Slave to a Samurai ((Silvermyst x Jugger82))

Atlin's ears picked up and heard her. Without thinking, he grabbed his bamboo sword and rushed to where she was. Seeing the group, he reacted immediately as he saw them beat her. "Let go of her you bastards!!" He rushed over and began to attack them one by one with the bamboo sword with skills that could be similar to his father's.
 
Sakura was thrown to the ground. She was unconscious. She was bleeding from a few places and bruises were already starting to form on her face. She just laid there as the men fought against Altin. The leader slowly walked towards Sakura as his men fought. He picked her up and started to walk off with her.
 
"Sakura! Sakuraaaa!" With one thrust, he threw the bamboo sword at the leader and hit him in the head. This left Atlin defenceless against those who were still conscious from him fighting. "Sakura run!"
 
Sakura was still unconscious. She was dropped and just laid there. There was a cut on the back of her head and she was bleeding heavily from it.
 
Atlin rushed over to her and picked her up as he made a dash. The guards came and began to deal with the enemy slave traders that had attacked Sakura. Atlin ran as fast as he could to his father's chamber.
 
Sakura's face was stained with tears, her right arm was bleeding, her left knee was badly bruised as well as he cheeks and her busted lip. The worst injury was on the back of her head.
 
Atlin soon brought her to his father's room. Nathan rushed over and asked what happened and Atlin told him the story. Nathan ripped off his sleeves and began to wrap up the wounds on her arm. He took his shirt off and wrapped it around her head to help stop the bleeding on the back of her head. "Lay her down, I'll get the nurses." Nathan ran off and Atlin did as he was told.
 
Sakura was laid on the bed. She groaned softly, but didn't wake up. She was getting pale from the lose of blood.
 
Nathan came back with the nurses whom went to attend to her wounds. "Atlin...I'm proud of you...you managed to save Sakura all by yourself...you really do deserve her."
 
Sakura's wounds were bandaged and the color started to return to her skin. The nurse told them she had a broken ankle and it would take a few weeks to heal. Also that Sakura suffered a concussion and would need bed rest for a few days. Sakura groaned and whimpered as she started to wake.
 
Sakura nodded slowly, "Yea I think so. My head and ankle hurt, but I think i am okay." she looked up at the two. "I am sorry i caused so much trouble."
 
"You weren't any trouble Sakura. Don't worry about it." Nathan said. He showed sorrow in his eyes as he turned around and left. He felt that Sakura was falling for Atlin, and he wouldn't get between them.
 
Sakura looked at Nathan and sat up wincing, "Wait please. This is hard enough for me.'please do not walk out. I love you both the same. It hurts me to hurt either one of you."
 
"I'm not angry...I'm not sad...I'm just bored. I missed out on the action and I'm annoyed about it..." He continued to walk until he left the room, leaving Atlin with her. "Sleep well Sakura...alright?"
 
Sakura bowed her head, she knew he was lying. She nodded at his words as she began to cry silently.
 
Sakura shook her head, "I love you, Altin, but I love your father too. I do not want to lose either of you. I don't know what to do and he is hurting."
 
"Maybe I should...make something more clear about how I...'love' you too...I love you as a mother Sakura......I'm sure my father loves you...like the way you think he loves you."
 
Sakura smiled at him, "That is how I feel about you. I want to protect you. I want you to be successful. You see you can fight. You protected me." She hugged him tightly.
 
Atlin smiled and returned the hug. "When you can walk...you have to go talk to father...he's never been this sad except for when mother died at my birth..."
 
Sakura pulled back, "I can't wait that long. Can you carry me to him? Please." She begged him softly as unshed tears shined in her eyes.
 
"I...I dunno if I can...but I'll try..." Forgetting his own wounds, he reached over and slipped his arms under her and picked her up. Carefully, he made his way down the corridors and began to head toward Nathan's room.
 
Sakura noticed his wounds, "Put me down and just help me walk. You are to injuried to carry me." She looked around and noticed some guards glaring at her, but keeping their distance.
 
"No...if I can't take this pain, then I really am not cut out for fighting on a regular basis..." He continued to carry her against her will until they came to Nathan's room. Atlin opened it and rushed in to lay Sakura down on Nathan's bed. He fell over panting and laid on the floor to rest. Nathan looked at the scene with confusion. "Uh......?"
