Time Warp

Part One: Child



AN: Hi! This is another one of my Sakura+Yue fics. Sakura travels back in time to find a five-year-old version of Yue. Will she ever make it home?



Sakura got out of bed to go to school for her first time in a week. She was just getting over the flu. Soon she roller-bladed to catch up to Touya and Yukito on their bikes.

"Guys! Wait up!" She shouted, running out of breath. Suddenly she started to collapse and fall to the ground, but Yuki changed into Yue and caught her just in time. The last thing she heard was Touya shouting that she had pushed herself to hard and she should have stayed home.

When she woke up Yue, Kero and Touya were looking down at her with concern. "Are you okay?" Kero asked.

"Yes." Sakura nodded. Suddenly she felt a magical surge from her backpack that lay next to her. The Time Card shot out of the bag and floated in front of her. It started glowing and suddenly everything and everyone disappeared and she was in a huge void.

"What are you doing time card!?" She shouted. She grasped her key and took it off then looked for the Clow book, but they were in her bag, that was left behind. "oh, this is just peachy!" Sakura said sarcastically.

Soon she was out of the void, but now she was falling from high in the air. "OH MY GOSH!!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed. With a thud she landed on top of someone. Before she could see who it was Sakura passed out.

***

When Sakura awoke she was laying in a large bed with a small child with wings sitting on the floor next to her. The boy stared at her. Sakura knew that she knew who it was, but she couldn't quite tell.

"Oh! You're awake!" He said happily.

Sakura then noticed the boy's eyes. They were a brilliant violet. The same color as Yue's. 'This boy..Could he possibly be Yue's past self?' She asked herself.

"Um, yes I'm awake." Sakura finally stuttered.

"Okay, wait here." He said then rushed out of the room. Sakura heard him shouted outside of the hall. "Clow! Kerobearous!"

Soon he returned with a tiny sized lion (AN:But not the stuffed animal Kero, just young Kerobearous.) and a Clow Reed. Now Sakura was sure the boy was Yue.

"Are you all right?" Clow asked.

"Yes, I'm fine." Sakura replied.

"May I ask your name?" He wondered.

"My name is Sakura." She answered.

"I am Clow Reed and this is Yue and Kerobearous." Clow told her.

"Where do you live?" He asked.

"Um, I uh, I" Sakura mumbled.

"Oh, I see. You may stay here as long as you like." Clow offered.

"Thank-you very much." Sakura nodded.

"Would you like something to eat?" He asked.

"Yes please. I'm very hungry right now." Sakura smiled.

"Yue, Kerobearous, can you please go get Sakura something to eat?" Clow said as he looked down at his two creations.

Sakura's future guardians nodded then walked out and soon came back with a bowl of soup and a glass of juice.

Sakura took them and smiled. "Thank-you."

Clow soon left, back to his work, and Yue and Kerobearous went outside to play, while Sakura sat in bed and rested. She looked out the window and saw Kerobearous and Yue playing tag in mid-air.

'I've never seen Yue like this before." Sakura said to herself. "He's so much happier than when I know him now." She smiled, then dozed off to sleep.

***

The next morning Sakura woke up and decided to join Yue and Kerobearous outside. She had no hope of getting home right now so got out of bed and walked outside. Her eyes took a moment to adjust to the bright sunlight.

Just as her vision came back to her something pounced on her and she fell to the ground. "Kerobearous! Get of her! She still might not feel good!" The young Yue scolded. Kerobearous had been the one who had leaped on her.

He got off and Sakura stood back up. "How are you feeling?" Kerobearous asked.

"Much better!" Sakura said gratefully.

"I told you so!" He said as he stuck his tongue out at Yue. Sakura giggled at this for normally Yue would have clobbered Kero for doing that.

"What are you guys doing out here?" Sakura asked.

"We were just about to play tag again." Yue replied. "Do you want to play?"

"Sure! I'd love to! But no flying because I can't do that!" Sakura laughed. Soon they were running around laughing and having a great time.

***

Days passed and the three of them created a strong bond between each other. They were great friends and watched out for each other.

One night Sakura sat in bed reading before she went to sleep when there was a knock at the door. "Who is it?" She asked.

"It's Yue." A voice said from behind the door.

"Come on in." Sakura called.

The door opened and Yue walked in. "What's wrong?" Sakura asked.

"I'm scared of the dark." Yue mumbled.

'This is great!' Sakura laughed in her mind. 'Yue, was afraid of the dark!'

"Can I sleep in her with you?" He asked.

'Oh boy. This is embarrassing!' Sakura blushed. 'Well it is only his five-year old self.' She reasoned. "Sure." She agreed.

Yue got under the covers next to Sakura. "Can you tell me a story?" He asked.

"Um, sure. Once there was a girl that had a secret. She had magic powers. Only a select few knew of here powers. The girls, best friend knew, and so did a young boy that moved into their town. Soon a new girl that was a friend of the boy found out to and the girl's teacher knew also. Also, her two guardians and friends knew too." Sakura told him her own life story, but by the end Yue was fast asleep.

***

The next morning Sakura was awaken by Yue, violently confining. "Yue!? Are you okay!?" She shouted. Yue wouldn't wake up. Sakura felt his forehead, it was burning up. "Oh my god!" She shouted. She picked up the young Yue and rushed him to Clow Reed's room.

"CLOW! CLOW!" She shouted as she banged on the door. Soon Clow Reed opened the door.

"What is it Sakura?" He asked, until she saw Yue in her arms. "What happened to him?" He asked, more worried now.

"He's sick! Really sick! I think it was my fault because I was a little sick before I came here." Sakura explained.

"Don't panic. Bring him to his bed." Clow told her. Sakura nodded and carried Yue to his bed. Clow Reed chanted a spell and walked away with a smile.

'He's smiling! How can he smile at a time like this!?' Sakura screamed in her mind. Sakura tried to stay calm, and took the young Yue's hand and watched over him. Minutes turned to hours. Hours turned to days, but still Sakura watched over her future guardian.

One afternoon Sakura had finally tried to get to sleep, still holding Yue's hand. As she slept she felt movement on the bed. Sakura opened her eyes and saw that Yue's eyes were opening! "Yue!?" She said concerned. Sakura felt his forehead and it was back to it's normal temp.

"Sakura, what happened?" Yue asked, bewildered.

"You were really sick, and you wouldn't wake up." Sakura explained. She got on her knees and hugged Yue as tight as she could.

"Yue, I see you're awake." A voice said. Sakura turned around to see Clow at the doorway. "Sakura, could I talk to you?" He asked.

"Sure." Sakura agreed. She followed Clow into his study. "Sakura, I need you to tell me the truth. I have welcomed you into my home, but I'm telling you that if you had not been holding Yue's hand he would be dead right now." Clow said as he sat down.

"What!?" Sakura gasped.

"Only magic would keep him alive and I only helped a little, because I suspected that you had magic." He explained.

'Well, I knew this wouldn't last forever.' Sakura thought. "Well, I'm from the future and I have magic powers, and, and, I well I am the future Mistress of the Clow cards." Sakura mumbled.

"What? They are released?" Clow asked.

Sakura nodded. "And I could prove it to you if I just had my key! It's pink with a little star, but I lost it!" Sakura said exasperated.

"Clow? Can I come in?" Kerobearous said from behind the door.

"Come in." Clow said.

Kerobearous came in with Sakura's key in his mouth. He dropped it to the ground. "I found this outside and I thought you might want it." He explained.

"My key!" Sakura shouted and jumped out of her seat. She took her key. "Um, Clow? Could I use your return card?" She asked.

"The what card?" Clow said confused.

"The return card." Sakura told him.

"Uh I've never heard of that card." Clow explained.

"You mean you haven't made the return card yet!?" Sakura screamed.

"Don't worry, I'll make it but it will take me a while." Clow explained.

Sakura sighed and slumped out of the room. "This is just perfect!" She mumbled.

***

A week passed and Clow Reed had finally made the return card. Sakura said good-bye to Kerobearous, Yue and Clow.

She held up the return card and her staff. "Return card! Take me home to my own time! Return!" She shouted. A light flashed and she was back in the void. After the void she fell from the sky again. She landed in a soft pile of grass. Sakura looked around to see where she was. Was she home?



AN: Okay, that's it for the first story in this series. The next story I think will be called, Time Warp: Part Two: Rejection. Should I write it or not?
