Just sittin' in Science, doing absolutely nothing apart from writing this chapter… I'm so rebel.
Sakura froze, finding herself unable to move. Instead all she could do was watch as the person in front of her circled around her, stopping once he was directly in front of her vision. "You're a demon, aren't you?" Sakura snarled. He smiled, "Very clever." He said. "It's rather obvious from your disgusting aura." She spat. He stepped closer to her, and she took a step back in attempt to get away. "What do you want with me?" Sakura asked, voice shaking. She knew she was most likely stronger than him, but something about him frightened her. She took another step back, foot landing in the pool of water behind her. "Remembering your mortal death?" he asked, smiling. "I have no idea what you're talking about." He raised his eyebrows, as if he were surprised by what she was saying. "I'm sure you're confused about the memories that are resurfacing." He smirked. Sakura still didn't understand but decided that she would defend herself, but it was mostly due to frustration and confusion that she materialised her platinum bow and arrow. She fired the arrow, hitting the wall behind his head as a warning. "A warning." She snarled. He raised his eyebrows at her, "Warning? Why you could have hit me if you never had such a kind heart; but then, that's what I should expect from the Goddess of Light." He laughed. She set another arrow on her bow and drew back the string. "I won't miss this time." Sakura aimed the arrow at his heart, but was shocked to see him hold up his hand in front of himself and allowed the arrow to go straight through his hand. He wasn't bothered by the burning of his hand, focusing more on the expression showing on Sakura's face. "How did you…?" Sakura whispered, completely taken off guard. He moved swiftly, appearing just centimetres before Sakura and whispered in her ear "I killed your mortal body" before delivering a blade into her side. She felt something course through her immortal blood, poison her. She fell to the water and watched as blood stained the pristine water. "What did you…do to me…?" Sakura whispered hoarsely. "Just a little bit of demons blood." He answered. Sakura's eyes widened, and when she tried to move her body she found she had no control over it.
Syaoran rushed to where he could sense Sakura's aura slowly being defiled, smelling blood in the air. Sakura-! He knew it was forbidden, but even so he used his ability to disappear and reappear wherever he wanted in the mortal realm. He reappeared in the chambers where Sakura was lying in blood red water, and a man standing above her watching her bleed. His head turned to Syaoran, who was looking at Sakura's body in the water. One thing he was thankful for was that she was an immortal being, but at the same time he regretted that she was as he could see the slow darkening of her golden aura. "Ryuuji." Syaoran snarled. "Hello Syaoran." The demon smiled. "What the hell did you do to her?" Syaoran demanded. "It's quite simple really; I injected her with some of my blood." He replied simply. Syaoran was furious, and using his anger he manifested two long swords that were connected by one long chain. "I promise, I will kill you." Syaoran grimaced. "Where have a heard that one before?" Ryuuji rolled his eyes and pulled out a double ended sword, swinging it down by his side and taking his fighting stance. "Bring it on." Syaoran said. He didn't allow anger to blind him, or distract him from his objective. He simply allowed himself to move the way he wished, deflecting each strike with a few small powerful blows. At that current point, Syaoran was just messing around with Ryuuji, but things got a lot more serious as he watched Sakura's aura darken even more.
With much difficulty, Sakura turned her head to see Syaoran fighting with her enemy. She could feel the poison in her blood destroying her aura, slowly destroying her as well; the only way to destroy a god or goddess. "Syaoran…" she whispered quietly, a smile appearing on her lips.
Syaoran looked over to see Sakura's lips form his name and a smile appear on her lips, giving him more strength to fight his enemy. Ryuuji blocked Syaoran's blow and stepped back, "Sorry, I'm afraid I have to leave now." He said. "It's rather rude of you to leave in the middle of a fight, don't you think?" Syaoran smirked. "Indeed, but then, I'm also a demon." Ryuuji smiled, putting his blade away. Syaoran mulled the words over in his head, somewhat agreeing with what the demon was saying. "True." Syaoran said, placing his own weapons away. "Good luck with the goddess, Syaoran." Ryuuji said before disappearing.
Syaoran walked over to Sakura and carefully picked her up from the pool, not caring about the extra weight her wet clothing carried. He pulled something out of his breast pocket; it was a small vile full of a dark blue liquid. He flipped off the lid of the bottle and carefully tipped the liquid into her mouth, waiting for her to swallow. Once she did, he carried her out of the ruins and placed a barrier around the place to stop mortals from entering the area in fear that something similar might happen to a mortal in the future. He then took her back to the godly realm, where Chii and the others were waiting patiently.
Tomoyo, Chii, Fai and Yuui were waiting patiently for Syaoran to return with Sakura, anxious to know of her wellbeing. Chii was tapping her chair nervously, while everyone else sat in silence. "Do you think she'll be alright?" Tomoyo asked quietly. Chii stood up from her chair and started pacing around the room. "She has to be! After all, Syaoran went to get her back…" she trailed off, uncertain if Syaoran had found Sakura yet. Fai looked at the door behind Tomoyo, noticing Syaoran's and another presence-he figured it was Sakura-behind the door. "Tomoyo, the door." He said. Chii was a lot faster to the door than Tomoyo, and opened it to reveal a rather upset Syaoran and unconscious Sakura in his arms. Her eyes widened, "Syaoran…what happened to her?" She asked desperately. He walked past her without answering, disappearing around the corner and up the staircase to Sakura's room. Chii went to follow, but Fai placed a hand on her shoulder, gaining her attention. He shook his head, silently telling her that those actions would not be advisable. She stopped and watched Syaoran's back slowly retreat around the corner, feeling irritated that she couldn't go see her friend yet.
Syaoran placed Sakura on her white bed, stripping her of her drenched clothes and pulling the covers over her body. Her wound had already healed due to the fast workings of the antidote that he had given her, and it was now working around the rest of her body to destroy the cells of the demon blood inside her. He sat on the bed, watching the dark clouded sky of the godly realm that was nearly always clear during the day, but because Sakura had been infected with demon blood the sky had darkened; this had alerted all of the other gods and goddesses that something was indeed wrong. Syaoran turned his head to see a very unexpected guest standing by the door; Zeus, or more commonly known as Clow Reed.
I hope that was alright xD Review? Oh, I also finished this at home, so yeah, I admit I kept getting caught in science xD eheheh.
