Chapter 5: Sasuke Minamoto.

Sayo was been wondering in the Forest Of Myths for hours. She still couldn't find her way out. She tried using the Scarlet Ruby but still failed. It seem that Sayo is lost in that forest.

She is not only tired but hungry as well. The sunsets and it makes it harder for Sayo to continue walking. When the moonlight shrine on Sayo, she started to think of Yukito. She knows Yukito real identity is Yue but she still likes him. The night is getting darker and much more difficult for Sayo. She felt like giving up.

She sits down for a while. Suddenly, she smelled something good. It smells like roast Chicken. Sayo followed the delicious aroma and run there. She felt so happy maybe she found a way out from the forest. But then, she saw someone enjoying the roasted Chicken by himself. Sayo started to drool. The food smells good and she really wanted to eat.

She begins to move about the bush she is hiding in. The guy spotted her and gets his samurai type of blade. He gets ready to attack and Sayo is still hiding. She hopes that guy will not attack her.

"Who's there!" The armored guy shouted.

"…In the name of Clow, Power of magic, Power of Light. Release the Wand with the forced ignite," Sayo chanted.

With that bright glow, the guy dashes forward and attack Sayo. Sayo managed to dough the attack in the nick of time. Then she begins to summon the Earthly card. It did not work, as that guy is fast and evade all her attacks. Sayo thinks fast and summon Firey. It is because Firey is an aggressive card and maybe it could stop that guy.

Firey used its fire attack towards the stranger and his blade cut through the fire attack and dashes towards Sayo. He places his blade near Sayo's jugular vein. Sayo is scared stiff. She could feel the sharpness and the coldness of the blade that sends a cold shiver down her Spine. The guy glared deeply in Sayo's eyes. It seems that he is seeing deep into her heart.

"What the hell you doing here?" The guy asked angrily.

"…Well…" Sayo sweat dropped.

Suddenly, Sayo's stomach begins to grumble. Sayo blushes hardly and smirked. The guy sweat dropped and signed. He pulled back his blade and sign once again. Sayo looked at him and smiled.

"You are hungry? Well you can eat here for the moment and then tell me why you are here!" The guy demanded.

"Yes! Sir!" Sayo said.

The Stranger gave Sayo some food, which he cooked. Sayo munch and munch the food. It was the most delicious roasted Chicken she ever taste. She eats a lot and left a few for the stranger. After eating, Sayo noticed the guy looked like her father except for his eyes and hair. The stranger looked at Sayo again and she blushes.

"Sorry for eating all of your food" Sayo smirked.

"…Never mind. Anyway who are you and what are you doing here?" the stranger glares straight towards Sayo's eyes.

"I am Sayo. Li Sayo. I wanted to head West like that girl said and I end up lost here" Sayo smiled

"…Oh?"

"Who are you? You seem to be on guard when you saw me. Are you planning on doing something?" asked Sayo

"I am Minamoto Sasuke. Just call me Sasuke. I am planning to destroy the evil empress here, Kali," Sasuke glared at Sayo's eyes again.

"Could you stop glaring at me like that?" Sayo blushes.

"Sorry, But I seem to see those green eyes before somewhere. It's the same as yours. Looking so innocent" Sasuke looked away.

"How old are you? I am 14. Anyway do you know the way out from here? I came from Tomoeda" Sayo continued.

"I am 15. I don't even know where the hell Tomoeda is. What is it anyway?" Sasuke asked back.

"So you are the same age as Hiroshi. Anyway Tomoeda is a city in Tokyo" Sayo continued.

"…I don't know. Except if you said you came from the Mystic Portal"

"Yes, I think I did"

"Then, you can't get home"

The last word Sasuke said makes Sayo hurt. She really wanted to go back. Tears stared to fall again. She thought going west will bring here back to where she came from but it ended up further. Sasuke looked at her, he felt sorry for that innocent looking girl. He stands up and places his hand on Sayo's shoulder. Sayo looked up.

"Maybe there's still a way but I am not quite sure" Sasuke continued

"Really?" Sayo wipe her tears.

"Yes, defeat Kali and you might open he portal again," Sasuke take his hand away.

"…Can I really defeat her? I am still in training," Sayo said

"You obtain the clow cards. You should be powerful!" Sasuke said.

"Clow cards?" Sayo said to herself

"Anyway, Good night. I am going to bed" said Sasuke as he lies down on the ground

"…G' night,"

Actually, Sayo isn't sleeping but gazing at the vast sky. It is a starry night. So Beautiful with stars shining so bright. She enjoyed her time here and she doesn't feel insecure because she thinks she can trust her new friend. She smiled looking at her sleeping friend. Then, she continue looking at the vast sky.

"…I wonder…why the sky is so vast?" Sayo said to herself.
