I ran through the mansion looking for Deidara. Nothing in my entire life felt as though it needed me to be so urgent. No one knew where he was as they all looked at me bitterly. When I went back into my room Deidara was there holding a young girl in his arms.

"He's still alive." He informed me making me rush forward and look down at the boy. I stared down at the boy my age. He has long dark brown hair and girl features but is strong like a boy. Muscles covered his stomach and arms.

"What happened to him?" I asked looking down at all the blood. Deidara looked at me then with such a dark and cruel look that I took a step backwards and fell onto my bed.

"This boy was going to be killed here without your knowing it. He's the one who tried to stop your parents when he was three years old." Deidara whispered and hugged the child tightly. His wounds were bandaged and it looked as though he would live.

"You need to go." I ordered and opened my window. "Take him to a safe place and begin to nurse him. Make sure to get past the town I lived in. I'll join you there tomorrow or a little later." I muttered getting the first aid kit before throwing it out the window.

Deidara looked at me bitterly and shook his head. "You should go… I'll figure out some way to join you." He pleaded. I looked at him with a dark glare and felt my eyes fill with tears.

"You and I both know that if you stayed here then they would kill you." I growled angrily and began to pull him toward the window. "Please… I don't want to lose you Deidara." I whispered bitterly.

"Sakura… if you really care for me then get out of here." He begged and held me tightly. "If you're going to be stubborn then kiss me..." He continued.

I kissed him softly at first and then our tongues met. We kissed for so long… but then we began to hear footsteps. Deidara jumped out the window carrying the boy along with him. I waved goodbye then closed the window and took deep breaths.

Konan rushed into my room and walked up to me with a harsh look on her face. It was almost as though I was looking at a completely different person. She took off my clothes and put on a white gown on me. She forced white strappy shoes on my feet and put lip gloss on my lips.

"What are you doing?!" I whispered feeling the anger resonating from within her. She looked at me then with such hatred that I almost broke down on the spot.

"Pein is taking you as his own tonight. He says it's time. Everyone is to watch your wedding next week and tonight you will join him for dinner then sleep in his chambers." She informed me. I paled realizing what he was planning.

"Is there any way of escape?" I asked her knowing she's still my friend. Instantly Konan broke down crying as she shook her head. I let a single tear slip then allowed Sasori to drag me out of the room leaving Konan there filling my room with tears.

"It's time for him to take you." Sasori said indifferently but I could sense his anger as well. I wanted to tell him that it doesn't have to be like this.

"You don't know of any way I can leave do you?" I asked knowing that things are already heading down hill. If he tells Pein it won't get much worse.

"I'd help you if I could… but there's no way." He whispered darkly. I looked up at his pained features and sighed.

"This is the reason for my coming here. It was all so that I could become his one day." I answered everyone's unspoken thoughts from all around me. The Akatsuki watched me head into the black room. Pein was lying on his bed with his eyes half opened as he looked at me seductively.

"My angel has arrived." He laughed and the doors slammed behind me. I glanced back hearing the doors lock from the outside. There are many secret passages in this normal looking room that led all over the mansion. That's how Pein gets around without anyone ever seeing him.

"Please let me go." I said softly looking at him with my soft green eyes. He stared straight into them and stood up walking right up to me.

"No." He answered and kissed my neck. "I… (kiss) brought (kiss) you here (kiss) so (kiss) you can (kiss) be mine." Pein whispered into my neck.

"Then it will be forced." I said blankly.

"Then it will be forced." He answered and threw me on his bed.
