A/N: I like crack pairings better. This is my first fanfiction so sorry if there are any errors or if the characters are OOC, plus I rushed through the end of this chapter. I don't really know how long this story will end up being but I'll try to finish it.

The hard wind tempted the pastel-colored flowers to sway back and forth. Panting, Sakura kept running through the meadow. Although she had absolutely no clue to where she was going, she knew what she wanted to accomplish. Sakura stopped and bent over to allow herself to take deep breaths. She jumped up when she heard a sudden rustle in the grass behind her.

Slowly, Sakura spun around to see the one she's been waiting for. Standing tall with brown hair and brown eyes, sure enough it was her Syaoran. For a moment, Sakura froze with happiness. Then she came sprinting to him with arms spread out.

"Syaoran!" Sakura shrieked, "I missed you so-"

But when she wrapped her arms around his figure, he just disintegrated with the wind. Sakura fell to her knees. For several months, she had waited for Syaoran, who was traveling along with Kurogane, Fay, and Mokona from world to world. Tears overflowed in her eyes as the scenery and herself faded into black.

Sakura opened her tired eyes to find herself lying in her own bed in her room. It was that dream again. Or maybe "nightmare" was more of an appropriate term. Either way, it wasn't going to help that this will continue to occur until Syaoran comes back. Sakura started having this dream a few weeks after him and the others left for yet another journey across dimensions.

Sighing, she sat up and stared down at the cream white sheets. Just like every day, her mornings were now slower. There was really no point to rush and get ready anymore. At first, Sakura didn't mind but now it's just excruciating with him gone. Not to mention there wasn't much to do. True, she had her brother, Touya, but being the king of Clow came some pretty important duties. All she would do was stand over the balcony in the palace and stare out at the ruins. Or if she thought the weather was nice, Sakura would carefully sneak out the palace and sit on one of the enormous rocks right outside. Whatever she did, they all lead to thinking about him. Syaoran to be specific. Sakura would spend countless seconds and even hours longing for his return or wondering what he could be doing. She would fantasize about the day when he would finally come home along with the others.

The problem was when would he come back? Day by day, Sakura grew ill of waiting. She hated the fact that he could arrive any moment now or in a year. Her eyes strained as the sunlight allowed itself into her room. It was supposed to be a warm, sunny day.

A sudden knock on the door destroyed Sakura's tired daze. "Come in," she quietly responded. The door opened to welcome Touya.

"Sorry, but I had to eat breakfast without you," Touya told her. "I have to attend a meeting all day today."

"Ok, thanks," Sakura said rubbing her eyes.

"What? Didn't get enough sleep?" Touya playfully smirked, "Well I have to go now. Don't do anything stupid for me." The door slammed shut leaving the rest of the room silent.

Lazily, Sakura climbed out of her bed and walked into her closet to change. She came out a few minutes later wearing her usual attire: white baggy clothes lined with a magenta pattern. Then she headed to the dining hall to eat the breakfast already prepared for her.

After breakfast, Sakura decided to visit her sitting spot on the rocks outside. Now that the sandstorm season was over, the weather was finally good enough to be outside. Before she could head out the entrance doors, Sakura quickly ran to her room to grab her cloak.

Sakura put the cloak over her head to shield her eyes from the bright sun. Since it was around noon, the sun's rays were starting to get stronger. It has been a brief two hours since Sakura came outside for the day. Like always, it was lonely without Syaoran. And the dream she had last night made her feel worse. It reminded her that he may never come back.

That thought alone made Sakura tear up a bit. Maybe he was on his way but something happened. Sakura wiped her tears off her cheek. No, she knew Syaoran was stronger than that. Plus, he had Kurogane and Fay with him, didn't he?

There was a small distortion in the sky that caused Sakura to stare up at it. It swirled around to form what looks like a small blob from the sky. This meant one thing. Someone was arriving from another dimension.

And it could mean another. Syaoran, Kurogane, Fay, and Mokona might be returning. Sakura took a few steps toward the "blob", but still held her distance, and eagerly waited to see if it was Syaoran and the others.

Finally, the blob popped to welcome Sakura the new visitors. Instead of the tall, brunette boy she was waiting to see, stood two pale figures adorned with dark cloaks and dark hair. One had friendly green eyes while the other had a moody violet.

"Subaru? Kamui?"
