(A/N HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!!!! I would like to say thank you to everyone for loving my story so much. Once again sorry for taking so long to update, but I had finals and I've been sick for the past week and a half. Warning this chapter will have sexual themes in it and violence. Like I said in the last chapter this story will now be rated M for obivous reasons. Now enough talk and lets get on with the story!)
Last Time:
Sakura was sitting up in her bed with a confused look on her face. Tsunade must have left earlier because Sakura was the only one in the room.
"Sakura..." Ino whispered afraid that if she spoke too loudly that she would wake up and find this to be a dream.
At the sound of her name Sakura turned her head in Ino's direction. She cocked her head to the side and pouted. "Ino-chan do you have any idea where I am?" She cutely asked.
Ino couldn't control herself anymore she ran at Sakura and wrapped her arms around her. Sakura looked to be a little startled by her sudden movement because she jumped slightly.
"Ummmmm...Ino I'm kind of having trouble breathing, could you please get off of me?" Sakura asked too weak to pull the girl off of her herself.
She quickly jumped off of her friend blushing a little at her actions. "Sorry about that it's just that you've been asleep for sooooooo long."
"How long have I been out?"
"A week."
"Oh...that long huh. My neck tells me otherwise." Sakura joked trying to get the kinks out of her neck.
They both started laughing and that's when Ino realized something. Sakura never had a father figure in her life growing up, but still she found the courage to smile. She thought back on her converstation with Tsunade earlier. 'I can't be the one that manages to bring a smile to her face. I'm sure that she has smiled plently of times before we met or when we were fighting.'
Looking at the bright smile on her best friends face and the way her eyes glowed in delight made Ino really consider whether it was Sakura making herself smile or her.

Thoughts, lyrics, and flashbacks
Chapter 13: Hidden Pain
It was 10 in the morning on a Saturday in the village of Konoha. Most normal people would have been sleeping, but if we looked into an apartment complex you could see that one individual was up.
This person was standing completely still in the darkness of her room. She looked to be staring intensely at something on her dresser. A closer look at the girl and you would have realized that her hair was pink and her face looked extremely sad.
This person was none other than Haruno Sakura.
With a trembling hand she reached out to grab the framed picture that she had been looking at for the past hour. A lone tear fell from her right eye as memories flashed through her mind.
'4 months. It's been exactly 4 months since that day, still I feel like it was just yesterday when it happened. When will this pain go away?' Sakura thought over in her head, gently placing the picture back on the dresser.
She was brought out of her thoughts by a light tapping on her window. Turning her head she held back a groan of frustration as she saw her old teammate. He was smiling at her and motioning for her to open the window. Sakura complied to his wishes and easily opened her window, but told him to be quiet because Ino was still sleeping.
"Naruto ever heard of a door?" Sakura joked with the boy as she sat at the edge of her bed.
"Of course I heard of a door. I just didn't want to wake Ino up." Naruto explained walking into the room and leaning against the wall opposite of Sakura.
Sakura decided not to beat around the bush because she really wanted to be left alone today. "So what brings you here on a day like this? I'm sure you've realized what date it is."
"That's exactly why I'm here. I think that you should tell Ino about what happened." Naruto said being very serious.
"Not you too! She can't find out Naruto! Do you have any idea what he could do to her if he found out! If I told her then we would get closer together and I can't have that!" Sakura yelled, sick of everyone telling her that she should tell Ino. Couldn't they realize that if she did it would result in her death.
"Sakura she's your best friend she has a right to know."
"It doesn't matter." Sakura slowly shook her head to rid herself of mental images. "I can't have her die just because she cares for me. I promised myself that no one precious to me will ever suffer like that again. Naruto like you I stick to my promises."
Naruto clenched his fists in anger, he felt so helpless. 'Dammit why can't everything go back to how it used to be. Back to our days as Team 7. For months now Sakura's been in pain and it's all that bastard's fault, if breaking her heart wasn't enough! Sasuke I swear that I will kill you for what you did to Sakura! No one hurts my best friend like that and gets away with it. '
"At least think it over Sakura. I don't mean dismiss the idea like you normally do, actually take some time and think it over. I know that Ino really cares about you and your well-being. She won't look at you differently if you do tell her." Naruto said to his teammate lightly pushing himself off the wall.
Sakura sighed knowing that this was about how far she would get to a compromise. "Fine I'll think about it, but I doubt my answer will change."
He sadly smiled at his best friend. "As long as you think it over. Oh and Tsunade-baa-chan said you have the whole day to yourself." With that he jumped out the window leaving Sakura all by herself again.
"Naruto you can be such a baka." Sakura whispered to herself.
------------
"Okay everyone lets take a 10 minute break." Asuma said to the cast. Everyone smiled in relief because they had been singing for 3 hours straight without a break.
Ino took a long drink out of her water bottle as Hinata and Tenten made their way over to her.
"Hey Ino do you have any idea why Sakura is gone?" Tenten asked sitting down in the chair next to Ino, Hinata quickly followed suit.
"I have no idea where she could be. She was really distant during breakfast and didn't even say anything to me. Just ate and left." Ino replied, sad that her best friend wasn't there.
"Do you think something happened?" Hinata politely questioned. Even though she had nothing to do about the whole Ren thing she still felt really guilty about it. She barely talked to Ino and Sakura because she was embarrassed but she didn't know that both girls forgave her.
"What do you mean Hinata?" Ino asked confused by the question.
"Well Naruto-kun looks extremely sad today. I mean he hasn't talked to me all day and he keeps snapping at anyone that does try to talk to him. Plus Tsunade-sama and Kakashi-sensei aren't even here today." Hinata explained trying to redeem herself.
Ino thought about it. Hinata was right Naruto was extremely moody today and the absence of Sakura's teachers was another thing. Tsunade and Kakashi hadn't missed a rehearsal yet so something had to have happened.
"Can you guys excuse me." Ino said. Not even waiting for an answer she got up and walked over to where Naruto was standing.
Once Ino reached him she smirked and placed her hands on her hips. "Hey if I attemped to talk to you will you yell at me as well?" She playfully asked leaning forward slightly to wait for his answer.
Naruto sighed and ran a hand through his golden blonde hair. "I have been an asshole haven't I."
"Well acting as cold as a Uchiha could be considered being an asshole, but hey you be the judge."
"Look it's just that something's been on my mind that's all."
Ino smiled at the Kyuubi vessel before grabbing his arm and dragging him out the door. "Why don't we discuss your troubles outside. Besides I'm sure you don't want people eaves dropping on you."
When they were outside Ino led Naruto into a side alley so that they had the chance to have some privacy. Naruto slid to the ground and sat up against the wall. He looked like he was about to cry at any moment with the way his hands started to tremble and his eyes welled up with tears.
Now Ino was worried, it takes a lot to make Naruto this sad. She slowly approached him and sat down next to him. With extreme care she draped her left arm around his shoulders.
"Naruto what happened to make you this sad?" Ino asked the dreaded question.
"Today is the 4 month anniversary of that day." Naruto said his voice above a whisper. He was clenching his hands tightly into fists, Ino noticed that a little bit of blood was dripping through his fingers.
"What anniversary?" Ino knew the answer she just wanted Naruto to confirm it.
"Ino you know I can't tell you, but it's the day that Sakura-chan changed." The blonde boy said going back to calling Sakura, Sakura-chan.
"Where is she then?"
Naruto smashed his hands into his face so fast that it made Ino jump a little. He started to pull his hair really hard as his nails dug into his scalp. "I DON'T KNOW!!" He shouted out, his voice dripping with pain.
Ino quickly grabbed Naruto's wrist and tried to get him to let go of his hair. When he didn't budge Ino decided to yell at him. "Naruto you're hurting yourself stop this!"
Apparently what she said made him stop his antics. His hands dropped to the concrete floor as his head sunk lifelessly down to his chest. Ino was about to talk to him again when Naruto started to speak softly.
"It's my fault that this happened to her in the first place." He started. Ino knew better than to interrupt him because this was new information. Tears worked their way down his cheeks but he still went on. "If I would have been there to protect her then he wouldn't have done that. If I brought him back in the first place he wouldn't have turned evil. I'M SO WEAK!!!" Then he broke down in a fit of body shaking sobs.
Quickly Ino wrapped her arms around his body as he cried into her shoulder. 'Whatever happened to Sakura has to be eating away at Naruto's heart. I feel so bad for him. Sakura is his whole world whether it was chasing after her, being her teammate, or being her best friend. Since Naruto has no parents Sakura is one of his most precious people. So whatever happens to her kills him inside and if there was a chance for him to stop it and he didn't then he'll never forgive himself.' She knew that this was all Sasuke's fault. Whatever he did to Sakura made both his teammates suffer terribly. If leaving them 3 years ago wasn't enough to hurt them, then whatever he did to Sakura cracked the close friendship between Team 7. Ino promised herself that if she was to ever see Sasuke again she would slit his throat with a rusty kunai.
The two blondes stayed like that for sometime until Hinata came out to tell them that break was over. Of course when she saw that her boyfriend was crying she quickly ran to his side to see what happened.
"Naruto-kun what's wrong?" Hinata asked concern written all over her face.
Naruto gently pushed Ino off of him and wiped his eyes. Turning to his girlfriend he smiled brightly at her. "Ino-chan told me that they were discontinuing my favorite brand of ramen. Sorry that I got to emotional on you Ino." He gave her the look to play along.
Ino sighed at the boy before she went with him on the game. "Naruto the next time you cry over something make sure that it's a good reason. Not everyone will let you cry on their shoulder because of ramen." It had a double meaning to it but only Naruto got it for he nodded his head and stood up.
Hinata shook her head at her boyfriend's antics. "Naruto there's more to life than ramen. I seriously thought that you were upset over something important." The two started to walk away but they noticed that someone wasn't with them.
Naruto turned his head to look at Ino, who was still on the ground. "Ino are you coming or not?"
Ino looked up at the blue sky, then she turned her head to look at the two. "I don't think so. I think I'm going to look for Sakura. I have a strong feeling that she needs someone with her today."
That comment threw Naruto off a little. He remembered back in their genin days when Ino couldn't care less about Sakura's feelings, but now it looked like they really were starting to become best friends again.
He started to walk away again but not before giving Ino one final word. "I might not know exactly where Sakura is, but if I were you I would look at the places that you two always hanged out at when you were younger. It's a great place to start looking." Then he left with Hinata at his side leaving Ino all alone.
Ino smiled at the blonde's retreating back having somewhat of an idea where Sakura was. "Naruto you can be such a baka." Ino whispered to herself.
----------------
'Dammit I looked almost everywhere, where could she be?' Ino thought to herself as she walked down an abandoned street. It was now almost sunset and she'd been searching for Sakura for around 4 hours. She looked at the park that they used to play in, their apartment, the academy, Team 7's training grounds, the Hokage Tower, EVERYWHERE!
"Naruto you could have given me a better clue." Ino ranted to herself.
Suddenly she realized what street she was on. It was the Haruno Clan district. This was where all of Sakura's family members lived for generations. Every member owned one house on the street and even though they weren't as large as the Uchiha mansions they were still fairly big.
Ino stopped in her tracks, her eyes were wide in shock as realization hit her full force. "She's been home the whole time. I remember now we always used to hang out at Sakura's house. Her mother used to make the best food." A faraway look crossed her face as she remembered Haruno Sora's famous home cooked meals.
Grinning that she finally understood what Naruto was refering to she made a mad dash to Sakura's house. "Don't worry Sakura you won't be alone for long!" She declared but added as an after thought. "Though I'm not telling her how long it took me to find her."
Sakura's house was always the house at the end of the street because it was the Clan Leader's house. Apparently that right belonged to Haruno Tenshi, but when he died it was passed on to his only daughter. Most of the Haruno's were killed in the ninja wars so the only important ones left were Tenshi and Sakura, now only Sakura remained.
'That has to be a hard burden to hold. Being the only member of your clan left, maybe that's why Sasuke went completely insane. In my own way I'm kind of glad that I still have family members left. I would hate to be the only Yamanaka left.' Once Ino thought that she felt terrible. It wasn't Sakura's fault that she had no one left except for her mother. Ino was just happy that her best friend at least still had her mom.
Ino saw that she was nearing Sakura's house because she just passed the dented mailbox that she always ran past as a child. Actually the reason the mailbox was dented in the first place was because Sakura didn't look where she was going and slammed her forehead right into the hard metal. Once Sakura saw a little bit of her blood slide down her face she started crying and screaming. Thank god Sora was nearby to calm Sakura down because Ino didn't know what to do, they were only 7. Ino was amazed that Sora calmed the pink haired girl down in the first place. Of course Sakura always tried her hardest to be strong for her mother no matter what. Ino never met anyone who didn't love their mom more, and as terrible as it sounded she didn't even love her parents as much as Sakura loved her mom.
She reached the front door and noticed that it was left slightly open. The blonde sighed in annoyance at Sakura's inability to shut a door all the way. That was one bad habit that Sakura had to drop. As quietly as she could she opened the door and eased herself in the building. Ino decided that she would surprise Sakura instead of shouting for her.
The first thing that she noticed was the fact that all the lights were out and it was extremely dark. The second thing was that Sakura's black boots were neatly placed by the front door.
"Well there's no doubt about it, Sakura's in here somewhere." Ino said to herself, taking her shoes off and putting them beside Sakura's. Even though Ino was here a lot in her youth she had actually only been in Sakura's room, the living room, the bathroom, and the kitchen. Anywhere else seemed unimportant or Sora didn't want them to play in that room.
Suddenly Ino heard the sound of a piano playing. She was so startled by the noise that she jumped in the air and smacked her head into the wall.
"Dammit that hurt." Ino said gently rubbing her head to ease the throbbing.
Only when the pain went away did Ino actually take notice of the music again. It was a slow melody that seemed very emotional, if you could describe it as that. The way it sounded made it feel like the music itself was crying, like it was in some horrible pain. No matter what way you looked at it the music was beautiful and soothing to the ears.
"I wonder who could be playing it?" Ino asked herself mesmerized by the soft melody that seemed to tug at her heart.
She followed the noise figuring that if she found the person playing she could ask where Sakura was. It seemed that the closer she got to the musician the sadder the music became. Soon she was able to tell that the person was singing as well.
Na
na, na na na, na na
I miss you, miss you so bad
I don't forget
you, oh it's so sad
I hope you can hear me
I remember it
clearly
The singer was definately a female, no man could sound like that. Ino was amazed that someone could sound so beautiful, but yet sound so broken at the same time.
The
day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the
same
Ooooh
Na na na na na na na
As Ino walked up a staircase she couldn't help the tear that slipped from her right eye. This person seemed to be in so much pain, the way the melody played and the song itself. It was all so sad.
I
didn't get around to kiss you
Goodbye on the hand
I wish that I
could see you again
I know that I can't
Oooooh
I hope
you can hear me cause I remember it clearly
Something seemed to smell like blood. It was probably dry by now, but still you could smell it. 'What could have happened here?' Ino asked herself.
The
day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the
same
Ooooh
I had my wake up
Won't you wake up
I keep
asking why
And I can't take it
It wasn't fake
It happened,
you passed by
A shiver ran down Ino's spine, as she started to hug herself to bring her some sort of comfort. The sun already set so it was now night and of all days it turned out to be a full moon. Ino walked down a lone hallway that was pitch black. She could tell that there was a door at the end of the hallway because light shown through the cracks.
Ino slowly made her way to the door, the music getting louder by the second as the artist's sorrow filled voice seemed to be stabbing daggers through Ino's heart.
Now
you are gone, now you are gone
There you go, there you
go
Somewhere I can't bring you back
Now you are gone, now you
are gone
There you go, there you go,
Somewhere you're not
coming back
She's never been in this side of the building before so when she reached the door she couldn't help but tremble in fear. As sad as it sounded she was scared of what was on the other side of the door. It could be anything. 'Come on Ino you are a kunoichi, you've been through worse.' She grabbed the door knob and slowly turned it, hoping that the person on other side didn't hear her.
The
day you slipped away
Was the day I found it won't be the same
noo..
The day you slipped away
Was the day that I found it
won't be the same oooh...
She pushed the door open and her breath hitched in her throat when her eyes laid on the person playing the piano. Thanks to the moonlight Ino was able to see the girl's beautiful face as she sang her heart out. Tears streamed down her pale face and her eyes were closed. Ino stood there in the doorway too godsmacked to move an inch.
Na
na, na na na, na na
I miss you
The girl finished the song, but her eyes remained closed almost like she refused to face reality. Ino decided to make some noise to make her presence known, but it was hard to get the words out of her mouth.
Finally after what seemed like years she was able to utter one word. "Sakura..." She whispered, but because it was so silent it seemed like she screamed it.
Instantly Sakura opened her eyes and stared at Ino in surprise. "Ino what are you doing here?"
Now Ino's mission seemed to come back to her as she walked over to where Sakura was. "I came here to give you company. I figured you needed some."
Sakura turned away from Ino and wiped the tears off of her face. "You're wrong I don't need anyone's company. I want to be alone."
Lightly sitting down next to her Ino placed her hand on Sakura's shoulder. "Then why were you crying?"
"What I do alone is none of your concern!" Sakura snapped still not looking Ino in the face.
A stab of pain hit Ino's heart as Sakura told her those words. "Do you really think like that Sakura? Am I such a pest that you don't want me in your life anymore? Don't worry I'll leave you alone."
She got up and started to walk away from the pink haired girl. Before she was even a foot apart from her Sakura shot her hand out and grabbed her hand. The blonde looked at her hand in confusion, waiting for Sakura to answer.
They both stayed that way in silence, with Ino looking at their joined hands and Sakura still looking the other way. Finally after 5 minutes Sakura spoke. "Ino you're anything but a pest. It's just that...I don't know what to do with myself anymore." Ino's eyes widened in shock when she saw Sakura's body start to shake. A choked sob escaped her throat, the young pinkette placed her free hand over her mouth to still her crying. After a while she continued with what she was saying. "At first I tried to be strong, but the more I started to live the more I started to fall apart. I can't even pretended that nothing ever happened because I can't stop thinking about it. I hate myself so much! I get disgusted with myself everytime I look in the fucking mirror. Sometimes I wished that he killed me too so that I can stop living in this hell, but that wouldn't be fair to any of you. I just don't know what to do anymore! I want this pain to end!" Then Sakura completely broke down in a fit of sobs.
Ino didn't waste anytime in grabbing her best friend and wrapping her up in her arms. Sakura buried her face into the blonde's chest as Ino held onto her in a tight grip. They stayed that way for a long time but Ino didn't mind, her friend needed her and she was only happy to help.
Once Sakura was finally done crying she slowly pulled away from Ino and lightly smiled at her then her eyes landed on her friends soaked shirt. She blushed a little in embarrassment. "Sorry for getting your clothes all wet."
She couldn't help the giggle that escaped her throat. Sakura just looked so damn cute with that innocent face and childish attitude. "Don't worry about it Saku-chan. Glad that I could help you out." She was completely honest with her words.
"Why do you always call me Saku-chan? It's embarrassing." Sakura pouted, her jade eyes boreing into hers.
'Must resist the cuteness factor.' Ino thought to herself when she saw Sakura's pout. She looked sooooooo cute when she did it. Right now Ino had the urge to kiss those lips, but she forced that feeling back.
"So do you mind telling me what got you so down? I know that it has something to do with what happened to you 4 months ago." Ino decided to switch the topic to save herself and Sakura's mind. Lord knows what the girl would do if all of a sudden her best friend kissed her.
Almost instantly Sakura's mood switched and she was sad again. She looked away from Ino and bit her bottom lip. "Ino-chan I really don't want to tell you. I don't want to get you involved."
The blonde gently grabbed the young Haruno's chin and moved her head so that they were looking each other in the eyes. "Sakura...you're my best friend whether I know about it or not I will get involved. I want to get involved because I care about you." Of course both girls didn't realize to what extent that meant.
"Okay I'll tell you, but I'll tell you when I'm ready." Sakura answered shyly, resembling her younger self.
"Can it at least be today? We can talk about something else till you feel that you can talk about it." Ino suggested wanting to know now and not wait months on end. She knew Sakura more than anyone so she knew that this was another excuse to keep her in the dark.
"Ummm...I guess. I would tell you now but I doubt I'm strong enough to tell you at this instant. I promise by the end of the night I'll tell you." Sakura declared smiling shyly at her friend.
"Okay then let's change the topic." Ino muttered to herself trying to find a topic. Her eyes landed on the piano in front of her. "So when did you learn to play the piano? And since when can you sing like that?" She asked wanting to know because for most of her life she was led to believe that Sakura didn't have a musical bone in her body.
Sakura blushed a bright red as she looked at her lap. "I've been playing the piano since I was 4 and I've been singing since I was 7. My dad used to play the piano when he was younger and when my mom discovered that I had a lot of talent she forced me to take lessons."
Ino was shocked that she had been playing for so long. Well it explained why she was so good. Though she couldn't help but be a little hurt that her friend never told her. "And why haven't I heard about this till now. I thought we were friends?" Okay so she was a little harsh, but come on she was just finding this stuff out even though they'd been friends for years!
The medic nin winced at Ino's harsh tone not understanding why she was so mad about this. "To be honest I was kind of embarrassed to tell you. I mean whoever heard of a kunoichi who can play the piano? It was something that would never help me on the battlefield. Besides it felt like it was a special secret between me and my mom. I loved those moments when it was just me playing one of dad's songs to her and she would just get this smile on her face. She looked like an angel when she smiled like that! I guess another reason why I didn't tell you was because I didn't want to ruin my bonding with my mom." Sakura finished a serene smile on her face as she told her that story.
The blonde felt happy for her friend, but then she went over the first thing she said to her and instantly became upset again. "Sakura why would you ever be embarrassed about something like that!" Ino exclaimed. She honestly thought it was awesome that Sakura could play the piano like that.
"Ino come on you were the most popular girl in our class! I didn't want you to look down on me." She told her friend all traces of her earlier happiness gone.
Ino reached her hand out, clasped Sakura's hand, and gently squeezed it. "I would never look down on you Sakura. Please tell me you got that by now."
Sakura smiled thoughtfully to herself. "Of course I realized that now, but back then I didn't. I alway's thought that I was your shadow, your sidekick, one of your inferiors. Desperately I tried to be your equal. Even going as far as to act and dress like you! At some point in time I guess I realized that in order for you to actually acknowledge me for who I am I had to break away from you. I regret that I ever did it and yet at the same time I don't. To be honest I wouldn't be the person I am today if I stayed as your friend, but also I can't forget that your friendship was what gave me confidence. I guess I was foolish." She finished sadly placing her other hand over top of Ino's.
"Your not the only fool Sakura. I was so wrapped up in Sasuke that I completely forgot about your feelings. Then when you announced that you liked him instead of being happy for you I was mad. Maybe if I was more aware of your feelings then I could have figured out that you didn't even like him." Ino replied not letting Sakura take all the blame.
"To be honest back then I had a crush on Shikamaru not Sasuke." Sakura said making Ino look at her like she was crazy.
"You actually liked that lazy ass back then! Sheesh Naruto was better than Shikamaru back then! Of all people are you sure you liked him?" Ino questioned not being able to wrap this information around her head.
Sakura blushed a little and giggled nervously to show her discomfort. "Don't ask me I just liked him! You think I'm not weirded out by that enough! Besides who are you to talk when you went out with him and slept with him!"
Instead of answering her Ino started to laugh making Sakura look at her like she was crazy. "Ino are you on something?" The pink haired girl asked.
"No I just can't help but laugh everytime someone talks about me and Shika dating. That whole 6 months was so weird. We still couldn't believe that we went out together." Ino explained once she stopped laughing.
"Yamanaka I still think you're on something." Sakura declared crossing her arms over her chest.
Ino decided that instead of making a clever retort she would just tackle Sakura to the ground. So with quick reflexes Ino shoved into Sakura, catching the young girl off guard. Both fell to the ground in a heep with Ino on the top.
Sakura groaned in pain because she bashed her head on the floor. Her eyes were shut tight and she could feel a body pressed tightly to hers.
On shakey hands Ino tried to prop herself up but ended up falling on top of Sakura again. 'Okay maybe this wasn't one of my most well thought out plans.'
Soon she realized that her head was right beside Sakura's right ear. Once again she tried to push herself up, but just when she was about to she got a wiff of her friends hair. It smelt of strawberries and cherry blossoms, how ironic that she smelled just like a cherry blossom and resembled one too! At that exact time that she smelled Sakura's hair her mind completely shut down and her body took control. Which wasn't a good thing for both of them.
Gently Ino scooted closer to the pinkette's ear. She had no idea what she was doing but for some reason words spilled out of her mouth. "Do you want to experience something amazing?" Her voice was so husky and filled with lust that it even scared her. Never in her life had she gotten this turned on by someone and all she did was smell her hair!
When Ino said those words a memory seemed to have triggered inside Sakura's head.
-----------
Rough lips lowered down to her ear. She struggled against his grip, but he was too powerful. With all his might he bit her ear lobe, drawing blood where he bit her. Sakura would never give him the satisfaction to see her in pain so she just screamed inside mentally.
"Do you want to experience something amazing?" The man asked taunting her. She could feel his disgusting smirk against the crook of her neck before he took a taste of her neck.
-----------
"Stop..." Sakura whispered weakly as Ino was about to gently suckle on her ear lobe. "Please..."
Almost instantly Ino jumped off of Sakura acting like the girl was on fire. Her voice sounded so frightened that it snapped Ino out of her lust filled daze.
'Was I just about to do what I thought that I was about to do? If it was almost suck on Sakura's ear lobe then I'm right. OH MY GOD!!! Seriously what is wrong with me I like MEN not WOMEN!' Ino shouted mentally in her mind.
A soft sniffle brought the blonde out of her thoughts. Looking down at her best friend she realized that she was crying again only much harder than before. Keeping a hand over her mouth the girl tried to cover her sobs, but soon they were getting louder and harder to manage. Her eyes held a look of pure fear as her whole body shook.
Ino reached out to grab Sakura's shoulder, but the girl pushed herself away from her and backed herself up against the wall. Her arms were covering her head and she was shaking really bad. She almost looked like a scared little animal with the way she was cowering.
Quickly Ino went over to Sakura and tried to snap some sense into her. "Sakura it's me, Ino. I'm not going to hurt you." She calmly told her even though her mind was the exact opposite.
Once again she tried to touch Sakura's shoulder but when her hand barely grazed her left shoulder the young girl shuddered and screamed out. "PLEASE DON'T HURT ME!!!!"
The blonde stood frozen in shock at her best friend's outburst. Never in her life had she seen Sakura so hysterical and scared. Pain shot through Ino's heart knowing that somehow she triggered this fear inside of her.
"Sakura please calm down you know that I would never hurt you. This isn't like you at all." Ino tried to say to her friend who was now was hugging her knees close to her chest.
To the Yamanaka's shock the young Haruno answered her. "Yes it is. Ever since that night this is all that I've been feeling, especially at night when I'm all alone." Slowly but surely the girl was starting to calm down but she refused to let Ino touch her.
After Sakura was done freaking out Ino decided to ask the one question that had been bothering her for weeks now. "Sakura what did Sasuke do to you that made you feel like this?"
Sakura took a deep breathe and pulled her knees closer to her body. "He took away two of the most important things in my life." Then she started to tell her story.
------------------
(4 Months Ago)
"Naruto what the hell!" Sakura yelled when she saw Naruto devour 15 bowls of ramen in under 5 minutes. "If you keep eating like that you're on a one way ticket to the hospital!"
Naruto lowered his 16th bowl of ramen to grin at his teammate. "Well then I have a chance to spend more time with you." He flirted with her before going back to eating.
Sakura blushed a little but soon got over it and bopped him on the head. "Baka."
Right now Naruto and Sakura were eating at the ramen bar. They had been there for about an hour. Kakashi came to eat as well but left early because he had papers to fill out for Tsunade. Today was the only day that Team 7 had no missions in over a month! Tsunade figured that they needed a day off.
"So Naruto how's your training going?" Sakura asked to make small talk. It was only 7 in the afternoon and she didn't feel like going home real early.
Quickly Naruto started talking animatedly about a super cool jutsu that Jiraiya was teaching him. For the next hour they talked about how their training had been going and how crazy their sensei's were. Of course they knew how the othe'rs training had been going but it was nice to talk more in depth about the topic.
"Hey put this bill on Kakashi-sensei's tab." Naruto told the cook once he saw how much the food cost.
"You know when Kaka-sensei finds out he won't be too happy." Sakura said as they walked out of the restaurant.
Naruto placed his hands on the back of his head and snorted. "Does it matter Sakura-chan? He's a super pervert that deserves to be punished. Same thing with Ero-sannin."
The pinkette smirked at her teammate silently agreeing with him. "TAKE THAT PERVERTS!!" Inner Sakura screamed in Sakura's head.
Suddenly Sakura remembered that her mother wanted her home before 9 tonight. She looked at a clock hanging in a store window and winced at the time. Damn if she didn't hurry she would be late and her mother was never a pleasant person to deal with when you broke curfew.
"I'm sorry Naruto but I have to leave right now or my mom will kill me." Sakura interrupted whatever the blonde boy was ranting about.
A sad look passed Naruto's face and Sakura felt like kicking herself at her stupidity. The poor boy never knew what it was like to have parents so whenever someone brought up that subject he would get all depressed.
"Hey I'll make it up to you. How about you take me out on a date?" Sakura suggested knowing that this would brighten the boy's mood considerably.
Instantly a huge grin was plastered on Naruto's face. "Do you really mean it Sakura-chan? A real date?"
"Yes but we'll talk about it later. Bye Naruto." She ran in the direction of her house hoping that she wouldn't break curfew.
Ever since her grandparents had died 2 years ago it had just been her and Sora living in the Haruno distict. When she was a little girl her mother would always leave all the house lights on when she was out past dark. That way when she got scared of the dark she would always know that her mom was there for her. It brought a sense of comfort everytime she saw those lights on this dark and lonely street.
That was why when she saw that the lights weren't on Sakura got a sense of foreboding.
Never in all her life had her mom ever forgot to turn the lights on for her. Still she ran to her house but made sure to take precaution to the things around her.
Reaching her house a couple of minutes later, Sakura slowly opened the front door. She got a very bad feeling in her stomach once she entered the building and shut the door behind her.
"Ummm...mom I'm home!" Sakura nervously called out. When her mother didn't answer Sakura took a kunai out of her pouch and held it close to her side.
Soon she checked every room hoping to find her mom sleeping in one of them. 'It doesn't seem like someone broke in and there doesn't seem to be a struggle. Mom was a kunoichi so if she was attacked she would put up a fight. Watch she's probably sleeping by the piano like she usually does.' Sakura thought over in her mind. Well it wasn't the first time her mom randomly fell asleep somewhere since she spent half the nights worrying over Sakura whenever she went out on a mission. Ever since her father passed away Sora had found it really hard to let her only daughter go out on dangerous missions.
Sakura walked to the music room knowing that her mother was probably in there. She reached the long hallway that led to the room and she was once again struck with a feeling of dread. Her senses were telling her something was terribly wrong and she should just turn the other way around. The young girl paid no heed to her feelings playing them off as a little childish fear.
Once she reached the door Sakura gently pushed it open. The first thing she noticed were the candles placed in certain parts of the room to illuminate the room. The second thing she noticed was that her mom wasn't sitting at the piano.
Now Sakura was starting to get scared. "Mom are you in here?" She asked as she walked into the room.
Out of nowhere she heard a muffled noise on her right. Sakura quickly turned her head and felt her breath leave her.
There was a figure hanging on the wall. The thing that freaked her out though was how the person was being suspended on the wall. Knives were stabbed into the persons wrists, shoulders, legs, and stomach. Blood flowed steadily from underneath the persons feet as the figure moaned in pain. All you could smell was the scent of blood as it stained the walls the person was suspended from.
Sakura walked closer to the person and upon closer examination she discovered who the person hanging on the wall was. Pale blond hair was sticking to the persons femine face as their mouth was covered by tape.
Tears welled up in the young girls eyes as she ran to the woman, still making sure to hold onto her kunai. "Mom are you okay? What happened?" She pleaded with the barely conscious figure of her mother.
It looked like whatever funk Sora was in seemed to disappear when she heard her daughter's voice. Slowly she lifted her head to see her daughter's concerned face. Suddenly she saw a black figure right behind Sakura. She tried to get her attention by warning her.
Of course Sakura didn't understand a word her mom was trying to say. "Mom wait a second let me remove that piece of tape." She quickly ripped the tape off causing Sora to gasp in pain, but she got over that once she saw the dark figure.
"SAKURA BEHIND YOU!!" Sora shouted with all her might, but it was too late.
Sakura didn't even have a chance to turn around before she felt a stab of pain in her neck. Her kunai fell to the floor with a loud clang. One musclar arm was wrapped around her neck while the other arm was injecting something into her body.
Soon Sakura felt her eyelids droop as sleep overcame her, but before she fell into a dreamless sleep a voice whispered into her ear. "Go to sleep now Sakura. The fun will soon begin." Then her body fell limp as she fell asleep.
----------------
Sakura could vaguely hear voices talking to each other. She realized that she was in a lot of pain and she couldn't sense her chakra at all. Her eyes weren't open and she noticed that she seemed to be laying in a weird position. Deciding that it would be better to pretend to be asleep she listened intently to the voices.
"Hmmm...looks like you only have a couple of minutes left to live." A cocky voice drawled out. The way the person talked seemed so familar to her but she couldn't put a name or a face to this person.
"I don't care what happens to me just leave Sakura alone." Another voice said. Sakura reconized this voice as her mothers.
"You mean if I did something like this." Sakura heard the sound of feet walking towards her. Before she could even grasp what was happening she felt a sharp pain in her stomach and was sent flying into a wall. She realized that this asshole kicked her really hard in the stomach.
"SAKURA!!!" Sora screamed to her daughters prone body. "Why are you doing this? Weren't you two on the same team? I thought you were friends?"
'Wait what did she just say?' Sakura thought as she struggled to get up. She decided that it wouldn't be wise to pretend to be sleeping when this person would willingly kick her while she was down.
The voice of her attacker brought her out of her thoughts. "Well looks like you're finally up. We missed your company." Whoever this person was seemed to be mocking her and it pissed her off.
Her eyes were stilled closed as she sat up against the wall breathing heavily. It seemed that just moving her body put a great effort on her stamina.
The man started clicking his tongue. "Well this won't do at all. I want you to see me when I take the life of your weak mother."
Suddenly she felt a hand place itself on top on her head. His fingers clenched into a fist grabbing a huge piece on her hair. The person slowly picked up Sakura by her hair causing the young girl to scream in pain. The last time someone grabbed her hair like that was in the chuunin exams where she ended up cutting half of it off.
"Why don't you shut the hell up!" The man commanded before slamming the pinkettes head into the wall.
Tears started to form in the young girls eyes. This hurt like hell and that blow to the head didn't help her at all. Apparently the man must have realized that he was really hurting her because he let go of her hair but before she fell back to the ground he wrapped his hand around her throat.
"Now open your eyes Sakura." The man told her, but when Sakura didn't heed to this demands he pressed roughly against her throat. "OPEN YOUR EYES!!"
She was so scared that she had no choice but to listen to him. With great diffculty Sakura slowly opened her jade green eyes. Once her eyes landed on the figure she felt like she was smacked right in the face.
Onyx eyes stared coldly into her shocked ones, black hair shining by the candle light. An evil smirked was placed on his face, and even though he looked menacing he was still as handsome as ever.
"Sa...Sasuke?" Sakura choked out glad that she was able to drop the kun that she normally attached to his name.
If it was possible Sasuke's smirk got even bigger when Sakura talked. Oh he loved it when people looked at him in fear. "Aren't you happy I'm here?" He joked with her loving her pain. Hell he practically could taste it and he savored every minute of it.
"You're supposed to be with that snake-bastard! You're a missing nin Sasuke what the hell are you doing here?" Sakura exclaimed not understanding why he was here when the last time she saw him he wanted nothing to do with Team 7. He tried to kill Naruto and her even though they hadn't seen each other for two and a half years.
"Doing what I should have done when I was thirteen." Sasuke replied dropping Sakura to the floor. He almost laughed when he saw her wince in pain.
He turned away from her and started to walk over to the woman hanging on the wall. Sakura tried to stand up and stop him but her legs gave out under her and she landed face first on the ground. Sasuke got closer to her mom and unsheathed his long sword.
"DON'T HURT HER!!!" Sakura screamed out the tears that were in her eyes freely falling down her cheeks. She tried to stand up again put it proved to be futile.
"Hahahaha. Like you can really do anything in your position. You're far too weak to stop me." Sasuke taunted her now facing Sora. He smiled at the young girl's desperation, it reminded him of when he was younger and he tried to stop his brother from killing his clan.
"So any last words." The dark haired man asked his victim. It was a tradition that he followed by when he first started killing people. He would give them their last words and then he would take their life.
Sora slowly picked up her head. She knew that either way she was going to die whether by this boy's blade or blood loss. The dying woman looked past her murderer and into the eyes of her daughter. The poor girl was desperate to save her and she clearly saw the fear in her eyes. 'Tenshi looks like Sakura is like you in more ways than one. Trying everything in her power to save the ones she loved. Just like you.' She thought to herself a serene smile on her face. She did what her husband wanted her to do and that was raise their daughter right.
"Sakura...it's okay please don't cry anymore. Don't be so sad over my death at least I'll be with your father in heaven. My only regret is that I'll be leaving you all alone and that was the one thing that I never wished on you. Maybe thats why I was such an overbearing mother. I just hope that you understand that I love you more than life itself. Your father and I will look out for you in heaven. Please live a long and happy life Sakura that's my only wish. I love you honey." Sora finished saying her final farewells just as Sasuke plunged his sword into her heart, killing her instantly.
"NOOOOOO!!!" Sakura screamed in horror, witnessing the murder of the one person that she loved above everyone else. Now she was truly and completely alone.
Laughter brought Sakura out of her sadness. She looked to the person laughing feeling her hatred for him start to boil inside of her.
"I'M GOING TO KILL YOU!!" Sakura declared with newfound strength as she stood up and ran at Sasuke. The pinkette pulled her hand back ready to punch him in the face.
When she was barely an inch away from him something latched onto her arms and pulled her back. Sakura was caught off guard and couldn't fight the things from sending her flying back into a wall. Her body groaned in protest as she tried to move her arms finding that whatever attacked her was holding her up against the wall. She turned her head to discover that snakes were attached to both of her forearms, blood leaked from the bite marks. It seemed that somehow they came out of the wall.
"I thought that you were going to kill me?" Sasuke asked still standing in front of Sora's body.
"Oh don't worry I will kill you. You just caught me off guard." Sakura panted feeling her energy start to go away again.
"Looks like the poison I gave you is working. That's good." Sasuke said putting his sword away.
Now Sakura understood why she was so low on chakra that bastard had poisoned her! "Hmph... looks like you have to resort to dirty tricks in order to defeat your opponents."
Just like the last time they met Sasuke suddenly appeared in front of her. She was so caught off guard that she gasped in fright. The Uchiha smirked at her discomfort before punching her in the face.
Sakura refused to show him that she was in pain so she took the hit without a word. Apparently Sasuke was angered by her lack of emotion so he punched her in the stomach.
Again the pinkette made no sound which pissed him off more. Hit after hit, but still Sakura took the pain even though she wished she was dead right now. It hurt so damn much, the physical and mental pain.
Blood stained the boy's fists and he relished at the feeling. Ever since he joined Orochimaru he found that blood seemed to be some sort of comfort in him.
He brought his fist back and prepared for another blow when Sakura's weak voice stopped him.
"Why...why did you do this?" She asked unemotionally. Her head was down and she was panting. Her body was about to give out on her but she refused to show any weakness to her mother's killer.
Sasuke laughed cruely at the girl. Placing his left hand under her chin and gently lifting her head up so that they were face to face. Using his right hand he gently caressed her right cheek. "Because Sakura I'm here to finish what I was supposed to do when I was 13." He explained to her treating her like a child.
When the young girl looked at him in confusion he decided to go further in depth. "I told you on that night that I broke my bonds with you and Naruto. I figured that after I left you on that bench and tried to kill Naruto that you two would take a hint. To my surprise you two are more stubborn than I imagined.
"When I saw that you two were still chasing after me even though its been two and a half years I knew that I had to do something else. Apparently neither of you gives a damn about what happens to you so I had to come up with a plan to finally break my bonds with Team 7. I thought about my past with you guys and I realized where your strength and your weaknesses truly lie. Your precious people! But I had to find the one person that you two hold above everyone else. Naruto's was very easy and after much thinking so was yours.
"Naruto always cared for you above everyone else and would give his life up for you just so you would be happy. He finds his inner strength in you and when you're sad or hurt he feels it too. Face it Sakura whether you date him or be his friend you will always be his center of the universe.
"With you was a little more difficult because to be honest I never really got to know you for who you are. So I spied on you for the past couples weeks. I realized that your friends are your planets and your mother is your sun. That is logical because your parents are always who you care about the most no matter how they treat you. I myself treasured my mother more than anything in the world and lived under my father's words." He was about to continue when Sakura rudely interrupted him.
"Sasuke I never found you the type to ramble on. Why don't you get to the fucking point!" Sakura demanded not wanting him anywhere near her right now.
If Sasuke was about to hit her he decided against it for he knew she would pay for it later.
"Anyway I decided to break our bonds by hurting the people closest to you and Naruto. I remember I was so hurt and lost when Itachi killed my parents so I settled on killing your mother while you watch helplessly. I see that my plan worked because I doubt you see me as a friend anymore."
"You're right about that one, but Naruto won't stop chasing after you Sasuke. He still sees you as his best friend." Sakura told him.
"That's why I need to show him that I have turned completely evil. In order to show him that I need your help." Sasuke said leaning forward a little towards her face.
"I'll never help you hurt Naruto! I don't care what you do to me but Naruto has suffered enough over the years leave him out of this!" Sakura yelled at the young man in front of her.
"I can't Sakura. In order to finally break my bonds with Team 7 I have to hurt both of you. Kakashi gave up on me a long time ago and now so have you, all I need to do is have Naruto give up too."
"What has Orochimaru done to you Sasuke? Are you that far in the darkness that you'll hurt even your closest friends?"
"Ha! Orochimaru showed me the light within the darkness. He gave me what friendship could not and that was power, but in order to get stronger I have to truly destroy my friendship."
"Then why not just kill Naruto and I? Why are you letting us live if you don't want us to be your friends anymore. You didn't even hesitate when you killed my mom so why are you letting us live?" Sakura questioned not understanding Sasuke at all. She tried to keep her emotions in check but it was getting harder and harder not to cry when out of the corner of her eye she saw her mom's corpse. It didn't help that she was being touched by her mom's killer and that her blood was being smeared on her cheek.
"I'm sparing your lives on a whim." Sasuke said those familar words making Sakura's eyes go wide in shock. "Orochimaru has noticed that you guys have been taking care of some Akatsuki members so if we keep you alive then you might take down some more. Also I'd rather enjoy your suffering then just end your life. But enough of that I have to get plan two in motion."
"Wha...what is your plan?" Sakura asked hating herself for trembling in fear.
Sasuke smirked at Sakura before he told her his plan. "Plan one was to break my bond with you. Plan two is to break my bond with Naruto. It's as simple as that."
He leaned in really close to her right ear and whispered evily. "Now it's time for you to experience true fear."
The snakes that were holding Sakura to the wall released her and disappeared back into the wall. The pinkette was so drained that she fell into Sasukes arms.
"Hmmm...looks like this will be fun." Sasuke said lowering the girl on the ground. He stood over top of her a smirk across his features. Slowly he took of his shirt and his oversized purple belt, now he was just wearing his black pants but they were hanging loosely to his body.
Sakura realized what he was planning to do and she quickly tried to get up. A sharp pain in her ribs caused her to yell out in pain and fall back down to the ground. 'Fuck he must have broken a couple of my ribs with all those punches. Dammit I need to move, I need to get the hell out of here. I can't let him touch me.' She thought over in her mind.
She tried to get up again but this time Sasuke laid his body over top of hers. Using what little strength she had left she tried to push him off of her so that she could run, but Sasuke gripped both her wrists with one hand and forced them above her head.
Rough lips lowered down to her ear. She struggled against his grip, but he was too powerful. With all his might he bit her ear lobe, drawing blood where he bit her. Sakura would never give him the satisfaction to see her in pain so she just screamed inside mentally.
"Do you want to experience something amazing?" The man asked taunting her. She could feel his disgusting smirk against the crook of her neck before he took a taste of her neck.
Once he drew blood he stopped sucking her neck and went straight to her lips. He wasn't gentle at all and every couple of seconds he would bite her bottom lip. Sasuke forced his tongue in her mouth and explored a little.
Inside Sakura felt like crying. This was her very first kiss and it was anything but perfect. In fact it was a nightmare and with each touch she felt her soul die little by little.
Sasuke moved his right hand down to her right breast. She could feel him frown a little before he pulled away from her lips, much to Sakura's delight. But that happiness was short lived as Sasuke uttered this next sentence.
"These have to go." He told her grabbing the zipper of her vest.
"Don't touch me!" Sakura screamed trying hard to get out of his grip. The dark haired Uchiha smiled as he leaned in for another kiss, silencing the girl.
"You're in no position to give me orders. If you want to blame someone for this blame Naruto and yourself for not giving up on me." Sasuke said unzipping Sakura's vest and ripping it off of her body.
The young girl shivered as the cold air hit her exposed stomach. "A ninja must see underneath the underneath. Those who break the rule and codes of the ninja world are called trash. But you know what, those who don't take care of their comrades are even lower than trash. Unlike you, Naruto and I follow this way of the ninja. That's why we never stopped searching for you because you were our comrade and our friend." Sakura told the man hoping that she could get him to rethink what he was about to do.
Sasuke starting laughing at her as he pulled a kunai out of his pouch and cut her bra off revealing her rather large breasts. "What good did that way of the ninja bring you? Look where you're at right now Sakura. It's all because you don't know when to play it smart and give up."
He grabbed one of her boobs and moaned at the feel of her breast, while the girl felt like throwing up in disgust. Never in her life had she felt this dirty, this revolted with herself.
"Looks like the cherry blossom has finally bloomed." Sasuke joked with her before he roughly squeezed her breast causing her to gasp in pain.
After a little bit of fondling Sasuke lowered his head down to her left breast. With his tongue he started licking her nipple until it grew hard then without warning he bit it as hard as he could.
Sakura screamed in pain as Sasuke attacked her chest. When he was done her breasts were bleeding from many bite marks. He pulled her in for another kiss loving every scream she made.
He pulled away from her and let go of her hands. She tried to get up but Sasuke slapped her across the face causing her to bash her head against the floor and leaving her in a daze.
"I have to tell you Sakura this is the best night I've had in a while. I mean I get to take a life and get a good fuck. What more could a guy like me ask for?" Sasuke mocked her grabbing his kunai again.
With the kunai he sliced a line horizontally across her stomach. It wasn't that deep to cause any life threatening problems, but it was deep enough to make her bleed.
"You want to know what turns me on the most?" Sasuke asked the young girl as he pulled her pants off and her panties.
All Sakura did was whimper watching Sasuke take his pants and underwear off revealing his boner. He had the most perfect body and his penis was really big, but Sakura wasn't ready for this. She didn't want this at all she was only 15 years old. Most girls would have already orgasmed at the sight of the Uchiha naked, but Sakura wanted to throw up. 'Please someone help me. I don't want this and I can't do anything to stop this. Someone...Naruto...Tsunade...Ino... anyone please save me!' Sakura screamed inside her head hoping against hope that someone would help her.
"The sight of a girl's blood." Sasuke told her making Sakura tremble in fear. This wasn't the Sasuke that she grew up with. No this person was a monster. Only a monster would willingly kill for fun and rape someone.
Sakura tried to sit up again but her head was throbbing and her body was too beaten to move. Sasuke went to her stomach and licked the blood off of her wound. The pinkette looked at him in disgust, but Sasuke just smiled at her, crawled up to her face and kissed her. She wanted to gag at the taste of her own blood in her mouth.
Once he was done kissing her Sasuke pulled away and positioned himself to get ready to penetrate her womanhood. To make her even more scared he decided to turn on his sharingan. He found out that women were more frightened of him when he had his bloodline limit activated. One even commented that he looked like a demon with those eyes.
Before he started he spread her legs out for a much easier access then he lowered his penis down to Sakura's vagina. He notice the girl tremble in fear and he got turned on even more. He pushed inside her he went further and further till he was literally stopped.
The grin that was on Sasuke's face became even wider when he realized what that meant.
"Isn't that cute you're still a virgin. Who would have thought that you would be a virgin for this long. This will definitely be more fun than I thought." He pulled himself out of her and positioned himself again.
Sakura couldn't even brace herself before he plunged himself back inside her. A pain that she had never experienced before shot through her whole body making her cry out. The tears that she held back for so long spilled over as Sakura felt something trickle down her legs.
When Sakura first found out about having sex she wanted her first time to be with someone very close and special to her heart. Soon after finding out about sex she found out that a woman's first time was always painful because they had something called a cherry. When it was broken it would cause a lot of pain but Sakura never imagined this. Well she also didn't imagine her first time to be like this. Being raped by who she used to consider a close friend while her mother's corpse wasn't even 10 feet away from her.
Sasuke pulled out and the young girl noticed that his dick was covered in blood. Her blood. She didn't even have enough time to take a breath before he thrusted himself back inside her, this time the pain was doubled.
In, out, in, out. Was all that that bastard did for what seemed like forever. The pain never got better it only increased and Sakura was about to go insane. With each thrust she cried out in pain and she knew that her privates were bleeding really bad. It didn't help that she was staring into the eyes of the devil himself. She felt so dirty and digusting.
After what seemed like ages Sasuke yelled in escasty as he orgasmed inside of her. Lowering his head he captured her lips and once again roughly bit her lip. This time Sakura didn't feel it because she was completely numb. First her mother was killed right in front of her and then she was brutally raped by someone that she thought she could trust.
"Sakura that was soooo good thank you." Sasuke evily smiled at her. He took himself out of her and stood up putting his pants and underwear back on. He picked his sword up and started mocking her. "You have no idea what it means to me that I was your first."
Suddenly they heard the sound of footsteps approaching the door. Both didn't expect someone to come so Sasuke went into a fighting stance.
A voice started shouting out. "Sakura-chan I'm sorry for coming by so late, but you forgot your wallet at the ramen bar. I wouldn't have come in but I thought I heard screaming so I wanted to check on you." It was Naruto on the other side of the door. Sasuke relaxed his stance and put his sword away then he picked up Sakura by the hair and propped her up against the wall. They heard the sound of a door knob turning before it was pushed open.
Naruto stepped into the room with a confused look on his face wondering why there were candles everywhere. He could smell fresh blood which caused him to pull a kunai out of his weapon pouch.
"Naruto glad you could join us." Sasuke called out to him making the blonde turn his head in their direction. He saw the dead body on the wall and a completely bruised, bleeding, and naked Sakura sitting up against the wall. That was when he saw a half naked Sasuke right beside her with a cocky smirk on his face.
The kunai dropped loudly to the ground as he took in everything with horrified eyes. Never in his life had he seen anything so graphic and terrible.
"Sas...Sasuke...what did you do to Sakura?" Naruto choked out not believing what he was seeing. Sasuke was their friend he wouldn't do what he thought he did? He couldn't be that evil?
"What does it looked like I did dobe? I killed her mother and raped her, but not before I got a few punches in." Sasuke said this like someone would talk about the weather.
"YOU BASTARD!!! WHY WOULD YOU DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT!!!" Naruto screamed as the kyuubi's chakra starting to spill out. His nails started to sharpen and his mouth started to grow canine teeth. Also his whiskers started to become thicker as his eyes turned a blood red.
"To break my bonds with you two. This is what happens when you can't take a hint and leave me alone. Blame yourselves not me."
"YOU BASTARD I THOUGHT THAT YOU CARED ABOUT HER!! I NEVER KNEW THAT YOU WOULD DO SOMETHING AS TERRIBLE AS THIS!!"
"What? Mad that you didn't get to her first? Well you snooze you lose Naruto."
"ROARRRRRRR!!!! YOU'RE GOING TO PAY!!!"
"Now I think my work here is done. Goodbye Sakura, dobe." Sasuke said grabbing the rest of his clothes and getting ready to leave.
"YOU ARE NOT GETTING AWAY THAT EASILY!!! THIS TIME I WILL NOT HESITATE TO KILL YOU FOR HURTING SAKURA-CHAN!!!" Naruto screamed, a tail starting to form behide his back.
Sasuke looked back at his ex-best friend. "Do you really think that you should chase after me? I believe that Sakura needs you more than I do."
As if to prove a point Sakura whimpered in pain causing Naruto to look in her direction. When he turned his head back to where Sasuke was he realized that he was gone. "Dammit he will pay." Naruto whispered under his breath.
Another whimper from Sakura caused Naruto to revert back to normal and run to her side. He winced at all the cuts and bruises on her body then he looked down to her private area. It was covered in blood and seamen. Her face was contorted in pain and her eyes looked so lifeless.
Naruto slowly touched her shoulder causing Sakura to violently flinch and scream. "PLEASE DON'T HURT ME ANYMORE!!"
He looked at his best friend in shock, but he really couldn't blame her for acting this way.
Tears fell down his face, he couldn't save her. He promised himself that he would always be there for her no matter what, but Sasuke managed to do something like this.
"Sakura please calm down it's me Naruto. I promise that I won't hurt you." Naruto reasoned with her taking his jacket off and draping it over her naked body.
Apparently his words snapped her out of it because she threw herself into his arms. She cried into his chest making the blonde hate himself even more.
"Sakura we have to take you to the hospital." He told her once she stopped crying.
"NO!! I don't want anyone finding out about this!" Sakura shouted pulling away from Naruto a little to look him in the eyes.
"You need to be checked out! At least let me take you to Tsunade's home. You and I both know she will understand."
"Um...I don't know Naruto. This isn't something that I want everyone to know."
"I'm taking you there anyway. Sakura you need to be healed and who better to heal you than Tsunade-baa-chan." Naruto then picked Sakura up bridal style. The pinkette screamed from the intense pain and the blonde felt his heart break in two.
He made sure that the jacket was securely on top of her. He would have used her clothes but Sasuke ripped them to shreds. Besides he assumed that Tsunade had spare clothes for her anyway.
Jumping from rooftop to rooftop Naruto ran at top speed to Tsunades house. Sakura was panting heavily and he could feel her blood seeping through his clothes. About five minutes later he made it to the hokages three story house. He knew she was still up because the lights were on, he just prayed to god that she wasn't drunk off her ass.
Suddenly Sakura started coughing, her whole body shook with each cough. Instantly Naruto stopped and looked down at her clearly concerned. Once he saw that she was coughing up blood he started running again for fear of losing her. Soon Sakura passed out from the pain and just laid limply in her friends arms.
They reached the front door and Naruto didn't even bother knocking so he just kicked it open.
"WHO THE HELL IS THERE!!" screamed Tsunade as she ran out of her living room and towards her front door. She was very pissed off because she was in the middle of an important meeting with Jiraiya and Kakashi about what to do with Orochimaru and Akatsuki.
Naruto ran into the house and towards the pissed off blonde. "Tsunade Sakura-chan was attacked and you have to heal her quickly or she will die!"
Instantly Tsunade's pissed off look was replaced with one of concern. "Naruto what happened? Where is she?" That was when Naruto realized that Sakura was being completely covered by his jacket. He didn't want her getting sick while he ran outside in the cold.
"She's underneath my jacket, but lets lay her down somewhere. Every movement I make causes her extreme pain." Naruto said.
"Okay follow me then." Tsunade told him acting very serious now that she knew that one of her precious people's life was on the line.
Before they even walked into the other room two voices stopped them. "What's going on Tsunade, who was at the door?" Jiraiya asked coming out of the living room along with Kakashi.
Kakashi caught on more quickly because he smelled blood and he saw the scared look on Naruto's face. "Naruto what happened?"
"Please let me set her down first before I explain myself." Naruto replied following Tsunade into her bedroom. The Hokage quickly ripped off the comforter and then grabbed more white sheets to place on the bed. Once she was done she motioned for the young blonde to place Sakura on the bed.
"I think that the men should leave now." Tsunade said to the males in the room. Naruto pushed the two older men out the door and shut it behind him.
Gently Tsunade removed the jacket and gasped when she laid eyes on her student. Tears fell down her cheeks but she wiped them away and started to heal her.
About halfway through Sakura woke up. "I'm glad that you're finally up. You worried me so much!" Tsunade exclaimed still healing the young girl. Right now she was trying to repair all the bite marks on her breasts.
Sakura didn't respond to her which made the woman worry. "Naruto didn't tell me what happened to you so can you tell me?"
The young girl looked at her sensei then turned away from her too ashamed to look at her. "Sasuke came back."
"WHAT!!! How did that happen!!"
"I have no idea, but I was hanging out with Naruto like I normally do. Well I went home and to summarize it for you Sasuke injected a poison in me that drains all my chakra then he knocked me out. When I woke up he hit me a couple of times and then he killed my mother right in front of me. Then he went back to beating me before he raped me." Sakura finished trying really hard not to cry her heart out.
Tsunade sort of realized that something like that happened to her because of the state she was in, but still it was a hard to grasp. She knew how much Sakura loved her mother so that was a blow to both of them because Tsunade was good friends with Sora. She watched her grow up right in front of her eyes and she even had the honor of giving birth to the girl she was currently healing. Oh how fate liked to hurt the innocent ones.
The blonde haired woman quickly wrapped Sakura up in her arms giving her a tight hug.
"Sakura it's okay to cry at times like these. You lost two of the most important things that a girl has so it's okay to cry."
At first Sakura just sat there wrapped up in her sensei's arms but then she thought about what happened today and felt the familar sting of her tears. More and more came till her vision became blurry and they started to overflow. A sob came out of her throat, then another, and then another. Soon she was full blown sobbing into Tsunade's arms.
Tsunade held the girl close to her and gently stroked her hair. Her own tears falling from her eyes. "It's going to be okay Sakura. You're going to pull through this tragedy and I'm going to help you. Don't worry because soon everything will be alright."
Wounds especially emotional ones take a long time to heal, but even if it takes the rest of her life Tsunade promised that she would heal Sakura's wounds.
----------------
When Sakura was finished with her story it was deadly silent. Ino just stared at her friend in shock and horror. She came up with many different ways that Sasuke would do to her to make her like this but this she would have never imagined.
After a while Ino decided to speak again. "So what happened after that?"
Sakura sighed a little looking down to the ground instead of at her friend. "It took me a week or two for my wounds to heal. I realized that Sasuke didn't use protection so we checked to see if I was pregnant or had an STD. Luckily both turned out negative. I decided to move out of my home because it was too hard to bear with the fact that my mom died here and I was raped. To pay respect to my mom I come here everyday and play her a song on the piano. That's one of the reasons why I leave the apartment so early in the morning."
There was one thing that bugged Ino though and she had to ask it. "How didn't anyone find out about it? I mean my parents are good friends with your mom so were Shikamaru and Chouji's parents."
"I'm sorry Ino, but your parents did know about her death. Everyone who was close to my mom knew about her death. The reason you didn't find out was because you and everyone else from the Konoha 11 were out on missions. I begged Tsunade not to have anyone speak about it because I didn't want any of you guys finding out."
"My parents knew but I didn't? Sakura I was good friends with your mom too! She was like a second mom to me! I understand about not telling anyone else but you could have told me! I would have understood!" Ino shouted extremely hurt that Sakura never told her something this important.
Something snapped inside of Sakura when Ino said those words. Before the blonde could think the pinkette was in her face yelling. "How much can you truly understand Ino? Both of your parents are alive! I have no one! I'm all alone in this fucking world with no one to love me, but you have people that do love you and are with you! Ino if I would have told you back then you would have pitied me because you don't understand what it's like to be truly alone!"
SLAP!
Sakura's eyes widened in shock as she lightly touched the red mark on her cheek. She looked to her extremely pissed off friend, never in her life had she seen her this angry.
Ino glared at the pink haired girl, her sky blue eyes glowing in fury. "YOU BAKA! You will never be truly alone in this world so long as you have friends! Even if I lost every single one of my family members I wouldn't feel alone as long as you're still my best friend! You thought that by pushing me away you were protecting me, but in the end you were hurting yourself! I know that I wouldn't fully understand but I wouldn't have pitied you either! I WOULD HAVE BEEN THERE FOR YOU WHETHER IT'S A PERSON TO LAUGH WITH OR A SHOULDER TO CRY ON!!!"
The young Haruno looked at the furious Yamanaka in wonder. She was too busy drowning in her own sorrow that she just assumed that people would pity her if they found out. Looking into Ino's eyes she knew that it was the exact opposite.
Sakura threw herself into Ino's arms catching the blonde off guard. "I'm so sorry Ino-chan! I never meant to cause any problems for you!" She starting crying again.
Ino hugged the girl tightly to her body and started stroking the back of her head. "There's nothing to be sorry for Saku-chan. I'm just glad that you realized that you can come to me no matter what the problem is."
After a while Sakura fell asleep in Ino's arms and Ino transported them back to their apartment.
The blonde picked Sakura up bridal style and walked into the pink haired girl's room. She knew that she wasn't allowed in there but she guessed that Sakura didn't care anymore.
She pulled back the covers and gently laid her down on the bed. Ino wiped the stray tears from Sakura's face and tucked her in. With her right hand she gently caressed her right cheek and lightly kissed her on the forehead. She turned to leave but suddenly a hand shot out and grabbed her wrist. Looking back she saw that Sakura was still asleep but she had a death grip on her hand.
She was about ready to pull herself out of Sakura's grip when the pink haired girl started speaking to her. "Please...don't...leave me..." She whispered making Ino's heart ache.
'Well I guess one night wouldn't hurt.' She thought to herself pulling the covers back and climbing in the bed with Sakura.
Instantly Sakura wrapped her arms around Ino's waist and brought the blonde closer to her body. Ino blushed at the sudden contact. She wondered how Sakura could sleep with her heart beating so fast, it sounded so loud to her. 'On second thought I think this night might be the death of me.' Ino thought in her head as Sakura pressed her head into her chest.
Now Ino was starting to freak out. She was just about to pull Sakura off of her when the girl started talking again. Actually it was more of a word, but it still had an effect on the blonde. "Ino-chan." Sakura whispered into the blonde's chest, hugging her tighter.
When Ino heard Sakura whisper her name almost instantly she calmed down. Once she calmed down she realized how tired she truly was. She looked down to her best friend and ran her hand through her soft pink hair. 'Don't worry Sakura you will never be alone again.' She vowed to herself before she fell into a comfortable sleep.
