A/N: ok, I'm staring at the screen. I don't know what to do. But wait, suddenly I have the urge to write what I'm thinking. So here goes. Wish me luck! I hope you like whatever my fingers or rather hands will produce. Enjoy. Thanks for taking time to read.

Disclaimer: (this disclaimer has been put on after I wrote the first chapter) I don't own CCS. Though if I did, I would've paired Eriol and Tomoyo in the actual series. And I have used the world of Harry Potter, meaning I didn't make the world where my characters live in too.

Tap. Tap. Tap.

The bed covers stirred.

. . .

Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap.

The thing under the covers moved again. Then it stopped.

. . .

Tap. Tap tap tap TAP!

"ALRIGHT! ALRIGHT! COMING ALREADY!" the covers were thrown towards the floor by a furious looking lady who obviously wasn't too happy with the disruption of her sleep.

Rubbing her eyes, she went towards the window where an owl was perched carrying a letter. She grumbled and opened the window to let the owl in. Once the owl was inside, it landed on her table where it stuck its leg out letting her take a green letter tied to it.

"Hmpf! Who would be sending me a letter at this time of the night??" she grumbled. "Don't they know that normal people actually sleep?"

She was up all night making a research on her paper work and then this owl came here and disturbed her longed-for sleep!

She put the letter on her table; she would read it later when she wakes up. Then she noticed that the owl hadn't left yet. The owl looked at her expectantly as if waiting for something. It hit her that maybe it's waiting for a reply. So she looked at the letter again and this time she read what was written on the back, frowned, (the writing was in pink) and then turned the letter over. Her brows shot up in surprise and she ripped the envelope open, eager to know what was written inside.

As soon as she finished reading, she let out an excited squeal and grinned. Immediately, she dropped the letter on the table and went to the bathroom. She quickly took a bath then put on her clothes. She got her traveling bag out and hurriedly put several clothes in it. She threw in other things she might need for the trip and when she thought she was ready, she picked the letter up and read the last part. She then picked up the phone and dialed the number written on the letter.

As the phone on the other end rang she was pacing back and forth in her room, anxious to hear from the other end.

As soon as it was answered, she stopped in her tracks and plopped down her bed wishing she could stop overreacting and just be calm.

"Hello?" the other line answered.

"Hello? I'm sorry for disturbing you this late, but is Sakura Kinomoto there?"

"It's ok, and yes, this is her. May I help you?"

"I – Sakura!! Is this really you? It's me, Tomoyo!" she heard a gasp on the other end of the line followed by a squeal.

"Tomoyo! It's so good to hear from you! So you received my owl? Hahaha! Of course you did, you wouldn't be calling me if you didn't! So how are you? It's been what, seven years since we've seen and talked to each other! I know we promised to owl each other but-but then something happened here with my family a-and I was told not to use owls. It's a long story and I-"

"Whoa, whoa, whoa! Slow down Sakura! Catch your breath! I know you're excited, I am too, but if you keep on like that you may die from forgetting to breathe!"

The girl on the other line took a deep breath and giggled.

"You're right Tomoyo, it's just that, I've missed you so much, and I have lots and lots of things to tell you that I don't know where to start!" then she sniffed. "See? Now I'm starting to cry! I wish I could see you already Tomoyo… but I guess I've got to wait 'till tomorrow…"

"No! See, Sakura, that's why I called. I called to ask if I could come over right now. I know where your hotel is and I could rent a room there too if you want." said Tomoyo, not wanting to hear her best friend cry.

"Really?? You could go now? Here? As in NOW?" said an unbelieving Sakura.

"Well, yes if you want me to… I mean, I might be disturbing you or something…" Tomoyo said uncertainly.

"NO! I think that would be great! My room number's 1548.  You could apparate here can't you?" Her best friend asked, obviously wanting her to be there right away.

"I'm sorry Sakura, but that would be too risky. I'm not really sure of what wing you're in anyway. Don't worry I would be there in about half an hour. Ok?" Tomoyo reassured Sakura.

"Oh. Ok. If you say so.  Just be careful ok? It's not exactly safe traveling out at this time of the night, uh, I mean morning." Sakura replied.

"Yeah, I will, don't worry! So I'll be going now ok?" Tomoyo then hung up the phone.

She looked around her room, satisfied that she had all that she needs; she went out carrying her bags with her and went down the stairs. She made sure everything was in place before she unhooked her car keys together with her house keys and locked the door.

She threw her bags in the back seat, sat in the front and was about to start her car when she felt the hair on the back of her neck stand up. She felt like someone, or something was watching her. She looked down the street and the windows of her neighbors, all of which were closed and the street was deserted.

Everything was still in the night and Tomoyo felt even her slightest movement could wake up the entire neighborhood.  But quite suddenly she felt a swish of wind, as if something passed by so fast that she didn't even see it. Tomoyo looked swiftly around afraid that whatever that thing was might come attack her.

'Nah, just my imagination. There couldn't possibly be anyone o-or anything out here right now could there?' she shuddered.

Tomoyo was beginning to feel frightened by the thoughts of what could be out there waiting for her. She shook her head and told herself that she HAS to be brave or else she would have to wait until tomorrow to see her best friend.

Tomoyo quickly started up her car, backed up her garage, and was on the street when suddenly, on her rear view mirror, she saw a shadow moving swiftly towards her car. Her heart raced, she was telling her feet to press the gas but for some unknown reason they won't listen to her orders. She felt goose bumps on her skin and she could feel her heart pounding frantically in her chest.

She didn't dare look out her window afraid of what she might see. Instead her eyes stayed on her rear view mirror. It was then she noticed that whatever it was, she can't see it right now. Something was wrong with her mirror. It was, well, black. She took a closer look when suddenly the mirror opened its eyes! Wait a minute, mirrors don't have eyes! Then wha-

Tomoyo's eyes went wide and her hand flew to her mouth to keep herself from screaming. She was staring into big midnight blue eyes. Tomoyo slowly turned around, though she was afraid, her curiosity got the better of her, and searched for whatever it was. She was a bit taken aback when she found nothing. She looked back in her mirror to find herself staring back. She then looked out her window. Everything looked normal. Or so it seemed.

Tomoyo shook her head thinking she must be really tired to be imagining scary things like that. So she immediately went her way.

But she couldn't help feeling familiar with whatever it was that was staring at her.

A/N: so how was it? I think it was sort of short and crappy… it started when I was just staring at the screen of my computer, my fingers on the keyboard, and for some reason, they just started to type on their own. When I started I didn't know what story this would be, heck I didn't even know who the characters were! But as I continued the story, it got to the point where I could no longer keep the characters hidden so I typed in whatever came in to my mind first, and that was the name "Sakura Kinomoto" so obviously my character would be Tomoyo.

Anyway, I hoped it was ok. This is my first time writing it this way, but it's not my first fic. I have no intention whatsoever to publish my other fanfics. ^_^

I hope you guys help me with this fic, give me ideas as to what'll happen next. I do have the basic plot of this story but I'll need to know what my readers would like to happen… so please! Please rate, read and review! I'll appreciate it a lot! ^_^ mwah! I love you guys!

Autumn ^_^
