Syaoran

For the second time in two days I was jolted out of sleep by loud noises. For a moment I forgot what had happened, and who the girl beside me was. Just as suddenly it all came back. Sakura was sitting up alertly; I took it the noise had woken her up too. It went off again, and from many times past I recognized it as gunshot. I told Sakura to stay low beside the couch.

"Wait,", she whispered as I got up, "take this." As she spoke she reached into her bag and pulled out a small shotgun.

"Just in case." , she said with a small smile. I knew then that she wasn't an idiot, and that she had a cool head. I got up and went to the window. Standing near it, just peeking out, I saw a richly dressed man in the alley across the street, begging for his life...bargaining maybe, from the looks of his clothes. The man standing above him with a gun shook his head smiled, aimed the gun and shot. I knew then that it was an assassin. Who else smiled while shooting someone? And more importantly, the bullet went right through his head, the mark of the most expensive assassin in the country. Sokoro. Whoever the dead man was, he had messed with some pretty important people. And now he was regretting it. I heard sirens coming, and I guessed that someone in one of the buildings had heard the commotion and called the police. Sokoro looked around, and my luck failed me. He saw me. I saw his eyes slide over to the next window, and I saw him smile savagely. Fortunately the sirens were near enough for him to have to make an escape. But I knew that we had to get out of here. Sokoro didn't like witnesses. As he disappeared I looked over and felt the blood drain from my face. Standing at the window beside me, in full view, was Sakura. I was surprised he hadn't shot her. Sakura's lips trembled as she spoke,

"That poor man..."she said.

" Never mind the man, do you realize how lucky you are? To be alive?", I yelled, my voice rising a semitone with every word. She looked at me with a puzzled look on her face.

" That was an assassin, and that particular one didn't like witnesses. I don't know where we can go now, but we need to get out of here. We need to go far, far away. Do you understand?", I asked in a panic. She nodded her head mutely. The knowledge of how lucky she was must have seeped in.

Sakura

I heard loud banging that sounded like fireworks, but what they would be doing here I didn't know. Realization then hit me...it wasn't fireworks, it was gunshots. As Syaoran got up I gave him my gun. He took it with a shadow of a smile. He got up and went to the window. Since he was just standing there, even with a grim look on his face, I decided to see what was going on. Quietly I crept to the window. Not particularly paying attention to whether I was hidden or not, I looked outside...and froze in shock. The result of the gunshots we had heard was a man lying in the alley across the street. Standing over him, was another man, and he was smiling slightly. We heard sirens, and the man turned around and spotted Syaoran, and then his eyes slid over and he saw me. I saw the way he looked at me. It made me sick. I had seen my father's friends look at me like that before. Followed by disgusting actions. I was very lucky that I was still a virgin. Very lucky. The man turned around and made his escape. Syaoran turned to look at me, and his eyes widened in panic. He started pacing and yelling at me. This was different from the Syaoran I had seen last night. I didn't like this Syaoran. I stood mutely and stared at him as his words sunk in. I then realized how much danger I was in. We both agreed that we needed to go somewhere. Somewhere far away.

Normal

Sakura, never having been on the run in her entire life, was completely clueless as to what they were going to do. Syaoran had no choice but to take charge. He got them outside to a pay phone, into a taxi, and to the airport.

" We don't have enough money for two tickets. We don't know where we are going to go. What are we going to do...?" Sakura asked, tears of panic filling her eyes. Syaoran looked up, and realized that she was right. They most certainly did not have enough money.

" We'll go by boat then." he said. "It's not as fast, but its efficient enough." Sakura nodded silently, but in her head there were tons of things that could have gone wrong. The boat could sink, Sokoro might be one step ahead of them, and already on the boat, the driver might be possessed by the devil. Okay, maybe not the last one...But the other two were completely possible. She looked over at Syaoran, who was walking along purposely beside her, ready to call another cab. The cab drove them to the boating dock, But there was only one boat leaving... and it was going to America.
