Sakura looked up into Sasori's eyes as she ran her hands over his chest. His long fingers pulled and twisted lose the buttons down the side of her dress.
"Sakra, I have waited for this for so long. I love you." Sasori whispered into her neck as he slid his fingers under the now open bodice across the mounds of her breasts.
"So soft Sakura, you are truly beautiful my dear."
Sakura spreads apart the folds of his now open shirt, turning to him so she can slide the garment off his shoulders.
He, in turn, peels back the sheer sequined bodice to reveal her breasts and pushes the dress down over her stomach and hips. He kicks the dress off the bed and it falls to the floor in a soft whoosh of silk and fluff.
Her fingers drop to his pants and he helps her undo the belt, unzip and push his pants to the floor beside her dress.
"Sasori." She hums as he lifts her up, laying her down beside him.
Not content to stay on her back she turns onto hers reaching out to embrace him. Kissing her softly, his hands trailing down the length of her body over her thigh he reaches round and pulls one leg up and over his waist, leaving the space between her legs open for his attentions.
Two fingers trace a lazy trail on his inner thigh pulling sweet moaning noises from her lips. Slowly he rubs her entrance, wet with her arousal. She takes her lower lip between her teeth as he slid two fingers up into her heat. Her body twitches and moves against him, her eyes closed as she sucks breaths in quick and erratic.
Curling his fingers up against the smooth silk of her walls he bites down on her neck gently. Her hands come up and tangled in his hair as she moves against his hand begging him with her body to touch her more.
"I can't wait any longer." He pulled her leg up roughly higher around his waist, leaning into her, moving her onto her back he raises his top half off of her, lining himself up with her entrance.
"Sakura, look at me." He coaxes her to meet his eyes.
She opened her eyes and smiles at him.
"That's my girl." Slowly he pushes his cock up and into her, her eyes flutter shut and she bites down hard on her bottom lip.
"Sakura, love, I want you to look at me, I want to see your eyes" he pulls out of her, he waits, she opens her eyes and he pushes back into her groaning out his pleasure.
He drops her leg and moves higher up taking her hands in his and pinning them above her head." Wrap your legs around my waist." he commands.
Sakura nods and wraps her legs around his waist mewling and wiggling her ass. Sasori grits his teeth trying to maintain control, he bucks into her hard making her back arch off the bed.
"Again." She moans.
"3 hours from visual, keep your eyes open for scouts!" Itachi calls to his team.
Baki scans the sand with a veteran's eye. Four small specks catch his attention moving fast across the sand to the East.
"I need eyes!" Baki shouts and binoculars are placed in his hand by his aid.
"Shit!" He turns to his team," We've got incoming! Let's welcome them to Suna!"
"Yes, Sir!" his team choruses back as they head out to meet Itachi and his team.
"Madara, Itachi has visual, they are engaging, he says it is Baki. They must be close then."
Shisui drops the sat phone back in his pack turning to the rest of the group before him.
"Time for you to go then, lead the two teams and come in from the south. That will leave the north open but it can't be helped." Madara said.
"Keep checking your GPS, don't get turned around, maintain position, the others will see you on the map. No communication from here on out." Hashirama added and Madara nodded.
Shisui grinned and turned to the two teams waiting for his orders, strapping his wakizashi next to his rifle on his back as he yelled. "You heard the man! Let's go!"
"Don't think you're leaving without me!" Tsunade Senju pulled her car up throwing it into park and jumping out grabbing bag and case from her back seat and running up to Shisui.
"I wouldn't dream of it." He winked at her.
"Cut the crap Uchiha let's get going, I want my apprentice back." She throws on a pair of her own goggles and glares at him pointedly.
"You heard the lady!" Shisui grinned at her one last time before running toward the sand followed by Tsunade and his teams.
Baki met Itachi head on with a roar. Itachi's K-Bar ripped open the older man's chest without hesitation, he moved to the next man in line tripping him neatly, bending and slitting his throat. By the time he rose, the rest of the Sand scouts had been taken down by his team.
"Forward." Itachi wiped the blood from his knife using the front of Baki's uniform.
Sasori took a deep breath as he lay next to Sakura in their bed. Her small body draped over his slightly larger one like a curtain. She was sound asleep, her mouth slightly open, small wisps of hair floating at the edge of her face.
He closed his eyes and took another deep breath. So, this is what it's like to feel happy, he thought to himself as he drifted off to sleep.
Tobirama looked down at the GPS in his hand. Itachi's team had barely stopped, to eliminate the seasoned Sand ops team before moving on to their main focus. Tobirama had expected nothing less from Itachi but was still impressed.
"Pick up the pace! The Uchiha brat has already taken out Baki and his team, we don't want to look bad now do we?" His team roared their displeasure at the thought and they pushed on.
"I heard you were really something back in your day in the service Tsunade, they called you the Slug Queen. I heard you could really lay a guy out, with one hit no less." Shisui winked at her as they ran over the sand.
"You wanna find out?" Tsunade gave him a hard look ignoring the snickering Uchiha behind her.
"I'd let you lay me out anyday, you name it gorgeous." Shisui grinned at her.
"How bout' this, if we get Sakura back, I'll buy you a drink." Tsunade grinned back at him.
"You got it, and don't worry, I want her back just as much as you do, although, none of us want her back as much as Itachi." He picked up the pace racing over the sand effortlessly.
Sasori didn't know what woke him, but wake he did, with a bad feeling. Reluctantly he removed himself from Sakura's embrace, grabbed his pants and phone as he slipped out of their room and headed for his study dialing Baki.
No answer.
He hit the buttons on his remote to bring up his security cameras for tower one by the scouting post. He saw the small image of the scout team lying in a bloody mess in the sand. He clenched his fist and brought it down hard on his desk. He had underestimated Itachi.
He picked up the In-House phone and called the other two watchtowers.
"Baki's team is dead, set the traps, shoot to kill. I don't need any more prisoners for Kabuto to torture. Send out teams 3 and 5 to the East gate and team 4 and 6 to the West."
Sasori stood there switching in between cameras and frowned. Where was Itachi...
"Incoming!" Hidan yelled as two teams of Sand nin ran at them full speed.
Deidara grabbed the Sand nin by the front of his jacket, pulled him up and over him slamming him to the ground, locking a white sticky patch to his chest.
Boom!
"Fuck yeah!" Deidara cackled as an arm flew by his head.
"Careful fuck head! You almost got me too!" Hidan ran past him taking a nin by the arm with one hand and stabbing him in the chest with the other.
"Focus, there are more coming." Itachi said calmly as he watched another team pop out of the sand and run toward them guns ready.
"Itachi!" Kisame saw the wires at the same time Itachi had.
"I know!" Itachi yelled back and the sand around them exploded. Tripwire, was the second to last thought that ran through his mind, Sakura. Itachi's vision went black, he could hear the screaming of his team as they flew through the air around him.
"Change of plans! We're moving to Itachi's last known position!" Shisui yells over his shoulder.
"What's wrong?" Tsunade yells over the wind as they change course.
"They stopped, Itachi never stays in one place during an infiltration and retrieval mission." Shisui's face looks grim.
"Ah." Tsunade grit her teeth. This was bad then.
They came over the last dune at full speed into chaos.
Sand whirled and whipped at their faces and hands as they ran down the dune to meet the remaining Sand ops. Sasori blew up his own men to get to Itachi.
"Itachi!" Shisui called out for his cousin as he dodged heavy fire from the sand ops.
Tsunade was at his side, The Slug Queen, shooting op after op point blank covering Shisui.
"There he is!" Shisui drops down beside Itachi.
"Switch with me Tsunade!" Shisui pulls his rifle from his back and pulling the trigger in one fluid motion.
Tsunade pulls a blade from her jacket cutting away Itachi's shirt under his destroyed vest. "You are one lucky son of a bitch Uchiha."
"I know." Itachi wheezed, blood coming out of the corner of his mouth.
"Let's get you sewn up." Tsunade reaches for her suture kit.
"Well well, as I live and breathe. Never thought I would live to see such a sight. The great Itachi Uchiha down in the field, and a Senju no less, saving his life." Tobirama kneeled down beside them as Tsunade stitched Itachi's wound closed.
"Enjoy the sight while you can you white haired fiend." Itachi's mouth twitched.
"My men." Itachi breathed out in a gasp as Tsunade stuck the needle into his abdomen again.
"They are being cared for, like you. The Sand ops are cleared, we move as soon as you're sewn up kid." Tobirama stood then and motioned to his team.
"Thank you Senju." Shisui bowed to Tsunade and Tobirama.
"Don't thank me, thank her." He motioned to Tsunade. "To be honest, your men took care of most of the Sand ops, you were just finishing up when we arrived." Tobirama smiled for the first time.
"All clear Sir, traps are down." A nameless Senju reported to Tobirama.
"You okay to walk or do you need me to carry you?" Tobirama teased Itachi.
"Ugh." Itachi groaned, he was not in the mood for jokes.
"Yeah yeah, can we just go rescue Sakura already?" Shisui motioned to the two Uchiha teams to follow him and ran toward the distant gates of the Akasuna Mansion.
"Let's go lover boy." Tsunade used her legendary monstrous strength and hauled Itachi to his feet.
"Toka, stay with them, they will be moving a bit slower, I assume. I will take the rest of our team and join Shisui. Stay within local radio." Tobirama and the rest of the team ran in the direction Shisui and the other Uchiha had gone.
Itachi groaned.
"Don't pass out on me now Uchiha." Tsunade growled at him and hoisted him higher up on her shoulder. They moved slowly but firmly toward the gate.
"Fuck!" Sasori pulled his pistol out and shot the surveillance monitor in front of him.
"I was hoping it wouldn't come to this." He turned on his heel, hitting the emergency button on the wall as he left the room.
Kabuto gripped Sasuke's hair pulling his head back as he thrust into him from the back ignoring the red flashing lights.
"Such a good fit Uchiha." He leaned over to bite Sasuke's neck.
Sasuke grunted.
"You like it don't you." Kabuto ground into his ass he began to peak.
Kabuto reached around taking Sasuke's hard cock in his hand stroking it faster and faster as he exploded into his ass.
"I'm not done with you yet." Kabuto licked the sweat off Sasuke's back pushing him down flat onto the ground, as the red light continued to flash in the background.
Sasori walked down the hallway toward the bedroom calling servants to him as he went. "Pack an overnight bag for my lady and put it in the helicopter, radio the pilot, tell him to hurry. We wish to leave immediately."
"Sakura dear, we need to leave. I have a surprise for you." Sasori leans over her pulling her up to a sitting position.
"Sasori?" She opens her sleepy eyes to look at him.
Sasori is struck again by her perfect beauty, but there is no time for that now. "Yes, we need to go dear. I have called the helicopter to take us somewhere special for our honeymoon, let's get you dressed, we leave immediately."
He helps her slide out of their bed and leads her to the dressing room.
"Get dressed quickly doll, I'll be right back." He leaves the room quickly.
"Kabuto, where the hell are you?" Sasori growls stalking toward the basement.
Sakura stood in the dressing room looking through the clothes. She didn't remember any of them, they didn't look like her clothes. They were lovely and beautiful but not familiar. She shook the fuzz from her head as she pulled out a dark purple sundress with white flowers on it. Opening drawer after draw in the dresser she found a matching bra and underwear set and put it on. The light cotton dress slid over her form nicely hugging her curves and making her feel more than a little pretty.
Finding a pair of silver sandals along the bottom of the rows in the closet she slipped them onto her feet listening.
Pop Pop Pop
"Is that gunfire?" She moved slowly to the window thinking that the window is probably not the best idea but she was curious.
Looking down she saw dark haired men moving fast across the rock garden lawn toward the front door and windows. She narrowed her eyes as one of them stops and looks up at her. He cups his hands to his face and yells something but she can't hear him. He grins and waves at her, static fills her head and she staggers backwards away from the window.
"What the hell?" She grabs her head, it has gone fuzzy like little fissures of lightening rocketing around her brain.
"Sakura? Are you alright ?" Sasori walks to her quickly taking her hands in his, a look of concern on his face.
"My head, like lightning, electricity is..." She staggers and falls against him.
"A side effect of your medicine dear, not to worry, it will pass in a few days, come, the helicopter is waiting , we must go." He pulls her along after him as they walked quickly to the door and down the hall. Damn that Kabuto, the man had disappeared.
"Sakura!" Shisui cups his hands together and yells above the gunfire. He sees her looking down at him through the window and marks it's location in his head.
He pulls the sat phone from his pack and calls Itachi, "I got visual on Sakura but lost it, she is alive Itachi, she looked whole. We're going in."
"Team 6 forward! Team 4 to the back!" Shisui turns toward the noise over the sand, "Shit! A chopper! To the chopper! He isn't going to get away!"
Itachi, Tsunade and Toka are slowly making their way down the last dune before the manse.
"Chopper." Toka yells as it flies over them toward the manse.
"Sakura." Itachi wheezes.
"Go Toka, stop them, do whatever you can. The Uchiha and I are right behind you." Tsunade shoves her friend and cousin.
Toka pulls her rifle from her back and runs for the field she is sure the chopper will land.
"Okay Uchiha time for drastic measures." She dumps him unceremoniously on the ground ripping a small pack from her waist and pulling two vials from it with a new syringe.
"What...is...that?" Itachi gets out through the pain in his abdomen. The bleeding hadn't stopped yet and he was getting dizzy.
"Let's just call it, adrenaline." She uncorks the first vial and draws the liquid into the needle tapping out the bubbles as she goes and then plunging it into his neck. She grabs the other vial and does the same thing.
He drops to the ground. "Not yet Uchiha." she pressed a bottle of water to his lips.
"Itachi, call me Itachi." He gasps.
"Whatever, Itachi, if you die, she'll never forgive me." Tsunade rips open a sterile pack of gauze slapping it to his wound and then pulling a wrap from her other pack wrapping it around his waist and upper torso.
"Not...going...to...die ...today." Itachi bit out as she pulled the wrapper tightly and tied it.
"Good, now get up and let's get our girl back." She pulls him to his feet and they walk fast toward the manse.
The skirt of her dress flew up as they ran out to meet the helicopter. Sasori was nearly dragging her along at this point.
"Wait!" She tries to yell over the rush of blades.
"There is no time Sakura, we must go now." Sasori pulls on her arm dragging her forward.
"No, this doesn't seem right, why are we leaving like this, why are we in such a hurry?" She plants her feet firmly on the ground pulling her hand from his.
Sasori stops, his lips tight and flat as he controls his anger. "Sakura, dear, we need to leave, I will explain everything once we are on the helicopter and away. Please." He reaches out for her.
"GET AWAY FROM HER!" Shisui Uchiha breaks through the doors of the manse near the landing pad rifle in hand raising it to Sasori's head.
"STEP BACK FROM HER SCUM!" Shisui takes two steps forward.
Sasori grabs Sakura by the elbow, spins her and brings her up close over his heart, his face tucked into her neck, her body covering his as he looks past her blowing hair to the Uchiha.
"You shoot me, you kill her too." Sasori smiles.
"Sasori, what, what are you doing?" Sakura struggles up against him.
"Not to worry dear, I have this under control, just stay with me, I won't let them hurt you." Sasori whispers into her ear.
She can feel the pistol at his hip digging into her side painful.
Sasori pulls a pistol from his side and points it up under her chin. What? Sakura moans, he had another on the other side?
"I don't want to, but I will kill her to get out of here alive." Sasori yells.
"No you won't, you have stalked her your whole life, tell me another one Akasuna!" Shisui taunts him.
"What?" Sakura tries to turn her head to look at Sasori but she can't.
Shisui sees the look of confusion on her face, "He is a murdered Sakura! He drugged you to wipe your memory! Don't trust him!" He yells.
The rest of his team join him taking position around the helicopter guns pointed at the red headed man.
"Give up Sasori, there's nowhere to go, just release her, we know you won't kill her." Shisui takes another step forward.
"Sakura." Itachi and Tsunade call from the doors.
"Itachi?" Sakura breaths.
Sasori's grip on her tightens, anger washes over him. She remembers him?
Sakura shakes her head trying to subdue the flashes of lightning rocketing around in her brain.
"We need to get her the serum quickly!" Tsunade yells to Shisui, "We are running out of time!"
Serum, damn that Senju, Sasori knew the only person who could reverse or stop the effects of the drug was her but he never thought he would see the day that the Senju would work with the Uchiha.
"You look like shit." Tobirama and his team had arrived.
Itachi ignored him.
Sasori groaned, this was bad. He hadn't accounted for this. He edged closer to the helicopter.
"Don't move!" Itachi yelled out a lot stronger and more forceful than he felt. He felt like he was going to fall over but he stood tall and menacingly.
"Don't be a fool Uchiha." Sasori snarled.
"Sakura, remember the field of flowers, by the old compound, remember?" Itachi asked her calmly rifle aimed at Sasori's head and at the ready.
"I...don't...I'm sorry." She stuttered. She couldn't remember.
"Think Sakura." Itachi continued to speak to her calmly. "You are the most intelligent woman I know, you can remember. Two summers ago, you and I went there together, I bought you tempura and dango and we sat there, in the field in the middle of all the beautiful flowers and then when we were done eating , remember what you did?" He smiled at her.
Realization flew over her face and he breathed in, took his aim, she dropped to the ground, her knees hitting the stone, Sasori gaped at her in concern, Itachi breathed out and took his shot.
It hit Sasori in the heart, he dropped to the ground beside Sakura and she broke into tears. She remembered, after they had eaten lunch she had ran through the field, her hands trailing over the soft petals, then dropped to the ground gathering an armful up to her nose.
"Thank Kami." Itachi lowered his rifle and let it drop to the ground in relief, walking toward Sakura.
"Itachi!" Shisui and Tobirama both shouted at the same time.
Sasori pulled the other pistol from his waist bringing it up to Itachi's face. "Goodbye Uchiha."
"No!" Sakura screamed.
Everything went into slow motion around her.
Tobirama leapt forward with Shisui, Tsunade spun around looking over her shoulder to the roof of the manse, Itachi turned to smile at her, and Sasori pulled the trigger...but not before his head exploded and he dropped to the ground...dead. Sasori, long ago, had surgically moved his heart from one side of his chest to the other, but he couldn't avoid a shot to his head.
"Toka." Tsunade breathed out.
"Better late than never eh?" The Senju woman grinned down at them from the roof of the manse.
Tsunade grabbed her case and ran to Sakura pulling the lid open. She pulled the waiting pre-prepped injects out and thrust the first into Sakura's arm.
Sakura looked up to her Shisou. "Shisou?" Tsunade smiled.
"Sakura." Itachi moved to her pulling her to him and burying his head in her hair.
"Ita...Itachi?' She got out through the tears.
"Yes, I'm sorry it took me so long. Forgive me please." Itachi cried into her hair.
Sparks exploded in her brain and she slumped forward, he grunted slightly under the extra weight, he could feel the blood soaking into her dress from his wound but didn't care.
Shisui and Tobirama stood over the now headless body of Akasuna no Sasori looking down.
"Where's Sasuke?" Shisui looked around.
Itachi lifted his head. "Find him."
Two weeks later back at the Uchiha compound in Konoha…
Sasuke woke up in a cold sweat. He could still feel that bastards cold hands on his cock. He leaned over his bed and threw up.
Shisui had found them in a secret room in the basement of the Akasuna Mansion. Kabuto was too occupied pounding into Sasuke's ass to notice the older Uchiha. Sasuke woke up a day later in their compound, his mother holding his hand.
He hadn't made it out of bed that time either before he had thrown up.
Sakura sat on the back porch with Itachi looking out into the open field behind the main house. Obito leaned against the porch rail far off the right knife in hand whittling a block of wood into chess pieces.
"Are you ready to go back Sakura? I'm sure Tsunade will understand if you want to take this semester off." Itachi asked her gently, his leg brushing up against hers.
Sakura smiled, "No she won't. She would smack me and tell me to get back on the horse."
A small smile graced Itachi's lips. "You're probably right."
Two years later…
"Congratulations Sakura, we are so proud of you!" Hashirama hugged her then Madara.
She hadn't recovered all of her memories. Madara watched her smile and hug her friends and family. What would she do if she remembered what their family did...did it matter?
"Thank you, I couldn't have done it without all of you." She smiled at all of her friends and family gathered around her smiling at her success.
"Are you sure you're ready?" Itachi smiled down at her.
"I'm ready Itachi." She smiled up at him raising onto her toes to give him a kiss.
"Well, let's get going if we want to make those dinner reservations" Mikoto pulled at them. "You only have what two hours before you leave for your honeymoon!"
Sakura smiled at Itachi who looked down at her returning her smile.
"Shall we Mrs. Dr. Uchiha?" Itachi grinned at her and held open the door to the limo that had just pulled up.
"I can't wait." She climbed into the car, turned and pulled him in after her by his lapel.
