MARY HAD A LITTLE LAMB IT'S FLEECE WAS BLACK AS CHARCOAL, AND WHEN IT TRIED TO JUMP THE FENCE IT HURT IT'S LITTLE-alright here's chapter twenty whatever

Sakura awakened to the early morning sunlight shining down on her face, lighting up the room around her. She went to adjust her position, but stopped when she felt the shock of pain course through her shoulder and back. She looked down at herself, and took full notice of the bandages wrapped around her arms, shoulder and chest. She also noticed that bandages had been wrapped around her head, covering her right eye.

Looking at her hands, she wondered what had happen to her that had caused her to receive so many injuries. She looked up upon hearing the click of the door opening and closing, seeing Syaoran carrying fresh bandages and a tub of warm water accompanied with a cloth.

Syaoran looked up, eyes widening. "You're awake," he smiled and sat in the chair by her bed, placing the tub of warm water and fresh bandages on the table next to him. "What happened…?" Sakura asked, struggling to sit up properly on her own. He helped her sit in her desired position, "You were shot in the shoulder and you fell from the balcony." He answered, dipping the cloth into the warm water. "Oh yeah…" she remembered falling from the stone balcony after being shot and trying to stable herself, but blacked out just as she fell. Syaoran's gentle hands supported her front while he removed the bandages around her shoulder and cleaned the skin around the wound before wiping the soft piece of material over it. She winced as the cloth brushed over the painful wound, "Sorry, please bear with me for the moment." Syaoran apologised as he wiped it clean.

"How long have I…?" she began.

"You've been unconscious for about a week. Rena was afraid that we'd almost lost you, even though she told me that you wouldn't die."

"Did I miss out on much?"

"Not really; just Sora chasing my brother around in a chicken costume."

"That's Sora for you…" Sakura laughed.

Syaoran removed the bandages from around Sakura's head, enabling her to see out of her right eye. He then proceeded to remove the bandages from her arms, and washing the area. "Aren't you going to replace the bandages around my arms?" Sakura asked. "No need, they'll be fine." Syaoran replied. "How long…will it take for my shoulder to heal?" Sakura asked. "A while, so don't do anything that would slow the process down." Syaoran told her. She stuck her tongue out at him, "I'll try to do everything that will slow it down." She said jokingly. Syaoran shook his head, trying not to laugh at her.

Once he was done, he told her that he was going to go get her something to eat and a warm drink, and also told her to stay put. As she leant back against the soft pillows that had been placed there for her, she wondered how everyone was doing. She wondered what Chii and Fai were up to, if they were well. As if she had summoned them with her mind, Chii and Fai opened the door and walked in, sitting down by her. "Well, don't you look dreadful?" Chii joked. Sakura smiled, happy to see the two. "I was just thinking about you two," Sakura admitted, "how have you been?"

Chii smiled. "Pretty good actually! Tomoyo wants to see you so badly, but she's unable to make it. She sent this with us to give you-here." Chii handed Sakura a box covered with metallic pink wrapping paper, with a card attached to the present.

"Aww, Tomoyo's so sweet. It's too bad she couldn't come." Sakura took the package, opening the card and reading what was inside.

Dear Sakura,

Sorry I was unable to come visit you, work wouldn't let me go and I was so annoyed! Anyway, I heard that you were chronically injured, and I completely freaked out! Get better soon, I'm waiting to see you when you especially when you return to us with the others.

P.S. When I saw these items I thought of you! Couldn't help myself.

Love from Tomoyo.

Sakura smiled, glad that her friend had been thinking about her even while she was away. She removed the wrapping paper and opened the box, revealing a small plush rabbit that had been placed on top of a pink dress.

She pulled the rabbit out of the box, placing it beside her before pulling out the pink dress. The dress itself was full length and sleeveless, with a gold embroidered pattern of cherry blossoms around the bust line. From there, it simply fell to the floor.

"That's pretty," Chii commented, looking at the dress.

"Yeah honey, never mind the dress I'm just wondering about the stuffed rabbit." Fai butted in.

Sakura laughed, "Tomoyo and I have this joke between us about a rabbit from ages ago, and she knows this is my favourite brand of plush toys."

"Makes sense now."

Sakura giggled, placing the items carefully back in their box. "I'm really sorry Sakura, but we have to get going now…" Chii said, standing up.

"Thank you for visiting me, I really enjoyed being able to see you again." Sakura smiled.

Fai kissed her on the forehead in farewell, and left behind his wife, holding the door open for Rena. Rena looked slightly guilty as she sat on the bed with Sakura, her eyes full of sadness and guilt. "Rena…?"

"I'm glad you're alright, Sakura." Rena said. Sakura smiled, "I think everyone's relieved to know that I'm awake."

"They are; you should have seen Sora's face when Syaoran told us you'd woken up."

"I can only imagine what it looked like," Sakura laughed. Rena became silent for a moment, before speaking. "I need to tell you the truth; about me, about everything."

Sakura's face suddenly became very serious. "I thought you and the others were hiding something from me."

Rena nodded, "Yes, I'm sorry I never meant to hurt you-

"I'm sure you did it with good intentions, Rena."

"Even so, it's my fault you were the one shot!" she cried.

Sakura looked confused, "What do you mean?" she asked.

Rena's appearance suddenly changed to her true physical form, shocking Sakura. "Who are you…?" Sakura whispered. Rena opened her eyes, revealing the same emerald eyes as the girl sitting in front of her. "My name is Sakura, just as yours is. In order to tell us apart, our parents gave us two separate names, but similar in spelling and sound. As you already know, I am Rena. The name that was given to you is Reina."

"Our parents? But-

"No, they are not your real parents. When you were younger, we were separated by war. You were taken from us by the Crimson Rose organisation, raised in such a brutal way that hearing this information could cause you to break. However, you met Syaoran, who you formed a strong relationship with, making you a stronger person. They didn't foresee this, and in turn, they sent a group of people around to assassinate anyone related to you by blood, and they mistook you for me."

"I don't understand, what did they want with me?"

"Experimentation. We were born into a family that is higher than a human, but equal to a demon. We are known as the higher angels; the family of angels that oversees all in heaven. We are the royal family commanding the angels who serve us, and you are the next in line to seize the throne."

"Is that why I was the one taken…?"

"Probably…"

"I see…I'm glad you were out of harm's way."

"I'm sorry we couldn't help you any earlier-I searched for you everywhere and when I'd finally found you I was shocked to see everything that had harmed you-your soul was crying out, and it scared me. I went and spoke to our mother, trying to find out what I could do, and was disappointed to find that there wasn't much I could do…my sister who no longer knew who I was needed help, and I was useless!" Tears rolled down Rena's face, falling onto her hands.

"Rena, it's alright. See, I'm alive."

"I know, and I'm just so happy to be able to see you smiling for real…"

"Is Touya my real brother?" Sakura asked quietly.

"He's alive!?"

Trololol. Review?
