Prev: "You look tiered too. If you want to you can sleep for a while now." "That would be great, thank you." Sora replied smiling.
After a few hours of sleeping, Sora woke up again. She scratched her head and opened her eyes slowly. Sora stood up, got her clothes on and walked out of the room. The smell of food was hanging in the air. She could also hear two people laugh. Sora looked around the corner and saw Sakura en Tsua. Sakura was tickling Tsua, who was on the ground, laughing. Sora had to smile about this.
"Maybe I could leave her here…" Sora thought while she walked in the room. "Good morning." She said.
Sakura looked up smiling. "Good morning. I made you some breakfast, it's there on the table."
"It's yummy!" Tsua said still laughing.
Sora smiled. "Thank you very much Sakura."
"No problem," said the woman smiling, "I'm always happy to have someone here." She stopped smiling. "My husband died a few years ago."
Sora's smile disappeared too. "I'm sorry Sakura."
"Thank you." She smiled again. "Don't worry too much about it."
Sora nodded and began to eat her breakfast.
'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-'-
"I must go to the market, there's almost nothing to eat here anymore." Sakura said.
"No Sakura, I'll do it for you. You did already enough for us, it's time that we do something back. I'll pay." Sora said standing up.
"No, you don't have to pay…"
"I want it." Sora smiled. "Don't worry, just tell me what you need."
Sakura smiled. "You're too good." She gave a little paper to Sora whit all the things on that she needed.
Sora took the paper and turned around, a sad smile on her face. "If only that was true…" "Tsua, are you coming whit me?"
Tsua looked at Sakura first, who nodded. Tsua nodded at this too and she stood up and followed Sora out the door.

"Two fish please." Sora said pointing at two fish.
Sora took some money out of her pocket and gave it to the man who gave her the fish.
"Okay Tsua, you can scrap fish of the list."
Whit a little line, Tsua scrapped the fish away.
"We have everything." Tsua said, waving the list before Sora's nose.
Sora smiled. "Good, we can go back to Sakura now."
They were silent for a moment, until Sora finally popped out the question.
"Do you like Sakura?"
Tsua looked up surprised, but smiled quickly. "Ya, she's nice!"
Sora smiled. "If you want to, I can ask her if you can stay whit her. What do you think?"
Tsua looked at Sora whit big eyes. "I can?"
"I must ask Sakura first. I can't promise anything…But do you want it?"
"Ya!"
"Then I'll ask her. But don't say anything about it to her, okay?"
Tsua nodded smiling and the both of them walked further. After a few minutes, they could see Sakura's house. Suddenly, some kind of unpleasant feeling stepped in Sora's mind. Like something wasn't right, something was going to happen. And it wasn't good.
"Tsua," she said, "hide in that bush over there, and only come out if I ask you. And be silent."
Tsua looked at Sora surprised. "What?"
Sora turned to Tsua. "Do what I say. Now."
Tsua quickly ran at the bush and hide behind it. Sora slowly walked to the house, her hand going to one of her katanas that she hide under her jacket. She saw that the door was open and the unpleasant feeling only grew. Sora sneaked in the house and pressed her back against the wall. She could hear a woman's voice.
"That's Sakura. No doubt about that."
And two men's voice that she couldn't place. Sora carefully looked behind the corner. The two men were standing next to each other, they were both policemen. And Sakura was standing before them. She looked confused. Sora couldn't see the expression of the two men, so she listened first.
"You don't have to lie to us Miss Nyozoma. Yamato Ishida, my partner here, saw it with his own eyes." One of the men said.
"B-but that's just impossible Mister Izumi! It must be a mistake…"
"I know what I see and what I don't." Said Ishida with a low voice.
"Those people are dangerous. Tell us were they are." Said Izumi .
"Dangerous? I don't think we are talking about the same people…" Sakura replied.
"Look, we've got the order, to search a girl of sixteen with red hair who is travelling with a boy of the same age and a little girl. We are certain that she is her and you know were she is."
Sora could feel her heart skip a beat. They were talking about her, Sojiro and Tsua.
"T-there wasn't a boy of sixteen with them! I…"
"You have no clue what kind of people you've got in your house!" Ishida suddenly yelled. "They have taken the little girl whit them after they killed her mother and they are working for Shishio Makoto!"
It was silent for a moment and Sora could hear Sakura say something, but what it exactly was, she didn't know.
"Just tell us were they are Miss Nyozoma!"
"N-no! It must be a mistake! I…"
Suddenly Izumi grabbed Sakura's wrist roughly, and pushed her against the wall. Sakura made a sound of pain when her back slammed against the wall.
"Tell us were they are!"
That was too much for Sora. She took her katana by the other side and slammed with the grip of it on Ishida's head. Izumi turned around surprised, but Sora already got her other katana in her hand too, and slammed Izumi on the head with the grip now. The two policemen fell on the ground and Sora got her katanas back under her jacket. She quickly turned to Sakura. She had passed out, and was lying on the ground. Sora cursed and ran outside to get Tsua. Then she ran back at the house and tried to get Sakura on one of the beds. After a few minutes, Sora finally managed to get Sakura on the bed. Tsua looked at Sakura worried.
"Is she alright?"
Sora only nodded, put the blanket over Sakura and left the room.
"It's all my fault…All thanks to me…All because I am what I am…People are hurting innocent people because of me…It just isn't…isn't…fair…"
She closed her eyes, followed by tears that rolled of her cheeks.
