Sakura awoke and found the food. She hungrily ate it. Tamao was off somewhere, Sakura didn't know. She wagged her tail and continued to eat. She then noticed a stone beside her. She was about to touch it when Tamao smacked her paw away.

"Don't touch it. You'll evolve, and it's too soon for that right now." He explained. Sakura nodded and retracted her paw.

Sakura started to hum, rather bored. "I'm gonna go and explore, okie?" Sakura asked. Tamao nodded. "Okay, just don't get hurt." He stated. Sakura nodded and ran off, her paws thudding against the ground. A droplet of rain started to fall. Then another.

It was a gentle pitter patter that managed to create a gray color in her mind. She stumbled upon a creek. She stared at it in awe, the rain pouring down harder. Sakura smiled, and sat down, listening to the creek bubble. It was peaceful, despite the rain dronwing out what would have been a gentle blue.

She sat there, listening as long as she could.
