"Um...we're here," Sakura said slowly, breaking the awkward silence that had traveled with the trio on their journey.
Kyo seemed to snap out of a dream and bellowed out, "It's about damn time.."
Sakura's hands shook slightly, seeing police cars parked outside in the front driveway, "Oh no...they're going to ask what happened...and then... I'll have to leave...Yuki..."
"Miss Haruma, just tell them your father attacked you," Yuki said, getting a glint in his eye, "Your mother told you to run away, so you did, and after that you don't have any idea what hapened..."
Sakura nodded, running up to the back porch and opened the back door. She dropped to the kitchen floor, seeing all the blood. A police officer ran to her and picked her up off the floor and took her outside. "Are you Sakura Haruma?" She nodded. "There was an accident last night...I don't know how to explain it to you without hurting you, but your mother-"
"She's dead isn't she...He killed her," Sakura said, her knees giving away again, "He...He hit me, and mother told me to run away to the nearest house...and...and..."
"Do you have someone you can stay with for a while?" the officer said, patting her on the back.
"She can stay with us," Yuki said, tears almost comming to his eyes, "Is it alright if we go in and gather some of her things? She's in no shape to go back inside..."
Kyo had his back turned to the group. His eyes were starting to well with tears. How much torture can one normal person go through? The bruises on her body I seen earlier...those weren't just from one night. He turned around as the police officer nodded. Yuki led into the house. Kyo tried not to step in the pools of blood, but it was hard. He was thankful for the white bloodstained sheets that were covering the tattered body of Sakura's mother. Police were taking pictures of her step-father's body for evidence. Kyo's body was inflamed with hate as they walked upstairs.
After trying several doors, they found Sakura's room. Yuki searched for a suitcase while Kyo went through her closet and dresser drawers. He gathered up several outfits, mainly skirts, sweaters and undershirts. While going through the closet he noticed a black net top and put it into his pile. Yuki finally found a suitcase and started packing.
"She was beaten," Kyo finally said. His voice echoed in the nearly empty room.
"How do you know," Yuki questioned in his normal soft tone. He neatly folded the undershirts Kyo had grabbed and stacked them next to a book he grabbed from Sakura's nightstand.
"She has a lot of bruises," Kyo said, packing some of the jewlery into a little bag he found on her dresser, "And...what happened downstairs...I get the strange feeling it wasn't the first argument. It's just...wierd.."
Yuki finished his packing and gave the suitcase to Kyo, "I'll get the dog." Yuki walked out into the hall, finding a leash on a hook beside a door. He gently got the leash off the hook, hearing Kyo behind him leaving the hallway. He slid open the door, gasping slightly. A large Akita-ish dog was laying down in the corner of what seemed to be the laundry room. The dog had a soft tan colored pelt with eerie blue eyes. It stood up and walked over to Yuki and sat down whining softly. "Wow, you're quite large," Yuki said smiling at patting the massive dog on the head. When standing, her back came to Yuki's waist.He attached the leash to the dog's collar and led it down the stairs and outside. The dog was really unfazed by the situation downstairs, and wagged it's tail when it seen Sakura.
"Momo!" she shouted excitedly. The dog dashed forward, ripping the leash from Yuki's hand. Sakura wrapped her arms around the large fuzzy neck of the dog and laughed under the pink tounge. Kyo had a look of amazement on his face and dropped it quickly, "Let's go...I'm hungry."
