Chapter 5: Traitor
*~*~*~* Sage's POV:
The third afternoon I spent with Diov was a quite peaceful one. A couple hours after we had set off that morning, we reached a river, where we stayed the rest of the morning just talking about anything. We both washed up, one at a time with the other off hunting for lunch. And then had lunch by the water.
After walking about an hour after leaving the river I decided to break the silence, "Diov? Is it going to take longer now since we stopped at the river for the entire morning?"
"Not that much longer. I had been planning on resting there for a couple hours anyway." It seemed he had been trying to avoid eye-contact with me ever since our second morning together.
Nearing sundown, we ran into a small group of some kind of creature Diov labeled as orcs. Disgusting creatures. There were only about four of them and Diov dispensed of three of them quickly. The last one came after me, and before I knew what was happening, I put my hands up in defense and the thing exploded.
A second later, a small fairy appeared and started yelling at Diov for no noticeable reason.
"What?!" Diov swatted at it, seemingly annoyed.
"Twinkle, Twinkle, Twinkle!" Is all I heard from it.
"Because, this is the path I chose to take her on!!" I guess Diov understood it.
Their conversation went on for a couple of minutes while I stared at the scene in front of me, more at the remains of the orc that had attacked me, before the little fairy sped off. "Damn fairy!" Diov muttered under his breath.
"What was that about? What happened to that?" I pointed to the exploded orc and then made eye contact with Diov.
"Follow me, change of plans." He grabbed my arm and pulled me in the direction we came from.
"What?!" I wanted to know what was going on.
*~*~*~* Syaoran's POV:
It felt like we were headed towards the evil I had felt from my kingdom. It was stronger then ever. Yue and Ruby agreed with me that this was a bad direction to be traveling. After a couple hours of walking quickly in a direction my instincts told me was a very bad direction, Princess Sakura's face lit up as if a wave of peace had rolled over her.
"Why are you all of a sudden happy?" Princess Tomoyo inquired.
"I can feel her!" Princess Sakura smiled, her emerald green eyes flashing.
I too could feel a distinct, new power suddenly, as if it had just been released. "What is that, Princess Sakura?" I looked into those deep pools of emerald.
"Drop the 'Princess'!" She snapped back then softened her tone again, "Remember, we are supposed to be unknown like this! But, to answer your question, that is my sister, Sage."
"You…have a sister?" Eriol blurted out before I could.
"Yes." She waved to us to be quiet, "We'll make tonight's camp here. She's headed straight here…with…him!"
"Who's him?" Yue was becoming concerned.
She didn't answer him and with the look on Sakura's face, no one questioned her further or on why we were making camp here instead of going on more until we met up with her sister. As it was already, the sun had been down for about half an hour.
As we sat in the clearing the girls stayed on one side while we were on the other side. "Can you believe what our mothers are doing to us? I have to marry that snot Tomoyo while you get to marry Sakura!"
"Yes. I wish I were the one marrying Tomoyo and I know that you wish you were to marry Sakura. Am I right, cute descendent." He smiled at me, an evil grin on his face.
"Yeah." I mumbled.
Suddenly, a bright light engulfed the entire clearing, lighting it up as if it were day.
"WHAT THE HELL?!?!" Everyone exclaimed simultaneously.
