Ello Govna'! How was your weekend? Mine was pretty good. I finally got over my fever and I'm feeling as good as new. I don't have much else to say...Anywho, this is just my make-up post for missing out on a whole week of writing. I'll post another chapter this week on either Thursday or Friday then I'll go back to my usual schedule of posting a chapter every six days. So here chapter 10! :D

Kabuto

He'd have to choose his words his words carefully but he'd finally caught her attention. The hardest part would be keeping it. One wrong move petite deranged woman would screw everything up. Her eyes darkened, he was losing her attention. He'd have to choose his words quickly.

"You better not be lying to me,"Sakura said in a cold voice as she eyed his wielded kunai. Kabuto followed her gaze and tossed his kunai near her feet when he guessed what she was thinking. He also tossed all of his other weapons near her feet and raised his arms above his head.

"Now's your chance, kill him!" Suichi and the others hollered from their cages.

"Do it, NOW!"

"Let me out and I'll kill him myself! ...maybe tossing all of my weapons wasn't such a good idea… Kabuto could almost see the wheels spinning in her head as she weighed her options.

"Lord Orochimaru took Sasuke on an excursion to another lai-"

"Take me there!" Sakura interjected with full interest.

"..I can't do that. But Lord Orochimaru will bring him back when they're done, then you'll be able to see him." Sakura continued to eye him thoughtfully.

"No, he's lying. Don't listen to him. Let us out!" The imprisoned creatures continued to howl but Sakura paid no attention.

"I promise. I will make sure you see him...just step away from them and I'll make sure you see him."

"Why should I trust you?"

"I know we're enemies, but I don't make a lot of promises. But when I do, I keep them". "He'll come right back here" Sakura asked for confirmation.

"Yes. All you need to do is to walk out of here, go to your room, and wait." Sakura dropped her arm down to her side. Kabuto let out of breath he didn't know he was holding. Even though he could still see a hint of doubt in her eyes he had managed to convince her. Sakura walked past, headed toward the doorway, and muttered,

"Lead the way."

"Come back here! Don't you dare leave! Get me the hell out of here!" Kabuto almost smiled in relief. He quickly picked up his discarded weapons.

"You think you've won don't you? I swear, one day I'll get out of here and I'll make you pay." Kabuto stood up and pushed his glasses up from the bridge of his nose and said,

"Well today's not that day." He turned off the light and closed the large door as the group's threats, insults, and howls of frustration filled the room. Sakura stood on the other side. Her face was purposely guarded, but Kabuto could tell what she was feeling. He walked down the corridor and Sakura followed.

"You did the smart thing. Releasing them would've raised hell." Sakura said nothing and walked on.

"They're dangerous that's why they're kept in there."

"I didn't ask you for an explanation," Sakura said briskly. Kabuto stopped by a random door when they finally reached the eastern wing. A look of confusion spread across Sakura's face.

"That isn't my room."

"No, it really is. It's your new, upgraded room. I made the proper tweaks to give you a comfortable living experience." He opened the door and motioned for Sakura to enter, she did so calmly and slowly. It was basically just the same room she previously had before only there was a futon instead of a bed and there was no desk or chair. The door was also much bigger and had a lot more locks and bolts.

"Hey," Sakura said as she turned to face Kabuto. But before she could even finish her sentence Kabuto had already closed the door and was locking it.

"Asshole!" Kabuto couldn't help the chuckle that escaped from his throat. Let's see you try to break out from there.
