"Naruto over here!"

Naruto jogged towards the voice and the moment he reached by Kiba's side, his eyes stuck on Akamaru. They had been traveling non-stop and even though both admitted they were tired, neither even thought of stopping to take a rest. The fact that everyone expected success from them was nothing less than a burden. They knew they has less time and the sooner the got over with it the better.

"This way"

Naruto glances at the direction that Kiba had pointed towards and couldn't help but frown.

"But wait…aren't these the barren lands? As far as I remember, no one has been here in ages!" the blonde exclaimed,

"Exactly"

Naruto spared the brunette a confused look and shook his head a little. They had been sent on many missions before that included visiting the outskirts of the Kingdom and it was safe to say that they knew the place like the back of their hand. Most of these lands were occupied by farmers as the land was quite fertile while small villages that had come into alliance with the Fire country were also situated here however there were a few lands that were completely barren and abandoned either because they had no use or because they were home to bandits.

The Military never bothered with these areas as they never really caused much problem, even the villages nearby were absolutely fine with its existence even so a fair warning had been sent to this area with a few set of rules if broken, drastic measures were to be taken. Since then the land had never been a concern and it was actually shocking when the subjects accepted the terms however this act caused a sense of suspicion to arise in a few military leaders but was ignored shortly.

Realization hit Naruto and he figured what Kiba had meant, this was probably the best place to keep the Princess, it was abandoned and only crawled with criminals. The military would never even take this place into consideration.

"You're right" Naruto mumbled almost inaudibly

"I know, but we still have a problem"

"Great…what's that?"

"Don't tell me you forgot that thses lands are out of bound for us to sneak into, if we get caught, who know what Konoha would do to us" Kiba exclaimed, giving Naruto a skeptical look.

"Yeah…but do we have a choice?"

He never knew he'd live to see the day when he would actually be agreeing with the blonde idiot. He had a point and a strong one, they didn't have much time and they hadn't made much progress yet anyway.

"You're right" the brunette surrendered,

"When am I not?"

This only earned Naruto a glare from his companion.

"Let's Go Akamaru"

Both males entered the area and without a second thought started searching for the lost Princess. The ceremony will be held soon and they did not have much time…one minute late and they'd be done for.

He gently held the candle in his bare hand and scanned the burning flame. His fingers boring into the soft flesh of her delicate wrists mercilessly, faces just inches away, body flush with one another. To say that Sasuke was furious was an understatement, he was beyond furious; he was enraged, his very soul burned in anguish as he stared with those cold orbs at the squirming girl. His Sharingan activated and spinning wildly, the fact that she refused to answer any of his inquiries just worked as a fuel to fire.

"Still not going to tell?"

He expected an answer but was disappointed once again. Sasuke pressed his body harder against her until he knew it was hard to breathe for her. His eyes scanned the rush of wild tears pooling out of her emerald orbs.

She looked so…innocent but he had already seen her real face behind that façade. She disgusted him, her very being made it harder to breathe, it was suffocating. Sasuke knew he was being brutal and he enjoyed every single minute of it. He wanted to hurt her in the worst ways possible after all who was she hoodwink him?

On her lack of response, he brought the candle he had been holding near her face to see it more clearly, he then tilted it and eyed the small drop of hot, burning wax fall down on her bare shoulder. She hissed in pain and struggled harder against his strength but it was painfully obvious that he had the upper hand here. The action caused a searing pain to arise on the spot where it hit her. He chuckled at her reaction and lowered the candle, repeating his action. She squeezed her eyes shut and her lips formed a thin line before she gasped out loud when several drops of molten wax came in contact with her shoulder.

"Listen and listen good…I'll ask you one more time and if I don't get an answer…well…lets just say, some things are better left unmentioned." He whispered in her ear.

Sakura had never been this frightened in her life. Her body shivered at the sound of his voice. What did he mean by that? She didn't want to know.

Before he could torment her further, a knock on the door was heard and both quickly turned towards it. Sasuke cursed under his breath before turning back to the pinkette, "No one knows about this…oh and don't try running away again…I'll catch you" he said sternly before marching towards the door.

Sakura quickly wiped away the tears and straightened herself. She mentally slapped herself for being so careless while talking to Tenten, she was in a heap of trouble and she knew it. She was scared of him, his very presence sent shivers down her spine in an unpleasant way. She had to do something and fast but what?

Sakura saw him opening the door, revealing a smiling Hana, with a slight nod; he passed her and walked away rather angrily. Sakura still stood at the same spot, hand unconsciously moving towards her shoulder where the wax had left huge red marks.

Hana watched her brother-in-law walk out in confusion, her brows furrowed and she quickly glanced at Sakura. Upon seeing her tear stained face she quickly made her way to her.

"Wh-what happened?"

Sakura looked up

"He knows"

He wasn't going to let go of her that easily.

Sasuke had planned to make her spill out everything but Hana just had to come at the right time!

His mind drifted to the other side, he couldn't help but ask himself…

Who was she?

If she isn't the real Princess then who is?

His mind was on overload, he was so infuriated that he decided to march back and demand to know who she was, he didn't care if Hana was there or not, he didn't care if she would know…he didn't care if Itachi would know…he didn't give a damn if the whole Kingdom would know.

He just had to find out.

He had been tricked and who ever dared doing that would pay…dearly.

Sasuke had been roaming in the gardens, night had already fallen and he had all the intentions of going back in his room before he could do so, a plan formed in his mind. He always did like tormenting his prey then what made her so different?

A smirk appeared on his face

"Sakura" he mumbled,

The sound of her name was enough to drive him wild.

She would see why everyone had feared him so much

He would show it to her

He would make her scream at his poisonous touch

He would find out the reality

Alright…so yes I know this is a short chapter but I'll be very honest, I didn't like this chapter, I wanted something better but I have no idea what wrong with me…ARRRGGHHHH!!! Anyways hopefully I'll be fine by tomorrow!! I just wanted to tell you guys, the next update will be in the next two days, I've been kind of busy with my finals and all but don't worry I'll update now!!

I don't know but I'm getting the feeling these characters are kind of immature right??

But hey, I'm new at this; hopefully the next update will be LONG and better!

Anyways 'Darkwolf259' tell me what you think…oh and the next chapter is also dedicated to you since I'm in the middle of it….and I kind of like it so I think you'll like it better…I may not uodate it by tomorrow…since tomorrow is that day we all fear

TOMORROW IS MY RESULT FOR THE FINALS!!

Pray for me guys…my mom's literally screaming at me because she thinks I should start studying and I keep telling her the O level finals aren't till MAY!!!
