Kiniro Sakura
Chapter Fourteen: Searching For Sakura
Suzuran sighed and looked up at the stars. They had been traveling to the Western Lands for two days now. They would have been there by now but Inuyasha kept saying he smelt Kikyo. Suzuran was confused by this at first but once Kagome and Shippo explained it to her, she understood. Now she, as was everyone else, was mad at Inuyasha for wanting to stop and wait for Kikyo. Suzuran was about fed up with him and his dead bitch, in fact, she was thinking about leaving the group and going to search for Sakura herself. She turned and looked at the sleeping people huddled by the dying fire. She was about to lie down as well when a rustling in the bushes caught her attention. She looked around the small campsite and noticed that Hokiboshi had gone missing. She parted the bushes and found Hokiboshi about to leave. He looked up at Suzuran with annoyed and impatient eyes. She smiled. She knew where he was going.
"Good luck in finding her, Hokiboshi. Hopefully you will have better luck than we did. If you find her please stay with her and make sure that she is safe and out of harms way. I have a strange feeling that there are people watching out for her so you should be okay. Goodbye, Hokiboshi." And with that she turned around and lay down by Kagome and Shippo. Hokiboshi took one last look at his friends before running off. He could still smell Sakura's scent, though it was faint. He followed it until he came across a cave where he stayed the rest of the night.
~In the Western Lands~
Sakura sat staring at the stars while standing on the balcony. She sighed. She knew that they were coming for her. And they would arrive soon. She hoped that her friends made it here safely before they attacked. She smelt the air and her eyes widened. A small smile tugged at her lips. Hokiboshi should arrive by tomorrow if her travels at that pace. I wonder why he left the others? Oh well, I'll find out soon enough. Sakura yawned and walked back into her room. She took one last look outside before settling into her bed and falling into a peaceful sleep.
