Chapter 2 – Stolen Innocence

Naruto and Sasuke couldn't believe what they were hearing. Akatsuki had either killed or kidnapped Sakura. The Anbu mask that Tsunade held, told them that she had been promoted. Sasuke was utterly surprised. By the look on Naruto's face, he was too. Sakura had surpassed them in rank. Had Sakura surpassed them in power as well? Sweet, innocent, weak Sakura had become Anbu. The Anbu are the most elite in Konoha. Sakura had become a part of it. Sasuke shook his head in disbelief. Sakura was better suited as a housewife. There had to be some mistake. That's exactly what Naruto voiced out.

"Oba-chan!"

He received a hard hit in the head.

"I see Jiriya didn't teach you any manners out there. Of course, I still don't see why you wanted to train under such a perverted man."

No one could seem to argue with her. Not because she was Hokage, but because they just couldn't argue with her. No one could deny that Jiriya was a pervert, not even Jiriya himself. He was the great Frog Sannin and he was a pervert. Jiriya quickly whipped out a book and handed it to Kakashi. Kakashi whipped off his Anbu mask, thinking he had read the title wrong. However, it turned out to be what he thought it was. A huge smile appeared on his face under his mask.

"Jiriya is a great man!"

"Kakashi you're too honest."

Jiriya patted him on the back and laughed loudly. Kakashi soon joined in. Tsunade just tsked thinking Kakashi was bought too easily. Everyone just sweat dropped at the two perverts. Getting back to the topic at hand, Naruto continued.

"There must be some mistake. Sakura can't be Anbu. She's too weak. Not that she couldn't have or probably gotten stronger but I mean like Chunnin power, not Anbu. What rank is she in Anbu?"

Tsunade smirked and an evil glint appeared in her eyes.

"Wouldn't you like to know that?"

Sakura sat on the bed of probably Itachi's room. Anger was the only word that could really describe her attitude at the moment. One, her clothes had been changed. She had no doubt that it was Itachi. Sakura could still feel the ghost of his warm touch. It sent shivers down her spine. Now she was even angrier. Her weapons were missing, as well as her waist bag. It held a small book filled with discoveries, notes and antidote recipes. Her much needed gloves were also missing. Sakura touched the top of her head, then at her right arm. A growl escaped her mouth. Itachi took her Anbu mask and headband. Now she was really pissed. She was barefooted, weaponless, and if she wasn't so mad, Sakura would probably feel desperate.

The scraping of the door opening had Sakura quickly hiding in the shadows. Once inside, the figure went over to the bed, hands on hip. Before he could react Sakura jumped him from behind. She held her two fingers at a vital point, and glared down at the man she was on top of. A soft chuckle erupted beneath her. Itachi turned his head to look at her, a smirk placed on his mouth.

"Do you like being on top? All you had to do was ask."

Sakura became flustered by his comment. His sexual joke showed that he truly was like any other man. As the blush began to fade, Sakura rolled her eyes and pressed harder. A groan of pain escaped Itachi's lips. With quick movement, Sakura was once again beneath him. A smirk still played on his lips which infuriated Sakura. This wasn't a game. It was fraternizing with the enemy. Sakura felt Itachi move his hand under her shirt, fluttering across her stomach. The heat of his hand was surprising. Sakura always thought it would be a cool touch, but it was actually quite warm. Then his hand was at the base of her bra. She tried squirming away, but Itachi placed more body weight on her. The weight pinned her in place. He yanked the shirt up and kissed the spot on her skin where his fingers had been exploring.

"You know, you have beautiful skin. It's a shame that you have scars. I was especially surprised with your back."

Sakura panicked. How much had he seen? How much had he touched? Sakura began to struggle wildly against him. Unfortunately for him, Itachi was all the way up against her. Her body movements were arousing him.

"If you don't want me ripping off your clothes and taking something precious to you, I advise you to stop."

Sakura instantly went limp. Itachi sighed. He was safe this time. If he made love to her, he wouldn't be able to control himself. The look of worry in her eyes intrigued him. She really was a perfect little pet.

"So what are those…?"

Naruto and Sasuke sat in their chairs awaiting word from the Hokage. They had been stunned to find out Sakura's part, not only as an Anbu, but just as a citizen. Sakura had trained under the Fifth Hokage, Tsunade. Under her tutelage, Sakura became more tuned with her charka. She quickly rose through the ranks and became the first Anbu Captain of Konoha. If anything was to happen to Tsunade, Sakura would become the next Hokage. However, they were told that Sakura would never take the name of Hokage, for various reasons. A rumor of her power was crossing across the lands, however, a rumor of power beyond that of Uchiha Itachi and the three legendary Sannin. Sakura was also the best medic nin alive. If she wasn't accomplishing missions as Anbu, Sakura dedicated her time to the hospital. There wasn't a person who didn't know or hadn't been treated by Sakura. Her skills were extraordinary. Tsunade proclaimed there was nothing left for her to teach Sakura. She had often sent Sakura to Sand for training and help. As such she acted as the go between. Since Tsunade and Gaara both trusted her highly, there had been no problems. Her disappearance was causing an uproar.

Sasuke tightened his hands into fists. Sakura had surpassed him, and he wouldn't be able to get his revenge if she was in the way. When was it that she stopped watching the rest of her team and went ahead of them at a run? Now it was them looking at her back. It just didn't seem possible. Sakura needn't go that far into her training. After all, didn't Naruto, Kakashi, and he have a silent promise to protect her? Now Sakura had all this power, and Akatsuki had their hands on her. It was beginning to feel a lot darker. With Sakura with Akatsuki, possibly near Itachi, he could only be worried what could happen.

Just then the doors to the Hokage's office opened up. Naruto and Sasuke stood and entered the office to see many Anbu gathered in the room. Tsunade sat at her desk with her hands folded and propping up her head.

"What's going on?" Naruto voiced out a little too loudly.

"So troublesome…" An Anbu close to them grumbled.

Naruto turned to him and was preparing to hit him.

"I know that voice! Shikamaru! I'm going to kill you."

"Dobe, just shut up already."

"Agreed, we are all gathered here to discuss the problem of Haruno Sakura. Earlier this morning, First Anbu Captain Haruno did not return to the village as scheduled. She had send a messenger ahead of herself stating that she wasn't far and would have returned in about an hour. With two hours gone by, I send out hunter nins to track her down. In their investigation, they turned up on Sakura's bloody Anbu mask." Tsunade held it up for show. Many gasps went around the room.

"Now, as to who took her. It is still uncertain who took her for sure. However, we're positive that it was the organization known as Akatsuki. Some people traveling in the forest remember seeing them with their signature cloaks. Also, another group saw them carrying a young girl with them with pink hair, sound familiar? Now here is what is going to happen. I have already made a team to go out in search of Sakura. The team consists of people who knew her. They will be the best at the job of tracking her down, wherever Akatsuki may hide her. There will be no complaints and I will take no more requests, due to the fact that you may slow down their search. You are all dismissed as the mission will commence first thing in the morning. Prepare yourselves well, I have a feeling Akatsuki won't hand her over easily."

With that said and done, the Anbu all disappeared with a puff of smoke. Naruto and Sasuke stayed behind to talk with Tsunade. She looked at them with a critical eye.

"I have a suspicion you won't wait here like good little shinobi."

They looked at her like she had gone nuts. Tsunade sighed.

"Fine, then those orders goes for you as well. Meet at the gate six sharp. No one is allowed to be late, not even that sensei of yours."

Naruto and Sasuke smirked while they nodded and left. Elsewhere, a perverted sensei sneezed and felt cold chills run down his back.

After her little, slightly, sexual encounter with Itachi, Sakura began to feel weak and fell asleep. When she woke up, she wanted to scream, but her voice was stuck in the back of her throat. Itachi was in the bed as well, probably asleep, she couldn't tell with his back to her. She quietly, yet quickly, got off the bed and looked around for a weapon. She looked away from the bed and behind her to find nothing. When she turned back to the bed, Itachi was gone. Sakura panicked; however, she quickly calmed down and tried to feel for him. At this moment, Sakura realized how low on chakra she had. Even if she just had five minutes of sleep, Sakura usually had enough chakra and stamina to last her through a war. Was it possible that she had been drained? Sakura's muscles tightened as an arm wrapped around her waist from behind. She landed a right hook into Itachi's face. He instantly let go and grumbled something under his breath. Sakura and Itachi's eyes then met. He looked tired. Sakura moved into a fighting position. Itachi chuckled at her. He knew she wouldn't last five seconds.

"You were drained of most of your chakra by Kisame, you wouldn't last long. We were quite surprised to find out how much chakra you had. Kisame couldn't handle it and let most of it fly."

Sakura grumbled and anger filled her. They let her chakra go to waste. The idiots were going to pay a lot for this one.

"Usually, if I was like back in my Gennin days, I would be offended that you let a guy like that touch me." Sakura stood straight back up. "I've surprisingly seen worse though."

Itachi would have chuckled, but something told him that she wasn't kidding. Sakura had revealed a little something personal about herself. From what she just told him, she had changed in time. What had gotten her to change was probably going to take him time to figure out. He watched her climb back into the bed.

"What made you change?"

"A lot of things made me change, Uchiha-san."

Itachi didn't miss out on the venom added to his last name. He knew he hit a sore spot, most likely dealt with her teammate and his little brother.

"What did my little ototo do to you?"

He heard her mumble something as her voice began to fade. The subject was sore but he sensed that it went deep. There was also the feeling that it had to do with something more than just Sasuke. Itachi walked over to the bed and turned Sakura's body over. She was in deep sleep, if she didn't feel him moving her. Sakura must sleep deep, when low on both chakra and stamina, but Itachi guessed anybody would. He turned her onto her stomach and pulled up the shirt above her shoulders. He made a few hand seals and placed one of his hands on her shoulder and the other on his. As soon as the jutsu took place, pain shot through Itachi's body, that made him cripple over. Itachi had no idea how much pain Sakura had. The jutsu that Itachi had used allowed him to feel her pain. It was mainly used to locate a person. Itachi was using it to keep tabs on Sakura. He had a pretty strong feeling she wasn't going to remain in this room.

Itachi was able to move a bit. He looked down to realize that he had landed on top of Sakura. The very feeling of himself against her made him hard. She turned over in her sleep, so that she was lying on her back. Another wave of pain shot through is body. Itachi went down again. However, this time, his lips met hers. He could feel her skin against his. He quickly broke the contact of their lips. The feeling left an impression though. Itachi felt himself growing, and the pain of his groin began to hurt. This is when all bets came off. Itachi activated his Sharigan and the pain became easier to handle. Sakura began to come around when she started to feel someone touching her. When she opened her eyes, she was instantly met with red Sharigan eyes. They seemed to hypnotize her, freezing her in place. She watched frozen as Itachi removed his clothing quickly, but he took his sweet time taking off the rest of hers. As he lifted off the shirt, Sakura was broke from the Sharigan for a second, before she was met with them again. The darkness that filled the room made it more threatening. Itachi put his hands under her and she heard the unsnapping of her bra. Her breasts were instantly cold when the fabric of the bra was removed. He then pulled off her pants and underwear. Itachi sat back and admired her purity, beauty, innocence. He instantly knew she was a virgin.

She could barely make out his naked body on top of her. Sakura saw him give her a menacing smile that sent chills down her spine. Itachi's hand fluttered across her stomach making Sakura move against him violently. He was totally naked and so was she. Sakura tried to move out of the bed, but Itachi forcefully pulled her back in. Sakura landed hard against the futon as Itachi's body moved onto hers. He captured her wrists and moved them above her head. Sakura tried to break his grip, but it only tightened causing her to whimper in pain. Itachi made her feel useless again, and there was an underlying feeling that Itachi was different right now.

"You're such a beautiful tease."

Itachi planted kisses on her stomach and moved up her body. She soon heard the clicking of metal above her.

"Sorry to disappoint you, but I need both of my hands to make this successful."

His words made her feel even more worried at what he was going to do. Itachi moved his hands over her breasts as he nibbled her neck. Sakura tried to break the handcuffs off but with such a low supply of chakra, Sakura was left helpless. Itachi smirked at her attempts to free herself.

"You really should enjoy this Cherry Blossom."

He hungrily took to her mouth. Her taste lingering on his taste buds. Her scent filling his nostrils, making him smell her everywhere. Her struggles moved her body against his, and when her body would move against him, it made him more determined to have her tonight. Itachi had never lost this much control until he met her.

"You're going to enjoy this."

"I highly doubt that."

Sakura could see the pure lust in his eyes. She felt his fingers move south on her body. Itachi lowered his head onto her neck. He suckled on her neck as trying to get that lingering taste to stay. She felt his tongue travel to her ear, where he bit with purpose. Sakura whimpered at the pain, which was becoming music to his ears. He let his tongue move over her body. His tongue soon began to suckle her breast as she jolted in pain when Itachi plunged his fingers into her. She wasn't slick so it was making this task hard on her body. The pain he felt was entirely hers and it was great but so was his desire to have her. He activated the Mangekyou Sharigan to deal with the pain more. Itachi made Sakura shiver under him. He then put his mouth to her making her moist, so when he entered her it wouldn't be so hard. Sakura tried to wildly move away from him. The only word going through her mind right now was wrong. This was wrong. Itachi chuckled at her. He then fitted himself at her entrance. He bent down and bit into her skin which made Sakura whimper again. Then without any warning he rapidly entered her. She felt him enter her with a searing pain that made her scream in protest. Her screaming drove him on and heightened his pleasure. He began to move to fast and so deep that her screaming wore rough on her throat. A cruel smile played on his lips as Sakura fainted from the pain. That was the last thing Sakura remembered.

Sasuke bolted straight awake. Breathing heavily, Sasuke wiped the sweat from his forehead. His dream had been quite erotic and sickening. In his dream, he watched helplessly as his brother raped an unconscious Sakura. Sasuke's fist soon met his pillow trying to block out such thoughts. He would never forgive Itachi if he touched Sakura in that way. He could never forgive Sakura if she let that happen. Unconscious or not, Sakura was an Anbu, she should be able to fight him off. Sasuke moved out of the bed and began to get dressed. He would have a training session before meeting up with Naruto to begin their search for Sakura. Right now, Sasuke really wanted to rip out Itachi's heart, and bring Sakura home. The most disturbing part is that Sasuke wished it was him that whole time.
