CHAPTER 8

Princess Sakura was excited. Someone very important to her was coming over to play. But he wasn't here yet. "I wonder where he is? Is he lost?...I-I better go look for him!"

She ran around looking for this person, pretty much everywhere, the only place she hadn't searched was the dungeon...but why would he be there of all places? She was getting worried. Suddenly, she heard voices. One was her brother, the other was someone else. Her brother was outside one of the dudgeon cells, acting all arrogant about something. "I don't care! A stupid twerp like you is not good enough to play with my sister! You are not good enough for my cute little Sakura-chan!"

"Ah...ok, then can you please tell me what I can do to be good enough to be friends with the princess?"

"Nothing so doesn't even try!" Touya laughed, "And another thing, I really-"

For some reason, this made Sakura extremely angry and she pushed her brother to the cold, stone floor, "NII-CHAN, STOP THIS! STOP BEING MEAN TO HIM!"

Touya sighed, "I can't help it! He annoys me! Yukito keeps going on about how its all destinies and that it's useless to fight it...but I am not going to let the brat have you so easily! You being around him pisses me off and just...don't like it!"

"I don't really know what you are talking about and I don't care! He is important to me! I don't want you to treat him that way!" Sakura said. She poked her tongue at him angrily then opened the door...but no one was there. "I'm sorry, are you ok? Want me to hit my brother for you?"

She held out her hands to something. Someone must have been in there, surely, because there was a voice that answered, "I'm fine, don't worry about it. It doesn't bother me"

And then for some reason, she was filled with happiness. And she smiled, "I'm glad! I'm happy to see you again! Now let's go play!"

Sakura's eyes opened and she was filled confusion. "Who was I talking to? Who was I saving from my brother, from being locked up? I don't...understand..."

This was always happening to her. Occasionally when she got a memory back, it seemed like there was something important missing from it. Everything was still a blur...but maybe questions would be answered, things would become clearer once she regained more of her memories. She sighed and sat up in bed. She looked around and she discovered that she was in a bedroom. By the looks of the lovely dove framed-photos on the dressing table. Yukito and Touya's bedroom.

"Did you sleep well?"

Syoran was at the door. She gasped and smiled happily, "You're all better!"

"Yeah, Yukito healed me. We beat him, Princess. And it's all thanks to you; if you hadn't grabbed your feather like that, I would have been dead for sure. Thank you so much!"

Sakura blushed, "W-Where's everyone else? Is Fai ok...or is he still...?"

"Fai is fine. Kurogane saved him ages ago and they are now at the hotel" Syoran answered, "We're finished in this world. We'll leave for the next one as soon as everyone is ready." He turned to leave the room, smiling, "Come on, now that you are awake, I think Yukito and Touya want to see you. Yukito was very worried about you, he still feels bad about everything that he did."

Sakura smiled and got out of bed and followed him out of the room. She may not have her full memories just yet, some things were still a blur...but she knew that one day she will regain them all once again, with Syoran by her side. As long as Syoran was with her, she knew things would be ok.

"I...I can't remember what I did but Touya-san told me everything that has happened these last few months and it sounds like I have been a truly horrible person. I have kidnapped some of the townspeople, one of your friends and hurt the both of you...and I hear I was planning, even attempted, to do even more horrible things..." then he started bowing in forgiveness, "I'm sorry! I'm sorry! I'm so sorry!"

"It's fine! Everything turned out fine so don't worry about it!" Sakura said with a smile.

"Are you sure? What I've done was so-"

"If she says its ok then its ok" Touya said firmly, "The one you have to convince is everyone else. But don't worry, leave that to me"

Touya and Yukito was a happy couple again. And later, with Sakura, Syoran, and Mokona helping, Touya calmly explained what happened in a way that would not make an angry vengeful mob chase his lover.

At the end of it all, everyone was happy. Yukito smiled, "Well, are you going home now?"

"Well, we will have to leave town soon...but we are currently staying in a hotel."

"Oh really, Well, please visit again before you leave, I would like that" he hesitated and added, frowning sadly, "And would you please bring your wizard friend with you? I would like to apologize for what I did to him"

Syoran laughed, "You don't need to apologies any more, but yes, we will bring Fai over later. We'll come by tomorrow"

"Thank you" Yukito said gratefully.

"Ok. Bye, see you later then" Syoran said while Mokona and Sakura waved goodbye.
