Sorry I haven't updated in a pretty long time. I've had a lot of stuff to do. Well, this is chapter three! I hope you like it.
Sakura looked at Yelan to her brother, then back again. "You two know one another?" She asked in a soft squeaky tone.
"Uh, I think I've seen her before," Touya muttered. He ignored Yelan and scanned the Li Village people. "So, it's only this little bunch of people that survived? That's disappointing, but I'm sure you all did your best. There are a few places scattered around our village for you to stay. The fire is starting to go down but, you should remain here. It will be unsafe for you to go back."
Yelan had an angry glare on Touya. "Ah, that is very kind of you. But, are you sure your people won't attack us while we are here?"
"Why would they do that?" Sakura blurted out, "The people in this village are very nice. They would never attack guests from other villages, especially those in need."
Yelan's anger went down a little but she hadn't calmed down.
Touya nodded to Sakura and she smiled. "My men will escort you to some empty homes and give you food and money. Some of you will have to work when your money is gone." Touya said. "The king and queen and their children may stay here, in the castle. Sakura,"
Sakura nodded. "I know your highness." She quickly hid her smirk.
Sakura motioned the Li family to follow her into some rooms. Yelan stayed behind to talk to Touya.
The six of them walked in silence until Sakura turned around to stop them from walking. "Um, you four can go into this room," Sakura said as she opened the door for the four sisters. The four of them nodded in thanks. Sakura smiled and left, followed by Syaoran.
"Uh," Syaoran began not knowing what to say.
"This is your room." Sakura told him as he stopped abruptly and slipped almost falling onto Sakura. "You don't have to go now," She whispered. "I want to show you my garden."
Syaoran gave her a confused look and nodded.
Sakura broke into a run and Syaoran quickly followed. She stopped next to a wooden door with a cute pink design on it.
"This is my room, if you ever want to see me or something." She opened the door. Syaoran stared. He had never in his life seen a room covered in pink. He shook his head to clear away the thought. "Come on, this way!" Sakura whispered. (The two of them were on the fourth floor. The sisters' room was on the second, Syaoran's was on the third and the two of them went up another flight of stairs which led to Sakura's room.)
Sakura led Syaoran to another door. She fiddled with the lock and opened it. Inside was a large strange circled room which walls were all covered in gray rocks. There were no windows and no doors. In the middle of the room, was a huge hole. Syaoran stood on the huge circle of rock right inside of the room he entered. The stone was just big enough for Sakura and him to stand on. Sakura closed the door shut which made the room pitch dark. Syaoran looked around uneasily.
"Wait a second and don't move. I wouldn't want you to fall off." Sakura whispered. Her voice echoed throughout the room. There was a strange clanking sound and then, the room was filled light. On the ground were all different kinds of trees, flower bushes, and of course grass. The ceiling had disappeared. But then again… Syaoran looked from the ceiling to the floor.
"Wow," Syaoran muttered.
"Don't you like it?" Sakura asked. She was a couple feet in front of him bending down and observing a newly planted tree. I climbed a vine from outside onto the roof of this room. It was a great place to start a garden. There was already a lot of dirt and sand on it. Father helped me with the garden. Mother did too… But the two of them passed away so sudden. I haven't been able to do much but water it. I planted this tree a couple days ago."
"It's very nice. Can I help then?"
"Of course! That would be wonderful!"
Syaoran smiled slightly.
"Time to water them." Sakura cried cheerfully, pulling off her shoes.
"What?"
Just then the sprinklers turned on all around the garden…
I might have to change their ages... I wonder if this Fanfic is still okay... it's getting kind of strange. Please review and tell me if I should change their ages! (I'm bad at explaining things well.)
