Chapter 14
"The Beginning of a Beautiful Relationship"
One could feel the tension in the air as it weighed down nature. The birds weren't singing and everything was strangely quiet save the sound of shuffling feet. Meiling and Fuh Lung glowered at each other as they walked with one another with a distance of ten feet in between them. Occasionally there would be some insults thrown back and forth, followed by Meiling sticking her tongue out at Fuh Lung and him making a face at her. This was truly a sophisticated and mature fight. (a/n: dere getting along really well don't u think?)
"Stupid Xiao Lang," Meiling mumbled bitterly under her breath, "making me go look for firewood with this stupid guy."
"Hey, it's not like I enjoy it you know," retorted Fuh Lung.
"You heard that?" Meiling blinked in surprise.
"Of course I did; I trained my senses and heightened them."
"Well good for you."
When they'd gathered a sufficient amount of twigs and branches, they stopped to take a short break and picked some fruits growing on some nearby trees to satisfy their hunger. While munching on her fruit, Meiling looked around and observed the scenery in front of her. It was then that she spotted two horses.
One was a mare that was white with a long and beautiful mane and tail that was also white. She had a graceful air about her. The other one was a black stallion with a white stripe going down from his forehead to his nose. He had strong built and fierce looking eyes. From the looks of his confident pose and powerful muscles, he was definitely a warhorse.
"Ooh. . . they're pretty. . ." Meiling marveled at the two horses as she carefully made her way towards them, making sure not to make any sudden noises or movements that would scare them away.
She walked up to the black stallion and touched his nose gingerly. He snorted and neighed. Getting a daredevil look in her eyes, Meiling swung herself onto him even though she'd never had any experience on a horse before, much less a fierce warhorse.
Once he felt her on his back he kicked wildly, determined to throw her off. Terrified, she hung onto his neck for dear life, screaming at the top of her lungs. After the stallion realized that she wasn't about to let go anytime soon, he started to take off, his powerful muscles making him go at an incredible speed.
Fuh Lung blinked and looked dumbfounded as he looked on. As the incident registered in his mind he swore an oath and jumped onto the white mare, galloping after her.
'Damn her, that stupid girl, why did she get on the horse for? If she gets hurt Syaoran is going to put a bounty on my head," Fuh Lung thought angrily at her stupidity.
"Fuh Lung!!!!!! Help me-e-e-e-e-e!!!!!!!!!!" scream a terrified Meiling. (a/n: hmm. . . shes not actin like her normal prideful self. . . :P)
Urging the mare on, Fuh Lung continued to chase after her. As he realized that the warhorse was much faster than the mare, he began to look for another way to rescue her. Reaching down the side of his waist, he pulled out a whip about fifteen feet long. He lashed it at a branch overhead and swung himself up and onto the warhorse, seating himself behind Meiling. He then wrapped one arm around her waist to keep her from falling off as his other hand grabbed onto the rein, pulling it back. Soon after, the horse came to a stop a whinnied. Both breathed a breath of relief and wiped the sweat off their foreheads.
Thinking to thank him, Meiling turned around and for the first time got a really good look at him. He looked rather cute. . . A gentle zephyr ruffled his red untamed hair and his deep, entrancing golden eyes shone down on her, a smirk curving his lips upward.
During this time, Fuh Lung also noticed her features for the first time since meeting, or rather, kidnapping her. The sun shone on her, making her raven black hair and fiery ruby eyes shine. Her cheeks were red, along with her dried, ripe lips.
The horse suddenly snorted and snapped them back into reality. They became conscious of the arm that was around Meiling's waist and jerked away from each other, blushing furiously.
"I. . . uh. . ." Fuh Lung stammered, looking at everywhere but her face while she seemed to be really interested in examining her fiddling hands.
"Thank-you for saving me," said Meiling in a small voice. (a/n: my hero. . . hahah :P)
"Huh? What? Oh, it was nothing," Fuh Lung smiled sheepishly.
He made a smooth jump off the horse and started heading back to where he'd left the white mare. Meiling then got off the horse rather clumsily and trailed behind him, taking the warhorse along with her. Once they got there they were greeted with a peaceful sight of the white mare munching on some grass near a quiet and sparkling pond.
"I think it's best we head back to Syaoran. He might begin to worry that we killed each other," Fuh Lung chuckled.
Meiling nodded and held out her hand. Fuh Lung eyed it weirdly, not sure what she was doing.
"Truce?" asked Meiling.
"All right, truce!" Fuh Lung smiled and shook her hand.
He then jumped onto the warhorse and motioned for Meiling to get on the mare. She nodded and complied.
"If we ride there, we'll get there much faster."
They went back to pick up their bundle of sticks and secured it onto the back of the black horse. Then they galloped at a medium pace toward Syaoran.
*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*
Dusk was falling and still Syaoran waited anxiously for his friends to return. As the majestic sun began to set, the sky turned from a peaceful blue to a canvas streaked with beautiful and iridescent colors. Too busy worrying over Sakura; Syaoran couldn't enjoy the beauty of the sunset.
"Syaoran, look," Sakura whispered, "isn't it beautiful?"
"Oh, you're awake." he stated, "What's beautiful?" 'Besides you. . .' he thought. (a/n: ack. . . im startin to rite all mushy. . . ugh. . . -.-)
"The sunset," she sighed as her eyes glazed over and stared at the heavenly sky.
Before Syaoran could answer they were interrupted by a noise behind them. Syaoran's head jerked around immediately, inspecting the source of the noise. From behind the trees emerged Meiling and Fuh Lung on their horses. Syaoran sighed, relieved.
"Where'd you guys get those horses?" inquired Syaoran, curious.
"We found them," Meiling answered, causing her and Fuh Lung to remember the incident with the warhorse, which then made them blush slightly.
"I see. . ."
"So, where's Eriol?" questioned Fuh Lung, hoping to steer him off the subject.
"I don't know. . ."
*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*-*~*
Eriol sprinted through the forest at lighting speed, looking for the herb that would save Sakura's life. In his haste, he failed to notice the root sticking out of the ground and tripped on it, causing him to stumble and fall. It was due to this landing that he spotted the small plant growing out of the ground; the herb he was looking for. He eagerly snatched it up and readjusted his glasses.
A gust of wind blew past him as he picked himself up. What started out as a gentle breeze grew bigger and turned into a violent force of wind that nearly knocked him off his feet.
Eriol held onto the herb tightly, careful not to let it go while he wrapped himself around a tree trunk to shield himself from the wind.
A booming voice rang out behind him, causing him to twist around and come face to face with. . .
