Chapter 2: The person I have been searching for.

Sakura stared at the person curiously. The aura around him was very familiar....like someone whom she knew a long time ago. Leaning against the wall was a boy who was about the same age as her. He had silver hair and eyes. The way he dressed, proved that he was not a white winged angel. Black clothing covered him, but his sleeves were torn and tattered and so were his long dark pants. Something dripped from them. Something..that looked like...

"Blood!" Sakura gasped and ran forward.

The moment the boy saw her approaching him, he became hostile and growled. "Get away from me! or i'll kill you!" The injured individual made an attempt to stand up and confront her, but was bleeding too badly from his wounds and fell back against the wall for support. Sakura tried to help him up but her hands were slapped away. "I don't need someone like you to help me! I don't need anybody's pity!" He stated in an agitated tone and glared at the high summoner.

"He's here!" Someone shouted. Soon, the alley was filled with soldiers and they were all getting ready to blast the injured boy with powerful magic spells. "No!" Sakura protested. The soldiers moved back, stunned by the presence of the high summoner. "I shall be in charge of this person. So all of you stay away!" She stood in front of the silver haired boy in order to protect him. "But...my lady...he's a dark angel. Yet he still breeched the border line and came here. So he must be put to death! You can't..just take him like that!" A soldier implored. "I can and I will! How could you sentence someone to death so easily? Just because of his race? He didn't do anything, i'm sure of that. If you won't let me take him away, I'll get nasty!" Sakura readied a holy spell at them.

The silver haired boy's eyes softened. Why was she helping him? A stranger...to be exact, a dark angel. Before he could think any further, he blacked out.

"Wake up...it's okay now."

The silver haired boy blinked his eyes. This voice..the one he has been hearing for so long. The one who would save him. How he longed to find the person and hold her tight, knowing that it's all over and that he would not be hurt further.

This time, the silver haired boy really opened his eyes and stared at the ceiling. "Oh..good. You're awake now." A voice came from his side. He turned quickly in shock and came face to face with a smiling Sakura.

"Woah!" he exclaimed while blushing, and dropped off the bed.

"It's nice to see that you're okay. I was getting worried then. My name's Sakura, what's yours?" Sakura continued smiling and held out her left hand to help him up.

"I.....uh...." He stuttered. In the dark alley, it was hard to see her face...but now in the light, she looked really beautiful. "My name's....Kurei."

"oh....nice name." The high summoner asked him to hold out his hands so that she could bandage them. "It'll hurt a bit...but i'll try to lessen the pain." Sakura poured a liquid on his wounds and Kurei winced in pain. "I'm sorry!" Sakura gasped. In her panic, she kissed Kurei's wounds and said, "Here. The pain has gone right?" Kurei blushed.

Kurei:..... ( I wish she would stop being so cute. >< I find it hard to resist. )
Sakura: huh? Something wrong?
Kurei: Uh...nothing.
Sakura: Oh....by the way, where are you from? and..what were you doing here?
Kurei: ..........
Sakura: It's okay if you don't wanna tell...
Kurei: Nah..its okay. *takes a deep breath* I'm the younger prince of the two dark winged angels princes. In short, i'm of royal blood. My mother sent me here today. She wanted me to get rid of the "powerful force" that the white winged angels possess. It's said to be able to wipe us all out in one blow. So we can't take any chances.
Sakura:....The force you're talking about...I think it's me.
Kurei: WHAT?!
Sakura: I'm a high summoner..I can do this ritual called "final summoning". It's a great force, and could be able to wipe out a lot of things. Like the bringer of life and death...that sort of thing.
Kurei: But...I..can't just kill you like that.
*Sakura smiles*
Sakura: You're a very kind person deep inside actually. Sometimes you don't need to hide that side from other people.
Kurei:.......(great. Probably I've fallen for her. GET A GRIP ON YOURSELF KUREI! ><)
Sakura: How are you gonna explain to your mother if you don't kill me?
Kurei: I'll just say I failed. It doesn't matter if she punishes me. I'm used to the pain anyways...besides, if I really die this time, then maybe i would be released from my pain. It'll be okay.
Sakura: No, It'll be not okay!
Kurei: Huh? Why not?
Sakura: Because I don't wanna see you die! Since you're my friend now, I won't let that happen!
Kurei: friend...huh...
*Kurei looks down sadly*
Kurei: I never had a friend all my life. Not even one...all I knew..was pain...and more pain. I was supposed to die. So that..my brother can ascend the throne easily and smoothly. I've been chained up all my life. I can't see the light anymore.
*A tear falls from Kurei's silver eyes*
Sakura: I....

Silence befell them...then suddenly Sakura leaned forward and hugged him tightly. Kurei eyes widened at first, but slowly...he got used to the warmth and closed his eyes in content. Sakura didn't want to let go. He seemed very fragile and scared to her. All she wanted to do was to protect him. But...there's something more. Something inside of her that made her confused. Why was she acting this way? It's...not right. Is it?

The door was flung open and there stood Kou. His teal coloured eyes widened at the sight of the two of them.

"Sakura...how...could you?"
