Chapter 3- The Disturbing Dream; A Memory.
Sakura shot up in her bed, tears streaming down her cheeks. She began
sobbing and woke Syaoran up. When he saw her crying, he began to worry.
"Sakura, what's wrong?" Sakura didn't respond. She just hugged Syaoran
tightly and continued crying. Syaoran rubbed her back trying to calm her
down while saying "It's okay. Stop crying." Within Minutes she had stopped
crying and slipped into a dreamless sleep.
~.....~
At that same moment Sakura woke crying, Kirin had too. The only
difference was that Kirin was crying harder. Her sobs made it sound as if she
were in pain. Those painful sobs reached Kale's room. He sat up wondering
why Kirin, his strong and "fearless" Kirin, was crying. He got up and walked
to her closed bedroom door. He opened it and looked in. Kirin sat on her
bed, hugging her knees and crying into them. Kale walked over and sat next
to her. He put his hand on her back and rubbed it, trying to calm her painful
sobs. He wanted to ask what was wrong, but he knew she wouldn't answer.

A.N. Warning: Kirin's dream flash back is a little gory...
~.....~
~Dream Flash back~
"Ahahahahahahahah. You pathetic sorceress. You think you can defeat me?
Ha! I've already beaten you, why won't you just give up? It will be less
painful that way. Hahahah!" cackled the evil sorceress. She was tall with
long black hair and a midnight black dress. The dress was tight on her form,
from head to toe. It had long sleeves and a hole in between the collar bones.
The hole surrounded a purple cherry blossom tatoo.
"I would never just give up to a witch like you, Notoya!" a young woman
with long black hair and fiery golden-amber eyes yelled back. Notoya
growled. "Then you and your little boyfriend there will die painfully!"
Notoya screamed and held her hands out. A small black ball began to grow
larger in front of her hands. " Now, Miyuki and Ryo, you both.....will die!"
she yelled before releasing the black ball. Miyuki and Ryo both held their
arms in front of themselves, trying to be protected from the blast. They
closed their eyes as it drew nearer. They were prepared to be hit, but when
nothing happened, they opened their eyes. Their eyes widened at the sight
before them.
Notoya's jaw practically fell to the ground when she saw that they hadn't
been hit. Miyuki and Ryo couldn't believe their eyes. They had been saved
from death by a sword. It had a silver blade with a golden hilt. Miyuki stood
and reached her hand out. She stopped her hand inches away from the
swords hilt and looked back to Ryo, her eyes asking if she should take the
sword. Ryo nodded and she turned back to the sword. Miyuki grabbed the
hilt and expected the sword to fall to the ground from it's weight. When it
didn't fall, she was amazed.
"Where did that sword come from?" yelled Notoya. When no one answered
her question, she screamed. "Fine! Your end will come in a sword fight!"
Notoya cried. Then, out of a black ball in Notoya's hand, a black sword
appeared. Notoya and Miyuki charged foreword, attacking. A few clings of
metal colliding was heard, then a painful scream.
Miyuki stood there, holding the sword firmly in her hands and pushing the
blade deeper and deeper into Notoya's stomach. Notoya screamed in pain
again and again as the sword was thrust all the way through her. A small red
line of blood ran from her mouth.{A.N.- as I said in the first chapter, I'll try
not to make it too gory...} Miyuki pulled the blade out of Notoya easily.
Notoya collapsed on the ground. She covered her stomach with her hand and
then pulled it away. She looked at her blood covered hand and said, "It...It
seems...as if...you...have won...what...a turn...of...event. Haha...Con...
Congratulations...Miyuki...you win..." she then fell limp. Dead.
Miyuki looked at her blade. It was no longer it's beautiful silver. Instead it
was a combination of the crimson red of blood and shiny silver. Miyuki
turned around, lowering the sword, and smiled at Ryo. He smiled back, then
all of a sudden Miyuki's smile faded. She looked down to her stomach and
saw a black blade with the crimson red of her blood on it. Ryo's eyes
widened as he saw Miyuki's sword drop. Miyuki dropped to her knees when
the black sword was removed from her abdomen. She placed a hand to it as
she fell. Then, she removed her hand and looked at it covered in her blood.
She looked back at Ryo, seeing horror in his eyes. He ran and caught her
before she fell to the ground. Miyuki smiled up at him and mouthed 'I love
you' before she fell limp in his arms.
A single tear fell down Ryo's cheek. He placed Miyuki on the ground,
picked up his sword and glared at the one that stole his loves life. The young
woman had jumped back when she removed her sword from Miyuki. She
had waist length black hair and a purple cherry blossom tatoo. "Who are
you?!" Ryo growled. "I'm the daughter of Notoya. You and your girlfriend
killed my mother and now I want revenge!" the young woman hissed. Ryo
lifted his sword, preparing to strike and the young woman did the same with
her crimson covered sword. The two charged at each other, but no clang of
swords was heard. In it's place was a muffled scream. Ryo was gritting his
teeth in pain as the sharp blade of the black sword was driven through him.
The young woman laughed as she pulled her sword from Ryo. His hand
immediately clamped over his abdomen. He dropped his sword as he
collapsed lifelessly on the now blood stained dirt. The young woman
laughed again and disappeared. Clow Reed watched helplessly as the young
sorcerer and sorceress fought and were killed. His face tear stained from the
tears of pain he felt from losing the two family members he loved the most.

A.N.- I thought I said a little gory, oh well. I tried my best!

Sakura and Syaoran walked quietly to their desks' and sat. Tomoyo looked
curious and worried about the two. "Are you guys okay? You look like last
night was the worst night of you're lives! What happened?" she asked. "We
didn't get much sleep last night..." Syaoran answered. "Why not?" came
another question. "Because...I had a horrible dream." Sakura said looking to
her hands. "What kind of dream?" Eriol asked, beating Tomoyo to it. "I want
to talk about it later...at lunch...with Kale and Kirin, also." Sakura answered
him.
Right then, Kirin walked in followed by Kale. They walked to their desks'
and sat. Kirin plopped down in her seat. When she did, her hand shot up to
her abdomen and her face crinkled a little in pain. "Are you okay?" Tomoyo
asked, worried. "I'm fine...I just ran into a corner of the table this morning...
nothing serious." Kirin assured. "Ok...Well, Sakura had a dream last night...
but won't talk about it until lunch." she informed as the bell rang.
~.....~
The six friends sat under the Cherry Tree ,their usual spot. They all looked
at each other, then at Sakura. "Sakura you're not the only one that had a
dream last night, I did too. First tell us your dream....then I will tell mine."
Kirin said. Sakura nodded and began. "Well...It was like I was there,
watching it... A woman, with long black hair, was laughing and looked at a
young man and woman. She was telling them that she was going to kill
them. She was a sorceress...an evil sorceress...she made a black ball of
power in front of her hands and fired it, but..." she was cut off by Kirin. "But
the blast didn't hit the two. Notoya, that evil sorceress, was angry that she
missed...and shocked. Miyuki, the young woman, and Ryo, the young man,
were protected by a sword. A very special sword. Miyuki and Notoya fought
with their swords. Miyuki won, killing Notoya. But, then, Miyuki was
killed...and then Ryo..." tears started to stream down Kirin's cheek. "They
were both killed by Notoya's daughter. Notoya had a mark on her. In
between her caller bones was a small purple cherry blossom tatoo." Kirin
finished. She wiped the tears away and looked back at the others. "How did
you...?" Sakura asked. "It was the same dream I had." she answered.
"That dream...Kirin is it really a dream?" asked Eriol. Kirin looked to the
ground and then back up. She sighed. "Guys there's something you need to
know. It's about Kale and I." Sakura, Syaoran, Tomoyo, and Eriol
nodded.{A.N.- Eriol already knows what she's going to say...} "The dream
that Sakura and I had...It wasn't a dream." Sakura, Syaoran, and Tomoyo
were surprised. "What do you mean? It wasn't a premonition, was it?"
Tomoyo asked. "No. I'm saying that Sakura some how saw a memory from
some ones past life."
"So the dream was some ones past...It actually happened?!?!" Sakura asked.
"Ok. But...who's past life was it?" Tomoyo looked at Kirin. Kirin sighed
again. "Well, actually it was my past life..." "WHAT?!?" Syaoran, Sakura,
and Tomoyo said in unison. "Ummm, well, you see....I'm the reincarnation
of Miyuki...and Kale is the reincarnation of Ryo..." she explained. "But how
and why was Clow Reed in the dream, I mean memory?" Sakura asked. She,
Tomoyo and Syaoran were confused.
"Eriol, care to explain to your ignorant descendant, other reincarnation's
daughter, and friend?" Kirin asked, sounding actually annoyed with them.
"Fine. As you probably already know, Miyuki and Ryo were soul mates."
The three nodded. "Well, they were born on the same day, so they were the
same age and good friends..." The three nodded, again. "Well, Miyuki was
Clow Reed's third daughter..." They nodded, yet again. "And Ryo was Clow
Reed's younger brother." Their eyes widened. "You mean that Miyuki and
Ryo were niece and uncle....and also...Lovers {so to say...}?!?" Tomoyo
asked. Eriol nodded. "Wasn't that illegal? AND disgusting?!" asked Sakura.
"It was over 4,000 years ago, Sakura. Back then it didn't matter. I mean in
the 1800's fourteen year old girls were marrying forty-six year old men,
THAT was disgusting!" Kirin confirmed. "Oh...Hey, Kirin...what was your
reaction to the dream last night?" the dense but loveable Sakura asked. "I
think we had a longer night than you two did. It took a long time for her to
stop crying. I herd her all the way in my room. She woke me up, even..."
"Kale!" Kirin snapped. "Sorry. But you really worried me. Your sobs
sounded so painful, like you had been hurt badly."
"Sakura was crying too, but it just sounded like she was scared of
something..." Syaoran mentioned. "Kirin, why were you crying like that?"
questioned Tomoyo. "Because it hurt. I felt the pain of being stabbed right
through. My stomach didn't hurt this morning because I "hit the corner of
the table". It hurt because of that." Kirin answered. "Anything else we
should know, Kirin?" Tomoyo voiced. "Actually, yes. The girl that killed
us...She's going to our school and is in some of our classes..." "You mean
she could be one of our friends? Or some one we sit by? Or..." "Sakura!
Stop! Calm down, you don't need to stress over it..." "I'm not, Syaoran!"
"Ok. Anyway, do you know who it is yet, Kirin?" he asked. "Not sure, but
we have an idea....Right, Eriol?" Eriol nodded. {A.N.- Eriol doesn't talk
much right now...} "Then, Who?" asked Sakura. "When we're sure we'll tell
you. But 'til then...nothing." Kirin finished. The bell rang confirming that
their lunch break was over.
To Be Continued...
Hey! As I said before, Gomen ni. I just couldn't think of what to write.
BUT...as you all wanted, this chapter IS longer than the first two. Oh, and if
you think you already know who the girl that killed Kirin and Kale, or
Miyuki and Ryo, is PLEASE don't tell. But you can E-mail me what you
think at:- sandrock_1@juno.com . I hope to have Chapter 4 up soon, but if
it's long it will take a while... See Ya!
