Complications of Love

By Snow Rabbit

Chapter 3

Sakura opened her eyes. "Sakura! You're awake!" exclaimed Tomoyo.

Sakura sat upright. "SYAORAN!"

"Sakura…maybe you should lie down again…he didn't wake up yet. I'm sorry Sakura. But it's only 10:00 a.m…" Tomoyo said.

*gasp* Sakura got on her feet and stumbled toward Syaoran, lying on the couch with Meiling looking down with a sadness in her eyes. Sakura went on her knees and sobbed on Syaoran's chest while holding his hand. She quickly withdrew herself away from him. His heartbeat had been rapid, but his body was ice cold. Syaoran had an expression of silent pain on his face.

*In the in Between*

Eriol had actually finished all of the laundry in the room with only one washing machine and one dryer. He suddenly felt a rush of sharp, cold air. He lost control of his body and collapsed. He fell on his glasses and they broke. When he opened his eyes, he couldn't see very well, but he knew where he was, right back with Devanii. It felt like hell to be back there.

"Well, well you actually finished. Oh yea! I have a surprise for you!" He pulled something out of his clothes Devanii realized that Eriol couldn't see when he didn't get an angry reaction. With a wave of his hand he gave Eriol 20/20 vision and let him move and talk, a LITTLE bit.

Eriol was a bit shocked because he had worn glasses for almost forever. He then became confused when he saw that Devanii had pulled out a little rat.

"What's that for!?" said Eriol. What had meant to be a shout came out as a soft whisper.

"Ha! I'll show you!" said Devanii, laughing in a dumb sort of evil way. He mumbled some foreign spell and dipped the rat in a jar of dark liquid that was on a table. He then proceeded to throw it at Eriol.

"UUUUUHHHHHHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" shouted Eriol. This time, it came out right. He felt himself shrink and get furry. He panicked because he knew what was happening. He was the rat now.

He fled as he saw his body try to hit him.

"Hmmm, I've never seen a blue rat before!" laughed Devanii.

Eriol tried to bite him as Devanii picked him up and threw him into a network of tubes and exercise wheels. Hope of escape was gone when Devanii magically sealed the trap up.

Devanii dropped a little spark on Eriol' s body and watched with satisfaction as the rat's spirit floated up, shuddered, and died. Eriol the rat watched in horror as Devanii sort of sat on his human part and melted into it.

Eriol/Devanii stood up. He made Eriol's clothes just as they were when he first got to the in Between and made new glasses.

(Author's Note: From now on I'm just gonna call the fake Eriol Devanii and Eriol the rat Eriol.)

Devanii raised his hand at Eriol and a bluish, whitish light went from Eriol to him.

Eriol felt much weaker than before. "Well, you see, most of my powers don't work in your world and if I'm going to be you, I need your powers. Oh, yes. Don't worry, you can't die until I want you to and I want you to experience eternal hunger, at least until I return. Good bye now!" Devanii walked through a wall and was gone.

*Back in Sakura's Living Room*

Touya, with messy hair and wrinkled clothes, raised an eyebrow at the sight of Sakura, Tomoyo, Meiling, and—ggggrrrrrrrrrrrrr—Syaoran meeting so early.

"SAKURA! A word, please!" commanded Touya.

Sakura turned to face Touya. He hadn't seen her crying. *sniff* "Not now Touya, c-can you give me a little while…?"

Touya nodded, looking surprised, but he knew that he should leave, especially from the dark looks Tomoyo and Meiling were giving him. He half ran into the kitchen.

Yue all of a sudden zipped down the stairs and out the door. A moment later he returned just as quickly holding Devanii. Devanii discreetly made Yue let go and fell to the floor. Following his plan he said, "Hmm? Who are you people?"

"Wha…?" said Tomoyo.
