   "Nnnnhhhh.... N-? Mnnnnhhhh!!! Nnnn!?!" Sakura didn't know where she was. She was frightened. She saw the crimson clouds upon the black fabric, symbolyzing that whomever was carrying her over their shoulder, was a member or Akatsuki. This was recognized immediatley.

   Then it all came back to her....
   The eerie late-night feeling,
   the sleep attempt,
   the capture.

   Her throat felt dry, she couldn't speak because of the thick black cloth tied around her neck, stuffing into her mouth.

   "Shut up girl. I don't want to have to listen to a stupid woman's screams." A deep voice came from the unidentified character carrying her. She could see white, slicked back hair out of the corner of her jade eyes.

   'This must be Hudan, the foul-mouthed, religious member.' Sakura contemplated.

   "I need a break. Don't try to run away, either. It's futile." Hidan came to a hault, setting the kunoichi on the ground. Once he set her down, he removed the fabric preventing her articulation.

   At first, she didn't speak. She simply studied the man. He was tall, muscular, and rude. Sakura decided that she didn't like anything about him.

   "Where are you taking me?" Sakura managed to speak clearly.

   "Wouldn't you like to know?" His voice was rough and low. Sakura didn't know quite what to say to this. They sat in thick, deadly silence.

   "I'm taking you to an Akatsuki base." Silence=Shattered.

   "But why?! What'd Akatsuki want with ME? I don't have a special kekkei genkai or anything." Sakura was slightly confused. She sat there, looking helpless in her pajamas: A blue tanktop and orange shorts. Her hair was let loose down on her shoulders, it's natural wavy texture evident. The beauty she possesed was being shown through like a lighthouse during a foggy, nacturnal hour.

   Hidan sat for a few seconds without replying. He tried to find the right words to say without revealing too much information. He didn't want to have to kill her. "Leader wants a medic. And you're the best around. Your name is listed several times in every bingo book out there."

   This was a surprise to Sakura. She never thought she was that valuble. But with Tsunade dead now, she more than likely was one of the best around. She had brute strength and astonishingly impressive medical skills and knowledge. The only problem was that she was 100% commited to her village. It was weird to her how now it was someone that wanted HER. She'd always been used to people coming after Naruto or Sasuke or anyone BUT her. This time, the tables were turned.

   To be honest, she liked the thought that she was wanted; No, NEEDED. It was thrilling. She halfway wanted to cooperate with him,  but she knew that if she failed, and was taken back to Konoha, she would be executed for treason.

   "You think you can just TAKE me? Don't you realize that I'm an ANBU Black Hawk and people are going to notice my absence? The Hokage WILL send squads after me," Sakura spoke out. She hoped that her taunting worked, but didn't get her killed. She looked him in his exotic pink eyes. A flare of anger was imminent.

   Hidan growled, "Akatsuki is tenfold stronger than your puny village. And if you don't comply with our demands, you will be killed. Slowly. Tortured by the eyes of an Uchiha." He was referring to Itachi Uchiha, the man who killed his whole clan solely to test the limits of his incredible abilities. She decided to stay quiet. With eyes looking at the ground, ashamed, she nodded. It was obvious that she couldn't rebel. He would kill her in an instant. He had the power.

   After a few more minutes passed, Hidan decided it was time to get a move on. He picked Sakura up again, throwing her over his shoulder. She was quite annoyed with this, but he didn't trust her, and she knew that. He had a reason not to.

   It only took a couple more hours of running through thick forests until they reached a large, cabin-type building. He set her down, tightly gripping her wrist to keep her from running. They approached the cabin, and it felt like their steps were only inches. Anxiety and butterflies filled her stomach, not knowing what awaited her arrival.

   Hidan's free hand reached the doorknob, and pushed the door open. It lead into a living-room type area, where five figures were stationed.
