Chapter 28 – Mission Failure or Success? Where is Sasuke Taking Sakura to?

And there stood the graceful weasel. He leaned down to Sakura's ear. The others are too shocked to even speak or move.

"Run, I will take care of them," Itachi's smooth deep voice sent shivers to Sakura's spine. She turned around and whispered back,

"Don't kill them…Maybe kill Sasuke or so…And Karin…But, Itachi-ku—" she refused to say '-kun' in front of other people. "Itachi-san, Do not kill these two," she pointed to Juugo and Suigetsu.

"And why not, I already spared Kimimaro and Kabuto's lives. Don't think I cannot take that away Sa-Ku-Ra-san," he sounded out each syllable of the cherry blossom's name slowly.

"Because…They owe Sasuke for saving their lives…Without Sasuke being here they can come with us…Onegai, Suigetsu," she pointed to the fish man. "He wants to collect all the swords that belong to the Seven Swordsmen," She pointed to Juugo. "He, Juugo wants to not harm people because of the Curse Mark Oro-teme has put on him! Tsuande and I can help remove it or put a seal on it! Onegai…?" She gave him the most adorable puppy faces. Even Itachi couldn't help but chuckle.

"What about the girl?" he questioned.

Sakura's eyebrow twitched, 'That slut?! How dare he?!' she angrily thought.

'Ha! So, admit it! You do love him!' Inner Sakura put a vertical line under Inner Sakura on a green blackboard.

'I hate to admit it but, Inner Sakura is right. It's a bit obvious you know?' Ito smirked.

Sakura scowled inwardly and outwardly, 'Of course I love him…Wait, no!!!' Inner Sakura and Ito rolled on the floor and laughed.

"Sakura?" Itachi shook Sakura for a while.

"Hai?"

"You space out a lot…" Itachi smirked seeing her blushing face. 'She looks cute when she blushes.' He decided.

"No, bring her along with us! I want to torture her!" she gave him a big smile. It was a half fake and half real smile. Itachi was the only one that got her to make a half smile once…

"You stay with Hidan too long Sakura-san," Itachi had an emotionless face.

Sakura twitched. Suigetsu and Juugo relaxed a bit. They learned to care for her…A bit. She was the one that made Juugo actually talk with them. She made Suigetsu forget thinking about the Seven Swordsmen. She actually made Itachi's ice cubed heart melt.

"Please? If you were stuck in a room with her you would go insane right away…I'm glad I didn't lose my sanity…Yet!" she chirped up. Suigetsu heard and roared out laughing. Juugo chuckled under his breath.

Itachi remained emotionless, "Fine…" Sakura got away from the binds easily. Suigetsu and Juugo agreed to follow. Sasuke was pushing them too far over the cliff's edge, almost driving them into psychotic murders!

"Which village do you come from Sakura-chan?" Juugo asked.

"Konohagakure…And, an Akatsuki member, I'm still with ties with my village though. It's a long story…Like, VERY long!" she smiled.

The two arrived with Rookie Nine and the Akatsuki members. Every one of them hugged her tightly.

"SAKU-CHAN!!! Don't you ever and I mean ever fucking scare the shit out of me!" Guess who? Our very own Konan!

"Sakura!!!" someone obviously, very angry with her yelled behind Konan…It was the Leader of Akatsuki, Pein!

"Hai?" she smiled at him and hugged him tightly.

His glaring red (not sharingan) eyes softened and when she let go he got serious, "You could have escaped easily! Why didn't you come for us?"

She pointed to the two Hebi members, "I was having a great time with them!"

Suigetsu was talking to the other fish-like man…Hoshigaki Kisame. They talked about swords and Kisame made Suigetsu never to steal his katana until Suigetsu can beat him. He had a long way…Suigetsu was young though, about 16ish.

Juugo was talking to Zetsu which doesn't surprise her. They talked about which plants heal what. It surprised the cherry blossom the most that Juugo actually knew a lot about herbs and medicines. 'Probably wants to heal instead of kill…Nice choice!' she commented.

Seconds past…minutes past…hours past…and now 2 days have past and Itachi was know where to be seen. Sakura got worried more and more.

"What if he got poisoned and needs my help? Why can't I go and look for him? What if he's…Dead…?" she looked glum and Hinata calmed her down.

"Sakura-chan, you asked this question a bunch of times and NO!" Tsuande demanded.

"Nande (why)? I'm strong enough!" she yelled with angry tears in her green eyes.

Pein held a hand in front of Sakura to silence her. She immediately backed down.

"Sakura-chan is strong enough…I have heard from Kabuto-san she has beaten Sasuke in less than 5 minutes," he smirked at the shocked faces. "You may go," he commanded Sakura who left immediately.

Itachi ---

The exhausted weasel panted. He let his guard down when Sasuke has tried kicking him to the side when it was a false attack. Sasuke left him paralyzed and poisoned. Itachi managed to burn both legs of Sasuke's, making Sasuke harder to run. He fell to green yarn grass…It was soft and the breeze swept past the tall green grass, making it brush his blood skin.

Karin was teleported back to Rookie Nine yesterday. She was being held captive of Konohagakure.

The poison was spreading and he felt it. It was burning everywhere in his body and it hurt. He let out a hiss and clamped his onyx eyes shut. Things got blurrier…He saw brown…green…blue…And, when he was just about to die…He saw…Pink?
