AnimeAddict99- This chapter is took forever. wouldn't let my upload for awhile….so yeah. Blame them.
I'm so sorry for the delay. Stress has been overcoming me lately. --; Don't kill me.
Review Response—I'll give you a response if I feel the need to. :)
runwithskizzers- Oo Oops. Well I updated in…two and a half months. Don't worry though, the next chapter is already being written!!
Epiff Annie- Thanks so much! Haha…I love ItaSaku. It's actually my favorite pairing. I hope to bring up some more of it in the future. When this story I done—I'm hoping to write an ItaSaku, so yay!! Thanks for the review!
Ur2tRoUbLeSoMe90- No KabuSaku- haha…you are going to hate me in this chapter! -- It's one-sided, though…so maybe you won't kill me.
Sekiryu- Ahh! Interragation! Well, Orochimaru is, what, in his –hisses- late fifties by now. He and Sakura didn't have a real meeting, "Hello, my name is," like she and Kabuto had. Anyway, the real reason is: -hypnotizes- He. Just. Doesn't. Care. He. Is. A. Lustful. Geezer. :D
Thanks to everyone else as well!! Your reviews are deeply loved.
Enjoy. I've been going through a lot, so this took awhile.
Oh! And a big thanks to my uber famtasmic Beta: Blacksash. Who, once more, has saved me from very ugly errors.
::Re-Cap:: He nuzzled closer, his mouth hovering outside her ear.
"I find it funny," he whispered, "don't you, Sakura-san, that Konoha could really think that a silly mission like yours would actually be successful?"
Sakura's eyes widened as she froze on the spot.
"Orochimaru-sama instructed me to introduce you to Sasuke-sama…you'd like that wouldn't you?"
Sakura scowled silently. "Damn it…" she muttered.
"Don't worry, Sakura-san. Orochimaru-sama hasn't figured you out…yet."
Sakura scooted backwards. There was no way out of this- unless….
"Please…Kabuto…I'll do anything. Anything." She needed to see Sasuke again. She would die if she didn't.
"Anything?" he muttered, snickering at her remark.
"Anything."
Kabuto chuckled as he brought himself to a standing position.
"Welcome to the family- Toreishii-sama."

He led her down the hallway, his fingers wrapped around hers, pulling her closer as she tried to pull away slightly, her feet stumbling as a result.
They continued their stroll until the darkness of the corridor seemingly became even darker, which Sakura wouldn't have thought possible, if not from her current experience.
"Here we are," Kabuto sated matter-of-factly, stopping and releasing his grip on the female shinobi.
Thankful, Sakura peered around the hall. They were…where? There was no door, no window…no…person...to…see…them.
Shit….
"Kabuto, where is he?" Sakura asked quietly, hiding the nervous butterflies in her stomach. "Where is Sasuke-kun?"
A devilish grin filled Kabuto's face as she moved a step closer, pinning her into the wall.
Sakura's breath hitched. She took a deep breath as she revisited the question. "Where…is…-"
She had no time to finish her sentence. Kabuto slammed her arms against the wall in a lustful manner. "Heh…Sakrua-chan" he muttered, "how much will you sacrifice to keep yourself from being found out?" His head neared her mouth, and his lips crashed onto hers. He continued with grabbing her wrists so she couldn't move from her current position.
Sakura gasped, giving Kabuto the opportunity to thrust his tongue into her mouth. Sakura's eyes widened as she choked on the chunk of material that was Kabuto's tongue. Pushing her deeper into the wall, Sakura let a disgruntled moan slip from her mouth. Grinning against her mouth, Kabuto released one of his hands from her wrist and slid it down to her back, forcing it to arch slightly into his chest. With the advantage of having less of a grip on her hands, Sakura began to channel chakra into her fists, and she finally thrust them forward, knocking Kabuto unconscious onto the floor.
Or at least she hoped.
Using the freedom she had gained, Sakura burst from her spot against the wall and began to race back down the hallway, away from the maniac who had trapped her.
Thoughts raced around Sakura's head. She couldn't just wander deeper into Orochimaru's lair…she couldn't…she couldn't….
"Orochimaru-kun!"
This was the only possibility for her. Her cover was most likely blown from her "Kabuto incident," so she had to be quick.
"Orochimaru-kun!" she called louder, stumbling back down the hallway. It was dark for quite awhile as she wandered, shouting Orochimaru's name aloud.
However, finally, finally, she got a response.
"Orochimaru-kun!"
"Toreishii," a voice called from the distance. She heard Orochimaru's footsteps become louder as well as quicken as they neared each other.
"Oh, Orochimaru-kun, I was so scared!" Sakura cried, wrapping her arms around the snake-man's neck. "I-I was walking with Kabuto-kun, we got separated!" She let out a fake cry, and buried her head into Orochimaru's shoulder. Her voice quieted down. "I kept calling for him. I was so afraid!"
Orochimaru immediately sympathized with the weeping kunoichi. He placed his left hand on her back while his right found its way to Sakura's pink curls. Snake-like eyes glared out into the distance.
"Not to worry, Toreishii," Orochimaru chuckled, releasing her slowly. They stood face-to-face now, Orochimaru's skinny body hovering over hers like a hawk over its prey. Let me get you properly settled then," he muttered, and with a snap of his fingers, two masked Sound shinobi appeared before them.
The first one was a short, stout man. He had an Anbu mask on his face; however, it was cracked down the middle, and one could catch a glimpse of a dark green eye glaring out.
The second was covered with a black cloak. He looked less like a life form and more like a curtain.
Turning to face them, Orochimaru stated, "Inform Sasuke-kun that we have a visitor who will be sharing quarters with him until a separate room is built." He turned to Sakura and grinned, before looking away. The henchman remained. "That is all," he stated firmly, almost annoyed by them. They nodded ubiquitously and disappearing in a puff of smoke.

Orochimaru, his deed done, turned to Sakura and coiled his arm around Sakura, pulling her close. Sakura was happy that from this angle, thankfully, Orochimaru couldn't see the look of utter disgust on her face. He turned his head at another angle, and he slowly placed his head at the crook of Sakura's neck and began to suck lightly, up and down her neck.
The spontaneous event was too much for Sakura. A small moan escaped from the female's lips, instigating a further domination over her. Sakura, beet red, had to stop this at once. However, under this compromising situation- well, quite frankly, that wasn't in her mind. An unwanted ecstasy was only growing…and to shame, Sakura wouldn't- no, couldn't stop it. Her digits shivered and her shameful-
"Ahem."
Everything stopped at that moment for Sakura. Her eyes shot open as her head turned around to find her first love.
Uchiha Sasuke.
The awkward silence that was destined to fill the air was overcome by the sound of Orochimaru's chuckles. Looking into the eyes of the Uchiha, Orochimaru began to speak.
"Sasuke-kun," he began, a light smile forming on his face, "you have, I hope, been informed that Toreishii-chan will be sharing a room with you until hers is completed." The "chan," perhaps, was added to imply ownership, maybe dominance over the common whore- but at the time, it was overlooked.
"Hn," Sasuke replied. A yes? A no? Possibly a, "Hey snake-face! I was sleeping!" Once again- it was overlooked.
"Good, good," Orochimaru replied, his slender hand finding itself on the side of his waist. The silence started to overcome the- "Acquaint! Acquaint!" Orochimaru spontaneously stated. "Dinner is at six- fresh clothing has already been delivered to your room, Toreishii-chan. Enjoy you free time." With a snicker, he disappeared in yet another cloud of smoke.

There it was again. Damn the silence- wherever and whenever it occurs- it only creates awkwardness. Unless your name is Uchiha Sasuke and you happen to be walking away from Haruno Sakura.
"Sasuke?" Sakura muttered as she watched him start to wander.
"Hn."
"Aren't you- um…I dunno, ask me how I've been?" Sasuke had known no other girls with pink hair, green eyes, and well, she had been his teammate. So why the feigned ignorance?
"I don't even know you."
The words struck Sakura like lightening. Sakura just slowly shook her head and started to follow the Uchiha. "Go…gomen nasai, Uchiha-sama, it's just from my country-"
"Shut up...you're an annoying whore."
Sighing, Sakura bowed her head in apology once more and followed her love faithfully down the corridor.
This was going to be a long mission.
X,X
What boggled Sakura's mind the most was that Sasuke did not remember her. She kept trying to push the fact out of her head. Instead, she tried to focus on the mission. Clues, hints- damn the sexy Uchiha. His outfit wasn't helping either. He wore nothing but a pair of loose grey pants and a royal purple waist sash that was begging to be pulled off. He was built- even more than before. However, his body remained a shadow of the past…scars and bruises. His hair had lengthened. Though not at his shoulders, it found its place behind his ears and on the nape of his neck.
Sakura released another sigh as they reached the door of Sasuke's room. It wasn't much of a door- in fact, all that lay there was the Uchiha symbol carved into the wall. She watched dazedly as Sasuke placed his hand somewhere by the symbol and felt his way for it. The darkness made it tough to see the small carving in the wall. When he found his fingers on it, he channeled chakra though the tips of his fingers and the door faded. An illusion.
Sakura followed him into the room, inspecting it as she entered. Surprisingly, it wasn't as dull as she thought it would be. It wasn't lavish and beautiful, but it wasn't dull either. It was the inside of a cavern, so the walls and floors were grey stone. A bed with royal blue blankets was in the left corner, while a small nightstand with a candle and a few books pilled upon it. There was also a small, chocolate colored couch in one corner. It was there Sakura chose to seat herself. She watched as Sasuke neared an open crevice that seemed to be a closet, giving a small cough. Sakura took that as an invitation. This must have been where Orochimaru had hung her clothes.
"Retrieve your outfit," he muttered in a monotone voice. Sakura nodded and scurried over to him. Peering into the closet, Sakura released a small gasp. The closet was filled with an abundance of the most beautiful kimonos she had ever seen. She smiled in awe as she plucked a light green kimono from a hanger. She backed away and grabbed a pair of black flats that would be covered by the dress's chain.
She bowed to Sasuke, timidly asking, "Uchiha-sama, would you mind turning around." He nodded and turned, crossing his arms in the process.
Completing her changing, Sakura heard a swift knock on the door. Sasuke opened the door, and Sakura, furthermore, bit her lip.
"Toreishii-san," he muttered with no expression. "Sasuke-sama."
"Kabuto-sama!" Sakura cried, rushing toward him, bowing her head. She had to fix what she messed up before, even if it meant using her female body to do so. "I'm sorry I disobeyed your orders before. Please, please. Let me make it up to you. Uchiha-sama, I will see you at dinner?" She gave a timid smile and dragged a confused Kabuto out of the room.
X,X
The door shut behind them as Sakura gingerly dragged him by his wrist into another hallway. Kabuto stared with confusion, "What the hell-"
Without letting him start his sentence, Sakura crashed her lips onto his. It was she who shoved him into the wall this time. With no response from the white haired teenager, she pressed harder into him. He then started to respond heatedly. She opened his mouth, and he immediately pushed his tongue into the depths of hers. Letting her tongue engage in a dance with his, Sakura heard a choked moan from Kabuto.
This was the only way to keep her name silent- she would do it convincingly this time and not chicken out. Just earlier that day she had almost lost her deal with Kabuto. For all she knew, Kabuto had already told Orochimaru. Hopefully, he hadn't.
For now, however, Sakura had to be focused at the task at hand. Having lost her concentration, she found herself against the wall now. Kabuto put his right hand over her against the wall and the other one on the side of the face. Kabuto tilted his head and hit a sensitive spot of Sakura, for she let out a strangled moan. This just pushed Kabuto over the edge. "Sa-ku-ra," he muttered, pronouncing every syllable with care as he became involved in their sexual act. Both breathing heavily.
"Heh," Sakura breathed, pulling away. She looked dreamily into Kabuto's eyes. "Kabuto…kun," she whispered. "I would like to apologize for earlier," she whispered seductively. "If I may make it up to you," she began.
"Of…course," Kabuto answered, almost drunken on Sakura's kiss.
"That's…good," Sakura stated. Just to seal the deal, Sakura began planting small kisses on Kabuto's neck, making him whimper.
"Kabuto-kun?" She asked quietly, as she continued kissing up and down his neck.
"Hm?" Kabuto responded in a daze.
"You were the only one who recognized me. Have I really changed so much I'm no longer recognizable?" She asked sadly.
Kabuto went on the offensive, as he took Sakura's head and pushed it up, nibbling on her neck. Seeing that Sakura had this mark, Kabuto targeted it. Whenever it was touched by Kabuto, Sakura whimpered loudly, feeling a source of heat rush through her.
"Ka..Kabuto-ku..kun," Sakura whispered, pressing on his chest. "I-I've got to go back to Sasuke's room now. Maybe he needs-"
Freezing as Kabuto began chuckling darkly.
He kissed her forehead. "You haven't realized it yet, have you?"
"Wha..what?" Sakura whispered. This was all disgusting, but this seduction was working, and that was all that mattered.
"Why he..Sasuke…doesn't recognize you. You have indeed grown. Someone as old as Orochimaru doesn't remember those of the past unless he chooses...and he choose not to remember you. Sasuke…on the other hand…."
Sakura nodded as she received another kiss on her forehead.
"What do you mean?" Sakura murmured, exerting a fake sigh.
"It's not that he doesn't recognize you, Sakura-chan," he muttered, finally placing a final kiss on Sakura' mouth. "He can't see you clearly enough to know it's you."
He went in for another kiss, but Sakura pushed him off in shock. "Kabuto-kun," Sakura said in vain, "what do you mean?"
Kabuto placed a hand on her face once again, his mouth only centimeters from hers as he began to chuckle.
"Sakura-chan," he whispered into her mind, " he's going blind."

AnimeAddict99- That's the end of "chapter four." –sigh- That took FOREVER. I hope it was to everyone's liking: even the KabuSaku haters. I don't much like the pairing myself- but it's one-sided…so…yeah -shrugs-. Considering I have 51 people on my review alert…I am expecting my number of reviews to double. 3
I'll try to update more often. I'm in Drama Club- so I have a hard time finding free time.
Ja ne till next time!
