Sakura sat up in her bed looking around the room. Where is every body? She thought to herself.
"Good morning Sakura-hime." She heard a voice behind her call.
"Syaoran-kun?" she asked. She turned and saw him sitting against the wall, sword in hand. "Syaoran-kun, where is everybody?"
"Fai-kun and Kurogane-kun went out to see if there are any feathers nearby. They asked me to stay here and watch you."
"Oh…" she said. I thought that this is why Kurogane-kun was teaching me how to use a dagger. So I could go with them on their outings and help look for feathers.
"Ne, Syaoran-kun? Do you think we could go out and help look?" she asked.
"I'm sorry Sakura-hime but they told me to stay here, so you are going to have to stay here too."
"But Syaoran-kun! I can protect myself! I'm not like how I used to be! I know how to act in other worlds!"
"No is no Sakura-hime." Sakura sighed. This always happened. Syaoran was just to over protective, but it was worse than usual today. Just then she remembered her dream from last night. Fai was sitting in a forest covered in snow. Next to him were two girls. One with long blonde hair pulled back into a braid and the other with light brown hair in a ponytail. They were dancing around him, laughing and singing a song in some language unknown to Sakura. Out of nowhere the blonde girl dropped to the ground and the other girl started freaking out. The brunette said some words and then she dropped to the ground. A few minutes later the blonde stood back up, looking quite dazed. The whole time Fai just sat there, tears running down his cheek.
"Um… Syaoran-kun? I just remembered that I have to tell Fai-san something." She muttered.
"Tell him what? Can't you just wait until he gets back?"
"No it's really important! Please Syaoran-kun!" She gave him her best puppy face. After a few minutes he gave in and stood up.
"Come on, if you're leaving I'm coming too." He said and followed her out the door.

"Hey Magician. Isn't that what you're looking for?" Kurogane pointed out a circular object with strings woven through the middle. Three feathers were connected to the bottom of it.
"Wow! Kuro-puuu is so smart! That is exactly what I'm looking for! Come on, let's go and buy it!" The two of them walking into the small store and as Fai went and got the object Kurogane asked a worker what the strange object was.
"You wanna know 'bout that ol' thing?" The old man who Kurogane was talking to smiled, reviling three missing teeth and one gold one. "Tis called a Dream catcher. Said 'round these parts 'at if you 'ave one you wont 'ave nightmares, or even dreams."
"Really…" Why does Fai need this thing then? Was it because of the dream he had last night? Kurogane recalled the look on the magicians face as he sat up in bed last night. One of complete and utter fear.
"Ne Kuro-wan wan?" Kurogane was snapped out of his thoughts as he came face to face with Fai. "Isn't it pretty! I think I want to buy this one."
Waving him off Kurogane said, "Do whatever you want. It's none of my business." Once the purchase was made the two made there way out onto the street where they ran into Syaoran and Sakura. Kurogane growled and mumbled something to himself while Fai smiled.
"So, what are you two out shopping for?" He asked.
"Actually I have something to tell you Fai-san." Sakura said. Fai leaned down and she whispered to him the dream that she had last night. When she finished, his face went pale and he dropped the dream catcher.
"Watch it!" Kurogane yelped as he caught the bag. "We had to pay money for this you know." When he went to hand Fai the bag he noticed how pale his face was.
"Are you ok Fai-san?" Syaoran inquired. Fai blinked once, twice, and then quickly put on a happy face.
"Yes, I'm fine. Something just came across my mind." He said to the group. "We should get headed back to the room now; it's starting to get dark." Everyone agreed so the small group of travelers headed back to where they originally started out at the beginning of the day.

Sorry that this chapter is kind of short. I know that all of them are, but I was rushed on this one so I had to make it shorter. Please review and if you have the time.
