Sakura: Sakura-san, decided to take a break, so I will be doing the intro for this chappie. *smiles kawaii like* Okies, now to read out what she told me to...*pulls out peice of paper* To Pink Cherry Blossom Thank you for forgiving me for getting your name wrong...^^;. I am one absent minded person. Umm you're welcome for the dedication of the chappie. I am sorry to say that anymore school scenes will be serious, what with Syaoran being kidnapped and Loup going insane and all...but I'll see what I can do about another funny come the end of this story. ~Sakura-san *puts paper up* Okay, now on to the story.

~Chapter 9: Truth~

Later on, Sakura and Loup were at the apartment where Loup and Syaoran lived. Sakura had taken Mei Ling to her room, after she was sure that Ombre's presence was gone from the unconcious girl.

Sakura had told her father that she was staying at Tomoyo's house. She needed to talk to Loup. He had been so quiet the rest of the day.

"Umm, Loup, if I may ask, what did you do that killed that teacher?" She asked nervously. This is something that she had wonered about strangely. Whatever it had been, it had been bad. She sensed that much.

Loup was acroos the room, sitting on a window sill. They were in the small living room. Moonlight fell across his face, and body. He was wering black again, only this time it was a different outfit. His pants were black jeans, he had a black t-shirt on, only a black coat-type thing, that flared out at the bottom, which was at the back of his knees. He had been looking out the window. He now look at Sakura out of the corner of his eye.

"I destroyed him from the inside," he answered simply, and then began to go into more detail. "Bascially, I took the darkness inside of him, seeing as I can do that for what I am, and used it to eat his insides, and burn his soul. For him, it would have felt like, something worse than fire rushing through your body at an agonizingly slow rate. Even though the process is quick, it feels bad enough that it seems longer. Each of his organs in successon rotted and-"

"STOP!" Sakura hollered. She couldn't take anymore description of what had been done to that teacher. She didn't think that anyone deseerved a fate like that. She wanted to ask why he had done such a thing. She was appalled now. Sakura backed away from him. To think that he could do things like that to people with just a thought. Sakura gave him a look of repulsion, even though she didn't want to.

Loup noticed. Tears began to silently run down his face. Sakura saw them in the moonlight.

"Sakura...I don't want to be that way...but with my aibou gone, I can't stop myself...society today has great influence on darkness. It eats up the souls of everyone, except you. But Sakura, I...I..." Loup stopped and vanished.

"Loup..." she whispered. Loup...what is going on with you and Syaoran?

Loup had teleported to the roof of the apartment. He put his head on his knees.

//Syaoran! Where are you?! Please...answer! Aibou!!//

Loup kept calling out in his mind, but to no effect. He tried to sense Syaoran, but they were too far apart. "Syaoran must not be in this dimension then..." Loup murmured. He knew that his sanity was slipping. Without Syaoran, there to keep him from influences around here...and from his natural nature, Loup knew that he was going to end up going insane. Just like so long ago.

Loup sighed. He even felt like he was falling in love with Sakura. Mabye that was from Syaoran's influence, or mabye because of the fact that Sakura was Fleur reincarnated. So many emotions...too confusing.

"The truth is...I hate this world...I can't stand it. Too many emotions, and problems...I hate everyone who lives in this world. Everyone except Syaoran...and mabye Sakura," Loup murmured to himself.

"I am sorry you feel that way Loup. I really am."

Loup kept his head down. He knew it was Sakura. He recognized the voice and aura. He didn't even need to ask how she got up here. She was the Light in the world after all.

"Well, that is the truth. I always hated this world. But when I woke up inside Syaoran, and met you, and watched everything...I started to like it more. After the time when I tried to destroy it and you two killed me, and began living with Syaoran. I started to actually love this place. Everything was peaceful. At least until I was forcefully reminded of the fact that evil still is here and I am darkness. And the emotions, the hate, the love, the sorrow...too much. That is why I hate it once again. And everyone in this world," Loup sobbed. He was shaking with tears.

Sakura walked over and gently put a hand on Loup's shaking shoulder. "But Loup, this world had so much sweetness too. Yes there is the bad side, but then it is the bad that supports the good. And I don't belive that you hate this world as much as you say. I think that you are just so torn apart by what has happened, that you hate everything right now. That is the truth I belive Loup," Sakura said softly and kindly.

Loup looked up at her with his tear stained face. Sakura still couldn't get over the fact that Loup's face was identical to the one she loved.

"You may be right, Sakura...that might be the case. But I do hate this place. Although I will protecte it for you and Syaoran. I'll try to like it. But first, I need to vent my rage on someone. Such as that b**** Malhueur. And not to mention Malhueur. So lets figure out how to get my aibou back. Before I lose my mind completely to the darkness."

Sakura nodded. She was disturbed, though at the glint in Loup's eyes. She also had felt something in her bristle at the name Ombre. Sakura ignored it and tried to ignore the glint in Loup's eye. "Okay. We should go inside first, so we don't get sick." Sakura feared that her dream was going to come true by the next new moon.

Loup teleported himself and her back inside the apartment. Truth be told Sakrua, Fleur, I might already be insane...
