Destruction of Time-- Chapter 3
Sakura went home, still very confused about her 'vision.' So many thoughts were in her mind, like WHY Syaoran was back, vision at lunch, first day of high school, all things were being thought of.
But her thoughts were interrupted by a loud snore from inside her bag. Sakura peeked inside to find Kero sleeping with a peaceful smile on his face. She laughed at Kero's kawaiiness with thoughts of when she first met Kero. She remembered being terrified that perhaps a burglar was in the house, then seeing a Kero appear out of the book looking for the Clow Cards that had flown away inside the basement as she looked around.
Sakura sighed. The memories of 4th grade were the best she ever had. After Syaoran left for Hong Kong life resumed as it would have if Syaoran never came.... except Kero stayed the same.
When Sakura arrived at her house she was greeted by Touya and Yuki who were walking out the door.
Touya teased her saying, "Hi, monster. I could hear your skates from blocks away!"
Sakura glared at her brother but stopped when Yuki said, "We're going to go eat!"
Sakura smiled politely looking into Yuki's eyes and again realized that she never loved him.... and that ishe only had a hopeless crush.
"Goodbye then," Sakura said with a bright smile.
They left walking slowly and Sakura faintly hear a conversation.
"Sister complex..." Yuki teased.
"Shut up!" Touya replied. Yuki laughed.
Sakura shrugged and walked through the door. Walking up to her room tiredly she heard Kero wake up.
"Ahh! *yawn* How refreshing," a muffled voice said from within the bag.
Sakura was now in her room, door shut, and she dumped out all the contents of her bag. Kero came out witha a thud.
"Sakura!" Kero complained.
"Gomen," Sakura said.
"Oh, ok. Sooo..... what happened at lunch today. I was worried...." Kero said getting right to the point.
"Ho-ee," Sakura said sweatdropping not knowing exactly what to say, "I had this... vision. And I saw Clow Reed. He was a preschooler and it was his first day of preschool. Peers were being very rude to him.... he felt pain and I felt his sorrow. But then I woke up."
"Are you sure it was Clow Reed?" Kero said with doubt.
Sakura glared and said, "I'm sure, Kero- chan."
"Ok... Gomen Ne, Sakura. Anyways, I don't know if that really happened. Tell me if you have anothor vision and maybe I can tell you more about it," Kero said softly.
Sakura smiled sadly saying, "It's ok, Kero-chan. I bet it was nothing. What's the worst that could happen?"
Kero was about to reply but was interrupted by Sakura running out of her room.
"I'll make you some cake, Kero-chan! That will make things all better!" Sakura yelled happily.
Kero laughed and yelled back, " Yay!" More quietly, talking to himself, he said, "Sakura, be careful. Something bad COULD happen."
~*~*~*~*~*~
Syaoran sat at his tea table glaring for no particular reason. He sighed deeply and said, "What a big day."
After gazing at the phone for four minutes that sat on the table in front of him Syaoran decided to call Sakura. Picking up the phone he slowly dialed Sakura's number.
"Moshi Moshi!" said Sakura's voice from the other end of the line.
"Hello, Sakura," Syaoran said.
"Syaoran-kun? Hello!" Sakura said sounding startled.
"Ummm... I was wondering if I could talk to you. Meet me a the park?" Syaoran said blushing.
"H- Hai! I'll be there in a minute!" Sakura said happily.
Both hung up the phone.
Syaoran smiled. He'd been doing that a lot lately, mostly because he was thinking of Sakura. Syaoran stood up and walked out of the house and towards the park.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Sakura was estatic. She went upstairs to say she was going to the park to Kero.
Once in the room Sakura grabbed Kero and hugged him tightly.
"Ca-an-'t BREATHE!" Kero squeaked.
"Sooooo happy!" Sakura yelled.
Kero managed to get out of Sakura's grip and gasped.
"Wahh Skaura! That hurts!" Kero said hugging his plushy neck.
"Sorry, Kero-chan. I have to go to the park to see Syaoran- kun. I'll make your cake tomorrow," Sakura yelled to Kero disappearing out the door and running to the park.
"What?! You'd rather talk to the Chinese brat than make me cake?!" Kero yelled after Sakura but it was too late..... she was already gone.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Sakura ran to the park full of speed wanting to get there as fast as she could to see Syaoran. As soon as she was 3/4 there, she began to slow down and walk. Sakura laughed at herself because of her eagerness to see Syaoran.
A dull ache was in her head. 'Probably just a headache from all the exciting events of today,' Sakura thought. But as she walked the pain didn't lessen. Sakura stopped walking to try to clear her head and closed her eyes for a second.
Suddenly, Sakura was in Clow Reed's mind again. This time Clow was eating lunch. He was still in preschool and he felt very depressed. Nobody would sit with him to eat and whenever he tried to sit next to someone they would run away and sit somewhere else. So Clow sat at a table all alone. His appetite was low and he felt home sick.
All of a sudden a girl with two dark red pigtails walked up to him. She grinned widely at Clow.
"Hi! What's your name?" she asked. "I'm Sayi!"
Sayi's sweetness made Clow surprised and crazy with happiness. He replied, "I'm Clow Reed! Arigato for talking to me!" Clow said brightly.
Sayi looked at him in confusion and said, "Your from the Clow family?"
"Yes. Why?" Clow asked her, "So?"
"Your family studies dark magic and curses people!" Sayi yelled. She turned and ran as if Clow was going to put a curse on her any second from then.
After her quick departure Clow felt very confused. 'Why does people say that my family study dark magic? What's going on? Why does everyone think something so dumb?'
~*~*~*~*~*~
Sakura slowly woke up. She was lying on a sidewalk. The headache was gone but now Sakura felt very uneasy. She felt sorry for Clow and decided to tell Kero as soon as she got home later about the newest vision. Sakura was as confused as Clow though for a second and thought, 'I don't get the vision. Clow doesn't know that he has magic in him?' Very curious, Sakura stood up and continued her walk to the park. Fortunetly, very little time had passed.
When Sakura reached the park Syaoran was already there. He was sitting elegantly on a bench, staring into space. Quickly all worries slipped Sakura's mind to be replaced with bliss. She ran to the bench Syaoran was at and sat down next to him.
Syaoran looked at Sakura with kindness and said,
"Konnichiwa, Sakura!"
Sakura smiled and replied,
"Konnichiwa Syaoran- kun! I didn't keep you waiting did I?"
Syaroan seemed to be uplifted with Sakura's high spirits and smiled back saying, "No. I just got here."
"What did you want to talk to me about?" Sakura asked sweetly.
Syaoran frowned briefly and said, "Sakura, I was wondering about lunch time today..."
Syaoran was cut off by Sakura's comment, "Hooo--eee!"
He continued softly, "What happened exactly?"
Sakura again cried, "Hoe! I... ummm... had a vision. I saw Clow Reed when he was a happy little pre- schooler...." She stopped abruptly because Syaoran had an astonished look, "Nani?"
Syaoran whispered, "I saw one vision today of Clow today...."
"NANI?!" Sakura said again, "I had a second one on my way here. Clow Reed found out that people didn't like him because they thought he used magic to curse people. But he had no clue about the rumors.... also, I don't think he knew that he HAD magic. I asked Kero-chan about the one at lunch, and he doesn't know what is happening."
Syaoran frowned, "I never had a second vision.... I'll research it later..."
Sakura said, "And I'll check with Kero-chan again. Anyways, I keep meaning to ask you. Why are you back? And is Meilin-chan coming, too?"
Syaoran blushed and spoke bashfully, "I came back because I wanted to see you. Also, the clan didn't have anything important for me to do and didn't mind my leaving. As for Meilin..."
**flashback in Hong Kong**
" I'm going with you Syaoran- kun!" Meilin cried in Syaoran's room.
"No, Meilin! You're not going to Japan!" Syaoran spoke harshfully while packing bags to go to the airport, "Why do you want to go anyway?"
"Cause... cause, hmph!" Meilin said stamping her feat and walking out of Syaoran's room.
**end flashback**
"She decided to stay in Hong Kong," Syaoran said sweatdropping.
Sakura said, "That's too bad. Soo..." Sakura stopped talking becuase Syaoran looked pained.
Syaoran's eyes were closed tightly and his arm now gripped Sakura's shoulder for support.
Sakura yelled with concern, "Syaoran- kun!!!"
A second later Syaoran opened his eyes with a relieved look and blushed when he took his arm off Sakura's shoulder.
"I got the second vision..." Syaoran said to himself, "What's going on?"
