Summery: Sasuke, Sakura, and Naruto get stuck in a house after an exhausting mission. The man in charge seems to be nice, but what is with the weird happenings and why can't they seem to get out? Why is that man trying to kill Sasuke and Naruto and why does he looking at Sakura?
Chapter 3
"Here." He said as they turned another corner. There at the end of the hall was the same picture that Sasuke and Naruto had seen earlier. "This is Emma…the girl that I loved more then life its self." Raidon said as Sakura stared at the picture in a cross between shock and horror.
"It's me…" Sakura whispered staring at the picture, to shocked to do anything else.
"Now you know why I don't want you to leave." Raidon said as he gently placed a hand on her shoulder slowly moving up her neck.
"Don't touch me!" Sakura yelled as she took a couple steps back. "I am not her! No matter how much alike we look I am not her and I never will be!"
"I know that. But you are the closest thing that I have to her and I will keep you." His eyes darkened a little as he spoke making Sakura shiver.
"Even if it is against my will?"
"I don't care. I have been lonely for so many years and you are the first chance that I have at happiness. I will not let you get away!" Raidon's voice rose as he spoke making Sakura take another step back.
"I don't even know you! I mean we just met how can you say that I will make you happy. We don't know each other at all! And besides that I am already in love." Sakura had both hands at her chest reminding herself of how Hinata used to act, and Sakura could have sworn that she was trembling.
"That didn't stop me before, do you think that it will stop me now?" Sakura could tell that he was getting mad at her now. His voice was still calm yet it had a tone to it that frightened her.
"Your insane…" Sakura whispered as she backed up farther.
"That's one of the things that my family told me right before I killed them." Raidon said taking a step closer to Sakura.
"Get away from me." Sakura wished that she didn't sound so weak as she spoke, but she couldn't help it.
"Come here." Raidon said as he held out his hand for her.
"No. GET AWAY!" Sakura screamed as she ran.
"You really think that you can get away from me my flower?" Raidon asked as she ran. Sakura didn't turn around to look at the amused gleam in his eyes as she ran. 'I am so weak, but…Oh god I don't care how this is making me look. I have to get out of here!' Sakura thought as she ran. 'Sasuke where are you? Please help me!'

Sasuke and Naruto were running when Naruto grabbed Sasuke by the arm saying, "We have to stop to catch our breaths. If we continue on at this pace we won't have any energy to help her when we reach her." Naruto huffed hunched over with his hands on his knees.
"You're a ninja, this shouldn't tire you out Naruto." Sasuke said as he looked around.
"You know what. Not all of us spent time with Orochimaru training till you are practically dead and then still training! Just give me a minute ok? Besides it looks like we are just going in circles." Naruto had a point Sasuke noticed a little while ago that they had been somehow ending up in the same rooms. They would purposely make a different turn or something but they always ended up back at the green house. It was as if the house were confusing them purposely.
"Fine. But I know that we are close." Sasuke said walking up to a door that they hadn't tried yet he attempted to open the door, but to no success.
"Sasuke I think something is trying to keep us away from Sakura." Naruto said from his new spot on the ground, leaning against a random tree on the side of the clearing.
"No shit Naruto you think?" Sasuke snapped back.
"You don't have to be a bastard about it. I was just saying what I thought. By the way why would someone want Sakura?" Naruto wondered out loud.
"You really are an idiot. You know that?"
"It's just that they are keeping us away from her and they have that picture of her."
"Naruto you have reached a new level of stupidity." Sasuke said.
"Ok then you tell me mister know it all." Naruto said crossing his arms.
"The girl in the picture was Emma." Sasuke said as he kicked the door, but it still didn't open.
"How do you know that?" Naruto asked.
"There was a name at the bottom of the picture that said Emma." Sasuke answered as he stepped back from the door. "My guess is that the same man who wrote made that memorial by with the tree was in love with her and since she died he now wants Sakura to take her place." Sasuke said looking for a new open door.
"You suck you know that?" Naruto said as he pouted like a little child.
"Whatever now get up and help me find a way out of here." Sasuke said still looking for a new exit.
"OK, ok…jeeze you're so bossy." Naruto mumbled standing up. When he tried to take a step he noticed that there was a vine around his ankle. 'That's funny when did that get there?' He thought as he bent down to take it off but realized that the more he tried to pull at it the more it tightened around his ankle. 'What the hell…' "Hey Sasuke do you have a kunai?"
"Why do you ask?" Sasuke asked trying another door.
"There is this little vine thingy stuck on my leg, and I can't get it off."
"You're such a looser." Sasuke said as he went over and broke the vine with his bear strength. When it broke a scream emanated throughout the room.
"What was that?" Naruto asked looking around to see all the trees started to shake.
"I have no idea." Sasuke answered standing up and looking around. Just as quickly as it started everything stopped. "What is going on?"
"AAAIIIEEE!" Naruto screamed jumping out of the way just in time as a giant vine came out of the foliage attacking them. "What the crap!" Naruto yelled as another one came at them.
"Shit…" Sasuke said as he dodged. Unfortunately for both of them another vine came from behind them knocking both to the ground. Sasuke landed on his feet and with in a split second jumped into the air while Naruto landed on his butt with a thud. "Naruto take cover!" Sasuke yelled while performing a couple hand signs. "Phoenix Flower Jutsu!" Sasuke yelled barely giving Naruto enough time to hide.
While Sasuke landed Naruto yelled, "What the hell we you trying to do? Barb-a-q me!" pushing off some burnt plants Naruto stood up.
"Your alive and it worked didn't it?" Sasuke said as he walked to one of the now burnt open doors. "Come on, we have already wasted enough time here. By the way you scream like a girl."
"SHUT UP!" Naruto yelled. When Sasuke walked threw the door and into the hallway he heard someone screaming.
"Sakura!" Sasuke said as he took off in a run leaving Naruto trying to catch up.
&&&&&
"No get away from me!" Sakura yelled as she ran only to come to a dead end. "Crap…" Sakura whispered as she turned around to face Raidon. "Take one step closer and I will kick your ass!" Sakura threatened earning her a laugh.
"You really are cute you know that?" he said as he took another step closer to her.
"I mean it! And besides if I don't then I am sure that Sasuke will! In fact he won't only kick your ass, but burn it and destroy it so badly that you will wish that you were never born!" Sakura spat at him only to have him start laughing. "What's so funny?"
"You really think that a mortal like him will defeat me?"
"And why wouldn't he? Sasuke Uchiha is the best shinobi on all of Kohana!" Sakura said pride in every word she said.
"You area foolish girl…and what makes you believe that he will come for you?"
"Because I love him and he loves me! And nothing that you do or say will change that fact!" Sakura yelled. In the blink of an eye he was right in front of her with both of his arms on the wall so that she couldn't escape. "Wha-" Was that Sakura could get out.
"You really think that will stop me? I told you before that nothing stops me from getting what I want, and I want you." His voice was low and seductive ad mouth inched closer to hers.
"Well to bad! I don't want to be with you!" Sakura yelled as she summoned all of her chakra to her arms and hit him. "What?" Sakura said looking up at him. His face expression hadn't changed at all as he looked at her with his lust filled eyes. "You should be dead. There was enough power to kill a man in that." Sakura whispered.
"I told you, I am a vampire and I won't be killed that easily." He whispered as he claimed her mouth. Sakura's eyes went wide and fought back. She pushed against his chest as her eyes squeezed shut trying to block out what was happening. This only earned her him trying to pry her mouth open with his tongue. Sakura refused as hard as she could but he some how pried it open, muffling her cries of no. When his tongue was fully in her mouth she bit down on it as hard as she could. Surprised Raidon pulled away form her another smirk on his face. "Feisty aren't we?" He asked Sakura scowling in return.
Wiping off her mouth with the back of her sleeve she then spit in his face saying, "You're disgusting! How low will you go? Don't you have any honor?"
"That disappeared the day that I killed that maid." He said sucking the blood that had started to drip from his tongue. "Now…" he whispered in her ear, pressing his body onto hers, "We shouldn't continue this out in the open. After all some one might try to interrupt us." Sakura used all of her strength to try and push him off, but still nothing. "Struggle all that you want, but you forget what I am."
"I know what you are and it is filth! Lowest of the low. A disgrace to everything that ever lived! Now let me go you bastard!" Sakura said still trying to fight him.
"A lady shouldn't be using those words." His voice was husky as he licked her ear making her shudder.
"I don't give a damn, just let me go!" Sakura yelled.
"Now, now. You should relax…just give into your desires…" He said moving his head so that he was looking her in the eye he then said, "Look into my eyes…what do you see?"
"I'm not going to fall for that! I know what you are trying to do!" Sakura said quickly closing her eyes and turning her head away.
Gently moving her chin to face him with one hand he gently commanded her, "Open your eyes and look at me."
"NO!" Sakura said though it came out a little weaker then she thought that it would.
"Open your eyes…" He said again no more then a whisper. Sakura reluctantly opened hers and looked into his. "What do you see?" he whispered.
"I see…" Sakura answered her voice not more then a whisper as her eyelids started to close. Closing them completely she fainted into Raidon's arms whispering, "Sasuke please come…"
"Good girl…" He said picking Sakura up bridal style he started to walk down the hall. "You will be so much fun, my dear Emma."
&&&&&
"Sakura!" Sasuke yelled as he ran. "Sakura!"
"Sasuke I don't think she is around here." Naruto said as they ran.
"Shut up. I know that she is around here. Sakura!" Sasuke snapped.
"The bastard is going to attract something that's trying to kill us I know it!" Naruto said to himself as he followed Sasuke around a corner. Quickly stopping before he could bump into Sasuke he said, "What the hell are you doing?"
"You bastard!" Sasuke said his hands balling up into fists. Looking past Sasuke Naruto saw a man with long silver hair standing on some steps as if he had been walking up them until Sasuke interrupted him; his red eyes boring into their souls. He held a young girl in his arms bridal style and upon a closer look Naruto realized that it was Sakura. "Let Sakura go!" Sasuke said, his voice even scarring Naruto who had thought that he had seen all sides of Sasuke.
"No…" Raidon said his grip on Sakura tightening. "She is mine! She is my Emma not Sakura, EMMA! And you can't take her away from me!"
"Just watch me." Sasuke said as he got into a fighting stance. Before anyone could move they heard a moan.
"My head…" Sakura whispered as her hand went to her head. After a moment she realized what was going on. Her eyes went wide as she tired to get out of Raidon's arms and to Sasuke's. "Sasuke" she screamed.
"I said let her go." Sasuke threatened. Raidon had set Sakura's feet on the ground finding it sort of hard to carry her while she struggled. Pulling her to his chest he made it so that she couldn't use her arms.
"Emma is mine and you won't take her away." He said.
"Please let me go…I am not your Emma. You told me yourself that I wasn't and I can never be. One day you will find someone else who will love you for who you are, but I can't…" Sakura whispered tears about to fall from her eyes. "I love him not you."
"Do you think that I care? He is just like the last one that stood in my way. I got rid of him and I will get rid of whoever this is!" Raidon yelled as everything around him started to float like an invisible energy was being drawn to him.
"Sasuke, Naruto run! You can't win like this! Get out and get help, he isn't human. I couldn't even bruise him with all of my charka, just run I don't want you two to get hurt!" Sakura yelled.
"Sakura are you insane? Do you know what he will do to you?" Sasuke yelled back.
"I think that I know better then anyone else, but please just run. Especially you Sasuke! Run! Don't worry about me, he won't kill me I know that for a fact. Just run!" Sakura yelled at him.
"She is right." Raidon said. "You can not hope to defeat me."
"What are you two standing around for? RUN!" Sakura screamed as a giant ball of energy came at them. Sasuke and Naruto had only an instant to get out of the way before it hit. The whole room shook as some of the ceiling fell on them. "Sasuke!" Sakura screamed but all that there was was a pile of debris. "No…" Sakura whispered her eyes wide in disbelief. "No…" she said again this time a little louder. "NO! Sasuke!" Sakura screamed once again fighting to go to where the wreckage was.
"Come we have things to do…" Raidon whispered into her ear. "I will have someone fix the ceiling later." He said as he started to pull her up the stairs.
"NO! SASUKE! NARUTO! PLEASE…SASUKE!" Sakura screamed. 'This can't be happening…This can't be HAPPENING!' Sakura's mind screamed. "Not Sasuke, oh please let them be ok. Oh god please help us!' Sakura thought as she struggled against Raidon as they reached the top of the stairs. Looking one last time at the pile she yelled, "SASUKE!" Before she was pulled out of its sight.
&&&&&
"SASUKE! SASUKE!" He heard his name being called over and over, but yet he couldn't move; like there was a giant weight on him. "SASUKE!" 'Who's calling me?' Sasuke thought as his eyes started to open. "SASUKE!" 'Sakura…' At the thought of her name his eyes shot wide open finding himself surrounded by dark. "SASUKE!" he knew at that moment that he had to get out of there and save Sakura. She was still with whomever that man was. Summoning all of his chakra and strength Sasuke lifted the ceiling off of himself, finding Naruto next to him just coming out of his daze. "SASUKE!"
Sasuke's head turned to look up the stairs his eyes turning blood red with the sharingan. Looking back down he saw Naruto rubbing his head complaining about headaches. When Naruto finally remembered what was going on he looked up at Sasuke.
"You going after her?" he asked.
"Yes." Sasuke answered starting to walk towards the stairs.
"I can help!" Naruto said starting to fallow.
"No…I have to do this on my own. Naruto look for an exit. Once I get her we are going to need one."
"I want to help save Sakura too! I am not weak. If I am going to be the future Hokage then I should be able to handle this!"
Sasuke turned his head looking at Naruto he said, "Please Naruto, if you want to help then find an exit. Give me two hours. If I am not back with Sakura by then run as fast as you can to Kohana for help." Naruto nodded at this realizing how dire the circumstances were. If an Uchiha was asking for help he knew that nothing was going to end up good.
"Fine, but I hold you responsible if she gets hurt." Naruto said taking off down the hall as Sasuke started up the stairs.
