Fire Of The Phoenix
Miaka was walking through the palace corridors when she heard her seishi talking about her.
"She hasn't been acting like herself." She heard Hotohori saying.
"Yeah, like, she didn't even eat at dinner." Tasuki remarked.
"And don't forget, she hardly talked the whole day." Tamahome added.
"And her eyes… they've lost their spark, no da…." Chichiri said sadly.
"…" Nuriko remained silent.
"Is something the matter Nuriko?" Mitsukake asked him.
"No…. Nothing is wrong…."
"Are you sure?" Chiriko asked him.
"Yes. I'm sure." Nuriko stood up. "Please excuse me. I'm feeling… tired tonight." Nuriko told the others.
"Of course Nuriko. You may be excused." Hotohori told him.
Nuriko bowed and walked towards the door.
Miaka heard him coming so she ran of to her chamber.
She locked the doors once she got in and collapsed on her bed. She stayed still for a few more minutes then she got up to go to her desk. She sat at the chair and picked up the letter next to her books.
Miaka,
Come to the hill on which the sakura tree stands. 12 midnight. Come alone. Don't be late.
Yui.
She reread the letter and sighed. She thought about the conversation earlier between her seishi.
'Should have known they would notice.' She thought bitterly to herself. 'I think the boys will be asleep at around 9…. I hope so. I do not want to go to extreme measures to get them asleep.' She thought to herself. She got up to go outside the balcony. It was a cloudless night and the stars looked beautiful. She supposed it was around 7.
'I'll go take a nap. I still have time at least.' She plopped own on the bed and went to sleep, dreaming about what could happen at the encounter she was going to have to face later.
