Don't own Naruto .o.o.

"talking"

'thinking'

"Orochimaru!" Sasuke was ballistic when he busted open the front foor of the mansion he swore to never set foot in again. Every guard and drug dealer that stood in his way was brought down with a carefully placed punch to a vital part of their body; he didn't have the time or bullets to waste on the second rate help. Once all the men were taken care of that worked for Orochimaru that only left the women, and the business men they were working on.

Sasuke pulled his gun on the first whore he saw leaving room. "Where is he!?"

The young girl jumped out of her skin seeing the strange man coming at her with a gun. "W-Who s-sir?"

"Orochimaru! Where is he? Did you see him with a young girl with pink hair!?"

"N-N-No sir! Please I h-haven't seen him all day!"

He could tell she was afraid for her life, she was still very young herself meaning she hadn't been in the business long; she probably got hired after he left. But he didn't care, he was so angry right now that he was seeing red; he was surprised that he didn't already pull the trigger.

"She doesn't know Sasuke-kun, putting a gun to her head isn't going to make her learn where he is."

Sasuke turned hearing another voice in the hall. An older woman, one of the ones that wanted him to sleep with her the last time he was here, was standing in another door way across the hall; she clearly looked pissed, no doubt because her latest client ran out like the scared little rat he was when Sasuke first arrived. Her name still escaped his mind, but he pushed that aside for now.

"Do you know where Orochimaru is?" He tried to push down the fear that was racing through him, fear that he wouldn't find her in time... fear that Orochimaru would break her before he would get there.

"Hmmm... maybe I do, what's in it for me if I tell you?" She was teasing him, smiling coyly while twirling a piece of her long auburn hair between her freshly painted finger nails.

Sasuke didn't bite back his growl this time as he dropped the one girl to go after the other. He slammed her against the wall and put his gun to her head. "I'll spare your life... that's what you get, now tell me where he is!"

"That's not how it works Sasuke-kun! You can't kill me, I was the only one who saw where he dragged the girl to."

"You think I need you alive to find her?" he cocked the gun to prove he wasn't bluffing on his threat, "Your life means nothing to me, I've killed a lot of women just like you... what's one more?"

"Doesn't the girl's life mean something to you?" Sasuke's whole body stiffened, causing her to smile, "If you kill me... it may be too late to find the girl before lord Orochimaru has his way with her; you would not want that now would you?"

"The longer you speak the more time is wasted, not tell me where he is!"

"We haven't agreed to my end of deal Sasuke-kun," she slowly started running her hands up his shirt covered chest.

"What do you want?" He knew what her answer would be by the look she was giving him, she still wanted his body like every other woman he happened to come across; and a few months back he probably would have taken her right there. But he's changed, and the girl he was currently searching franticly for in this dump, was the reason for it. "Isn't that easy to figure out Sasuke-kun? I want you, I want to feel the same pleasure you gave Karin. I'm always pleasing those disgusting business men to pay my debt to Orochimaru, for once I want someone to be gentle and please me."

'Is she sure she's talking about me?' For a second there Sasuke was confused as to whom they were talking about, before quickly realizing that he didn't care. He was no where near gentle with any woman he had in bed, granted most of the brats he was sent to kill in the past two years liked it rough, he was mostly doing it to satisfy himself. Karin was always known for telling wild stories, she must have painted him as price charming when bragging to the other women in the house.

"Hn."

"Sasuke-kun?"

"... Fine, now tell me where he is."

A smile spread across her face, "He took her down to the basement about twenty minutes ago, be careful he knows you would be coming for her; I want you back in one piece," she tried to pull his body closer to hers, but Sasuke pushed her away only to stop and pull her closer again. This made her smile grow larger, thinking he was going to kiss her; however, that thought flew out of her mind when she felt a shooting pain go down her neck. "Sasuke-kun, what?"

"If you know how good I am then you should know how good I am at getting what I want. I get what I want from people not the other way around, be grantful I decided not to kill you." Sasuke had pinched the bundle of nerves in the back of the next that makes the body relax then blackout. He placed her inside of the room she had previously been in and then turned in search of the other girl he was harassing; he was pleased to see that she was no longer there, must have slipped past him when he was questioning the other. But he was fine with that, one less person to waste time on, as he turned back down the hall to make his way towards the kitchen and the only way to the basement.

It was dark and damp down there, Sasuke hadn't really set foot in it since before Kimimaro was killed. They used the place to train and for target practice. Part of the large room, that laid directly under the mansion, was turned into a lab by Kabuto; the man did some weird experiments on animals, and sometimes humans, that the world shouldn't know about. And the rest of the space remained a training area for the men that worked for Orochimaru to have hand-to-hand combat in... which obviously was lacking since Sasuke didn't even break a sweat when beating up the guards upstairs.

It smelled moldy and was obviously in disrepair as was the rest of the house, it was a wonder the whole place hadn't come down yet. Even though he didn't like the woman, Sasuke believed what she said about being careful, again he hadn't been in the basement for sometime so he didn't know what Orochimaru had planted down there and he wasn't about to get himself or worse Sakura killed by stepping on a trap.

When coming down the stairs there was a wall to the right, after that wall there was all opened area that was used as the fighting arena; Sasuke could use this to his advantage because he would be able to see Orochimaru before the snake saw him. He pressed his body against the wall, and as he slid closer to the edge he could hear people whispering.

"I don't understand why I was brought here, what ever you want I'm sure my father can get it for you." Sasuke was relieved to here his charge, she was crying he could tell, but as long as she was safe he could deal with it for now.

"Trust me my dear, what I want your father can not give... you however will do just fine." Orochimaru's voice caused Sasuke's anger to rise again at his implied comment.

"W-What could you possibly want from me? I don't even know you."

"I'm quiet hurt by your words Sakura-chan, your father never spoke of me... and here I thought we were great friends; how is your mother by the way, as beautiful as ever I presume."

"You know my mother?"

Sasuke was also curious about that question, whenever Orochimaru spoke of Jiraiya's head strong wife he always had a glint in his eye and a smirk on his face. And the way she practically spit out his name every time she was forced to speak it... something happened between the two.

"Yes, I know her quite well actually. Did you know that your mother and I were together before your father took her from me... that was so time ago."

'Uzumaki-sama and Orochimaru were together, that mustn't have been pleasant on her part; no wonder the look of hatred flashed across her face every time his name was brought up in conversation.'

Sakura was quiet for a minute, not sure how to go about this, truthfully talking of her parents' life before her brother and she were born made her very uncomfortable. She felt even more uneasy when the older man approached her prone on the moldy, old tatami mats that made up the floor. She was kneeling, with her hands tied behind her back, completely valnerable to the elements of both man and nature.

Orochimaru grabbed her chin and forced her to look up; then he tilted her head from side to side, getting a better look at her. "Yes, you look just like Tsunade when she was your age... you're beautiful; it would be a shame for something to happen."

"W-Why would something happen to me?"

"Have you not been watching the news for the past two years my angel? All of those girls deaths, you never thought you'd be the key to it all; the last piece of the puzzle, my ticket to ruling the entire underground. But now, seeing you, I've decided I want you alive... as my queen. I can't have your mother, but I know you'll satisfy me."

"You're sick! There's no way I'll be with you, you're old enough to be my father!" Sakura screamed, trying to free her hands from their bindings to slap him and try to get away.

"So I digust you is that it? Do you love him... Sasuke Uchiha?" he smirked seeing the look of pure shock on her face, and that small bit of hope flickered in her eye he loved.

"How... how do you know Sasuke-kun?"

Orochimaru gently tucks a loose strand of pink hair behind her ear, he just loved touching her soft, smooth skin; he wanted to be touching her when he told her, "I was the one that sent him."

Sakura's body stiffened and she stopped fighting his advances, "You... you sent him to us?" Sasuke could hear the fear in her voice, and even without seeing her face, he knew she was putting everything together in her head.

"Yes I did, he was sent under my orders to kill you so I could take over the council."

"The council... you mean as in the mob? Why would I have anything to do with them!? Those people are horrible monsters, feeding upon the poor innocent people of this city. I've seen enough damage from them, killing people, leaving children orphaned and marred for life! I would never be apart of that!" Sakura was shaking in furry, all she could picture was little Nichie and Koharu and all the torment they were dealing with in their lives.

Orochimaru roughly snatched up her chin again, forcing her to look at him, "You don't have a choice my angel... you were born into it."

"N-No you're lying!"

"You think your father is an honest business man? He is the leader, the night of banquet when I first saw you, he was looking to fill up the vaccant seats of the council."

"No daddy isn't like that, he wouldn't hurt children!"

"He didn't pull the trigger or tie the ropes, but he ordered and the signed the papers for every hit. Did you know your brother is also involved?"

"Shut up! Don't talk about Naruto like that, he would never!"

"You father has been training him since he was eighteen to take over his place."

"No!"

"This is the real world my angel, the world you were born into; however, if Sasuke did his job you wouldn't have had to find out, you would have died unaware."

"S-Sasuke... he was going to kill me?"

"He is an assassin, that is his job, but he disobeyed me because he fell in love. He betrayed me, and when he comes for you he will die," Orochimaru dropped her chin and took up the chair next to her.

"What makes you think he'll come? If he betrayed you he... "

"Oh don't sound so depressed my angel, he's a man, and I've taken something he sees as his... he'll come."

Note: Okay I changed my mind, there are like two chapters after this one, but still a sequel will come! Now Sakura knows about her family's involvement in the mob, and that Sasuke was suppose to kill her, how will she handle this? And what is Sasuke going to do now? Will he save her in time?
