(Dream sequence)
She was flying again. She could see her old home and the shrine. She could see a mysterious figure in front of her and their eyes were an eerie yellow. He was standing in a temple of some sort. In front of him was a platform with someone laying on it. She couldn't quite tell who it was but when she turned around she saw Yue, Kerberos, Eli, and Tori. In Tori's hand was a staff similar to hers but instead of a star in the middle there were four different color gems. The staff it self was black with gold on the edges.

19 year old Sakura Avalon sat upright in bed fast. She breathed a sigh in relief when she noticed Kero was still asleep. She felt she was holding something in her hand and removed it from under the blanket.
"The DREAM Card?" she asked. She looked at the clock and saw it was still early and got out of bed. 'I'vehad that dream for weeks now. What could it mean?' she thought to herself as she placed the DREAM card back in the book. She got out some clean clothes and went to take a shower. When she got out she was dressed in a lavender halter top and a white skirt that stopped above her knees. Around her neck she tied lavender around her neck to hide the scar she got from the final judgment. It would do her no good for Yue or Kero to see it. Yue would blame himself and Kero would get on to him about hurting her. She brushed her waist length hair and tied pale pink ribbon in her hair for her low ponytail. Two years ago Sakura was strong enough to separate Yue and Julian. After a few days of being separated Sakura, Kero, Yue and Madison all moved to England to finish school with Eli. It was also good for Sakura to move away since Lee broke his promise he made after capturing the VOID Card. Sakura made her way into the kitchen and started making her lunch. Today she and Madison were going shopping for their trip back to Reedington for Christmas. She heard knocking on the front door and went to answer.
"Hey Madison you're here early." Sakura said when she answered the door. She stepped aside to allow her in. Madison was dressed in a black sweater and black jeans. Sakura looked at her attire.
"You might want to change Sakura it's really cold outside." Madison said. Sakura then felt the wind as it blew inside. Sakura closed the door and nodded.
"I'll be right back then. I guess England is colder then Reedington at Christmas."Sakura said and she ran back into her room. She took out cashmere turtle neck sweater in an emerald green and white jeans. She replaced the ribbon in her hair for a white ribbon and then joined Madison in the kitchen. Madison looked up and smiled "Ready?" she asked. Sakura nodded and grabbed her leather coat and off they went.
(Later the Night)
Sakura was packing her clothes in her suitcase while Yue and Kero watched.
"Yue… do you still have those clothes you wore when you went on the plane the first time?" She asked as she folded more pants in her suitcase.
"Yes, I believe I still have them Mi- Sakura." He said. Sakura nodded and looked up when Madison knocked on her bedroom door.
"I'm all packed and ready to go tomorrow…oh before I forget Eli said he was coming with us." She said.
"Really? What about Ruby and Spinner?" Sakura asked. She saw Yue and Kero stiffen a little at those names.
"He said they wanted to stay here instead of going with us." Madison said.
"Good I don't think Tori would want to be jumped all the time." Sakura said giggling. She closed her suitcase and set it on the floor by her bed then rolled out the spare futon for Madison. A few minutes later when Sakura was sure Yue and Kero were asleep she whispered to Madison about the dream she had been having for the past week.
"Maybe Kero or Yue can tell you if you told them Sakura." Madison said after listening.
"That's just it Madison…if I told them all they would do is worry about me instead of enjoying themselves …I just can't." Sakura said.
"Just like you can't tell them about the scar on your neck?" Madison asked. Sakura looked wide eyed at Madison.
"How did you know about that I haven't told anyone?" Sakura said.
"Sakura I've known you since you were little and never have I seen you wear ribbon around your neck or tried to hide your throat. Yue and Kero may not say anything because all those costumes I made for you had high collars. You're keeping them in the dark like they did you when Yue was losing his powers." Madison said.
"I just don't want Yue to think it was his fault I got this. I got some scars on my wrists too but their not as bad as the one on my neck. The WOOD Card was wrapped around me pretty tight." Sakura said looking at her wrists where she could see faint lines where WOOD cut into her.
"You love Yue don't you more than Lee." Madison stated.
Sakura looked at her and nodded.
"That's why I won't tell him anything about the dream or these scars. Plus he only sees me as his mistress not a friend. I just got him used to calling me Sakura instead of Mistress. I guess he still loves Clow Reed." Sakura said sadly.
"Don't worry he'll fall into your charm soon enough…I mean everyone does." Madison said with a smile on her face. Sakura smiled back and nodded. "Well I guess we should get some sleep. Good night Sakura." She added as she laid her head down on the pillow.
"Night Madison."
Chapter 2
(Dream sequence)
She was flying again. She could see her old home and the shrine. She could see a mysterious figure in front of her and their eyes were an eerie yellow. He was standing in a temple of some sort. In front of him was a platform with someone laying on it. She couldn't quite tell who it was but she could see they were in a deep sleep or in a comatose state, when she turned around she saw Yue, Kerberos, Eli, and Tori. In Tori's hand was a staff similar to hers but instead of a star in the middle there were four different color gems. The staff it self was black with gold on the edges and it was glowing midnight blue as was Tori. " The Elemental Stones have chosen him Help him."
(End Dream sequence)
Sakura again awoke in a panic. 'Tori...That can't be.' she thought. She looked and saw Madison, Kero and Yue still asleep. She turned and saw her alarm had yet to ring. She silently got out of bed and changed into a red turtle neck shirt and a heavy red velvet skirt that reached her ankles. She grabbed her long black coat and went into the kitchen. A soft knocking on her door made her stop from turning on the stove and went to answer. 20 year old Eli Moon stood in front of her. "Well good morning Sakura. I hope I didn't wake you?" He said.
"No come on in Eli...The others are still asleep. I was just about to make breakfast would you like some?" Sakura asked as she stepped aside to let him in.
"No thanks but I would like a cup of hot cocoa if you have any it's really cold out there." Eli said.
"Sure I was going to make some for everyone. Come sit in the kitchen with me while I fix something for me and Madison." Sakura said as she walked back into the kitchen. She made some pancakes for herself and Madison and with the leftover she made some for Kero. Madison came in dressed in a blue sweater and blue jeans.
"Wow those smell fantastic Sakura." she said. Sakura placed the pancakes on the table along with five cups of hot Cocoa, strawberry syrup, butter and maple syrup. " Um...Sakura why did you make five cups of hot Cocoa. Yue doesn't eat or drink." Madison asked.
"He drinks tea every once in awhile. I think he will appreciate something hot for a cold morning." Sakura said as she buttered her pancakes and put some maple syrup on them. She was right. Yue and Kero came in with Yue dressed in regular clothes and his wings gone. He took the hot cocoa cup and drank while the others ate. After cleaning up, Sakura grabbed her suitcase and placed it by the door by Madison's. Eli helped Madison and her into their coats and they were off to the airport.
(On the plane)
Sakura was seated next to Yue while Kero was in her purse hiding. She had opened it a little so he would get some fresh air. She was listening to her I-pod when she felt Yue looking at her. She pulled one headphone out and gave him a questioning glance.
"Sorry Sakura...it's just what is that exactly?" Yue asked. Sakura just held out the head phone she took out and placed it in his ear. Yue could hear music coming out.
In you and I there's a new land
Angel's in flight
My sanctuary my sanctuary yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music will tie
What's left of me what's left of me now
I watch you fast asleep
All I fear means nothing
In you and I there's a new land
Angels in flight
My sanctuary my sanctuary yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music will tie
What's left of me what's left of me
My heart's a battleground
You show me how to see
That nothing is whole and nothing is broken
In you and I there's a new land
Angel's in flight
My sanctuary my sanctuary yeah
Where fears and lies melt away
Music will tie
What's left of me what's left of me now
My fears and lies
Melt away
Yue took the headphone out and smiled at Sakura before placing it back in her ear. he mouthed 'Thank you' then looked ahead. Sakura fell asleep listening to her music and was back in the dream.
(Dream)
Sakura was getting closer to the person on the platform. They were in a comatose state and she could tell that the person was a girl. Suddenly she was in front of the boys and could see anger and sadness in their eyes. Dry tear marks were down Tori's cheeks and Yue looked like he was holding in some while Eli had nothing but anger in his eyes.
(End Dream)
Sakura jerked awake but made no move to alert Yue what had happened. She took deep calming breaths and started to move as if she were waking. She then noticed her headphones where off.
"Forgive me Sakura, but I thought you would like it better if you didn't have those things in your ears as you slept. Madison has it." Yue said.
"It's alright Yue...It's a good thing you took it from me or else the battery would have died." She said.
"Sakura we're almost there and here is your I-pod back. I turned it off as soon as Yue handed it to me." Madison said handing over Skaura's blue and yellow I-pod.
"Thanks Madison." Sakura said before yawning. They felt the plane jerk and knew it was time to put their seatbelts on. After landing they waited for everyone to get off before getting their stuff and getting off the plane. When they cleared the door Sakura saw Tori and her father waiting for them. She put her bag down and ran for her father and brother. After giving them a hug Sakura picked up her bag and they made their way to the car. When they arrived at her old home Sakura, Madison and Kero would sleep in her old room while Eli and Yue would sleep in Tori's old room. Tori would be with Julian in the apartment they shared from the university. Sakura took a deep breath and smelled her father's cooking. She was Home.
