Chapter 2
* * Li * * I was fast asleep until I heard something. It kind of sounded like a whimper. I slowly got up and looked at the time on the VCR next to my TV. It was 5:03A.M. And I slowly walked to my room wondering what the noise was. I opened the door as quietly as I could and walked up to Sakura who was moving around in my bed. She looked like she was having a bad dream. Her brow was frowning and she mumbles and whimpered louder and louder every second. I couldn't make it out at first but when I got closer I could. " Daddy? What. No please stay.Brother. L-Li?" I heard her yell in her sleep when she stopped moving, I moved forward and held her when her eyes shot open and sat up. I took her into my arms and held her close to me. She stopped moving and started to cry on my shoulder and I tried to sooth her by running my hand though her hair. * * Sakura * * When I went back to sleep I was treated to a dream. I could see my dad and brother they looked at me and smiled. Then suddenly everything went dark and they looked at me almost scared. I tried calling out to them but they started to drift away slowly. Soon they were disappearing, but then I saw a figure come up behind them. I saw a tall man with brown hair and amber eyes, with a sword in his right hand. I tried to move but I couldn't, I called out and he never responded. My brother and dad looked at me with pleading eyes. I looked at the man and saw him look at me and hold his hand out to me. He smiled and said, "I'll be there for you. I promise. " I woke from the dream and someone was sitting in front of me. It was Li and he was hugging me tightly to his body. I saw my dad and brother only to see them leave again. But even so, I smiled. Then something came back to mind and I looked up at Li. He was in my dream, he was the man. I held onto his shirt tightly and stared at him. "It wasn't an accident." He just looked at me. "It wasn't? " was his only reply.
