She drifted in and out of consciousness laying in a room that was too dark to even see. But when she was conscious she would people around her speaking about her, at least she assumed it was about her as she figured 'she' and 'her' was addressed to Sakura.
Two men walked through a long hallway heading to the area their new captive would be staying. The taller of the men had dark hair almost black. She couldn't tell the face due to the fact she was slumped over his shoulder as if she were a sac of potatoes. But it was the man that walked next to him that she could hardly take her eyes off of. He was shorter than the one carrying her. He had very long black hair. He wore the Uchiwa fan on his back which is one reason Sakura couldn't take her eyes off of him.
"I brought her like you wanted, so you'll keep your end of the bargain and let me keep her?" The tall man spoke to the other. He seemed almost like he was in a hurry to keep her.
"An Uchiha never goes back on their word. You can keep her but when I say I need her you will listen to me and do as I say no questions asked. Got it?" Uchiha? Who was this man and why did he want her?!
"Yes master. As long as she belongs to me and not that Uchi-,"
SLAP!
"Don't you dare speak against the Uchihas. We were once a great clan. Next time you try to disrespect us..." The man got close to the others ear to whisper the next sentence. "I will not hesitate to kill you. Understood?" He quickly backed away leaving his back towards his companion.
"Ye-yes. Understood. Very sorry." The mans voice sounded so familiar to Sakura but before she could put a finger on it she passed out once again and the next time she would awaken she wouldn't hear any voices but her own because soon enough she was left alone.
Sasuke, Naruto, Hinata, and Kakashi made their way to the gates all geared for their mission.
"Does anyone even know where to start to look? She could be anywhere!" Naruto screamed to his teammates and girlfriend.
"I'm sure her scent isn't gone and we can easily pick it up. It's only been one day since she's been gone so it shouldn't be gone yet, I'll summon Pakkun and we can follow him." Kakashi spoke and everyone nodded. Quickly so they could take off Kakashi did the hand signs and soon stood three ninja dogs, one of which was his trusty hound Pakkun. "I need you to find Sakura's scent. She can't have gone too far." He bent down and put Sakura's headband in front for Pakkun to get a whiff.
Immediately he turned around an started to point North West to where they were standing and took off. Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other quickly and nodded and took off after the dog with Kakashi and Hinata following suit.
They were fast. Sasuke almost passed Pakkun wanting to hurry and find Sakura. He was never going to let her out of his sight when he gets her back. How could he be so stupid to even be around Karin after her stunt the first time around Sakura? He loved her for Kami's sake. Why did it feel like everything he ever loved was taken away from him? First his clan, then Itachi, now Sakura? No. Not this time. He will make it on time to save her. He had to for his sake. He wouldn't go through another funeral especially that of the love of his life.
"Sasuke hold on! You're fixing to lose us!" Sasuke suddenly slowed down as he heard Kakashi yelling at him. He really did need to stop or he wouldn't find Sakura. "Do you have any idea of anyone who'd wanna take Sakura?" Kakashi looked over at Sasuke then to the rest of group.
"Who wouldn't want Sakura-chan! She's a beautiful, strong kunoichi who would make a perfect wife!" A sweat dropped off Naruto's face when he immediately saw the ever effective Uchiha death glare. "Eh he he..."
"W-well that's kind of true Naruto-kun...But how would people know to come at this specific time? How would they of known of her weak state at that particular moment?" Hinata spoke true words. Who would've known that she was not in the best shape? Or by chance did they have that great of luck? Doubtful.
Sasuke looked back to their trail they were on. Many idea's flowed through his head. Who would've taken Sakura...Then it hit him. Hit him harder than a chakra filled punch from the pink haired beauty.
"Madara..." Sasuke's voice was just barely above a whisper, but Kakashi heard along with Pakkun.
"Why would Madara want Sakura?"
"I left him for her. Y'all have yet to realize that right before she woke up everything I did was for HER. And everything I do now is for HER. But now I have a feeling that Madara knew she was pregnant and wanted our unborn child from her. But he more than likely knows she lost it..." The thought brought his head down in shame, he wished he would've known and he would've protected them with all that he had. "he probably thinks that he can get her pregnant with his child and I'll be dead before he goes through with that."
"Do you know of any hideouts that he may have that are in this direction?"
"Yes. I do." Now knowing who took Sakura, Sasuke took off leaving his team many meters behind. 'I'll find you Sakura even if it cost me my own life.'
Sea-foam eyes stared at the man whom was now standing before her. Madara Uchiha, the man whom sent Sasuke to destroy the Leaf and kill all those who Sasuke holds dear. And the man who soon would die at the same man's hand for taking her in such a sensitive time.
"I see my little cherry blossom is awake." The familiar Uchiha smirk graced his lips. Disgusting that its on him and not Sasuke.
"What the hell do you want from me?" Sakura some how spoke between gritted teeth.
"Oh Sakura...ha ha ha You don't seem to understand the curse that brings upon anyone who is intertwined with the Uchihas." Madara walked up to Sakura as she laid against a wall staying far away from him as possible. "You were pregnant with an Uchiha child were you not?"
She bit her bottom lip trying to hold in the tears that soon would seep from her eyes. She was pregnant with her Sasuke's child...but SHE lost it. The thought of losing a child that could've been would destroy any woman.
"As I thought. But you were weak. You couldn't hold onto it. You just let it slip away. How pathetic." Madara crouched in front of her and lifted her chin until she was looking at him. "I wonder if holding my child would you be strong enough since all you would be doing is being bed ridden."
A sign of horror came across her face. 'No! He wouldn't...' And as if he could read her mind he replied, "Oh but my sweet, sweet blossom, I would be sure for someone with your perfect chakra control as yourself to be the mother of my child. You will soon realize what true Uchiha clan is supposed to be like. Strong and prideful, you will start a whole new generation with my seed." He dipped his face down to her ear "And I will be sure you enjoy every second of it. Even if I have to force myself onto you." He could hear Sakura's strong heartbeat as she was now frightened. Madara pulled away with a full on smile on his face pleased with her reaction. "I will return tomorrow. I will have someone come for you and bring you to where you will stay for now on. So for tonight sleep well." He got up and started to walk to the door of the cage he was keeping her in before last looking at her and saying.
"Good night. Sakura-chan" She heard laughter down the hallway and she soon busted out into tears.
Sasuke stood in front of the one hideout that he was positive Sakura was being held in. Minutes as he was staring searching for a chakra signature he found one, very faint but it was there.
The rest of his team had just shown up and Kakashi walked up to Sasuke and put a hand on his shoulder getting his attention. "Sasuke, we don't need to rush in there in case that isn't Sakura that is in there."
"Yeah, we should make a plan." Hinata's soft voice spoke.
"Fine, and what do you purpose?"
"Naruto and Hinata I want y'all to check and see if there is a back way and Sasuke and I will check through here. Get out your communicators so we can all keep in touch. Reach someone immediately when you find something. Now move out!" Just like that all rushed to where they needed to be.
Sasuke crashed into the doors to the hideout and immediately went to the dungeon where they would keep their captives. "Naruto have you found anything?"
"No, but I think Hinata just did..." Naruto walked over to where he saw Hinata crouched.
"It looks like some sort of self-made escape route...as if someone was under here and succeeded." This perked Sasuke up and he took off to the two. He knew about that and some how he forgot among knowing this information. He rushed until he found his blonde best friend and looked where they we examining.
"It seems someone has covered it over with dirt to make it look like it was never here. Naruto would you use some of your shadow clones and dig your way to see if you can see or even hear anything?" His calm request was filled with such sadness and hope for his love to be down there.
"Sure, don't worry Sakura-chan! I'm coming for ya believe it!" He did quick hand signs and soon enough there were 5 Naruto clones and an approaching Kakashi. "Alright lets dig!" all jumped for the tiny section of dirt and they all dug and none more than a minute the real Naruto could see darkness with no dirt. "Hey I'm in!"
Sakura sat crying in her little corner pallet that she had made for her bed. She wondered if her Shishou had sent out a search party for her. Her friends were all that she could think about...then there was Sasuke...
She still couldn't handle thinking of him after seeing his old red headed teammate lip locked with him. She knew he wouldn't cheat on her...at least she would hope that he wouldn't.
Karin didn't mean a thing to him. He left her and his team. For her. She smiled at that thought.
He wanted HER for the revival of his clan. No one else, just her.
He risked being put to death by the elders for her. Thankfully they didn't do that but allowed him to live with her and rebuild his family with her specifically.
Everything he would do seemed to be for her. And she could forgive him for what she saw. Sakura would see him, she knew she would. She would see him again and run into his awaiting arms and-,
"Hey I'm in!" That voice...it sounded so familiar. Why wasn't she recognizing voices? Wait...that's Naruto!
"Naruto! Naruto I'm here! Help!"
"Naruto! Naruto I'm here! Help!"
Naruto heard her voice and got excited wiggling around in the whole and soon him and his clones fell through the hole and were in a room that seemed to be right next to Sakura's.
"Sakura-chan we're here! I'll save you!"
"Dobe I want to save her!" Naruto smiled at his best friends behavior for Sakura.
"Sakura-chan how much chakra do you have?" Naruto spoke leaning his ear up against the wall to hear his best friend better.
"Not much but enough to break this wall down...but there is something you need to know-,"
"Can't talk now! We need to get you back NOW!" before Sakura could finish what she was about to warn them she took the chance and got up, channeled all the chakra she could muster and punched the wall.
The ground everyone stood on rocked and Hinata lost her balance and fell on her butt, but Sasuke helped her up.
"Sakura-chan!" Naruto hugged the weak Sakura and signaled her to get on his back.
"Naruto I really need to warn you about-,"
"Sakura we know that Madara took you." He jumped up and they both started to wiggle through the whole until they got onto the surface. Sasuke and Kakashi helped pull them out and Naruto ran into Hinata's arms.
"Sakura..." Said girl turned and saw the man she couldn't stop thinking about. Tears threatened to trickle from her eyes and she ended up giving in and they poured from her tear ducts.
"Sasuke-kun..." He noted the way she said her name and ran to take her into his arms.
"I missed you so much...please forgive me...please just please don't leave me alone..." A few tears came from surprisingly Sasuke's eyes and Sakura looked at his face and kissed his passionately.
She took his face into her small, delicate hands and kissed him with all she had built up inside of her since seeing what she saw last time she laid eyes on him.
"I forgive you for everything. I promise to never leave you as long as I shall live..." she whispered those words into his ear.
"Sakura-chan, uhm I-I'm sorry for interrupting your moment b-but I wanted to tell you I took care of that Karin girl for you..." Hinata's face turned red with embarrassment. She still couldn't believe she had done what she did, but I guess what's done is done and couldn't come back from that.
"Hinata? You serious?" Sakura looked at her stunned, but very much impressed that she would do something like that.
"Sh-she hurt you...That's what best friends do right?" She smiled and without knowing it Sakura crashed into her giving her an almost bigger hug than Sasuke gave her not moments ago.
"You are the best friend I could've asked for. Thank you."
"Oh, well now isn't this a sweet little moment." All heads turned towards the voice that seemed to be coming from the darkness of some trees. "So touching and yet, so revolting." The man took steps out into the light and all saw who it was. Hinata gasps, Kakashi got in a fighting stance, Naruto turned angry, and Sakura became scared.
"Kenshi..."
"It's good to see you again my cherry blossom, long time no see since I've been dead and all thanks to you."
A/N WHALE THEN I've been working on this and wanted to make it better than these past chapters. Not really sure how I feel about it yet. Feels a bit rushed to me. But tell me if y'all liked it!
Until next time!
