Chapter 6
Sakura sat in front of the mirror in her new room. Behind her was a woman that had long black hair and dark blue eyes. She wore a red silk kimono as she played with Sakuras' hair.
Sakura stared at herself in the mirror, not really caring what Tomoko did with her pink locks. The shine that gave her eyes the life that everybody loved was gone, and would probably never come back.
Tomoko looked at the girl and frowned. Even though she worked under Orochimaru, she still did not like the man.
"You don't want to do this, do you?" Tomoko asked. Sakura closed her eyes and shook her head. Tomoko finished Sakuras' hair. It was beautiful. A gorgeously wrapped bun laid tightly on the upper back of her head and out of the bun came little loose chunks of pink locks which were curled. In front, the pieces that framed her delicate face were also curled. The last piece was the cherry blossom that rested in the center of her bun.
Tomoko sat down on Sakuras' bed and patted the spot next to her. Sakura got up from the chair and sat down next to Tomoko.
"If you don't want to marry him, then why are you here?" she asked.
"Because, it's not my choice."
"We always have a choice sweety. Isn't there someone who you truely want to be with?"
Sakura looked down to the concrete floor, trying her best to hold back the tears threatening to fall from her emerald eyes.
"H-he...was murdered..." Sakura replied silently. Tomokos' eyes widened and sadness filled her.
"Oh. I'm so sorry. Here let's just finish getting you ready." Tomoko began to finish Sakura's make up.
"There, you're all set. All you have to do is put on your dress and you'll be ready to go."
Sakura forced a small smile and thanked Tomoko for her beautiful work as she exited. Sakura shut the door and looked behind her at the stunning kimono/dress that hung in the corner. She looked at the clock on the dresser, only 6:00am. Sakura looked back at the dress once again and studied it. It was a dress but had that elegance and design of a traditional kimono. Down in the front it had a giant cherry blossom and in the back it had many cherry blossoms flowing downward diagonaly and its' color was a deep dark blue.
Sadly, Sakura slid on her dress and made her way over to her bed. On her way she spotted her tiara and placed that on her head. Sakura then got back up and stared into the mirror. She only imagined dressing for her wedding like this with Sasuke. Tears swelled up in her eyes and blurred her vision but she forcefully blinked them back.
Hours had passed with Sakura just thinking, pacing, and laying down. She looked over at her clock again, it was 2:30pm. Only 1 and 1/2 hours till the wedding started.
Why does the sun have to set so early here? she thought sadly. But what was the point of moping around about it. Sasuke was gone. She could marry anyone now and it still wouldn't equal up to the love she had for Sasuke.
Her vision began to blur again. She had to stop thinking about him. Suddenly there was a knock at the door. Sakura looked at the clock and saw that it was 3:35pm.
Guess tiime flies when you're miserable.
She heard the knock at the door again and jumped out of her thoughts.
"Come in."
The door opened to reveal a shy Tomoko standing behind it. She bowed polietly, asking for permission to enter and Sakura nodded happily.
"Sakura-san! You look wonderful!" Tomoko exclaimed in excitment. Sakura gave a small smile and motioned for the shy girl to take a seat, but she refused.
"I'm sorry Sakura-san but we have no time. The wedding starts in 10 minutes. We must leave."
"Okay." Sakura then got up and followed Tomoko out of her room.
The walk down the hall seemed to move in slow motion.
This is it. This isn't just a nightmare.
They finally reached the doors. You could hear music and when the signal was heard Tomoko opened the doors.
Inside was a red carpet leading to the platform where Orochimarus' throne used to be. Standing on the sides of the red carpet were woman servants and Orochimarus' guards. In the back middle of the platform was Kabuto holding a bible. Standing near him was Orochimaru still wearing his normal attire. His smile made Sakura gulp with nervousness.
Now the small band began to play the normal wedding music and Tomoko signaled for Sakura to begin her walk down the aisle.
This is it. Sakura took a deep breath and took her first step.
Sasuke breathed heavily. He finally made it to the top of the steep cliff. He stood up and looked around and fortunatly for him Orochimaru had left the door open. The only problem was, the 2 guards that were standing there were now coming at him.
He looked at the two kunais in his hand and smirked. He disappeared, reappearing behind the suprised men and stabbed them. They fell to the ground dead. Sasuke grabbed the kunais and ran through the doors. Opporation Save Sakura was now in session.
Skillfully he manuvered through the hallways. After a minute he found the doorway that lead to the ceremony and heard that music in the background. Slowly he peeked through the doors, seeing Orochimaru he growled silently. Then his eyes widened when he saw the girl who now stood next to the snake lord. Sasuke was amazed at how beautiful she was and got jealous when the snake man tried to hold the pink haired princesses hand.
Quickly he looked around for a different way to get in. Sasukr then got an idea when he saw the window straight across from him and the one straight above him.
This could possibly be our escape. He thought with his trademark smirk.
Sakura arrived at the platform, taking her place next to Orochimaru. He tried to hold her hand but she pulled it away. The music still played loudly but calmly throughout the entire lair.
CRASH!!!!
The window above the platform shattered and Sakura was lifted off her feet by none other than...
