[ Sakura was concerned. More so than usual. Normally if Aki disappeared for days on end, it would be because she chose to do so. But this was before they were living together and before they were going out. Times were now different.
Which is why when disappeared for one day, verging on two - Sakura decides to take things in her own hands. She tucks her phone in her pocket and runs out, dressed in a simple turtleneck and skirt for ease of movement. She nearly runs out of the house without her sword, but realises... this might be the time to bring it with her. She slings it behind her back and makes haste towards the edge of the city, where it borders with forest.
She steps on the stony path and the ground makes a hollow sound that echoes. She winces. Everyone could hear where she's stepping at this ratea. Treading carefully, she proceeds through the dark walkways, hopefully she won't have to yell to find Aki or else -- ]
Oh no!
[ She spots a monster attacking a small hunched over figure. It didn't matter who it was, she had to save them. ]
Hyaaaaaah!
[ Blade swift as light, Sakura submits to her instincts. One slash, two, three. She slices the monster into nonexistence and it disappears in a black haze. ]
[Strangely, when she tries to address her as Aki, no sound comes out of Sakura's mouth.
Aki simply ignores it, having watched her saviour cut down the monster chicken and rescue her. Neat.]
...I can't say I expected my life to turn into one of those shounen anime plots where I'm rescued by a mysterious sword wielding girl from a monster. I think I'm a little too old for protagonist material.
[She's caught her breath by this point, straightening up with a deep exhale.]

A-aki?
[ She stammers, as the danger passes. ]

Thanks for the save, though.
