Last chapter...
"Should we even bother to lock him up?"
"Yeah, he'd be easier to kick if he's in the air."
Rattling of chains and the thud of something hitting bruised flesh was heard, along with the moans and groans of the unlucky prisoner.
Snap.
"Pathetic, a couple cracked ribs and a broken jaw and he passes out on us."
Drip, drip…. Drip, drip… Drip, drip…. Drip, drip….. Drip, drip…
The rusty door opened again and foot steps leading away from the unlucky prisoner's cell and right to Deidara's.
"Your turn pretty boy."
TTT
The halls where deathly quiet as the intruder slipped silently down the hall. Not a sound was heard; unusually for the compound she was in, especially considering that it was midmorning. The lack of sound only increased the intruder's nervousness, particularly when she neared her targets room.
Opening the door carefully, the intruder slithered into the infant's room. Her target was a young baby, but not just any young baby. This particular baby had curly brown hair and blue-green eyes. This seemed odd to the intruder, for every person she had seen in this compound all had the same features. Most members had straight black, or what would have been black in their younger years, hair and dark colour eyes. How strange for such a child to have been born into this clan.
Shrugging, the intruder quickened her pace and scanned the room for traps. Finding none, the intruder closed the door and made her way over to the infants crib.
The crib itself was nothing to special, a little fancier then most. It was a light green colour with a light blue padded blanket going over the rails. Everything in the room was completely child proof. Not one sharp edge was showing. Even on the top of the mirror on the dresser. The dresser itself matched the crib along with the two bed tables. The only lamp in the room had a white base with a light blue shade. The rocking chair in the corner was also white and had a quilt draped over the back. The quilt itself was very beautiful. It was mostly a soft orange with bright red roses stitched into the fabric lovingly. The fact that the room was so neutral in colour made the quilt stands out even more brightly.
Looking into the crib, the intruder saw a bulge in the blue blanket. Reaching into the crib, the intruder pulled back the blanket only to find a teddy bear in the place where her target was supposed to be.
"Damn it!"
Spinning on her heels, the intruder failed to notice the thin tripwire by her foot. Thusly activating the trap that was meant to keep the baby safe. Before the intruder knew what was happening she was hanging upside down in the air with a very large, and very angry, chakra force heading towards the bedroom.
"Shit."
Pulling a kunai from her pocket, the intruder stabbed herself in the stomach and disappeared in a puff of smoke just as the door flew opened.
Itachi had arrived just in time to see the intruder's puff of smoke dissipate into the air. Running to the crib, Itachi threw the blanket onto the floor only to find the teddy bear.
"Ringo..." Putting his hand onto the soft bedding, Itachi let out a long low groan. How could he let this happen to the baby? He was about to jump out of the window when he realized something. The bedding was cold. Nothing living had been in the crib for at least an hour. His trap had just been activated. Meaning that not only was the intruder not responsible but someone else had taken the small child.
Inhaling the young man could smell something very faint. He could smell chemicals and not just any chemicals either. He smelt the faint odour that hung in the hospital and all those who have been in the hospital recently.
Jumping out the window and then onto the roof, Itachi stretched his senses. With so many people, he had a hard time finding the one he was looking for. In fact it was damn near impossible. She was already out of range.
However Lady Luck seemed to be smiling on him, he could detect someone who would know where she and the baby had gone.
Jumping from roof top to roof top. Itachi head north east, following Sai and his ink creations.

The woman known as Sakura had only been running for a couple of hours. It was hard work. She had to run around a lot of trees and her body wasn't use to this sort of treatment. She could already feel her legs tire as her lungs burn with every breath she took.
Leaning her right shoulder against a solid oak, Sakura shrugged off her backpack and carefully slide down the tree trunk holding the bundle tightly bound to her chest.
The bundle began to wiggle at the sudden lack of movement.
Gasping for much need oxygen, Sakura untied the bundle warily.
With a small grunt, the now wakeful infant took in her surroundings before grinning up at the young woman, giggling as she did so.
"Shhhh Sweetly , we must be quiet." The panting woman whispered.
"Silence will not hide you from me." Came a velvety, soft masculine voice from behind her left shoulder.
With a gasp, Sakura bolted further into the depth of the forest, clutching the baby to her chest. This, however, was all for not. Itachi was on her heels almost just as quickly. Thanks to his longer legs, he was able to cut her off within ten paces.
"Where are you going Sakura?" Sakura made a 90 degree turn and ran to her right.
"Why are you following me?" she asked him when he easily matched her speed.
"I care for you." Throwing his arm around her waist, carefully so he would not hit Ringo, Itachi pulled her into his chest. Effectively trapping her within his steel like grip, this quickly turned into an embrace as he buried his face into her hair.
"I know you are scared and confused and that you feel all alone in this world Sakura. But know that I am here for you." Itachi whispered into her hair.
Stunned, Sakura just stood there listening to his strong heart beat.
"Come back to the village with me and together I will show you who you really are."
Nodding the young woman let the young man led her back to her nap sack and then in the direction of the village.
"How did you find me?" She whispered.
"Sai was following you."
Looking around, the young woman saw nothing of the slim figured male.
"I can't see him. Where is he?"
"Do you really want to know?"
"Well yes, otherwise I wouldn't have asked... AHHHHH!" Before the sentence had even left her mouth, Itachi scooped her up in his arms and took off into the trees.
"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?" She shrieked into his ear, hanging on for dear life.
"Look up."
Doing as she was told, Sakura looked up and saw Sai, with his cheesy fake smile on his face, give her a wave as he flew off on top of one of his ink creatures.

What had taken Sakura hours to achieve in distance, took Itachi minutes. Running and jumping from tree branch to tree branch was certainly much quicker than running on the ground.
After only a half an hour of running, Sakura, Itachi and Ringo were standing outside of Sakura's apartment. Sai was sent to the Hokage to informer her of Sakura's little outing.
Reaching up Itachi grasped the spare key on top of the door frame and unlocked the door. Turning the handle and giving the door a push, then the Uchiha let the young women in first.
"I use to live here?" Sakura asked as she explored the apartment that apparently belong to her.
"You still do." Itachi hadn't left the front hallway; he was content in just watching the young female explore her surroundings. Ringo was beginning to fuse. She was making small grunts and cries.
"Then why isn't there any baby stuff?" Walking back to Itachi, Sakura took her backpack from him. Balancing Ringo in one arm, Sakura tried to open the zipper.
"Here." Taking Ringo from Sakura, Itachi gently rocked the babe back and forth as she began to wail.
"Thanks." Sakura pulled out the baby's bottle along with powder formula and a bottle of water. Finishing preparing the bottle, Sakura handed it to Itachi so he could feed Ringo.
"You never did answer my question." Sakura turned and walked towards the book shelf.
"Sit down."
"No and you will tell me. Why isn't there anything in here for a baby? No clothes, toys, bedding? Not even any pictures."
"Ringo became your daughter four months ago."
"What do you mean?"
"We were sent on a mission in Rain, our team was sent to recover a missing ANBU couple, if they were still alive. If in the case of them already being dead, we were to gather any information on them and their mission. In the process of this recon, you discovered their child." Looking at Ringo, Itachi saw that she was done drinking. Taking the now empty bottle out of Ringo's mouth, Itachi turned her around and began to burp her. "My mother and I have started to give her baby food." Itachi looked back at Sakura just in time to see her start to sway. Rushing over Itachi put a steady arm around her waist and led her to the couch. "I told you to sit down."
"So she's not really mine?" Tears had starting to leak out of her eyes.
"She was yours from the moment you first picked her up."
"What about her parents? They will want her back. How could they not? They are probably looking for her right now!"
"They are not looking for her."
"How do you know?" Sakura was crying now, large fat tears were streaming down her face.
"Because they are no longer living."
"What?"
"They are dead." Shocked, Sakura laid back on the couch and closed her eyes.
Taking a toy out of the backpack, Itachi gave it to Ringo and placed her on the floor to play. This done, Itachi stood up and went into the bathroom. The sound of running water was heard and was quickly shut off. Walking back into the living room, Itachi sat down beside Sakura and started wiping her face.
"Get changed, we will get lunch."
"GAA!" Giggling Ringo rocked back and forth with her tiny fist in her mouth.

Eyes fluttering opening, Deidara tried to take in his surroundings. He was in a dark room with the only light coming from above his head. He was strapped to a hard steel table. To his right was another steel table. This one was about half the size of the table he was on. There were several dozen different tools on it, each more sinister looking then the last. Knives, scalpels, wires, hammers, needles. Each tool was very sharp looking and each was capable of doing great harm to him.
'Not good, have to get out of here, yeah.'
"Oh so you're awake, well we will have to fix that." Picking up a long sharp needle, the owner of the new voice stabbed it into a vein in Deidara's arm. "This should do the trick, you will begin to feel sleepy in a few minutes." Pushing his glasses further up his nose, the new comer turned and left Deidara's line of sight. Within a few seconds, Deidara fell back asleep.

Walking around her 'room,' Sakura was trying to figure out what to wear for their apparent lunch 'date.' Clothes were thrown about the once orderly room. For reasons unknown to the young woman, she was incredibly nervous. Walking back to her closet, Sakura began pulling out more clothing. On one side were, at least what she assumed to be, mission clothes. This took up most of the closet. On the other side were what appeared to be more lady-like clothes. Unfortunately most of these were out of the question. Half of them looked like they belong to someone's grandmother, all of which still had their price tags on them and 'happy birthday Sakura' signs on them. The other half showed way too much skin. Sinking to the floor, Sakura was about to give up when a knock on the door disturbed her.
"What?" The disgruntled female barked.
Opening the door, Itachi walked into the room with Ringo in one arm with the other behind his back.
"I will be back in an hour. Will this give you enough time to prepare?"
"Oh defiantly, I just need to put on my shoes." With a huff Sakura laid back onto the floor, using a pile of clothes for a pillow.
"Hn." Tossing a green wrapped box onto Sakura's tummy, Itachi turned a left the room.
"What's this for?" Sakura called out.
"Welcome home." And with that, the Uchiha and the baby left the apartment in a puff of smoke.
Turn to his word, there was a knock on Sakura's front door exactly 60 minutes later. Sakura had showered and changed into the beautiful sun dress that was inside the present the Uchiha had thrown at her.
Her new dress was absolutely beautiful. It was long and flowed out from her hips. It was pure white with small cherry blossoms at the bottom right hem of the dress. It was a halter top dress with an attached belt the tided on her left hip. The belt's ties went down to her mid-thigh and the dress ended just below her knee cap. The end of the ties also had cherry blossoms on it. The only thing she had to find was matching shoes and some light make-up. Just eye shadow, blush and lip gloss.
Slipping on the white sandals Sakura walked to the door and opened it to reveal a very sexy Uchiha and a very adorable baby.
Ringo was Dress in a blue sun dress with a matching bonnet and booties. She was laughing and pulling on Itachi's ponytail with her fist in her mouth. Itachi was dress in a navy blue dress shirt and black dress pants. The fact that he was holding a cute baby just made him all the more attractive. Needless to say, Sakura was speechless.
"MA! MA!" Reaching out with her chubby hands, Ringo tried to dive for her mother.
"Careful sweetie." Laughing, Sakura took Ringo into her arms.
Throwing her arms around her mother's neck, Ringo settled in and was content to just stay where she was.
Smirking, Itachi closed and locked Sakura's door and placed his hand on her waist, directing her to the stairs.
"I can't wait for lunch, I'm starving." Sakura said as the entered the stair well, earning her a small smile from the quiet male.

For the second time that day, Deidara woke up in a strange room. This time however was much different. His right arm was in agony. Looking down almost made Deidara pass out again. His forearm was cut open, but not only the skin, but also the hard mussel as well. His upper arm had a leather belt tied tightly around it, to help slow the blood flow. Even with the belt, there was blood everywhere on the once clean steel table. The mouths on his hand was spread wide open and it was this that the same man from before was working on.
Looking up, the man with the glasses saw that his 'patient' was now once again awake.
"What and interesting blood line limit you have. I have never seen anything like this before. Are you the last of your clan?"
"Have you learned all you need to know yet Kabuto?" came a harsh whisper from the dark.
"Yes Master."
"Good I do not want another mistake like what happened to the eye again. Is that clear?"
"Yes sir!" Removing the pins from Deidara's arm. Kabuto began to close up the mussel and skin. Once finished, he removed the pieces from the mouth on his hand.
Picking up Deidara's hand, Kabuto pushed back the lips to expose the teeth and then pulled the tongue out of the mouth.
"Remarkable." Pushing the tongue back into the mouth Kabuto let out a started scream as the teeth came down hard on his finger.
"Kukukukukuku."
It was at this point that Deidara passed out into the blessed darkness.

Salutations one and all, I am sorry that I have not updated lately, been busy at work and now schools going to start again. _; But I'll try real hard to update more. Any who this story is about halfway through. I know it's been a little shaky but I'm working on it making senses. Also I started working on the next chapter of Rose Maiden. So hopefully that will be up soon.

Heart you all!
