Orochimaru stared down at the two teenagers and frowned at Sakura's appearance in particular. What was she doing there too? And why did she look so much like Tsunade? And how was he going to pay to house an extra person, damnit! Then again...Snake-Man suddenly spun away from the two lying in a heap on the floor and stroked his chin in thought.

Perhaps she could earn her pay...and a little extra for moi...AS A WHORE!

He paused a moment, and thought of the consequences for that one, Hm...Even if Sasuke-kun is on our side, he may not be happy with his old team mate selling her...Tsunade-like body. Although...she doesn't really have much of a chest.

He nudged Sakura's chest and shook his head in disgust, Nope, we'll have to think of something else.

"What are you doing?"

Sasuke had arrived only moments ago and was standing behind Orochimaru, wondering what the hell he was doing to his old team mate, and what was going to come next of all of these plots of evil!

"I am wondering how we are going to pay for an extra person to stay here, because someone, namely you, couldn't handle the task of kidnapping the kyuubi. Really, Sasuke-kun, I am deeply disappointed with you."

"She could stay in my room."

"No, I have rented part of your room out to someone else."

"Who?"

"Ah, now that is one of life's mysterious...mysteries, Sasuke-kun," The old man picked Sakura up by the arm and she hung there limply, "No, I'm afraid she's going to have to stay in the dungeons until we think of a use for her. I doubt it would be wise for us to destroy someone who is so obviously close to Tsunade-sama, that she would look almost the same. She could be useful later."

With their conversation finished, he tossed the girl to Sasuke, who caught her easily and moved out of the room to take her to her new living quarters. He glanced over his shoulder at the last moment and saw Naruto with his arm outstretched to where Sakura had once been lying. He sighed and shook his head.

"Are we out of the room yet?" Sakura mumbled with her eyes still closed.

"Great, you're awake," replied the Uchiha sarcastically with a roll of his eyes and he quickened his pace towards the dungeons. His old team mate didn't fail to notice this and she took a grip on his arm, opening her green eyes wide. She dug her nails into him painfully and he growled at her.

"Put me down."

"I can't."

"He's going to kill Naruto."

"I know."

She stared up at him, torn between resorting to anger or hysterics when she felt something sharp pierce her to the left of her spine. She tried to open her mouth to scream at him, at the world in general, she tried to kick, punch and scratch but her body wouldn't move. Her breath hitched and her heart began racing.

"You won't be able to move for a few hours," He leaned closer and whispered into her ear, "I have to let him have the kyuubi, even if it's at the cost of Naruto's life. It's the only way I can kill that man. Just...give up. Your struggling will only make everything worse, especially the temporary poison I gave you. When it's done I'll come back for you, and I'll find a way to take you back."

Sakura panicked and felt her throat close up, she wanted so badly to say, When this is over and done with, I will kill you myself.

"Sakura, calm down."

All she was able to get out was a small growl and her chest tightened as she continued to struggle.

"Sakura, stop, you're going to kill yourself!"

A small trickle of blood ran from the corner of her mouth and Sasuke yelled in disgust, hitting a pressure point to her neck that caused her to immediately slump with her eyes half open. He saw that they had arrived at the dungeons a long time ago and he walked carefully down the hall to the end cell. It was the only half decently clean one, that didn't already have someone dying or someone already dead in it. The entire place stunk of death and rotting flesh and every now and then a scream would echo from the torture chamber that was only the next room down.

Sasuke moved the pink haired girl to one arm and pulled a key out of his pocket to open the bared door. He walked into the cell and carefully laid her on the ground on her side, should she vomit from the poison's effects. He sat on the floor next to her, and seeing that no one was watching, dragged a shaky hand through his black hair with a shuddering breath. Everything was out of control. He only wanted to kill his brother, for god's sake, was he asking for so much! He didn't want the only friends he had ever known to get dragged into it. He didn't even want to think what would happen to Sakura when this was all over. And it would be his fault, too. Even Naruto, heck, he was annoying but he never wanted the blonde to die.

He rubbed the bridge of his nose and closed his eyes tight. He didn't know how long he sat there, and he only moved when he heard a series of pain filled screams, coming not from the torture room, but the hall leading to Orochimaru's main room. He half leaned out of the cell and peeked around the corner to the still open door. He flinched back when darts of blood came spraying towards him and hit the wall above his head. He stared at it and swallowed.

"I guess Naruto's awake, then." An ear splitting roar and the ground shaking beneath him were enough of an answer for him.

Sasuke hurried out of the cell and locked it behind him, then bolted out into the hall as fast as his legs would carry him. He skidded around three corners before he found where the trouble was. He stared in disbelief.

Naruto stood ten metres in front of him, hunched over with his hands at his sides, massive claws protruding from his fingertips. The same claws were growing at his toes and his shoes were ripped open. His hair seemed to grow slightly longer and was far more spiked than usual. The blonde was constantly making a growling sound with every breath he took. What really took the Uchiha's attention, though, were the five partially see through tails, waving back and forth from Naruto's buttocks. A sixth tail was partially grown.

The kyuubi in the blonde let out another shattering roar and the floor cracked further around them. Orochimaru was conjuring up something to bind the young man down so he could reseal the monster in him. A tail whipped out with a crack and sent the old man flying into a wall. He hissed in anger and pain, feeling his pride go down in front Sasuke, who was staring at him.

Naruto caught Orochimaru looking behind him and turned to see what he was staring at. Sasuke took a step backwards before he could catch himself. The blonde's canines had elongated into fangs and he had long whiskers sticking out from his cheeks. His clothes looked to be ripping themselves into shreds, just to get away from the beyond powerful aura radiating from the Uchiha's old team mate. His bright crimson eyes went wide in realization of who was standing in front of him, and he snarled out a barely recognizable sentence.

"Growly mc growl growl Sakura-chan!"

Sasuke blinked and decided he must have been asking where Sakura was. He glanced at Orochimaru who looked furious that his plan had backfired. Naruto's voice rose and he asked again, more clearly, with an edge that promised pain to all who didn't answer him.

"Where. Is. Sakura-chan?"

Do I tell him?

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Sakura woke up to find herself in a smelly, dark cell. Oh, and all of her muscles ached. A lot.
Upon realization that she could actually move and speak now, she almost cheered, but held it in when she glanced out of the steel bars that kept her in. A wide river of blood was traveling along the stone ground in front of her and flowing into the torture room, causing renewed screams from the area, though more from fear than pain.

A furious roar followed the blood and the girl had to clap her hands over her ears to keep them from bleeding. The ground shook beneath her feet as the sound continued to grow louder, and louder.

"Ugh! what is that!" Only a collection of groans from the dying people in the other cells answered her, although she couldn't hear any of them over the dominating noise. At one point, she thought she picked up her own name, but shook her head in denial.

The noise finally died down and she was able to move her hands and try to figure out a way to get out of this mess.

She glanced from her hands to the ground and a massive grin broke across her face. A little concentration, and the tell tale spark of blue chakra raced down her arms and to her clenched fists. She thought back to Orochimaru and Sasuke and what they planned to do to Naruto, You better be ready for this, bastards.

The ground and the holding cell around her were promptly torn to shreds and it collapsed.

oooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Orochimaru, Sasuke and the transformed Naruto fell to the ground together as the entire underground hideout began to shake. A series of vine like cracks started appearing in the walls and bits and pieces of dubree fell and cracked on the stone floor. All three ninjas had to leap to the left side of the room as the entire floor split down the middle and divided until there was a five metre wide hole.

They gaped in shock for what seemed like ...oh, say...two or three minutes?

A blur of pink and red shot past the entryway and the males looked up in unison and stared, as the running person swore, then skidded to a halt and ran backwards into the room.

"Oh. There you all are."

Sakura leaned against the doorway, huffing and puffing, and she was holding onto a severed bar of steel from the cell that she had taken as a weapon. Sasuke eyed the bar and took a step closer to Naruto, possibly hoping for some protection. Naruto gulped, and knew this had to do with the Uchiha and he was probably going to get hurt if he was anywhere near the missing ninja. He stood at what he felt was a safe distance from Sasuke, which actually turned out to be at the other end of the room with Orochimaru.

The pink haired girl side stepped over one of the smaller cracks in the ground and moved to the left side of the room. When she was closer to everyone else, she stopped and stared sharply at Naruto, who now had six tails waving about behind him. It would seem, though, that Kyuubi had abandoned him and had shut himself back into the cage upon seeing the mass destruction Sakura could cause. Naruto winced and all of the tails sucked back up into him with a squeak.

"I-I'm glad you're okay, Sakura-chan!"

"Quiet!"

"Okay."

Orochimaru stood against the wall he had been thrown at and observed the scene before him. MY PLAN IS RUINED! There will be no pillow fight with Sasuke-kun and his brother! Curses.

I am not happy.

Sakura turned to face the Snake-Man and some of her fiery attitude died down, "Um...I'll pay for the damage?"

"How dare you!"

"You started it!"
