Disclaimer - I do not own Naruto.
Authors note - (I had a wonderful time at my SLS encampment! Totally awesome!) This chapter is pretty graphic, too...or at least as graphic as I'll allow myself to write. I'm no good at writing fight scenes so this was a little complicated for me to write. I'm actually really unsatisfied with this chapter in just about every way. I swear that the last chapter will be better (even though my ending will most likely suck.) Okay! Thank you for the butt-load of reviews! Holy crap. And big thanks to InuKagzLoverrr for the big in-depth review about my story. What you thought of it, my mistakes, etc. Wow. So this chapter dedication (though there's nothing special about it really) goes to all of you lovely reviewers. For not only taking time out of your life to read the story, but to actually write a review for it, too. Without all of you, I wouldn't have this many!
Sakuras' eyes fluttered open moments after she was knocked back by Orochimaru. Her head was throbbing and felt like it was bleeding from the connection with the wood and metal handle. She moaned from the pain and her eyes took what seemed like minutes to focus back together. When she was finally able to see clearly again she felt her body become cold as she witnessed a horrifying sight. She wasn't sure if she was to scream or throw up for this. Orochimaru was on top of Sasuke as he touched, licked, and kissed Sasuke all over his body.
Sasuke was withering around like a snake. His body moving in all directions as he tried to push off the heavy man on top of him. He looked sick and in so much pain and it made Sakura cringe when they made quick eye contact. She covered her mouth to hold back the vomit that she was sure would come through. As Sasuke dug his nails into the carpet to brace himself for what Orochimaru was going to do next, Sakura finally screamed.
It made Orochimaru stop. He smiled at her as he still pinned down the struggling Sasuke. "If you just be patient, you'll be next." He hissed at her playfully before going back down to Sasuke.
She couldn't move anymore. The scream took every ounce of energy she had. Orochimaru knew that, why else would he not tie her up? He knew she was weak. She began to cry, unable to control all the tears that fell down her face. She only seemed to move her mouth, which trembled or pursed together when Sasuke would scream. Her voice was weak and she couldn't continue making noises to attempt to help him. Sakura's teeth bit into her bottom lip and dug as hard she could go as Orochimaru slipped Sasuke's pants down to his knees. Her heart was pounding.
This is it. She screamed inside her mind. Orochimaru is going to rape Sasuke and I can't do a thing to help him. Way to go Sakura. I'm so weak I can't even yelp.
As Orochimaru began to linger his fingers around Sasuke's boxers, her lip began to bleed and her mind panicked more.
Move it Sakura! Move!...Move...Open your mouth...Move...Open it more...Scream again! Sakura struggled to do her own orders. Her mouth opened but no sound came out. Not even a faint whimper. She was running out of time. Sasukes boxers were now down with his pants and Orochimaru was beginning to remove his own. Scream! Scream! Scream!
There was a loud bang that shook the walls of the room. Another followed.
"What the hell?" Orochimaru yelled, stopping himself while in the middle of flipping Sasuke onto his stomach.
To the shock of everyone within the room, the door burst open. Tsunade's fist foot high in the air from completing her side-kick that knocked open the door. Her eyes were full of anger, her hair wild as if she had not brushed it in days, she breathed heavily as she brought her foot down and took a small step into the room. The veins in her arms were noticeable, looking as if they were about to pop out any moment.
"Orochimaru!" She hissed out, her eyes giving Orochimaru a cold stare.
"Tsunade!" Sakura screamed out in shock, angry at herself that she could speak when it was nearly too late.
Calm as possible, Orochimaru let go of Sasuke, pulled up his pants and stood up to face Tsunade. "My, what an unexpected surprise Tsunade, dear." He smiled at her the same smile that sent chills down Sakuras body. "I thought you weren't allowed to come to Usui anymore after what happened to that stupid girl." He smirked and glanced down at Sasuke. "So what brings you here any way?"
While Orochimaru talked to Tsunade, Sakura took this as her chance to help Sasuke. She crawled over as quickly and quietly as she could and tried to untie the complicated knot of the measuring rope.
"I want you out of here, now." Tsunade said boldly. "Pack up your things and get out of my agency."
"Your agency? Sweet Tsunade, I could have sworn that you were on hiatus from your position." Orochimarus eyes shifted to Sasuke and with seeing Sakura trying to free him, lifted up his foot and did a kick firmly on her back that knocked the girl down with a sharp yelp and coughing. His foot remained on Sakuras back, pushing deeper as she tried to escape from the pressure. "And...if I remember correctly, you told me to take care of Usui while you were away."
"Take care. Not rape my models." Hissed Tsunade. "Get off of Sakura and release Sasuke. Then...get the hell out of my agency!"
Orochimaru pushed hit foot further down on Sakuras body. She began to scream in pain and Sasuke had began to swear violently at Orochimaru. "I think I'll stay, Tsunade. Sasuke and Sakura here have also given me their permission to use their bodies how I please in a trade for powder."
Another bang. Tsunade swung her arm to be a backfist and put a large hole in the wall beside her. "Now Orochimaru, out! Do not think that just because I am a woman, you can beat me."
Through the pain, Sakura struggled to move her arms from her awkward position and continue untying Sasuke. The knots were tight and the frustration of untying them increased as the seconds wore on. Her fingers felt like they were blistering from trying to pull the plastic apart. It was still slightly awkward for her to untie the rope as his lower half was completely bare and she had seen things of him that she did not want to see until they were older. Finally, the measuring rope was undone.
It stunned her, but Orochimaru had lifted his foot off of Sakura's back and at what seemed to be the speed of light, ran to Tsunade and was only centimeters from her face. His evil smile growing as he curled his fist and punched the woman in her face.
"Tsunade!" Sakura gasped out, covering her mouth.
Orochimaru lifted up his arm to punch her again but was stopped as Tsunade made the next move. Hitting Orochimaru squarely in the chest. The punching and kicking was fast and strong between the two. As Sakura sat there watching Tsunade defend herself, she was awed by how strong Tsunade truly was. It would never occur to her that the owner of a modeling agency could fight so well.
"Sakura." Sasuke hissed, his pants now back around his waist. "I want you to try to slip out and get more help. Call police and try not to be noticed by Orochimaru."
"B-but...what about you and Tsunade?"
"Never mind us, just get out while you still can." Sasuke picked up an old discarded beer bottle and gripped it firmly. "I'm going to help Tsunade."
Sakura looked at the only exit. How am I supposed to escape? Tsunade and Orochimaru battling right in front of it. Not to mention that wherever I move to, he's going to see me. Sasuke can't do much with a beer bottle...one stab is all that's good for it. "I can't get out, Sasuke. Orochimaru and Tsunade are in the entrance way. He'll see me if I move."
Sasuke let out an irritated hiss. "Then hide behind something!"
"Can't I help?"
"By doing what? Getting caught in a near-rape experience again? It's better if you hide. I don't want you to get hurt." Sasuke smashed the bottle against the ground and smashed the bottom half off of it to make it more like a knife.
Sakura scurried behind the desk Orochimaru usually sat at. She laid low. In a fetul position with her head up so she could see the fight. To keep warm, she had grabbed the jacket that was on the nearby chair and draped it over her back. From one of the pockets, a cell phone fell out and in front of the frightened teen. The perfect thing for a situation such as this.
The battle between Tsunade and Orochimaru continued. It seemed like it had been going on for half an hour when, glancing at the clock, it had been only three. Blood had sprayed the walls and floor from both opponents. Tsunade had a black eye and her nose was broken. She was near her end. Orochimaru seemed to be able to take more. Though he had more injures then Tsunade, he looked like he could continue.
"Sasuke, what are you doing?!" Shrieked Tsunade, dropping her guard as she watched Sasuke run towards Orochimaru.
The perfect chance for Orochimaru. Now that Tsunades eyes were on Sasuke, he made the final blow to Tsunade. A powerful kick to her head knocked her to the ground, unconscious. Orochimaru was swift, he turned around and grabbed the wrist that held the bottle and grabbed his other arm so firm that Sasuke was unable to stop Orochimaru.
"Do you think that just because Tsunade comes in that I was finished with you?" Orochimaru lifted his knee and jabbed it deep into Sasukes stomach.
Sasuke bent over and spat out, groaning in pain. "Bastard..." He groaned, lifting up his head to face Orochimaru. "I'm going to stop you if the last thing I do."
Orochimaru laughed. "I remember Tayuya and Kakashi saying similar things. You all are pathetic little beings." Using his strength, he pushed Sasuke onto the ground and got on top of him once more and began to hit the boy repeatedly in the face and stomach.
"Sakura! Get out of here!" Sasuke screamed at her.
Across the room, Sakura panicked. Dial Sakura! Dial! Call the police! If you do it now, you can still save Sasuke! She knew the number she had to dial was only three simple digits but it was complicated under pressure. "Nine...one...one..." She whispered as her fingers moved slowly across the numbers. The minute she heard the dispatch, she began to explain her position.
"Please, you've got to help me! I'm at Usui Agency. M-my agent...he's attacking us."
The dispatcher remained calm; as if she had heard it all before. "Ma'am, calm down. Is he attacking you at the moment?"
Sakura huffed angrily. "No, not me, but my boyfriend! He's attempted to rape us both. Have you sent help yet? We need it! The woman who already tried to help us is unconscious and I think she has some broken bones. Oh, please, send an ambulance won't you?"
"Calm down." The dispatcher said again. "What is your name, and can you describe the offender?"
Tears began to flow from Sakuras eyes as Orochimaru put Sasuke back onto his stomach. "Haruno Sakura. The offender is Mikatochi Orochimaru. Tall, maybe six-foot-two, pale, long black hair that goes down to his waist."
"I'm sorry, can you repeat the last part of your description? Your sobbing makes it hard to understand. You need to calm down." The dispatcher wasn't helping.
"Argh! Dammit all!" Sakura tossed aside the cell phone and ran to Orochimaru. "Get off of him!" Her arms wrapped around Orochimarus neck, she was behind him, choking him with the little strength she had in her body. "Get off of him!"
"Stupid bitch!"Orochimaru twisted his body and elbowed Sakura in the face that made he release her grip and fall next to Tsunade.
Sasuke began to scream again. Orochimaru began grunting. Sakura began to cry more as she tried to find something to hit Orochimaru with.
The bottle.
It had rolled near Sasukes feet. If she could somehow wound Orochimaru, she and Sasuke could drag Tsunade's body out the room and call for help.
You can do this Sakura. It's for Sasuke. She picked up the bottle and stood at a wobbly pose, raised her arm and slashed the jagged end of the broken bottle across Orochimarus back.
Orochimaru arched his back and screamed out in pain, turning towards Sakura, his hands outstretched and fingers already at a curl; ready to strangle her. Her body was numb, she couldn't find the will to move from her fear of him touching her again. She was too afraid.
"Sakura, move!" Sasuke pushed down on Orochimarus back and twisted him so he'd fall down on his back.
Sakura stumbled backwards and tripped, scooting her body away before she finally bumped into Tsunade. "Tsunade!" She cried, checking her pulse and breathing to make sure that she was for sure alive. Tsunade did not awaken but the little moans of pain from when Sakura touched her wounds was signal enough that she was alright for the most part.
Looking back at Sasuke, it seemed like an action movie before Sakura's eyes. The one she loved was mostly naked, freshly raped, and was now on the rapists stomach punching him to the point where his knuckled began to bleed. He screamed at Orochimaru, who didn't put much of a fight up. He only laughed. Sasuke continued to scream at Orochimaru and when his hands were sore, he grabbed one of Sakuras heeled shoes and began to hit his face with the tip. It made her stomach feel weak. Blood was spraying everytime Sasuke lifted up the shoe. Her face had fine lines of blood from Orochimaru. Her body was cold and all the sound in the world seemed to be gone with exception of her sharp breaking. Sasuke was using the heel of the shoe more like a knife now and was wielding it with both hands.
Orochimaru had finally stopped laughing and had quiet himself to only small grunting noises from being hit. His eyes looked like there was hardly any life in them and the skin that had been untouched by blood looked to be an even greater shade of white. Reality finally hit Sakura.
"Oh my gosh!" Sakura screamed. "You're killing him! Sasuke! Stop it! Stop!" She wrapped her arms around Sasuke and attempted to pull him off of Orochimaru. "If you kill him, you could go to prison! Please Sasuke, you don't want to get in trouble do you? Our addiction is enough to put us in jail, please! Sasuke, stop!"
Sasuke let out a long yell and jabbed the blood soaked heel into Orochimars eye. The squishing noise and the disturbing view of the shoe heel bearing the left eye of Orochimaru made her gag and groan. Sasuke pushed the heel in as far as it could go before it stopped.
"I-I killed him." Sasuke stuttered out.
The loud buzzing of the light ahead of them irritated Sakura enough to break the silence that needed to be kept.
"Tsunade's alive. I think she'll be alright."
Sasuke did not say a word back.
"I'm sorry for what he did, Sasuke." She said in a soft voice, knowing that her words were useless to him at the moment. It wasn't her body that had just been touched by Orochimaru in the most disgusting manor and what he had done to her that night was completely unimportant compared to what actions he took upon Sasuke. "I'm sorry I couldn't stop him in time. If I wasn't such a coward, I could have st--"
"Shut up."
Chills went through Sakuras body and she shut her mouth at his words.
He staggered as he stood up and walked over to her. She wanted to debate against him walking after what just happened, but she stayed silent in fear that he would snap at her again. She followed him with her eyes just to be safe, and was stunned to see that he stopped in front of her and dropped down to her level.
The sirens of the police and ambulance filled the empty room of Usui. Much too late to help either of them now. It was so silent that Sakura could hear the orders being given out about getting a stretcher prepared.
"Sakura." Sasukes arms were suddenly around hers and he brought her in to the most loving and warm embrace that she had ever been in with him. His body faintly shook as he used one of his hands to rub the back of her head like he was stroking an injured animal. "You're safe now. He won't touch you again."
"Oh Sasuke!" Sakura returned the embrace and clung to him. She cried again, not holding back any of them and sobbing loudly as she cried into his shoulder. "I'm so sorry." She rubbed her head against his neck and ran her hands up and down his back. His skin was cold and the hair on him was raised. She felt so awkward on some levels holding her boyfriend naked, but at the same time, she couldn't find a more right position. "Sasuke...we defeated the Devil."
They stayed in the position for minutes. The police finally arrived to the room and quickly took Tsunade out on a stretcher. She was not in any critical condition and she only suffered from a broken rib. While they examined Orochimaru, Sakura shook in the fear that he may still be alive. His body laid motionless as they pulled out the heel and lifted him into a body bag. The two of them were taken to the back of the ambulance and wrapped in large, heavy blankets while they waited for Kakashi. The police questioned them while they waited. She found it awkward to tell her story but left out the fact that she was anorexic. With the drugs, she was already in deep enough trouble with the law. Sasuke didn't let her tell much of their story. He seemed to know everything that happened to her. He finally confessed everything that he had been holding inside for years.
The replies that police gave them haunted her mind. "You two are possibly going to be charged for the cocaine...Mr.Uchiha, you did just kill a man...You witnessed a murder and did not report it? What's wrong with you?...The two of you are looking at rehab..."
"Sasuke, what are we going to do? You killed a man, we're probably facing a few years for the cocaine, what will our parents say? What about the media?" Sakura whispered, her head spinning from the events of the night.
He didn't say a word. He wrapped his arm around her shoulder again and brought her closer.
"Oh..." Sakura leaned her head on his shoulder and sighed. "I see..."
Authors note - I'm really upset with this chapter. I can not write fight scenes to save my life. Really. I'm awful at fighting scenes. They just don't come to me. I hate how OOC Sasuke is...you guys wanted me to give him some affection towards Sakura and it killed him. Omg...in the last chapter just wait until how he'll grow in his OOC-ness when I end it. The next chapter is our final chapter (throws pre-party confetti in the air) Nice big gooy SasuSaku moment to come in that chapter.
Thank you for reading.
