Sakura was sitting in a chair; her fingers laced together, her elbows on the table. This is where Broadway found her when he stormed into the room.

"What the heck did you think you were doing?!" Broadway demanded of her as he slammed his hand angrily on the table. Sakura looked up at him coolly.

"I have no idea what you are talking about." She replied leaning back in her chair. Broadway was outraged as he put his hands on the side of the chair and put his face next to hers.

"You know exactly what I am talking about. You saved him!" Broadway said lowly emphasizing each word. Sakura met his glare head on as she challenged him with one of her own.

"You tried to kill him." She replied. "I am the only one who will kill him. I have told you he is mine and I refuse to let some one like you take that away from me." She said standing up and pushing past him as Meliara and Joren came in to watch the fight. Broadway looked at her as his eyes narrowed.

"That's not the reason you saved him." He said as Sakura whirled around, fire in her eye.

"What?" she hissed.

"Admit it. You still love him." Broadway said advancing on her. "That's why you wanted to kill him, you didn't really want to kill him, you wanted to protect him!"

Sakura crossed her arms. "That isn't possible, you were the one that made me this way, remember?" she said scoffing. "You and that Chaos ruby you stole from my father's castle. Yes, I know what it is." She said in response to his look of surprise.

Broadway replaced his look with one of contempt. "Then you and I both know that until your transformation is complete you will still love Ryo. Only after the fourth day will you forget that and then you will truly be unstoppable, but until then I am in charge and I will be the one to kill Ryo."

Sakura moved until her face was right next to his. "Not while I'm around." She threatened.

"I will not let you ruin this, if you get in my way next time we fight, I will kill you myself, I don't care if you are the daughter of Talpa or not." Broadway said as a warning. Sakura turned and stormed out of the room as Broadway watched her leave. Once Sakura was gone Meliara and Joren walked further into the room.

"Well, seems like someone is having trouble keeping everything under control." Joren taunted as Meliara watched her brothers reaction.

"Save it, Joren." Broadway said scowling. "We have to wait for a couple more days until we attack the ronins again."

"Are you sure this is going to work?" Meliara spoke up.

"As soon as the fourth day is up, the very center of her heart crystal will turn black and then she won't have an qualms about Ryo dying." Broadway said.

"We just have to keep her under control until then."

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

Sakura stalked through the floating castle that used to belong to Seriyu. She found an empty room as she closed the door with a slam. She sank to the floor holding her head. The very center of her heart crystal was still good and the evil greatly outweighed it, but when Ryo had been in trouble, her world has stopped as all she could think about was making sure nothing happened to him. Her heart was slowly turning evil because of what Broadway had done, but for now there was still a part of her that was good and she was trying desperately to stay that way. She rested her head on the wall as she closed her eyes.

'Ryo'
