A Kiss That Kills
Authoress: cookiiex
Chapter SiX: Before We Die

Sakura felt her brain cells fall to the ground in exhaustion. She's currently in the Kohona Public Libaray. She sighed. She probably read 40 books of Kohona's records. 'Seriously what is this!' her inner Sakura shouted.

Sakura leaned back on the chair. 'The store is named Beauty, so why can't I find it?'. She closed her eyes. 'Why can't I find it?' She cried, wet tears slowly streaming down her cheek. 'Sasuke...'

Darkness was surrounding her, closing in on her bright world. "Stop it! Stop following me!" Sakura screamed. She turned her back to the darkness and ran. She ran, but no matter how fast she ran, the darkness was close behind her.

She looked back with eyes that spoke horror. "No.." she whispered as she ran foward her eyes closed. Not watching where she was going, she tripped over something. Now on the ground she looked back. What was chasing her anyway?

Rising from the darkness, a figure. "Sakura.." it moaned. Sakura's skin paled while her jaw fell a little. "Kyoto.." she whispered. Kyoto's form now wasn't the beautiful Kyoto from the other night. She was now with old, wilthering skin that was a ghostly white. She was missing an eye, her long white hair covering her. She looked like a zombie.

Kyoto extended a decaying arm. "Sakura.." She moaned, the darkness closing the gap between it and Sakura. Sakura didn't notice. She started to cry. "What... What happened to you?" she whispered softly.

Kyoto clenched her remaining teeth. "You... you didn't save my friend. You're a liar". Sakura clasped her hands on her ears. "No! I will save you! You have to trust me!" She looked up noticing the darkness and Kyoto was a few inches away from her.

Looking up at Kyoto scared her. Kyoto glared down at her. "You can't do anything now.". Sakura looked at her in disbelief. "I'm still here, I could help." Sakura pleaded. Kyoto shook her head. "How can you help when Sasuke's dead." Kyoto pointed at the figure on Sakura's right.

Sakura screamed. "Sasuke.." she crawled over to the boy. "Sasuke.." she wept as she hugged him close. "He's cold.."she murmured. A sharp pain went through her hand. Sakura hissed in pain as she bought her hand to her face.

"Ahh!" she screamed. Her hand was like Kyoto's skin. It was slowly decaying, parts of her skin falling off before her. "It's time." Kyoto declare as she bent over towrads Sakura. "Kyoto,.. what are you doing?" Sakura's stunned form rooted to the ground.

Kyoto spread her arms out, the darkness strectching out with her gesture. As she hugged Sakura, she mumured 'Goodbye, Sakura'. The moment Kyoto hugged her though, Kyoto dissappeared, leaving the darkness in her place.

The darkness had swallowed her world.

Sakura awoke from the nightmare when she felt a tap on her shoulder. "Ano... hello Sakura -san." said a small voice. Sakura put on a fake smile.

"Eh, Hinata- chan? I didn't know you were here."

"I came to return some books.."

"Ah, I see."

A moment of silence passed between the two. An uncomfortable silence. Hinata smiled weakly and asked Sakura to follow her. "Please Sakura-san, I have something to show you." she pleaded. Sakura sighed and followed the shy girl.

For the next five minutes, Hinata lead Sakura to the horror/romance section. Skimming the blurbs, Hinata finally stopped and pulled out a book. Sakura looked confused. Hinata dragged her all the way over here to look at a book! She could've been saving Sasuke's life right now!

"Ne, Sakura-san, I saw this book the other day. It was very ... interesting.. so I thought you'll read it?" Hinata asked politely. Sakura, not wanting to be rude, took the book. "Arigato, Hinata-chan. Ja Ne." Then the pair split.

Sakura sat on her bed. Tomorrow was her last day to figure it out before her and Sasuke... Sakura shook her head. 'You will find it Sakura! You'll free them. I know I will!' she thought. Is this how Naruto felt when a odds were against him?

Sakura stared at the book she borrowed. She saw the cover eariler in the day. ' 'Tale Of A Lonely Lover'? What a strange title.' Sakura thought, even though the title was weird, Sakura felt this strange attraction to the book. Like something was tellling her to read it.

She reached out for the book before a thought occured to her. 'Sakura, you idiot!' Her hand withdrew a little. 'You're supposed to think about those damn initals! The book could wait but Sasuke cannot!' Her hands went back to her side reluctlantly. A few minutes later, Sakura drifted to dream land.

"Sakura..". Someone was calling her, who?

"Sakura.." There it was again. Who is that?

"Oh for the love of God, girl. Get up!" Sakura awoke to find a raven haired figure stood there in front. THe woman's expresssionless blue eyes stared back at Sakura, making her shriver.

The woman before speaking. "Yumi. Takaniwa Yumi.". Sakura's eyes widened.

"You.. you're the woman Kyoto is tiring to free." Yumi nodded letting out a 'hn'. Yumi looked at Sakura. 'Her eyes..' Sakura thought as she stared at the dead blue eyes. Yumi cleared her throat before she begun.

"The password.. . is in that book. The four most occuring words are the answer." Sakura almost scremed in joy. Yumi turned, her hands in her pocket. "Just remember, R before E." with that said Yumi dissappered.

Sakura bolted up from her bed. She hadn't have time to waste! She opened the book and started to read. The initals BABH written across a piece of paper. Tonight was going to be a long night.

THe only thing that confused Sakura was what Yumi had said in her dream.

"Just remember R before E."

TBC...
