Chapter 2

"Really? You mean it Syaoran?"

Christi asked excitedly (SN: doesn't she sound like such a hoe?)

"yeah, I do"

Christi squealed out in pure delight and hugged Syaoran. Syaoran just hugged her back.

After they let go of one another he asked

"How about tomorrow night? It's Saturday and we could go to the movies or something"

"That'd be great!"

Christi then moved closer to him and wrapped one of her hands around his. Syaoran looked at her in surprise. She just smiled at him in return. Syaoran then smiled back and gave her hand a gentle squeeze. They then continued walking down the park.

*Next Morning*

"Up so early?"

Kero asked in amusement as Sakura got ready to go out.

"I'm meeting Syaoran at the park today. He told me he had some exciting news to tell me and I want to tell him that."

She then blushed a light pink.

"ohhhhh.I see, so it's a date!"

"No!"

'I wish'

She thought secretly

"There's just something I need to talk to him about, that's all. Well, I gotta go, bye Kero!"

"Bye! Oh yeah and, good luck on your date with that brat!"

"Kero! I told you, it's not a date! And he's not a brat!!"

and with that Sakura closed the door to her room.

Kero stood in the middle of the room shaking his little head

"It's about time those two realize their love for one another! But that brat better not hurt Sakura cuz if he does he'll-wait a minute, what's that?"

he then closed his eyes in concentration and stood still. After a few minutes he reopened his eyes.

"That's weird.I thought I sensed a powerful source nearby.oh well! Must've been my imagination."

He then went back to his game, which was on hold (SN: *sweatdrop*)

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

*Somewhere deep in the forest a few miles from town*

"That was too close for comfort. Keroberous almost sensed me. I'll have to be more careful now."

A girl with reddish-brown curls said to herself. She was wearing a tight black dress that reached the floor. Around her neck, hung a single round ball held by a delicate silver chain. The ball was a blackish color. She then started to rub the little ball until it shone a magnificent blue color.

"Go, go now and fulfill your purpose"

She commanded. Suddenly a bright light flew out of the ball, into the woods and then finally, into Tomoeda.

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

Sakura walked into the park and saw Syaoran sitting at the bench waiting. She snuck up behind him and covered his eyes.

"guess who?"

she whispered softly into his ear. She was trying really hard to cover up her giggles.

Syaoran felt a shiver run up his spine upon hearing the voice. A wide smile then crept up onto his lips.

"Christi?"

Sakura's smile turned into a frown. She then let go and went around to look at him.

"No, it's me Sakura"

She said as a-matter-of-factly.

"Oh hey, I wasn't expecting you for a while"

"And who _were_ you expecting?"

"what?"

Syaoran asked confused

"I'm sorry, I don't know where that came from.forget what I said"

Somehow, that comment she made had just slipped out of nowhere.

"So what's so exciting that you wanted to tell me about?"

Sakura asked in an attempt to lighten up the subject

"I'll tell you in a minute, but first.what did _you_ want to tell me?"

"no, you go first"

"no, you"

"nuh-uh, you"

"Ladies first"

"Age before beauty"

"Fine alright, I'll go first!"

Syaoran then took a deep breath and he had a hint of pink on his cheeks when remembering yesterday's event.

"You know how I took Christi around town yesterday right?"

"yeah"

For some weird reason, Sakura had a bad feeling about this.almost as if she didn't want to know what Syaoran was about to tell her.

"well, while we were in the park I asked her if."

"AHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!"

Both CardCaptors immediately turned towards the direction they heard the scream come from. They saw people running away from an area of the park. The looks in their faces was one of pure terror. They looked at each other.

"Syaoran, I'm sensing something.something with magic.and it's evil"

"Me too"

They then made their way to the place that seemed to be under attack.

When the reached the area, the place was already deserted, except for a big ugly monster in the center who was putting everything on fire.

"Sakura! Call on watery and turn off the flames"

Syaoran yelled out as he took out his sword.

"Right!"

Sakura then took out her star key and called on one of her cards. She hadn't done this in a very long time. After a few seconds, all the flames had turned off.

"Hey, ugly thing you!"

Syaoran called out challenging the creature.

The monster then stopped on his tracks and turned around to face Syaoran. Syaoran used this opportunity to try to attack it with his sword. The beast then threw him aside as if he was nothing.

'hey! Don't hurt him!! you're after the girl!!'

A voice called out inside the head of the monster.

The green monster then turned to face Sakura, who stood grounded in her tracks not knowing what to do. The creature grinned evilly and made its way towards her. Immediately Syaoran got up from where he was and stood in front of Sakura to protect her. (SN: see, he might not love her.(right now at least) but he's still protecting her)

"Leave her alone"

he growled in a low voice

he then called out one of his water spells, it seemed to do some damage, but not enough to stop the monster. The creature was now very pissed off and flung Syaoran as if he was some sort of doll.

"Syaoran!"

Sakura called out as tears welled up in her eyes, yet Syaoran didn't move an inch.

She then turned to look at the monster with anger in her green eyes.

"How dare you hurt Syaoran! You're gonna pay! Watery, release and dispel!!!"

Watery then came out and enveloped the monster. Slowly but surely, the monster died off and only left a broken little ball. The ball glowed blue for a few seconds, but slowly it died out and became black. It then turned into dust.

"ohmigosh! Syaoran, please be OK"

Sakura thought as she made her way to him. he seemed alright, just unconscious at the moment. She then took a card out of her pocket (SN: for this story, she's made some new cards)

"Teleport Card! Teleport us to Syaoran's apartment, Teleport!"

then they vanished an re-appeared inside his apartment.

With a little help from the power card, Sakura carried Syaoran to his bed and laid him down there. She tended to his cuts and bruises. After a few hours, Syaoran shifted a bit and then opened his eyes.

"Where am I? Sakura?"

he asked as he saw her enter the room

"Syaoran! Thank god you're finally awake!"

She then went and hugged him.

"I was so worried about you"

"it's ok, I'm alright now. What happened to that monster?"

Sakura smiled at him

"Don't worry, I got rid of it"

"really you did?"

Syaoran asked in amazement. Her magical abilities had probably gotten very strong, at some point, stronger then his.

"do you have any idea what it was?"

Sakura asked confused.

"No, not a clue. That was really strange."

"yeah I know. oh well, I'll ask Kero about it later. Now! So.what was it you were gonna tell me before we got interrupted by that monster?"

Sakura asked excitedly

"Oh, that.well, I was gonna tell you that-what time is it?"

"you were gonna tell me what time is it?"

"No, I'm asking you what time is it"

"it's 7:00pm. Why?"

"Crap!"

Syaoran immediately jumped off his bed and started to rummage through his drawers looking for a clean shirt and pants.

"Syaoran! What is up with you?"

Sakura asked confused as she saw him run around his room.

"I have a.with.tonight!"

Sakura blushed a bit when she saw Syaoran with his shirt off. She hadn't heard him cuz he had been taking his shirt off and his voice had been muffled by it. Sakura then cleared her throat

"repeat that again"

"Christi and I are going out tonight at 7:30!"

Sakura now sat at the foot of Syaoran's bed in surprise. She then tried to keep herself from crying.

"That was the surprise I wanted to tell you about.I asked her out and she said yes!"

"Oh really, that was it?"

Sakura said not really trusting in herself. She felt as if she had to get out of there right away.

"so, what was it that you wanted to tell me?"

'what's the use now telling you how I feel'

Sakura thought sadly.

"You know what, now thinking about it, it wasn't really important what I need to tell you.I gotta go, bye Syaoran."

before Syaoran could response, Sakura ran out of the apartment.

"Sakura?"

Syaoran asked in surprise as he stood there rooted to the ground. That was strange. He had never seen her act that way before. He didn't have much time to think about it though, he only had 20 minutes to go and meet up with Christi.

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

Sakura ran, she didn't know where but she ran. When she finally stopped she looked up to see herself standing next to a big mansion. She unconsciously ran to Tomoyo's house. She sniffled a bit and tried to wipe her tear-stained face. She took a deep breath and rang the doorbell.

After a few minutes, Tomoyo came out of her house with Eriol by her side. Tomoyo took one look at Sakura and her smile disappeared. She automatically knew something was wrong with her best friend (SN: it's kinda like a best friend intuition thing. When you and your best friend become really close, you kinda just know. that's something my best friend and I have and it keeps us very close)

"Sakura"

Tomoyo immediately let go of Eriol's hand and ran to her friend and gave her a tight hug.

Sakura burst into tears at that moment

"Tomoyo.he.already.asked her out"

Her tears came flowing down freely again.

Tomoyo then led Sakura inside, and Eriol followed close by, lending a comforting hand for Sakura.

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

*deep into the forest*

"well, well, well, will you look at that.the clow mistress has a weakness!"

the girl in black then gave out a shrill laugh.

"I guess my first experiment was a success, but don't worry clow mistress, there's a lot more from where that came from."

She then rubbed the little ball that hung around her neck until it glowed a bright blue color.

"the love of your life isn't the only thing being taken away from you, but with time, so will be your life itself.and I'll be here to enjoy every minute of it"

she then gave another evil laugh and then teleported herself back to her apartment in Tomoeda.she had to get ready for her date.
