Chapter 4: Chapter 4 - Lead
Sakura had decided to appear next time Alyssa called for her. She was really board that she initially just fired a few dozen rounds into zombies using a 50 cal. Sniper Rifle yet, there was little to no joy found.
Sitting above a rooftop in a suburban neighborhood, Sakura was not using her abilities as she had enough suffering that she needed to wait for a few days until her ability could recover.
The longer Sakura tried to use her abilities, the shorter amount of time she actually had before eher eyes completely gave out. At first, Sakura almost panicked until she remembered to cultivate and heal her wounds in the Pavilion. However, that took a long time and Sakura now had her sight back yet, was unable to stretch her ability to the max. She only now used it to keep an eye on Alyssa in the bunker.
However, suddenly a group of strangers caught her eye as they were going house to house.
'Interesting. ' Sakura dissapeared and reapeared somewhere nearby the group.
The group was small. Two men and a young woman. The young woman easily comandded the two men and was obviously the leader in the group. To their weapons, onenhad a hunting rifle, another a regular rifle, and the last one, the leader, a simple pistol.
Sakura smirked as she wondered what they were doing.
"Come on! Let's hurry! I don't want to stay out here any longer than I have to! "A large man called out as he rounded the corner and met the three young teens. He carried a large revolver that packed quite a kick. "What? "
"Nothing sir, we were just about to go into the house to look for food. "Turning to the only girl in the group, his eyes and lips told it all.
"Fine, fine. You two go, I'll stay out here and keep the lass safe. "The two boy obviously knew how scummy the man was yet, continued anyway as valiant attitudes could her them killed much like their friend who actually was killed by the old man not a day ago. "Say... Lass, you want to so some training? "
The girl shrugged his hand off her shoulder as she stepped away. The man's face blushed with twisted exitment as he then continued.
"Hey now, I've only been so kind to you as to not touch you these past few days. Had your friend not intervened, well, I could have mad eyou into a proper woman but sadly, I was forced to wait until your two hotblooded friends could cool down... Hmm? How about we taoena quicky-gah! "
Sakura abruptly appeared after seeing the mans hand stray to the suspicious rag in his left hand. Holding her bald to his throat, the mans eyes widened as he met a pair of balcony and white set of eyes. His face blew up bright red with excitement as she loathwd people like him.
"My, my... What's a pretty little thing like you doibg waving around such a dangerous thing? "The man tried to keep his tone calm when in the next second, the sound of a gun being fired off and the mans body hitting the floor passed in seconds.
"Heh... Scumbag. "The girl walked over and took his revolver. "That was for Travis, A-hole. "
'Are Canadians really restrained to cursing openly? Its the apocalypse?! 'Sakura shook the thoughts away and turned up as she put away her karana.
"Thank you, Miss. You saved me and my friends a lot of trouble. I'm Freja. "Extending her hand, Sakura bowed her head politely, sticking to the noble persona and spoke.
"I am Sakura Hajime. It is a pleasure to make your acquaintance, Lady Freja. "Taken aback by the sudden politeness, Freja's eyes glimnered and soon, Sakura found herself in her arms as she explained how she loved all things Japanese. "I see... Thank you for your recognition, Lady Freja. "
Freja was freaking out as she never would have thought she would meet someone from Japan as Sakura had the trademark balcony hair and deep black eyes and pale white skin. Though, hidden under her cloak, Freja could clearly see Sakura's unique set of purpleish-black set of armor and she screamed internally.
"A-Are you a Samurai? "Sakura witheld her smile and lowered her gaze as she gave a slight bow to confirm her response. "H-H... HAAAAH! "
Freja's scream was so loud, that the other two left the house and what they thought was Freja firing at zombies, was actually seeing the dead older man in the foor and a new pretty face that shocked them back to reality.
"Freja! What happened? "/ "Are you okay? "
Freja's eyes didn't leave Sakura for a second. Sakura, continuing her persona, raised her hands and gave a slight bow as she greeted Rhea etwonand something unaudible Sasha heard before Freja suddenly collapsed.
"Freja!? "
~
After walking the trio back to their base, Sakura was greeted with a large metallic bard door as the door slid open and two new faces were seen. One belonged to an older woman while the other, a young little girl barely ten years old.
"Oh! Freja?! What happened, where's Bobby?! "The two rmeained silent as a breathe of relief left Rhea older woman's lips. "Finally, that old A-hole is dead. Good ridence. "
Entering the barn, the two boys looked bacon but found no trace of Sakura anywhere. They were in am open plain and it was as if she never existed. Shivering at the thought, the two rushed inside and closed the barn door.
~
"WHAT?!!? "Freja had woken up and could not believe her ears when the two bits told hee that the girl was gone. That she had simply vanished as if she was never there. "You mean to tell me that my one and only beautiful Samurai girl has gone and left?! "
Nodding hesitantly, Freja threw a slight tantrum until ultimately collapsing to her knees and shouting at the top of her lungs, "SAKURAAA! "
Holding a soft smile, Sakura appeared outside the large barn door and lightly knocked. Holding bags of seed, canned food, and clean waterbottles as well as a water filtration system, the door swing open and the first boy was immediately pushed as Freja swung onto Sakura.
More shocked were the others as they saw a breathtakingly beautiful young woman standing firm while holding large bags. After confirming they were for the group, the moment they turned their gazes, Sakura had already dissapeared.
"... Go... Goddess! She must be a divine being! "One of the boys shouted before the older woman smacked his head with her hand.
"Huh?! No, My Samurai Wifey!!? "Freja was deviststed yet, she quickly got over it as she at least knew that Sakura would be helping more people out in the world. "I suppose my Samurai is busy saving the world... Hmm. "
Freja then became delusional afterwards and trianed in the path of the samurai.
Sakura would also begin to keep an eye on Freja from then on as she found her cutely entertaining.

Shifting her gaze, Sakura had few who met her strength. Yet...
"Ba-ckyaaa! "Sakura was in a life and death match with... A chicken?
[Rewind to ten minutes.]
Sakura was idleing along when she suddenly spotted a chicken crossing the road. Feeling whimsical, Sakura drew her blade and teased the little chicken. Laughing heartedly, Sakura withdrew her blade and continued walking when suddenly, a sharp pain pierced her back.
"Agh! "Turning, she met the shifting gaze of the small chicken before her. "You that eager to court death?! Fine! "
Throwing a fast punch to freighten the chicken, to her surprise, the chuck did a stupidly fast spin and used its small legs to knock her several feet back into the pavement.
"Gah-"Suddenly appeared over her chest, Sakura felt as if an entire building had come crashing down over her stomach. "... Argh-you little!
Swiping her open hand, the chicken dodged yet, was then kicked while in mid air as it dodged again yet, failed to see Sakura's presence as she headbutt the chicken several feet away.
Standing back up, the two looked at one another as the situation is now caught up to the present.
"You... Chicken! Whatever you are... Join me! "
"Be-ckyaa! "Sakura scrunched her brows as if understanding what it said.
"Very well, I'll make this a quick death! "Reaping forward, the two exchanged powerful blows for hours.
~
Finally collapsing onto the ruined ground, Sakura and the chicken were both wiped out as neither could continued.
After recovering hee strength a little, Sakura went into her bracelet space and brought out two waters and some seed for the chicken. The chicken turned to her and stood firm with a breath of mobility.
{"Thank you human. You are most generous. "}
Sakura raised a brow and thought to her self. 'I'm really losing my mind, huh? '
{"Tell me, warrior. What is your name? "}
"Sakura Hajime. "Sakura comolied as she didn't see why she shouldn't.
{"I see... Well, Lady Sakura. You are the first being I have encountered since arriving on this planet. Unfortunately, my form took the orecense of the nearest living organism I came into contact with and that being this majestic creature. "}
"Hmm... I see. Do you have any way to change into a human? "
{"Alas, I do but, it will take some time. I would also need information via blood sample. "}
"Hm. What my blood? "Casually throwing out the question.
{"Y-You sure? I would look similar to you. "}
"If it's only similar, the sure, go right ahead. "
Extending her hand, Sakura let the light shine chicken bite her and blood soon poured out. Eating it, the Dating cken glowed for a while and then stopped.
{"It will take me 24 human hours to complete the process. Thank you, Lady Sakura. I am forever in your debt. "}
"Sure, no problem. "Standing up, Sakura left and didnt turn back the entire time and pushed the entire encounter to the back of her mind. "... Weird. But pretty cool. "
