Chapter 4: Dream Talk



Tomoyo sat by Sakura's bedside, her eyes red and puffy from crying. She glanced at the clock and noted to herself that Touya should be coming soon, since Fujitaka wasn't in town, he was the only family member around.

*I should call Li-kun...* Tomoyo reached for her cellphone and started dialing in the numbers. She waited patiently as the phone rung and rung.

"Hello?" Came Syaoran's voice from the other line.

Tomoyo paused a bit, not so sure how to put what she was going to say in words.

"Hello..?" Came Syaoran's voice again.

"Uh...hi Li-kun..." Tomoyo started with a heavy sigh.

Syaoran was silent for a moment, and simply grunted a bit. "What? If it's about Sakura then just drop.."

"It is about her!" Tomoyo interupted. "She's in the hospital for god's sake cause she caught hit by a car."

"WHAT?!" Cried Syaoran. Even though he felt like he hated Sakura, he could still feel like love in his heart. *Sakura...hopsital...god!!*

Tomoyo continued. "If you want, come. I suggest that you come, she's in room 208."

"Ok, bye." Said Syaoran quickly and the dial tone went on.

Tomoyo pressed the off button of her cell phone since she didn't want anymore calls bothering her and she remembered Kero. She quickly dialed and Kero answered.

"What?! I'm in the middle of a game here!" Came a annoyed Kero.

"Kero! This is no time to talk about video games! Sakura has just been hit by a car so I suggest you fly over here at Tomoeda Hospital room 208."

"WHATTT????!"

Tomoyo sighed, "Yes, you heard me. So come quick!"

"Ok Tomoyo! Buh bye!" The phone clicked and went off just as Touya burst into the room.

"Where's my sister??!!!" He screamed.

Tomoyo sweatdropped but pointed to the girl beside her. "Sakura's right here Kinomoto-kun."

Touya pushed a chair over, a worried look on his face. "Oh god, what happened?"

"I told you, a car hit her.." Tomoyo left out the part about the no driver thing. She decided that would just freak out Touya even more.

"DAMN THE DRIVER! WHO'S THE DRIVER?!" Touya demanded.

Tomoyo shrank back a bit. "I actually don't know..."

"Sakura?!" Syaoran came running into the room with a green jacket that was half on and half not.

"What are you doing here gaki?!" Touya glared at him, and Syaoran glared back, causing a odd silence over the room.

Tomoyo frowned and placed her hands on her hips. "You two just break it up! Sakura's in this condition and you two are arguing like little kids! Grow up!" She scolded.

The two stopped glaring and sighed. Syaoran pulled up a chair to be beside Sakura, and took on of her cold hands. Touya eyed him oddly, but let it go.

"It's all my fault..." Syaoran muttered grimly.

Tomoyo patted him on the shoulder, "It's..alright...but you were really mean. You should apologize when Sakura wakes up."

"If she does..." Syaoran said sadly.

"Don't say that Syaoran! She WILL wake up!" Tomoyo cried and spotted a yellow flying thing by the window. She jumped off her chair and started spinning towards the window with one hand on her forehead. "Oh! My head! How painful! The dizziness, oh!" She cried sarcastically and with the other hand she flung the window open. "Fresh air! I must need fresh air!"

Touya eyed her as if she was the oddest person he had ever seen. Syaoran sweatdropped when he noticed that Tomoyo actually letting Kero in with her dizzy head trick. Once Tomoyo got hold of Kero she stuffed him in her pocket.

"All better!" Tomoyo smiled awkwardly and sat down again, Kero slightly peeping out of her pocket. "You know Touya, you should go home and contact your dad or something! Leave Sakura with us and the doctors! Don't worry about it!"

Touya nodded relunctantly and pointed a finger at Syaoran. "BUT if you lay ONE finger, and I said ONE finger, on my sister, then you're gaki pulp! Got that?"

Syaoran sweatdropped but simply nodded so he didn't have to put up with another fight. Touya left the room and closed the door softly behind him.

Kero came flying out of Tomoyo's pocket. "Sakura!" He flew over to Sakura's pillow with concerned beady eyes. "How could she get hit by a car?!"

"Ask Mr. Meanie," Tomoyo rolled her eyes.

Kero flew over to Syaoran and started hitting him with his little paws. "WHY YOU LITTLE CHINESE GAKI!!! It was all your fault wasn't it?! ALL YOUR FAULT!!!!!"

"..Y..Yeah...it was all my fault..." Syaoran said quietly, which caused Kero to stop hitting him.

"What made you think that Sakura was dating that Retosha-kun?" Tomoyo questioned, puzzlement written on her face.

Syaoran sighed and sat back in his chair. "I...I saw them kissing in the soccer field with my own eyes..."

"Are you sure?!" Tomoyo exclaimed. "I mean, Sakura would never ever kiss anyone else but her family and you! Or maybe Kero."

"Yeah...but I saw it! She even talked to me, and that damn Kahzuni talked to me..." Syaoran muttered.

Tomoyo crossed her arms in thought. "Maybe...maybe she was forced!"

"Forced?" Kero and Syaoran both asked with a raised eyebrow.

"What?! I can't think of any other logical reason!" Tomoyo snapped back. "Can you?!"

Kero sighed in defeat. "I guess not....unless!"

"Unless?" Tomoyo and Syaoran asked in unison.

"Unless this deals with magic..." Kero closed his eyes in concentration. "These past few days, I've been sensing a powerful dark aura..."

Syaoran's eyes widened. "You sense it too?!"

Kero nodded, "Maybe..this has something to do with this..."

"Oh! And also, the driver of the car that hit Sakura, actually, there was no driver at all!" Tomoyo exclaimed.

This caused Syaoran's mouth to drop open. "...I know that Kahzuni knows magic. I know it!"

"...So you think Kahzuni is the source of this dark aura?" Kero asked.

"Uh huh. Everytime I'm around him, I sense it the strongest..." Syaoran pointed out.

Tomoyo leaned on one hand, and rubbed her eyes since she was tired. "So do you think the car was magically drove into Sakura?"

"That's possible.." Kero said.

"And after school...I was going to warn Sakura about Kahzuni, but when I found Sakura, there was a masked figure holding her..." Syaoran remembered. "After that he vanished and Sakura seemed to be in a trance...and then she started saying that she was waiting for Kahzuni since they had a date..."

"That's strange...she was going to come home and bake cake for me!" Kero exclaimed.

Tomoyo sat back straight again. "This is so confusing!"

"Well, to put it simply, this Kahzuni guy is behind it all!" Kero said, flying up into the air.

Tomoyo glanced over to the silent Syaoran. "Hey Li-kun? Aren't you going to add anything to this?"

"...L..Look!" Syaoran pointed a finger at Sakura's sleeping form.

Everyone turned to look and gasped. She was glowing a bright pink, and the light surrounded her body. Sakura's expression changed from emotionless to a frown.

"No! HE'S NOT DEAD!" She cried out, with one hand reaching out to the air, her eyes still shut.

"Sakura...wake up!" Syaoran gently shook her, but she continued to cry out.

"HE'S NOT DEAD! HE WON'T DIE IF I CAN STOP IT!" Sakura shouted. "What do you have against us anyways?!"

Everyone stayed silent, listening to Sakura talk in her dream. Kero noticed that her pink aura had a tint of black in it, and his eyes narrowed at that.

"Guys..I don't think this is good..." He mumbled.

Tomoyo look at him questingly, and he recieved the same look from Syaoran.

Kero pointed a shaky finger at the tint of black in her aura. "There's black aura mixed in her pink one...I don't think she's having an ordinary dream...this dream that is happening in her mind, is probably real.."

"What do you mean real?" Tomoyo asked.

"I mean real as in it will come true someday...and I don't think it is a good dream.." Kero said with a frown.

Syaoran frowned with him to. "What is she dreaming about?"

"How are we suppose to know?" Kero snapped. "But she better wake up soon...or we're going to have to wake her up somehow."

"Why are you so urgent in waking her up Kero?" Tomoyo questioned.

Kero's frown grew deeper. "Because I'm afraid she won't wake up."
