Ai no Tenchi!
Author's Notes:
hehehe!! this is my first attempt at writing a fic since primary
school, so pls excuse if it's poor :P anyway, just a few things...
first, this is supposed to be like an anime, but my fanart is so poor
that it wouldn't do it justice for me to put in any drawings... no
doubt comparisons will be made to card captor sakura shoujo ai fanfics
(which has already happened...), which i'll explain by saying 'i love
ccs fanfics!' and no doubt they've influenced me... also, i swear i
named by character before i knew sakura's name was kinomoto. swear!!
but sakura is a totally cool and cute name, and i actually copied it
from sakura wars' sakura...
ooh, before i forget... they main characters have japanese names, but
the setting is not meant to be japanese, and i haven't included any
japanese dialogue. sorta inspired by the dub of zoids shinseiki/0,
which this'll eventually become a fanfic of...
also, the characters are girls, but i'm a boy, so if some
dialogue/actions/thoughts etc are completely unbelievable, pls excuse
me, and possibly provide feedback! any feedback would be greatly
appreciated!
can't think of anything else to add... pls enjoy!!

"Good morning class!"
"Good morning, Miss Spencer."
Miss Spencer's 6th grade class rose in unison as their teacher
entered the room. The young but motherly looking Miss Spencer had
always been well liked and respected by her pupils.
"I'd like to introduce someone special this morning, she's our
new classmate..."
Miss Spencer extended an open hand toward the doorway, and the
children's eyes followed. With great hesitance, in stepped a young
girl. She had lovely sky blue hair down to her shoulder blades and
matching baby blue eyes. She was blushing visibly with embarrassment
with the gaze of a room full of strangers centred on her, but still
managed a slight bow.
At the back of the class, Hikari Nakamura almost audibly gasped.
This newcomer was the most beautiful girl she had ever seen. Not that
Hikari was by any means an ugly duckling. The cuteness of her emerald
green hair braided into pigtails was matched only by her mischievous
azure eyes. As hard as it was to comprehend, she could almost feel
that the new girl in the class would take up a special place in her
life.
"... Let's all give a warm welcome to Sakura Miyamoto!"
Miss Spencer's sweet voice brought Hikari back to earth. The
tension in the class eased with the sound of polite applause.
"Would you like to say something Sakura?"
"... Hi ... Um, it's nice to meet you all..."
Sakura's voice sounded like bells from heaven to Hikari's ears.
She could see through her nervousness that Sakura was a humble and
caring girl, one who would make a most loyal friend...
"Sakura's family is new to Dawn Dew Village, so I'd like you all
to try and make Sakura and her family feel welcome here. Sakura, if
you'd like to have a seat now?"
"Yes Miss Spencer. Thank you."
Sakura bowed to the teacher and again to the class, before
moving to the seat Miss Spencer was indicating to. The seat next to
Hikari.
Hikari couldn't take her eyes off her new classmate as she
settled into her seat and unpacked her materials for class. When she
was ready, Sakura noticed Hikari's stare and turned to face her. She
smiled shyly and gave a quick nod.
Hikari's face started to burn red.
'What's this tingly feeling inside me?? Why do I get these weird
feelings aroung the new girl?'
Hikari managed to regain her composure and smiled her most
charming smile. Despite already being one of the most popular girls in
school, she was determined to make Sakura her newest friend.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Hi Kari!!"
Sakura ran up to hug her best friend. It had been three years
since they first met, and since then, had become closer than two girls
could ever be. Sakura often thought of the effort that Hikari had put
in to make her feel like this was her hometown, and how she had spent
so much of her time with her even though she already had a host of
friends .
Hikari hugged Sakura close. The girl who was once the new kid in
school had turned out to be everything Hikari had hoped. She was her
best, most trusted, most caring and most loving friend. Sakura helped
fill part of the emptiness in Hikari's life, being the only child in a
family without a father, as he had passed away before Hikari was born.
To Hikari, Sakura was almost... a sister, but then not...
Hikari developed a crush on Sakura before they even met, but
now, it was becoming something different. She didn't just love being
with Sakura, or just see her as a beautiful girl, now she was getting
attracted to her.
"What's our first class today, Kura?"
It was the start of a new semester, and Hikari was still getting
used to her timetable.
"We've got maths."
"Oh! I forgot to do the homework!"
"Kari", Sakura chided in a motherly tone, "Didn't you say you
were going to do that yesterday afternoon?"
"Yeah", admitted Hikari sheepishly. "But I got distracted..."
'Dreaming about being with you...', she didn't add.
Sakura frowned mock disapprovingly, before taking her friend's
hand, "Come on, we're a little late."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hikari headed to her locker after her last class. After packing
away the books she didn't need for homework, she headed to the hall
entrance.
"Hey Hikari!"
Hikari turned, shook out of the half-daze she seemed to be in
all too often.
It was Jamie, one of her best male friends. He was leaning
forward in a bow of sorts, and had a slight blush on his youthful
face.
"Hey, what's up Jamie?"
"Um... I was, um, thinking of the dance next week, and I, um,
was wondering if you were going with anyone?"
Hikari blushed and tried desparately of something to say that
wasn't completely daft. She had of course thought she was going to go
with Sakura, but now that she had to seriously think about it, that
perhaps wasn't such a good idea.
"Um, if you've already got a partner that's fine..."
Jamie's face went a darker shade of red, and his clear brown
eyes lost some of the hope they were filled with a minute earlier.
"Oh no, I haven't got anyone to go with! I, ah, I just hadn't
really thought about it yet! Um, yeah, I'd love to go with you Jamie."
"Really?! Um, that's great! I guess I'll see you on Monday then.
Have a nice weekend!"
"You too!", Hikari waved and smiled as a rather relieved Jamie
ran out the door.
'Well, I guess I'm not going to be going with Sakura...', Hikari
lamented.
As she left the school, she saw Sakura waiting by the gate, as
usual. She seemed rather interested at something down the street.
"Well, Jamie is certainly pretty happy about something", she
said as Hikari walked up.
"Yeah, he was beaming after I said I'd got to the dance with
him."
"Really? So do you like him then?", Sakura teased as she gave
Hikari a slight nudge to the ribs.
Her friend blushed profusely, "Well, yes... but not like that!"
Sakura had a quiet little giggle to herself. As embarrassed as
she was, Hikari couldn't help but smile at seeing her friend in such a
jovial mood.
"Hey! It's not like I'm in love with him or anything!!"
Sakura regained her composure, and put on a straight face. "I
think Jamie is cute. He's genuine about the way he feels about people,
unlike some of the other guys at school."
Hikari felt a tad guilty as Sakura said that, but quickly got
over it.
"Hey Sakura? Do you want to stay over at my place tonight? We
can watch some videos or something."
"Okay. Let me call my parents first."
Hikari walked on with a contented smile as her friend beside got
her phone from her shoulder bag.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hikari let out an overexaggerated sigh as she opened the front
door of her home, and heaved her bag inside.
"Hi mum! We're home!"
"We're home? Oh, hello Sakura. I should have known you'd be with
Hikari."
Hikari's mother, Minako, welcomed the two girls with a warm
smile. She was always congenial, but there her eyes always had a
twinge of sadness, after the loss of her husband.
"Hi Aunty Mina", Sakura greeted her friend's mother with a
familiar bow.
"How many times do I have to tell you, Sakura? You needn't be so
formal around here. You should learn some manners from her, Hikari."
Sakura giggled while Hikari gave her mother a 'don't embarrass
me mum' glance.
"Sorry", Minako said mockingly, "Would you girls like a drink or
something to eat?"
"Yes mum, I'm starving!" All three walked into the kitchen, and
the two girls took seats as Minako went to the fridge.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
After dinner that evening, Hikari and Sakura went upstairs to
Hikari's bedroom.
"Did you want to watch a movie or something, Sakura?"
Sakura nodded and proceeded to pick out a video from Hikari's
collection. The two girls ended up watching a soppy romance about a
girl who was unlucky in love, but eventually fell in love with a sweet
guy who was her best friend, and had been by her side throughout the
story.
By the end, Sakura had gone all watery-eyed. "That's so sweet...
falling in love with your best friend... that's so romantic...", she
blubbered between sniffles. "Do you think I'll be that lucky Kari?"
Hikari was immediately taken aback, having been in her own
romantic fantasy for the last hour or so.
"Um... sure Kura, sometimes you never know how much your friends
really love you..."
Sakura gave Hikari an innocent hug, which left her blushing. She
felt a great desire to tell Sakura how she felt, but was so scared at
how she might react. With her friend close to her like this,
everything felt so right. Hikari's fingertips found their way into
Sakura's delicate hair...
"Oh, look at the time! Do you think we better go to bed soon?"
Sakura gently freed herself from Hikari's arms and got up.
"Um, okay. I suppose you don't have anything to change into,
huh?"
"Yeah, is it okay if I borrow something to wear tonight?"
"Sure", Hikari opened up her wardrobe to see what she could lend
to Sakura, "What have we got in here?"
Hikari pulled out a cute nightshirt with an angel and lots of
hearts on the front.
"How's this?"
"Anything's fine, Kari. If you'll excuse me...", said Sakura as
she made her way to the adjoining bathroom to bathe and change.
Sakura emerged from the bathroom a short time later looking warm
and refreshed. Her normally sky blue hair had taken a darker hue as it
was still damp from bathing.
'She looks so lovely...'
Hikari's eyes glazed over as she stared at Sakura. Sakura looked
back with a quizzical expression.
"Are you okay Kari?"
"Mmmm... Hmmm... Oh? What? Oh, I better get my clothes, they're
somewhere here...", Kari buried her head in her wardrobe to hide her
blushes.
When Hikari had finished showering, she found Sakura sitting
patiently on her bed. She sat down beside her, leaning slightly
against her shoulder.
"Kari. Your hair's all wet."
Sakura buried her fingers in Hikari's hair and combed it gently,
as if to illustrate her point. Small droplets of water ran down her
fingers as she did so. Hikari lent back into Sakura and closed her
eyes, savouring the pleasant caress of her friend's soft hands. It
felt so nice!
"Kari, are you going to dry your hair?"
"Oh, can't you just keep doing that? I'm sure that'll get the
water out."
"Stop being silly", Sakura teased, "Your bed is getting wet
too."
"Fine", Hikari conceded as she headed back to the bathroom.
When Hikari had finished drying her hair and returned to the
bedroom, she found Sakura already in bed, curled in a foetal position
and sucking on her thumb. Both girls often shared a bed, as Hikari
didn't like to make Sakura sleep on a bedroll on the floor, and her
bed was large enough for two anyway.
Hikari carefully lifted the covers and slid into bed, edging
herself closer to Sakura. She had fantasised so often of what this
might otherwise mean. Hikari bit her lip softly as she plucked up her
courage and extended her hand, resting it lightly on Sakura's hip.
Sakura stirred and moaned quietly, making a slight gurgling sound with
her thumb still in her mouth. Hikari's resolve shattered and she
quickly retracted her hand.
Sakura rolled over to face Hikari. "...Mmmm... I think I fell
asleep... what's the time?", Sakura asked groggily.
Hikari twitched nervously and tried desparately to stop
blushing. "Um, it's, um, about 12 I think", she stammered.
"Hmmm... I'm so tired... I think I'll go back to sleep...
goodnight Kari."
"Goodnight Sakura", Hikari whispered, switching off the lamp
beside the bed.
When she was confident Sakura was asleep, she leant over an
planted a tender kiss on her friend's soft cheek. "I love you..."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hikari was in a real dilemma. Two years ago she admitted to
herself that she had genuine feelings about her best friend, but she
still hadn't done anything about it. It was pretty hard to imagine
that Hikari and Sakura had met only five years ago, because to Hikari,
Sakura felt like a life-long companion. And hopefully she would be.
Hikari stared blankly into the distance as she walked alone to
school. She wondered what would be worse. Telling Sakura how she felt,
and being rejected by her one true love, or living out the rest of her
life with a repressed heart.
It was already hard enough finding lame excuses to reject the
numerous advances directed at her from amorous boys. Luckily for her,
Sakura hadn't started dating, saying that she wasn't ready to get into
those things... yet. What would happen if Sakura did find a boy she
liked and wanted to be with?
'Arrgghhh!! There are too many questions and problems!'
It would be best if Hikari just told Sakura her feelings, and
Sakura said she felt the same, and they'd weep and fall into each
others' arms.
'Obviously! But it's not that easy!!'
Caught up in her thoughts, Hikari was surprised to find that she
had already made it to school. She was daydreaming like this all too
often. Sakura was waiting, as usual, by the school gate. Over the past
couple of years, Sakura had grown a fair bit taller, and her figure
had matured significantly. Hikari was always pretty surprised that
Sakura wasn't more popular with the boys, although her opinion of her
friend was probably a tad biased.
"Good morning!"
"Hey Kura, how's it going?"
"Not bad. Did you bring your gym gear?"
"Yeah. I don't forget everything, you know", Hikari teased.
"Sorry, I didn't mean it that way." Sakura blushed slightly
before Hikari jabbed her lightly in the ribs and both girls giggled as
they headed to their first class of the day.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Gym was always complicated for Hikari, but then again,
everything else was too. She was with Sakura for most of every day
(physically and in her head), but what happened in the change rooms
was a bit too similar to Hikari's fantasies than she was comfortable
with. Despite it being the first class of the day, the students were
still required to wear their uniforms into school, and change into
their sports gear before gym.
Hikari followed Sakura into the girl's locker room and set her
bag on the bench beside her friend's. Sakura was totally composed as
she slipped her uniform shirt over her head and reached into her bag
to get her gym shirt, but Hikari was a different story altogether. She
couldn't help but stare at her friend's gorgeous figure, and felt as
if her face was on fire.
Sakura noticed Hikari as her head popped out from under her
shirt.
"Are you okay Hikari?" she asked, as her arms emerged from
hiding as well.
Hikari had to use all of her powers of concentration to free
herself from the daze she was trapped in. She quickly turned away and
rummaged through her bag.
"Ummm... yeah, where's my shirt?" Her voice could hardly be
heard with her face stuffed so deep in her bag.
Sakura let out an exasperated sigh and had a little smile to
herself. Hikari was always so silly!
"Here let me help you."
Hikari stepped back as Sakura quickly ducked into her bag and
withdrew her gym shirt.
'Maybe she'll help me undress too...'
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'I really gotta do something about my crush on Sakura...'
That was it. Hikari had made up her mind and was determined that
one way or another, she was going to let her best friend know how she
really felt. It didn't matter if Sakura didn't feel the same way, and
Hikari was sure that they'd be able to remain friends at least.
'But what can I do?? I can't just tell her straight off, that
just wouldn't be right.'
There was a long weekend coming up, and that gave Hikari an
idea. She would plan a romantic getaway for the two of them, except,
it couldn't be obviously romantic, and set the right mood to reveal
her long-suffered secret. Now all she had to do was enact her
brilliant scheme!
"Are you dreaming again Miss Nakamura?!"
Thinking it was her teacher, Hikari bolted to her feet.
"Hikari, what are you doing?" Sakura sweatdropped as her friend
stood to attention in the middle of their lunch.
"Huh? Oh... I don't know, what am I doing?"
"You're asking me? You're so silly Hikari!" Sakura took her
friend by the hand and got her to sit down again.
"Hey Sakura, I was thinking... Do you wanna do anything for the
long weekend?"
"Did you have something in mind?" Sakura asked as she took a
bite of her dumpling.
"Um, I thought maybe we could go up to the hot springs at Mount
Altera."
"That sounds great!" Sakura's face lit up, and Hikari's did too
in response. "But won't that be really expensive?"
"I think my mum would let us go. I haven't been on a holiday in
ages anyway."
"Hikari, I can't do that..."
"Come on! It'll be so much fun! I tell you what, we'll go ask my
mum after school and see if it's okay, alright?"
"Okay. I wonder if the hot springs are really as nice as people
say?"
This time, it was Sakura who slipped into a little daydream.
Hikari, on the other hand, was busy planning the next step in her epic
strategy.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The sun shone down cheerily as Hikari and Sakura stepped off the
coach. A gentle breeze wafted through the trees, and looking down the
hillside gave a spectacular view. They were here. Mount Altera!
Sakura could hardly contain her glee, rushing to pick up their
bags and getting ready to explore the resort. It looked fantastic. The
walkways leading to the individual chalets were lined with beautiful
flowers and shrubs that neither girl had seen before. From their
position, they could just make out the steam rising from what had to
be the hot springs.
"Let's go!!" Sakura's face broke out into the biggest smile ever
as she thrust an ecstatic fist into the air.
"Sakura, I've never seen you this excited before! I think we'd
better get our room to leave all our stuff before we have a look
around."
After picking up their key from the resort reception, the two
girls headed to their chalet. Each of the little houses was separated
from the others by trees, and they seemed to be fused in with the
natural surroundings. Even though there were many buildings in the
area, it hardly looked like a village or town.
When they got to their chalet, Hikari was impressed. The
entrance opened up into a comfortable sitting area with a small
kitchen and dining room at the back. Beyond this, the chalet opened up
to a spacious balcony, which overlooked the valley below. A ladder led
up to the bedroom upstairs, giving the impression of a child's bunk
bed. This was going to be great!
"Do you wanna get changed while I unpack?" Hikari asked.
"Yes please!" It was usually impossible to get Sakura to leave
the work to Hikari, but she could hardly contain her eagerness to get
into the hot springs!
It wasn't long before both girls were into their swimming gear
and ready to hit the hot springs. As they approached the springs, the
air became thick with mist, and their sense of anticipation grew. The
springs were screened off to form rooms of sorts, and Hikari and
Sakura were lucky enough to get one that was unoccupied. The resort
had also provided flowers, floating candles and bath oils to make the
experience that little bit better.
Sakura was the first to dip a tentative foot into the water. She
hesitated just as the tips of her toes got wet.
"Is it okay? There's nothing wrong is there?"
Sakura turned and smiled. "It's just that this is my first time
in a hot spring, and I want to savour the occassion!"
Hikari rolled her eyes and wade into the delightfully hot water.
Although she was hardly tired, Hikari felt as if the water worked to
relax her muscles and ease away her fatigue.
"Mmmm... It feels like the water's washing away all my
troubles", Sakura muttered as if reading Hikari's mind. Both girls
closed their eyes and lay back, murmuring contented sighs as they
lapped up the hospitality of nature.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
That evening, as Sakura was bathing, Hikari made herself busy
downstairs. She had already placed her order for their dinner to be
brought to the room, and was hurriedly trying to set up candles to get
the mood just right. With the sun quickly setting behind the hills and
no lights on in the chalet, the candles basked the surroundings in a
warm orange-yellow glow. Hikari hoped she hadn't forgotten anything,
because everything seemed perfectly set!
Hikari had to wait another couple of minutes before the room
service arrived. It was delivered by a fresh-faced young boy, and had
been magnificantly presented on silver dishes. Hikari was too anxious
to be much conversation, and the valet left with only a brief exchange
of pleasantries.
As if on cue, Sakura emerged from the bathroom, still towel
drying her hair. She blinked in surprise at the absence of artificial
light in the chalet, but initially didn't think much of it. As she
made her way down the ladder though, her impressions of the occasion
changed considerably.
"What's with all this, Hikari?"
Hikari blushed profusely, and mentally kicked herself for not
thinking of an innocent excuse. "Um, I thought that... uh, to
celebrate our holiday, we should have a special dinner!"
"This looks so nice! Everything's been done really nicely",
Sakura seemed genuinely impressed as she took in the ambience, and
Hikari let out a relieved sigh.
"Shall we get started with dinner?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hikari rose from the table at the conclusion of their dinner to
finish of the night with a good coffee. Sakura leant back in her chair
and stretched her arms contentedly.
"That was the best meal I've had in a while. Thanks Kari!"
"Oh, I didn't really do much", Hikari couldn't justifiably take
the credit, but was inwardly delighted that Sakura had enjoyed
herself.
Hikari returned to her seat after serving Sakura a large mug of
her special mocha. As she cradled her own mug, she looked deeply into
her special friend's eyes.
'Everything tonight has gone according to plan... It's now or
never!'
Hikari firmed her resolve and pushed all her fears aside. This
was the perfect moment to tell Sakura how she felt, and she wasn't
going to let this opportunity escape her.
"Sakura... There was actually another reason I set everything up
tonight... I've got something I really need to tell you..."
In her nervousness, Hikari could barely maintain eye contact.
Conversely, Sakura had no idea what her friend was on about, and
tilted her head quizzically.
"What's up Kari?"
Hikari leant forward and took Sakura's delicate hand in her own.
"Sakura... I... I love you..." Hikari words were scarcely a whisper.
Sakura blushed slightly and sat up, having unintentionally
leaned forward to hear Hikari's confession.
"Don't be silly Hikari! I know you love me. I love you too. Ever
since we first met I knew you were always gonna be my best friend..."
"I don't mean like that..."
"Oh..." Sakura looked a little sheepish as she the realisation
hit her. Her mind went temporarily blank as she tried to fathom what
had just transpired.
Sakura's dazed expression made Hikari even more nervous than she
already was. Thoughts filled her head of Sakura being completely
disgusted and leaving her forever. It was more than she could bear to
imagine.
"Um... Sakura I'm sorry... I shouldn't have said that... I can
understand if you don't feel the same and..."
"No, Kari, it's alright", Sakura reassured her friend, "I was
just surprised, that's all. I just never expected something like that
from you. Do you really feel that way?"
Hikari's hopes lifted exponentially as Sakura's words reached
her ears. "Yes! Sakura, I loved you for so long, but I've never had
the courage to tell you. I was so scared you'd stop being my friend or
something..."
Sakura silenced her friend with a comforting smile, before
rising to her feet and outstretching her arms. Hikari was almost
delirious with joy as she got up and gratefully accepted her love's
warm embrace.
"Kari, no matter what happens, I'll never stop being your
friend. You should know that."
"I'm so silly...", Hikari's voice was little more than a mumble
with her head buried in Sakura's shoulder.
'So everything turned out just right! Or almost...'
A mischievous glint emerged in Hikari's eye as she leant back,
and gazed straight into Sakura's eyes. Sakura looked back curiously,
before her big blue eyes widened in astonishment as Hikari's lips met
her own. Hikari clenched her eyelids shut and hoped that this wouldn't
ruin everything that had happened tonight.
As she kissed her girlfriend, all of Hikari's emotions exploded.
For her, it was a catharsis, releasing all of the feelings she had
held inside for so long. All the times she had wanted to express
herself, but ended up repressing what she felt were now forgotten.
Hikari slowly broke off from the kiss, her lips lingering the
last precious moments before parting. As she eased her eyes open, she
saw Sakura's eyes were also closed.
'Yes! That means she liked it!'
Sakura mumured something as she opened her eyes, before
focussing on Hikari. "Kari... that was so nice..."
Hikari's heart almost jumped for joy as she took her friend in
the biggest, warmest hug imaginable.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Hikari set down her pen as she completed her story. Maybe it
wasn't exactly what had really happened between her and Sakura, but it
captured her emotions truthfully. Satisfied with her effort, she rose
from her seat and went to the window. A light snow was falling,
blanketing the neighbourhood with a bright white cover.
As Hikari's thoughts lingered on her story, she felt a familiar
presence behind her. She leaned back in anticipation just as a pair of
loving arms wrapped themselves around her slender waist.
"What were you doing before, Kari?" Sakura asked, as she nuzzled
her love's neck.
"Why don't you take a look for yourself..."
