Choices, Decisions, and Fate (Part One)

Sakura

"Took you long enough," Sakura muttered to herself. She glanced over her shoulder to see Tarik and the Demon Lord staring each other down, still not making a move on each other yet.

The past twenty minutes or so had not been easy for Sakura. Calling it stressful would have been the understatement of the century.

First, there was the entire performance at the Entrance to Knowledge. She knew that her acting wasn't as good as Gadiel or Irade, so she had simply started the act without telling Irade. However, the more Irade looked at her like that, Sakura felt her resolve crumble a little, feeling bad about deceiving Irade.

So she let her in on her plan.
