Quote of the Chapter:
"Just because something doesn't do what you planned it to do doesn't mean it's useless."

-- Chapter 10 - Planning --

Sakura slid the key into the lock and opened the door. The smell of cinnimon and sandalwood
greeted her, but the scent quickly faded into that of cherry blossoms. Not turning on any
lights, she walked through the darkness to the balcony door. Li greeted her warmly at her
feet. Bending down, Sakura picked him up and held him as she opened the door. Li jumped from
her arms to the railing, allowing her to shut the door behind her, closing off the sounds of
Kero rummaging through the kitchen. Sakura sighed heavily, and petted Li's feathersoft fur.
Her eyes lead themselves to the stars, the same ones hanging over Hong Kong.

'What is going on? What exactly is being hidden from me, and why can't I know?' Sakura
thought frustratedly.

"So how exactly are we going to get you to Japan? That's our main problem," Shuli pointed
out the obvious.

"I know how." Syaoran said.

"And that 'how' is?"

"What's the one place that's never guarded?"

"But that's too dangerous, and you know it!"

"They don't know exactly how strong I've become, Shuli. Neither do you. I can make it."
Syaoran said.

Shuli found no doubt in the tone of his voice. Hesitantly, she nodded. "Good luck, Syaoran.
And be careful. Keep in mind that the Water Abyss is the same place our father died."

Syaoran hugged his sister before shooing her from his room. "You can count on it."

Kero glanced out to the balcony, speaking into the phone. "She doesn't know a thing."

"He's planning his escape for tonight. The Water Abyss. You know what to do."

"Yea..." Kero sighed heavily. "If only his escaping would benefit, rather than harm."

"Oh but it does benefit."

"How's that?" Kero glanced at Sakura's form, nervously.

"When they catch him, they'll figure out why. And then they'll bring the reason to them."

Kero breathed in sharply. "Sakura!"

-- End of Chapter 10 - Planning --

Yes it's short... TOO short...., however, I'm STUCK as stuck can get. I know what I want to
happen, but it's the getting there that's getting me. I promise to try harder next chapter.
Please, don't expect it anytime soon, or at least anything too much longer than this. My
inspiration has pretty much died. Later!
