Sakura continued to scream as she tried to close her eyes but they just seemed to stay open, the image continued to burn in her mind. When she opened her eyes again, the image had changed. It looked as if Sasuke and Naruto were rushing through the forest but as they were about to arrive at a small shack a man that she faintly remembered slashed at them with his sword and a powerful wave of water and both went missing under the water. Sakura screamed her loudest and then felt totally defeated. She closed her eyes as her tears began to fall down her face.

When Sakura opened her eyes again she was in the same room, lying in the same bed she had been since Itachi and his partner had brought her here. She hadn't escaped the cold thoughts of Sasuke and Naruto being terrifyingly torn away, but it had at least settled that they probably would not come for her anymore.

Itachi entered the room. His hair was down now, like he had just woken up. She looked at him a deep hatred brewing inside of her. This hatred was even worse then when she had woken up next to him.

"So you're finally awake? I would have expected you to recover sooner with the strength you possess, but it took you a week." Said Itachi.

"What do you mean it took me a week?" answered Sakura.

"I mean you were out cold for a week after you experienced the Mongekyou Sharingan. I didn't want to have to use it but you could have killed someone with that fist you have there."

"You mean… so you did cast a jutsu upon me!"

At this Sakura jumped from the bed and inches from Itachi's feet she fell to the floor. She was wearing the same red nightgown she had worn the day she arrived here. Why did her clothes keep changing? Why was Itachi that much of a pervert? All that aside, she felt nothing anymore for his partner and he had probably killed Sasuke and Naruto.

"That's true your beloved Sasuke is nowhere to be found and The Kyuubi has been extracted from that boy who is friends of yours. This left him dead. Now what will you do Sakura?"

This made Sakura tear up. She was now all alone in the world and he was giving her a choice. She was to stay or to leave, but her choice was far different then she ever expected when she chose. She stood up and bowed her head to Itachi, she had been defeated. At this sign he wrapped his arm around her shoulder and brought her out of the room, for the first time she could remember There was a group of men there, and now she was embarrassed because all she was wearing was a nightgown, but she now held her head high and hid the embarrassment.

"This is the one you spoke of Itachi?" asked a man whose silhouette looked normal, compared to the others but his eyes were large and cold.

"Yes. She almost defeated me." Answered Itachi.

"Very well then. She shall be a fine addition to The Akatsuki." Said the man.

Sakura bowed in honor, she know knew what life had planned for her and she was ready. All the men stared at her, which angered her because they could see much more of her body then she wanted them to, since the nightgown only went mid-thigh. She accepted the torment as an initiation to this group, and with that she and Itachi were now bonded further than any bond she and Sasuke had shared. She was now the first female and only female in the Akatsuki. This was her fate, now and forever.
