Can't Lose You Now

Chapter 3

She opened her door and walked in her room. She sat at her desk and stared out the window completely ignoring Kero who was playing his video game. He mumbled a greeting but wasn't really paying attention. After he died on his game he said hi to him again. She replied in a cold tone. Her feelings from Penguin Park were trickling back to her, but she wasn't sure why. She ended up falling a sleep, and when she opened her eyes again it was morning. She opened her eyed to see that she was cozy in her bed and also that her clock said 6:45. She quickly made her way out of bed and grabbed a school uniform and threw it on in the bathroom. She didn't even have a chance to grab a muffin for breakfast; She strapped on her skates and hurried to school. As she passed by the Penguin Park a weird feeling overwhelmed her but she was already late to school so she kept going.

She made it to school, and went in just barely making it to homeroom on time. She silently sat down being greeted by Tomoyo, and greeting her back with a semi happy tone. Class slowly started and dragged on. But the whole day she kept feeling like someone was telling her to think about and feel the cards. She felt confused by the voice speaking in her mind.

"Mrs. Mizukesu, may I please be excused for a few minutes?"

Her teacher had noticed her change and of coarse allowed her to be excused. She exited class quietly and walked around the school grounds aimlessly. She stopped paying attention to where she was going and found herself again in front of Penguin Park.

"Think of the cards, they need you."

A voice whispered to her.

*MEAN WHILE~

Syaoran was in a heap on the floor with his hands and feet restrained. His eyes were half closed and he was seeing things flashing before him. 'What is she going to do to Sakura? I can sense something strange, confusion, hurt.'

"What have you done to Sakura to cause her to feel so much pain and confusion?"

"So you care for the young mistress? I know you do why deny it? Why pretend otherwise?"

She asked in an amused tone.

"She's struggling to remember her relationship to the cards, It's almost as if someone's helping her giving her little clues as to where within herself to look. But I'm sure it couldn't be you descendent of Clow."

She stated matter-of-factly and harsh.

"Why would I besides I'm here she's not. It's not like we have some sort of connection or anything. It's probably Kero."

She lifts her eyebrow quizzically at his refusal to admit what she already knew. She had to laugh at his stubbornness, he was more correct than he knew.

"So be it?"

He closed his eyes and continued to think of Sakura and what she still should try to do.

"Try to remember the cards they need you."

He thought to himself.

*BACK WITH SAKURA~

She closed her eyes and thought to herself.

"Think of the cards."

She heard once more. She began thinking about the Power Card, which she used to move the Penguin slide, and the Float Card, which she used to so Syaoran and herself wouldn't fall through the 10 feet of snow the snow card piled on. Slowly her relationship with all her cards, the leadership they found in her and her friendship towards the cards came back to her. She slowly remembered how they would always try to protect her.

She pulled out Fly, Float, Power and Windy; she hugged them all to her and apologizing for, ever forgetting how important they are to her. Suddenly all the cards that she carried on her and began to float around her. She blushed slightly then remembered something else. Kero the guardian of the seal, her guardian she cared for him, he was her best friend next to Tomoyo. She took off in a run for home, and once she entered she burst into her room calling for him.

"Kero, Kero!"

*MEANWHILE~

"AHHH!"

The entity screeched in pain, which appropriately earned it, a weird look from Syaoran.

"What's wrong with you? Did Sakura get something else back from you?"

Syaoran asked with a slightly joyful look on his face.

"I know you want me gone, but if I'm gone your Ying-Fa will never be the same especially to you. She's almost whole."

She hissed threateningly.

"She will arrive shortly to face me and try to regain what I have taken. She will come for you."

"How many times do I need to tell you Sakura hates me and she isn't going to risk a hair on her head to come for me. No matter what you do."

He yelled disappointment now drenching his voice. He looked away from the figure in front of him not wanting her to see that he was affected by his own truth, or what he thought was truth.

She gave him a sincere look before it turned into an evil smile.

"She'll be here!"

*BACK WITH SAKURA~

Kero lazily made his way out of his drawer surprised to hear someone calling him; even more surprised to find it was Sakura's voice. He looked cautiously at the girl in the doorway.

"I'm so sorry Kero. I wasn't myself."

A few tears actually started to fall to her cheeks as she apologized. He flew up to her and offered his paw as a truce, and acceptance of her apology.

"yo- you forgive me?"

She asked almost in disbelief.

"Af- after the way… I"

He was nodding his head and she grabbed him and hugged him as tight as she could.

"Sa- k- r- I cn- t- br- t"

Was all that could be heard muffling from a suffocating Guardian of the seal, she let him go and sweat dropped.

"I remembered my special bond with you and the cards. Do you think I've got all my emotion back?"

She questioned in a mildly happy tone.

"I don't know what have you regained?"

"I know love for my family, friends the cards and you."

He grimaced and peaked her curiosity.

"What is it Kero?"

"If you were truly whole once again the entity and erase would be here for you to take care of but nothing. Plus you still don't seem like yourself."

As he was looking at Sakura deep in thought he noticed her eyes, they suddenly changed and went blank and she started walking towards the window. He pulled on her skirt trying to stop her but to no avail. He just held on.

"Key of Clow, power of magic, I surrender the wand the force ignite, Release!"

Sakura spoke commandingly.

"Fly"

She called as her staff slowly grew its large wings and she took off. She flew right over the penguin slide and pulled a card out of her pocket.

"Freeze the moment, Time card release and dispel!"

Everyone froze in that instant, then she put the card back in her pocket and called upon a second one, while pulling from her pocket.

"Create a gateway to the bleak dimension in space. Create Card release and dispel."

The card floated out of her hand then hung in the air suddenly creating a portal that Sakura entered. She steered herself skillfully suddenly she came up to a glowing bright light. There she saw a darkened figure bound in a heap on the ground. Then Sakura finally came out of her trance and instantly was confused.

"Ahh! Kero where are we?"

She stammered out.

"You don't remember? You brought us here."

She was confused but quickly closed her eyes trying to focus. Her energy and power on what had happened, she searched herself and recalled the events that had occurred while she was taken over. She also knew why she was brought there; she opened her eyes and looked around quickly.

"They're testing me. They still have an important part of my feelings, I can feel it, but I can't fell what it is. Kero, where are you?"

She turned to look at Kero but he had vanished. She called out for him but he wasn't answering her.

"What have you done with him?"

A figure approached, it was a ghostly woman's form. She had pale white translucent skin with long pale gray hair, with speckles that looked almost like nothingness. She wore a flowing plain white dress and her face (If that's what you want to call it) was absent of any features. She kept flickering but was still holding strong. She also had one more distinguishing attribute she had a black hole where her heart would have been.

As if on instinct she took the once sealed erase card out of her pocket and looked at it for a moment before it started to change. It was darker than before. But quickly the black encasing the card swirled and returned to the Void entity. And the erase card turned back into the jester.

"Sakura mistress of the cards you have a brave and strong heart that's what enabled you to regain the love you once had within you so quickly"

She paused and looked at her knowingly.

"But you're heart is blinded, you can not continue on if you do not admit your love. The feelings inside of you."

Sakura looked at her with shock written on her expressions.

"I have my family, friends, my guardian, and the cards. Nothings missing!"

Sakura yelled annoyed. Suddenly a figure was dragged into view.

"Kinomoto"

The figure whimpered.

"Syao- Li-kun, What do you want with him?"

She demanded. She looked at his tired and fading features before she took fighting stance.

"Constrict her so that she can't move, Windy Release and dispel."

Gusts of wind tried to confine Void but she walked right through, and kept on towards Sakura.

"Sakura the only thing that can hurt her is you"

She looked at him shocked before she returned her attention to Void.

"Mistress of the cards, although your heart is strong it's still weak."

Sakura shot the card a threatening look, and then took one more look at Syaoran whom was looking at her through half closed eyes.

"If you're saying I need to find love than as I already said I've already discovered it with my family, friends, Kero, and the cards. So why did you capture Xiao-lang, just because he was there?"

In all the excitement of the moment she didn't even notice her name slip, but Syaoran and the card did. Sakura did realize her face was warming up and felt the color rise to her cheeks. She looked around to see Syaoran staring at her.

"Li-kun, are you alright? Did the Void do anything to you?"

Suddenly the invisible restraints on him were released and he sprawled on the ground. She rushed over to him.

"Li-kun are you alright."

She asked with tears for an unknown reason threatening to fall. She hugged him so tight she nearly suffocated him.

"Sa- Kinomoto why are you crying?"

He asked while wiping away her tears. She realized their closeness and backed away. Void was watching all this and laughing slightly. But it went unnoticed by Sakura or Syaoran.

Suddenly flashes came to her. Syaoran was disappearing and her heart was hurting. Then she opened her eyes and noticed a glow emitting from both of them. From him green, her pink.

"Why haven't I noticed it before?"

She quietly asked herself.

"Because you won't accept what we both know as truth, you love him."

Void interrupted her thoughts. Sakura looked at Syaoran who was looking at her strangely. She quickly looked away and blushed.

"No I don't. I- I love Yuki."

She rasped; Void continued to stare at her scrutinizingly.

"Card mistress you yourself know that the one you claim to love most loves another and that those feelings are returned."

She sighed,

"I know, but Li-kun still loves Yukito, even though his feelings will never truly be returned."

She tossed a saddened glance towards Li; he was staring at her intently. She felt nervous under his gaze. She looked away and took a breath before beginning.

"What you're telling me is that I have to confess feelings I'm not sure I have to someone who despises me and disrespects me openly? Is that what your saying, why?"

Void gave an exasperated sigh as her patience was running thin. She soon grew in size and spoke.

"Sakura, I can't be free till you admit your feelings and release me from your uncertainties. And continuing growing strong into the card mistress you were destined to be. Or you die. Releasing the cards from your power and removing your feelings from this earth forever."

Void feeling angered now was thrashing about trying to get a hold of either Card Captor, but Sakura somehow kept managing to elude her. But once she was to slow and Void got Syaoran was so tired all he was able to do was watch. She was squeezing him trying desperately to remove the life from him. She had finally had enough. She held Syaoran 30 feet in the air and was about to drop him, until Sakura stopped her.

"NO! Don't do it."

"Why shouldn't I, you have no attachment to him?"

"He's my friend"

"That's not good enough to spare his life."

"Than take me, Remember taking my life can end your suffering."

She considered this and dropped Syaoran to the ground. Sakura saw this and frantically called upon windy to save him. Swirls of wind blew and he was safely on the ground. As soon as he regained his senses he ran to protect Sakura.

"Why are you protecting me Kinomoto?"

The young Chinese teen yelled.

"Because I ca… re about you" (She whispered.)

She got to her feet quickly and stood between Void and Syaoran.

"STOP!"

She yelled catching both the entity and Syaoran off guard.

"And why should I"

"You Can't Hurt Xiao-lang, I WON'T LET YOU!"

She pauses for a moment looking at the huge entity straight in the eyes.

"I LOVE HIM! And I will not let you hurt him you'll have to kill me first."

Void looked at her unblinking for a long moment. Then a serene look crossed her face. Before she howled in pain and a swirling light broke from her and swirled above her. As Voids body faded the light moved towards Sakura. She radiated her bright pink as the glowing approached her. The light stopped above her before it slowly descended and was drawn into her. She turned to face Syaoran with a full bright smile. She quickly turned back to where Void had started to fade away. But could no longer see anything. She ran to the spot where she had been and found a card on the ground it was completely white. Except it had the word void on the bottom. She picked it up and looked at it for a long moment. Then and hugged it before she put it in her pocket. She was startled back into reality when she felt a hand on her shoulder. She jumped then turned around to see Li-kun's pink face looking at her.

"You have to capture Erase"

She turned around fully to see a figure running around frantically.

"Return to the guise you were meant to be in… Clow card."

Well that's the conclusion to chapter 3. I hope all of you who read it liked it, and will continue to review it and let me know what you think and possible ways I can try to improve upon it.

Also I know her saying to release her staff is most likely wrong, I only know the saying from the manga and for her star wand so if anyone knows could they tell me it would be appreciated.
