Everyone's in their 3rd year of high school. Syaoran came back from Hong Kong and is now dating Sakura. Kaho does not exists, and more is to be said.)

Pairings: Sakura Syaoran

Tomoyo Eriol

Shuay(OC) Yue


"Hey Sakura!" yelled the preppy Tomoyo. "Leave me alone." muttered Sakura as she fitted her hands in her pockets and began walking away. "Sakura?" asked the worried Tomoyo as she placed a hand on her shoulder. "Eeek!!" screamed Tomoyo as Sakura grabbed the hand and flipped her over. Tomoyo waited for the concrete as she squeezed her eyes tight.

Only to be caught by a pair of strong arms. "E-e-eriol." she stuttered as she opened her eyes. "Are you ok?" asked the worried Eriol. "H-hai." she said as Eriol's expression turned from worried to anger. "Why did you do that!" yelled Eriol angrily at the bored Sakura who was examining her nails. "Do what?" asked the bored Sakura as she boredly looked at him. "Throw Tomoyo like that!" he snapped back. "Who cares? You caught her. What's past is past." said Sakura boredly as she walked away. "What the hell is wrong with you?!" snarled Eriol. "If you're sick or mad, just tell us!" he continued. Sakura stopped walking and turned around. Eriol and Tomoyo cringed at the soft smile that Sakura had on.

"Sick you ask? Now why would I be mad or sick at you?" asked Sakura in a disgustingly sweet voice. "We-we-well we had never seen you mad and you might be the type to take your anger out on people" said Eriol, losing his ground. "Is that what you think of me?" asked Sakura softly in a dangerously soft smile. "It's because of you PEOPLE that I'm sick!" yelled Sakura as she punched Eriol's jaw in the side. A dark bruise formed by his jaw as he realized that he was spitting out blood. "Now do you feel better? Feel better to have your moment? Feel better to look above me?! Do you?!" snapped Sakura as she grabbed his shirt and held his face close to her. Tomoyo watched with fear as she watched Sakura smiled a cruel disgusting smile.

"Do you feel better than everyone who are below you? Do you feel better when you made a soul suffer for 600 years? Do you feel better when you stole a soul away from their love and made him your creation?" whispered Sakura darkly. Eriol turned to fear as Sakura's eyes became more slanted, more darker, and more vengeful. She smiled cruelly as he felt her other hand that was not holding him, crackled with silvery black electricity. She raised it up to show him it and moved it quickly for his face. "Sakura!!" Eriol who had his eyes closed, opened them, and saw that her electrocuting palm was a mere centimeter away.

Sakura turned her face, clearly not pleased with the results. "Ah Meiling... and of course you brought Syaoran." she said, every word dripping with malice. Eriol felt himself be pushed to Syaoran who carried him to Tomoyo where she sobbed in apology. SLAP! Sakura's face was slapped in the left and was so hard that her neck popped.

"What the hell is wrong with you, Kinomoto?!" growled Meiling as she glared furiously at her. Sakura's face, which did not move after being slapped, slowly twisted her face to Meiling. Bored, dangerous eyes stared at Meiling with a small smile of upper hand was pasted on Sakura's face. Meiling, who was still stunned by her expression, was grabbed in the face with both hands where they stood 3 inches apart. "Don't think you would be welcomed, Li." said Sakura who lost her smile and was now looking at her with the same eyes but the smile was replaced with a snarl of anger.

"You conceited little bitch." said Sakura with a hint of hatred in her voice. Syaoran and the other two was shocked that Sakura called Meiling "Li", was even more shocked by the bitch. "A descendent of Clow Reed is NEVER allowed at the crystal." growled Sakura. Meiling's eyes turned blank with fear as they widened with Sakura's words, repeating over and over again in her mind. "A never ending pain and misery in the crystal. A never ending circle." whispered Sakura who was smiling a smile of misery. Meiling stood weakly as Sakura let her go slowly. "Is that what you want? To never search for happiness again?" asked Meiling hoarsely as the three looked at her in surprise.

"No I given up on that a long time ago." snarled Sakura as she grabbed Meiling the same way as before again, only this time Meiling could feel Sakura's two fingers, digging into the soft tissues of her left cheek. Rain fell instantly as Sakura finished those words, pouring hard as though, trying to yell out the pain, hiding in someone. "I search for only one thing, but don't worry I'm still searching for the lost fill to the emptiness." Sakura whispered the last part out. "What are you? What is your place in the crystal?" asked Meiling hoarsely, only to have the answer flash in her memories.

Flashback

"God gathered all the crystals and with God's power, united them with a single tear of pain." Meiling's mother said as she read Meiling the small passage in the old book.

End Flashback

"God." whispered Meiling quietly as her eyes were erased of any signs of life with only shock and misery in her eyes to show life. Sakura's two fingers went across Meiling's cheek fast, leaving two bloody lines of two long cuts on her cheeks. "To them, I am the closest thing there is to God." said the non-smiling girl, darkly as she made those two bloody lines. Meiling could feel her eyes well up with tears as she slumped down to the ground, her eyes never blinking. Syaoran and Tomoyo made a move to Meiling but was stopped -- "Sakura!!"

Everyone turned to see a running Toya who was out of breath. When Toya got to them, he bent down, trying to catch his breath. The three (not Meiling as she is in a temporary trauma) saw Sakura's face turned from dark to a totally fake genki face. "Onii-chan!" she said, her voice changed completely. Toya who had not noticed the company until he found himself glaring at the gaki. "Gaki." he growled, but was surprised when he saw that Syaoran wasn't even glaring at him. "Toya? Could I lean on you a bit? I'm afraid that I might fall asleep while walking." said Sakura as she yawned tiredly. Toya rolled his eyes. "Sure kaijuu, come on otou-san's getting worried." he said, getting a stomp from Sakura. ("Sakura no Kaijuu!!" said Sakura.) Sakura placed a hand on his shoulder, and the two siblings began walking away, leaving the four staring at them. While walking, Sakura turned her head around, and smiled like she had won a battle, calmly and evilly.

Toya slightly turned his head to Sakura. Something was different about Sakura and he knew it. She acted normally but could tell something was going on. The girl next to him was Sakura but her attitude certainly didn't belong to Sakura at all... ok maybe a piece did. Sakura who felt the wave of concern in her brother, looked up with innocent emerald eyes. "What's wrong, onii-chan?" asked Sakura. Toya felt himself go red with embarrassment of being caught and merely continued walking. Sakura smiled darkly as she stopped walking so Toya became more forward than her, causing her arm to become slightly bent in front of her since she had her hand on Toya's shoulder, her hand still grasping his shoulder.

Sakura's soft, dark smile dropped as she squeezed Toya's shoulder tightly. Silvery, black electricity went dancing across her connected arm to Toya. Toya, who just noticed the squeezed hand and that Sakura stopped walking, turned his head behind, only to see silvery, black electricity coming towards him. It struck him in the shoulder where Sakura was grasping and the electricity shocked his entire body, as his eyes widened and he gave a loud "Auhhhhhh!!!" he screamed loudly, as the pain circled in him. He collapsed, clearly knocked out. "Sorry Toya-kuuuun. But I have business to do." Sakura said as she purred the Kun out. She teleported themselves in front of the Kinomoto residence and opened the door.

"Otou-san!! Otou-san!!!" yelled the crying Sakura as she opened the door. Fujitaka, who heard her cry, came running to the front entrance. "Sakura?! What happened to Toya?!!" he exclaimed as he carried Toya to the living room and laid him down on the couch. "I-I-I think he got sick! I-I mean when he told me to come home and so we started walking. But then it started raining hard, and-and he collapsed!!" wailed Sakura. "It's all my fault!!" Fujitaka patted her back gently. "It's not your fault." he said gently as he grabbed the wet cloth that he had grabbed with a bucket of water while carrying Toya. Sakura's malice eyes widened at his words and she stopped crying. Fujitaka placed the wet towel on Toya's forehead, since Toya was a little hot in the head. Sakura's bangs covered her eyes as Fujitaka began humming as he dried Toya with a towel. "Fujitaka..." whispered Sakura softly. Fujitaka, who had never heard his children called him by his name, was startled, and turned to look at her. But halfway, he felt an electricity shock him through his neck, the last thing he heard was "Gomen Nasai." But the world was black already.
