~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sakura slept and dream. She saw herself, in her robe, standing in the middle of the park with Yue next to her and Cereberus near her as well. Yue gave her a smile and she smiled back. Off to the side, she saw her brother and Tomoyo collapsed on the ground and that gave her power, strength and pain. In front of her, she saw a shadow so dark that she can't see the faces. There was a woman with butterfly wings, an animal with butterfly wings as well. But the person in the middle held a staff with the shape of the Sun. There was the grid that she made, underneath her and the grid of Clow under the three in the sky. Sakura felt someone wrap their arms around her. Just as she was about to look up, she woke up. Looking at her clock, she saw that it was 6:30am. She got out of bed and was amazed to find herself in the dress she wore under her Robe. Wondering who had taken her robe off, she started to change and have a shower. She felt that she had dirt and things everywhere. She found some scratches as well as some bruises but by then, they were a common occurance for her.
When she got downstairs, she read the roster to see that it was her turn to do breakfast and that her brother would be going to school early with soccer practice. She started to make some pancakes, humming as she did so. She felt that her brother should get some good food before he had to play sport. She smiled at the thought. Even though her brother and herself pretended to be the most annoying people to each other, they loved each other dearly and would do anything for each other. They were brother and sister...even though her brother seems to have what Yukito calls the sister complex. Yukito was right though, her brother did seriously have a problem. He was way to over protective. If he even saw Sakura walkint with Syaoran, he would try to kill him. Perhaps because Syaoran was trying to pick on her the first day he saw her...
Before she could go any further with her thoughts, she heard her brother coming down. She packed his lunch first with all her love in it. She made it specially for him and hoped that he would like it. Even at college, sport and school was always the best things for Touya. She smiled again, oddly happy but tired. She knew the reason for her tiredness, but her happiness, well, it might be from her dream. The sensation of being held in the warm embrace warmed her even in the cold morning. Touya came down and saw his little sister with a dreamy look upon her face. He than went to wander who the dreamy look was for. He assesed his sister again. She was beautiful enough for any man to want. That was part of the problem. He had a hand in chasing many of her hopefuls, she was just a little too innocent and naive to notice the boys all flocking over her for attention. He gave her a rare smile as he went out the door. Sakura soon followed, finished with making her own lunch and something for her father.
On her way to the school, she found that she was near enough for her to see her brother at soccer practice. Going over to the fence, she saw many College girls drooling over her brother and Yukio-san. They were indeed good at what they did. In that 5 minutes of her watching the play, she saw her brother score a goal with the help of Yukio-san. As soon as he did, there was a squeal of a particular girl and her brother complaining. A girl with pink hair had stuck herself to Sakura's brother. She could clearly see Yukito smiling. Laughing, Sakura started to head towards her own school.
When she got there, she found that Syaoran was already there, along with Eriol as they both had cleaning duties in the morning. Sakura smiled at the two and went to her own seat the consider her dream. One things that was a problem with her visions was that they were getting more frequent, happening at any time of the day. Talking to Kero about it revealed that as time goes and for some magicians, as their powers grow, they find new powers in themselves. This surprised Sakura a little. Getting more powers? Growing? Kero had went further to say that since she was so young and her powers so strong already, she would grow into a more powerful and stronger magician than she is now. She had smied and shrugged off with Kero, telling him that it was a fat chance things like that would happen to her. Thinking back to her dream, she found that the girl that was hanging about her brother looked so much like...no, that can't be real. Dismissing the thought, she found that the time had gone past quickly as she had thought things over.
The bell had gone to announce the start of school and all the students were there, Tomoyo said her cheerful hello as did her other friends. Throughout her classes, she was amazed that she can actually pay attention to class even though she was rather tired after her ordeal the night before. She spent her day smiling and thinking. At lunch time, she sat on one of the seats, away from the rest of her group and stuck to finishing her teddy bear. When it was finished, she had to sigh with annoyance. The face of the bear still looked like Kero-chan...frustrated, she put the bear aside and started to write a letter to Kaho as she was asked to when she left. She explained everything that happened. She had the cards with her constantly, with the weird things happening, Sakura wasn't sure she could let her guard down. Just as she was staring at the cards, she saw a figure move not to far away from the cards. Gasping, she put the cards away. "What are you doing Sakura-san?"
Eriol's soft voice rang out to Sakura as she sat and stopped her letter to put it away. "I was just writing a letter to a teacher we used to have last year for English." "Oh, um...may I sit down?" Sakura nodded her confirmation. "She seems really nice. I'm kinda sad that I missed her." Sakura gave him a smile. "So, is this the teddy bear you made?" Before he could take hold of it, she took it and hid it behind her back. "It looks terrible." Blushing crisom colour, Sakura protested against the open hands. "I'm sure it's not too bad since Sakura-san made it with love and care. I promise I won't laugh at it. maybe I can help you improve it." Sakura handed the teddy over, feeling foolish and embarrassed. "It's pretty good. But I think if the ears were a little smaller and a little higher, it would look a lot better. Perhaps we can fix it now." Sakura nodded and handed a pair of scissors over to him.
After about 30 minutes of work, the teddy bear was finished and Sakura was twirling around and around with the bear in her arms. "Thank you so much Eriol-san. How can I repay you?" Her smile was once again alight. "You'll do anything?" "Anything." Sakura was a little surprised when Eriol kneeled down in front of her, took her hand and kissed it. She blushed and Eriol gave her a smile. "I envy the person that will get the precious object you have made for them, Sakura-san." With that he was off, Sakura could do nothing but think about what he had told her and how strange it was for him to do so. Looking at her hands, she blushed again. No one had ever kissed her hand before. Actually, no one has ever kissed her before. Somehow though, the kiss seemed more like a fatherly or a brotherly thing, not something that made her feel like she was about to be swept of her feet into someone's arm for romance. However, another matter rang in her mind. She had finished the Teddy Bear that she had meant for Yukito, but something rang in her mind as it being wrong.
When the final bell had gone to announce the end of the day, Sakura waited patiently for her friend outside the school gate. As Sakura waited for her friend to gather her music from the music room, her thoughts wandered yet again to the Moon Guardian. He had saved her, protected her from the water beams. He had gotten hurt because of her and it seemed that he was the one to catch her when she had fainted. Tomoyo had made her and Syaoran see it a few days before. Yue looked so gentle..."Sakura-chan! Sorry to keep you waiting." Tomoyo greeted her with a cheerful wave. "Hey Tomoyo-chan. Let's go home."
"Where were you at lunch Sakura-chan?" Tomoyo asked as they headed down the road, walking towards the park as they had agreed to do so. "I was at an attempt to finish my Teddy Bear. But it looked so terrible and well, Eriol-san helped me finish it." Tomoyo admired the bear as Sakura went on. "...and then, he went on his knees and kissed my hand!" Sakura looked at her hand and blushed again while Tomoyo just looked at her with a gentle smile on her face. "Well, it might be one of the customs in England, but then, maybe not." She was amused to find Sakura blushing a little more redder than before. "There is something different about him though. I don't know what it is but I have this feeling that I knew him from somewhere before. It's really strange. Also, he's not like the other kids. So grown up!" Tomoyo nodded in agreement. "Yeah, he has the whole air about him that says 'I know everything' and he is such a gentleman! I mean that he is so polite, kind and so sweet!" From the topic of what had happened at lunch, the girls went on to the topic of other boys and then to what Sakura was going to do with her Teddy Bear.
"So, are you going to give that Teddy to someone special or what?" Another blush from the Card Mistress as her friend watched on, amused smile on her lips. "Are you thinking about giving it to Yukito-san?" Sakura's blush deepened. "I think so." Suddenly, Tomoyo grabbed Sakura's hand. "Can you do me a favour?" "Um...what is it Tomoyo-chan?" The light in her friend's eyes worried Sakura. "Can I be there to flim when you give the Bear to Yukito-san? And I have the perfect dress for the occassion." Tomoyo's face lighted up with the thought of seeing her best friend in another of her creations. "Um...Tomoyo-chan, I'm just giving the Teddy to Yukito-san to thank him for being such a wonderful brother like person to me over the years. I do have a crush on him, but I know that it can never be, so it's nothing romantic!" Tomoyo just nodded and layed out about 101 excusses for Sakura to wear the special dress of Tomoyo's making and why she should be there to film the moment. After Tomoyo went through about 10, Sakura gave up.
First, the two headed to Sakura's house to collect some things and for Sakura to get changed into something comfortable, and also for Tomoyo to ring up her bodyguards to pick her up. Sakura left a little note for her family, telling them that she would be going to Tomoyo's house and will be back for dinner. She took Kero-chan with her, so he won't be causing any trouble in the house. With everything done, they found a black car waiting for them outside the house. The leader of the 4 bodyguards got out of the car to open the door for Tomoyo and Sakura. They were quickly driven to Tomoyo's mansion and headed to Tomoyo's room where they completed their homework before they could have fun. It was 5 when everything was done and Tomoyo brought out the simple but elegant dress. It was silvery baby pink with high empire waist, a silver ribbon around, under the chest area, the dress fell to the knees in many folds. The long bell sleeves gave her the freedom and the whole dress was so much like her! The coat was red, the same empire waist with nothing to signify it, with fur around the neck area and the sleeves as well as the around the edges of the coat. When she was fully dressed, Sakura pulled out the card she had written to show Tomoyo.
"What do you think?" Tomoyo frowned. "Is this to Yue-san as well? Because for some reason, it seems to me that the teddy isn't only for Yukito-san." Again a little blush at the mention of Yue was not gone unnoticed by Tomoyo. "Do you think Yukito-san will notice it? Or Yue-san?" Tomoyo saw the need for ressurence in her face and turned to her most motherly voice. "Yukito-san will think that it's nice of you to say such nice things to him. He could also think of it as um...do you remember the time when we had that huge quiz thing of the city? Well, you know how you fell of the cliff and he protected you? Well, he could think that it's that. But Yue-san will definately notice! I mean, I noticed right away, didn't I? And the Angel on the front of the card looks so much like him, and the moon and the fact that you say the other side of Yukito-san. I think Yue-san would definately notice." Sakura's face brightened up then and Tomoyo was rewarded with the special Sakura smile. "Shall we go?" Tomoyo asked as she pulled on her own coat and picking up her bag of batteries and other little things to film Sakura, she handed the nervous girl a matching scarf.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The black car sped off towards their owner's house, leaving Sakura and Tomoyo on the front door of Yukito's house. Sakura sighed as Kero shot out of Tomoyo's bag to wave his hello and compliment her on the dress and the coat. Tomoyo started to roll the video as Sakura opened the huge door to head towards the front door inside. As Sakura tried to prepare herself to ring the bell and also give Tomoyo to find her hiding spot, Yue woke. He sensed Sakura's powers nearby and opened his awareness to see and fell what Yukito was doing. Kero pushed the bell for Sakura and sped off. "Hello, this is the Tsukishiro residence." Yukito's soft voice rang out of the speaker as Sakura fidgeted with the small silver bag in her hands. "Hello Yukito-san! It's Kinomoto Sakura." "Oh, hang on a minute!" Sakura tried to calm herself as she heard the footsteps coming towards the door. The door opened and Yukito looked at Sakura in his black slacks and a simple white shirt. "Hello Sakura-chan!" He greeted her with his smile he seems to reserve just for her. "Would you like to come in?" "No, it's ok. I just came by to give you this." She held out the bag for Yukito as he took it into his hands and opened it to reveal the brown teddy bear. "It's not very well made, but I just wanted you to have it for the reasons written in the card." Sakura blushed a little and looked down at the ground.
Yukito pulled out the card from the bottom of the bag to see a picture of the full moon with an angel flying across the moon. The angel had long white hair and dressed in a white robe. Opening the card, Yukito and Yue read the message Sakura had wanted to deliver to the both of them. "Dear Tsukishiro-san, I wanted to thank you for being a wonderful older brother to me in addition to Touya. Also to your protective side for protecting me. I wanted to thank the both of you for your love and care, also, love you both! From Sakura." Yue's heart warmed as he read the message. Sakura had cared about him! It was different, so strange that Sakura, his Mistress, who he saw as a carefree teenager that would just forget about him, but his Mistress cared about him! "Thank you so much Sakura-chan! I'll tressure this!" Sakura looked up and smiled at not only Yukito but to Yue as well.
As the two, no, three, smiled at each other, Sakura felt the aura of Clow and looked around, at the same time, the bear in Yukito's hands started to glow and grow. Before Sakura could even yell out, the bear was twice the height of the house and ready to step on her. Just as it's paw was about to squash Sakura, Yue was there to swish her away to safety. Sakura hung onto the Moon Guardian's neck and pressed herself against him and let his arm wrap around her. She felt so safe and right in his arms and she allowed herself a small sigh of happiness. "Thank you." Yue whispered in her year and when her head shot up to look at him, he was concentrating on the Bear. Calling upon his powers, he shot his Moon Shards at the Bear. Sakura looked to the direction of the bear as well and when she saw that Yue's attack did nothing to harm the bear, she was surprised. Pain, pain and pain was all Yue could think about as he felt his powers weaken and his wings disappear. He felt himself fall as he covered Sakura's head with his hands and held her tighter against him. He had to protect her. She let out a scream and he felt like a failiure, he couldn't protect his Mistress...
"Sakura! Yue!" Kero's surprised at the bear and Yue's attack was shaken off as Sakura's scream was heard. His mind rushed and he transformed without any further thoughts as he flew and transformed at the same time to place himself below the falling two. He strengthened his back to catch the fall. As the two landed, Yue turned to take thefull impact, or whatever impact there was going to be. He rolled off Cereberus and leaned against his brother. "Sakura, Yue, are you both alright?" "I'm fine but..." Sakura's voice was filled with worry, was she worried about him, her Moon Guardian? Puzzled but finding that he had to reassure the teen in front of him, Yue found the strength to speak. "I'm fine." She didn't seem convinced. In truth, she wasn't convinced. Her worry for Yue made her ask once again, "Are you ok Yue-san?" Yue looked down, he didn't deserve the attention, he had failed. "I'm fine, Mistress." "Sakura. My name is Sakura, Yue-san and are you sure?" Sakura knelt by him, her eyes trying to search his. "I'm fine, Sakura-sama." "I'm glad." Sakura's soft voice and something in it made Yue look up to her face and look in her eyes. Surprise was clear in his eyes, if not his face. Sakura touched his face and got up, determination showing in every aspect of her movements. Yue noticed something and looked upto a building about a few blocks away.
"Yue fell." A woman with butterfly wings commented. "Poor Yue, the Guardian of the moon, falling from the skies!" She laughed and it echoed. "Stop mocking Yue. Sakura is yet weak and Yue can't draw enough power from her." A frown and sharp comment from her Master stoped her laughing. "Sakura could get hurt, careful Master." The puma with butterfly wings commented as the bear struggled to strike the girl down. "I won't hurt her. I can't hurt her Spinel Sun. You know that." There was silence. As the three watched, Sakura pulled out her key.
"Release!" In her anger, she didn't even bother with the incanation. "Cereberus, no matter what happens, I want you to stay here and protect Tomoyo-chan for me. Ok?" Reluctantly, the Sun Guardian noded to his Mistress's will. "Card created by Clow, change and be reborn, under the name for your new Mistress, Sakura. Jump!" The wings appeared on the side of her high heeled shoes. Just as the bear struck down, Sakura was up and away to the top of the roof. "How do I stop this thing?" Sakura asked after the bear started to trash the Tsukishiro residence in it's madness to squash Sakura. She landed upon a telephone pole. "She has to find the source of the power and cut it." Yue suggested, remembering his lessons on magic, taught by Clow Reeds. "Find the source of the power Sakura!" Cereberus nodded in understanding and shouted at his charge. "It's the left ear!" The Card Mistress yelled as she jumped and landed on the roof again. "Cut it!" Cereberus yelled out again and Sakura called out, "sword!" Armed with sword, Sakura jumped up and tried to cut the ear, only to be thrown away with a strike from the bear. "Sakura!"
Sakura jumped away just as the bear was ready to strike her for the last time. From the impact of the bear against the roof, the tiles started to fall on the three on the ground. "Careful!" Cereberus covered them all with his wings and wandered how Sakura could worry about them when her life was in danger. Sakura jumped again and started to tire from her use of the Sakura cards and also from all the jumping around. "Sakura is tiring! Using the Jump Card will not help at all! She has to use Fly." Cereberus suggested as Tomoyo said, "but, if she uses Fly, she can't use sword!" Cereberus sighed, "yes, Fly uses the wand to lift the user into the air." The three all sat on the ground, helpless.
Meanwhile, Sakura held up the Fly card. "Please! I need to use the Sword Card a little longer, use me." With that she chanted, "card created by Clow, change and be reborn, under the name of your new Mistress, Sakura. Fly!" As the fly card turned pink, Sakura felt wind surround her as she felt her coat disappear and wings on her back. The wings lifted her in the air. Yue watched amazed as Sakura emerged from the winds like a new born angel. Her silvery pink dress shone in the half moon as well as her silver chain that hung about her neck. The sword in her hands shone as well, giving off the silver light, just as her wings glowed the same colour. She was an Angel. She hung in the air in her full glory as her wings started beat in rhythm as it lifted her up into the air. Sakura flew towards the left ear, avoiding the strikes and cutting the ear off. Sakur sighed as she watched the bear shrink and return to it's normal size. A small piece of dark paper floated and flying towards it, she caught it. It had the grid of the Clow on it and Sakura wondered why, just as she started to feel weak and tired. Her wings disappeared as she was no longer able to support it with her magic and she fell. For the second time that night, she plunged to the earth.
Eriol watched Sakura fall and panicked. There was no way any of the guardians could help her that time, was there? He looked around and found none. He had to break her fall without showing any signs of doing so. Calling upon his magic, he called on Windy, who had not yet changed to Sakura card and called it to break Sakura's fall. It would just seem like that Windy had felt her Mistress fall and go to her rescue. Eriol was firm to ask Windy card that. He had to be sure that he won't be found yet. Not just yet, he wasn't ready to be discovered by Sakura. Not yet.
Windy swirled out from her card form and rushed to help her Mistress. Gathering all the winds she can, she pooled around the place Sakura would fall. Sakura landed on the winds and was softly lowered to the ground, unconscious. With it's job done, Windy curled back to her card form as Yue and the others rushed to examine Sakura. Yue reached her first, surprisingly. Sakura layed on the ground, still and peaceful. Yue picked her up gently and held her as Cereberus and Tomoyo reached them. "Is she alright?" Yue nodded and recieved sighs from the two others. "How did Windy know to help Sakura?" When no one was able to answer his question, Cereberus sighed and went back to the question in hand. What were they going to do about Sakura? "Um...from experience over the last two times, she'll sleep until the morning. We can't take her home without her brother noticing that his sister just appeared in her room without entering the house." Cereberus put in.
Yue ignored them all. He just sat, content with Sakura on his lap and leaning against one of the many trees in the Tsukishiro residence. She looked so beautiful and peaceful in her sleep. He cuddled her a little closer as she shivered. "I know! We could take her to my house and let her sleep over. Since we have the school stuff at my place and also my mother would love it if her little cousin could sleep over. I could ring Touya-san up and explain it." Cereberus agreed to the plan and getting out a little kit, Tomoyo fixed up the teddy and handed it to Yue. "Sakura wanted both you and Yukito-san to have this." Yue accepted the Teddy, feeling warm inside. Tomoyo then called up her bodyguards to pick them up. Cereberus went back to his own size and Yukito did the same. "What happened to my house?" Yukito looked around puzzled. "Um, there is this huge storm and it was really quick and you and Sakura got hit on the head with some tiles and fainted." Yukito looked puzzled but seemed to accept the explaination. Before he could question the purple haired girl more, the black car had arrived and two ladies dressed in black exited the car and approached their charge.
"What happened Daidouji-sama?" The leader asked the teen as she took a closer look at their charge's best friend. "Oh, she just fainted. She should be alright soon." As the lady picked up the girl, Tomoyo waved her goodbye to Yukito and was out the door. They drove to Dadouji's in comfortable silence. When they arrived, they were fussed over by Sonomi who panicked when she saw Sakura. They brought her into the house and laid her on the bed of the guest room next to Tomoyo's room. Tomoyo than proceeded to ring up Kinomoto's residence. "Hello, this is the Kinomoto residence. It's Touya speaking." Tomoyo sighed inaudibly. She would have prefered to speak to Sakura's father than her overprotective her brother. "Hello, Touya-san. This is Tomoyo. Um...Sakura-chan left a note for you to say that she was coming over the my house, ne?" Pause. "Oh, you read it. That's good. I'm sorry this call is a little late. But Sakura-san fell asleep during her math homework and I think she should sleep over at my place." Pause. "Yes, of course. We'll drop her off in the morning." Another pause. "Oh no, my mother is over joyed that Sakura-chan is staying over." Pause. "Of course, we have finished our homework." Pause. "I'll see you tomorrow than. Thank you. Bye." Tomoyo put the phone down with a sigh. It had been easier than she had thought. She walked back into Sakura's room and see Kero-chan looking over her.
"Bye Tomoyo-san." Touya put the phone down and looked out to the window. Sakura had been in another 'battle'. He had sensed her fear and anger. His magic, though not strong was enough for him to sense and see many things the other people often missed. Sakura had not simply fallen asleep at Tomoyo's house. Something big had happened yet again. His psychic powers allowed him to see ghosts, sense his sister's feelings, block out ghosts and make a psychic shield around someone. Sighing, Touya got up to tell his dad about his sister.

Sakura slept and dream. She saw herself, in her robe, standing in the middle of the park with Yue next to her and Cereberus near her as well. Yue gave her a smile and she smiled back.

Eriol's soft voice rang out to Sakura as she sat and stopped her letter to put it away. "I was just writing a letter to a teacher we used to have last year for English." "Oh, um...may I sit down?" Sakura nodded her confirmation. "She seems really nice. I'm kinda sad that I missed her." Sakura gave him a smile. "So, is this the teddy bear you made?" Before he could take hold of it, she took it and hid it behind her back. "It looks terrible." Blushing crisom colour, Sakura protested against the open hands.

She blushed and Eriol gave her a smile. "I envy the person that will get the precious object you have made for them, Sakura-san." With that he was off, Sakura could do nothing but think about what he had told her and how strange it was for him to do so. Looking at her hands, she blushed again. No one had ever kissed her hand before. Actually, no one has ever kissed her before. Somehow though, the kiss seemed more like a fatherly or a brotherly thing, not something that made her feel like she was about to be swept of her feet into someone's arm for romance. However, another matter rang in her mind. She had finished the Teddy Bear that she had meant for Yukito, but something rang in her mind as it being wrong.
When the final bell had gone to announce the end of the day, Sakura waited patiently for her friend outside the school gate. As Sakura waited for her friend to gather her music from the music room, her thoughts wandered yet again to the Moon Guardian. He had saved her, protected her from the water beams. He had gotten hurt because of her and it seemed that he was the one to catch her when she had fainted. Tomoyo had made her and Syaoran see it a few days before. Yue looked so gentle..."Sakura-chan! Sorry to keep you waiting." Tomoyo greeted her with a cheerful wave. "Hey Tomoyo-chan. Let's go home."
"Where were you at lunch Sakura-chan?" Tomoyo asked as they headed down the road, walking towards the park as they had agreed to do so. "I was at an attempt to finish my Teddy Bear. But it looked so terrible and well, Eriol-san helped me finish it." Tomoyo admired the bear as Sakura went on. "...and then, he went on his knees and kissed my hand!" Sakura looked at her hand and blushed again while Tomoyo just looked at her with a gentle smile on her face. "Well, it might be one of the customs in England, but then, maybe not." She was amused to find Sakura blushing a little more redder than before. "There is something different about him though. I don't know what it is but I have this feeling that I knew him from somewhere before. It's really strange. Also, he's not like the other kids. So grown up!" Tomoyo nodded in agreement. "Yeah, he has the whole air about him that says 'I know everything' and he is such a gentleman! I mean that he is so polite, kind and so sweet!" From the topic of what had happened at lunch, the girls went on to the topic of other boys and then to what Sakura was going to do with her Teddy Bear.
"So, are you going to give that Teddy to someone special or what?" Another blush from the Card Mistress as her friend watched on, amused smile on her lips. "Are you thinking about giving it to Yukito-san?" Sakura's blush deepened. "I think so." Suddenly, Tomoyo grabbed Sakura's hand. "Can you do me a favour?" "Um...what is it Tomoyo-chan?" The light in her friend's eyes worried Sakura. "Can I be there to flim when you give the Bear to Yukito-san? And I have the perfect dress for the occassion." Tomoyo's face lighted up with the thought of seeing her best friend in another of her creations. "Um...Tomoyo-chan, I'm just giving the Teddy to Yukito-san to thank him for being such a wonderful brother like person to me over the years. I do have a crush on him, but I know that it can never be, so it's nothing romantic!" Tomoyo just nodded and layed out about 101 excusses for Sakura to wear the special dress of Tomoyo's making and why she should be there to film the moment. After Tomoyo went through about 10, Sakura gave up.
First, the two headed to Sakura's house to collect some things and for Sakura to get changed into something comfortable, and also for Tomoyo to ring up her bodyguards to pick her up. Sakura left a little note for her family, telling them that she would be going to Tomoyo's house and will be back for dinner. She took Kero-chan with her, so he won't be causing any trouble in the house. With everything done, they found a black car waiting for them outside the house. The leader of the 4 bodyguards got out of the car to open the door for Tomoyo and Sakura. They were quickly driven to Tomoyo's mansion and headed to Tomoyo's room where they completed their homework before they could have fun. It was 5 when everything was done and Tomoyo brought out the simple but elegant dress. It was silvery baby pink with high empire waist, a silver ribbon around, under the chest area, the dress fell to the knees in many folds. The long bell sleeves gave her the freedom and the whole dress was so much like her! The coat was red, the same empire waist with nothing to signify it, with fur around the neck area and the sleeves as well as the around the edges of the coat. When she was fully dressed, Sakura pulled out the card she had written to show Tomoyo.
"What do you think?" Tomoyo frowned. "Is this to Yue-san as well? Because for some reason, it seems to me that the teddy isn't only for Yukito-san." Again a little blush at the mention of Yue was not gone unnoticed by Tomoyo. "Do you think Yukito-san will notice it? Or Yue-san?" Tomoyo saw the need for ressurence in her face and turned to her most motherly voice. "Yukito-san will think that it's nice of you to say such nice things to him. He could also think of it as um...do you remember the time when we had that huge quiz thing of the city? Well, you know how you fell of the cliff and he protected you? Well, he could think that it's that. But Yue-san will definately notice! I mean, I noticed right away, didn't I? And the Angel on the front of the card looks so much like him, and the moon and the fact that you say the other side of Yukito-san. I think Yue-san would definately notice." Sakura's face brightened up then and Tomoyo was rewarded with the special Sakura smile. "Shall we go?" Tomoyo asked as she pulled on her own coat and picking up her bag of batteries and other little things to film Sakura, she handed the nervous girl a matching scarf.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The black car sped off towards their owner's house, leaving Sakura and Tomoyo on the front door of Yukito's house. Sakura sighed as Kero shot out of Tomoyo's bag to wave his hello and compliment her on the dress and the coat. Tomoyo started to roll the video as Sakura opened the huge door to head towards the front door inside. As Sakura tried to prepare herself to ring the bell and also give Tomoyo to find her hiding spot, Yue woke. He sensed Sakura's powers nearby and opened his awareness to see and fell what Yukito was doing. Kero pushed the bell for Sakura and sped off. "Hello, this is the Tsukishiro residence." Yukito's soft voice rang out of the speaker as Sakura fidgeted with the small silver bag in her hands. "Hello Yukito-san! It's Kinomoto Sakura." "Oh, hang on a minute!" Sakura tried to calm herself as she heard the footsteps coming towards the door. The door opened and Yukito looked at Sakura in his black slacks and a simple white shirt. "Hello Sakura-chan!" He greeted her with his smile he seems to reserve just for her. "Would you like to come in?" "No, it's ok. I just came by to give you this." She held out the bag for Yukito as he took it into his hands and opened it to reveal the brown teddy bear. "It's not very well made, but I just wanted you to have it for the reasons written in the card." Sakura blushed a little and looked down at the ground.
Yukito pulled out the card from the bottom of the bag to see a picture of the full moon with an angel flying across the moon. The angel had long white hair and dressed in a white robe. Opening the card, Yukito and Yue read the message Sakura had wanted to deliver to the both of them. "Dear Tsukishiro-san, I wanted to thank you for being a wonderful older brother to me in addition to Touya. Also to your protective side for protecting me. I wanted to thank the both of you for your love and care, also, love you both! From Sakura." Yue's heart warmed as he read the message. Sakura had cared about him! It was different, so strange that Sakura, his Mistress, who he saw as a carefree teenager that would just forget about him, but his Mistress cared about him! "Thank you so much Sakura-chan! I'll tressure this!" Sakura looked up and smiled at not only Yukito but to Yue as well.
As the two, no, three, smiled at each other, Sakura felt the aura of Clow and looked around, at the same time, the bear in Yukito's hands started to glow and grow. Before Sakura could even yell out, the bear was twice the height of the house and ready to step on her. Just as it's paw was about to squash Sakura, Yue was there to swish her away to safety. Sakura hung onto the Moon Guardian's neck and pressed herself against him and let his arm wrap around her. She felt so safe and right in his arms and she allowed herself a small sigh of happiness. "Thank you." Yue whispered in her year and when her head shot up to look at him, he was concentrating on the Bear. Calling upon his powers, he shot his Moon Shards at the Bear. Sakura looked to the direction of the bear as well and when she saw that Yue's attack did nothing to harm the bear, she was surprised. Pain, pain and pain was all Yue could think about as he felt his powers weaken and his wings disappear. He felt himself fall as he covered Sakura's head with his hands and held her tighter against him. He had to protect her. She let out a scream and he felt like a failiure, he couldn't protect his Mistress...
"Sakura! Yue!" Kero's surprised at the bear and Yue's attack was shaken off as Sakura's scream was heard. His mind rushed and he transformed without any further thoughts as he flew and transformed at the same time to place himself below the falling two. He strengthened his back to catch the fall. As the two landed, Yue turned to take thefull impact, or whatever impact there was going to be. He rolled off Cereberus and leaned against his brother. "Sakura, Yue, are you both alright?" "I'm fine but..." Sakura's voice was filled with worry, was she worried about him, her Moon Guardian? Puzzled but finding that he had to reassure the teen in front of him, Yue found the strength to speak. "I'm fine." She didn't seem convinced. In truth, she wasn't convinced. Her worry for Yue made her ask once again, "Are you ok Yue-san?" Yue looked down, he didn't deserve the attention, he had failed. "I'm fine, Mistress." "Sakura. My name is Sakura, Yue-san and are you sure?" Sakura knelt by him, her eyes trying to search his. "I'm fine, Sakura-sama." "I'm glad." Sakura's soft voice and something in it made Yue look up to her face and look in her eyes. Surprise was clear in his eyes, if not his face. Sakura touched his face and got up, determination showing in every aspect of her movements. Yue noticed something and looked upto a building about a few blocks away.
"Yue fell." A woman with butterfly wings commented. "Poor Yue, the Guardian of the moon, falling from the skies!" She laughed and it echoed. "Stop mocking Yue. Sakura is yet weak and Yue can't draw enough power from her." A frown and sharp comment from her Master stoped her laughing. "Sakura could get hurt, careful Master." The puma with butterfly wings commented as the bear struggled to strike the girl down. "I won't hurt her. I can't hurt her Spinel Sun. You know that." There was silence. As the three watched, Sakura pulled out her key.
"Release!" In her anger, she didn't even bother with the incanation. "Cereberus, no matter what happens, I want you to stay here and protect Tomoyo-chan for me. Ok?" Reluctantly, the Sun Guardian noded to his Mistress's will. "Card created by Clow, change and be reborn, under the name for your new Mistress, Sakura. Jump!" The wings appeared on the side of her high heeled shoes. Just as the bear struck down, Sakura was up and away to the top of the roof. "How do I stop this thing?" Sakura asked after the bear started to trash the Tsukishiro residence in it's madness to squash Sakura. She landed upon a telephone pole. "She has to find the source of the power and cut it." Yue suggested, remembering his lessons on magic, taught by Clow Reeds. "Find the source of the power Sakura!" Cereberus nodded in understanding and shouted at his charge. "It's the left ear!" The Card Mistress yelled as she jumped and landed on the roof again. "Cut it!" Cereberus yelled out again and Sakura called out, "sword!" Armed with sword, Sakura jumped up and tried to cut the ear, only to be thrown away with a strike from the bear. "Sakura!"
Sakura jumped away just as the bear was ready to strike her for the last time. From the impact of the bear against the roof, the tiles started to fall on the three on the ground. "Careful!" Cereberus covered them all with his wings and wandered how Sakura could worry about them when her life was in danger. Sakura jumped again and started to tire from her use of the Sakura cards and also from all the jumping around. "Sakura is tiring! Using the Jump Card will not help at all! She has to use Fly." Cereberus suggested as Tomoyo said, "but, if she uses Fly, she can't use sword!" Cereberus sighed, "yes, Fly uses the wand to lift the user into the air." The three all sat on the ground, helpless.
Meanwhile, Sakura held up the Fly card. "Please! I need to use the Sword Card a little longer, use me." With that she chanted, "card created by Clow, change and be reborn, under the name of your new Mistress, Sakura. Fly!" As the fly card turned pink, Sakura felt wind surround her as she felt her coat disappear and wings on her back. The wings lifted her in the air. Yue watched amazed as Sakura emerged from the winds like a new born angel. Her silvery pink dress shone in the half moon as well as her silver chain that hung about her neck. The sword in her hands shone as well, giving off the silver light, just as her wings glowed the same colour. She was an Angel. She hung in the air in her full glory as her wings started beat in rhythm as it lifted her up into the air. Sakura flew towards the left ear, avoiding the strikes and cutting the ear off. Sakur sighed as she watched the bear shrink and return to it's normal size. A small piece of dark paper floated and flying towards it, she caught it. It had the grid of the Clow on it and Sakura wondered why, just as she started to feel weak and tired. Her wings disappeared as she was no longer able to support it with her magic and she fell. For the second time that night, she plunged to the earth.
Eriol watched Sakura fall and panicked. There was no way any of the guardians could help her that time, was there? He looked around and found none. He had to break her fall without showing any signs of doing so. Calling upon his magic, he called on Windy, who had not yet changed to Sakura card and called it to break Sakura's fall. It would just seem like that Windy had felt her Mistress fall and go to her rescue. Eriol was firm to ask Windy card that. He had to be sure that he won't be found yet. Not just yet, he wasn't ready to be discovered by Sakura. Not yet.
Windy swirled out from her card form and rushed to help her Mistress. Gathering all the winds she can, she pooled around the place Sakura would fall. Sakura landed on the winds and was softly lowered to the ground, unconscious. With it's job done, Windy curled back to her card form as Yue and the others rushed to examine Sakura. Yue reached her first, surprisingly. Sakura layed on the ground, still and peaceful. Yue picked her up gently and held her as Cereberus and Tomoyo reached them. "Is she alright?" Yue nodded and recieved sighs from the two others. "How did Windy know to help Sakura?" When no one was able to answer his question, Cereberus sighed and went back to the question in hand. What were they going to do about Sakura? "Um...from experience over the last two times, she'll sleep until the morning. We can't take her home without her brother noticing that his sister just appeared in her room without entering the house." Cereberus put in.
Yue ignored them all. He just sat, content with Sakura on his lap and leaning against one of the many trees in the Tsukishiro residence. She looked so beautiful and peaceful in her sleep. He cuddled her a little closer as she shivered. "I know! We could take her to my house and let her sleep over. Since we have the school stuff at my place and also my mother would love it if her little cousin could sleep over. I could ring Touya-san up and explain it." Cereberus agreed to the plan and getting out a little kit, Tomoyo fixed up the teddy and handed it to Yue. "Sakura wanted both you and Yukito-san to have this." Yue accepted the Teddy, feeling warm inside. Tomoyo then called up her bodyguards to pick them up. Cereberus went back to his own size and Yukito did the same. "What happened to my house?" Yukito looked around puzzled. "Um, there is this huge storm and it was really quick and you and Sakura got hit on the head with some tiles and fainted." Yukito looked puzzled but seemed to accept the explaination. Before he could question the purple haired girl more, the black car had arrived and two ladies dressed in black exited the car and approached their charge.
"What happened Daidouji-sama?" The leader asked the teen as she took a closer look at their charge's best friend. "Oh, she just fainted. She should be alright soon." As the lady picked up the girl, Tomoyo waved her goodbye to Yukito and was out the door. They drove to Dadouji's in comfortable silence. When they arrived, they were fussed over by Sonomi who panicked when she saw Sakura. They brought her into the house and laid her on the bed of the guest room next to Tomoyo's room. Tomoyo than proceeded to ring up Kinomoto's residence. "Hello, this is the Kinomoto residence. It's Touya speaking." Tomoyo sighed inaudibly. She would have prefered to speak to Sakura's father than her overprotective her brother. "Hello, Touya-san. This is Tomoyo. Um...Sakura-chan left a note for you to say that she was coming over the my house, ne?" Pause. "Oh, you read it. That's good. I'm sorry this call is a little late. But Sakura-san fell asleep during her math homework and I think she should sleep over at my place." Pause. "Yes, of course. We'll drop her off in the morning." Another pause. "Oh no, my mother is over joyed that Sakura-chan is staying over." Pause. "Of course, we have finished our homework." Pause. "I'll see you tomorrow than. Thank you. Bye." Tomoyo put the phone down with a sigh. It had been easier than she had thought. She walked back into Sakura's room and see Kero-chan looking over her.
"Bye Tomoyo-san." Touya put the phone down and looked out to the window. Sakura had been in another 'battle'. He had sensed her fear and anger. His magic, though not strong was enough for him to sense and see many things the other people often missed. Sakura had not simply fallen asleep at Tomoyo's house. Something big had happened yet again. His psychic powers allowed him to see ghosts, sense his sister's feelings, block out ghosts and make a psychic shield around someone. Sighing, Touya got up to tell his dad about his sister.
