"You're not picky, are you?" Shaoran made a jab at him when he woke and found himself tied to something like a pole. He was grinning wickedly as though he wasn't worried at all to be caught by Michael.

"Don't you worry. I just know girls well. She'll come for you, and then I'll have her. Plain and simple, you fool." Oh man, being called a fool was really getting under Shaoran's skin now, but he wasn't going to let his frustration show. No, that would just be giving into what Michael wanted. Michael had healed his knee completely and was walking back and forth in front of Shaoran. "Well, I don't think I'm going to hurt you like I hurt her. No, I was far too easy on her. You…"

The nasty grin the appeared on the man's young features was enough to send shivers down Shaoran's spine and cause him to worry. Michael lifted his hand as it began to glow before it took a totally different shape. His hand had turned into a rock drill, spinning viciously and very close to Shaoran's face. He wanted to close his eyes, he didn't want to watch what was going to come next, but… he couldn't show weakness. No, he had to be strong, like Sakura.

Michael's eyes narrowed as he looked into Shaoran's. The amount of determination in the boy's eyes was just sickening to him and he glared before stabbing that spinning drill into Shaoran's torso just outside the ribs. The blood splattered everywhere while Shaoran's face contorted in pain, but not once did he scream. The drill was pulled out and slammed into the other side. This time he huffed deeply, but didn't cry out.

At this rate, Shaoran was going to bleed out before his heroin arrived, but he had no idea what to do. "Scream. Call to her. Draw her in like a wounded puppy would his master. I want you to see me destroy her, before your eventual death." The laugh that came from him was pure evil and Shaoran shook his head widely.

"No!...No…" Tears streaked down his face while he fought back screams. He couldn't hold out much longer, but then he heard it. Her voice was calling through the darkness that now enveloped him as the drill was stabbed into his leg.

"Shaoran! Call to me!" She begged as she ran through a wooded area of the town where she felt his presence. That's how she knew they were meant to be, how she knew he was her number one. Their souls were connected; she could feel him as she drew nearer to where he was.

"… Sakura!" He cried out and she could hear the pain in his voice, which caused her to run faster through the woods. She came out upon a large clearing, which she never knew was there before. And then she saw him, bleeding terrible and crying. He was in so much pain, yet not making a single sound. She almost broke down herself, but instead she glared at Michael.

"What are you going to do, Master Sakura? Hmmmm…" He laughed again and stabbed Shaoran in his other leg. This time he couldn't hold it in, no, he let out a pained cry and his chin fell to his chest as his whole body fell limp.

"Shaoran!" Tears fell from her eyes as she glared at Michael. "I'm going to over-power you…" She stated simply before she called upon her staff and called out the four main element cards. Windy flew forward to wrap him up, and as Sakura expected, Windy was being swallowed up by his mana drain. But she accounted for that as she summoned Woody to rise up from the ground and wrap around his ankles, wrists, and neck. She ordered Firey and Watery forward and they both slammed into him, consuming his form in fire and steam.

"Sakura! You may have done it. Good thinking!" Kero said as he watched the sky fill with smoke. She sent Watery once more to put the flames out this time and once they were doused there was nothing but a skeleton with some flesh here and there left. "YOU DID IT! Now, let's get the kid healed before he…" He didn't finish, instead he and Yue, who came out of no where as if mentally summoned, flew toward Shaoran.

Sakura collapsed to her knees and cried into her hands again. The worry and the tire from using so many strong cards hit her all at once and she was now sick and tired. She heard them all talking around her, heard Tomoyo come to her side to ask if she was okay, but she couldn't make herself talk before she fell flat on her face, completely out cold.
