she will never be in my way again." Somewhat calmer after finding out that they didn't come back quite as empty-handed as they seemed to, Sai pressed them for more information. He expected that this wasn't the only bit of good news they had. "Now, where is Sakura?"
"She's," the female paused and lowered her head, "We don't know."
This was not an answer that the gangster wanted to hear. "You are dismissed," Sai coldly ordered, turning away from the siblings before he carved his outrage into their flesh.
It took more time to locate Sakura again; time that should have been spent with the young woman warming his bed at night and not with him chasing her down constantly. Eventually though, Sai did discover where Sakura had taken to hiding now. And when the time was right, he made his move.
There was no one around to hear the leaves crunching under his feet as a lone man made his way to a cheery little house. Walking to the side of the beige stucco, he pulled out his knife and cut the phone lines.
"There will be no help this time," he smirked and looked for an open window.
Silently, the stalker pushed the window open enough to haul his slender frame through. Lightning flashed behind him, revealing a sparsely decorated room. A wicked grin painted itself on the pale face when children's laughter reached his ears. Sneaking into the hallway, he stopped at one of the open doors. The room was painted pink, its space filled with dolls and stuffed animals.
"Hm, a girl …" the next doorway led to another room, this time painted red. The blue blanket hanging off the bed was covered with cars and rocket ships, "... and a boy."
He seethed as he continued down the hall but when he heard a woman's voice, her voice, rage lit his eyes as the face still wore a smug expression. At long last, the search was over. Four and a half years it may have been, but he had found his prey once again. Too bad she had never heeded his warning. In his triumphant rush to reach the source of their voices, the man did not see the dump truck in the middle of the floor until the little toy went clattering on down the hall; kicked forward by the stranger's momentum.
Cursing, he hopped up and down, nursing his stinging toe. When the perpetrator opened his eyes again, he found himself staring into the face of a pink haired little girl, a miniature version of his dearest victim.
The terrified kid ran into a brightly lit room screaming off the top of her lungs:
"Mommy!"
"Shimatta," he muttered, following the child.
There she was, standing in the middle of the kitchen, a look of surprise on her delicate face. The green eyes staring at him wide and disbelieving. Sai crossed his arms and relaxed in the doorframe.
"Sakura," he nodded casually, "Were you ever planning to fill me in on the secret? When exactly were you going to let me know that I'm a father?"
Tears filled her eyes as she shook her head, still unable to process that the one who nearly destroyed her over so many times was standing there in front of her.
"H-how? How d-di-did you f-find me?"
"Poor Sakura," he chided, straightening his stance, "You're supposed to be intelligent. Did you never figure out that as a member of a gang like Kanpeki, I will do whatever it takes to find someone?"
"Come," Sai beckoned, holding out his hand, "Come with me now and you'll suffer no punishment. Make things difficult, and, well, I can't guarantee that my kunai won't slip."
"Never!," the woman ferociously hissed, grabbed her cell phone and handing it to the little girl cowering behind her. "Taytai, grab Ryuu and go hide; call the police. Remember how mommy taught you? Make sure you give them our address."
"Hai!," her baby whispered in fear, eyes and soul overflowing with horror. She grabbed her little brother who was crouched behind the kitchen counter and they ran in the opposite direction, straight into the bathroom.
Once she heard the click of the lock, Sakura remembered to breathe. The mother balled her hands into fists, never looking away from the black eyes of the man who had terrorized her for so long.
"Sakura-Chan, you won't get away this time," Sai said, taking a step towards her.
"We'll see about that!" She flew at him, ready to give up her life for the frightened kids. She felt her hand make contact with his face, and watched him stagger slightly.
"You've kept up your training," the gangster grinned, spitting blood onto the floor, "So have I."
She attempted to charge him again but Sai blocked the vicious attack, swept her legs out from under her and watched as the poor female fell face-first to the floor. In pain, she slowly rolled over to find him standing over her, kunai in hand.
"I told you not to make things difficult. I told you weren't going to get away this time." He raised the knife to deal the decisive blow, when the sound of the sirens blessedly rendered through the night air.
"Looks like I have, Sai." The green-eyed woman contemptuously smirked.
"For now, perhaps. Don't get comfortable in your lie, Sakura," Sai hissed, glaring down on Sakura. Quickly running to the sliding doors, her stalker disappeared, leaving one last reminder before blending in with the shadows, "You belong to me. You'll realize that soon enough."
