Sakura nodded solemnly. "The room's magic felt like the Church's. And I couldn't use my Cards while I was in there at all, or even access my magic."

She returned the brief hug, feeling greatly comforted by it. "It's okay," she told the other woman, trying to reassure her. "It doesn't hurt anymore!"

At Yuuko's suggestion of making the two boys cook for her them, she couldn't help giggling. She felt lighter and happier than she'd been in a long time. She didn't doubt for a moment that Yuuko and the others wouldn't be able to find her now. "Can Haku-san come eat with us, too? I miss him a lot," she confessed. "And can you tell him I'm okay, too? I don't want him to worry more."

Sakura didn't notice the change in subject, and instead grew thoughtful, trying to remember what Ken had said after he'd taken her away. She winced a little, rubbing at her arm absent mindedly, remembering the way he'd gripped her arm so hard it bruised. "He said something about people panicking," she answered. "He didn't really say much else before I was put in the room."

Yuuko made a half-growl of frustration when she heard that. "We're talking about some strong magic then, if it can block the Cards." she paused. "If there was one thing that confounded magician hated it was anti-mage spells, and I watched him soak that card paper in every single potion he could think of... Not that any of our magic seems to play by the rules anymore here." She didn't bring up the fact that situations were beginning to arise where she found herself not having to extract payment, namely her involvement with Kamui. She was worried that such situations would become more frequent, and she would find herself in a position where her magic would no longer be bound to keep others safe.

"I'm glad it doesn't hurt. And I'll be sure to tell everyone that I know cares about you that you are safe." She smiled at Sakura's suggestion. "Yes, Haku-san can come. And Zack, and that boyfriend he hasn't told me about...we can have a party for your homecoming!"

"People panicking?" she paused for a moment, then finally sighed. There was no point in keeping it from her.

"Sakura-chan..." she began. "Do you remember that reading you performed on the night of the Masquerade, about the threat to you and your brother, and the Mirror card?" The witch looked into the fire, fingers tightening in a fist around the corner of her pillow. "I think I've found him. Our Mirror card."

"The Church scares me." Sakura didn't feel like she had anything to lose in confessing that to the older woman. "Its magic... feels wrong somehow. I don't know if I can explain any better than that."

She managed a grateful smile at Yuuko, before blinking. "Zack-san has a boyfriend? Really?" It was like her onii-chan and Yukito-san, though she wouldn't say that out loud while her brother was around in this world. She didn't want to embarrass him.

Shaking her head to clear that thought away, she blinked again. "A... party? For me? Oh, no! It would be too much trouble!" she stammered, flushing darkly. "I'm not worth it, really! Just a dinner with our friends would do!"

Hearing Yuuko's next words made her freeze though, her hands, which she had been waving around frantically, stilling in mid-air. "The Mirror Card?" It had been so long since that had even crossed her mind, and she felt guilty all of a sudden for not thinking more about it, for not trying to figure out who was out to hurt her, and, more importantly, her big brother.

[[OOC: Actually, Fuuma's still supposed to "save" Sakura-chan and bring her back to the normal world. o.o So he can win her and Touya's trust and manipulate them. Er. So Yuuko can't really tell her about him, I don't think. ^^;;;

Maybe the dream can stop Yuuko from saying anything concrete about him? Like when Yuuko tries to speak his name or describe him, no words come out of her mouth? :x Just some suggestions. ^^;;;;; Feel free to do as you like. ♥]]
