Previous Chapter

Syaoran felt tired and leaned against the smooth black rock. Before he fell asleep he thought about the letter he had to send to the previous town. And also the extreme Sakura who was only sleeping 5 meters away form him. He held the gun in his callused hand; he took out all the bullets and set it on safety.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sakura peered through half open eyes. She looked up at the sky the sun was raising. The beautiful orange, red, and yellow colours splashed all over the sky, like a painting. She sat up and noticed something was hugged around her body. She took it off and shivered, it was a blanket.

Sakura-"A blanket?"

She peered at the cover and noticed the designs on it. The designs of peony flowers stitched into it. She finally noticed two symbols spelling, S.L.

Sakura-"S.L??? I know those initials. Syaoran!" She looked around for him. She stood up shivering a bit and placed the blanket on her self. She saw Tomoyo and Eriol still nuzzled against each other sleeping soundly. She gazed over to the large black rock she saw Syaoran crouched down with his hat covering his eyes. She thought she heard him say something.

"SNORE!"

Sakura-"Shit." She jumped.

Sakura went over to her horse Tomoyo and pat her on the head. She looked over at Syaoran's horse.

Sakura-"You seem a little worn out." Eriol just snorted at her. She noticed a certain calmness of Syaoran when he slept but she also noticed his strength. Through his white shirt she could see muscles, abs. She had a sudden urge to touch him.

Syaoran stirred a little and rubbed his strong arms. He stretched his arms and yawned, he noticed Sakura sitting down beside the horses. She was wearing his blanket he smiled.

Syaoran-"I hope you weren't too cold last night."

Sakura-"Why did you give me your blanket?"

Syaoran-"Cause.

Sakura-"."

Syaoran-"I wanted to. that's all.?" He blushed shades of red and pulled his hat down lower to his face.

Syaoran-"Get your horse ready, we're leaving for the closet town."

Sakura-"That's where I was heading before."

Syaoran whispered under his breath. "I know."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sakura-"C'mon Tomoyo, get off you're boyfriend."

Tomoyo seemed to become a little pink under her white colouring. She jumped up onto Tomoyo.

Syaoran pulled Eriol and jumped up onto him.

Syaoran-"Stay close."

'Stay close?' Sakura thought.

Most of the ride was quite, Sakura admired the scene and Syaoran. She felt feelings for him, but she didn't know why. Sure he was handsome, strong.OH HELL NO!!! SAKURA YOU'RE WIPING OUT!!! I NEED A DRINK.

Syaoran finally broke the silence.

Syaoran-What's in the rotting old bag of yours?" He knew the answer but he just wanted to test her honesty.

Sakura-"Something I owe someone."

Syaoran wasn't sure how to react to that answer; the money could be to owe some one.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sakura saw a light haze and a town. They made it! Finally she could get her drink.

Sakura rode a little closer to Syaoran, she felt safer around him.

Syaoran-"Hey I have to go do some.unfinished business."

Sakura-"Alright, I'll be in the bar."

Syaoran-"Th..b..a.ar?"

Sakura-"Well ya. we all need a little drink some time right?"

Syaoran-"Yeah. be careful in there."

Sakura-"I'd feel safer with my gun you know." She tried to hide her mischievous smile.

Syaoran-"That's ok. I'll be there in 5 minutes anyway."

Sakura rode over to the front of the bar. She tied Tomoyo up and where she could get a drink some water.

She walked into the bar. She fixed up her hat to cover her emerald eyes. She didn't want attention. She saw 3 huge men fighting over a piece of jerky. The bar had old pictures of women all covered up and ketchup at every table.

Sakura-"Men.animals"

She walked up to the bar tender and sat down at a stool.

Sakura-"You're strongest alcohol."

Bar Tender-"Sure."

Sakura saw the shot glass slide over to her, she picked up and drank it in one gulp.

She gazed around the room; one of the 3 guys was on the ground crying. He was real fat and dirty looking.

Sakura-"Worse then animals."

Sakura noticed a tall man was walking over to her. She tensed a little trying to look larger. She looked at him trying not to turn around. He was wearing a white cow boy hat, brown leather boots, light blue pants, a black top, she couldn't make out his face until he came closer.

He sat in front of; he tried to take her hat off.

Sakura-"Fuck off."

"Oooh.feisty are we?"

Sakura noticed his gray eyes, thin lips and black hair. She didn't like him.at all.

"What your name pretty eyes?"

'He must've noticed my yes when I was looking around the room. DUMB ASS!' She mentally beat herself up.

Sakura-"What's yours?" She smiled trying to look interested.

"Tenkai."

Sakura-". o.O ok."

Tenkai-"What's your baby?"

Sakura was wishing Syaoran were here to kick this guys ass. Tenkai put his hand up to her face and tried to touch her. She pulled away quickly.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~

Syaoran walked into a food store. He walked up to the store clerk and asked him for a piece of paper and a pencil.

S.T (stand for store clerk)-"What for young man?"

Syaoran-"I need to write something to the other town."

S.T-"Here yas go."



*On The Letter*

I HAVE COBRA. SHE'S WITH ME; I'M IN CHERRY BLOSSOM CITY. COME IN 2 DAYS, SHE DOESN'T SEEM VERY BAD. DON'T BRING THAT MEILING GIRL PLEASE!

SYAORAN

Syaoran- "Can you send this for me?"

S.T-"Sure. Anything else you want?"

Syaoran-"Yeah, you got some water, matches, food?"

S.T-"That's what this store is for right?"

Syaoran-"Yeah."

Syaoran went to get some supplies he needed, he thought of Sakura. 'I hope she's ok in that ruff place.'

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sakura-"Hey! Stop touching me!"

Tenkai-"You trying to stop me.baby?"

Sakura noticed that almost all the men were drunk and she had no gun to blow his brains with.

The front door burst open, a tall man at least 6 foot 4 was standing at the door. Sakura's heart lightened up, she saw his amber eyes being reflected in the sunlight.

Tenkai made his hand trying to grab her breast she slapped him.

"SLAP!"

Syaoran saw this and went over to Sakura. He moved his toothpick to the left side of his mouth.

Syaoran-"Bartender, set me a tequila."

Syaoran drank it in one shot. He walked over to Sakura and a man that was about his size. He saw the man drooling on her lap. He tapped his shoulder.

Tenkai-"Can't you see I'm busy!"

Syaoran let out a left blow of his hand and the man fell to the ground.

Sakura-"Took you long enough."

Syaoran-"Sorry, I got some groceries." He showed her the brown bag and smiled.

They both walked out of the bar talking. Sakura giggled.

Sakura-Yeah you see his ugly drunk-ass face?"

Syaoran-"Yeah." He felt odd being near her.

Sakura felt different, she felt happy that some one cared for her.

Syaoran-"We have no where to stay."

Sakura-"Don't worry! My uncle has a motel around this place I'll take you there."

They both jumped on their horses riding beside each other to Sakura's uncle's place.
