Chapter 2
Changing the Future, Sakura Reborn
"You saw it too?" I asked shakily. He nodded and sat back on his heels. I grabbed his hand and said, "I know how to change the future."
"Kero, Yue, please come back in," I called. The doors swung open and they floated in, poised to fight. I smiled on them and an odd look came across Yue's face.
"Is something wrong Sakura?" he asked.
"Um, well I sort of unlocked the power to see in to the future," I said. Kero and Yue froze then growled and rounded on Eriol.
"What… have… you… DONE?" Yue hissed.
"How could you?" Kero growled, baring his teeth.
"Kero, Yue, stop it now," I ordered the coughed into my arm again. I froze and finally understood what put me in the hospital. What I thought would be just a cold would turn out to be the cause of my death.
"Why Sakura? Why did you do it?" Kero asked, sounding heartbroken.
"To help you," I whispered.
"What do you mean?" Yue asked and flew to my side.
"In a short period of time… I will… die," I said. Yue and Kero froze once again the shouted, "WHAT!"
"I will die. But, I think I know a way to keep you and the cards alive," I said then turned to Eriol, "I have to be reborn."
Eriol's eyes widened slightly then rubbed his chin thoughtfully.
"That might just work. If we can have you reborn right when you're supposed to die, the cards, Yue and Kero should be able to survive. But I'm not sure what would happen to you or your memories," he said.
"Whoa, hold on a second, Sakura's going to die and be reborn?" Kero demanded.
"Yes, and she is doing it to save all of you. Sakura, I need you to look into the future one more time, and see the future of this planet without you being there to save it," Eriol said. I nodded and closed my eyes, slipping in to a vision of the future.
**VISION***
I hovered above the Earth and I gasped in horror and shock. The planet was covered in fire, burning everything to the ground. People, animals, land, it was all destroyed. YOU WERE NOT HERE TO SAVE THIS PATHETIC PLANET SAKURA KINOMOTO, said a horrible voice that rang in my head. Fire enveloped me and I screamed and was thrown back to the present.
**END OF VISION***
I screamed and sat up quickly. Yue and Kero were at my side in an instant and Syaoran and Tomoyo came rushing in.
"What's wrong?" Syaoran shouted and slid down next to me.
"B-bad future… f-f-fire and-d c-creepy v-v-voice," I stuttered then began coughing again.
"You're not making any sense," Syaoran said frustrated.
"She saw a bad future for the planet," Eriol said.
"Oh my," Tomoyo said, her hands flying to her mouth. I broke into yet another coughing fit and looked up at Eriol who caught my gaze and nodded.
"Perhaps, it would be better if Sakura was reborn before she was supposed to die," Eriol said.
"Wait, what?" Syaoran demanded. Eriol told them about the recent turn of events. Syaoran turned pale, Tomoyo looked horrified, and I just continued to cough.
"How much time does Sakura have left?" Syaoran said in a tight voice.
"Twenty three hours, nine minutes and forty seven seconds," I replied automatically. Syaoran, Tomoyo, Yue and Kero stared at me with huge eyes. Eriol nodded and said, "I think it would be wise to call your father and brother over."
I nodded and Ruby Moon handed me a cell phone. I dialed my house phone number and tapped my foot impatiently as the phone rang.
"Hello?" my dad's voice rang through my ear.
"Dad, I need you and Toya to come over here right now, it's urgent," I said.
"Where are you?" he asked as he called for Toya. I gave him the address and the directions.
"Okay sweetie, we'll be right there," he said.
"Okay, see you soon," I said and hung up. I looked up and found Syaoran pacing around like a caged tiger, Eriol talking to Kero and Yue, and Tomoyo and Mrs. Mizuki talking to each other. A few minutes later there were tire screeches outside and two car door slams. The door bell rang frantically and Eriol got up and answered it. Dad and Toya came rushing in and looked around confused.
"What's going on?" my dad asked.
"Please sit down and I'll explain the situation to you," Eriol said. Toya looked at me suspiciously and I nodded encouragingly. Eriol explained everything, about the Clow cards, Kero and Yue, how Clow was reincarnation, and the weird test that Eriol put me up to so that he wouldn't be the most powerful magician anymore. Finally he told them about the future and the plan we had to save it.
"So, Sakura's going to die then be reborn?" Dad asked. Eriol nodded and Toya grinded his teeth together.
"How can Sakura die? Isn't she like, I don't know, an all powerful mage?" Toya asked flinging his arms up.
"She has caught an illness that no medicine or spell can heal. Thousands have died from it before, including my father and mother," Eriol said.
"She'll still be Sakura though, won't she?" Dad asked.
"In a manner of speaking, yes. But listen to me closely, as I have told Yue I will now tell you; the dead can never truly be brought back. Like I am Clow I am also just his reincarnation, as are you," Eriol said staring grimly at my father. Dad looked sadly at me and pulled into a tight hug.
"I'm so sorry Sakura," he whispered in my ear.
"Why are you sorry? It's not like either one of us could have prevented this," I said. He stepped back then looked strongly at Eriol.
"Let's give it a try," he said firmly. Eriol nodded kindly, and then extended a hand to me. I took it and he led me into a room filled with scrolls and magic circles. He cleared away some lose books and laid me down in the middle of a giant golden circle. The others waited behind him watching me with anxious eyes and Toya looked at me sadly, but kindly.
"See you again soon, monster," he said playfully. I smiled at him bravely even though my whole frame was shaking. I nodded and Eriol began to chant in a soft, lyrical voice. I felt a fuzzy warm sensation go around me and closed my eye. The chanting began to sound further and further away. I smiled to myself and slipped into darkness.
