Hi all. This is a new multi-chapter story that I am writing. It came to me one day and I couldn't resist trying it. Its because of this that Jade Dreams took so long to update. :D
I'll try and update weekly since I am a few chapters ahead. Let me know what you think. Also I'd like to dedicate this chapter to Smitha and Animefangirl for helping me come up with a name for my story :) Thanks you guys :D

Misaki grit her teeth against the blinding pain in her left arm. Today's fight had been a lot more troublesome then most. Her breath was coming out in short pants as she forced herself to walk with her back held straight.
"Never let the enemy see you're back bent, it is a sure sign of weakness" her father had once told her. That was of course before he died. Her father was killed just two years ago by a rival gang.
"Misa-chan is that you?" came a soft voice from behind. Misaki whirled around to see Sakura walking swiftly towards her.
"Sakura…" Misaki breathed out relieved. Sakura gestured to Misaki to follow her and she led her out the alleyway to a side street and to the car waiting there. Sakura pulled open door and let Misaki into the back. She closed the door behind her and sat in the front.
Misaki collapsed in the back and closed her eyes due to exhaustion. "Misa-chan, what happened to your arm?" a voice asked from the driver's side (A/N: Left cause I'm Canadian…)
"Hello to you too Kuuga" Misaki said sarcastically to Sakura's boyfriend Kuuga. The three of them had been together since they were young and even now they stuck together. They were usually the ones who took care of her transportation. Misaki duly noted that this time they had brought a BMW 7-series in complete black along with the tinted windows. The black leather was cold beneath her and she leaned back into the comfort of the seat.
"Greetings can wait, now tell me, how's your arm." Misaki rolled her eyes. Typical Kuuga.
"It's fine, just a little scratch and maybe a minor fracture in my left elbow." Sakura sighed in relief.
"That's not so bad, I mean compared to… uh ya…it's not that bad…" she ended off awkwardly remembering Misaki's worst injury almost causing her death.
Misaki had zoned out by now and no longer cared for Sakura's idle chatter. She fell into a dreamless sleep while the car drove on to reach her home.
Kuuga looked into the rear-view mirror and smiled fondly at Misaki. "Sakura… do you regret any of this?" This was a question often asked and often answered.
"Never" came Sakura's answer.
"Me neither" responded Kuuga.
"Good" Sakura ended. Last time, it had been Sakura who had started, this time it was Kuuga's turn. Next time, it would be Sakura's turn once more.
Kuuga reached out with his right hand took hold of Sakura's hand. He grasped it softly and smiled when she entwined their fingers together. This was routine and though it caused pain and tortured them all, sometimes… it was all they really had left.
Short chapter, but hopefully it was a good one :D
Peace out
