After give that report to Bison getting Sakura out of Japan was not really that hard as using Shadaloo connections Tanka managed to slip out the country with Sakura. She was outside the cage yet not really giving much resistance as she was drugged with substance that made appear that she was just sleepy. Once outside the Japan though she was thrown back into the cage as the drugs would not last the whole trip back to Shadaloo base where Bison was currently staying at.
Though the trip back was not exactly a quite one after the drugs wore off and Sakura was fully aware of her surrounding again. She would rant and rave about how they were all going to pain when she got out here and how badly Ryu was going to beat them once he found out that they had taken her. Never once realizing that this was exactly what they were hoping for after all. Ryu coming after her as she was the only one that they could go after and not have massive scene made out of it right away. Not to say that her life was less important then the others within Ryu's yet hers was the most low key of them all. She did not have the Masters named behind her thus everything she did and did not do would not catch the media's attention. Nor was she an highly known agent of Interpol that was actively hunting down Bison and aiming to taken down Shadaloo like Chun Li was. She was just average Japanese schoolgirl that happen to have the rare talent of being a very good self taught Street Fighter, after all she did not even start training serious until she first saw Ryu anyway.
This spoke leaps and bounds about her vast untapped potential as she did in a quarter of the time what Ryu, Ken, and other Street Fighter had spent to varying degrees their entire lives doing. Sakura by simply watching Ryu perform the Hadoken had managed to duplicate it almost perfectly where as Dan Hibki who according to various source had once been Gouken's very first student never had his despite direct training no matter how short it was. Dan was expelled because his desire for revenge against Sagat killing his father as took the old saying an eye for a eye very serious. Gou gouged out right eye of man nearly eight feet tall somehow possibly jumping and Sagat beat him to death probably destroying one of his eyes in the process. Though that was pretty much to be expected considering Sagat's track record with this sort of thing. He put his student Adon in traction for four months after he 'won' a challenge for his teacher's title as God of Muay Thai while still recovering from Ryu having ripped his chest open with a Metsu Shoryuken. Then there was Ryu who hunting down for the scar on his chest and beating him in his own tournament he held to prove he was the best fighter in the world.
Of course by the time that Ryu had even caught wind of her being captured as being so hard to find meant that you could not get information as fast as everyone else could and also because of his upbringing and lifestyle. Ryu was not very tech savvy there was as he could use computers and various other technical devices. So he got his news by paper, TV, letters, and people that just happen to see him. Thus by the time he could even be informed that Shadaloo had captured Sakura it would have been far too late for him to have done anything.
Though Sakura weather she was aware of how unlike it was Ryu would come to save her in time or not. She still went on about how he would come save. Despite that even her own parents had not yet realized that she had gone missing yet for they had waited until she had left to take part in local Street Fighter tournament before nabbing her. It would be days possibly a week or more before her parents report her as missing as the tournament was set up by unknowing everyone involved set up by Shadaloo. Thus Sakura's name was not even listed on the program, as it was just trap to lure her out and keep people from realizing she had been kidnapped.
Tanaka and most of the Japanese branch of Shadaloo were also banking on the fact that Sakura had not told her parents that Ryu was being pursued by global crime organization as they might let her go off to take part in Street Fighter tournaments and fights. However possibly getting the attention of group like Shadaloo because they are after her idol and role model would have mostly likely changed their minds real quick.
Yet when things got too much for him to handle Tanka just tased Sakura this time with extra strong jolt to ensure that she was unconscious the rest of the way towards the base where she would receive her re-education process for becoming one of Bison's Dolls.
Once Sakura was out cold from electric jolt that run through her body causing her to drop like a sack of potatoes to the floor of the cage she was trapped in as her eyes rolled up into her head and she began twitching slightly from the getting tased. Tanka was thinking just what might he get for having found such a find like Sakura here as sure he overlooked her before but he good reason to that time. Now however she was proving to be more then worthy subject for the Dolls program as he noticed that Ryu was not the only person that she could emulate the moves of.
For as she laid there unconscious on the floor of her cage, Tanka realized her body had managed to house the charge of the taser gun and when another guard was order to poke at her with hand they got rather nasty shock that knocked their butt out cold. Apparently she had subconsciously learned to emulate Blanka's ability to generate electricity through the numerous shocks she had been given by their taser gun.
