Empress shiro shinju
The first run in
My father the traitor
They were all on the shuttle. Sleep. The first word that came to Sakura's head. So many memories and questions were clashing in her head. She was rolled up like a ball in the seat and felt very cold for some reason .tomoyo was next to her. She was patting her on the back to give her comfort. ' When I feel better I will find my brother and my father.' She said to herself as tears tried to come to her eyes. She held them back. A question struck her head. ' Where was heero and everyone when this happened? Were they really in the Gundams like in my dream? Where are Kero and yue?!?!' she frantically asked herself. She sat up and looked out the windows to see if they were keeping a low profile and flying outside. They were not there. "sakura what's the matter?" trowa asked while kindly looking at her. She completely ignored his question and kept searching the windows. Heero glared at her. So she did have a strange power. For some reason he didn't feel the same as he had before. Sakura stopped searching and ran over to tomoyo. Tomoyo stared at her sadly as did the rest of the people on board. "where are the clow cards?" she whispered in her ear. "I don't know." Tomoyo said sadly. Sakura's heart fell to her stomach. Syaoran was dead, Yue and Kero are missing, there is no sign of mei-ling , and now the clow cards are gone. She sat in her seat, curled back up into a ball and began to fall asleep with tears dripping down he cheeks. She wanted to just sit down and cry loudly without any shame.
"yo, heero" Duo silently said. "what." He said monotonously. "do ya think that she's going to go in a comma? I saw it in a movie. This boy named ricky witnessed a man commiting suicide and he pissed his pants and then he walked home, curled into a ball and began to suck his thumb. I cant tell is she sucking her thumb? I don't think she pissed her pants…" Duo said silently while slightly standing to get a good look at her. (a/n: ring any bells? The client) "you watch too much tv." Heero said but he knew it could be possible. Heero thought hardly for a moment. She's not responding when someone is calling her and is constantly curling herself in a ball. "I don't know. We will just have to wait and see." heero said and took a good look at her. He was kinda sad but not really. Its not like he hadn't seen this before. His mind constantly wondered off to relena.
At last he told her that he loved her but it made no difference since she was dead. He felt hurt. She was the only person that he learned to love and the only one that treated him equally. He felt like an idiot and he had a strong sense of sorrow growing in his stomach. It was kind of like a
3soothing pain that made him want to take deeps breaths. He didn't do that though. He's not supposed to have emotion. now that relena's is gone, he doesn't have to worry about emotion. She was the only one he felt emotional to.
"Please buckle up as we are ready to land at colony L1. Please remain seated." The flight attendant said in a fake overly happy voice. "Sakura come on you have to buckle up." Tomoyo said shaking her lightly. Sakura didn't move. "come on sakura. You don't want to get hurt do you?" tomoyo said trying to convince her to put the seat belt on. "I don't care." She said and stayed in her position. Tomoyo sighed and put the seatbelt over sakura anyway. The shuttle landed to a bumpy halt. "thank you for boarding N.K.Y Space. Please exit to either left or right exits." The attendant said and smiled. Tomoyo took the seatbelt off sakura and tried to get her to stand. "come on sakura you have to get up." Tomoyo said. She was about to carry her on her back if she had to. Before Tomoyo could say anything more Duo came over and picked her up. "It's ok I got her." He said and began to walk. Sakura's eyes shot open to look to see who was carrying her. She saw it was duo and struggled to get away. She didn't trust them for reason's she didn't know. Mabey it was because they didn't help syaoran? She didn't know and she didn't really care. Duo looked surprised and put her down gently. "her personality has changed a lot. Mabey there is something wrong.' He said as he watched her walk away. Sakura looked back and walked away fastly.
"Sakura wait!" tomoyo said and began to chase after her. Tomoyo's head was really starting to bug her. She held in the aching through the flight but now that she was running it hurt even worse. She stopped to breathe. Everything around her was spinning and she passed out. Hearing the loud thump sakura turned around to see tomoyo on the ground. "Tomoyo!!" sakura said and ran back to her side. "tomoyo get up please get up." Sakura said and shook her. Tomoyo didn't wake up and sakura got worried. " come on tomoyo get up." Sakura said with tears starting to flood her eyes. Once again she was going to cry. She hated crying now. Her eyes stung so she held her tears in again. "she unconscious. That's all." Duo said. Sakura looked up at him. His eyes were soft and saddened. 'for a soldier he doesn't seem like one. He's nothing like heero or trowa. Well quatre isn't soldier-like either but this one is different. He acts more human' She said to herself and watched him pick her up.
"Come on. We have to go see somebody before we go anywhere." Duo said. Heero went infront of duo and lead the way. Duo looked over at him. "what are we going to do with them? They are not safe with us." Duo said silently. "we will see what dr. j does. If they are to be brainwashed then so be it. It would be best for them." Heero said loudly enough for sakura to hear. Her eyes went wide. "No!!" she screeched and backed away a little. Heero and duo turned around. Duo looked startled and so did heero. He thought he was talking silently. "I don't want to be brainwashed! I want to have my memories!" she said. "I want to remember syaoran and yue and Kero! You can't take that away from me after you have already took so much!" she said with tears freely flowing down her face. She really hated crying now that this was her fifth time on the same day. She turned around and ran but only ran into trowa and the others. She fell on her butt and crawled back fearfully. The other's looked startled too. The had sympathetic looks on there faces but sakura didn't care. She bumped into duo and heero and she finally found out that she was surrounded. Before sakura knew it she was grabbed and held back. Trowa was holding her firmly and since he was so strong she couldn't get out of his grasp. All she could do was kick and scream and hope he would let her go.
"NO!!! NO YOU CANT MAKE ME GO!! PLEASE I DON'T WANT TO LOSE MY MEMORY!!" she yelled and kicked the air. She looked like she was insane. Wufei put knockout liquid gas on a towel and put it over Sakura's face. A few seconds later she was fast asleep. A whole crowd of people was around them. Somebody had to say something. Quatre spoke up. "oh it's nothing to worry about. She just wants to go back home but she can't because her colony was destroyed. Sad really, she lost her family in a horrible accident." Quatre said in a british voice and sighed sadly. The crowd had sad looks on their face but went on with there own business. "heero what did you tell her?" wufei asked firmly. "I didn't say it loudly. If I did you would have been able to hear it too." Heero said and glared. "yeah he's right. He whispered it and I don't know how she heard." Duo said. Trowa put her gently over his shoulder and continued going to Dr. J's lab. After a few train rides they arrived. Sakura and tomoyo were still asleep. Heero went infront of the steel door. There was a machine gun on top of the door in case of intruders. Only heero knew about it though.
"please state name." The female robotic voice said. "heero Yuy." He said in a monotone voice. "Access secured." The voice aid. A square box thing appeared infront of him. He put his hand on it and let it scan. Of few short seconds later the door opened. "follow me. You don't want to get lost in this place." Heero said and lead them down a few hallways and trap doors. The entered a large dark room with metallic computers five feet high and other sorts of confusing equipment. You can definitely not buy any of this stuff at Best Buy. "Dr. j." heero said. A light flashed at the corner of his eye and he turned around. A long silently deadly second passed and a flurry of bullets came charging past. The other g-boys jumped in the air and settled themselves on a large pipe but heero stayed down. He kept dodging the bullets with a glare in his eyes and took out his pistol. He shot into the darkness and heard an explosion. Behind the explosion the faint sound of an old man chuckling could be heard. "still as fast as running water." Dr. j said and slowly appeared. Heero's glare became stronger and the g-boys came down from there hiding spot. "well I guess we have company." Dr. j said and looked and the sleeping girls. "how long does the medication last?" trowa asked. "I dunno. Mabey two or three hours so she will probably be waking up soon." Wufei said.
"now what do you people want. Heero if you want parts too bad you'll have to buy your own." He said. Heero crossed his arms with an expressionless face. "what should we do with them." Heero asked and nodded towards sakura and tomoyo. "hmm well let's see. they look familiar…" Dr. j said and rubbed his chin with his thumb. "you were talking to them just last night. Don't you remember?" heero asked and stopped himself from rolling his eyes. "oh yeah now I do. I remember that big scar on her face. They look bigger in real life." He said. "wait so you know them?" quatre asked. "well no I met them. Heero left his laptop in Sakura's room and she heard me paging him and she opened it and I talked to her and tomoyo." He said. Quatre nodded. "ok enough talking what should we do with them?" wufei asked and folded his arms. He looked ticked off. "I say that we keep them. I mean it would only make sense right? We are the only people she knows that are alive right?" duo asked and boosted tomoyo up and bit. She was on his back still unconscious. "I say that we should just brainwash them and send them to an adoption center." Heero said with a hint of emotion in his voice. If they agreed then he knew he would regret it for the rest of his life and if they didn't then he would be relieved. Adoption center's were no fun. They would probably go by fast though since they wre pretty and smart.
"hmmm…brain wash them? Let me think…" he said. Duo glared at heero. Sakura got her point made that she wanted to keep her memories and yet heero doesn't care and still brings out his plan to brainwash her. He wasn't like this when relena was alive. I guess the compassionate part of heero died with relena. "no heero. She already made her point clear. Let me repeat it for you. SHE-DOES0NOT-WANT-TO-BE-BRAINWASHED." Duo said while keeping his glare. Heero glared back. "duo this isn't for my sake. It's for hers." Heero said while glaring back. Sakura's eyes began to flutter open. Her vision was blurry but her hearing was fine. Heero continues talking without knowing she was up. " She will have a new set of parents a new brother, a new best friend whatever. She won't have to worry about pain or sorrow because she won't remember." Heero said roughly. 'She was terrified of them anyway so it would be better for her.' Heero said in himself. Sakura's eyes burst open. She felt queasy but still managed to get off Trowa's shoulder. "NO!!! I AM NOT GOING TO LOSE MEMORY!! YOU CAN'T MAKE ME!!!" she screamed. She ran off through the hallways. "heero get her! She will get lost!" dr. j said. Heero nodded his head and ran for her. The others were about to follow but dr. j stopped them.
"no stay here. Heero and myself are the only one's that know how to get around here. Fall into the wrong hole and it could mean death." He said putting venom in his voice. It sent a shiver down Quatre's spine. "follow me duo. I have a bed where you can rest her." Dr. j said and started walking off. Duo followed him to an elevator. "The rest of you stay here. I had already explained what could happen so make my point clear." He said before the doors of the elevator closed. "my engineer isn't that normal." Quatre said. The rest nodded their heads and waited.
~~~~~~~~~~~
"Sakura!" heero called. She wasn't faster than him but she was slick. It's like you think she will go straight but instead takes a sharp turn. 'no. I won't lose my memory. I hate them!' she said to herself. "I HATE THEM ALL!!" she screamed and gave away her position. The walls were made of cold rough granite so her voice echoed. Heero heard it and followed it. He now knew exactly where she was. She was in a dangerous hallway. Full of trapdoors and sensors. If she hits a sensor knockout gas will fill the room and if she hits a trapdoor she will fall 12 feet and be stuck in there for a loooooooong time. The is no way to climb up because the walls are waxed. That particular hallway lead to the dr.'s building area. All the new and unfinished models were being either finished or created. They could be dangerous if they fell into the wrong hands. "Sakura wait!!!! Don't go down that hallway!" heero yelled and ran faster then he had before. Sakura heard him catching up and ran faster also. Se kept running and slipped into a deep, large hole. She managed to grab the edge before she fell into the dark abyss. She screamed loudly and it echoed through the halls. Heero heard and ran faster. He saw her barely holding on so He grabbed her arm before she fell and pulled her out. She was holding onto him and was shaking in fear. He sighed in relief. "you shouldn't wonder around in this place." Heero said in a firm and demanding voice. Realizing what was happening she stood up and backed away. Heero stood up also. "don't step back." He said and took a small step forward. she slightly stepped back. "stay away from me!" she snapped. "sakura don't move." Heero said cautiously. "why? So you could captured me and brainwash me so I could forget everything? Yeah right!" she yelled and took a big step back. It missed the sensor. She brought the other foot back and, well, hit the sensor. Walls came from the ceiling and blocked the exits. Sakura looked down and saw the floor going down. Below was a pool of black water. Who knows what was in it. "aaahhh!!" she screamed and her feet began to slide. Heero was sliding as well. There was nothing he could do. They fell and landed in the water. it was about as high as sakura. She panicked and began to splash around all over the place. Heero picked her up and held her in his arms. She was lighter since they were in the water. For some reason she felt safe in his embrace. She refused to look at him. "don't worry. There is nothing in this water. The man may be strange but he's not psychotic, I don't think." He said and looked up. sakura didn't say anything. She stayed as still as possible. "Can you float?" heero asked. sakura didn't say anything and pushed off his warm body and floated. She was mad at him. She thought he was her friend but I guess he wasn't. Heero nodded sadly and went underneath the water. Sakura watched him go under. She didnt know what he was going to do but didn't care. Underneath the water heero searched for a control panel. He found a button and pushed it. The barrier opened and the panel appeared. He pressed a yellow button along with many others and went back to the surface. "someone should be here soon." He said while looking at her. She looked like she was lying on the ground because her arms were folding behind her head and she was stiff. She glanced at him and didn't say anything. Heero looked at the water and folded his arms. He leaned his back on the shiny, slippery wax wall and waited. The water was freezing and they were both drenched. Sakura thought her body was going numb but didn't show anything because She didn't want help from him anymore. She knew that she wouldn't be able to float forever and dismissed that thought from her head. She made it her goal to not have any help from the betrayful heero Yuy.

"why is this button beeping?" quatre asked while walking over to the gigantic computer. It was one from many others that all had different names and letters. Wufei walked over to see what he was talking about. "well I guess that there is only one way to find out." He said and pushed it. "if we get in trouble its your fault." Quatre said in an uneasy way. "I don't care." Wufei said and rolled his eyes. A screen popped up with words on it. It said 'I have found sakura and we are stuck in the trapdoor well. Get us out now.' "I guess its heero." Wufei said. "how do you get them? out do you have to go look for them or something?" quatre asked. He didn't know if dr. j had other ways of doing things. "I think we should wait until he comes down." Wufei said and looked at the keys. "we have a one out of a thousand chance to pick the right button which, if you ask me, is very small." He said. Quatre nodded and they continue waiting for the dr. and duo.
~~~
"do you think that she will be ok?" duo asked concerned. "yeah she will be fine. You must take her to a real doctor so she could heal. Im afraid that this is all I can do." He said and dabbed her wound with antibiotics. He put a small bag of ice on her head. "yeah ok. But wait, I don't have insurance." Duo said upsetly. Dr. j looked at him as if he were stupid. "you're a gundam pilot aren't you? What did your trainer teach you huh? Heero will know what to do." He said and shook his head. "the stupidity of that insane man. I almost feel sorry for you duo." He said and began to walk out the door. "im gonna stay up here and wait until she wakes up. You wouldn't want her wondering around here would 'ya?" he said. "I don't care do as you wish." He said and pushed a button outside the door. The door electronically shut closed. Duo yawned and sat on a chair.
~~~~
"Dr j heero and sakura left you a message." Quatre said. "hmm I see." he said and stepped off the elevator and into the big room. He glanced at the message and somehow made a big map appear infront of them. "well let's see… they are near the constructing area, a very dangerous place. They got stuck in a water hole." He said and laughed to himself. "Come on follow me. You didn't touch any of these bottons did you?" He asked and walked onto the elevator. "only the one that was blinking," wufei said. "good. They were all false. Only the one that was blinking works. The others are for tricking the enemies. This…" dr. j said and held up his cain, "is what activates everything." He said and stood in the elevator. The others followed. Dr. j pushed the basement button and down they went. They reached the bottom and stepped off. "follow me. You don't want to get lost down here. That girl can run pretty far." Dr. j said as he walked down the hall. Once in a while he would tap on the wall with his cane. The g- boys soon found out that he could walk perfectly without it..
~~~~
"Don't worry, they should be here soon." Heero said while staring at her. She wasn't floating anymore. She was standing on her tipsy toes and holding herself. She was trying to keep warm. They have been down there for about 20-30 minutes. "I am not worried." She said acting like how syaoran would. He was so stubborn and adorable, and she knew she would miss that. "where is tomoyo?" she demanded more then asked. "dr. j took her somewhere so she could rest. Don't worry, she is in good hands." He said trying to reassure her. "good hands? Good hands!! She is not in good hands!! You are all backstabbers who couldn't save syaoran and now he's dead!! I thought we could be friends but I guess soldiers could only have friends with themselves because they stab each other's back anyway! That's why you let syaoran is dead! You didn't care if he died! Good hands? Ha! You can kiss my ass!!!" she yelled. To her that didn't make any sense but didn't care because she just wanted to blow out some steam. Heero starred at her. His face didn't show any emotion but on the inside he was confused.
Heero didn't say anything. There wasn't any point because she wouldn't listen. "im sorry sakura. There was nothing I couldn't do." He said. Sakura didn't even bother looking at him. She heard footsteps and looked up. They were coming for her. Fear struck her mind and she dived underneath the water to hide. "hey heero! Where is sakura?" quatre asked. Heero looked cold. His skin was pale and his clothes were drenched. They could hardly see them because it was very dark in the hole. He reached his hand underneath the water and pulled her up. She tried to squirm away but she was too weak. "here she is." He said and held her close to him. She began to fall asleep on his chest. She tried not to but she was too tired and he was the only thing warm in the freezing cold water. Dr. j put a part of his cane in the wall and turned. A staircase appeared in the well so they could climb out. Heero held onto her tightly and brought her out. She was now asleep. They walked out of the booby-trapped hallways and went upstairs to where tomoyo was sleeping. There was another bed where sakura could sleep. "do you have any clothing that she could where?" heero asked. She was pale and had Goosebumps running up and down her arms. "im afraid that I don't. I think a little bit of the fresh summer air will warm her up fine." the doctor said and led the downstairs. Heero took a few sheets off the bed and took it with him. Sakura was still in his arms. She was taller than most 13 years old Japanese girls. Her legs dangled when he walked. Heero glanced over and saw duo siting next to tomoyo. He understood and went downstairs and outside. It was comfortably warm only because of the colonie's season weather change. In summer the weather was always perfect. The warm felt good on Heeros soaked neck. He laid a sheet down and put sakura on top of it. He put another sheet on top of her and sat next to her as she slept. He sighed and rubbed his forehead. He was very tired so he slept sitting. About an hour later he awoken to find sakura not there. He stood up and frantically looked around. She could have escaped and went to the nearby city. In the distance he saw her and was relieved. She was sitting in a tree resting there instead. She wasn't asleep though. It seemed like she was in deep thought. He slowly walked over trying not to make a sound. She didn't notice him. "did you have a good sleep?" heero asked while looking at her. He was standing next to the trunk and resting his arms on a branch. She jumped at the sound of his unexpecting voice and glanced over. "it was fine." she said in a monotone voice. Heero leaned against the tree. "you had worried me. I thought you…ran away?" she said finishing his sentence. He didn't say anything. "don't worry I wont. I decided that I will take my fate." She said and almost smiled. She jumped off the branch. "we should get back." She said and started walking to the building. She seemed happier for some reason. He silently followed behind her. 'mabey she was just a bit cranky?' he asked himself remembering what happened before. He shrugged and kept following. When they arrived sakura walked with an almost smiling face. While she was sleeping she didn't have any ordinary dream.
~~~sakura's dream ~~~
She couldn't see anything. It was all black. She couldn't hear anything and when she tried to speak nothing came out. She felt like she was blind and deaf at the same time. "sakura…" a voice called out to her. "who's there?" she said. Her disability to speak was gone. She still couldn't see. "sakura…" it called out again. "Syaoran is that you?" she yelled in the abyss. "yup its me." He said breaking the depressing and unexpecting atmosphere. Still she couldn't see. "why cant I see you?" she asked. "well where I am from now, we don't have shapes or bodies but you still know that your you. Catch what im saying?" he said. "yes I do I think…can you see me?" she asked. "yes I can and your as beautiful as you were before." He said in a voice that had slight embarrassment. Sakura knew that he was blushing and smiled. "Listen your going to wake up soon so ill have to tell you this quick. Be nice to the gundam pilots they are not your enemy. Sakura wanted to say something but once again she couldn't speak. "I know that they told you that they were going to brainwash you and all that other stuff but it's not true. They are people that you can trust so make them your ally. And please, put a smile back on your face. You look a lot better when you smile then when you're mad." He said. She nodded. ""Will I ever see you again?" she asked. Her voice wasn't muted. "Well you won't see me but ill always be around. Please don't be sad over my death. Incase you didn't know, heaven is actually on earth and where ever people are so all of those strange creeks you hear in you room are probably a ghost. They aren't bad though. The bad ghosts turn into demons and burn in the Sun. the good ghosts can make themselves look like there original self but only the one's that loves him/her most can see him." he said. "then I will be looking forward to that." Sakura said in a happy voice. "I miss you syaoran! Although I hadnt seen you for only like, eight hours it seems like a life time!" sakura said. She could feel a knot in her throat and had to keep swallowing. " I know sakura, I miss you too. I miss being seen, being able to eat good, secret recipe sweet and sour chicken, and I miss being with you. I know someday I will meet you again. Ill only be a voice away." Syaoran said. Everything became silent again. "Sorry I have to go since your waking up. Ill see you around. Oh and tell heero that relena said hi and that she misses him. Love you" He said. "I love you too…" sakura said in a barely audible voice. Syaoran's voice faded and once again she was stuck in the empty dark. Soon after that her eyes opened. "SYAORAN!" she yelled. She took deep breaths and saw heero sleeping next to her. Sakura stood up and walked to the nearby tree to think
~~~ end dream~~~
When everyone saw her they didn't say anything. "What's with all the quiet?" sakura asked giving them all an empty look. She seemed a little happier but the dream just covered syaoran, not touya or her father. "Are you…uh ok? "Wufei asked while giving her an uncertain look. "yesi am fine. I feel tons better now." she said. 'are you sure?" quatre asked. "yes im fine. This is sakura you're talking to remember? I had a really great dream." She said and was partcially smiling. "Where is tomoyo?" she asked. "she's upstairs if you want to see her." Dr. j said and put his hands in his large lab coat pockets. "ok. Is she doing ok?" she asked and pushed the elevator button. "she has to go to a hospital to get proper treatment but I think she will be fine." he said and closed the doors to the elevator. "I wish I was there to help her. I hope that she doesn't have amnesia or something." She said while staring at the door. The elevator opened. He led her to Tomoyo's resting-place. "duo you are needed downstairs. We have to discuss something." He said. Sakura walked over to tomoyo and knelt next to Duo. "sakura are you..im fine." she said answering his unfinished question. She almost had a full smile on her face. He nodded his head in confusion and walked over to Dr. j. "sakura if you need anything press that button over there and talk in the speaker." He said. Sakura looked back and nodded. Duo followed dr. j to the elevator and went down to the lab. "We need to talk." The doctor said while stepping out. They were all just basically standing around doing nothing. "About what we are going to do with them?" trowa asked. "yes. Now heero what was your idea?" dr. j asked. "we should brainwash them and send them to adoptions centers. They well be adopted soon, I can tell." He said. He had regret while saying those words but he knew it was for the best. "now wait a sec. Heero you heard her before she doesn't want to lose her memories. I still have a loud ring in my ear from her screaming." Duo said, protesting Heero's ideas. "I Think heero is right, duo. I think it would be for the best if they just forgot everything and moved on." Quatre said trying to reason with duo. He wasn't very easy to reason with. "it is not about what we think! This is there life that we are playing with right now so they should decide. We have no right to do this to them." He said. His voice was rising. Dr. j just stood there and rubbed his chin. "I think that duo may have the better idea. They can keep their memories but where will they stay?" he asked. Heero was a little upset but more relieved. His glare wasn't as fierce. "How about they just stay with us!" duo said since no one said anything. "Shut up Maxwell. You might have won the last battle but that doesn't mean you'll win this one." Wufei said. "well actually it would be ok for them to live at my home. I think that they would be happy there with my 29 sisters." He said. Wufei shot him a glance. "that's not a bad idea." Dr. said. "Its up to sakura. She can stay where she wants, like what duo said. We have no right to decide things for them." Trowa said. "OK then let's go upstairs." Dr.j said and walked back in the elevator. When they arrived they went straight to Tomoyo's room. "sakura we need to talk." Dr. j said. "o…ok." She said and stood up. She walked out the door. "don't let what heero said before scare you. He just thought that it would be better if you had a new family and didn't remember anything. We have decided not to take away your memories. You should be glad because the only way to do this would be to bonk you on the head and hope you get amnesia or attach you to a supercomputer while your sleeping and delete them. Scarey huh?" dr. j said and waited to see what her response was. She raised an eyebrow and nodded. Heero glared at dr. j and nugded him with his elbow. " however, it is your choice to deside where you stay." Dr. j said. "oh ok. Do I have any options?" she asked. "oh um." Dr. j said and tried to remember what they were talking about before. "you could stay at quatre's mansion with his 29 sisters, you could travel with us, or you can go to the adoption center and get a set of new parents. The choice is yours." Heero said flatly. Sakura remember what syaoran said in her dream. "I think that I would like to travel with you guys." She said and for the first time in a while, fully smiled. They all had surprised looks on their faces. Even heero did. "but….why?" Duo asked in a surprised voice. "no I mean like, why do you want to come with us? We fight and stuff and we travel a lot." Duo said. "Oh it's fine. I like to travel." Sakura said and gave a reassuring smile. "ok if that's what you want." Dr. j said. "we will have to get tomoyo to a hospital before we ask her what she wants. I think we should leave now." he said. "heero get her." Dr j said. He picked her up and they went down the elevator and into a tinted window car. A few minutes later they arrived and tomoyo was brought into the emergency room. They all waited in the lounge. " I have to leave now. Ill leave the car here and ill pick up a taxi." Dr. j said. They nodded and he left. "I hope she is going to be ok." Sakura said and slouched in her seat. They were surrounded buy tons of other people. Some of them were crying and other's were silent and they looked bothered. Next to her was a baby. She was about three years old and she looked up at sakura innocently. "hey there." Sakura said and half smiled. Hi." The baby said. "what's your name?" sakura asked. "Lan-I-ta." The baby said. "Lanita?" she asked. The baby nodded. "that's a pretty name. My name is sakura." She said and rubbed the baby's hand. She looked up and saw the mother smiling at her daughter. "she is a beautiful baby. She is very friendly also." Sakura said. "Thank you." The mother said. It was obvious that the lady had a mexican accent and was most likely from the ghetto's. They werent clean but were still beautiful people. That's how most of the people were here. The had long black hair with dark skin and blue eyes. She was normal wiehgt and short in height. The baby was small also and had black hair and green eyes instead that sparkled with confusion "where is your mother, dear?" the lady asked in her mexican accent. "oh she died along time ago." Sakura said. She wasn't sad about it. "Oh im terribly sorry! What about your father is he here?" the lady asked with concern in her eyes. "my dad…well he a…he he's…" she said trying to think of some excuse. ""He had to go in the emergency room." Trowa said and put a hand on Sakura's shoulder. He figured that he looked the most like her so he would pretend to be her brother. "oh I see. im sorry for asking. Im sure that he will be fine." the lady said. "ms. Sanchez please come here. Your daughter would like to see you." The nurse said. "Well it was nice meeting you, sakura." The lady said and stood up. "Say byebye Lanita." She said. "byebye." The baby said and was carried away to see her sister. Sakura smiled and waved. "Trowa thanks." sakura said. "It's not a problem." He said. Sakura went into thought. Mabey her father was suffering underneath a big chunk of building or something? He wasn't even there when it happened! What if he is searching for her right now? Those thoughts kept running through her head. She stood up and walked over to heero. "I need you to do me a favor." Sakura said almost frantically. "what's the matter?" heero asked in a slightly concerned voice. Duo's eyebrows shot up and he smiled. "'aw look at that heero bein all protective and concerned." Duo said and grinned. "Shut up Maxwell." Wufei said and shook his head. Heero didn't even hear what duo said. "I need you to do a search on my dad. He wasn't there when it happened so he could still be out there looking for me. You can hack into files right?" sakura said. Every Chance of hope was glistening in her eyes. Her eyes werent like that before so it must have been important. Heero motioned her to talk a little quietly. "I can only hack into things if I have the password. That may take some time so ill start now." He said and brought out his cellphone and laptop. "thank you heero so much." She said and gave him a hug. Heero's body froze and his face blushed a little bit. Sakura noticed what she was doing and unlatched herself from him. "Sorry Im going back to my seat now." she said and skipped/ran back to her seat by trowa. Her face was red and she blocked it by using her hand. "Sakura Yuy?" the nurse asked. Her face turned redder. She solemnly stood up and walked over to her. "My last name is kinomoto." She mumbled. "sorry its says yuy here." She said. Heero didn't know what as going on because he was too busy concentrating. "your friend tomoyo is doing good. The surgery went fine. The concusion was very tiny so very little surgery had to be done." The nurse said. "is she awake?" sakura asked with ambission. "yes she is awake but I think that you should wait a few days before you…" the nurse said. Sakura ran past her and straight to tomoyo's room. She saw the room number on the slip. When she walked in she saw tomoyo on the bed. She was eating strawberry ice-cream and watching the food network. "tomoyo!" sakura said happily and hugged her. "sakura! What happened did? they do anything to you?" tomoyo asked. "no no If they did then I wouldn't remember you!" she said and kept hugging her. "tomoyo if they ask you where you want to go say that you want to stay with me ook?" she asked. "but why…ill explain later." She said. They entered the room shortly after sakura did. "please people get out she still needs time to rest." The nurse said and started to shove them out. She wasn't exactly weak either. "wait its fine." tomoyo said putting up a hand so the nurse could stop pushing them out. Tomoyo felt like she was ran over by a car. "are you sure?" the nurse asked. "yes I am sure." She said and laid her head back down on the pillows. "ok whatever you want ." the nurse said and lightly jogged back to the lounge. She had a lot of things to do. "ok im going to ask you a question. Do you a. want to stay with quatre's 29 sister, b. go to an adoption center, or c. cruise around the world with us." Duo said. "ummmm…whatever sakura is doing." She said and shrugged. "are you sure?" wufei asked. "yes now can you please leave. I am actually not feeling very good…at all." Tomoyo said and shut her eyes. "ok if that's what you want. byebye." Duo said with a smile and left. Tomoyo peeked an eye open and smiled widely at sakura. Sakura smiled back and closed the door.
"heero have you found anything yet?" sakura asked and walked over to him. She sat on the empty chair next to him to check out what he was doing. "nothing yet." He said and scrolled down while consentrating hard on the name's of the member's on the plane. He found out some bad news before. Her father was on an OZ aircraft, the same people that heero knew killed relena. He had lived, but now he has to know who he really is. The name kinomoto was a fake name that he gave sakura. Computer research wouldn't be able to find this one out. He was going to have to do good old fashion work. "actually sakura I have found something out. Ill tell you tonight." Heero said. He is going to have to tell her sooner or later. "excuse me, sakura yu…I mean kinomoto, do you have insurance?" the lady asked. She knew that she didn't have it. "oh welll….ummmm" she said. She wasn't sure how to answer her. "she is with me." Heero said. He handed her a card. "david gellijath(ge-ly-sh-ath)?" she said. He gave her a dead serious stare. "ok well then that's settled." The nurse said and walked away with the card in hand. "your name is not….i know. I pick pocketed it a few weeks ago. I knew it would be handy. None of these people here know who I am so I should be safe." Heero said answering sakura's unfinished question. He shut the laptop. "its already seven. I think that we should leave now." wufei said. He was eager to get out of this place. There was too much pathetic crying and saddness, it made him sick and brought back old memories. "yeah I think it's a good idea too." Quatre said. "but what about tomoyo?" sakura asked. "I am sure that she will be fine during the night. We will come back here first thing in the morning." Quatre said. Sakura nodded and stood up. They went to the car and drove back to there home. They are staying in some nice apartment building. The rooms were all painted white. It had many bedrooms, each had 2 beds. Heero stayed by himself again and the rest were with the same people. Sakura was going to stay with tomoyo when she got back. "are you guys hungry? Ill order pizza." Duo offered. "no get chinese." Wufei said. Duo lifted an eyebrow. "hey what are you looking at? We always get pizza I think we should get some other disgusting, greasy take out." Wufei said. "how about we just cook something?" sakura asked. She rarely ever got take out because either she or her father would make food. "well…uh we would if we could but none of us could cook. I don't know if heero could cook because he's always locked up in his room working." Duo said. "well I can cook. I always used to." Sakura said in a sort of disapointed voice. "well there's another problem. We don't have groceries." Duo said and opened the empty frige. " oh I see. how do you guys stay so skinny if you eat all that greasy take-out?" sakura asked. They couldn't tell if she was just joking around or being serious. She didn't even giggle. Duo shrugged. "its in the metabolism. What did those stupid teacher's teach you in that school anyway? They were too old. Old people shouldn't teach." Wufei said. "im going to get groceries then. Its not healthy to eat grease everyday." Sakura said. "wait wont you need money?" quatre asked and brought out his wallet. "no I still have some left over." Sakura said. She Had about eight dollars left. "here." Quatre said and handed her thirty dollars. "when your done shopping buy whatever you want." Quatre said and smiled. "thank-you. Ill be right back." Sakura said and walked out the door and down the hall. Heero came out of the door a few minutes later and went out the door also. "hey where are you going?" duo said while watching the tv. "im not letting her go out at night by herself. Especially not in this neighborhood." Heero said and continued walking. The store was only a few blocks away but robber's could still take her or rob her or whatever. He knew what goes on in this neighborhood and knew it wasn't safe. He quickly caught up to her by running and kept a low profile though so she wouldn't notice him. She walked in the store and grabbed a basket. She went up and down the ailes and got beef broth, carrots, celary, beef, potatoes and everything needed to make a good stew. She also got bisquick, a gallon of milk, and two boxes of cereal. She went to a checkout line and bought two hundred grand bars(the Candy bar lol) and payed for all of it. The total was 36.89. She took the baggs and left with heero following close behind.
On the sidewalk with the street light on she stopped and turned around. "heero come on out. I know that you are there." Sakura said and looked in the darkness. Her voice was kinda happy and so was her face. ' I should be happy that I have peopple who care.' Sakura said to herself and smiled. Heero got angry that she knew he was there so he didn't come out. " I don't like it when I get followed. I get nervous. If you wanted to come you should have just told me." Sakura said and put her hands on her hips. Just because she lost the cards doesn't mean that she lost all of her sixth senses. He came out with his arms crossed and an angry face. Sakura smiled but then noticed his frown. "what's the matter? Are you mad at me?" she asked in a slightly dissaointed voice. Heero lifted an eyebrow. of course he wasn't mad. That was how he always looked. "no. This is how I always look." Heero said and uncrossed his arms. "nu uh. Usually you look bored or something. Not glarey and mad. Well mabey glarey but not mad" Sakura said. Heero raised his eyebrow again. She was really confusing him. How can you look glarey and not look mad? Could she sense his feelings or something? "really?" he asked. "yeah. Is something the matter?" she asked in a concerning voice. She said down on the curb and patted the seat next to her while looking at him. He came over and sat a few inches away from her. "a few things are actually." He said and ran his hand through his rugged hair. "really? If you want to talk about it im right here. There is no-one around here to hear us." Sakura said and looked down to meet his eyes. "sakura we should go. I have a feeling that we are not alone." Heero said and stood up. He looked around the area and heard a footstep. It was faint and slow which meant someone was up to no- good. "come on." he said and pulled her up. The foot steps became more rapid. Heero picked up his pace also. Sakura was making a good effort to catch up but it didn't really matter because she was partially being dragged. She had to jump up a curb and she hit her ankle. She acted like nothing happened though. Like five seconds later they arrived at the aprtment building and he dragged sakura back up the steps. They made it to the top of the stair case and the stalker was no longer there. "are you ok?" heero asked. He wasn't even out of breath. He didn't want to hurt anyone today so he desided to just get out of there. "yeah im fine. I think im might have pulled a muscle or something." She said while holding the arm that he was dragging her by. She wasn't really out of breath either. "are you ok?" heero asked while holding her arm. He was pressing it in certain area's to see if it hurt. He looked at the wrist and saw a bruise and a brush burn. " I didn't think that I had hurt you. Im sorry." Heero said and took the bags. "no its ok. you were just looking out for me." Sakura said and smiled. She straigtened her poster and walked in the door so they wouldn't think anything had happened.. "hey look who's back soo soon! What happened to your arm?" duo asked as he walked over. "oh nothing! I was almost kidnapped but heero saved me." Sakura said and smiled while covering the markings with her sleeve. She could feel the blood going onto her shirt. "oh I see. awww heero…shut up Maxwell. You would have done the same." Wufei said and rolled his eyes. Duo stuck his tongue out at him. "I think that your going to have to get take out. I don't have good axcess with my arm." Sakura said giving an apologetic look. Heero kinda hid behind the frige while putting the food items away. "oh don't worry its fine! ill just order some chinese its no big deal." Duo said and picked up the phone. "where are quatre and trowa?" heero asked. "they had missions to go to. They said that they would call if they needed anything." Duo said and blocked the reciever. The person answered in chinese. "wufei can you come here for a sec." Duo said. Wufei grunted and came over. Duo shoved the reciever in his hand. "He speaks chinese." Duo said. Wufei nodded. He started talking in a different language and hung up the phone. "what did youy get?' duo asked. A few boxes of lo mein and fried rice and a few boxes of general Tso's chicken." Wufei said and said back down on the couch. He was watching the food network for some strange reason. "food network? I love this show." Sakura said and walked to the couch in a strange way. Her ankle was injured. "are you ok? Why is there blood on your shirt?" wufei asked as he saw her limp fastly to the couch. "oh im fine just a few bruises and I little scratch." sakura said and waved it off. It was rachel ray with thirty minute meals. About fifteen minutes later wufei checked his watch and stood up. "im getting the food." He yelled. "when I get back I expect you to be ready for bed. Young children shouldn't stay up past eight." Wufei said. Sakura looked up at him and glared and then looked over at heero who was glaring at him also. Wufei notice her stare was somewhere else instead of him and turned around. he saw heero glaring. Wufei glared back and had somewhat of a glaring contest with him. That lasted a few minutes but he lost and sighed fitfully. "fine do whatever you want. Im outta here." He said and walked out the door. Sakura smiled. "don't listen to him. He was raised with a strict chinese family and a strict kung fuu instructor. If he bothers you let me know." Heero said and began walking to his room. Sakura nodded her head and laid down on the couch. Today was such a miserable day. It was eating her up and tried hard not to show it. It was obvious that it was though. She thought that she was going to have mental issues in the future but dismissed those thoughts and kept watching the food network. Ten minutes later he returned with a huge box of food. Each person got a box of each, including sakura. "im not sure if I can eat all of this." Sakura said in an uneasy way. The containers werent exactly small. 'even your metabolism cant break up all of this stuff.' She said to herself and looked down at her meal. It looked and smelled good but sakura could only wonder what it would do to her small stomach. An image popped up in her head. She was as fat as a balloon and she had tons of backfat. (AHH!! EVIL BACKFAT!) "if you cant finish it we will put it in the garbage can." Wufei said. Sakura looked around. There wasn't even a garbage can. "he means me." Duo said and proudly pointed a finger at himself. "oh ok." She said and dug in. "wait what about heero?" sakura sked." He doesn't really like to eat with us." Duo said. "o I see." she said and continued eating. She had a little bit of each and gave the rest to duo who ate it all. "I think that I will go and give heero his dinner." Sakura said and grabbed the cartons. "go ahead. Im getting washed up and going straight to bed." Wufei said and stood up. He put the cartons in the sink. "yeah im gonna go to sleep too. Night sakura." Duo said and walked into his room. "good night!" sakura said happilly. When they both left she delivered the food. She knocked on the door quietly. "whos there." She heard a voice demand. "it's sakura." She said. Heero unlocked the door and let her in. He closed the door behind her. "I brought you dinner." Sakura said and sat it on the empty desk. It only had his laptop on it which he was typing on. "thanks." he said and looked over at her while she set it down. Her rist was worse in the light. It was bleeding a little andput a little stain on her shirt. It was still noticable though. 'I guess I forgot how powerful I was.' He said to himself and glared at the relfection of himself in the monitor. He closed the top and walked into his own private bathroom to get a rag with hot water. Sakura not knowing what to do just sat there. "let me see your wrist." Heero said letting out his open hand. She hesitantly put hers in his. Her face turned a light shade of red. He delicatly cleaned her cut. "you wanted to tell me something before, right?" sakura asked. The awkward silence was freaking her out. "yeah." He simply said and kept cleaning the already clean injury. He had to think of the proper way to say this. 'sakura your father was on the plane with the people that killed relena.' That would not be good at all. "I have some good news and some bad news. The good news is that your father is alive. The bad news is that he had made a fake identity. Your last name is not kinomoto. We still have yet to figure that out. He could have been working with Oz for all this time." Heero said. Sakura needed some time to register this. 'does this mean that he abondoned me to die at the battle sight? What is my real name? She asked herself. Her mouth opened but no words came out. It was like she was in shock. She didn't even move. The once worried feeling she had now turned into hate. She thought her father loved her but he was her worst enemy. The enemy that killed relena. The enemy that killed syaoran. "soo he was with the group of assasigns that killed relena?" sakura asked. "I have no proof of that yet. I have to do some work to find out his real identity before I go and frame any one. He might just be taken as a prisoner or something. I don't think that he was away all that time just to be an architect.(a/n: is that what he is?)" Heero said. "He couldn't be a prisoner. He had these secret files that I werent aloud to look in. Once I did and he yelled at me. That was the first time he ever did." Sakura said and laced her fingers. She was staring at nothing. " I remember part of what I read and I ignored it. Now I understand what's going on. he did this on purpose. He wanted us to be gone, touya and I. Half of his wish had been delived" sakura said and looked down at that ground. "I think you should rest at least a little. You had a long day." Heero said trying to make her take a shower and rest." I think that's a good idea. Good night heero." She said in a mnotone voice and walked out the door. Heero grabbed his gun and jumped out the window. He was off to do a mission.
"I cant believe it. My own father…the enemy?" Sakura said and stared blankley at her reflection. She was still in her regular clothes because she didn't have pajama's. She was brushing her hair. "are you ok?/" duo asked and opened the door slightly. "yes…" she said in a voice as light as air. "oh no your not." He said and stepped in. "helo?? Sakura are you in there?" duo said and snapped his fingers infront of her. She still stared at her reflection. Duo shook her shoulders and looked at the mirror with her. "Yeah see that's sakura kinomoto. The prettiest girl next to hild…I mean uh…the prettiest girl I know." Duo said"my last name is not kinomoto…" she said in the same voice. Duo picked her up, opened the sheets and tucked her in. "I think a little bit of rest is what you need." Duo said. He covered her and walked into Heero's room. He wasn't there. "HEERO YOU STUPID!!" duo said. He traumatized her! He walked back into Sakura's room to see if she was sleeping. She wasn't and was still staring at nothing. He got a cup and filled it with water in the bathroom. He walked back in and dumped it on her. She snapped back to reality. "wha?" she said and noticed that she was soaked. "duo you dork! Look what you did!" sakura said and held she shirt out so he wouldnt be able to see through it. He gave her a big hug. She was practically suffacating. "don't do that you scared me! I thought you were traumtized or something!" duo said. Sakura patted his back and tried to get away from his grasp. "uh…duo I cant….breath." she said in a normal but hesitant voice. She was used to getting hugged like this from yukito. "sorryi didn't know what I was doing." Duo said and released her from his grasp. "its fine." she said and smiled while taking in a deep breath of air. The phone rang. "ill get it." Duo said and jogged inot the kitchen. Since sakura was wet she decided to take a shower so she went in the bathroom and took one. The bathroom was simple and clean.(a/n: did you ever hear that song simple and clean? Its by Utada Hikaru and its very good^_^ sorry I had to say that) It was white with a large mirror and a large bathtub. A few minutes later she came out.She came out with duo's clothes because he probably left them there for her to where.. She brushed her hair out and went to sleep. On the phone duo sounded happy. 'I guess he's talking to that hilda girl.' Sakura said to herself and smiled. Slowly she began to fall asleep.
~~~heero~~~
He was in outer space. Once again he has to find imformation about the enemy but this time He didn't really mind it. He had to try not to get caught since there where dolls securing the area. 'this is going to be harder then I thought.' Hhe said to himself and began to think of a plan. It was almost impossible. Each entry was sealed so he was going to have to blast through. He had to find out if the dolls were computer operated. If they were he wouldnt have a problem. He pushed a button labeled HS and a screen popped in front of him. There was no sign of body heat in any of the mobile dolls which was a good sign. Now all he had to do was reprogram them. He atached his laptop to the gundams controlled and atached a chip insede of the computer. Duo stole it on his last mission there. It is used to give commands to the auto-piloted dolls. It was going to take a lot of time because he was going to have to unprogram them one by one but the first thing that he had to do was crash the main computer. Without that the dolls start attaking each other and everything getts messed up. That would take a long time for most people but for heero it would only take one or two hours. He cracked his knuckles and began to work.
