Sakura Golden Wolf's Lobby
Sakura Golden Wolf: Konnichiwa! Well, I've had a rrrrreeeeeaaaaalllllyyyyy bad day. The coolest part of it was the dancers that we had at our assembly. It was awesome! They're native New Zealanders that are touring the world. They are the best dancers I've ever seen! They were really nice. My sister got to talk to them, and she liked them.
(Camera Guy clears throat.)
Sakura Golden Wolf: -_-() Okay! Okay! I was JUST telling them about my DAY!
Camera Guy: *muttering* Trying to distract the readers….
Sakura Golden Wolf: Fine! I'll tell them!
(SGW pouts, crossing her arms and legs.)
Sakura Golden Wolf: All right, all right! All of my guests have gone and disappeared so now I have to go hunt them down. I was really hoping I didn't have to resort to the stupid bunny act…
(SGW dons a hunting outfit and runs off stage.)
Sakura Golden Wolf: I'll find you! Don't worry!
(A pink bunny pops up on stage.)
Bunny: I'm Mr. Bunny! And this is my show, The Bunny!
(Mr. Bunny starts dancing around the stage.)
Mr. Bunny: The Bunny Show, The Bunny Show, iiiiiiiiiiiiittttttttttt'sssssssss ttttttttthhhhhhhhhhheeeeeeeeeeee Bunny Show!

Chapter 14:
Sakura's POV:
Helping me up, Syaoran pointed at my stomach.
"What's that?"
Surprised, I looked at what he was pointing at. I was still holding the book, clenched in my fist.
"Oh. It's just a book I found."
Frowning, he said,
"Is that what made you cry?"
Now I was frightened he'd tell me to put it back. I couldn't! Not now! Something was holding me to this book, telling me not to let go.
"Iie! Erm…. No. It wasn't that. I don't want to talk about it, all right, Syao-kun?"
Startled, he glanced sharply up. Blushing, I got a sick feeling in the pit of my stomach, one that I couldn't shake.
"Hoe… Gomen, Syao-kun. It wasn't the book."
"That's all right. Come on, we have stuff to do."
Making sure I was standing all right, he went up the stairs. Following him, I put my hood back up and slid into my saddle, since I had switched from the side saddle. Untying my horse, he jumped onto his, which, miraculously, had not been stolen or run off. Holding my horses' reins, he led the horses and I down the road, took two lefts, and a right. Stopping at the inn, Syaoran waited for me to dismount, then tied the reins to the rails. Opening the door, he followed me in. The room was full of people, and rough- looking men, at that. Walking up to the counter, Syaoran asked the man who was behind it, "Konichi wa. My.. brother and I would like two rooms."
Rolling his eyes, the man waved his hand across the room.
"Does it look like we have room? Neh, we have but one room. Yeh are brothers, take it or leave it."
Blushing, I nudged Syaoran.
"Is this the only inn?"
"Um… Only one with a room…."
"Hoe…. Just take it."
We were whispering, so Syaoran spoke up.
"We'll take it."
Blushing slightly, he took out a gold coin and flipped it to the man, who spat on it and rubbed it.
"Good. Fine. Room's down the hall, first door to the right."
Taking the key, Syaoran led my there. Opening the door, he came in after me.
"I'll take the floor, you can have the bed, Syaoran."
Blushing, we looked at each other.
"Iie. YOU can have the bed. Beauty before Warrior."
Blushing crimson, I said, "Prince over pauper."
"Eh? Wha-? Never mind. Fine I don't care. Come on. We need to get the supplies."
Blushing, I followed him back out.
Man's POV:
I was in the store, stocking up on my inventory when they's come in. First came the brown haired fella, handsome, I suppose. Then the hooded fella came in. All you could see of him was those big green eyes. Well, they walked up to the counter and asked for several loaves of bread and wedges of cheese. Leaning against the counter, I listened to their conversation while I waited for my order.
"Syao-kun, how long is it to the Ruins?"
The speaker was the hooded one, and the voice was a little high. Now wait a minute, the Ruins? Ain't no one allowed there.
"Should be another week and a half, as least."
Glaring at them, I warned them.
"I wouldn't be going there. The Kiyoto won't let you."
Turning their gaze to me, Amber Eyes asked,
"And why shouldn't we?"
"The Kiyoto won't let you. Everyone knows that."
Amber Eyes just returned my glare.
"Who are the Kiyoto's to say whether or not we can go?"
Scoffing, I rolled my eyes.
"You've never heard of the Kiyoto's? EVERYBODY'S heard of the Kiyoto's! They used to be rival's with the Kinomoto's. Then the other kingdom, the Li, destroyed them. So now that Kiyoto get rid of anyone who comes near the Ruins. They certainly won't let YOU there."
Green Eyes spoke quietly.
"We can take care of ourselves."
Taking my order, I hmphed and walked out.
Tomoyo's POV:
It was quiet that night. The fire that Eriol-kun had built was snapping cheerfully, and Nakuru-chan was the only one not at the fire. Suppi-chan and Kero-chan were having some staring contest, so that left Eriol-kun and me staring into the fire.
"Eriol-kun?"
"Hai?"
"What startled you today?"
"Hmm? Oh… That….. Power surge. They're fine now, though, if that's what you're worried about."
"Oh."
So we sat there, watching the fire, until Eriol-kun suggested that we go to sleep.
"Darn it! I blinked!
Kero's Note: It's not fair! I forgot Suppi didn't have to blink!
Syaoran's POV:
I was still in distress about the bed. Sakura insisted that I have it, but she was still adamant about taking the floor. In the end, she picked up a pillow and plopped it on the floor.
"There. I've claimed the floor. Now get in bed and sleep."
Throwing my hands in defeat, I gave up.
"Fine. I'll take the ed. Good night."
Sakura's POV:
The only thing in my dream this time, was a courtyard. There were hedges all along the edge, and in the center there was a bench, with something sitting on it. As I walked towards it, it began to glow softly. As I stepped up, I bent over to pick it up. As I touched the object, all went white.
Syaoran's POV:
Waking in the middle of the night, I heard an almost imperceivable sniff, that sounded suspiciously like crying. Ignoring it, I decided I'd deal with it, when we left in the morning.
Sakura's POV:
I had slept in everything except the cloak, so when I woke up in the morning, I brushed my hair and donned my cloak, hood up. Looking over at the bed, I grinned mischievously. Dipping my fingers in the water basin, I flicked Syaoran.
"Ohayo. Morning to you too."
Grinning, I flicked him again. Growling, he pulled me onto the bed.
"Are you going to get up?"
Nuzzling my hair, he breathed deep.
"Are you going to flick me again?"
Laughing lightly, I swatted him.
"No! Now come on, I want to get back!"
Getting off of the bed, I let him get himself ready.
************************************************************************
After Syaoran retrieved the horses, we edged our way out of Oyomot. There were many people out and about, though it was early morning. About half way back to the others, several men on horses stepped out on the road. At count, there were six men. Shying back a bit behind Syaoran, I peered anxiously at them. The leader jerked his head at a man, one I recognized from the shop.
"This them?"
Nodding, the man affirmed it. As if a signal, the men came forward, surrounding us. Unconcerned, my horse snorted. I, on the other hand, was nervous. The man in front of us, the leader, spoke.
"Why are you going to the Ruins?"
Glaring at him, Syaoran spoke icily.
"Why does this concern you? It's non e of YOUR business."
Glaring back at him, he named himself.
"I'm Michio Kiyoto. My family governs the land that the Ruins are on. Why are you going there?"
Glaring even more, Syaoran's gaze swept the men.
"Don't the Ruins belong to the Li?"
"Yeah, we govern it though. So what?"
Muttering in contempt, Syaoran snarled, "Well, then, I have every right to go, don't I?"
Narrowing his eyes, Michio asked, "What reason is that?"
Utterly disgusted, Syaoran threw out, "I AM Syaoran Li!"
So much for incognito. The men around us backed slightly.
"Fine. You can go, but you're friend stays here."
One of the men caught my horses' reins and jerked him over. In the movement, my hood fell back, revealing my long hair. Raising his eyebrow, Michio mocked Syaoran.
"Prince Li rides with a woman? Tsk Tsk."
Growling menacingly, Syaoran pulled out his sword.
"Let her go, NOW!"
Getting pissed off, I remembered what the cards had said.
"Sleep, come to my aid."
Instantly, the blue fairy, Sleep, came out and sent everyone to sleep, excluding our horses and Syaoran and me. Glancing at me, I jerked my reins from the sleeping man.
"They were starting to piss me off. Oh, you mean THAT! The cards agreed that I didn't need the key."
Turning to Sleep, I said,
"You may return after we get a safe distance away. Arigato, Sleep."
Smiling, Sleep ushered us off.
"Come on, Syaoran!"
Speechless, Syaoran followed me.
"O-Okay…."
