Nain looked around in Miaka's room for the book. I'm sorry Miaka. No one was home, anymore. Nain had sent Miaka's family out to dinner with her own, and had claimed she was sick. She was a bit confused that she hadn't seen Miaka around. Maybe she wanted a free dinner or didn't know that Nain hadn't been going.
Nain looked for the book, but something was now nagging her. Where was Miaka? Nain picked up her cell phone and called her mother.
"Hey, Mom?" Nain said in Chinese. "Is Miaka there?" Nain added a very convincing cough to throw away any suspicion. Though she had put on such an act about wanting to go that no one in her family would suspect that she was faking.
"Miaka didn't come.I thought she was at home," she said, also in Chinese.
"Oh.,"Nain said calmly though her mind was rushing. "Thank you." She said as she hung up. Where the hell is Miaka? She isn't here.and she isn't at the dinner.
Nain went back to looking for the book. She was feverishly looking for the book. She finally found it near Miaka's schoolbag. She read the book carefully and found the section on Suzaku that Miaka had spoken about.
"Something isn't right about this." Nain whispered as she looked over the words. "She continued flipping through the book. She found a small section on Byakko and read the words. Something another book said.something about a Byakko priestess.Her name was..Osugi Suzuno. She had been the best friend of Nain's grandmother. I saw a picture of Osugi. She was a Japanese girl who had hosted my grandmother as an exchange student. They remained friends for a long time.
Why is all of this coming back to me.Nain slipped the book into her bag and left for home. Nain had suddenly become very sleepy and was ready to go to sleep.

Yui walked up the walk to Miaka's house and was surprised to see Nain walking down the side walk slightly away from Miaka's house. Nain had pulled her long coat around her as if she was cold, but the night was only mildly cool.
Yui rang the door bell and waited, surprised to find no one was answering the door. Yui tried the door and found it was locked. She looked under the mat and found the key in its place. Yui picked it up and unlocked the door. She had done this thousands of times. She stuck her head in and yelled into the house.
"Hello!!"
No answer came. Funny.Miaka is usually here. Yui walked back down the walkway and turned the way Nain had come. She walked slightly faster than Nain and caught up to her in moments.
"Hi, Nain," Yui said. It was dark, but Yui could still see Nain jump slightly. What's wrong with her?
"Hey." Nain avoided looking at Yui and she walked slightly faster. Yui, too, quickened her pace.
"Do you know where Miaka is?"
"My family and hers went for dinner. maybe she's there."
"Why didn't you go.?
"I." Nain hesitated ever so slightly. "I didn't feel well, but I needed some air."
"All the way out by Miaka's house? Your house is a mile away. You shouldn't walk that if you don't feel well."
"You know how active I am." Yui couldn't deny this. Nain took PE and an extra PE class, plus she played volley ball, basket ball, martial arts, and other classes that Yui had no clue on.
"But still.take it easy." Yui walked off in another direction towards her home. I'll see Miaka in school tomorrow. The next day rolled along and Miaka's seat was empty all day long.

Miaka followed Tamahome as he led her through alleyways and past venders. He eventually came to the opposite outskirt of the town and pushed away a curtain. In the little tent like-thing, sat another guy. This guy was a man, though, not a boy, and was elegant. He had a beautiful look and at the same time, sickly.
"Who is this girl, Tamahome? She dresses strangely." Miaka took a step back, slightly afraid.
