The card stopped somewhere over the ocean and by then Syaoran was out of breath. "She's down there," The card informed him before turning back into card form. Taking a deep breath, Syaoran dove down into the deep depths of the ocean. He searched carefully, but couldn't find her. Soon he was running out of breath and had to go back up. He took a deep breath and dove back in.
This time he saw her. Sakura was lying on a ridge, a sword wedged deep in her chest. 'The sword card. She did this to herself.' Quickly he picked her up and started to kick back to the surface. 'She's not dead otherwise the sword card wouldn't still be here, it would be with Eriol.' He thought as he raced the clock, or so he thought.

Sakura ran her hand over a carving in the wall. She wished she didn't have to leave this comfortable sanctuary where her pain seemed gone. It was a safe sanctuary, safe from pain and sorrow, safe from Syaoran Li. Her mother's castle was big and beautiful.
One of the maids had explained that since she was immortal she could be here but was not officially dead. She had told the maid she envied her, for being able to die. The maid just laughed. Sakura knew that she would have to go home soon but wanted to postpone it as long as she could.

Syaoran sat by Sakura's bed. He knew she was still alive because the Clow Cards were still Sakura Cards. She was hanging on by the barest of threads and it didn't help that she had a fever. What Syaoran didn't know was that he was worrying about nothing because Sakura is immortal. He pulled out the Betrayal Card and an idea struck him. "Betrayal Card, your mistress is in danger. Please help her," Syaoran whispered. The Betrayal appeared and flew into Sakura's motionless body.
'So that is the card mistress! She is so weak and defenseless especially when it comes to that boy. She will be very easy to get rid of.' Thought a shadowy cloaked figure as it watched the scene.

Sakura was sitting in a big picture window staring at the bustle on the ground. The people of the dead city were so happy. It looked as though they didn't have a care in the world. How lucky they were to be dead and be relived of the burden on their shoulders.
They didn't have to live forever, being alive through everything. She would be alive until the world exploded and then would come and live her with her mother. But she would still carry the burdens she had when she was alive, or so her mother told her.
Sakura felt a hand on her shoulder and turned around too see Syaoran.
"Syaoran!" She gasped and her hand flew to her mouth.
"No, not Syaoran. I am the Betrayal card. You created me with your hurt and pain," It corrected.
"Okay. But why are you here?"
"To make you come back. People need you and the Cards are becoming weaker each minute you are here," The Betrayal explained and without another word it seized her wrist and pulled Sakura into the portal it had come through before Sakura could protest.
So, The Betrayal is pulling her through the portal. What will happen to our Heroine? Sorry I took so long in getting this chapter up. I'll only write a sequel if I get 10 reviews. Please review people please review! Jesus Freak signing out!^_~!
