A/N #1: Sakura and Syaoran are 20 in my fic. They both attend Tokyo University and have been a couple since Syaoran came back to Japan 5 years ago. Now they live together in an apartment complex pretty close to the campus.

A/N #2: This is the final chapter to this fic. I would like to thank all of those who have reviewed. I am so glad that I was able to entertain you with my fic. Now, without further a do, the final chapter to "What I Have, You Can't Take."

Disclaimer I do not, nor will I ever own CCS, because Clamp does. So don't sue me, because I am broke.

CHAPTER 9

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Tokyo Park . . .

Sakura's aura flared as her cards stood behind their beloved mistress. Anger flowed through all of them as they see the person that has resulted to their mistress' unhappiness.

Kai at what was happening. He was taken back by Sakura's outburst of power, but once he regained his composure he finally spoke up.

"Hmph. So, you still aren't willing to come, even after how I beat your boyfriend? And I see that you are willing to fight. Well, as much as I don't want to hurt you, my cherry blossom, but I seem to have no other way to persuade you to come with me, so I guess I'll have use force." Kai said, he then shot the same type of magic he used to tie up Sakura.

Kai was smiling as his rope was approaching Sakura. It was about to make contact, then all of sudden, it was neutralized. He looked at Sakura, be was astonished to find that 'Shield' stood in front her mistress, preventing the attack. Though 'Shield' doesn't have a face, it looked like it gotten a bit angrier, as well as the other cards. Another thing, Sakura's aura intensified. It was now brighter and stronger than before.

This really scared Kai. He never expected the cherry blossom to have so much power. Then Kai noticed a little movement from Sakura. He was shaking in his boots.

Now it was Sakura's turn. All Sakura did was lift up her right arm and suddenly, all of her attack cards attacked Kai at once.

First, 'Firey' shot a huge blast of fire at Kai. Then, 'Watery' made a pillar of water and shot it, and sent Kai flying to the nearest tree. Kai winced as he was attempting to get up, after that recent attack. When he finally succeeded, he made eye contact with Sakura. The fire in her emerald eyes, was stronger than ever. Then, Kai saw Sakura lift up her right arm and the last card he wanted her use.

" 'Sword'!" Sakura commanded. In a blink-of-an-eye, 'Sword' came to its mistress' command and granted its power to her.

"You hurt Syaoran. My true love. Those who hurt the ones that I care and love shall not go unpunished." Sakura replied. With that, she charged at Kai.

Kai was too seriously injured to defend himself, which made it easier for Sakura to go for the kill. When Sakura was right in front of Kai, she plunged the sword right into his heart, causing him to scream in pain.

Slowly, Kai collapsed to the ground and turned to dust.

Sakura was relieved that Kai was gone. She then remembered Syaoran and ran to him as fast as she could. When she finally reached him, she first checked his pulse. Syaoran still had a pulse, but it was very faint. Sakura gently shook Syaoran, hoping that he would regain consciousness.

It took a while, but Sakura finally succeeded. Sakura felt a sudden stir and when she looked down, she saw Syaoran's eyes slowly open.

"Syaoran! I am so glad that you're awake." Sakura said, as she was trying not to hug Syaoran too hard.

"Sakura, I don't know how to say this but, I am not sure if going to make it." Syaoran said weakly, which just shocked Sakura to hear him say that,

"Don't say such things. You are going to make it."

"I took a really hard hit at a very close range Sakura. I may look fine on the outside, but my inside it just screwed. Before I go, I just want to say I love y-" Then Syaoran just collapsed.

"Syaoran? Syaoran! Please don't go." Sakura cried, as her cards gathered around her. "Please Syaoran, don't leave me. I love you."

All of Sakura's cards were sad for their mistress. Never in their time being here, have they ever seen their mistress in so much pain, and they couldn't stand it. They all looked at one another and then at their mistress and her love. They all closed their eyes, at least the ones that had eyes, and began to glow.

Sakura buried her face into her hands to realize what the cards were doing.

One by one, small bits of power emerged from the cards and went to Syaoran's body. Sakura stopped crying for a moment and saw what the cards were doing. They were all in a circle, and each and every one of them glowed a bright white. She also noticed that small sparkles were being emitted from the cards and were heading towards Syaoran.

Sakura was too busy watching her cards that she didn't realize that she had one last tear falling from her face. Just then, that last tear fell on the forehead of Syaoran and the glow that surrounded the cards disappeared. Sakura was just confused and was wondering what had just happened until she felt movement beneath her.

Sakura looked down, and was surprised to see what she had found. There, staring right into her emerald, green eyes, was Syaoran, alive and well.

"Syaoran!" Sakura said, as she gave him a big hug. "I thought I lost you."

"Well, I think you should thank your cards for my existence in this world." Syaoran replied. Sakura was shocked at what he said and then looked at her cards. It took her a while to realize what they had done.

"You all gave energy to Syaoran?" Sakura asked. The cards all nodded in response. Sakura was just about to cry for joy. She never realized how much her cards loved her. Sure, she loved every single one of them, but she never noticed the love that they have given her.

"Thank you all." Sakura said. They all just smiled, knowing that their mistress was happy was all that they wanted. Suddenly, the same white light, that appeared after Sakura was free, exploded. And when the brightness faded away, all of the cards changed from the visible form to their card form, and went to their mistress' hand.

'Finally, it's all over.' Sakura thought. Just then, a pair-of-arms was wrapped around her waist.

"Sakura."

"Yes Syaoran."

"Before I took my last breath of air, I realized something."

"What's that?"

Just then, Syaoran reached down into his pocket and took out a small box. He then got down on one knee and opened the box to reveal a gold, cherry blossom, ring. Sakura was just speechless at Syaoran's actions.

"Sakura. Today, my existence in this world almost ended. Before I met you, I thought my life was irrelevant and that death was something I accepted, but now, I realize that my purpose in this world was to meet you. You have given me the type of love that I had never thought I would ever feel. And I thank you for that. Then when I was about to take my last breath, I couldn't bear the thought of leaving you, and then, by a miracle, I was given a second chance. And, I am not going to waste this chance. Well, what I'm trying to ask is, will you marry me?"

Sakura was just speechless. Sure they had been together for a long time, but she never expect this to happen.

"Yes." Sakura said in a whisper.

"W-what did you say?" Syaoran asked, making sure he wasn't hallucinating that she agreed.

"I said 'yes.' I will marry you." Sakura said smiling.

Syaoran couldn't believe what he was hearing. The woman that he loved, has just agreed to marry him. He was so happy that he jumped up and lifted her in the air, causing her to give out a small giggle.

"You know, I love you Sakura Kinomoto." Syaoran said, as he leaned in closer to her lips.

"And I love you Li Syaoran." Sakura said. Then they sealed their engagement with the most passionate kiss.
