Destruction of Time-Chapter 8
Sakura stuttered, "Tomoeda?? But but... Clow-san is chinese. Shouldn't we been in China?"
Syaoran smirked and said sarcastically, "Nice, Sakura. Brought us to the wrong place.... Clow-san died in Tomoeda... but I don't think that he lived here when he was a little boy. What are we going to do now?"
The old beggar was eavsedropping on the conversation and said, "Ohhhh... are you talking about that little boy's whose parents died a while ago? Quite sad, if ya ask me..."
Sakura and Syaoran both walked into the beggars face and said together, "What was that?!?!"
The beggar held up his hands in surrenduring to their curiosity and said, "Ok ok ok! No need to get pushy. The little boy lives in a shabby place near here. I'll take ya to him if ya want!"
Sakura and Syaoran nodded gratefully. Sakura teased to Syaoran, "See? My idea worked perfectly fine... we are going to see Clow-san right?" She stuck out her tongue and Syaoran shook his head sweatdropping at her child-like behavior.
Walking through trashy aisles and alleyways, Sakura, Syaoran, and the beggar went through Tomoeda. Sakura stared in awe at the town, for it had no resemblance to the present time Tomoeda. The houses were made of mud and straw mixed, giving it a sense of being ancient. The roads were made of packed dirt.. not as glamorous as paved streets. Seeing the past Tomoeda, Sakura couldn't see how this could be the town that she had grown up in, in the future.
Finally the old man stopped in front of a broke down building. It was in horrible condition. The walls were crooked and had many cracks running through them. The roof was lopsided and had a few parts that didn't cover the area inside the house. The building looked like a miniature house, one that was long abandoned and was no longer kept for.
Syaoran sighed and said, "Sakura.... this can't be the place. You know it as well as I do."
Sakura shrugged. "We've gotta give it a try at least. I don't know how to get home if this isn't the right place..."
The old man knocked on the door. He said loudly, "Little boy! I have visitors for you!"
From inside the building came a booming voice. "Get away from here, old man. There is nothing that I have to give you!!" the voice said.
Sakura raised her eyebrows. Though the beggar had called the person inside a little boy, the voice sounded like one of a teenagers. Sakura was about to say something when Syaoran shushed her but putting his finger on her lips. Sakura blushed and jumped back. Syaoran looked down at his feet being bashful, but he didn't want their presence to be known quite yet.
The beggar shrugged. "Kids, this is the house. I really can't do much else for ya. I gotta get back to my corner now, get some money so I can eat tonight...." he said tiredly.
Sakura felt sorry for the old man. Wishing the beggar a good day, the man left the two teens in front of the door.
"Why do I have to be quiet?" Sakura whispered to Syaoran.
Syaoran whispered back, "You don't want to say something that you might regret later... and perhaps we should think before we act or jump to conclusions."
Sakura cried out loudly, "HMPH!"
The voice inside said loudly, obviously annoyed, "Old man, are you still there? Go away! You know.... I have things to do, and I don't want to be..." and his voice had died off. Then he said, "Old man?! Is that you at the door?"
Syaoran raised his eyebrows. Sakura glanced cluelessly at the door of the house. Suddenly the door burst open, showing a teenager with a bitter look in his eyes. His glamorous shiny black hair was in a pony tail that went to his shoulders. The clothes that were on him were dirty and old. They were rags, something of which a young homless person would wear.
Syaoran rolled his eyes and said sighing, "This isn't Clow-san..." but his voice got caught in his throat and he was quiet. Syaoran was definite that the boy in front of him was Clow. The aura, richly dark blue was filling his senses.
Sakura was smiling triumphantly. The black haired boy said with a harsh voice, in the same told as they had heard before, "Come in."
Sakura and Syaoran timidly walked in through the door. They were hesitant as to whether they should trust this person.
Sadly, the inside of the house was in as much trashy condition as the outside. There was barely any room, only a small living room and a dirty kitchen. Sakura and Syaoran stood in the middle of the little room uncomfortably.
"Um...." Sakura started.
"Who are you? There is something different about you two.... I sensed it at the door and I sense it now," Clow said straightforwardly.
Syaoran said with a glint in his eyes, "Geez... don't be so pushy! We are guests... a lot of nerve you have..."
Clow glared at him. Syaoran glared back. Sakura sweatdropped and smiled.
"We are... distant relatives that are visiting. We don't mean to intrude," Sakura said kindly.
Clow looked at Sakura carefully. "You two have magic," he said, as if stating a fact.
"Yes," Syaoran said smirking.
Clow nodded to them. Suddenly out of nowhere a tiny stuffed animal popped into the room.
"Master Clow... what are you doing?" it said with a babyish voice.
"Kero-chan?!" Sakura gasped.
The doll was a chibi version of the Kero that Sakura had at home. He had mini wings that carried the small body he had. Even more startling was that his voice was one of a little kids.
"Wah?! Who are you talking to? I'm the almighty Keroberos!" Kero said trying to be macho. His arms were in front of his body and he had a playful grin on his face.
Clow looked at Sakura with even more curiosity then before. "Who are you again? How did you know who this was? No one knows who this is!"
Sakura sweatdropped. She said carefully, "Heh heh heh. I have magic... so, I knew...yeah! Oh, my name is Kinomoto, Sakura! Nice to meet ya!"
Syaoran said, holding back laughs because of what Kero looked like, "I'm Li Syaoran."
Clow nodded and said, "Ok. Hi Kinomoto-san, Li-san... I'm Clow Reed.."
Syaoran said with a monotone, "We know..."
Clow said with obvious distaste for Syaoran, "Since you know magic, I'm sure that I can show you into my house."
Syaoran said, with as much distaste for Clow Reed, "This dump?"
"Like I would show my curse to the outside world..." Clow said sorrowfully.
"Curse?!" Sakura said loudly.
Clow ignored her. "Follow me," he said quietly.
Kero trailed behind Clow Reed pride written over his face because of his master and his 'wonderful looks.'
Syaoran shrugged and they walked a few paces behind Clow Reed.
Coming up to a wall, Syaoran was less than pleased. "Wah??" he questioned.
Suddenly, the floor below them dropped and the three people dropped into the hole below them.....
~*~*~*~*~*~
A/N- There's chapter 8! A little short, sorry. Ok, another cliffhanger... I seem to be doing that in all of my stories... *sighs* sorry, I don't realize it till I'm there...hehe. How was it? Little Kero! The thought sounds so appealing to me.. hehe. Ok... I know that Eriol isn't that bad a guy... so you might be wondering, "What is up w/ Clow's behavior? And Syaoran?" Well, Syaoran's is easy to explain. He has this attutide (that I love him for;) hehe) and that needs to be in the story... he'll lighten up^-^. And Clow, well heck, he just killed his parents... I doubt that calls for a celebration. Where did S+S and Eriol go? That's in the next chapter, hehehehe... Please R&R what ya think. Bad? Good? I really enjoy the feedback! Bye for now! Flowers for my Girl will be updated next, hehe.
