Youkaigirl64ON WITH THE STORY!
Kinomoto castle:
Sakura was sitting on her bed, she was in a pink kimono, and Tomoyo was wearing her favourite purple kimono. She had grown out of the one that Sakura had given her all those years ago, so Sakura had got the royal dressmaker to create an identical. And also, one for herself.
Sakura sighed. "I'm so bored Tomoyo. I haven't had a challenge for over a year. Everyone fears me, and I killed everyone that DID challenge me…"
Tomoyo giggled at her girlfriend's remark. She had said it so innocently, even though she was talking about killing someone.
"I'm sure that there's someone out there Saku. They're probably biding their time, then they'll be so cocky and make mistakes, just like that soldier…Shinzu, wasn't it?"
"I don't remember his name, it was that long ago...but then again he was dead in thirty seconds, I didn't get much of chance to talk." Sakura joked.
"You're evil Sakura, you talk about someone's death as if its not important."
Sakura pouted. "I'd be distraught if you died."
"I know you would." She giggled.
"We should get some rest Saku, I've got to sing to all the soldiers tomorrow, when we send yet another wave to attack the Li castle. And you're expected to go with them."
" I know, but I don't see the point. It will more than likely lead to an inevitable death for me. I can only take on three soldiers at a time, not a whole swarm of the maggots. They'll all hunt me out."
"I believe that you can win Sakura. This war needs something fresh; it's been in a stalemate position for years. Something needed to happen, and now it has!"
"Don't you care about me Tomoyo?" Sakura sulked.
"You know how much I love you, and I have faith that you will live."
Sakura grunted and got her and Tomoyo's pyjamas from her drawers. Matching silk nightdresses, pink and purple, each to their respective owners.
They changed in front of each other and climbed into Sakura's four-poster, double bed. Sakura on the left side and Tomoyo on the right. Sakura wrapped her arm around Tomoyo's waist, per ritual.
They both fell into an uneasy sleep.
Tomoyo hoping that Sakura didn't die tomorrow.
Sakura hoping that Tomoyo didn't make a mistake whilst singing to the soldiers.
Li castle:
Syaoran looked out his window, it was dark. The time had come already.
He walked downstairs and into the servant's quarters.
"Where is the messenger?" he said to Naoki, another female servant.
"She is eating her dinner my lord."
"Thank you." He said, whilst walking to the servant's dining room. He saw his former servant Chelsea (aka Chiharu) eating a dismal meal.
"I have a job for you."
"Yes my lord."
"Leave your meal. I want you to take this to the Kinomoto castle (he said whilst handing her a scroll) read it aloud to the assembly. Take some of your things, and you have my permission to go to the royal kitchen and take some food for your journey."
She bowed her head and shuffled away. Li returned to his bedroom, changed into some velvet green shorts, and fell asleep in his bed.
Whilst he was sleeping, Naoki left the castle and foot and began a long trek towards the Kinomoto castle, her pace was quick as it was imminent that she was there before noon. There had been word of another attack at noon.
