Syaoran woke up early the next morning, got dressed, and headed, along with his crew,
towards the tomb.
"Mr. Li, sir, what do you think we will discover?"
"I don't have any idea Yotaka."
They entered the tomb with silence out of respect for the deseaced.
"This way." he pointed, after lighting a torch.
They followed him until they came to coffins proped upright, with the image of a man and girl on them.
The girl seemed to be a child-sized one.
"Should we open them?"
"Yes. The man's first."
"Yes sir." they said, gently opening the old dusty coffin.
The door slowly crept open to reveal a man wrapped in the bandages that he had
been wrapped in so long ago.
"These bandages seem to be about..I'd say about 1,000 years old." said Yotaka.
"They are older than that. I'd say about 2,000 years." said Syaoran, examining a loose piece of wrapping.
"Close the casket." Syaoran said, walking over to the girl's.
"Sir, look what we found!" exclaimed one of his crewmen, who was running up to him with something in his hands.
"What is it?"
The man panted and then replyied, "It seems to be an old medalian, with the symbol of a cherry blossom on it, and the symbol for a high ruler, especially a princess."
"May I see it?"
"Yes sir." the man said, handing over the priceless treasure.
"It's of a princess alright. I wonder if..."
"You wonder if what sir?"
"Open the girl's casket."
"Yes sir."
The casket revealed a short girl, wrapped up tightly, arms laying on her chest.
"I wonder if this is the princess the inscription said..." murmered Syaoran.
"Sir?"
"Nothing..Examine the other parts of this room, see if there's anything else."
"Yes sir." they said as they scattered about.
Syaoran took the amulet and gently placed it around the mumified princess, with the cherry blossom facing him.
'It suits her.' he thought.
Suddenly, the mummy let out a long moan.
"Who has awoken me?" came a softly sweet voice.
Syaoran's eyes were big with shock and fear.
"I-I-I-I did." he stuttered.
"Thank you for freeing me from my long slumber. I must return the favor to you somehow."
'So this is what the inscription ment....if the amulet was placed around her neck, she'd come back to life!"
"What is your name, kind sir?"
"Syaoran Li." he said, eyes still wide open, focusing on the mummy, whose eyes were still closed tight.
"Mine is Sakura. I was the princess of an Egyptian king oh so long ago. He passed on, then they placed a spell on me that I would not awake until my amulet was returned, and you did so!"
she said, revealing her bright emerald green eyes for the first time.
"I am honored to be in your presence." he smiled.
"Could you please, if it shall not be trouble for you, to help me. I would so dearly like to live again!"
Syaoran stood back to think for a moment. What would his crew say? He'd have to somehow keep her a secret until he could return to Japan...but then where would she go??
"I will do what I can."
"Oh Syaoran! Thank you!" she said, hugging him with her stiff bandage-wrapped arms.
"First, we must get you out of those bandages."
"I agree." she said.
"I will get you back to my tent first....somehow...."
'How can I get her back to my tent....?..I've got it!'
"Here, slip my coat and hat on until we get back to my tent."
"As you wish." she said, slipping on his brown coat and overly large hat.
He walked her out of there, but not without being seen.
"What's wrong with this young man?" asked Risowski.
"He's inhailed too much dust, so I am going to take him to my tent to wash up, and then to town for fresher air."
"Okay, be back before sundown though."
"I will be." he said, nudging her to walk on.
They finally reached the tent...
"That was close." said Syaoran.
"Now..what do I do?"
"We've got to get rid of your bandages...unless that's the only thing holding you together."
"No, I'm the same as I was when they wrapped me up I believe."
"Ok.....well, remove them and we can go to town to get you some more modern clothes so you won't look so out of
place."
"Yes.." she said, "Could you please give me some help? My bandage begins at the back of my head."
"Sure." he reached behind her and handed her the tape. "There you go.."
"Thank you." she said, finishing unwrapping her pale peach face, her light auburn hair, and her shining emerald eyes.
"You certainly look like a princess..You're as beautiful as one." he said, makiing her blush.
She started to unravel her hand, leading up to her shoulder.
"Oh goodness! It feels so good to move!" she said, making him chuckle.
She finished unwrapping her arms, and then unwrapped the rest of her body, making Syaoran blush heavily at the
sight of her perfect form.
He quickly turned his head towards his bag, and pulled out a shirt and pants for her.
"Here, where these until we can go to town." he said, tossing them to her without looking at her.
"Thank you." she smiled.
"Let me know when you have them on."
"Okay. They're on" she said, and Syaoran turned around to start blushing again.
She had the paints wrapped around her waist, with the shirt slightly hanging below it.
"That's not how we wear them...see, you slip your leg into one side, and the other leg into the other side."
"Oh...we never had these when I was around."
"I figured that out...We'll get you some skirts when we go to tonw."
