A ominously dark sky.
The tip of her fingers were cooled the instant they made contact with the frigid windowpane. She felt as though all they joy she had channeled through her fingers and into the glass. It was being consumed by the nightly darkness outside the window. Her body was silhouetted by the quite moon light pouring through the window.
Sorrow filled her eyes, they were in a ghetto. Somewhere there was a feather. Besides the feather, somewhere there were people. People starving, people in pain and people dieing. This frigid night would be many peoples last. Her eye became wet as a single drop fell down Sakura's perfect face.
"You awake?" Kurogane rough, but silent voice broke the perilous calm. With out breaking her connection from the window she turned her head to face Kurogane. She faced him with sad, heavy emerald eyes.
"Yes" the whisper barely escaped her mouth.
Kurogane sat cross legged, back against a barren black wall. The room they were in was small, cramped and dirty. Syaoran lay close to where Sakura had been sleeping, Fai and Mokona on the other side of Syaoran. Mokona slept close to Fai for the warmth, it was cold. The freezing air was inescapable when all Sakura was wearing was a nee length dress worn over and long sleeve shirt. Her boots were wearing through the heals and tights had a few runs it them. However they were more lucky then other people.
Breaking her emotional connection with the window she pulled away. Turning her head to face outside she rubbed her arms, reaching for a warmth she would never achieve. Sighing, she secretly couldn't wait to leave the world. They had only just got here; they had already learned that they had landed in the ghetto of town. A wall separated the ghetto from the rest of the city. People with guns walked around shooting whomever thy pleased.
From what the group of travelers had learned, nearly half a million people had been forced to live in the ghetto for there religion. They could not leave, supplies were imported, but scarce. People were everywhere, disease traveled around fast and most people didn't have a roof over there head. So, they were lucky.
"You should get some sleep" Kurogane looked sideways, sighing heavily.
Sakura nodded.
