Hey!!

Most of your questions will be answered soon (lizzpercrush) but i can vaguely answer a couple now.

1) I haven't decided on her strength yet, but some puches might go around. 2) There are other things out there worse than them.

Disclaimer: Still no such luck.

ENJOY!

Sakura was seated unwillingly in a large, comfy first class chair. People were still boarding the flight, and she could not believe the amount of glares she was receiving from the people riding coach. I mean God! She had just been kidnapped and forcibly strapped into comfort, and now she was getting glares from wives and husbands.

'Positives Sakura, think of the positives. Your going to get a free meal out of this.'

'Yea, but it'll be gross.'

'There's an in-flight movie.'

'Called Deep Impact. …Stupid movie.'

'Maybe they'll give me wine.'

'I doubt the ol' ball and chain will let you get thrashed.'

Sakura spared a glance over to Kidnapper #1, who was sitting in the seat right next to her.

'At least I got the window seat.'

'So you can imagine yourself plummeting to your death.'

'Wow I seriously underestimated how much this is going to suck.'

She sighed and rubbed her temples.

By now people had taken there seats and the flight attendants were giving their little speech that everyone has heard a million times.

Sakura looked over at Kidnapper #2, who was sitting on the other side of Kidnapper #1, and rolled her eyes. He was ogling one of the flight attendants. She was a particularly busty brunette, who was robotically indicating that we had barf bags for a reason, and should we need them, they are located in the seat in front of us. She just so happened to catch Kidnapper #2's obvious appreciation of the uniforms they were forced to wear and threw him a quick wink.

"I gonna be sick," Sakura mumbled to herself.

"Remember, we have barf bags for that," Kidnapper #1 whispered to her.

"Oh just shut-up," she replied trying to hide a grin.

The flight attendants were gone now and the plane was making its way down the maze of roads. Sakura looked out of the window, and saw some of the city. She remembered coming here last year with her father and her brother. He wasn't really her brother, just a really close family friend. They had gone and seen all the sites together. It had been such a fun week, but now it seemed as though San Francisco had been tainted for her. It no longer held that sense of fun and carelessness. Now it was sour.

Damn them for ruining this amazing city for her.

Fifteen minutes later they were airborne, and it looked like the flight attendants were about to make their rounds. Sakura waited. God she was parched, and a Sprite sounded spectacular.

"Hello. Would you like a beverage?" Oh what luck, it was that brunette. Kidnapper #2 was staring at her chest, not even attempting to look away while Kidnapper #1 asked quietly for a water. The flight attendant looked at Kidnapper #1 and blushed a little.

She got the water, and a small cup of ice, but instead of putting both in Kidnapper #1's out stretched hand she leaned over and set them on his tray, practically sticking her bosoms in Kidnapper #2's face. Kidnapper #1 rolled his eyes.

'How pleasant yet grotesque,' she thought.

"And for you?" She smiled nicely in my direction.

Sakura was debating on whether or not she wanted to see that horrid piece of flirting again. She decided her Sprite was worth it. "Yea, a Sprite, no ice."

Before the brunette could stuff any more nipple down Kidnapper #2's throat though, Kidnapper #1 grabbed the drink roughly out of her hands and said a curt 'thank you.'

"No, Thank you," Sakura said.

"Was that really necessary?" complained Kidnapper #2

"You did look a little green," he replied his breath tickling her face, ignoring the other mans comment. It smelled like peppermint, her favorite. He really was handsome. For some reason Sakura remembered the time her friend Sonya had dressed her boyfriend up as a girl for a dance. He had lost a bet, but he looked surprisingly good in a skirt and make-up. Sakura thought Kidnapper #1 would make a really pretty girl, then giggled as she pondered his reaction.

"What?" he asked, confused.

"Oh nothing," she said, grinning from ear to ear.

"Hn."

An awkward silence filled the space between the three. The brunette walked by again and Kidnapper #2 stuck his head out into the aisle to get a better look and received a scandalizing glare from an old couple sitting in the seats across from them.

"You know, just because you're an animal doesn't mean you have to act like one," growled Kidnapper #1.

"And just because you ignore the looks and winks girls give you doesn't mean I have to," said Kidnapper #2 defensively.

"Have a little pride would you."

"Have some hormones would you," Kidnapper #2 retorted getting right up into Kidnapper #1's face.

"How long is this flight?" Sakura blurted quickly try to get them to shut up. The old couple appeared to be whispering amongst themselves, probably about the two idiots sitting next to her.

"Around 14 hours," replied Kidnapper #1 calmly leaning back in his seat.

She took a second to process those words. "What?! That's ridiculous! I have to spend 14 hours with you two!" Sakura screamed horrified.

"Well yea…We are going to Japan, and it is across an ocean…" explained Kidnapper #2 slowly, like Sakura was some retard with a mental disability. She glared at him fiercely.

"Well shit!" she yelled, attracting the attention of several of their fellow first classers including the old couple once again. "Why Japan? Why me? I don't even know you! And now I'm being forced through hell just so you can get a pay day!" she screamed hysterically.

"Sasuke!" Kidnapper #2 warned, and they both slammed into business mode, taking action.

Kidnapper #1 slapped a hand over her mouth and pulled her head close as Kidnapper #2 unbuckled his seatbelt and stood abruptly, yelling for a bathroom and pulling peoples' eyes away.

"Your attracting unwanted eyes right now, and unless you want to risk you life and the lives of everyone on this plane, I suggest you shut your overactive mouth," hissed Kidnapper #1 harshly in her ear. She looked at his eyes and saw truth behind the threat. "Don't try me," he finished.

Sakura nodded her head rapidly.

'What would he do?'

'I'm guessing anything.' inner-Sakura stated.

A chill went through Sakura. The look in his eyes was burned into her memory. He slowly retracted his hand and sat back in his seat and ran a hand through his messy hair. Sakura was shaking slightly as she looked coldly out the window.

Kidnapper #2 was being escorted to a bathroom. One that was identified clearly by the huge sign on the door…

"Can I at least know why and who you are?" Sakura asked after a few seconds of deep breathing. She looked over at him but he didn't respond. She sighed turning back to the window and watched the black ocean glisten in the moon light.

"Sasuke. I'm Sasuke, and he's Naruto," he said indicating to Kidnapper #2 who was coming down the aisle.

"Sasuke," she tried. "And Naruto." Naruto looked over at her when she said his name, and gave a small wave. The names suited them she thought. And with one question answered she rested her head back and closed her eyes.

About 30 minutes later, Sakura came to terms with a few facts things.

1) She had basically missed her chance of easy escape back in San Francisco.

2) She would have a tracker surgically implanted into her butt ASAP.

3) She would also have an ipod surgically implanted into her body for times like these. Boredom was not her friend.

4) Advil, for the headaches caused by Naruto, was, from now on, essential.

5) She desperately needed to pee, but was scared to ask after the whole, 'Be scared for you life and everyone else's' thing.

'Okay Sakura, get a hold of yourself. You just need to go to the bathroom.' She looked over at Sasuke and Naruto. The former was reading a book and the latter was snoring loudly, and possibly drooling. 'But I would be disturbing them, meaning I would be making them mad. CRAP! I'm gonna pee my pants. This is so stupid just ask-'

She was cut off by Sasuke. "What's wrong with you?" he asked with out looking up from his book.

"I…uh-…I need to, umm, go to the restroom," she struggled.

"Then go," he stated.

"Oh. Okay." 'That was easy. I over analyze things to the extreme…'She unbuckled, put her tray up and stood, but stopped when she noticed Sasuke's knees were blocking the way. "Excuse me Sasuke…" she said meekly. He looked up from his book, and was almost eye to eye with her. He sighed and stood to let her pass. Sakura stepped into the small space in front of him. His body was warm and she lingered unconsciously, before moving forward. Naruto's legs were less bulky and one of them was tucked under his chin, so she quickly stepped over the other one and walked nervously to the bathroom locking the door behind her.

'That was hot!' inner-Sakura yelled excitedly. 'No that was…well yea but…never mind.'

Sakura went back to her seat expecting, and secretly hoping for, another awkward encounter, but when she got back, Sasuke was gone. She looked up and down the aisle for a second. The lights were on low and most of the cabin was sleeping, but there was no sign of the dark haired man. She shrugged and stepped back over Naruto, who was still asleep.

Sakura laid her head back and felt exhaustion over take her immediately. She was cast into a fitful sleep.

Sakura was standing at the window again. She saw the battle raging below as well.

Sakura looked around, and took a hesitant step forward. Reaching her head out she touched the tips of her fingers to the cold, smooth glass. It wavered beneath her touch and gave way. She jerked her hand back surprised, but stepped closer.

This time she put both of her palms on the glass and pushed forward. She smiled as she felt the cool, tingling sensation travel up her arm, but the smile left her face suddenly as she over balanced and fell through the glass. She shrieked in surprise as she was pitched downwards.

The ground slowed its approach towards her face, and she landed lightly on her feet. Sounds of swords clashing and soldiers dying met her ears suddenly and she flinched. Sakura was right on the edge of the action, and what she saw made her gasp in shock.

It was those beasts. They were just like the Panda and the Jaguar, but instead of being misshapen they leaped through the was zone with grace, taking out the opposition with ease.

A war cry erupted to her left and she watched as a black wolf launched itself high into the air, and came down with a crash not far from where she stood.

Sakura could see the muscles rippling underneath its pelt as it looked right at her, coal eyes shining with adrenaline.
