Artist at Heart: Art Tower.
"How much farther?" Asked one of the children. Sakura didn't know how to answer. She didn't even know the boundaries of the game.
"I don't know. But we'll keep going till we see houses or other people." She said.
The children and Sakura walked more and more. Only stopping twice for rest. But Sakura felt like she should still be back there. Helping fight against the people who took her away.
Should she go back?
"Look. I think we've made it." Said one of the children.
Sakura looked and they might have been right.
"Stay here." She said. Heading on to check and make sure there's no traps.
"Hold it!" Sakura froze. "Turn slowly." Sakura did as told. She saw a girl.
"You."
"Me?" Sakura questioned.
"Your the Clow Reed child."
"And you are..."
"Meiling. Where's Syaoran?"
"Meiling!" All the children came out to greet Meiling.
"I see. But he's not here. He's staying to make sure we all escaped." Sakura explained. "What did you call me again?"
"Clow Reed child. You are a child of the greatest man in all time. Better then President Snow." Meiling said.
"Oh."
"Look, he's not your direct father, but he's given you special powers. Syaoran and I also have these powers." Meiling explained.
A few more children came from behind Meiling. Sakura knew some of them. From the tower with... "Katniss. Gale. How are they?"
"They are looking for you. Everyone is looking for you. Your power is stronger them mine and Syaoran's. And I'm sure the gamers who took you now know who you are. And you'll be hunted down." Meiling explained.
Sakura was scared. How could all this happen? She didn't know of this person yet...She knew the name. Power. She had power that everyone wanted.
She quickly ran back the other way. "Hay! Where are you going?!" Meiling yelled. But Sakura kept on running. She was going to help. Even if she didn't know what she would do, she was going to help.
Syaoran waited in the center clearing for all the other players. He was going to end this all. He's trained for this. And he was setting everyone free.
"Ma'me, I know who that girl was." Spoke an employee. The head game maker looked at the pepper, and was pissed. "FIND THIS GIRL! NOW!" She yelled.
"Who is she?"
"She's freaking Clow Reed's protege! Find her and get her back in here!" Yelled the leader. "And where is Meiling?"
"My lady. Found Haymitch isn't in the prison." Spoke a man.
The lady had her head exploded. "FIND THEM ALL!" She screamed.
All the other players made it to the clearing. Syaoran had his sword ready.
"My lady. Syaoran. He's fighting all the players!" One of the observers shouts.
"Put a bounty on that boy's head! Dead! And one on his cousin too!" She yelled.
Off in the distance, Katniss, Gale, and Haymitch were heading right to the clearing.
"Sakura!" Katniss shouted.
But it was Syaoran. "You again?!" He shouted while getting all these kids off of him.
"Hang on." Katniss pulled out her bow and began firing. Arrows flying in the air. Gale used a hatchet and a huge ax he grabbed.
Haymitch just punched everyone that came close to him. Picking up anything spare to use as a weapon.
The head lady was watching all the fighting going down. "Have them killed too. Can't let an escaped live. And that man is trespassing. But her. I want her HEAD! Mockingbird." She growled.
Everyone fought their hardest.
Sakura was still running through the woods. Making her way to her friends.
"Sakura. Wait."
A voice spoke to her and she stopped all together. "Who's that?"
"Who do you think Sakura?"
Sakura only took one guess. "Clow Reed?" Shrugging.
"Good. Now, let me help you. You have the power to save your friends. But I need to give you the knowledge. Let me help you."
Sakura wasn't sure what she'd do. And if they wanted her power, then..."Alright. I want to save everyone. No killing. No more blood!" She shouted.
"I understand. Here."
Sakura felt life flowing through her. A glowing warmth filled her whole body. Was this magic?
She closed her eyes and let it all go. She wasn't scared anymore. She wasn't afraid.
"I love these paintings on the walls." Sakura said to draw away from the topic.
"Yeah. All the children loved painting them. It made it all seem peaceful. I'm glad they still could paint on these walls." He said.
"I know. Painting is so peaceful. I love painting. I keep telling myself one day, I'll be selling all my beautiful paintings to make people happy. And to give back a lot of money my brother has spent on me." Sakura said.
She remembered things she talked with Syaoran.
"Because I hope for everything. And hope is what get's me through my life. Since my mother died and my father...Well. Hope is what my brother taught me. So, I always hope. I hope to be out of this mess. I hope to me with my family again. I hope for Katniss to find her family. I hope for you and your people to rebuild this place. These towers are SO beautiful."
Hope. That's what this was. Her magic, was hope. Is hope.
