Agent08 Reporting for Duty!

Disclaimer: I claim that I do not own anything except for the plot. However, some lines I use have also been used in CCS the TV show/movie. Still, I claim I don't own a thing. Thank you! :)

Full Summary: "That girl, that Kinomoto girl. She says she's in love with me, but I don't know who she is, or why she even loves me." Is it truly possible for someone to forget the person they love most? (SyaoranxSakura)

Now… on with the story!

I Forgot to Remember

Forgetting

Sakura, full of determination and sadness, walked slowly towards the form of the Void Card. A little girl with long, flowing silver hair and the saddest, most empty eyes she'd ever seen. The little girl sobbed.

"Don't worry," Sakura said quietly. "Come join us."

The Void Card lifted her head to stare at her. "You won't leave me alone?"

"Everyone is waiting for you," Sakura said, as cheerfully as she could.

The Void considered her offer for a moment. And then, with a smile, she stood in her tiny bubble of air and bowed her head, offering herself up to her new mistress. Sakura grinned back, lifting her staff to first capture the card, and then seal it as her own.

"You know what you are giving up," the Void said suddenly, before Sakura could begin muttering the incantation. "Don't you?"

She swallowed with great difficulty and tried to see through the forming tears in her eyes. She tried her very best to smile. "Of course."

And then she began. "Return to your original form, Clow Card!" A magical mist burst through the card that suddenly formed beneath her staff, and she continued the rest of the incantation. "Clow Card, abandon your old form and re-incarnate. I order you, as your new master… under the name of Sakura!"

I guess I wasn't able to tell him how I feel after all...

The newly formed card floated directly towards her and she took it with shaking hands. It glowed gold for a moment, and when it faded, she saw that the Void was joined by the Nameless Card that she'd created last year. 'The Hope' it read.

She squeezed her eyes tight, prepared to have her most important feeling taken away from her. It was the price she had to pay after all, in order to seal the card. It was a sacrifice she was willing to make, if it meant returning all her loved ones, safe and sound. She just wished she could've told Syaoran how she felt about him, before she forgot that feeling completely.

She heard a whooshing noise and a strangled voice. Her eyes fluttered open and saw to her agony, a dark bubble enclose the very last person she wanted to see in her position.

"Syaoran-kun!" she cried, racing up the tower steps, getting as close to him as she could. The tower was badly damaged with holes all over it, so she couldn't get as near to him as she wanted to be.

"I'm glad I could make it," he said in a voice so tired and strangled it broke her heart to hear it.

She whimpered.

"I knew the Void would take my most important feeling instead of yours, as you've been summoning so many cards. Of course I would have the most magical powers out of the two of us at the end of the day,"

Sakura didn't even realize it until he said it. Eriol had warned her that the Void would take the feeling of the most magically powerful person. Not her alone. She'd just assumed it would be her, because she was the Card Mistress, after all.

Syaoran tried his best to stand with the help of his sword. How ironic, that he was more physically weak, but his magical power was still stronger than her own. If only it wasn't this way. If only it had gone the way she'd expected it too.

He smiled weakly at her and stared through his chocolate brown bangs. His eyes were wet. "Even if I lose this feeling… I'm sure I will still –"

The black hole that covered him closed completely, abruptly, and Sakura could see no more of him as the Void card did its job, and took away his most important feeling. The love he had for her.

"Syaoran-kun!"

When she next saw him, it was through blurry vision. Sakura's eyes were filled to the brim with tears as she stared at him, knowing he felt nothing for her anymore. But still, it was worth a shot.

She smiled a shaky smile at him and tried not to lose it. "Syaoran-kun," she said quietly, "I don't care what you think. I love you. You're the most important person to me… you're my number one."

Syaoran stared at her from across the distance, really just a couple of feet away. And yet, in that moment, she'd never felt so distant from him in her life.

He tilted his head to one side and stared at her with blank, empty eyes. "Who are you?"

Sakura's mouth fell open in despair and fell to her knees. Her head dropped into her hands as she continued to sob, not caring anymore what happened to her, or anything else.

She knew, from that moment on, that things would never be the same for her or for anyone else, ever again.

Hey lovelies. So yeah, I guess I'm back?

I know it's been a while since I've published something on here. It's been ages, actually. I hope you guys haven't forgotten me!

Just some things I think you should know:

a) When I wrote this fic, it was actually originally a one-shot, but it turned out to be something more. Lucky for you guys, eh?

b) I won't be cruel and take months at a time to update. I promise I'll update on a regular basis, maybe after every one or two weeks. THREE at the very max. I want you guys to trust me on that.

c) I don't plan on making this a very long story. It's actually a short little thing with really lengthy chapters.

That's all, really. I'm still at school, nearing the end of my first semester. Bear with me, you guys. But I promise you won't have to bear much. I'll be a good little authoress with this fic, I swear it! Tehehe.

I hope you enjoyed the first chapter and come back for seconds! Please read and review, it means the world to me!

Also, I wish each and every person reading this a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Be safe, you guys!
