Again and again until their last breath. It's all so tiring and repetitive but more especially, it was cosmically boring. "Oy miss, you gonna buy that fruit?" Sakura was snapped off her trance and focused again. She was standing in front of a fruit cart where its owner was about to close and tidy things up for the day before she decided to buy an apple. The owner was a grumpy-looking ram demi-human who seemed to be in his 50s though the demoness was impressive that he was still as strong as he was in his prime to be pulling that cart all by himself. [color=#DB9CB7]"Y-Yes. Sorry about that. How much-"[/color] "One." The ram said in a gruff voice, clearly annoyed that this transaction was taking longer than usual. Sakura reached to her small pouch and gave him three instead. [color=#DB9CB7]"For wasting your time."[/color] Sakura clarified while batting her eyelids at him. The ram just snuffed and accepted it, letting Sakura be with her apple as he hoised the handles of his cart. "Rabbits." He said under his breath in annoyance as he wheeled away with his produce. If she wasn't keeping a low profile, she would have killed that ram instantly. Indeed, Sakura had put on an illusion that she was a rabbit demi-human to blend in with the crowd. She didn't want to attract unwanted attention by walking out in the open as a demon so she ought to disguise herself instead. This way, no one would suspect anything of her and she could find her targe- her [i]friends[/i] without raising suspicion. Truth be told, Sakura arrived at the River Port just a few hours ago though she didn't know if she was the first, or one of the first, of the people from the ball to arrive here. She got herself in some minor trouble with some random goblins and other fierce wild animals on her way here but it's nothing her magic couldn't easily handle. Still, her energy was depleting due to the amount of spells she needed to keep active including her current illusion. She really needed to find a place to stay as soon as possible and rest so she could regain her energy. Not even the death of one of her shikigami was enough to make up for the cost of the active spells she had on. Such a waste of a minion but it was necessary. That sleazy lizard was about to spoil her secrets to the rebels and he managed to tell them of the presence of a spy within their ranks before he was silenced permanently. Sakura gritted her teeth in annoyance. After all the things she did for him, this was how he repaid her. She should really be careful of the people she chose to be her minions next time. Right now, she had some things she needed to do like find Ayita and Cade. She continued to walk along the town, eavesdropping on conversations while keeping an eye out for any outsider that looked suspicious. She was berating herself for losing her targe- her [i]friend[/i]. She should've just stayed with Ayita and kept an eye on her along with all the other humans but she had to send that good-for-nothing Ahzmorath away or else he'll kill every single one of them, including her. Just thinking about that wretched fool was making her blood boil so she ought to just forget about it and move on. Sakura felt something make contact with her foot and she looked down to see a white female creature laying down on the ground unconscious. She felt like she's seen this person before especially with the clothing on her body, eventually realizing that she remembered seeing this person fleeing with the rebels back from the ball. She could also tell this was a demon like her, making her all the more curious about what's a demon doing among the ranks of the rebels. A traitor to her own kind perhaps? [color=#DB9CB7]"Hey, you dead?"[/color] Sakura said, kneeling down and poking its sides to see if it'll wake up. Just then, a loud horn echoed throughout the port, making Sakura and most likely the other people jump in alarm because of it. What the heck was that? It sounded like it came from the town square too. Before she would investigate, she would need to wake up this unconscious demon first and get some answers. Sakura looked around for a bit before undoing the illusion off her face. She thought it would be best for the girl to see her kin the first time she wakes up. As soon as Myra would gain consciousness, she would see the face of Sakura looking down at her with utmost curiosity while holding an apple.
