Thank you for the reviews! I love reading all of them.
Fujitaka paced up and down the throne room. His shoes echoed as they made contact with the stone floor. People watched him silently.
"How could she have done something as rash as running away?!" Fujitaka questioned for the billionth time that night, "And just how did she leave the castle gates without being noticed!?"
He continued to mumble to himself until his head shot up and he announced loudly, "Tell a messenger to deliver this message to all the towns! Anyone who can find my daughter and her two friends will be greatly rewarded!"
Yelan shook her head softly. Fujitaka was being as rash as his own daughter. She quietly left the throne room and decided to investigate the situation herself. She knew Sakura had magic and that her escape probably wasn't because she was good a running away.
Yelan saw Chiharu walking down the hall. She took this as a chance to ask a few questions.
Chiharu sighed, "I don't see why she didn't ask me to come along. I would have gone in a heartbeat. Then again, Sakura has always been closer to Meiling and Tomoyo. Always talking about cards, but whenever I came into the room they would stop."
Yelan frowned. Cards? It can't be. The Clow Cards were hidden. Even she didn't know their whereabouts. Only HE did. They couldn't be found. Or could they? ~*~
Sakura felt a chill run down her back and she shivered. Unfortunately for her, she stepped on a twig while doing so.
The hare that Syaoran was aiming an arrow at looked up and quickly hopped away. Syaoran spun around and glared at Sakura, "Look what you did! Why did you insist on coming anyway? You're only getting the way!"
Meiling frowned, "Please don't yell. You'll scare away the prey... Sakura hasn't hunted before, she's new to these types of things."
Syaoran's glare intensified, "Well then she shouldn't have come! It doesn't matter if I yell, she'll just scare away anything we come close to!"
Sakura, who's eyes had been hidden by her hair the whole time, quietly said, "I'm sorry. I had one of those feelings when it seems like someone is talking about you."
Syaoran angrily said, "That didn't give you right to scare the prey away!"
"Stop it! She didn't mean it ok? Just let it go!" Meiling said as she too began to get mad.
Sakura looked up. Meiling and Syaoran quickly stopped bickering. Sakura's eyes were red as tears slid down her cheeks and fell to the ground soundlessly.
"I'm sorry. You guys can go hunting while I go back to camp. I'll leave..." with that Sakura took off and ran as fast as her legs could carry her.
"Now look what you did!" Meiling said angrily to Syaoran, "She running opposite of the camp site! Go after her!"
Syaoran glared at her, "She's not my problem! It's her fault if she gets lost!"
"Is that so? Well, I must have been so stupid to ask someone like you! Someone without a heart! Sakura is a sensitive person! If you're mean to her she'll feel like she was the one who did something wrong! But I guess you wouldn't care, being the jerk you are!" Meiling retorted.
Meiling began to run after Sakura when Syaoran stopped her, "Fine! I'll go after her. Go back to camp!"
Meiling opened her mouth to retort back, but Syaoran stared at her, "Just go back. I'll find her," he whispered.
Meiling closed her mouth and nodded. She left and went to go back to the camp. ~*~
Sakura ran blindly through the woods. Branches of trees and brushes brushed past her, giving her scratches that strung badly. She paid no heed to them she just ran. She ran until she couldn't run anymore. She stopped and fell. She simply put her face in her hands and began to cry. Her ankle was positioned in an odd angle as she sat there.
"Sakura, we're lost..." Kero said as he flew from her pocket, "Let's turn back."
Sakura sat on the ground sobbing, "Just leave me alone!"
"Sakura, come on! It's going to be dark soon," Kero persisted.
Sakura shook her head and continued to cry. Kero frowned. He knew she wouldn't budge. He hovered silently in the air and decided he should go for help, "Your ankle... It's twisted. I'm going to go for help. I'll be back. Don't move."
Kero flew off into the woods looking for help. Though at the moment Sakura didn't really notice.
'Why did I even run off like that? What was I thinking?' Sakura thought sadly as tears ran down her cheeks. ~*~
Syaoran kneeled down and touched the dirt on the ground. He narrowed him eyes when he saw footprints clearly marking the dirt. He stood back up and touched a broken branch. Oh yeah, she definitely had been running through here. He decided after this whole ordeal was over, he'd show her some decent survival skills. After all, he was having no trouble tracking her down.
He followed the footprints and broken greenery around him until he heard sobbing. Guilt suddenly gnawed at him as he saw Sakura sitting there with tears streaking her face.
Not quite sure of what to do, he kneeled down beside her, "Are you okay?"
Sakura simply turned her head away making Syaoran feel even worse.
"I... I'm sorry... I guess I was a little mad about being dragged onto some quest to get some treasure and I took it out on you. I suppose I was looking for the first thing to go wrong so I could find fault in the whole thing," Syaoran said as he tried to make her feel slightly better.
He furrowed his eyebrows and sighed, "Won't you even look at me?"
Sakura turned to face him, "I'll accept your apology. But you have to promise to nicer to all of the group."
Syaoran's face contorted from a look of regret to a small smile, "I'll try."
Sakura's heartbeat began to race, "You have to pinky-promise."
Syaoran sweat dropped, "Fine, pink-promise."
They hooked pinkies. Sakura smiled, "You're nice."
"I'm only nice when I did something wrong," Syaoran said as he looked the other way.
"Sure whatever you say. Anyway, we should get back," Sakura said as she stood up. Or at least tried to anyway. As soon as she put weight on her ankle, pain shot up her leg. That caused her to fall forward. Syaoran quickly stood up and caught her.
Sakura blushed from embarrassment, "Sorry."
Syaoran look at her ankle, "It looks twisted. You won't be able to walk on it."
"How will we get back then- HOE!" Sakura said as Syaoran picked her up as if she weighed as much as a feather.
"Wh-what are you doing?" Sakura asked nervously.
"How else will we get back?" Syaoran questioned with a frown.
Sakura couldn't think of anything to say, so they kept walking. ~*~
Meiling walked back to the camp wondering if she had done the right thing. Syaoran did seem sorry for what he did, but still...
She walked back to the camp wondering when she suddenly felt something crash into her head.
"What the- Oh! Kero! What are you doing? Where's Sakura?" Meiling said angrily.
"Sakura! She has a twisted ankle. I went to get help! Where's the brat who scared her away?!" Kero said urgently.
"He went looking for her," Meiling responded as dread filled her.
"WHAT!? Why did you let him?" Kero screeched.
"I-"
"Never mind! Let go find them!" ~*~
Eriol looked up at the sky, " The sun is setting soon. Where are they?"
Tomoyo looked up as well, "I don't know... What if something happened to them? I'm nervous..."
Eriol looked at her, "Me too. Me too..."
~*~
He stared at the figures of Sakura and Syaoran in the mirror, "I've found him... It's surprises me... Just how well he can hide."
He smirked, "Well, he can't hide now."
He placed his hands together and began to chant.
The portal began to form in the mirror's reflection. Monsters began to step out of it.
The three groups were attacked.
~*~
Meiling glared at beast that stood before her. It was a mutated wolf. Foam dripped from its mouth at it stared at her with bloodlust reflecting in its eyes.
Kero transformed into his lion like form. The wolf charged. Kero released a flaming fireball from his mouth. The wolf jumped over it and tried to pounce on Meiling. Meiling turned and faced the opposite way. She jumped backward as the wolf landed. It barely missed her.
"Hey! Get on my back!" Kero yelled.
Meiling nodded and jumped onto Kero's back. Kero turned charged the wolf. He successfully hit and killed the wolf. Unfortunately they fell through the portal while doing so.
Meiling screamed as they fell.
~*~
Eriol guarded Tomoyo as the mutated lion circled them. It lunged to pounce them. Eriol grabbed Tomoyo as he flung to the side. He got up and grabbed one of the two swords that rested on the ground near the tent.
Tomoyo screamed as the lion began to circle her. She stood frozen in spot as the lion pounced. Eriol quickly stabbed the lion before it could reach her.
The lion roared angrily and landed right in front of her. It and pounced onto Eriol.
Eriol moved his head every time it tried to bite it. He could feel the lion's claw digging into his skin and winced. If only he could reach sword....
As he winced the lion drove down to bite him. Eriol shut his eyes and waited for the pain. Instead he felt a large weight drop onto him. He opened eyes to see the lion laying on him; dead. Tomoyo held his bloody sword awkwardly in her hands as she panted.
"Are you okay!?"
Eriol could only stare and nod, "Yes. Thanks Madison."
~*~
Syaoran dove as a bolt of lightning almost hit him. He bit his lip as he felt Sakura's weight fall onto him.
"Oh my gosh! I'm sorry!" Sakura said.
Syaoran staggered up, "Wait here!"
He glared at the large mutated bird that had shot the lightning bolt. He grabbed his bow and arrows. He took aim and an arrow. The bird screeched angrily and shot lightning at him. He dodged.
The bird screeched angrily again. It shot another lightning bolt. This time it was aimed at Sakura. Syaoran ran and took the hit. He fell to the ground; unconscious. Sakura couldn't do a thing as she nervously stared at the large bird.
The bird flapped its large wings. A large gust of wind blew them into the portal. The bird flew in as well.
They were falling. The portal was leading them somewhere. They fell as openings to other portals were surrounding them. Sakura saw the bird flying toward them. She quickly called upon the shot and arrow cards.
The bird fell. Sakura's eyes widened as she realized that it would crush both of them. She summoned the fly card and flew into one of the many portals.
They were falling. This time they weren't inside a portal. They were in the outside world. They fell into a brook. Sakura struggled against the current. She pulled herself and Syaoran out of the water. She gasped and wheezed as she collapsed next to him. Her ankle was now throbbing with worse pain she had ever felt.
She struggled and kneeled. She put her hands above Syaoran and tried to heal him. She managed to heal the worse injuries. She was now exhausted and drained of energy.
She fell and blacked out, but not before hearing a voice yell, "Brother!" ~*~
Well, they are now separated. That gives a lot of possibilities, right? ^_^ I'll update in a week. Read and Review. After all, that's what I strive for.
