Ring. . . Ring. . .
The phone in Syaoran's apartment rang. Syaoran came out of the kitchen with an apron on and an oven mitt.
"Hello?"
"Hello. . . Scythe." said the voice on the other side of the line. It was a menacing and ominous voice.
Syaoran's blood ran cold as his heart thumped. (It can't be . . . please don't let it be . . .) "Sir?"
"Have you finished your mission yet?"
Syaoran's heart sank. He was hoping his boss wouldn't remember. "I . . . uh . . . no, not really . . ."
"Well hurry up and finish it! I want that crystal! I need the immortality potion!" his boss snapped.
"But it might not even produce the immortality potion . . . I mean, it's just a myth!" Syaoran tried to reason, hoping he would never have to see Sakura's lifeless body.
The voice on the other side growled, "Are you questioning my authorities?"
"No! I . . . " Syaoran was a loss for words. He didn't what to say.
"Then hurry up and finish the job!" the voice hissed. "I'm giving you one last chance, Li Syaoran. Don't waste my time!" Then he slammed the phone.
Syaoran just stood there, still holding the phone to his ear. Then he slowly put it down, as if afraid it might explode any second.

"Yako sir?"
"Yes?"
"Would you like me to send out another missioner to take the place of Scythe?"
"No . . . I believe he can do this without help. After all, he is my son . . ."

Ring . . . Ring . . .
Sakura raced down the stairs to answer the phone.
"Moshi, moshi, Kinomoto residence!"
". . ."
"Hello? Is anyone there?"
"Uh. . . hi Sakura." The voice seemed to be nervous.
"Syaoran-kun? Is that you?" Sakura asked, her heart pounding.
"Uh. . . yeah, hey I was wondering, do you want to go to the park with me?" he seemed really nervous.
"Sure, now?" Even though something wasn't right, Sakura still trusted him, enough to go.
"Yeah, I'll meet you in Penguin Park okay?" he seemed almost sad.
"Yeah sure I'll be there. Ja ne!" Sakura hung up the phone and bounded happily upstairs to change.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Syaoran stared at the phone, with dread in his heart. With a heavy sigh, he walked into his room to change.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sakura walked up into the park. There was only a little girl on the swings and-
"Syaoran!" Sakura skipped to him. He turned and faced her with a strange expression. "Syaoran, are you okay?"
"Yeah! I'm fine. . ." Syaoran with false cheeriness. (Well, it's now or never. . .) "Hey Sakura, I want to show you something." He said, pointing to the forest next to the park.
"Really?" Sakura said, without suspecting a thing. "Okay, well, then lets go!"

Syaoran POV
As I led her deeper and deeper into the forest, I was actually leading her deeper and deeper into my trap. My thoughts kept on wandering back to her smiling face, her tantalizing eyes, and those sweet, sweet lips. I shook my head. No, this time I'm not going to back out. I have to get that gem. The sooner I do it, the sooner I get it over with and stop feeling like this. Right? Will I really stop feeling like this? Or will I feel something even worse? Will I feel pain? Pain for what? It's not like I love her. Is it? I'm so confused . . .
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sakura was getting nervous. Syaoran hasn't spoken since they came into the forest. She knew something was wrong.
"Syaoran? Just where are we going?" Sakura was a little scared. Syaoran was acting strangely. Suddenly he stopped as he turned around, she heard something click. Syaoran was holding a retractable double-edged sword, his eyes in the shadow. Sakura gasped. "Syaoran, what are you doing with that sword?" He looked up at her and she saw tear streaks. "What's wrong?" She stepped forward but the sword tip at her neck forced her back. Sakura was terrified.
"Give me your Revitalization Gem now . . . or I'll kill you."
