Chapter 5
Syaoran stalked back down the tunnel and into a wide cave-like end. He furiously kicked the third stone on the right and it crumbled.
"Geez Syaoran, got out the wrong side of the bed this morning?" Syaoran swung around, glaring at the casual speaker.
"None of your buisness, Hiiragizawa." Syaoran spat at Eriol. The tall male figure leaning on a table shrugged, "Well, did you find the Princess?" The blue eyed male questioned, Syaoran mumbled under his breath, Eriol put his hand to his ear.
"Pardon, I didnt hear you." Syaoran gave his most biting glare and sat on a chair staring into space,
"Yeah, so what?"
"Did you arrange to meet her?"
"Yes."
"Well then, whats wrong?"
"Nothing."
Eriol smiled to himself and raised an eyebrow "Really? Doesnt sound like nothing is wrong. It almost sounds like you have fallen for Princess Sakura," His teasing voice brought an angry scowl to Syaorans face.
"Hell no." Syaoran had to hold back a red tint that crept onto his face. "I should hope not." The strangers voice echoed throughout the tunnel.
"Tobias." Syaorans scowl was back, "What are you doing here? We havent finished the job yet." 'Sir' Toby just grinned oily, "Just checking on my favourite actor, I must say you did a brilliant job last night. Just dont let you standards slip for tomorrow."
Eriol patted Syaoran on the back "Do not worry, Toby, Syaoran here will charm the princess, then kidnap her. She will be here ready for you to rescue. There is no doubt Sakura will love you after that."
Toby ran his fingers through his oily black hair and smiled, his mind in dreamland. "Then I will really have it all." Syaoran shot a questioning glance in Toby's direction, as he fingered his pendent. "One problem. What are you going to do about Touya? You want to be king, but he is the rightful heir..."
"Kill him." Toby answered as if it were a not big deal. Syaoran dropped the pendent in shock. "Kill him?!" He echoed Toby's word in a monotone harshness. "This wasnt in the job description," Eriol complained, "And how and why?" Toby almost laughed. "Simple, With Touya gone, I can marry Sakura, sympathise with her AND become King. You will kill him, in the raid planned for tomorrow night. Of course you, boy, will kidnap Sakura for me." Toby poked a sharp finger into Syaoran's chest. Syaoran glared at him. "Dont you have somewhere to be?" Toby looked at his pocket watch "10:30? Ahh yes, I have to go talk with the 'King', Be good boys, I expect the best performance tommorrow."
Syaoran put his head into his hands "I dont know why we put up with him" Eriol stuck out his hand and counted the reasons. "One, He is rich, Two, we get rich, Three, I can buy a proper house for Tomoyo, soon-to-be Mrs Hiiragizawa. Four, We get a chance at a better life Syaoran, No more stealing to provide, maybe you will even find a woman and settle down. A better life, Thats why we do this."
Syaoran sighed and merely nodded "Maybe" Inside he was not so sure. He was torn between Sakura and Toby. 'Money, or love?'
A/N I did warn you Syaoran wasnt who he seemed. :p Betcha didnt see that coming didya?
