Ch-10-Tactics

"Sakura!" Syaoran yelled hitting the door of Sakura's room. Sakura opened her eyes, looking sleepily at the door.

"Rain can you get it . . . " Sakura mumbled,

"Sakura-sama I believe it's Li-sama."

"Syaoran-kun!" Sakura bolted up upon hearing his name, she raced to the door and opened it.

"Syaoran-kun, what's the matter?" Asked Sakura,

"I have to talk to you." Sakura instantly let Syaoran and Raiden inside.

"What is it you want to talk about, Syaoran-kun?" Asked Sakura,

"Someone from the Kage got into the cave . . . "

"What!"

"Yeah, me and Kin fought it."

"Are we safe now?!"

"I don't know, but I think we should tell them about, what happened at the library."

"But Mr.Piano said not to."

"I know but, what choice do we have? Kin is obsessed with killing the Kage, I think all the others are too. Besides Kin is the one who killed Meiling."

"That-that can't be . . . " Stuttered Sakura,

"We have to tell them. We have no choice."

"But-"

"Sakura, this is . . . war now," mumbled Syaoran looking away from Sakura. Sakura looked sadly at Syaoran, and nodded.

"Okay, let's go!"

---

"Impossible!" Yelled Silver slamming her hand on the table.

"It's true!" Kin yelled back,

"Even if it were true or not, we have to be more careful now." Said Keikoku, Marina nodded.

"Where are Syaoran and Sakura-chan?" Asked Silver, Kin turned away.

"Syaoran isn't taking this seriously enough. We have to kill all the Kage!" Yelled Kin, all of them nodded.

"But they can help us, can't they?" Asked Marina,

"They could, but if what Kin says is true. Then they'll get killed." Silver said bitterly, suddenly everyone faced the doorway.

Syaoran and Sakura had heard the whole conversation, "Sakura-chan! Syaoran! Um . . . did you . . . " Syaoran and Sakura nodded.

"It's alright Silver-chan." Said Sakura,

"Kin, I understand perfectly well." Said Syaoran facing Kin; Kin said nothing.

"We have something to tell you." Syaoran said, looking at Sakura; Sakura then began. She explained what happened at the library and what Clow Reed told her in the dream,

"'Long ago, in a time where magic existed and demons roamed the Earth. A daily battle between forces alike would clash in a bloody battle between brethren and brethren. It was the day the world would end, the day when the great clans went to war. Darkness to Light, Light to Darkness. Was how it was seen, only to the four in between. In the end it was bloodshed for all. The end came near when they saved us from all. From heaven itself it was sent. Raining Sins. Ending with rain and thunder, blood did pour from all who stayed in the watery field of gold.'"

"Do you understand?" Asked Sakura, all four of them nodded. They understood all too well what it meant.

"But this time, we want to eliminate them." Said Kin, the others agreed.

"Syaoran, I'm sorry about earlier. But there's no other way." Said Kin,

"The Kage want us dead, we only came back to guard the world in case something like this would happen again." Explained Silver,

"There's no other way out . . . its kill or be killed." Muttered Keikoku,

"Sakura, Syaoran, did you learn the song yet?" Asked Marina, they nodded.

"If the Kage has found a way in the cave, I think now is the best time to fight them." Suggested Keikoku,

"Once we step out of the cave they'll find us." Said Kin,

"Do you guys know the highest point in town?" Asked Silver,

"Tokyo tower." Replied Sakura and Syaoran,

"I have a plan." Said Silver, "It's really simple. We just have to follow the prophecy."

"Silver-chan you can't!" Cried Sakura, Silver and the others smiled,

"Kill or be killed?" Replied Keikoku, they all nodded including their wolves, who would also fight to the death if they had to.

"Alright here's the real plan." Silver laughed, everyone listened.

"Sakura-chan and Syaoran you go to the top of Tokyo tower, bring Rain and Raiden. If any Kage attack you on the way, fight back until you reach Tokyo tower. Once you reach it, send one of your spirits back to the cave so we can leave the cave and meet you at Tokyo tower." Explained Silver, she paused and continued, "the rest is self explanatory."

"No, it's not." Replied Kin densely,

"Kin . . . for our last hours please don't act totally dense . . . "

"Well sorry for being so stupid! No really, what happens? We fight and Sakura and Syaoran play the song. Boom! We all die?" Everyone just stared at Kin, and blinked.

"I guess the kid isn't as stupid as Kin." Smirked Kaze,

"I'm forgiven right?" Asked Syaoran, Kin nodded, as the duo ganged up on the wisecracking wolf.

"You know now that I think about it, that's a acompliment on your part. Chocked Kaze,

"I can't believe I'm saying this, but your right for once."

"Syaoran you!" Kin cringed, trying to grab Syaoran.

"They sure are spending their last hours playfully." Said Marina,

"Well we should all have some fun." "It's the best way to die." Whispered Silver, Sakura looked sadly at all of them, Silver looked back at Sakura.

"Sakura-chan, we should all have fun." Smiled Silver, Sakura tried to smile back.

"Sakura, do you know anyone who's died?" asked Keikoku,

"My mother, when I was little." Said Sakura,

"Do you believe in ghosts?" Asked Marina playfully,

"I-I don't know . . . my Nii-san says he could see them, but not anymore." Stuttered Sakura,

"Well think of it this way, though we won't be with you physically we will be spiritually. Like you mother." Said Marina, Sakura looked at Silver and Keikoku. Both of them nodded with a smile. Sakura this time smiled back happily, death didn't mean the end, but the beginning.

The beginning of many, many things.
