White Rose

Chapter 16

Misty Dock





Last time:

"Well. well. well we meet again cookie and I see you found your little friend" The man laughed and throws a small ball like object at the ground. Smoke covered the little inn while people coughed and ran out of the door struggling for air.





"Come back! You. you" Tomoyo said trying to see through the smoke and coughing. Soon later the smoke cleared and the inn was empty except Syaoran, Tomoyo, Nikki and the waitress. A man walked out of the little door that lead to the kitchen his hair was dark and seemed to look like he blew something up, his eyes looked like they where closed. The man or boy wore a white apron on that was smeared with stains of red and was holding a spoon with some red liquid on it that looked like spaghetti sauce.

"May I ask what's going on?" the boy said placing a hand on his hip and waving the spoon around making sauce fly everywhere. The waitress that remained, the one that served Syaoran, Nikki and Sakura turned her head to look at the boy, she had funny hair that was up in two pigtails and went down in ringlets. "Some thief!" she said in annoyance. The boy smiled and raised one finger into the air like he was stating something "Really, did you know that thieves where worshiped for wearing toilet seats on there heads in Egypt and." The boy didn't get to continue because the waitress lung at him and began to choke him in annoyance " Shut up!! LIES ALL LIES" she yelled. Syaoran, Tomoyo and Nikki went dot eyed and sweat dropped. Just then Syaoran noticed Sakura wasn't in the room. "Sakura???" Syaoran ran out of the little inn.



*Sakura's prove*





"Come back here!" Sakura yelled and ran out of the inn following the thief. She didn't know how or where she was going but she was sensing his movements, she couldn't see anyway to make any difference, then she stopped. Opening her eyes Sakura could see a dock, mist covered everything making it almost impossible to see, a boat hit the dock and the sound of the tide could be heard. Sakura made her way to the boat which looked disserted, the out stretched black sea made it look haunted also, this caused Sakura to get a billion chills down her spine. Taking big inhales of breath Sakura made her way up the boat and looked around nothing was there, it was dark, misty and you could see one bobbing oil lamp hooked to the door of the boat. Walking to the door sakura slowly opened it, inside the room it was deathly dark, Sakura shook with fear but the only reason she stayed was because something caught her attention, it was a book red with golden writing on it "Sakura" Sakura read out loud. The book glowed a fuzzy red colour and a burst of light filled the room. Sakura ducked to the floor, the soothing red began to fad away until the book looked normal once again. Walking to the book sakura could see an animal on the cover; it reminded her of a lion with armor on it and piercing golden eyes. Taking the book sakura turned to leave, walking out of the door sakura was stopped.



A dark cloaked figure stud in front of her, cape flapping in the breeze like it had a life of it's own, it's gleaming blue eyes looked intrigued at sakura. Reaching forward to her the cloaked figure looked as if it were trying to remember something, it's hand reached sakura's face it's cold fingers tracing a line down her cheek, where he touched her blood replaced it. "Sakura." Sakura stepped back eyes open with fear. The figure moved closer, and sakura walked back the closer it came until she could feel the hard wood against her back. "Sakura." it spoke again in a near whisper. Sakura shut her eyes, "No go away!" she shouted throwing her arms up in order to push whoever was coming near her back. She felt nothing, opening her eyes she screamed her hand went right through him. The figure stretched out his hand one more time before fading into the air. Sakura looked at her hands they were covered in blood. Sakura ran and jumped off the small boat clutching the book that still remained in her arms. "Not again!" Looking back sakura could no longer see the dock; in its place were oaks and more trees. "W..hat?" sakura blinked. She sighed in relief and continued walking, not paying attention where she was going 'What just happened' she thought before walked headfirst into a tree. "Owe!" 'Okay! I have to pay more attention to where I am going' she thought again before walking into a cradle, tripped and tossing the book into the air Sakura fell to the floor and rolled down a hill. She reached the bottom with swirly eyes. "Ow.." Sakura sat up and rubbed her head, looking at her knee sakura saw a big gash, touching it lightly sakura face turned red and tears formed in her eyes, "OWWWW!!!!" she hopped around franticly. After sakura finished yelling, she realized she dropped the book, looking around in panic she found it lying on the floor open beside her 'Didn't I drop it way back on the hill?'



Sakura walked to the book and picked it up, 'hmmm a lock' as soon as her fingertips touched it the lock opened. 'What? Okay this is creepy' Sakura thought as she slowly opened the cover, inside she found a necklace, she picked it up it had a blue jewel in it. Turning the page Sakura saw a picture of a tall man with enchanting blue eyes beside him was a girl, she looked exactly like her, jade eyes long brown hair everything except she had a small scar across her temple. Suddenly the book glowed and sakura dropped it, the pages flipped to the beginning.

Something was coming out of the book it looked like.... "Hi" the creature stopped, his jaw dropped open. Sakura blinked and poked the creature in the stomach, "are you a stuffed animal?" she looked at it curiously, "The resemblance.. Is striking you look just like my masters mistress" the creature spoke with one paw on his chin in a thinking mode 'This must be Ying Fa's recarnation' The creature thought before it went dot eyed "I AM NOT A STUFFED ANIMAL!" It shouted. Sakura stepped back in defense "I am Ceroberus guardian of the necklace you're holding right now, I was to give it to you. I am not stuffed animal just look at these muscles, while if I where in my true form you would think wrong." The creature laughed. "So you broke the seal that means the necklace belongs to you" the creature spoke. "You don't look the a Ceroberus your too cute, I'll call you Kero" Sakura smiled happily. Kero went dot eyed 'what a minute I've been called that before by Ying Fa yes this is defiantly her recarnation' Kero was snapped out of his thoughts by sakura stretching him like a elastic band. "What exactly are you Kero?" "AH! Stop!" Kero yelled, "O Sorry" sakura sweat dropped. "Now what's you name?" Kero asked, "I am sakura". "Well sakura I guess you're stuck with me" Kero glowed gold and turned into a golden cat with golden eyes and a red jewel on its forehead shaped like an oval. 'I will speak to you telepathically it's more safer in this form, I will come to you when danger is around but for now I must find out something, till then sakura take care of yourself' With that Kero ran off. "Wait!" Sakura shouted but it was too late. Sighing sakura looked at the necklace that still remained in her hand...







Well that's it for now
