Involvement1

A/N: "If you want to write a fic, don't write only one story. You should crossover CLAMP stories. Because if you have to headache, crossover is worth to headache more than a story." My best friend said when she knew I was going to do a multiparter fic.

So I thought again and again until one of my friends offered to help me beta-reading. And the result of it is reveal to your eyes now. Crossover between X/CCS/MKR and some of TB and a little CCD. Anyway, this part doesn't have MKR. They will be here the next chapter, I promise.

Special thanks for Gib, my best friend who bugged the idea of crossover in my brain and Dyoklako, my dear friend who was beta-reading and support me to write it.

I hope you will enjoy.

Involvement
Part 1
By Azure R

"Hi, Karina-chan. It's me, your brother, Nokoru"

"."

"I have news. Kamui is back."

* * *

An hour had passed since Kamui had chosen his destiny to become a Dragon of Heaven and lost the people he love: Kotori and Fuuma. No one expected this would happen. They had brought Kamui immediately to the Imonoyama mansion and tended to his injuries.

Sorata rose from his chair after the staff had gone. No one is in the room except him, because he knows Kamui rather well than the others. So the boy may be more relaxed in his presence.

Kamui is sitting on the bed. Bandages are wrapped around his legs, arms and chest. He is holding Kotori's head in his lap absently. The monk glanced at the boy and saw something wrong in those purple eyes. It was cloud.

"KamuiKAMUI!" He yelled at the younger seal.

Kamui wasn't responding. Sorata clenched his fists. He sighed deeply and left the bedroom to tell the others in the next room who waited for his news.

* * *

Seishirou sneaked in Kamui's heart and saw the little Kamui running with Kotori and Fuuma. He looked so happy and cheerful. Suddenly, Fuuma was torn in two parts and the dark Kamui appeared with the Shinken. He plunged it into Kotori's chest with an evil grin on his face.

"NO!" Kamui cried and sank into the ground.

The Sakurazukamori knelt behind Kamui and touched his shoulder. Kamui jumped up and faced the intruder with tears in his eyes.

"Sakurazukamori?" Kamui said hesitantly.

Seishirou chuckled and caressed the boy's cheek.

"You know, you are so cute, Kamui-kun"

"What are you doing here?" Kamui asked. He slapped Seishirou's hand and stepped back from the man. He remembered the last time that he met the assassin.

"Oh, I just wanted to see how a poor boy like you cried for tragedy and escaped reality. If I were you, I would do something"

"What do you mean?" He asked angrily.

"The blind princess lied to you. She said you would save your pretty girlfriend, if you become a Dragon of Heaven. But what happened? Your friend betrayed you and killed his sister. You didn't do anything? Like revenge? No. All you did was to stay here, telling yourself it was all a dream, even though you know that it isn't true." Seishirou added in mock concern.

Kamui didn't say anything. He stood there and clenches his fist tightly.

"Oh, I see. You're a coward You are afraid"

"Shut up" Kamui said in low voice.

"Why? I only said the truth. You are afraid." Seishirou purred

"I SAID SHUT UP! AND GET AWAY FROM ME"

* * *

In the other room. Yuzuriha cried in Seiichirou's arms while the older man tried to comfort her. The others are standing separately around the room.

Sorata came into the room and the others looked up.

"How is Kamui?" Arashi asked Sorata, concern in her eyes.

"He didn't respond to my calling. He's been like that ever since... A girl who was really important to him..... was killed in front of his eyes by a guy who was equally important. It's possible that he will never regain consciousness...I dunno.

"If he doesn't regain consciousness, what will happen to him!?" Yuzuriha asked with tears in her eyes.

"He'll stay like that. He won't see anything. Nor hear anything. All clamed up inside his heart...Forever...."

Subaru winced, he felt like he was seeing himself nine years ago. 'It has happened again, Hokuto-chan. No, I don't want Kamui felt to be in the same situation like mine.'

He walked to the door and turned the knob when the monk asked him, "What are you doing?"

He went inside the room and sat beside Kamui.

"I'm going into Kamui's heart." He replied before he took the boy's hand in his. Instantly, he felt something was wrong. Someone was in Kamui's heart at this moment.

The only one he knows that can do this is 'the Sakurazukamori'

"I SAID SHUT UP AND GET AWAY FROM ME"

Kamui's scream made everyone a jump in surprise but they were relieved to see the boy's eyes had no clouds anymore. They were now replaced with sadness, anger and bitterness.

However, it seemed that Kamui still didn't know himself much. He gave Kotori's head to Sorata and sank in the bed. Subaru wants to ask him about Seishirou but he knew this time isn't appropriate.

The others went out of the room, leaving Kamui alone.

* * *

Sakura was sitting in the coffee shop. It's been a long time since she had gathered all the Clow cards. Although she now teaches at Clamp Campus, Kerberus or Kero-chan still wakes her up every morning.

"Sakura-chan. Sorry, I'm late" Tomoyo greeted and sat opposite her.

"It's okay." Sakura smiled at her friend.

Tomoyo is her best friend and one of the top five designers in Japan now.

"What happened? You look serious."

"Last night I dreamt something bad but I couldn't remember. I may go visit Hinoto-hime today"

Tomoyo nodded. Hinoto summoned Sakura three years ago and told her about the end of the world. She requested Sakura to help her.

"It's just a dream. Don't worry."

"I hope so." Sakura said and looked out the window and into the sky.

* * *

Everyone was sitting in the living room. They were worried about Kamui's reaction and discussed about what to do. Subaru was more disturbed about Seishirou's appearance in Kamui's heart. He was afraid of what the older man wanted with Kamui.

"Yuzuriha, could you go upstairs and check on Kamui-kun?" Seiichirou asked.

"Yup" Yuzuriha got up and walked out of the room with her spirit dog. After two minutes, they heard running steps and knew something was wrong.

"What happened?"

"Kamui is not in his room and the Shinken is missing as well!"

"I will inform Imonoyama-san" Sorata said and almost hurried out the room when they heard Hinoto's voice in their mind.

"Kamui is in the underground of the Diet building with me"

* * *

When they arrived at the basement of the Diet Building. Hinoto's servants told them that Kamui came in thirty minutes ago and he was still in Hinoto's chamber. The younger seal looked so strange. They wanted to be with the princess but she dismissed them out of the room.

The scene in Hinoto's chamber shocked them. Kamui stood in the middle like a stone. The Shinken is in his hand and it is all red. Hinoto was lying next to him in a pool of blood.

"Princess!" Souhi, Hien and Saiki exclaimed at the same time in disbelief. They ran to Hinoto, checking any sign of her life. But it was too late. Hinoto was dead.

Yuzuriha and Subaru drag Kamui away from the trio. While the others seals readied themselves to protect the head of the Seals from the trio's attack.

"KAMUI! Don't think you would get out of here alive" Saiki said angrily and waved his power to Kamui.

Subaru raised his ofuda to create a shield around the boy. However, it wasn't necessary because an aura appeared to protect Kamui. Sorata glanced briefly before concentrating to receive another attack. He had seen Kamui's aura once. He was aware that this aura looked very much like Kamui's but it's not his. And another thing was that Kamui's eyes look blank, as if he didn't know what was happening around him.

Another attack is intercepted by someone else's power.

"Stop! Saiki-san"

Everyone turned around and saw a woman at the doorway. She has green eyes and long brown hair.

"Sakura-sama" Souhi and Hien exclaimed.

"I can't, he killed Hinoto-hime"

"Please stop" Hinoto's spirit appears over her dead body.

"Princess!"

"Don't blame Kamui. I know this will happen. He had done it because he angry that I lied to him. He would be able to safe his girlfriend, if he becomes a seal. Right now, he is not himself." Hinoto explained.

"But "

"Please promise me that you will not attack Kamui again, please." Hinoto sits on the dais and bows her head to the floor.

The trio ceased immediately.

"Princess don't do that." Saiki begged her.

"No, until you promise me."

They nodded unwillingly.

"Don't worry. I'm still in this world until the Promised Day." Hinoto turned to Sakura and said.

"I would live with you, Sakura-san, if you don't mind."

"I don't mind, princess." Sakura said sadly. She knew Hinoto would be kill by Kamui. But she didn't think it would be today.

The seals were very confused about the whole thing. They didn't know what had happened with Kamui and didn't know this pretty woman.

"Princess. You should introduce her to us." Sorata said.

"This is Sakura Kinomoto. She is my heir."
