...To The Past? [Open]

[saint-sami.livejournal.com]

"Why did I come in here?"

There were very few things Sasami regretted. One of those things? Walking into the art hall. She'd never thought it was needed to come visit here, but, after the whole thing with the Tapestry, curiosity came and bit her hard. The Tapestry wanted to show her things of the future. She'd just wanted to see things of the past. Out of curiosity, she looked at the first statue before her and gasped at what was being shown.

Herself at 3 years old, on a small platform, dead (at least in her mind). Over her was the form of Tsunami, ready to assimilate with her and revive her.

She stepped back, reeling in fear. Why did it show her that?! Of all the things she could have seen, it was that.

"Please, change it! I don't want to see this anymore!" Sasami pleaded, but it seemed like it was stuck at the moment.

"Really. I mean it with all of my heart. You're still my surrogate little sister and you're still Sasami Masaki Jurai to me, no matter what."

Hoshi lifted her head up to show her how much she was smiling.

"Hoshi..." Sasami uttered before wrapping her arms around the older girl tighter and just relishing the moment. As she did, she continued crying, but this time more out of happiness than anything.

All Hoshi could do was smile and let Sasami cry against her. Her fingers still worked through her hair, not letting her surrogate sister go for anything.

"I always will accept you, no matter what."

After awhile, Sasami calmed down from her crying and was busy resting on Hoshi. The statue had, thankfully, long since reverted, giving the girl a measure more of peace.

"Thank you, Hoshi-neesan... for everything." Sasami said. "It shouldn't of bothered me, but... with no one from my world here, it... well..."

Hoshi decided to sit down on the ground, letting Sasami rest on her. She placed her cheek on top of Sasami's head, a smile on her face.

"It's not a problem," she said as she let an easy smile cross her lips. "I can imagine something like that would terrify you. You don't see things like that every day."

"No... no you don't..." Sasami admitted, a slight chuckle leaving her lips.

After awhile, she looked up at Hoshi, a slightly weary look on her eyes. "...can we go?"

"Of course. Do you want a piggyback ride out of here?" Hoshi offered, still smiling to hopefully ease Sasami's weariness about what just happened.

"Would it be okay, Hoshi-neesan?" Sasami replied, knowing it would, but wanted to make sure.

"Of course," Hoshi said to Sasami, getting out of the hug and turning so that her back would be shown to her for her to get on.

With a brief nod, Sasami moved to climb onto Hoshi's back, resting her head on her sister's as she did.

Hoshi wrapped her arms around Sasami's legs, holding her securely against her back while she went to walk out of the art hall, humming a soft tune on the way out.

As Hoshi leads her own, she lets out a soft sigh, a small smile forming on her face as she does.
