NEVER IN MY LIFE WILL I OWN NARUTO...SADLY.

Sakura was now tied up and her mouth was duct-taped shut. Now, how did Sakura get in this position? Well, it all started a few minutes...err...umm...seconds ago.

Flashback

"Hey, Pein," Sakura shouted from across the field. Pein didn't turn around and didn't answer, but Sakura kept going on.

"I won't be very easy to beat. I was trained under Tsunade! I'll even let you have the first attack. Go on, go." Sakura said in a cocky tone with her arms crossed.

A second later, she was ambushed my Kisame, Tobi, Hidan, Kakuzu, and Zetsu on the top of that huge pile. When they stepped away, the was on the ground with her hands behind her back, arms and legs tied to her body, and her mouth duct-taped shut.

End of Flashback

"You should really watch out for your surroundings when you least expect it. Keep that in mind and you just might survive here." Pein said as he walked away.

"And one more thing...I've decided to change the date of the Kyuubi's capture. I've recieved word that the Kyuubi Container and Itachi's brother will be coming."

Sakura's eyes widened at the thought. "I'm going to have to see that bitch for only one more time and then I can live in peace," thought Sakura. Konan untied Sakura and slowly removed the duct tape to lessen the pain. When Konan was done, Sakura asked, "Hey, Konan, wanna go with me to the mall later?"

"Sure! Why not go now?" Konan whined, stomping her right foot on the ground a few times like a little kid.

"Well, I don't see why not-"

"Yay! Let's go Sakura!"

"Wait! Let's get our money first!"

"Oh, right. I forgot." Konan did hand signs with her hand seperated. Then, two wallets popped up. "Here ya go!" And with that, they rushed to the best mall they could find...the Mall of Fire.

"Teme, I can't take this anymore! I wanna kill her! Stop making theses stupid guesses! Just show us where she is you goddamn hypocrate!" Naruto screamed.

"Dobe, I suggest you shut the hell up before we turn you into the Akatsuki." Sasuke retorted.

"Sasuke, you guys should stop fighting over that ugly bitch and start fighting over me," Karin suggested happily. They both turned to her.

"SHUT THE HELL UP KARIN! I'M NOT IN THE FUCKING MOOD RIGHT NOW!" Naruto and Sasuke shouted in inison while they are all still jumping from tree to tree.

"Wait, I'm getting something...they're close! It looks like they're headed for the Mall of Fire!" Karin said. "About 20 miles North, 5 miles Ea-" but before Karin could finish, everyone was already ahead of her

"Wait for me!"

"Oh my god! It's huge!" Sakura 'aww'ed looking left to right, taking notice of the beautiful building before them

"Yea! I really wanted to go here, but Akatsuki aren't allowed in here unless approved by a non-Akatsuki member. You haven't been announced Akatsuki member, so we can go in." Konan explained.

"Alright! Let's go!" Sakura said as she walked to the gate as Konan's arms were locked and smiling. They were now the best of friends. Right then a guard stopped them.

"It's alright, she's with me," Sakura explained and the guard let them proceed.

"Thanks Sakura! Oh God! This'll be the best day of my life!"

Right when they stepped in, Sakura could feel Sasuke and Naruto's chakra. They were close...a little too close...
