As the morning wore on, the heat got worse and worse. Sheer, despite being carried was gleaming with sweat and could only imagine how the guys were coping with the smouldering heat whilst being forced to stumble along the rough floor.

She had tried to keep track of her steps yet due to the heat, her alongside the other jonin had lost their way.

By noon Iruka and Kakashi in front with the masked nin were exhausted and drew to a clearing of trees. It was a sure relief to be in the shade, thought Iruka, was he wiped away his sweat and observantly took note of his surroundings. Little did he know, Kakashi was too. The two made eye contact before looking away, confirming that they both despised one another yet were on the same page. They needed a way out.

The nin's all simultaneously performed a handsign which caused the ground ahead to shake and an entire section of it collapsed, revealing a staircase that led into the ground. As they were led down it, the lights glimmering either side of them caused their nerves to shake.

After what seemed like ten minutes, they finally reached a clearing. It had marble tiled floors and surprisingly modern decoration. It was somewhat like a hospital, with a foyer and chic, empty couches around a coffee table. At what seemed to be a reception desk, a lady with a blank expression stood. She seemed unreadable and stared right through the hostages as they walked out of the pristine underground foyer and through revolving doors.

Finally, Sheer was put down as the two men were untied. She ran to Celeste and wrapped her arms round her, pressing her younger sisters head against her chest. Now her kimono was really annoying her. It was not suitable for a kidnapping and she was not entirely sure she could make a prison break with a highly skilled veteran jonin, a decently talented chunin and a pre-genin with no real ninja skills who too was clothed in a kimono.

She immediately regretted her decision.

"You have to stay here and wait for further instructions." The nin who carried Celeste said, his deep voice causing Kakashi to eye him warily.

The four stood in a line in the room.

This room was almost identical to the foyer in which they had just been in but this lacked the furniture. All they could hear was the quiet playing of complimentary music around them and their eyes were filled with the four pristine white doors that lay ahead.

"Welcome all!" A male voice rung out, unnervingly soothing despite the previous conditions that they were faced with. THe second door on the right swung open, revealing a tall man with red hair and the prettiest of faces. He looked out of this world as though he was touched by an angel,an enlightened individual. His eyes were lined with long lashes and his brown eyes scanned over the rest of the people in the room, lingering on Celeste and then Sheer for a moment too long. He smiled as two men, bodyguards, revealed themselves from the darkness behind him.

He stepped up to Sheer, eyes looking right into hers as she tried to avoid eye contact.
"We'll be having none of that." He said ccheerfully, grabbing her cheeks and forcing her to look right into his eyes. He was meserized by the power that those eyes held yet he hasn't realized when his wish was to be fulfilled that the eyes would come along with possible concubine material.
"Ah look what we have here: a beautiful flower in bloom. Her eyes and body are ripe and ready for what the future holds."

The last part of his sentence caused the guys to shift uncomfortably as the man violated her personal space.

He circled her, his black cloack swishing against the floor. His eyes explored and Sheer squeezed her eyes shut, counting back in threes from three hundred.
"Hmmm there's much more use in her that I would have thought..."
297,294,291...

"ANd she's far too beautiful to be the status of a maid during her stay..."

285,282,279...

"I may call on her to attend to my, shall we say, personal needs..."
His fingers pressed against her bottom lip, his face far too close for comfort. She could feel his steamy breath against her neck and she used all her willpower to resist punching him.

All her years of ninja training and she was smart enough to know that if ever faced with a kkidnapping, at first , obey to kidnapper- they hold your life in their hands.

"You girls, follow me." He started , removing himself from Sheer and gesturing towards the door he came from.

"Guards, take these men to their rooms."

Sheer was relieved that they'd at least get rooms, suggesting they weren't necessarily prisoners but she was still confused. Why did they want our eyes? Why aren't we being treated as prisoners ? What is he planning on doing to us?
Sheer and Iruka held eye contact as they were separated. The farthest door on the left...

She took a mental note of tthe path they took as she followed the elegant man who constantly looked back and smiled at her.
He led her down several well lit and fancily decorated halls lined with paintings. Celeste was holding on tightly to the hand of her elder sister, sucking her thumb. Old habits die hard.

"Young one, what is your name?" He said, pausing at a grand door lined with a golden flowery ffame.

She looked at the floor whilst mumbling her name yet he wasn't bothered. He simply smiled, pushing the door open and revealing a room fit for a princess. The two gaped in awe at the queen sized four poster bed and all the decor in the room. It was like out of a dream, a hidden palace waiting for the two.

Sheer forced herself to snap out if her trance. They want our eyes. These gifts must have a reason...
She forced her eyes away from Celeste who had run and collapsed onto the bed and she was immediately met by the intense gaze of the red head. His eyes stared right into hers and she felt his warm palm grab hers and tug her further down the hall.

"I wasnt expecting someone so beAutiful and so close in age to me. I was expecting two idiotic brats."

His words didnt comoft her. If anything,they added to her sense of dread as he pulled her towards a door like the one before.

"But before I can tell you why we need your eyes, we might as well as time alone together."
He had winked as he pulled her into a room that was almost identical to the one before , yet this one had a king size mattress and the decor was fit for a king. Along one whole walll was a giant painting depicting the Otsutsuki family. She then remembered something that Kakashi had said, something about the Tenseigan belonging to them. Nervously she gulped, watching him pull her towards the bed.
"Y-youre an Otsutsuki?"
He stopped , sming unnervingly at her at the aide of his bed.
"No my darling. But you are."
His hand pulled her face towards his and she resisted, causing him to frown slightly.

"II'm Sasori. And it's not wise for a little girl like yoy to resist what I offer to you."

He said it cheerfully enough but his undertones suggested something far,far darker.

She felt her world clouding over as he attempted to soothe her, placing his hands in spots that made her uncomfy.

Rule number #73 of being a kunoichi, if faced in such a ssituation, its advised to go along with it until he's vulnerable.

His fruitless attempt to get her to relax failed and she could tell her unresponsive attitude had insulted him. But his frown was quickly replaced by a smile.

"We have all the time in the world. You are dismissed but I shall ccall on you tomorrow at the same time."

She scrambled off his bed and out of his room, desperate to evade him and find the guys who would've probably devised a plan by now.

She retraced her steps and after endless wandering down the winding , identical hallways she found herself at a series of normal doors.
They seemed almost like maids quarters compared to the luxury she was just exposed to.
She focussed her eyes on the first door she came across.

If these eyes are rumoured to be that powerful they mustn't let me down now...
Her eyes stung for a moment before surpassing the door and she could see blurry figures inside each room. Second ddoor on the right. A man with a ponytail sat with his head in his hands.

She ran to the door and pressed it open ggently, causing the man to look up in surprise.

Iruka.

She was overjoyed to see the man and within an imstaant, she was held firmly in his arms. She then noticed that he lacked a shirt and blushed at his well taken care of figure. He had a large bandage wrapped around his uller arm and part of his chest. His ponytail was coming loose but he was still stunning in her eyes.

"Iruka this is bad. This is really bad."
Iruka looked down at her,hand stroking her ccheeks. He remained silent as he held her before they sat at his bed.

"Why've they taken you here while Celeste and I are being treated like queens?" Sheer was boiling with anger at the uunfairness. Iruka didn't even have to charge after her yet he was being treated like trash.

"I don't mind so long as we can figure out how too get you home safely. And I'm more worried about you... Is everything okay?"

Sheer thought back to the pretty Sasori and the things he had tried to do to her behind shut doors.

She shook her head, covering her face in embarrassment.
"Sasori..."

"Who's Sasori?"

"That man with the hair. He...He took me to his room. And be tried-oh gosh I can't."

Sheer's tears began to fall and Iruka pulled her closer.
"Has he touched you in a way you didn't like?"

She nodded into his chestchest continuously whilst he patted her back kindly.

"Please ... What else is he planning on doing...?" Iruka struggled to let out, struggling with the though that her innocence would probably have to be ssacrificed to a stranger rather than him, which he'd hoped for eventually.

"He wants to sleep with me. He said he'd call for me tomorrow at tthe same time and goodness knows what will happen to Celeste- she's still a child!"
Iruka looked at her, lifting her chin so she looked at him. Their eyes looked for a moment before they kissed. This silenced her tears and he held her close afterwards, stroking her back and wandering how the hell they were going to escape this place.
