This is the second part of what happened to Sakura.

Chapter 5

Weeks had passed and faeries were still giving her glares and Ino had ignored her too. Sakura just got used to the way people were acting with her. She couldn't quite comprehend the reason why everybody was being manipulated by Sasuke, but she would ignore every single one of them, even if it meant ignoring Ino too. It hurt thinking that she was not going to spend time anymore with her best friend, but it had to be done.

Sakura was coming back from the store where she had gone out to get a snack. It was almost nightfall but in the faery realm there weren't many dangers for the faeries wandering around at night.

When she got to her home in the forest, she started making dinner for herself and taking out all the groceries she had bought.

In the past weeks, most of her time was spent alone in her house and throughout the days she had gotten used to it.

She started eating her meal when she heard rustling by the window, so she got up to see what it was. It was dark but she could see perfectly clear since the forest was her domain. She thought it was just an animal passing by, although she knew that wasn't the case since animals were rarely seen in the faerie realm. The animals belonged in the human realm but there were times when for some odd reason they appeared in the faerie realm, but they always stayed a distance away from the faeries.

She opened up the window to see, but she was hit with something the moment she stuck out her head. She touched her face with her fingers and she realized that it was mud what had been thrown at her. She heard laughter and when she cleared her eyes of the mud, she got hit with more mud. She was sure it was those faeries that always followed Sasuke everywhere, doing whatever he said.

She cleared her eyes once more backing up into her house in case they decided to throw more, and when she opened her eyes and saw who was outside her window she felt her heart drop.

Ino was outside with some other girl faeries. The girls were ones Sakura recognized, they were the crazy fan-girls that had major crushes on Sasuke. Sakura knew they were doing Sasuke's bidding but she just didn't understand why Ino was with them also. Sure, Ino also liked Sasuke but Sakura never thought that Ino would choose to harm her in order of a boy.

It hurt her to see that the person she thought was her best friend was now throwing mud at her. She was about to close the window when she heard the girls yell out "No one hits Sasuke and gets away with it!. Learn your place." Sakura saw from behind the window as Ino and the girls were walking away in the direction of the village.

She just turned around and went back to the kitchen to wash her hands and continue eating. She sat down and a second later there was somebody behind her with a knife at her throat. She didn't even notice the presence of someone in the room and she thought it might have been because her mind was too preoccupied with what had just happened with Ino. She was about to fight back when someone put a hand on her mouth.

"Don't struggle unless you want the knife to cut your neck" After that sentence Sakura knew exactly who it was. Sasuke.

Although she didn't know why he was using a knife since all faeries had their own powers. She just assumed that Sasuke was just messing around with her. Her assumptions were proven right when Sasuke started laughing while removing his hand and the knife from her.

She was filled with rage at how he just laughed as if nothing had just happened with him and the other faeries. She just stood and stared at him.

"Did you like my little present with the girls just now?"

She wasn't going to please him by saying what she thought about what had happened with the girls so she just stayed quiet. "So your not going to talk to me then? I see. I guess ill have to make you talk to me"

At that instant Sakura saw black chains surround her body but they didn't look like normal chains. They seemed shadowy as if they were just an illusion but they felt real and cold against her skin. It took her a few seconds to realize that the chains must be what Sasuke could control since he was a dark faerie, and dark faeries powers were linked to shadows and dark things. The chains then tightened and she got pulled toward Sasuke.

They wrapped all around her making it hard to breath and when she was just a few inches away from Sasuke did she realized why everyone always seemed to like the dark faeries. It wasn't that they liked them, it was probably because they all feared those kind of faeries. Being in front of Sasuke and also being squeezed by those shadowy chains made Sakura fill up with fear. The anger she had was washed out with the idea that he could actually kill her if he wanted to, and she really didn't want to die. But that didn't mean that she was going to let him do what ever he wanted with her, she was going to fight back.

He had control over dark chains and he seemed stronger than her at the time but her ability was the use of trees, and they were in the forest so she had the upper hand. She willed trees to grow rapidly between the space between her and Sasuke, making him step back and loose control over his chains. The chains vanished and she ran out the house, which had been partly destroyed when she made the tree grow to get Sasuke away from her.

She got outside and she was about to run to the village when she felt something cold on her ankle and the next thing she knew she was on the ground. She looked back and she saw Sasuke's chains around her ankle. She tried to take them off when more chains appeared and wrapped themselves around her neck choking her. That's when Sasuke appeared out of the darkness and stood in front of her.

She was struggling to breath and she was moving her body trying to get herself free but the chains had wrapped around her entire body. Sasuke looked at her with his onyx eyes and told her "It'll get worse if you struggle"

she ignored him and she felt that her left arm was less tight than the rest of her body. So with one swing she ripped the chain and was about to destroy the rest but then the chains changed shape. She felt them a lot more tighter and what she felt next made her gasp. The chains turned into thorny vines. She couldn't believe Sasuke was using her own magic source against her. She was about to destroy them but instead they started twisting and bending everywhere. It loosened around her neck but it was slowly tearing at her skin and especially around her arms.

Not being able to take the pain she screamed in agony as tears started to drop down her face.

Sasuke with a smug look on his face chuckled "I told you" He then sighed "I don't understand why you didn't just give in when I asked nicely" He then looked up at the sky and said "it'll be dawn in a few hours I should probably wrap things up here" He then kneeled down and took her face in his hands and saw the fear in her emerald eyes.

He got up and was about to pick her up but suddenly one of the elders' minions appeared out of thin air. The minion gave him a scroll and said "Master urgent message" Sasuke cursed at whoever had sent the message but took the scroll anyways; urgent messages were always from the elders. He then started walking back to the village and then he called out "I'll be back, don't let her escape" he gave the minion a firm look and then he disappeared.

The minion then turned and looked at the bloody sobbing pink headed girl on the ground. He then sat on a nearby tree and started sharpening the scythe he had.

Meanwhile Sakura was sobbing on the ground thinking why was all of this happening to her. Why did Sasuke have to turn her best friend against her? Why did he want HER of all people?! She didn't understand anything anymore. She would've tried escaping the instant Sasuke left but where would she run to? The village was no longer safe and Sasuke knew where she lived. She had no other choice but to give in. It hurt knowing that nobody would help her, the people she had trusted would probably turn their backs to her.

Even though she felt the vines loose on her, she had given up all thoughts of escaping. She then turned her head preparing herself for when Sasuke came back. She turned and saw the blood surrounding her and thought to herself 'red' what a nice color. In her mind she kept repeating the word red until it finally hit her. Red! Images of the boy with red hair started flooding her mind. Suddenly a spark lit in her, she couldn't go down without first seeing the red headed boy one last time.

Sakura looked up and saw that the minion was preoccupied with his scythe. Seeing that he wasn't paying attention to her, she slowly took off the now loose vines which were not as strong as when Sasuke was present. The instant the last vine came off she sprinted up and ran as fast as she could away from the minion. Surprised at her actions the minion got up and was about to run after her but suddenly vines started growing from the tree he was just sitting on and were wrapping fast around him. Sakura climbed up a tree and was jumping from tree branch to tree branch. She was ignoring her body's cry for her to stop moving because she needed to get as far away as she could, because she didn't know when Sasuke would come back.

With every step she took, she absorbed a little bit of energy from the trees she stepped on. The only thing on her mind was the red headed boy. Suddenly she felt that something had slashed her right arm and she lost her balance from the tree branch she was on. She screamed out as she slid down the tree trunk holding her bloody arm. From the shadows the minion came out and said "Thought that little trick of yours was funny?"

He then raised his arms, scythe in hand and then said "Well this is even funnier" and was about to slash her legs but at that moment Sakura put her hand on the tree that was behind her and screamed. Green light flooded her vision as she closed her eyes.

When she opened them the minion was nowhere to be seen. She then saw blood coming from underneath the tree in front of her and when she looked up there was the minions scythe sticking half way through the tree. She gasped, did she do that? She was very confused. Where had she getten so much power from? She had no idea that a forest faerie like her would be able to defeat a minion that belonged to the elders. She was still on the ground but it took her a few minutes to process what had just happened but after a while she got her mind set back to what she was previously thinking.

She got up but stumbled and winced a bit at the intense pain coming from her arm. Proceeding on her path, ignoring everything, she finally ended up in the human realm. Running from roof to roof she finally got to where the red headed boy lived. She went to where she presumed was his room and just stood outside his window. When she saw him on his desk through the curtains, everything that had just happened hit her and she fell to the ground sobbing. Then she heard his window creak and she didn't expect to see his beautiful jade eyes looking right at her for the second time. She then thought for a second. Sasuke didn't know about the red headed boy, so she might be able to hide from Sasuke for the time being, but only if the red headed boy let her stay with him. Although he was human and knew nothing about her, she wished with all her heart that he would help.
