Chapter 7:

"Kinomoto-san? Are you there?" a girl's voice asked.

I put down my cup, "Ah, I thought I told you to call me Sakura, Yuni-chan."

A girl with a huge white hat and cloak came in.

"Gomen, but I thought that it would be improper of me to do so." Yuni said as she entered my room with grace.

I shook my head, "We're friends, ne?" I smiled to reassure my statement and gestured her a seat at the table. "Tea?"

She gratefully took her seat. We had meet each other the day before.

~Flash back~

"Kero-chan! Where are you?" I cried as I walked down the hall.

Geez, he shouldn't ran off like that! I began looking in different rooms, and corners. All of the sudden, I heard a laugh. "Ahaha! Such a little plush can eat a lot!"

I jumped at the opportunity and knocked on the door, "Ummm, excuse me. May I enter?"

"It's open!" a male voice said.

I opened the door and saw Kero's face full of whipped cream. I face palmed, I shouldn't have been surprised. "There you are!" I cried as I ran towards him, that's when I realised that he was surrounded by men.

"Oi, who are you?!" questioned a boy with long pink hair.

I bowed, "S-sorry for barging in! My name is Sakura." I looked up at them and saw that they were smiling.

A man with blonde hair laughed, "It's alright, so you're the little lady that Byakuran is holding prisoner, huh."

I hesitated when he said prisoner. "Yeah, I guess so."

"My name is Gamma. It's a pleasure to finally meet you, Yuni wouldn't stop talking about you." He joked. I giggled and looked at the blushing vice-leader. We both sat down and began talking about how I ended up here. I only told them about my attempts to escape, but I made sure that my powers and Tsuna stayed out of it. Even if they are nice, I needed to make sure that they were trustworthy. I knew that Yuni was very honest girl, thanks to my powers, but I was hesitant with Gamma's men around us. The guards in the room were constantly staring at me when they thought that I wasn't looking. Even if I wasn't looking, I could literally feel there stare on my back, causing me to get shivers up my spine. I glanced at Kero who was sleeping soundly with a full stomach. Taking this opportunity, I made an excuse.

"I think that Kero had enough cookies and cake for one day, I'll take him back to our chamber." I said as I got up.

"I'll escort you back, alone." Yuni volunteered, giving everyone a look. I was going to argue against it, but no sound came out of my mouth. So, instead, I waved goodbye and bowed to them respectfully before Yuni and I were out in the corridor. There was a second of silence, until Yuni interrupted it.

"I'm sorry," she said softly, "about my men back there, it was unusual of them to act that way."

I shook my head in disagreement, "They have every right to be suspicious of me."

"The tension was so heavy, that you used Kero-chan as an excuse." Yuni pointed out with a hint of sadness.

I winced in guilt, Yuni wasn't the problem. The way I tried to excuse myself probably hurts her.

"I-I'm sorry," I stuttered, "I never meant to..."

Yuni interrupted, "It's alright, like I said, the tension was probably choking you to death." She turned to the grand windows we were passing by. "I know how you feel about this place." Outside, the sun was slowly setting with a mix of golden orange, yellow and hints of red. Yuni's eyes seemed far, as if she was thinking about something deeply.

I took her right hand in both of my own and smiled, "If you want a friend to talk to, I'll be here for you." She smiled back, but her eyes were still filled with uncertainty.

We made it to my room, which was surprisingly far, and said our goodbyes. I watched her cape fly about as she walked down the hall. I closed the door and opened the lights in my room. Kero flew out of my pocket with a happy glow.

"Man, they had great cookies!~" Kero happily said as he floated by my side. I sat on the edge of my bed. "...I guess so..."

Worried Kero landed on my lap, "Is everything alright, Sakura?"

I jumped back surprised, "O-of course." As I stood up, I accidentally knocked Kero down from my lap, although, I didn't notice since I was too busy thinking about, well, everything.

Maybe some fresh air might help me, I thought as I opened the porch double doors.

I leaned on the ramp as I looked up in the sky. The clouds surrounded the full moon with gentleness. I reached out with my hand and covered the moon with my palm as I pretended as if i grasped it. It was a silly action, but I felt as if I could fly towards it.

Suddenly, there was a sudden tickle up my spine. There was a presence nearby.

I squinted and saw a blurry figure approaching the area. As it got closer, I could see some more details after another. Kero came zooming outside, finally realising what was happening.

"Sakura...!" Kero said.

I cut him off, "Yeah, I see him, too." Why is he here?

It was Tsuna.
