Sakura could barely hear his voice. She felt her head be yanked to the side.

She struggled to open her eyes, only to have her face spat on.

"Answer me bitch, how much blood do you think you've lost?"

"I, I don't know.."

This time, the slap was on her butt.

Then she heard a ring at the door.

"Get cleaned up, my girlfriend doesn't want to see you like that" he said this while untying the ropes and tossing her aside.

Sakura stood up shakily, Only to tumble to the floor again.
Her entire body ached and she could tell that bruises were already beginning to blossom across her skin.

She wiped off her mouth and spat blood out on the floor.

She could hear yelling coming from upstairs.

Her first instinct was to jam a knife down his throat but she thought "what if it was someone else?" So she wobbled upstairs, leaning onto the wall for support.

Her eyes widened at the sight of a violet haired girl with opal white eyes. She stood against the porch wall and was very soft spoken.

"Now listen here, whore, you either sleep with me for the promotion or you get fired, this is the last time I'm going to tell you"

His words were laced with poison.

Sakura felt bad for the poor girl. In fact, she could tell by the girls voice that she didn't want either of those options.

Sakura then heard another voice.

"Hey! What are you doin to Hinata!" The voice yelled. It wasn't out of suspision either. Just curiosity.

"She asked me if I had any business proposals for her"

The girl, Hinata, shook violenty as if she was either scared to death or freezing in cold weather.

"N-naruto-kun.. it's alright" she whispered.

The male shrugged and pointed in the direction of a busy road.

"Let's go get some lunch with Sasuke, neji and gaara" he sounded excited and blabbered on for about ten minutes, oblivious to the situation.

Hinata nodded and bowed towards Sakura's stepfather. Sakura didn't hear the rest of the conversation because she bolted.

She ran quickly past the boy and the girl, both of them looked after her in suprise. She heard her stepfather cry out in anger as she ran.

She didn't stop until it was dark and she was a few miles away.

She breathed heavily collapsing on the pavement. She then crawled under a tree and holding onto her stomach.

There is definatly a broken rib or two

Looking around she saw the road, a large "Ikea" sign and a few streetlights.

She wrapped her arms around her waist. Thankfully, she still had her clothes on. She checked them to make sure they were fully intact.

She looked around more and saw a sign for a hospital. She then made her way over slowly, but surely.

It toon a while but, once she entered, she saw only a few nurses and a woman with long blonde hair who waved at her while reading documents.

"Is there something you need?" The woman called out as if she was an authoritative figure.

Sakura took a step before collapsing. She could hear panic around her but it sounded like oceans.

When she woke up, all she could see were the blinding white lights of the hospital.

Her eyes made out a figure with short brown hair.

"Hello, I'm shizune, your nurse, well for now, doctor senju will be with you in a bit"

Sakura nodded quietly.

"I need you to answer some questions, if that's alright"

Sakura nodded again

"Go ahead"

"Name?"

"Haruno, Sakura"

"Age?"

"17"

"Birthday?"

"March 28"

"Guardians or parents"

Sakura tried to swallow. Her throat was dry.

"My parents....are dead."

"Mr. and mrs.haruno? That can't be right"

"What?" Sakura looked up at her quickly.

"I've heard the name Haruno, it's a-"

"Shizune!! I today you to notify me as soon as she woke up"

"You told me to ask her questions miss"

The blonde woman rolled her eyes.

"So, miss Sakura, what happened? Your wounds show signs of struggle, and torture, sexual battery and negligence as well as famine"

sakura was amazed she could tell all of that since she knew they had no time for a complete CT scan of her.

"It's....because..." Sakura attempted to say it but only succeeded in choking while holding back tears.

"Save it, I know what you need"

"To leave"

" No. You can't give in to them. You need to fight"

"I-"

"Do you want to or not, this is the only chance you're gonna get"

Sakura looked up at the older woman. Anger built up inside of her and with a nod, the woman smiled.

"Tommorrow, five am, here do not be late"
