~March 13, 6:00 am~
Naruto: Should we even go to school?
Sasuke: "Do what you want, I'm not going." He said as he unlocked their front door.
Naruto: …What else can we do…?
Sasuke: I don't know anymore.
Naruto: I'm not going to give up believe it!
Sasuke: Shut up dobe. What in the hell can we do?! We have no leads, nothing!
Naruto: When has that ever stopped us?
Sasuke: Now.
Naruto: What about the time when we caught the Blue Lake serial killer?
Sasuke: That was different. He wasn't anything like these guys. The Akatsuki are professional assassins! How in the hell could we stop this?
Naruto: Then we'll just have to try harder now wont we?!
Sasuke: …Naruto?
Naruto: Huh?
Sasuke: "Thanks." He whispers softly as he left up the stairs and into his bedroom.
Sasuke: Mom, is this the right thing? The pain she has for her family is the pain I have for you and father. And yet, I'm cold. I'm cold to her and her ways. I guess it can't hurt to try to be a little nicer…if I just get the chance.
Talking off his shirt he lies down on this bed and his mind began to wonder. To think of everything else that has never gone wrong that should have. Trying everything he could do to get Sakura off of his mind, all pointless. He could once again feel the sensation of her lips, the smell of cherries engulfs him.
Sasuke Thinking: Her lips, so soft. Her eyes full of joy and comfort. And her body, so full of passion. The touch of her wholehearted skin wrapped around my chilled body. To be able to steal my breath so quickly is mysterious. Nevertheless, the feeling is nothing. It will pass with time. We'll find her safe and it will be gone.
RING RING!
RING RING!
Sasuke: "Huh?" A muffled sound came throw the other line.
Kurenai: Sasuke? We got a hit on your kidnappers.
Sasuke: "You did?!" He said jolting up in his bed in surprise.
Kurenai: Yes! Last known location was 140 Longitude and 37 latitude. It's a place called Shougo Hut.
Sasuke: Thank you Kurenai.
Kurenai: Sasuke!
Sasuke: Hn?
Kurenai: Do you need backup?
Sasuke: No, Naruto and I can handle this on our own.
Kurenai: It's going to be dangerous.
Sasuke: I know, but what kind of men are we if we can't even fix what we did wrong?
Kurenai: This is no time for seeing how much of 'man' you are! You could die going in there; it's more than some silly little a pride challenge! There are three lives at sake!
Sasuke: Three?
Kurenai: You, Naruto and Sakura.
Sasuke: …
Kurenai: Something tells me that she's not dead Sasuke.
Sasuke: Even if she isn't, what else could happen?!
Kurenai: Isn't that your job?
Sasuke: …
Kurenai: I won't call you in backup. But please, call me when you find something. I read over this girls file, she needs to live.
Sasuke: Yeah…
Kurenai: Call me if there is anymore that I can do for you. And Sasuke?
Sasuke: Hn?
Kurenai: Good luck and stay safe.
Sasuke: "Thank you." The phone call ended in a 'click'.
Leaping off his black covered bed she grabbed his shirt and flew down the steps to the kitchen where Naruto was eating. Standing in the doorway he looked as if he had just seen a ghost.
Sasuke: Naruto!
Naruto: "Huh?!" He exclaimed with a mouth full of ramen noodles.
Sasuke: I know where Sakura is!
Naruto: Huh? You do?! Where?
Sasuke: 140 Longitude and 37 latitude a place called Shougo Hut.
Naruto: Where did you get that?
Sasuke: Kurenai.
Naruto: Really?
Sasuke: Yes! Now move your ass and get your gear on.
Racing, the two boys put on their black pants and tied up their ankle high boots. Throwing on their black shirts and a protective layer if bulletproof padding they tucked it in. Pulling his black traction gloves from his drawer Sasuke slipped them on ready to get going. Noticing there was a whole had just left his mind. Loading their weapons, Sasuke and Naruto rumbled down the two flights of stairs like a stampede of wild ox. Running to the car, Sasuke opened the door and the two boys sped off. Weaving in and out of traffic like it was never there.
Sasuke: Punch in the coordinates in the GPS.
Naruto: Got it.
Taking a right and a few lefts they came into a darkened alleyway. The GPS placed on the dashboard began to blink and saying 'you have arrived to your destination.' They pulled out of sight, and parked the car behind a pile of old wooden boxes.
~May 13, 8:00 am~
Naruto: Wow, this is something that you'd only see in movies.
Sasuke: Shut up you baka, we need a plan.
Naruto: Let's go in and kick their ass! Believe it!
Sasuke: Why are you so simple minded?! Do you want to get killed?!
Naruto: No! I'm still a virgin! I have plenty of things I want to do before I die!
Sasuke: "…Good to know…" He could feel a sweat drop run off the back of his head.
Naruto: Well what about you?
Sasuke: Now's not the time idiot! Get focused and pay attention.
Naruto: …
Sasuke: You'll take the rear entrance and I'll take up front.
Naruto: That's hardly a plan…
Sasuke: Do you have anything better?!
Naruto: No…
Sasuke: Then shut up dobe.
Sneaking from the car doors Sasuke took himself to the front door while Naruto entered through the back. Holding his handgun into position Sasuke slightly opened the door into the old and rusty abandoned building. It was dark and musky, the smell of mold became overwhelming. Picking off a dark colored rag from his belt Sasuke placed it over his mouth while he crept room to room.
Coming to a door with a dimmed light appearing from the bottom, Sasuke put his gun into position again and began to open the heavy metal door. Creaking open he saw that it looked like a bedroom. All of a sudden a female voice sprang from the room in terror.
Sakura: Stay out!
Sasuke: …
Sakura: Whoever it is this time! Stay away from me! Please!
A tear ran down her soft and pale cheek as Sasuke slipped into the room. The pink haired beauty lied on the bed, hands bound to the headboard and feet chained to the bottom. A blindfold sheltered her eyes from whoever came in. Struggle marks covered her arms and legs. He skirt was ripped and the missing buttons from her blouse were scattered across the cold floor.
Sakura: Don't touch me!
Sasuke: Sakura…
Sakura: No please!
Sasuke: "Sakura!" He said as he ripped the blindfold from her face.
Sakura: No plea-…S-Sasuke?!
Sasuke: Sakura, a-are you…
Sakura: W-Why are you h-here Sasuke?
Sasuke: "The explanations can wait for another time." He said as he pulled apart the rope that covered her hands and feet.
Tears trundled out her jade eyes as she embraced the young Uchiha. Gathering her up bridal style he gave her his jacket to cover up her half shown body. It was cold and chilled; she tightened her body with every move he made. She was in pain.
Sasuke: Sakura?
Sakura: What?
Sasuke: What did they do to you?
Sakura: N-Nothing.
BANG!
A loud gunfire was set off in front of them while the lights came on. The room was filled with chains and boxes. Cockroaches and rats scurried off to their living space to shield themselves from the light and flamboyant sound. A blonde man stood in their way, his pistol raised in the air with a thin gleam of smoke raised from its barrel.
Deidara: Where do you think you're going with my toy, un?
Sasuke: Toy?!
Deidara: That look in your eye proves it, you're the other Uchiha.
Sasuke: Other, I'm the only true Uchiha!
Deidara: By the tone of your voice, I say you and Itachi don't talk much, un?
Sakura Thinking: Itachi?
Sasuke: Got that right, that bastard can go burn in hell along with the rest of you.
Deidara: Don't say things like that before you die kid.
Sasuke: Hmph, I don't see someone that would kill me.
Deidara: "You may be good but you're not good enough, un?!" He raised his gun again. "You're like your brother, going to be cocky till death!" He yelled with a rough voice as another bullet launched from his gun barrel.
Sasuke: "Bastard!" He said as he took cover behind some boxes to his right. "Sakura…"
Sakura: H-Huh?
Sasuke: Stay here…
Sakura: What?! Tell me what the hell is going on!
Sasuke: Now's not the time, just stay here and don't move.
Sakura: O-Okay.
Sasuke: Naruto should be here in a second to get you out.
Sakura: No he won't.
Sasuke: Hn? What do you mean?
Sakura: If Deidara's here, then Sasori will be with Naruto.
Sasuke: Is that the freak who carves humans?
Sakura: "…" She said nothing as she tightened her grip upon his muscular arms.
Sasuke: Don't worry, Naruto may be a baka but he knows what he's doing. You just stay here and remain safe. I'll be back to take you out of here in no time.
Sakura: O-Okay…
Sasuke: "Alright you freak!" He said as he stood up and walked in the open. "You want a fight? I'll give you one!"
Deidara: A little cocky, un?
Sasuke: Heh, so how do you want to do this thing?
Deidara: "Another time Uchiha, and soon," He said as he shot a round at him and ran off through the open door.
Sasuke: "Shit!" He said as he took after them.
Sasuke Thinking: He got away! Why in the hell did he just retreat like he did?! …Sakura!
Sasuke: Sakura?! Sakura?!
Sakura: I-I'm right here…
Sasuke: "Come on, let's get you out of here." He picked her up and carried her to the back of his car.
Naruto: Hey Sasuke!
Sasuke: Huh?
Naruto: They got away.
Sasuke: I know…
Naruto: Sakura?! You found her!
Sasuke: Hurry up and get your ass in the back seat with her.
Speeding back to their house with Sakura in the back seat they wanted some new answers from her, and fast. With a stern voice Sasuke began to interrogate the broken cherry blossom for the information that they wanted so badly that they could taste it.
Sasuke: Who else did you see when you were there?
Sakura: I don't know.
Sasuke: Any names or faces?
Sakura: I-I don't know.
Sasuke: Do you know anything?!
Sakura: No! I don't! They kept me locked in that room the whole time!
Naruto: "Sakura." He said in a calmer voice.
Sakura: Huh?
Naruto: We need you to think really hard about anyone else that could have been at that building with you and the two kidnappers.
Sakura: I don't know…But why were you two there? What the hell is going on?!
Taking in a deep breath Sasuke and Naruto looked at each other in tiredness. They could not give up their identities of high school student from anyone. But they automatically knew what they had to do for Sakura at this time.
