"Talking"
(Me Talking)
They both stood at a cliff and looked down at the water, they heard the guards looking for them and they held each other's hands and jumped.
The guards look down at the two bodies floating down the river. "Well no one can survive that jump. We will tell the prince that they are both dead." Said one of the guards looking over the cliff.
Syaoran tried to get back up to the air but his body was trapped under the water. Little did they know that a waterfall was near.
Sakura got her head above water and searched for Syaoran, "Syaoran! Where are you!"
She tried to stay above water and look for Syaoran, she turned around and her head hit a branch and she passed out and the current pulled her under.
Syaoran drastically tried to get above water and saw a branch above and grabbed it pulling him out form the water. He looked down the river and saw a waterfall and searched for Sakura and saw her body floating towards the waterfall.
He swam towards her as fast as he could barely grabbing her hand. He tried to swim up stream but the current was to strong and was pulling them closer and closer towards the waterfall. Syaoran knew they would not make the fall, they would both die.
He kept trying to swim to get out of the current but it was no use, "I'm sorry Sakura, I failed to save you like I promised."
But someone grabbed them and pulled their bodies out of the water, "They look pretty bad."
"I hope they will be ok." Said a woman helping the young male.
Syaoran had fainted before he could see who had saved them.
Two Days Later
Syaoran lifted his head up quickly and looked around the same room he was in. Only one thing came into his mind, Sakura. He looked around and did not see her and then a young girl around his age came into the room. "Hi, my name is Tomoyo. You are lucky, most people would not live that current." (Did I tell you their ages? If I did not then they (S+S) are seventeen, hope I did not all ready make up a different age. And E+T are 19.)
"Where is Sakura?" he asked.
"The girl that was with you? She is in the back room you want to see her? She looks pretty beaten up, took one to the head."
Syaoran jumped out of the bed quickly and he felt a sharp pain in his leg, "You really shouldn't walk."
"I have to see Sakura."
"If you insist." Syaoran followed her to the back room and saw the limp body of Sakura lying in the bed.
He went up to and held her hand, "Sakura please be ok."
"She has been healing quite good, I do expect that she will wake up soon. I did not expect you to wake up today though."
Syaoran
looked down at Sakura, "Where are we?"
"A small town called Wakefield. Why?"
"Wakefield is an independent colony right?"
"Hai, how did you know? We are independent by the guards do come and check on us, the King wants to rule the all of the colonies but the main ruler of our colony will never let that happen."
"Good the king-to-be is a selfish bastard."
Tomoyo smiled, "Hai he is and that is why we will not be ruled by him, his father is the same way. I did expect the son to be just like the father."
"Will you expected right, because he is."
Syaoran kissed Sakura's forehead softly and walked out of the room with Tomoyo. "Who was the one who pulled us out of the water."
"That was Eriol, he is my husband."
"You look like your seventeen and you are all ready married?"
"You don't know the law? You are suppose to be married before your sixteenth birthday or else you will sent out of the colony."
"That seems stupid."
"Not
if you think about it. Our ruler wants the population to grow, so if he king
attacks us we will be able to fight back. No one has been thrown out of our
colony. You are not married are you?"
"No, but me and Sakura have no place to go that is safe."
"I will ask no questions about your past, that is yours to keep to your self, you two can stay here. Since you have to be married take these rings, you can act like you married. You two seem like you are pretty close."
"We are pretty close but maybe I should ask her about this."
"Just put it on for now. It is a sign of marriage and let me tell you, most of the young girls here will be all over you. If you wear the ring they will leave you alone. Everyone here is looking for a mate before their birthdays."
Syaoran look the ring and placed it on his ring finger and sighed, "And to think I never thought about marriage."
Tomoyo giggled, "well your married now, no time to waste thinking about it any more. The inspectors will be in here soon. Go an put this on Sakura's finger before they get here."
"Inspectors?"
"They are guards from the kingdom looking for any criminals or trust passers. They always come in here acting like the own the whole town."
Syaoran sat down next to Sakura and took her hand and held it, "Sakura I know that we have not known each other for long but I would do anything to save you and if this is one way then I have to take it. Please don't be mad at me when you wake up." He placed the ring around her finger and it started shinning brightly his had her name craved in it, Sakura's had Syaoran's name in carved in it.
Tomoyo looked threw the door and smiled. The door was opened and Eriol came in with some guards, "Welcome." She said shortly as they looked around the home.
"Are there any one else in here?"
"Yes, my brother-n-law and his husband are in the back room." Said Tomoyo showing them to the back room.
"How old are they, they are both seventeen." Said Tomoyo looking at Syaoran holding Sakura's hand tightly.
"Their names?"
Tomoyo thought quickly, "Li Ying-fa and Xiao-lang. My sister-n-law fell ill and hit her head and they came to life with us."
"I see, thank you for your time." Said the guard walking out the door with the others.
Tomoyo sighed, "As I said before I don't need to know your past but it seems you needed knew names."
"Hai, we did. How did you know?"
She only smiled, "This is my husband Eriol."
"Thank you for saving us."
"It is really no problem."
"It seems that you did not lie Tomoyo dear."
"I didn't lie about what?"
"About him being your brother-n-law."
She looked at him confused, "What do you mean?"
Syaoran looked up at Eriol and said, "Because Eriol is my brother."
Hahahahahaha got you there! Eriol and Syaoran are brothers? Why is Eriol here and not at the town where Syaoran once lived? Will Sakura wake up? What was up with those glowing rings? Does Tomoyo know who they are? A princess-to-be on the run and her savoir, a young man who was suppose to be a slave for the king-to-be. Next chapter you will find out Syaoran's past. Please R+R!
