Chapter 2: Ice and flowers

The grass was so soft, even birds sang so beautiful. Sun's rays were gently touching….

Wait!! GRASS?????

Her inner self sighed in relieve when Sakura finally started think over by herself. Sakura ignored her inner self who started celebrating this simple fact. Sakura cursed vulgarly at her inner self when her inner self told her to fuck off.

She sat up and looked around. She noticed trees, bushes, some flowers and a spring. Sakura tried to persuade herself that she isn't crazy or still asleep.

What the hell happened? I sat on the window frame and then came Souta into my room and I fell down. Then that light. Shit my ankle hurts. I guess I was lucky, I should have all my bones turned into a puzzle. But now…… WHAT IS THIS FUCKING PLACE!!!!

Sakura carefully stood up and noticed that except her ankle she is alright. Her bare legs were pretty dirty as well as her arms.

I already took a shower but I think that bath will be better. Even with that bloody ankle. She quickly undressed herself and slipped into the crystal water. Her ankle didn't hurt so much in water and she started relaxing.

Hmm, not bad. I like this temperature. It's almost like in Kyoto. It feels really good. Sakura mentally purred. I can make worry about everything after bath. She didn't notice pair of golden eyes that were watching her from the forest.

----------------------

Who is she? And what she's doing at this place? Is she crazy? She is definitely very brave or stupid. This place is dangerous for a human. Especially for such a beauty. Kami, that is body. I don't know a demon woman with such a figure. Hmm, maybe I should stay a little longer. Or maybe... He grinned and stepped toward the spring.

----------------------

Sakura was floating under water and let her thinks floating with her body. She looked at her hair which was everywhere around her.

Everything here is so calm and quiet. I would like to stay here forever. Alone. Nobody around me who I would hurt. Nobody to hurt me. Unfortunately… I need to breath. Sakura came out from water and almost jumped from her skin when she heard a smooth voice.

“How is water?”

“Wet!” she gave exhausting information to a man who was sitting on the shore. She looked at him closely. She could tell he was really tall. And handsome. His silky silver hair was calmly floating in warm air. She notice fox ears and golden eyes. And than it hit her.

Shit around him is yoki. That is really great. She thought sarcastically.

“That is quite stupid answer.” He told her.

“At a stupid question, stupid answer.” She replied spitefully. Sakura stood in a place where water reached her stomach. She had her full breast covered by her arms, but still it was quite an interesting view of her.

That's strange. She isn't even embarrassed. What a girl!

“Can you turn back, so I can go out from water and dress myself?” she asked him calmly. He grinned at her and seductively closed his eyes.

“I don't want to turn back, but you can still go out from water.”

Sakura smiled for herself.

As you want you lecher!! She walked to the shore and without hesitation jumped from water near to him. He had only few seconds when he could admire her naked and wet body. Sakura, still on her knees, surprised him with attack.

“SPIRIT BLAST!” a ball of energy hit him as it was a hammer and sent him ten meters away into bushes. Sakura quickly started dressed. Right when she finished, she felt how his yoki rose up and from ground around her sprout out thin runners and wrapped her arms and legs. She cried out in pain when one of runners touched her ankle. The runners dragged her down on the ground. Sakura started loosing her control into pure panic.

She is good, but not enough. Thought the demon coldly to himself. Than he saw her terrified face and immediately dragged runners from her. She was breathing heavily her eyes wide. She almost didn't notice that she is free already. He sat down next to her and griped her shoulders.

“Calm down, girl. It was just a joke. I didn't mean to scare you. It's alright.”

She slowly calm down. Her eyes were close again, but when she opened them he could see, she was fine. She moved her legs and cried in pain. Her ankle hurt like hell and she must bit her bottom lip if she didn't want to start cry.

“I didn't know you are hurt.”

“Now you do.” She told him dryly. He smirked.

She is a pretty wild kitten. Maybe I should found out something more about her.

“Anyway, what's your name?” he asked her when he started to help to her ankle.

“What's yours?” she asked him impertinently. He looked up from her ankle and frowned.

“I asked you first!”

“So you can first answer!” she replied lazily. She didn't see what he was doing to her, but she slowly falling asleep.

She is definitely interesting person. I guess I like her humour.

“Kurama.”

“What?”

“My name is Kurama. And yours?”
“Sakura.”

-------------------------

The next time, when Sakura awoke was in dry cave on soft bed from dry herbs. The inner cave was illuminated by fireplace. She was watching shadows dancing on the wall and artifacts lying on the ground.

I must fell asleep. What soft smell. Maybe thyme and elder. This is comfortable but I would like to know where am I.

Sakura turned her head and saw Kurama how he was sitting near to her. His hair had orange tinge from fire and his face as well. She could only image his white clothes and golden eyes now focused on something what she couldn't see. She moaned when she moved and her muscles protested against it. For some reason she felt so exhausted. He turned to her when he heard her moan.

“Finally awake?”

She weakly smiled and for a moment closed her eyes. Kurama felt strange feeling in his chest. She looked so innocent and vulnerable. He smirked when he remember her attack. But then he was overcome with her beauty again. When she opened her eyes again he noticed that they are deeply blue like a sky during winter.

“Why did you bring me here, Kurama?”

“If I left you there, you would be killed already! Around here is many demons, who would kill you without any reason, they would do it just for fun.”

“And you not?” she asked him with hint of smile. Kurama smirked at her and inclined his head on side.

“Maybe later, but now I'm wonder why a human like you appeared on place which is in the middle of demons territories.”

“It's weird story. Are you sure you want to hear it?”

Kurama raised one of his thin eyebrows and nodded. Sakura sighed and raised her upper body on her elbow. She felt like if her body was heavier than it should be.

“Actually, I was sitting on the window frame and fell down. But before I reached the ground I saw red light and the next thing which I remember is awakening on grass near the spring. Pretty crazy, don't you think?” she expect everything but not that Kurama take it seriously. He looked at her, his golden eyes reflected flames from fireplace.

“I've never heard anything about something like this but it doesn't mean that it isn't possible. I know one person who had a really big library. We can ask him for help.”

“We?” she asked him suspiciously. He grinned at her and showed his sharp fangs.

“Do you really think that I would let such interesting person like you, go and annoy Sesshomaru all alone? Hmm, I don't think so. But we have to wait a few days until he will return to his home.”

“I think it will be easier if you just show me direction to Tokyo and I go to home by myself.” She frowned at him. Kurama blinked.

“What the hell is Tokyo.” He asked her confusingly. Sakura's face turned pale when she heard it.

“What the hell is this place?” she laid back on bed and firmly commanded herself to not cry. She desperately wanted to go back. Back to her family. She saw them only for one day and now she is here.

“Don't worry I will help you.” This offer surprised him self.

“Just wait some days and we can go.”

She turned her face to him and asked him.

“And what about your friend?” she pointed at another bed, which was nearby her. She saw how Kurama stunned and turned his back to her. His voice was low and cold when he answered her.

“Kuronue is dead. He died two weeks ago.”

Sakura's eyes grow soft when she heard this. She reached her hand and gently touched Kurama's arm.

“I'm sorry, Kurama. You must miss him.”

He turned to her, surprise in his eyes. He saw on her pure honesty.

Why is she sorry? It wasn't her fault. She didn't even know him. And why she cares about me? She doesn't know me either. She is really an interesting person. Maybe I should seduce her. She is too wonderful for someone else. At last it will be fun.

“Just one more thing; Why do you want to help me?”

“I told you already. You are interesting. I'm fascinated in interesting thing.” He didn't see her frown. She silently cursed. She didn't like when someone near to her tried to be mysterious. It didn't matter that the person made idiot from himself, but Sakura spent most of her time found out about that mystery, because she was always too much curious. What's more, she didn't like Kurama's talk about fascination in interesting things. She felt like if she was little animal in cage. Some strange animal.

“And you think that your friend Sesshomaru can help me back to home?”

“Hmm, he isn't my friend. Lord of Western Land is quite unfriendly. He owes me something and yes we know each other for long time. I guess he will be more than glad if he will able to help you. Your beauty can blind mind of every man.” said Kurama, his whisper seductively husky. Now it was Sakura who stunned.

“Moron.” She growled at him. Kurama looked surprised but before he could say something she got up and walked towards exit of cave.

“You should stay here. It's not safe for you to be outside. Do you want some demon to kill you? Besides, your ankle need more rest. It does not heal yet.”

“Those herbs are driving me crazy. I need some fresh air and the weather looks like if should start raining. Don't worry, I will be fine.” When she was gone Kurama frowned.

Why she doesn't like compliment. Hmm, I have to change tactic. She is too pretty for me to let her go. I really want to find out how good she can be in bed. My herbs are driving her crazy, but her body is driving crazy ME! Kurama smiled coldly when he thought about her. He knew how to seduce her. It wasn't hard. Everything what he need was one special herb.

------------------------------

Sakura was walking in forest deeply in her thought. She had a bad feeling. She wasn't sure if she can trust to Kurama, but she hadn't other choice. When she felt cold wind, she wrapped her arms around her shoulders as protection. The painful memories returned to her, but Sakura didn't allow them to bother her.

It will be definitely alright. At last I have my power to protect me. I don't allow anyone to hurt me again. Besides, I guess Kurama is fine guy after all. He doesn't acting like that boys whom I know from home. Kurama definitely isn't such child. Maybe that's why I'm little afraid of him.
