Obsession
By: Sailor Destiny
Author's Notes: Okay my readers, we are getting closer to a point in the story, where you'll be gasping for air because you're so shocked. I promise, this will be WORSE than the ending of Kiss and Flee. *Evil grin*
Disclaimer: I own nothing that has to do with Cardcpator Sakura. All of the character used in this story belongs to CLAMP. Except Kain!! HE'S MINE! M-I-N-E! That's the one thing that belongs to ME! DON'T TOUCH HIM!
Enuff with my babble! Onward readers!
**************************************** Li awoke feeling confident and strong. He knew that this was the day that he would get Sakura back. Not one ounce of his power was shrouded in doubt, and it felt great.
"So you're finally awake kid." Li jumped slightly. "Oh sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. Shouldn't you get going Li?"
"Wouldn't it be best to wait until nightfall?" Li asked.
"No!" Kero shot back.
"I guess you're right. I'll get dressed." Kero left Li to attend to his business. Just as Kero closed the door, Li took out a picture of Sakura that he had secretly kept with him for years. His heart swelled up at the sight of her smiling up at him.
"I won't let him hurt you anymore Sakura. I may have failed before, but today is different. I'm stronger. I'll be stronger for you." A tear splashed off the picture as Li thought of the sight of Kain raping Sakura. He kept hearing her scream, over and over again. Li felt like his heart broke every time he heard her scream. Li was just in the middle of tracing her face when he heard Kero's angry yell.
"Listen kid! You don't have time to be horsing around!! Get down here!!" Li snapped out of his daze and began to dress himself. He was just about to grab his sword, when he thought better of it.
*The weapon doesn't make the man. * Li left Tori's old room and went downstairs to meet Kero. Once he got to the base of the steps, Kero was already in his face.
"It about time!! Did you eat? Go eat something. Are you well rested? Maybe you should sleep another hour. Did you-hey! Where's your sword?!"
"I don't need it."
"That nonsense Li. Go get it!"
"The weapon doesn't make the man."
"True, but take it anyway."
"I don't want to."
"Listen! I did not ask you if you wanted to. Now if you don't go get that sword, I will transform and crispify you!" Without second thought, Li flew back upstairs. Even Li knew that Kero in his true form was no one to mess with. Li latched his sword onto his back, and headed back downstairs.
"I got the stupid sword."
"Good. Now go eat."
"What?!"
"I said, go eat."
"Listen, I'm trying to save Sakura from a evil man who wants to take over the world, and you are telling me to waste my time by eating something?"
"Yup. Now hop to it."
"I am not wast-" Li stopped short when he saw Kero lean back. Kero pushed back his wings, and closed his eyes. Li flew into the kitchen before he realized that Kero had no intention of transforming. He was just stretching.
"Well it worked, so I'm not complaining."
One bowl of Honey Nut Bunches of Oats, and two cups of orange juice later, Li was fully energized and ready to go.
"Alright kid, let's go!" Kero was about to take off when Li grabbed his tail. "OUCH!!!"
"YOU, are not going anywhere."
"What?! How dare you tell me what to do!"
"Look, I'm doing this on my own. Just back off." Kero was about to protest when he saw the pleading look in Li's eyes.
"Fine. Just be careful. One life is enough, but two is better." Li headed for the door, and for the first time ever, smiled at Kero as he left.
"Good luck kid." *********************Dark Realm************************************** "Kain. It's not that big a deal."
"I have received no signal from my lord. I should've felt him by now! We must keep going until I feel his presence."
"But Kain, I'm tired." Kain's eyes flared. He marched over to Sakura, who was sitting on the bed, and backhanded her. He had hit her so hard, that her neck snapped back, and she fell off the bed.
"Did that wake you up?" he growled. Sakura looked at Kain with tears in her eyes. "Don't ever question my orders." Just then, the castle shook lightly. "It seems Li has come. Let's go defeat him together."
"I do not want to go. He makes me feel funny."
"You will come anyway." Kain grabbed Sakura's wrist and pulled her to her feet. As Kain dragged Sakura towards the portal, she trembled. "Why are you shaking?"
"I-it's nothing." Sakura was shaking because she was scared that Kain might hit her again. That was all he ever did, even when she said something to try and help him. Kain never told her who Gazallath was, he just rambled on and on about. Then, we he said he didn't feel his master's presence, they would make love again. In the early morning alone, Kain had made love to her five times. Each time he got more aggressive and began to abuse her. Bruises were slightly visible on Sakura's face and arms.
Secondly, ever since her encounter with the boy who calls himself Li, she had been getting strange flashes. After Kain and her had made love, the flashes got weaker, but eventually came back within an hour. These flashes were of her talking, laughing, and having fun times with Li, and a strange girl with long black hair. Sakura had no idea who that girl was, but she just cared about Li. Most frequently, she would see flashes of her on a park bench in the rain, kissing Li. When they both heard lightning, the flash ended.
"Sakura? Sakura? SAKURA!" Kain shook her piously.
"Y-yes?" Kain looked aggravated.
"It is time to jump through the portal."
"Okay." she nervously said. Sakura bent her knees and jumped out the portal, hand in hand with Kain. **************************Earth***********************
*Here they come...* Li thought. Kain and Sakura quickly fell out of the sky. Once landed, Kain summoned The Sword, without stopping for chatting.
"Ready?" he simply said.
"More than you'll ever know..." Kain called upon The Fiery and surrounded The Sword in flames. *This ought a heat 'em up....* Kain deviously thought. With a power leap, Kain took into the sky.
"What are you doing?!" Li shrilled.
"You'll see..." Kain pulled the sword behind his back, then quickly pushed it forward towards Li. Sure enough, it wasn't the sword that came lunging at Li.
It was the flame.
Li smirked much like a well-known saiyan prince (An: If you don't know who that is, I'll kill you myself!), and raised his hands to block the flames.
"FREEZE!!!" Freezing winds emerged from Li's hands and the flames turned to harmless balls of ice. "How do you like that?" Li remarked.
Kain grimaced. "Not bad...but I bet your not ready for this!" (An: Too much 08th MS Team....) The evil warrior held his fingers together so they formed a triangle. "It's been too long since something so radical occurred.....that it shook the foundation of this city."
Li instantly understood what he said. His amber eyes widened in a terrible fright. *What to do? What to do?* he pondered nervously.
"Let's get ready to RUMBLLLLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!" Kain yelled. A stream of solid earth came closing in on Li.
*Got it!* "DASH!" Li yelled. He sprinted to the right and took a small leap in the air. "Element...WATER! Come to my aid!" Li yelled just as he struck the ground. The ground began to shake as Li's stream of rushing water moved underground. Li lifted his hands up and to the left as his desired point.
A stream somewhat like a geyser ripped through the earth and took Kain's attack head on. Soon enough, the violent stream of earth had been reduced to a pile of sedimentary rocks.
"I think I rumble pretty well thank-you." Kain growled in extreme frustration.
"I've had ENOUGH! It's time to end this."
"Yeah. I'm getting bored." Li summoned the element of fire and surrounded his sword in flames much like Kain had.
"Copycat."
"The only difference is that I will defeat you with this sword."
"We'l-" Kain stopped short as the energy he had been seeking to awaken beckoned him. "Finally..." Kain whispered. "FINALLY!"
"What are you babbling about?!" Li shouted, enraged.
Kain laughed his high pitch, ice-cold laugh. "It doesn't even matter if I am defeated now. My lord will emerge and destroy you ALL!!" Kain laughed once more. "This is the beginning of the end!"
"I can't bear to hear this mindless babbling anymore." Li quietly said.
"Don't worry. I'll put you out of your misery."
"Is that so?" Li mockingly said. An idea hit him and he smirked inwardly.
"Good-bye Li. It's been fun." Kain charged at Li with a bolt of lightning in his hand.
*Here it goes!* with a grunt of pre-empted victory, Li threw his sword as hard as he could into the air. "TIME!" he yelled.
"Hmm. Are you giving up?"
"Yes. I've realized I can't defeat you..."
"It's about time. Speaking of, why did you freeze time? To savor your last moments?"
"You guessed it." Kain made the bolt sword dissipate and he rubbed his chin in thought.
"The only thing left to decide now is....shall I grant you a quick end? Or make it painfully slow?"
"I think you misunderstood me Kain. The only one who is going to die here is you..."
"What?" Kain growled.
"UNFREEZE! Look behind you." Li beckoned. Kain turned around just in time to be struck in the heart by a burning sword. "Ha. I win." Li said. Kain fell to the ground due to his lack of energy.
"I've been defeated. No matter." Kain glanced at Sakura. "Just remember Sakura. If he dies, so do you. You are one. And I wouldn't want that to happen. Just know that I did love you." Kain spat up some blood. "I guess this is our good-bye love."
All this time, Sakura had stood unmoving and silent. Her only response to Kain's farewell was the releasing of a single tear.
"Before you die, I will grant you the honor of answering my one question. Who is Gazallath?"
"He is...my master. Long ago, the one called Clow Reed defeated him, as well as me. But he will live again....and even....you can't stop him....fool. You could barely....gain Sakura back. You may have...defeated me....but you are still....a....weakling."
A feeling of disgust took the place of the anger that rested in Li's heart. "That's enough!" Li concentrated his powers on expanding the flames outward. He did so until Kain's body was entirely consumed. Kain screamed in undeniable agony until the flames reduced him to a pile of smoldering ash.
*Wait! What about the cards?* Li asked himself. But the still smoldering pile of ash answered his question. A small golden light, in the shape of a small pearl emerged. It gracefully flew over to Li and rested in his palms. The light was warm, and welcoming. It made Li tingle from head to toe. A small portion of the bead exited, and took shelter on Sakura's forehead. She gasped at first, but then her eyes drooped and she began to glow from head to toe.
"Sakura!"
"Do not disturb her." An airy voice said. "I choose you...."
"What?"
"You have proven you strength. You are worthy. I choose you....." Li asked 'what' again, but he found out what the voice meant when the pearl transformed into the remaining cards. The cards responded to his presence, and pulsed with their own powers.
"I don't believe it. I'm the new master...." Li said in awe.
"LI!" A familiar voice yelled happily.
"Sakura?" Before Li had a chance to respond, Sakura threw herself into his arms.
"I'm so glad we're back together." she sobbed.
"Me too." Li whispered, stroking her hair. The couple remained like that for a time. Just enjoying each other's company. "I'd really hate to interrupt this moment, but I think it's time you forgot about all of this. I'm using the Erase to make you forget everything."
"NO! YOU CAN'T!"
"Why not?"
"Because then I'd be pregnant, and I wouldn't know why."
"WH-HAT?!" Li started at Sakura, unblinking for a few minutes. Out of the blue, he began to laugh like a madman.
"Just what is so funny?" Sakura demanded.
"You...said....you....were....preg-ahh." Li said. Just before he.......
