Chapter Two
_-_-_-_ Much is suspected of me, Nothing can be proved - Princess Sakura of Kinomoto Kingdom_-_-_-_
---__Regular POV__---
There was a rustle of amazement, of alarm. Tomoyo asked with anxiety if anything were wrong.
"I-think-so..," was Princess Sakura's baffling reply.
"Is her grace not feeling well?"
She turned her eyes towards Tomoyo with a look that might mean gratitude. She paused, nodded, then swayed, and put out a groping hand, and the elegant fingers of the princess clutched Tomoyo's arm so sharply that she winced.
"Yes, that is it. I feel giddy. Take me back to my room. Tell them I am ill. I cannot ride to the Prince. I am going to bed."
Sakura turned and went back, leaning helplessly upon Tomoyo's arm and their retreating figures disappeared within the dim cool cave of the hall. The great doors were shut too.
The men in the courtyard looked at each other, nodded, and swore softly. Their youg lady had changed her mind again.
What did it mean?
Was she ill?
Was it a sham?
She could always be ill if she'd mind to, they thought.
Why should she have a mind to now, when her brother who loved her more than anything in the world was laying at the point of death?
" A hard-hearted young bitch," the Prince's messenger muttered as he took horse again to ride back with the news and no doubt the Prince would give small thanks and die with a broken heart.
'The prince yearned to see his sweet sister once again' was the message he had brought, but to him and to others it had only seemed to move the princess for a moment and then she had gone to bed.
---__Sakura and Tomoyo's POV__---
Sakura saw the sunlight reflecting on the stones of the palace, it was nearly 12 minutes since she had given the order to take the horses away.
"Cherry? It's not too late, we can still send for the horses," said Tomoyo using the nickname she gave the princess.
"Stop that at once! We both know I can't leave..Duke Helio is watching..." said Sakura's voice shaking.
"Your Grace? Surely for Prince Touya you would leave this palace!" replyed Tomoyo's angered voice.
Then the Princess abruptly stood up and walked over to the side of the bed, snatched up a book that had slid to the floor of the wall and flung it against the closed door.
The abrupt silence quivered over the sunlit room with an effect disruptive and shocking, like sudden death.
The Li Kingdom's evil Duke had carried out his orders, and the fading of the great Kinomoto Kingdom had begun.

I know It's a bit short but I promise, next time it will be longer!!!!
Preview of the next chapter:
The footsteps were following them, and the quickened their pace. Sakura flung herself into the water swiming nervously at the sight of a dark shape beneath her...... What will happen? Did she escape the Palace? Will she make it to Touya in time? Find out.........
