"You know her personally?" The boy with the pony tail asked.
"I was her tutor for a little while." Tsunade replied. "But her father fired me when I started teaching her physical knowledge. He wanted her to be smart in the mental sense, nothing physical. I started teaching her how to defend herself and to use all of that stored up energy inside of her behind his back. He found out of course and I was sent out on the streets embarrased by the 'Lord' Hiashi." She laughed when she said lord. "Tsuande, that was a long time ago. You don't have to give the girl a hard time for it. She had no control over it." The boy that kidnapped me said. "Shut up Sasuke." Tsunade snapped. "She has control over everything now." Tsunade glared at Hinata. "Tsuande you need to leave. We're not going to hurt the girl. You are better than this Tsuande. You're a good person. You're feelings are overwhelming you. Go on home; Shikamaru and I can handle her." Tsunade nodded and headed out of the cell slamming the door. Sasuke walked over and placed the locks back into place. Shikamaru lit more candles. Hinata dried her eyes and threw Sasuke's blanket back over on his pile of hay even though the room was freezing. She didn't want anything from him. She hoped she died of frostbite. It would be better than anything that happened to her from this moment on. Her last hope had been demolished. "We'll get you some blankets and hay soon love," Shikamaru winked at Hinata. Hinata scowled and rolled over on the floor. "Oh come on babe, we won't hurt you. And we won't let that scary monster hurt you either." Shikamaru sat down beside Hinata. "And if you be good we might even untie you." Hinata would not speak to the boy.
"Shika," Sasuke spoke up, "Just leave her be. She has a lot to take in. She's not used to not being able to hold her daddy's hand."
"That is not true!" Hinata shot up. "Oh yeah? Tell me about it beautiful?" Shikamaru chuckled and reached for her hand. She smacked his hand away from her.
"I don't think she's into you." Sasuke chuckled along with Shikamaru.
"I'm glad my misery amuses you." Hinata flopped back on the floor and hit her nose against the cold ground that she seen now was dirt. She let out a screech in pain and hid her face against the ground. She felt a hand on her back and heard Sasuke say, "H, let me look at your nose." She sucked up snot and shook her head. Her nose was thumping in pain. He left for a minute and came back, but this time put his hand under her chin. He lifted her face up and sighed. "Look H, you broke your nose." He wiped her nose gently with his hand and it came off red. Her nose was bleeding. She wimpered at his touch at he used the tape in his hand to set her nose. "There you are."
"Sasuke's a pro at that," Shikamaru said loudly. "He gets his nose broke like everynight."
"Eh," Sasuke contemplated the thought, "Maybe like once a month. It has to have time to heal."
"True," Shikamaru agreed. They both went quiet and silence filled the cell. "What happens next? Hinata asks after ten minutes of silence. "Nothing honestly. We can't go anywhere or do anything till dark. That's when everyone locks up for the night and we can go and snatch stuff." Shikamaru replied. "Snatch? You mean like steal?" Hinata gasped. "Hun do you think we have money for food and candles? We have to hid down here or risk being hanged in the town square. We're untouchables. They hang untouchable or if you're lucky they just burn you or beat you and leave you for the animals."
Hinata didn't speak for the rest of the night. She had been kidnapped and touched by untouchables. She was as filthy as them now.
Sasuke watched the girl closely as she curled up on the floor. "Are you sure you'll be alright here by yourself Hinata?" He asked her. She didn't move. She had been like that all day. Ignoring every word they said. Sasuke shrugged his shoulders as he slipped his dagger underneath the bandages of his left arm. He grabbed a roll of bandages and began to roll it around his face, covering everything but his nose and eyes. Shikamaru did the same. "Are you sure you want to leave her here alone?" Shikamaru whispered to Sasuke. "Don't you think she'll pull something?"
"If she does she'll die. No loss," Sasuke said loud enough for her to hear. He felt a pang in his chest. He didn't mean to scare her, but he needed to. His life was on the line. Sasuke and Shikamaru made their way out of the cell and through the various tunnels quickly. They entered the alley above and grabbed a barrel. Shikamaru threw it on his back and continued to run with Sasuke. They sped through a backyard where Sasuke grabbed a few clothes and blankets from the clothes line for Hinata and then headed for the farm. Shikamaru grabbed hay while Sasuke grabbed some vegetables from the fields. They headed back, grabbing fruit from the trees and throwing them into the barrel on Shikamaru's back, and went to the barn which held a water pump. Sasuke grabbed a small barrel from one of the horse stalls, rinsed it out, and filled it with water from the pump. They quickly ran back to the tunnels, the stars lighting their way.
When they got back to the cell, they found Hinata in the same position she was in when they left. They placed the barrels on the ground and started emptying their cargo. Shikmaru began to make Hinata a bed while Sasuke wet a cloth. He walked over to Hinata and rolled her over. He helped her sit up against the wall and he took the tape from her nose. She watched him intently, letting out a gasp of pain occasionally, as he washed her broken nose. When he was finished he applied new tape and got her a glass of the water from the barrel. She didn't want to drink it but she didn't have a choice. She was thirsty enough to drink the filthy water. Shikamaru placed Hinata's new clothes and blankets on her new mound of hay, beside Sasuke's and helped her over to it. She plopped down in it and watched Sasuke as he placed all the vegetables and fruit onto the mock table by the clock. Her mouth watered. She was so hungry. Sasuke bit into a rip, juicy tomato and he tossed Shikamaru one. He tossed Hinata a peach and she graciously bit into the fruit. After the peach, she was offered an apple and some radishes and she ate them quickly.
"You have a big appitite dear," Shika mused at the girl. She said nothing. "I got you some new clothes. I thought you might be more comfortable in something that wasn't quite as revealing..." Sasuke sipped on his cup of water. Hinata glanced down at her almost see through nightgown and thought the purple one was much better. But then another though crossed her mind. She wasn't wearing a bra, and it was quite obvious. Her face flushed red as she turned around so they couldn't see her. "We won't look," Shika put his hand over his eyes, spreading his fingers.
"Come on dobe," Sasuke grabbed Shikamaru by his ear and dragged him out of the cell. "Just call when you're done." Sasuke told Hinata. She nodded and he closed the door. She changed quickly before he changed his mind.
