Sakura gave a weary, shuddered breath as she tried to flex her body ever so slightly. Chained as she was to this metal slab, she couldn’t get enough leverage to slip her bonds. Still, that wouldn’t have cause much of a problem were it not for the many, high powered lights handing about the room. All of the trained on her. The heat coming off the lamps made the room stuffy and hot. But it wasn’t the temperature of the room that was, practically, cooking the young woman. It was the light.
For years she had been fighting and hiding, literally, from the shadows. All thanks to a curse from witch with a grudge. Why The Hand thought, with their use of magic, that she would ever join them was beyond her understanding. Maybe they hoped to kill her with this much exposure to light. That had never been tried before… and as the saying goes, there’s a first time for everything.
The pain caused her to fade in and out of consciousness. During one of these times, she thought she heard something outside the door to her cell.
