I'm back with another chapter! Yay! I'm actually enjoying this story even though I don't have much of an idea where it will be going.

Disclaimer: No I don't own Tsubasa sorry...

The gem on Mokona's head glowed and showed the witch lounging on her couch with a glass in her head.

"Did you find it?" She asked coolly before sipping on whatever was in the glass.

Kurogane folded his arms across his chest. "Yeah but you never said it would turn into a cat." He growled.

"Well if you wanted to know that it took the form of a cat then you should have asked." She said with a smirk tugging at the corners of her mouth.

"How could I have know to ask if it could turn into a cat?" He yelled at her.

Yuuko ignored him. "Would you mind transporting it over here, Mokona?" she asked.

"Sure thing!" it said and opened its mouth and sucked in the cat.

"Thank you." She said as she reached down and grabbed the plectrum that was now in its original form.

"Tell us what's wrong with the mage." Kurogane demanded.

"You're very impatient. Not even a please." Yuuko scolded.

"Now." He growled and glared at the witch.

She returned the icy stare. "Fine." She said coldly, "To put it simply he no longer has a heart."

"No longer has a heart? But how is that possible?" Syoaran asked.

Yuuko took another sip of her drink. "It was stolen, but don't worry he's still very much alive."

"I'm glad that he's alive." Sakura said letting out a sigh of relief.

Yuuko starred at her for a while. "Kurogane, I think I need to talk to you about this, but alone." She said.

"Why can't we know what's happened to Fai?" Sakura shouted the question out quickly.

Syoaran grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the room to comfort her. Kurogane nodded to him to show his thanks.

Yuuko looked at Fai's body. "Mokona, please go to sleep." She said quietly.

It nodded and fell asleep on the floor.

"So what's so important that you had to talk to me alone?" Kurogane asked.

"I'm surprised that he isn't dead. Not many others would still be alive after going what he's been through." Yuuko said, "Kurogane, are you glad that Fai is alive?"

"Well, I guess so." Kurogane said.

"You shouldn't be." Yuuko said simply. Before Kurogane could ask she added, "I can assure you that he is in more pain right not than he's ever been in his life. Removing someone's heart isn't easy to do and it certainly is anything other than painless."

"Will he survive?" Kurogane asked.

Yuuko thought for a moment before answering. "Since he can do magic himself I say he would only live for a few days." Yuuko said, "So from the time his heart was stolen till now was a day. I don't think he'll survive much longer."

"Where are the people that took his heart?" Kurogane asked as his hand tightened into a fist.

"It's no use you won't get there in time." Yuuko informed as she finished the last of her drink and looked at the empty cup sadly.

"I might. But we'll never know if I don't try now will we?" Kurogane asked determinedly.

Yuuko smiled at him, "No I suppose we won't." She said as she continued to smile.

Kurogane grinned at the victory. "Well then…" he said.

"The place where the things are… will be told after you go out and buy me a bottle of sake as a price!" She exclaimed happily.

"I can't go out shopping now! Tell me where whoever took Fai's heart is first and I'll buy you two bottles of sake when I get back." Kurogane bargained.

"Hmm." Yuuko thought about the idea, "But what if you don't come back?"

Kurogane sighed. "If I don't come back in three days then Sakura and Syoaran will get you the sake." He said.

Yuuko nodded, "Very well then." She said, "The things that took Fai's heart live in the closet mountain in the world you are in. I don't know exactly where on the mountain but you will know when you get there."

Kurogane nodded. "I should get going then." He said and pushed himself up.

"Wait, wake up Mokona." Yuuko said and Kurogane did as she ordered.

Mokona opened his mouth and something small landed on the floor. Kurogane picked it up and examined it. It was a small bracelet with metallic sliver beads. There was a larger bead that was foggy but clear enough that Kurogane could see himself in it.

"Use that when you find his heart." She said, "You have about two and a half days to find his heart and return it to his body. If you fail to do so then Fai will die."

"I'm going to find him. You don't have to worry about him dying because he won't." Kurogane said quickly.

"I wish you luck." She said and cut off the connection.

He turned around and walked out the room. 'Time to tell the kids.' He thought with a sigh.

He let Mokona jump out of the room to go and find the kids before looking at Fai's body.

"I'll get you back, Fai. I promise." He said quietly and left the room.

A lone tear slid down the mage's face.

I'm so sad! no actually it has nothing what-so-ever to do with the story actually... Band camp is going to be over tomorrow! And that means I can't avoid doing my summer work anymore! NOOO! LOL I actually started it I did two problems in the math packet but thats it. lol

To Lupine Magician:

Aww you looked forward to readin this? That makes me happy. Yeah I hope to become I writer when I'm older. If you ever see a book called JENNA then that's me but don't read it but run away quickly cause its sorta saditistic (Okay very saditistic) and depressing. I really doubt that I'm going to be able to become an author though so I think I'll aim for teacher or architect or photographer until the writing career takes off (if it ever does). But until then I'm satisfied with writing on fanfiction. :)

-Dusk

Review please? To make me feel better about band camp ending?
