Chapter 2: Forget me not

In the past~

Tsunade shakes her head and smiles.

"Good, you should be ready then. Naruto? You'll be taking the test too I assume?" Tsunade questions him.

'Finally answers!' Naruto mentally cheers.

"What test?"

Tsunade laughs.

"Why the Anbu exams of course."

'Oh'

Part 1: The Anbu Exams

"WHAT!" Naruto screams.

'I knew he'd act this way' I think bitterly.

"B-but Sakura -Chan isn't even a chunin or jounin yet…right? How can she already be taking the exams? It's too early for her!" Naruto argues.

I scowl at him and continue to sweep the broken empty sake bottle from Tsunade's desk and floor. He was underestimating me again. They all were. Tsunade obviously was thinking along the same lines for she just sighs and puts her head in her hands. Even intoxicated she could still think properly.

"Naruto. Whether you like it or not, I'm continuing with the plan for Sasuke. For that to happen you have to be a jounin at lowest and Anbu at best. I have included Sakura into the recovery team because I have trained her for four years and have deemed her worthy. If you have any objections, please say so. Your ninja license isn't that important right?" Tsunade finishes sweetly.

Naruto sheepishly scratches his head and gulps. I sigh and prop myself up on Tsunade's desk rather rudely.

"Listen Naruto. Like I said before, things have changed. I'm not the same person. I am but I'm just….better? I'm taking these exams whether you approve or not." I was being harsh to him but I still had a tender spot for all the times he had protected me and I had sat there helplessly and cried. The anger was misplaced but I didn't care at that moment.

Naruto immediately sobered up and gazed at me sadly. A twinge of guilt passed through me but I shrugged it off and got up from my desk to fidget with Tsunade's paperwork some more.

"When are the exams then?" Naruto asks.

Tsunade's fidgets as if she hasn't heard and I crane my head to understand her incoherent mumbles. Tsunade nervously downs another shot of sake before belching and breaking into a devious grin.

"Tomorrow!"

I instantly Zero in on Naruto's face. He is frozen solid. A small trickle of sweat rolls from his brow and I uncharacteristically knock him over with one finger, experimentally of course.

"Wah! Sakura-Chan what'd you do that for!" Naruto wines whilst rubbing his sore head.

I shake my head, flabbergasted and cross my arms, playing bored.

Tsunade pounds her fists on her desk childishly attempting to shut Naruto up.

"Shut up you Baka! I'm your superior show some respect! You'll report today at training ground 7 and reunite team seven, erm minus Sasuke of course. There will be a replacement for him so don't worry. Now beat it! Sakura you stay!" Tsunade barks.

Naruto stalks out sulking and turns towards me with a thumbs up and shouts.

"Sakura-chan! After training lets meet at Ichiraku's with the new member like old times! My treat! I wan to catch up with everyone, dattebyo!" With that Naruto's orange and black jumpsuit disappears along with him and I let out a heavy sigh.

Tsunade criss crosses her fingers together and tells me to have a seat. I plop heavily into the overstuffed chair for clients and stare straight at her. I even shrug out of my pack for added effect that I was comfy. Tsunade smirks cattily and hand me a cup of sake. I stare at the cup bemused and shrug "what the hell' and down it in one go. It burns my throat while going down and I choke on the sensation.

"AHAHHAHAHA! Too strong for ya? Never quite got into the taste myself but it numbs more than anything."

I choke some more and look up at Tsunade with tears in my eyes.

"So…S-so what did you want me for? My mission report? I already turned it in to the front desk. Or did you want an oral report?

(Don't think dirty)

"No No. I just wanted to ask you how your training was. I want more details than 'it went well, I'm a lot stronger' yadda yadda." Tsunade mimics. I giggle but them sober at the serious subject.

"As I said before. It went well. Jinko-sensei was a big help with my taijutsu and ninjutsu. She taught me a lot of jutsu. I'm confident that I will pass the Anbu test Lady Tsunade." I didn't actually elaborate on the training which I knew made Tsunade bananas. She would just have to wait and see for herself.

"Aww Sakura can't you at least tell me how tough her training regime was? I'm soooo curious." Tsunade pouts.

I instantly become serious. "No offense Tsunade-shishou. Your training was hell I have to admit but Jinko's was hell on earth, night and day." I reply cryptically.

Tsunade gives me one last glance before dismissing me.

I head to my apartment first. My apartment was small, nothing extravagant and also very dusty at the moment. I scowl in irritation at Ino's supposed maintenance and note that the garden and floral arrangements around the house were perfect. My apartment consisted of a small kitchen that opened into the living room, a master bedroom, two half baths, and a guest room and my study. Simple and homey.

Unpacking my backpack was easier said than done. It was a traditional pack, not too big but not too small either. The scrolls were the problem. I sealed everything. From my food to my socks. It saved space and was convenient. I could pack extra weapons and not even feel the extra weight, I thanked kami for Jinko-sensei fro teaching me the basics of sealing, and they were a lifesaver. No the scrolls weren't entirely the problem really, it was unsealing them and having your entire room bombarded with hundreds of stinky clothes, shuriken, senbon and every other kind of nindo weapon possible. Jinko had given me a parting gift and I thanked her silently and sarcastically again for putting into the double edged axe that nearly impaled me.

'I guess I'd better head over to the training field'

The problem with going was I hadn't seen everyone is forever. I didn't even want to look Kakashi in the face(mask) anymore. And this mysterious new teammate put me on edge. I didn't like the though of anyone replacing Sasuke. Whether he be a jerk or not.

I finally reach the familiar grounds and flinch when a poof resounds somewhere behind me. I expect Kakashi but the boy that greets me isn't him. I shouldn't even say greet, it was more like attacked me with an ink monster. My ninja sense quickly take over and I kick the boys summon in the air and slash it into a spray of ink which causes an opening and I take it.

The kunai at my neck doesn't even register before I'm throwing him over my shoulder and rendering him unconscious. I hear clapping behind me and tense. I get off the unconscious ninja gracefully and face my audience. Or rather audience of one.

Kakashi Hatake was an oddity. No he didn't have any deformities…that I knew of at least, he was just not like other ninja. Sort of like Naruto but less goofy. He dind't take things serious enough, which would be your undoing if you tried to catch him off guard. He wielded the Sharingan that although wasn't his originally, could be used expertly by him nonetheless. He was known as the Copy nin. He had to be at least in his thirties by now, gray silver hair and a mask always covering his face. One could only help but to ponder at what it hid. His famous Icha Icha paradise was gone form his hands though. '

'Hmm he's up to something.'

"Hello Kakashi." I state indifferently, the absence of 'sensei' not missed by him.

Kakashi gives me a sad look with his lone eye before it trails down to the nin I had knocked out.

"You've improved greatly Sakura. Tsunade has done what I could not." He says sadly.

There goes that guilt trip again. No way was I taking that fish line and sinker again. I didn't need to feel guilty for something that wasn't my fault.

"Ah! Kakashi-sensei! Sakura-Chan! Sorry I'm late! I was caught up at Ichiraku's. I saw Hinata, Kiba and Shino there too! Man everyone's grown up now!" Naruto replies chipper as usual obviously not sensing the awkward tense silence.

Naruto glances between mine and Kakashi's face and then at the unconscious boy, My face, Kakashi, conscious boy. Click, light bulb goes off.

"GAH! Sakura-Chan, Kakashi-sensei who's that on the ground, and why is Sakura's foot on his back like that?"

I hesitantly remove my foot from his back, embarrassed, and shrug. A groan is heard from underneath me and I jump back from the now moving body.

The pasty skinned boy with black hair rubs his head and with quick reflexes jumps up and away form the three very capable ninja. He looks lost for a minute before he attempts to remove a scroll from his pouch but not before Naruto tackles him shouting." Its an enemy nin, AMBUSH! Get him! He's gonna summon a horde of ninja from that scroll!"

I sweat drop and quickly grab Naruto's collar and haul him off the blank faced boy. There was something wrong with him that was certain. He was either a really good Sasuke stunt double or slightly retarded.

"Get off him Naruto! He's probably that stand in for Team 7 Tsunade sent! BAKA!" I say slapping him upside the head. Naruto pouts before he gives the boy a analyzing stare and accesses him form every angle.

Naruto scoffs. "Sasuke was better at being a dick than you."

I smack him and then extend my hand to the newcomer nicely. Inside I was boiling. I didn't want another Sasuke, one heartache was enough.

"Welcome to Team 7, I'm Sakura Haruno." The stranger looks at my hand and then my face with a blank stare and then his eyes light a little before dulling again as he plasters a fake smile on.

"My name is Sai. I will be the traitors stand in, Nice to meet you Ugly." Sai says and takes my hand softy. My brains goes on overload and before I can think through my next moves like any other capable kunoichi would do in my situation and I clench Sai's hand without Sakura and flip him over my back.

"Nice to meet you too." I sneer in his face. I dust my hands off and go over to a near by tree and kick it. It shivers and I slump down into a crouch, plucking the grass childishly. So much for coming off as strong and cool.

"Okay now that we have…erm…some what introduced ourselves I would like to do a little exercise to celebrate our reunion." Kakashi says even as he is holding up three bells. I smirk and Naruto does a fist pump. Sai has a lost look on his face and I feel a stab of pity for him before it's gone and the words 'Ugly' are repeating in my head over and over again.

I stand up as Kakashi places a metal clock on a tree stump that brings back fond yet painful memories. I can see Naruto is suffering form the same vertigo and I clench my fists, getting psyched up for the match. I had to pace myself. I couldn't let them bring out anything…that wasn't over the top. I needed to keep the few tricks I had up my sleeve to stay there until the Anbu exams.

"Now when I say start, you will come at me with everything you have and attempt to take these bells from me. If you fail to do so then….I might have to fail all of you back to the academy for good." Kakashi says blandly. I sigh, Naruto shivers and Sai just looks bored. What a pair we turned out to be.

Once Kakashi presser the timer to start Naruto is gone in a flash and I groan. Maybe I was wrong and he really hadn't grown out of his ole knucklehead ways?

I see Naruto makes hand signs up in the air and I almost face palm when I recognize his signature justu.

'Doesn't he realize that mere shadow clones won't help him against a jounin of Kakashi's caliber' I think even as I watch seven clones appear out of thin air. Kakashi throws a kunai straight at Naruto's heart and one of his shadow clones pulls him out of the way.

"Hmm affective I guess…'

"Dickless is outclassed." Sai murmurs as if lost in thought. I send a glare his way and can't help to mentally agree with him as I see Naruto pinned like old times.

"You're always rushing forward. But…. you have grown Naruto. Still you failed to notice that I haven't even said start yet." Kakashi drawls. I gasp and Kakashi disappears in his trademark poof. Naruto stands dazed, looking up, left, right.

I grin and step up pulling on my leather gloves.

'My turn'

Up.

Left.

Right.

'Hn, only one place now.' And with that I rear back and split the ground in half. A dazed looking Kakashi appears beneath the rubble and I smirk.

"Found you Kaka-sensei!" I cue.

'What the-? I'd better stop messing around with Sakura-Chan or one day I'm gonna get myself killed' Naruto thought gulping.

"Oi Kakashi-sensei! How are we supposed to work together with HIM(points towards Sai) if we don't even now him or his moves?"

Kakashi is struggling to get out of the fissure Sakura had made and just shrugs at Naruto's question.

"Teamwork." He simply states and then he's gone in a puff of smoke.

'Easier said than done' Sakura and Naruto think in unison. Who knows what Sai's thinking.

"Okay, Naruto…Sai? I have a plan. Sai your good with ink right….?(a nod from Sai) Naruto will be your back up…so this is what were gonna do…"

Thirty minutes later Kakashi has his Icha Icha Paradise out and giggling over it.

' I wonder when they'll attack' He thought vaguely, he perverted thoughts started to take over. He wore the mask for a reason you know. To hide the nosebleeds of course.

Somewhere in heaven kami is sweat dropping

"Naruto are you ready yet?" Sakura whispers from behind Naruto. He nods and Sai swoops in on one of his ink birds. Once he lands it dissipates.

"All right. Naruto I need you to make a Sai clone and a clone for me. The objective is stealth."

Sakura throws a kunai out into the opening where Kakashi is resting, as expected he dodges, book still ever present in his hand. A small smirk graces my lips and Kakashi's eyes widen and his head whips to where my kunai went.

"H-how did you set up traps while I was here?" Kakashi murmurs.

My eyes narrow and I give Naruto the signal and two of his clones attack Kakashi from behind. The clone poofs when Naruto slashes at it and I confirm my suspicions.

"Sai NOW!" I scream somewhere above me.

Kakashi-sensei was located in a tree looking forlornly down at his precious book.

"Look's like I won't be able to read this…." A few trees tremble to his right and he quickly puts his beloved (the book) away in his kunai pouch.

Kakashi drops from the tree he was nestled in only to see several trees fall around him with the trembling earth.

'Why did Tsunade train her again?'

Sakura comes crashing through some trees looking ravenous. With speed he didn't even know she had she charged him, her green glowing fists coming a mere inch from his 'sensitive' area.

'That would have killed me.'

"Kakashi-sensei, I need one of those bells. I'm going to be taking the Anbu exams tomorrow and I won't let anyone get in my way." Sakura whispers fiercely, cracking her knuckles.

Before Kakashi can dodge Sakura pounces on him, her fingers lightly brushing one of the bells.

'Wait a minute…this doesn't seem real?...!'

"Sharingan!"

Kakashi blinks his eyes open and stares up at his two students plus Sai. Each had a shiny bell in there hands and Sakura was grinning wickedly.

"You totally fell for it Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto guffaws. Sai puts pn his fake smile and Sakura crosses her arms cockily.

Kakashi puts his hands up in defeat.

"I admit you guys you got me but how?"

"Well that's easy. First I made Sai track you, then I made Naruto make a clone for each of us to distract you, putting each of our won chakra signature on them you were none the wiser. Then I genjutsued you into thinking you were reading your precious book, well you know the rest I presume?"

'hmm so the teacher fell for the students tricks huh?"'

" I guess I have to pass you all. And Sai? Welcome to Team 7, I hope you are loyal to Konoha. I don't need to tell you the consequences if you aren't right?"

It was early in the morning when I woke up. In my own bed, in my apartment. It felt good to be home. It felt even better to not be helpless.

I dressed in a different outfit than I normally do. It was all black except the wrappings were blood red. A black medical skirt, white spandex and a black vest with my clan symbol in a heavy contrast to the black. I quickly slip metal plates into my wrapped knuckles and tie my hair up into a high ponytail. I strap a windmill shuriken to my back and seal some other weapons in some scrolls, including my double edged battle axe. I look into my mirror and gaze upon my transformation, gone were the wide doe like eyes that now were sharp and seductive at the same time. My forehead hadn't gotten any smaller but it added to my charm I guess. My hair was long again but not in a vain way. It was just easier to pull back into a ponytail and out of my face. I retie my leaf headband on my four head and pull it tight.

I was ready for the Anbu exams. I took a relaxing pace whilst going to pick Naruto up, kami knows he wouldn't wake up this early by himself. It was only 6 in the morning but the streets and marketplaces were still bustling.

I finally arrived at Naruto's run down apartment. It wasn't run down because of its age or anything, No, Naruto didn't pick up anything. Trash bag after trash bag full of empty ramen cups filled the main front of the house.

I sigh even as I jump up into Naruto's second story open window. Ninja never used the door. Inside Naruto's room is worse than the downstairs. More cups of ramen empty and full alike are strewn everywhere, shocker.

"Naruto! Wake the hell up! Unless you wanna fail the exam, get your ass out of bed!" I pounce on his bed and Naruto springs up a kunai in hand. Hmmm at least his ninja senses haven't failed him…yet.

"Wha!" Naruto says looking dazed, a dribble of drool on his chin.

"Come on Baka! The exams start in like….an hour. The whole village is gonna be there. So get your lazy ass up and meet me at the stadium."

And with that I jump out of Naruto's window dashing to the training ground to get in a quick warm up before anything.

~ 47 minutes later~

"Sakura-chan! You'd better get to the stadium before your late!" Misses Hana tells me kindly.

I quickly thank her and sprint towards the stadium. Already the civilian were lining up to get into the stadium. Ninja from the great five nations had come to earn there Anbu title.

I check in to the main office and head to the written exams. I see Naruto's' smiling face and decide to sit next to him. The test is simple and I prayed the whole time that Naruto would pass it. He was more brawn than brain after all

The results were posted and like I suspected I was at the top, coming last but still there was Naruto! I do a victory dance and go over and hug Naruto. Next was the interrogation unit.

They split us up into groups of two and to my dismay I get paired with a Cloud nin, who may I add was hot. He had black hair that spiked up and his yellow eyes made a sexy contrast. But his personality was rotten. He reminded me of Sasuke. That thought made my mood go sour.

It was nice to see a friendly face here though. Ibiki Morino was a gentle man at heart but when he wanted to make you crack, you cracked.

We sat down across from Ibiki and I notice Heiwa(I learned his name, he learned mine) glaring at the back wall. Eh maybe that's what cool guys do nowadays? Staring at walls is fun.

" I want to know your name, age, height, weight, and everything else personal about you." Ibiki replies calmly. I snort mentally.

'Is the great Ibiki, the one who could torture any man into insanity?' I think smugly.

"Heiwa, From Cloud." Heiwa says blandly pointing to his headband. He basically didn't say any new information than what I had plucked from him and the obvious, maybe he wasn't as dumb as he looked? I smirk and just stare at Ibiki. I knew what game he was trying to play. I wasn't buying it.

Ibiki stares at me coldly and I feel a slight shiver run through me. He eyes me for a whole minute before he break eye contact and I slump back into my seat. Heiwa glances at me and I glare at him.

Ibiki continues the interrogation not even getting a lick of info from either one of us.

He piles some papers in front of us and then stands up.

"Alright. I guess you pass. For now at least. Report to the stadium in five." Ibiki grumbles.

I grunt and Heiwa doesn't even acknowledge our presence, instead taking off towards the stadium. I follow quietly after him keeping at least 5 feet apart from him. I didn't know if he was an enemy yet.

A rope hangs from the entrance with a sign dangling on it, In bold letters it reads." "There has been an hour delay due to some recent slip up, report to room 203 or be disqualified.-Love Anko"

I smirk at Anko's weak attempt at tricking people with a simple genjutsu but curiously turn to Heiwa to digest his reaction. He surprises me by cutting the rope with his katana and stepping through. The genjutsu disperse and after I go through I put it back up again.

"More weaklings categorized out…'

As soon as we both enter and an uproar of cheers come from the stands. I don't wave and simply stare at the ground. I see Naruto standing in the center of the stadium with five others, none of them Leaf nin. Looks like only me and Naruto now.

An instructor comes out and calms the crowd down. Looks like the Anbu exams are about to begin.

"Ladies and Gentlemen! The third round of the Anbu exams may now BEGIN!"

A hat with slips of paper in them is passed around and I almost roll my eyes at the childishness of it all. The paper reads the number three and I release the breath I realize I hadn't been holding. Please don't let me face Naruto! Please!

"Alright will the ninja who have numbers three and number seven please step forward!"

My heart sinks in my chest when Heiwa steps forward at the exact same times as me. I gulp and send him a pitying look. But I couldn't let a mere like for him get into the way of my mission. Sorry Heiwa.

I clench my fists as Heiwa eyes me up and down, accessing my assets I presume.

"When you are ready, BEGIN!" The proctor instructs.

I shift my left foot. Heiwa throws a hidden shuriken and I block it with my own. He charges me head on and I smirk…then disappear.

I appear below him and I lash my heel up sky high, into his chin sending him into the air like a rag doll. I hadn't even put any chakra into it yet. I smirk when he lands and am about to walk away when he gets up and is on me with some pretty impressive taijutsu skills.

I block as best as I am able and deliver some pretty nasty bruises to his upper arms and torso. He winces but does not falter at my strength, granted I'm not using any chakra but still. He leaps back when he sees my glowing fist and nicks me in the chin with his sandal. I cuss when I bite my tongue.

He starts to from hand seals faster than I had anticipated from him, I guess I had to up my game then?

"Sandādansu-jutsu o yaku!" he cries and thunder clouds ominously appear around the stadium. I stare at the clouds for a moment, the thunder crackling in them. My ears perk when the lightning strikes the ground and creates a fire, Heiwa in turn throws a shuriken into it and it becomes a flaming shuriken. I curse lightning user and make my own hand seals.

"Mizu no sutairu: Tsuname no danmaku!: I cry out and a barrage of water encircles the inner stadium, engulfing me and Heiwa. I take a deep breath and dive into the water. Heiwa, to my dismay is an excellent swimmer and I face palm when he lands a few good punches on me.

The water eventually clears and I search frantically around the arena for Heiwa.

'Okay Sakura stop and think, this isn't like you, use your head.'

An idea plants itself into me and I smirk when Heiwa throws a barrage of shuriken my way. I back flip and kick them back with a thin layer of my chakra, shocking him and almost everyone in the crowd. Heiwa maneuvers away form the shuriken and Unsheathes his katana. A thin crackle of electricity lights it and I smirk when he attempts to slice and dice me. I underestimated him and when I don't move away fast enough he nicks me in the shoulder, sending my body into slight tremors. I fall on my knee and take root my plan.

Heiwa goes in for the kill but not before he stands stalk still abruptly. A coil more like a vine slithers up his arm, slowly at first but then a sprout of undergrowth erupts from beneath him, engulfing his body. I smirk and then whisper.

"Chikyū no sutairu: Shi no taberu shokubutsu!" Another plum of growth erupts this time all around the stadium, purple death eating plants waiting to kill. Heiwa cuts and dices but to no avail. I take pity on the poor would when one of my plants takes a chomp out of his arm and leg, lifting him up into the air and ready to devour him.

"Release!" I says and my plants whither and die. A fresh bed of cherry blossoms covering the planes of the stadium.

"Proctor, you should end this match, he is unable to continue!" I shout to him across the field. Somewhere between me summoning my death plants and now he had edged closer and closer towards the exit. The sissy.

"Heiwa is unable to continue! Sakura Haruno is the winner and shall become and Anbu representing the Leaf!" A chorus of cheers is heard and wave vaguely and plaster on a fake smile. I didn't feel as if I had won at all.

Naruto hugs me exuberantly and I chuckle.

"Great job Sakura-Chan! I never knew you were so strong! You're a Anbu now and soon I will be too, dattebyo!" Naruto fist pumps and I laugh again.

"It's a promise then…"

The mission Tsunade-shishou had given me right after was supposed to be simple but how did it end up like this?

I wasn't tied up or bound, but rather comfortable if not a bit stiff in a comfortable bed in a dark room. I groan and turn over and the events of the last time I was conscious catching up to me.

"Awww!" I jerk upright only to be caught in my sheets and fall on the ground, cocooned in white sheets.

I unwrap myself and quickly find a wall and edge along it for a light switch. Along this process I notice that I'm not in my Anbu gear anymore but a baggy undershirt and no shorts. I would have blushed at the thought of someone, undoubtedly the enemy undressing me if not for the dire situation at hand. A switch catches in my hand and the room is illuminated. I blink away the remnants of sleep once more.

The room is navy blue. The bed a fine king sized fluffy affair with black silk sheets. If not for the clan symbol sewn into the blanket and well….EVERYWHERE I would have never have noticed (note the heavy sarcasm) that I was in Sasuke's room. His or Itachi's and I highly doubt that.

I have no more time to analyze the room some more before my sensitive hearing picks up the pitter patter of shinobi footsteps. I quickly climb up a wall and latch onto the ceiling fan stealthily. I could tell I was drained of my chakra but I had trained for situations like these. Or at least I thought I was. When the door opened I had expected an Akatsuki member with a torture device of some sort or even handcuffs.

Sasuke Uchiha with a silver platter full of breakfast for me was not my first guess, nor my second or even third.

I narrow my eyes suspiciously. Breakfast in bed? Highly unlikely. A trick to make me comfortable? More likely.

"Why did you bring me here,Uchiha!" I spit out through clenched teeth.

"..Hn…" Sasuke replies vaguely while setting the platter down on a dresser.

Sasuke glares at me on the ceiling. I return the glare tenfold and then I notice the thin smirk he points towards me. I look at him and then at myself. I'm hanging upside down in a thin baggy shirt and….holy shit my panties are showing! Sasuke you perv!

I snarl and drop down onto the floor gracefully, Sasuke gives me somewhat of an appeasing look before gesturing towards the platter.

"Hn,Eat."

"Bite me." I reply curtly and throw a biscuit at his head. Sasuke catches it before it ruins his hair and crumbles it without looking. I flick him off secretively and rack my brain fro some strategies. Chakra deprived, hungry and pmsing, not a good percentage of me or Sasuke making it out of here alive.

"Eat or you will die." Sasuke drawls out staring at the far wall.

"Then kill me, I refuse to eat drugged food, and don't tell me it isn't. I can smell the paralysis powder on the eggs." I say bravely looking at my nails. I needed a distraction for my plan to work…..AHA! embarrassing but effective, hopefully.

"Hey Sasuke, if your not gonna give me some non drugged food could you at least get me some tampons, I am bleeding oh so heav-?" I ask innocently. Sasuke cuts me off and quickly runs towards the door with a sideways glare my way. Hot guys don't run they fast walk. I snicker when he locks the door behind him and produce a small piece of under wire from my bra. I didn't need the support anyways.

I edge over towards the door and attempt to pick the lock.

"Damn it! Chakra locks huh? Pretty clever Uchiha." I sniff the food once more before emptying it into the trash bin, my growling belly cursing me the whole way. It wouldn't do me any good to starve and be doped up. I could only assume they had searched me for all weapons? Damn they even got the soldier pill in my panties. Pervs…..

Sasuke comes back about twenty minutes later, I had another plan but it doesn't mean I had to like it.

I was sprawled on his bed in what I hoped to be a suggestive manner. My ears were probably tinted pink but I didn't care. If I wished to survive to make it back to my precious village and home, sacrifices needed to be made. I mentally spit on Sasuke and almost burst out laughing when he quickly tosses me a box of tampons. Good doggy.

I think I saw his eyes widen when he peeked some of my exposed leg. That's it, fall for it. If I wanted to have a shred of dignity left then I had to do this fast. Sasuke simply glances at the wasted food in the bin and turns to leave. I panic and grab his hand and expect him to pull away but he looks back at me, his eyes softening. I get suspicious and throw his hand away as if burned.

"Why did you bring me here for! The real reason! If you don't tell me I'll….kill myself before you can get any information about Konoha out of me!" I was fibbing of course, my suicide pill had been in my boot and he THEY had those now. Sasuke obviously knows this but plays along anyways.

"You can't kill yourself yet. I still need you." He deadpans. I was confused now. So he didn't want me to spill my guts all about Konoha intel? This must be another one of his tricks.

"Yeah uh huh. Why would you need me? I'm just a weak little girl!" I spit out bitterly.

" Hn, I need you to help rebuild my clan. You should feel special; you did say you loved me." Sasuke seems angry now. Good, anger would leave him weak.

"Ha! Like I'd help to rebuild your shit ass clan! I have standards now you know!" I reply sarcastically crossing my arms.

"Hn, you don't have any choice. This is my request of the Akatsuki, I get my clan and they get my help in destroying Konoha, either way it's a win, win for me." Again with the blank looks. I thought it over and I was cornered. I look wildly around me and find no escape route, I was royally screwed.

"….Fuck me."

Sasuke smirks. "Hn, I intend to."

I glare and Sasuke advances with a devilish smirk. I panic and find the next best thing to a kunai. I throw the lamp at him, knocking the Uchiha Sasuke out cold.

"Some ninja you are…" I say before I bind him and escape out the door.

I wasn't about to be some concubine to a dick head who left me on a bench and berated me my whole life, great ass or not.
