Chapter 6: What's Wrong?!?!?!?!

------------------------- (Tomoyo's POV)-------------------------

"What's taking them so long?!" I heard a frustrated Eriol ask as he moved back and forth. His hand cupping his chin, thinking and thinking. He stopped for a while and then continued. And here I did nothing. Just sitting on the chair blushing at full speed. (It's a good thing he didn't notice...) He finally sat besides me (which actually made me boil red!) and took a deep long sigh. "What's the matter?" I asked feeling kind-of-dumb. "I just can't figure out where that strong energy came from. If it came from the time, or maybe just from the same power I hold, which is ridiculous because....(My mind is blank @_@).....and that's why I'm worried." "Oh" I said grabbing roughly the edge of my skirt and looking at it. I took a glance at him, but when we made eye contact, we both turned away. There was just plain silence after then. The clock ticking, as time passed.

Tick...Tock....Tick.....Tock.......

"Do you think something wrong happened to Syaoran?" I finally got the courage to ask. "I don't know" he said staring at the ground. "Its really weird. I can't sense him right now" he grabbed his forehead. Again silence.....

Tick......Tock......Tick.....Tock.....  A wise man disguised under a boy. It seemed ridiculous. Actually impossible. And there I see him. A boy who has more than knowledge. It would be impossible to fall in love with an ordinary girl like me.... I just wish, he would be normal once in a lifetime.....

I suddenly yawned. My first thing I actually did in the whole day. It had been two hours. Two whole hours since I hadn't moved from here. "Are you tired?" I suddenly heard him say. "Kind.. of" I stammered. (Finally, making progress...) "Ummm.... what did you do today?" he asked. Both of us staring at the clock that was in front of us. "I helped my mom in her industry" I answered. "What did you do?" I now asked. "Nothing, just did homework I guess" he answered. (Wow, a real life conversation!!!) We both sighed. I yawned again. "So I guess being with your mom is a lot of hard work" he added. "I guess" I finished taking another. "You should sleep" he suggested. "I can't, I have to stay up for Sakura I'm sure she needs my support right now" I said gaining up enthusiasm. "Besides, if I go Ill probably fall asleep on my way and I don't want that" I could feel that he was staring at me now.

------------------------- (Syaoran's POV)-------------------------

(What's happening?!) (Are my eyes still closed?!?!) No they aren't. What is that I am...

"I'm sorry young man, but it appears that you are blind" the nurse said as she patted my arm. "You should be out there young lady, I believe that your time is way too much. You have to rest, so I suggest you to stay the night here" I sensed that the nurse went to the door. And I also felt a trembling hand grabbing mine. (How did she take it?) (Is she afraid of me?) (Why?!!!) I finally loosened my grip and we both stopped holding. I felt footsteps and heard the door close. Nothing but pure darkness. Nothing but the solemn silence that was all around me. I could no longer see, that was a fact. And maybe even forever. I just slowly leaned back until I finally touched the soft pillow and closed my eyes. (Did I really close them?) (Am I still staring at the room?) I suddenly lost conscience.

------------------------- (Sakura's POV)-------------------------

I was already out of the room. (Syaoran, what has that boy done to you?!) It was frightening to look at his eyes. They were shallow. No life in them. His fire and intensity had vanished. Now I was staring at two amber depths. (How are you taking it?) I only know that the best thing to do is to support him. To give him all the attention and care he needs. And especially all the love that I can give. I was deciding on what to do until I reached my friends. They were both sitting together staring at the same clock. When Tomoyo saw me she stood up quickly. Eriol did the same as he sensed me. They were both blushing.

"Sakura, are you okay?" I heard her say for my eyes were covered with my hands. Hands that were dirty with tears from weeping. She grabbed my shoulder and made me sit down. Eriol went to my side and asked me. "Is it alright if I make you some questions?" he was looking at me in a if-you-aren't-feeling-like-it-don't-bother-doing-it. I nodded. He seemed rather pleased. I smiled. A little one. I always liked pleasing people and making them feel happy, even though I wasn't. He stared at me and sat at the other side. Opposite from Tomoyo's.

------------------------- (Eriol's POV)-------------------------

I stared at her wide eyed. I had to know him. There was something that just didn't match as I made and asked her questions. Every time she answered it became more confusing. It was like looking for a rabbit in a deep rabbit hole. It goes deeper and never reaches an end. Almost never. I listened to every detail, every single word she spoke. "What were the words?" I asked. She looked at the ceiling trying to remember. "I don't know" she answered. I took a sigh. "What's wrong?" Tomoyo asked. I gulped. Just hearing her voice made my heart tingle. "I have no idea of who or what we are up against" I said adding a hint of mystery. "What's even worse, is that I don't think there is a spell to break his sight problem" I stated making the environment worse. Tomoyo gasped. "He is blind?" she asked. I had forgotten that she didn't knew about it. (.; oops! Stupid Eriol!)    

------------------------- (Sakura's POV)-------------------------

I giggled in the inside as I looked at the hurt expression on Eriol. He was just as shy as Tomoyo. It's too obvious!! (Please!! ^^) At least my day was brightened. I really had great friends even if they didn't notice it. The thought of Syaoran now came into my mind. (What will happen?) (How will he react?) I just sighed. I mean Syaoran has a really strong character. (And really!) My guess, is that either he wont admit it, or he will live with some kind of dishonor which is really bad for him. I just hope that he doesn't bottle it inside him. And I hope that he trusts me as a friend and a girlfriend who loves him and a lot.

After a minute we all decided to go back to our homes. It was getting late and my dad (not to mention Touya) would freak out. I was out in the park now. Trying to gain speed as the wind made the rustle of the leaves. I hated the night. I was freaked out by it. (Reason = Touya  ¬.¬) I heard a sound coming from behind me. The sound of breathing. A low and  hot one. I also heard footsteps getting closer each time. I went even faster as the sound was increasing. (Is it really the wind?) (okay, this is really freaking me out) Faster and faster, but the more faster I went ,the  more the sound increased. (I could really used someone's help here!!! ) (Help!!!!!!) I was almost reaching the park. (Yay!!!) But someone grabbed my shoulder. "AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH" (ahhhhhhhhhh!!!) "Shhh.. Don't worry it's me" I heard a voice.

I couldn't recognize it. (Don't worry, eh?!) "Who are you?!" I asked still not looking at him. I could only see a form of a boy. A tall one. "Tell me who are you!!!! " I moved a little farther so I could get off his hand.   "Hey, wait...." I dodged another grip and continued to run. To run for my dear life.

------------------------- (My POV!)------------------------

Night rules in the isolated hospital of Tomoeda. and silence makes this place different. But in one of the rooms, Syaoran's , something is happening. "He looks pale" a nurse from  couple remarked standing by the door. " I know. Then doctor says that there is no cure. He states that his case has never happened before." Another one added as she closed the door silently.

Inside this room Syaoran was sleeping. He hadn't heard anything since he was deep in it,  but something was tormenting him... something that would probably change this whole story that I'm writing... 

.........................

"Bye Syaoran!!! I will see you tomorrow" Syaoran watched as the girl of his dreams waved as she went farther from him. He smiled as he also waved, but something turned his smile upside down. A figure in the darkness was reaching her, and she couldn't notice it. "No, Sakura!!!!! " Syaoran tried to reach her but a sudden black fog covered him. "Sakura!!!" He kept shouting. He didn't know where he was going, he was lost. He then heard a shriek. "Syaoran!!!" 

"Do you want this to happen?" he heard a voice he recognized. "No" he answered as he lowered his head. "Who are you?!" he asked. "That is the same question I should be asking you. Who are you?" the voice replied. Syaoran lifted his head and looked around him. "You will not find me there..." the voice warned. "Then where!" Syaoran demanded clenching his fists. "I'm right here" As Syaoran heard the voice behind him he turned around. But all he saw was a reflection of himself in a shattered mirror. "Is this some kind of joke?" he asked looking around him again. "No its not, look again" the voice sounded right in front of him. When he glanced he saw himself again. "What?" The mirror was now the mirror that he had when he was at home in his bedroom in Hong Kong. It was his same room. He turned back and the darkness was gone.

"Look into the mirror" the voice ordered him. He looked at it to see himself. "I don't get it" he answered still gazing. "Its you who you are talking to" The mirror now showed another Syaoran. Syaoran stared astonished. "Now I'm asking you, do you want that to happen to Sakura?" "Of course not, are you blind?!" he said angrily. "Why of course I'm blind. You are..." "Then how come I see?" "Duh, cause this is a dream. You are sleeping, remember?" The mirror Syaoran started going out from the mirror and changed the scenery to the hospital.

He saw himself sleeping restlessly in the bed. Turning around and sweating. His eyes were shut. "Who are you?" he asked himself. "That is what I should ask you" the other responded. "You are not making any sense!" "Neither are you!" Syaoran looked again at himself (his mirror self). "What do you want?" The mirror self smirked. "I want to show you something. Remember what just happened?" Syaoran nodded. "Well I have to show you something"

Syaoran blinked, and when he did, the scenery changed to a funeral. Everyone was silent as the wept in sorrow. He could see Tomoyo, Eriol, Kero, Touya and everyone else, but he could not see Sakura. He saw himself dressed in a black tuxedo. Tomoyo came up to him. "I am sorry Syaoran, but it is your fault!" Tomoyo snapped. "What do you mean?" he asked bewildered. "You know what I mean!!" she said running away from him. Eriol went after her. "How could you?" was all he said. "What do you mean?!" he asked as he gripped his hair tight.

"You know what I mean GAKI! You killed her" Touya said glaring. "Who?!" Syaoran asked. "I can not believe you are asking me this!!!!!!  I hate you! It is all your fault" he also went away. "What is happening?!?!?! " He screamed as he saw all the people exchange glares and  sadness as they passed by him. Pity and at the same time shame. They say he killed her..... No... he did not save her. He was only staring... No he was not staring he is blind....... That poor girl.....

The crowd vanished and Syaoran was now facing a graveyard. A tomb staring right in front of him. Carved down with the name he feared it could be. Sakura. He could not believe this. His heart was torn apart. He knelt in front of it, and a hand touched his shoulder. "This is what happened to her... you were the one who did this" his mirror self said. "Why?" Syaoran stood up. "You were not there for her, you never will be now that you are blind" he answered. "No, that is not true!" he said. "Yes it is, if you didn't save her then who would. You were not there to protect her. What can you do when you are blind!?" Tomoyo suddenly appeared.

"You should be ashamed! You are not my descendant you will never will be!" Eriol appeared. "You are a GAKI, that is what you are! You killed my sister SAKURA!!!"

SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA... SAKURA..........…

The name echoed through Syaoran's mind as he was back in pure darkness. "You can not be around Sakura, never. She will lose her life. You are blind! You can not do nothing for her!!!! Even if you try she will die!!!! Only if you leave her...

"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!"

.........................

Syaoran woke up from his nightmare. He was dripping with sweat. But it looked like the nightmare didn't end, because he was still in the same blackness. His injuries were stinging him with pain. He knew that if he wanted Sakura to be safe... he would have to. ..........................................................................
