Itachi had been traveling for almost a full day now. The girl was bound to wake up anytime now. He needed to find somewhere to stop before that happened. Somewhere quiet and away from where her screams might reach the unaware. He found a cave in the forest he was in, they were on their way to reach Ame but they still had about 3 days travel if he was fast. He might have to keep her in a genjutsu most of the way if she did not cooperate. He would make sure she did though regardless. She was his to control. He would make sure she followed every command he gave her. She wouldn't like what would happen if she did not. He took a sharp left to the bottom of the cliff side he was near and moved the vines covering the narrow cave. He could see it had the necessary space for them to stay for the rest of the night. He wouldn't be able to sleep with what had transpired just yesterday. The more he thought about it he found himself clutching harder to the tiny girl in his arms. She was warm and soft to his hands. Unfortunately he has not stopped to wash the blood off of his hands and clothes and hoped there was a spring near by. The girl would also need to be washed as he smeared blood all over her innocent pajamas she had been wearing when he took her. Once inside the cave her kicked away any stones and sticks around the center and set the girl down. He then took some sticks and rocks and built a fire with a gentle fireball jutsu. He sat and rested by it for a second thinking about what he has done. His anger started to rise when he thought about his clan and how they were gone now. His parents were dead, his brother a witness. He felt like there was nothing to keep him sane anymore. The people who ordered this had no idea what they created. A monster with no qualms about killing without a second thought.

Sakura felt like she had been hit with a rock to her skull. The pain inside her head was none like she ever felt. It was fast dissipating though and replaced with terror when she felt like she wasn't at home in her bed. The ground was cold and hard. She felt the dirt between her fingers as she was slowly able to get them to move. She made a noise of discomfort and froze. She heard someone move and footsteps approaching to she kept her eyes closed and pretended to still be sleeping. Her body was tense and she felt like a rabbit about to spring. The footsteps stopped right in front of her body. She needed to make a run for it, she didn't want to be murdered here, wherever she was she didn't know. The moment she tensed about to get the hell out of wherever it was she was at she heard it.

"Don't move."

She was hyperventilating when he kneeled down next to her and grabbed her silky long pink hair to raise her head as she kept her eyes shut as hard as she could. The pain in her scalp burned.

"open your eyes, I know you have awoken."

Slowly she peeked her eyes open to see who had her in their grasp. She was surprised to see Sasuke's older brother Itachi and she was horrified with the blood on his clothes and the look in his eyes. They were burning red and looked so dead but fixated on her. He pulled her closer to him to look at her face. She was beautiful. Like a little cherry blossom fairy that he has caught. He lifted his hand to stroke her face. The panic on it was palpable which was understanding of the situation.

"It-it-itachi? Whe-where am I?"

He looked at her for a moment before he decided to answer. He realized she knew who he was and recognized her voice. He had heard her chasing his brother around when he was around a corner but he did not know her name.

"It doesn't matter. I have taken you a long way from home and a long way from Konoha and you are not going back. You will follow all of my commands from here on out and if you scream I will be forced to place you in a genjutsu the rest of the way we are going. Do you understand?"

She wanted to scream but her voice was stuck in her throat. The commanding tone in his voice was a threat and she knew it. She was suddenly pushed down onto her back as he put himself above her and straddled her torso. She started to fight him to get him off but he grabbed both her arms and placed them above her head with one hand as his other started to lift the bottom of her purple top. It was pulled up past her chest and she was completely exposed to his eyes. He had no expression in his eyes as he did this and she was trying to thrash him off with no luck, but she was afraid to scream from his earlier threat. Her nipples perked from the cold air in the cave they were in. She didn't understand what he was doing, but she felt like this was wrong. Itachi's free hand fell flat on her stomach and he smoothed it up her torso to the middle of her undeveloped chest. He was young himself and had never done such a thing to any female before, but he needed to do a jutsu he learned from one of the countless Uchiha scrolls his father made him study. He was curious of this female's body and she was his to do what he wished with. He moved his hand to the left over the perked bud and felt the hardness. He did it with the right next. Slowly squeezing. He brought his head down and licked it. The girl squirmed but stayed still at this point, knowing trying to escape was useless due to his strength. He moved his face closer to hers so he could look straight into her eyes.

"Do not move as I do this, you will feel pain from what I am about to do."

She bit her lip until she was bleeding from how scared she was. She didn't know what he was going to do but as his hand came down and grasped the waistband of her shorts and started pulling she started to whimper. He pulled them off until she was completely exposed to him. He took one of her knees and pulled it open to the side of his leg that wasn't inbetween her thighs. She was clenching them closed but he was able to keep her legs open enough to do the jutsu. He could see the hairless treasure of his and tied her hands above her head with a kunai stuck in the ground hard to make his hands mostly free. Putting his hand on her hip he caressed down to where he needed to be. Running a finger up her slit to feel how she felt. He then put a finger near her opening and slowly stuck it inside the tight opening. He knew this would hurt her but he needed to bind her to him. The jutsu was one for a man to have complete control over a woman. He would be able to sense her location and make her do commands that she can not fight. Complete control is what this jutsu is for. Uchiha did this for marriages and knew his father had done this to his mother when they were betrothed. A tradition of sorts. Quickly making the necessary hand signs he placed his finger back to her opening and without hesitating harshly pushed it inside. She screamed but he would let this one slide, Nobody could hear over the sound barrier he placed the moment they entered the cave. Holding his finger inside he pulled his thumb over the top of her clitoris and circled 3 times and pressed hard until a black design appeared on top of her stomach where her cervix is located forming a complex circle with lines like vines and spikes circling each other. They bled red for a second then disappeared. Sakura had lost consciousness the moment he penetrated her hymen. He pulled his finger out and pulled her clothes back on. The jutsu was successful. He had never done it before but Itachi wasn't a prodigy for nothing.

Now he needed to wash off the old and now new blood staining him. He felt calm and knew he needed her even more. Just the though of leaving her for the creek he needed to find made him feel unstable. He would do it fast and return. Leaving her next to the fire he gathered his things and headed out, but not before using a justu to hide the cave. She was his now forever. Performing a bonding jutsu like that was permanent. He needed to train her now. She would fight it but he would teach her to obey. She would learn her place in his life. Not realizing that she was going to be his sanity, she slept with tears on her face in the cave. Not realizing she was prey. His prey. Tomorrow they set off again on their way to Ame. Now he had to think about the Akatsuki and how he was going to explain the girl. Regardless, she was his pet and they would not be able to deny his companion, he would make sure of that.
