Lunar-chan: Well, minna, I'm back with (drum roll) CHAPTER TWO! (Excited
and idiotic clapping) Arigato, arigato. (Bows) I hope I didn't take too
long, but getting a hold of my computer is so hard these days. (Sigh)
Syaoran: Yea, it's real hard. considering you're home alone for a good portion of the day.
Lunar-chan: (Goes to smack him, then calms down and stops herself) I defiantly have to bring duck tape next time. (Sigh)
Sakura: Just ignore him.
Lunar-chan: Yea. but that's kind of hard. (Sighs. Sakura giggles) Oh well. here's Chapter two minna. Enjoy!

Chapter Two: Memories
Disclaimer: I DON'T OWN IT! (Sobs loudly) Will you stop TORTURING me like this?
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Syaoran was standing in front of Sakura's dorm room. He was raising his hand to knock on the door when Sakura flung the door open and stared at him. He blinked in surprise.
"Sakura?"
"What do you want? You've been standing out here for ten minutes."
"How. how'd you know?"
"I can sense your presence, you know."
"Oh yea. well I just came to see if you have any free time."
"To do what?"
"Talk." She sighed.
"You are very stubborn." She said, moving out of the way to let him in.
"So I'm told." He walked in and closed the door behind him. As he sat down in Sakura's desk chair, he scanned the room. "So. where's Kero? By now, the stuffed animal would have attacked me or something." She looked at him with a confused look.
"Kero? Who's that?"
"You know, the little yellow teddy bear with wings?" she still looked confused.
"I have no idea what you're talking about."
"Sakura, where's the book?"
"What book?"
"The Clow Book!"
"The what book?"
"CLOW!" he stood up "Sakura, don't you remember anything about being a Card Captor?"
"Card. Captor?"
"Or being the Card Mistress?"
"Card. Mistress.?" as the words rolled off her tongue, there was a familiarity to them, but she couldn't place any of it. She sat with her head in her hands. The four simple words triggered bits and pieces of memories. Memories about Kero-chan, capturing The Fly, and the battle with Yue, but couldn't put it together.
"Sakura, what's in the locked drawer?"
"Huh?" she looked up.
"The locked drawer. Where's the key?"
"The key." she pulled the chain off her neck. Instead of the Clow Key being on it, a regular brass key was in its place. She walked over to a drawer on her desk and unlocked it. She opened it the find the Clow Book in all its glory. Sakura gasped as Syaoran pulled it out along with the key. He held it up.
"Look familiar?" he opened up the book and pulled out the top card. It was The Windy. She shook her head.
"N. nai." He thrust the Clow Key into her hands.
"Try. Try and remember the spell."
"I. I can't."
"Yes, you can!"
"I. can't. I don't want to." he donned a surprised expression.
"Why don't you want to?"
"I. don't know." he sighed
"Alright. you may not remember it but I do. Repeat after me."
".Hai."
"The Key that hides the forces of stars."
".The key that hides. the forces of stars."
"Show your true shape to me."
"S. show your. true shape. to me." Her eyes widened as the magic circle appeared around her.
"I, Sakura, command you under contract!"
"I. Sakura. command. you under contract."
"RELEASE!"
"Release!" the key stretched out into the wand and hovered out in front of her.
"Sakura, grab it!" she cautiously reached out and grabbed it. As the magic circle faded away, Sakura stared at the wand in her hands. He moved closer to her. "Does this bring back anything at all?" she looked up with wide eyes.
"Syaoran-kun." She said, "I remember some stuff. Everything up until the battle with Yue is there, but its still hazy." Syaoran looked disappointed.
"Well. I guess we can't expect to recover them all at once." She looked down at her watch.
"Oh. I better get going. I have to meet Meino in five minutes."
"Meino? Sakura, don't you realize that he' the one who's done this to you?" she looked up.
"Don't you dare blame him! He has nothing to do with this!" she said angrily.
"I have a right to blame him! It's his fault!"
"You have no proof!" she glared at him "I think you're just jealous!"
"Je. jealous? Me?"
"Yes, you! I think you're just trying to ruin my life!"
"Sakura, I'm just worried about you!" she sighed.
"If you're so worried about me, why haven't I heard from you in nine years?"
"I couldn't! You don't understand what kind of Hell I've been living in these past nine years!"
"Hell? You've been in Hell? If anyone has been in Hell, it's been me!" suddenly, there was a knock at the door. The wand shrank and followed the Clow Book back into the drawer as Sakura opened the door. Meino was standing there.
"Cherry-chan, where have you been? I've been waiting for an half hour."
"Huh? But you said 7:30!"
"Nai. I have 7:00."
"Oh. gomen ne." he smiled.
"It's alright." He stepped closer and gave her a kiss on the cheek. Syaoran felt his blood boil and he stiffened. "Are you ready to go. or did I interrupt something?"
"I'm ready. You didn't interrupt anything. Li-kun was just leaving." She looked over at Syaoran, who turned away.
"Yea." he mumbled, "I was just about to leave. See you later. Kinomoto- chan." he brushed by a wide-eyed Sakura and back to his apartment.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Outside, Syaoran was stopped by Tomoyo.
"Syaoran-kun, what happened?"
"She remembers things a bit up until Final Judgment. That's about it. She just kicked me out for blaming this all on Meino." He sighed, "Why does she have to be so clueless?"
"Isn't that why you love her?" Syaoran smiled.
"Yea. that's why we need to save her."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Lunar-chan: Ok. who's mad at me? (S + S raise their hands) I figured. Well. since they refuse to talk, I'll be brief. Comments, corrections and flames are welcomed with open arms. (Grins) See ya in Chapter Three minna! Peace, love and ANIME! ^.^ JA!
Syaoran: Yea, it's real hard. considering you're home alone for a good portion of the day.

Sakura: Just ignore him.
