A young woman walked up to a massive door. She looked down for a moment, then looked up. The tightened her grip on her wand, and just before she was about to place her wand in the keyhole to open the door, a hand touched her shoulder. She turned to see a young man, panting, trying to catch his breath. So simply she opened the door, and he quickly caught his breath. They both went in and stood face to face with a figure of some kind. Hour after hour, they fought the figure. Finally, after the 6th hour, the battle was over. The two were slain, a sword wound in each, his arms around hers. A unholy sword, propped up in a pool of holy blood. They have yet, failed again.

Facets
From One End to Another - Sakura Version

By AnimeGamer

-----------------

"Hey you." Syaoran said from behind Sakura, putting his arms around her. Her immediate reaction is to blush. This was visually apparent to her friends in front of her, including Tomoyo, who bothered to bring her new digital camcorder.

"Awwww, look at Sakura-chan blush!" Tomoyo proclaimed. that just made Sakura blush even more, and she looked away from everyone and looked behind her to Syaoran. He was smiling that smile that cost sweat, tears, and her whole heart to produce. It also took her 8 years to make it. But she did it, though it's always with her around.

"Hi Syao-chan." Sakura said back smiling, a smile that radiated like the sun. Syaoran managed to hold back his blush. However, Tomoyo overheard it.

"Syao-chan?" Tomoyo repeated, and just giggled, and kept giggling. She didnt stop giggling until a few hours later. Sakura and Syaoran ignored her comment, but it did make Syaoran blush as well.

"Sake-chan, lets go...everyone is looking at us..." Syaoran said, taking her hand in his.

"Why?" Sakura just replied. Syaoran was puzzled, and it showed on his face. "Oh Syao-chan, you thought I was serious, ne?" Sakura lead the two away to their usual hidden spot from the peeping eyes of the school.

Once they arrived there, they held each other in their arms. Syaoran leaned against the tree, and Sakura leaned on him. Then they just held each other, and it seemed like eternity. No words said, for they didnt have to. Then from far away, the school bell rang. Silently they walked back out. Syaoran with his arms around his Sakura from behind, as they walked back to the school building.

'I doubt you would understand, whomever is reading this. I mean, our words are our actions. You dont learn that until you are really in love with someone. Well, im sure one of my future kids or grandkids are reading this. Well, I love you very much...which makes me wonder, who will be your father, ne? I'm guessing it'll be Syaoran...but enough dreaming...I must go to sleep tomarrow. I dont know why...but I just got this feeling that I need to sleep. Night night diary!'

Sakura quickly finished her diary entry and closed her diary. She then pulled out her clow key and locked the diary. Syaoran somehow made her diary with a lock that can only be opened by the clow key. She wondered how he did it, and then she just looked out into the stars. Somehow, she just then got a feeling that her prince was watching the sky with her. She thought about him, recalling each event of their love, and she slowly closed the curtain to her room. She then silently turned off the lights and went to sleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Sakura looked about around her. People running toward a certain room. That certain room is the flight of stairs. They all headed downward. Sakura was puzzled, she didnt know why people were running down flights of stairs. Suddenly, she noticed the smoke coming out of a building next to hers. She turned around, and she only saw for a split second a white object slam into her building. Flames engulfed the room, and she was thrown clear out of one of the window's buildings and into the other building. A glass spear though her chest. The last thing she saw was a knight. His brown eyes in horror, his tears falling, hitting her glass wound. All she did, was look at him hopefully...hopefully that she would somehow survive.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

'Just a dream...it's just a dream...but...why did it feel so real...?' Sakura thought, her eyes suddenly swelling as her tears came out. She quickly touched her chest, making sure there was no glass spear though her. She got up and went downstairs. She absent mindedly turned on the TV, though she didnt know why. She quickly got a slice of leftover cake and then she looked at the TV. On the screen, fire trucks flew by the screen one by one. The background looked like an American city. Then it cut away to two towers. Two very famous towers, in flames. Sakura just gasped, she immediately dropped her plate of cake, and it broke to several pieces. Touya, hearing the plate break, quickly ran down the stairs with a bat. What he saw, was his younger sister crying, and one look at the TV indicated why she was crying.

"It's going to be a long night..." Touya silently said, and just hugged his sister, conforting her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Did you hear? The World Trade Center got bombed."
"Really?"
"Yeah!"
"Who did it?"
"Dunno, they think it's terrorists."
"I see..."

A familer young man walked by various classmates and took his seat in front of her. Softly, Sakura called out to him. He turned around, his face showing no expression, unlike hers, which showed absolute shock and horror. It was also evident that she has been crying.

"I know..." As if Syaoran already knew what she was going to ask him. "I had the same dream...but what does this mean?" Syaoran asked.

"I dont know...but could this mean that more bad things may be on the way?" Sakura asked back.

"I dont know...but I wouldnt want to know..." Syaoran simply answered, as the school bell rang.

-----------------------------

This is obviously dedicated to those who witnessed and had to see this terrible moment in history, as the twin towers of the World Trade Center went down in flames.

Hi all...sorry if this makes you depressed, or what not. As you can tell, on the title, it says "Sakura Version." This means that there is a different version of this story in the eyes of Syaoran over at mediaminer.org. Why did I put it at mediaminer.org? Well, I just wanna promote that site as well as to have you check out other people's stories over there. Anyway, I hope you like this story at this point, and the next chapter will be in the sometime near future...^_^;;;; Well, later all!
