REVIEW OF THE…UHHH…5TH CHAP
And it goes to
Final Fantasy Princess
Sorry it took me SOO long to review. Gomen nesai!! Hee Hee. School has been occupying MOST of my time. And thanks for mentioning me twice in your fic. Just to tell you now, I am Aeris Gainsborough/Brenda. I changed my name to this one..... But I'm still a great fan of your fic! Sorry I took so long and I feel bad that Sakura left. Syaoran BETTER think about WHAT he IS doing. That baka. -hits baka Syaoran on the head.- Ahh well. Tell me when you update your fic! Great job so far!!
Little Blossom's response - It's okay if it took you so long to review cause school gets in the way of everything . That's why it can take me so long to update . Teachers pile up the homework cause they don't think we have a life outside of school , well newsflash to teachers ,WE DO . I'm so happy you like my fic and better yet you say you're a fan of it I'm so flattered . You're right Syaoran better think about what hi is doing . *Laughs cause Syaoran got hit and got told by Final Fantasy Princess . Thanx for review .It was so nice that it made you have review of the 5th chapter.
Little Blossom: Now that that's done . On with the fic and hopefully ~LB~ and Syaoran will be back soon.

Return Of Dark
Chap. 5 Sakura's Gone And Get Ready To Train
"So what did you want to talk to me about? "Asked Touya as he sat on the couch in the living room eyeing Eriol suspiciously .
"Is your father home ? I rather not explain it twice ." Said Eriol to Touya sitting in an armchair across from Touya.
"Ya he is .I'll go get him . When I return your explanation better be good or else."
Eriol sweat dropped . "ummmm…..sure ." and with that Touya got up and left .
This is going to be very difficult to explain without being pummelled . On the bright side Fujitaka has always been rational , is war brakes out he'll try to stop it.
Touya returned a few minutes later with Sakura's father .
"Konichiwa Hirragizawa-san." He said politely before sitting beside Touya .
"Konichiwa Kinomoto-san . It's nice to see you again ."
"So why are you here." Spoke Touya getting impatient . "What's wrong with my Kaiju .
Eriol smiled at the nickname Touya had for Sakura . Still he was always over protective of her . Now to tell him . I think I'll need to get a bottle of Advil on the way home . Something tells me I'm going to get a headache . "Well Sakura's gone." Eriol said cautiously as if he were trying to diffuse a bomb
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN GONE . EXPLAIN NOW." He yelled . Eriol winced at how load he was . Make that two bottles .
"She's not dead Touya [Lil B : It should be Kinomoto-san but than you would get confused between him and Fujitaka] . She just not here ."
"Then where is she ." he spoke giving Eriol were that were worse than the ones he gave Syaoran , which he found inhumanly possible
"Well l …." Eriol began to start saying .
"Yes ." He continues his glare at me .
" Recently she's been getting hurt in her dreams . Anything that happened to her in her dreams happened to her in reality . I don't know if you've noticed but she's been in great pain these days ." He said .
"WHY?" he continued to yell .
" Touya , please . Hirragizawa-san please continue." Fujitaka said politely , trying to calm down his son while him himself is trying to not get lost in the information about his daughter .
" Arigato Kinomoto-san . As I was saying she was getting hurt in her dreams . The only way for her not to get hurt , and end up dying is if she left." Eriol tried to explain but found it rather difficult with the looks Touya gave him .
" and….where exactly….did…she…go?" asked Touya who seemed to be twitching trying to hold in his anger.
"Look it was her decision . It was the only way she would live . You can't protect her in her dreams , it's her own world . And I don't know where she went , she just said that she would be leaving for a year to train , or something like that . I think she's training with some guy and his sister ." Eriol said trying to stay calm but was getting slightly annoyed .
"IF SHE TOLD YOU WHY DIDN'T YOU STOP HER , AND YOU HAVE MAGIC WHY COULDN'T YOU HELP HER ." Touya let his anger out yelling at Eriol who was trying no to go deaf .
"Would you stop yelling and let me explain . It's her own world and even I can't help her there . She also has stronger magic than me and I couldn't force her to stay even if I tried . Couldn't you tell she was in pain . She left to train to help her forget about it . This is also the only way she would stay alive . I wasn't happy about her leaving either but it was for the best . I know if you look deep down inside yourself you'll know it was for the best too . There was nothing any of us could do . "He replied sternly to him .
Touya seemed to back down knowing he was right . "Fine . But now what are we going to do . Just wait here for a year .?" He asked giving in .
Fujitaka who was being quiet decided to speak . "Thank you very much Hirragizawa-san . I know you're only trying to do what's best . Sakura also has very good judgement in people so she wouldn't have gone unless she knew she could trust these people . Is there anything else you need to tell us?"
"Well Kinomoto-san there is one more thing that she asked me to do . She doesn't want anyone , and I mean anyone to know that she left to train . Not even Yue and Keroberous . She only wished me and you two to know about it . She wanted you guys to lets everyone know she left on an exchange program . I think she said England. I'm supposed to pretend I don't know anything . Onegai. Do this .This was her request ." Eriol pleaded with them . " And for Kero and Yue tell them that Sakura needed time alone so and she didn't want the big goodbye's ." He added so he didn't leave them to think of their own reason .
"I guess we have no choice on the matter . Thank you again for telling us and watching over her . Touya I understand you're upset , but he's right . Good thing it's only for a year ." Said Fujitaka .
"My dad's right . When she comes back make sure you watch over her . Something tells me when she comes back I won't be able to protect her from the thing that will hurt her most." Touya told Eriol seriously .
~Even after he gave up his power he can sense when his sisters in trouble . He must love her very much. I don't think I ever sensed it . But in my mind there's a little voice telling me that I might not be able to help her either .~ "Don't worry Touya I'll do my best to protect her. Gomen but I must get going now . If I don't get home Nakuru will start looking for me and she might start here because of you Touya." Eriol said standing up from the chair he was in.
Touya Shuddered before speaking "I'll show you to the door." I really don't want to have that thing hanging off me today . Especially in this mood .
"No thanx . I'll just let myself out." Said Eriol before going out the door and onto the street.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I'm ready." Sakura said .
"Good . You've already met my brother Naotoshi . My name is Yuko Kuroyama . I'll be one of your trainers . My brother and I will be training you . I'm not going to lie to you . The training will be harsh , but it doesn't mean we're going to go easy on you. Hayashi Tiatsu won't . I'll give you a schedule of the training program . You're training will start tomorrow with my brother Naotoshi . The days will alternate . You get him Sunday , Tuesday and Thursday . I'll have you for Monday , Wednesday and Friday." Said Yuko with a stern look on her face .
"What about Saturday ?" asked Sakura
"Every Saturday we will set up a test that you must complete . It could be something as retrieving an item or fighting a group . It will vary . Being outside this training area can be dangerous . It's not all sugar and spice out here . There are some pretty deadly gangs . Understood ." She said , again with a stern look on her face .
Sakura just stared nervously shaking her head up and down to signify she understood .
"Good." Her face suddenly changed from the stern look into a kind cheerful smile. "I'll show you to your room and than give you the schedule . I'll also give you a tour after dinner of the area . It'll be nice not being the only girl around here . Our grandpa Masashi lives here too . He's a little strange but a great guy , I'm sure you'll like him . Anyhow I really should show you to your room while my brother finishes getting ready for tomorrow . Follow me ." She said cheerfully . She started walking towards the hallway . Sakura started to follow her . She went through the many twists and turns the hallway brought . Sakura just realised how big this place was . Yuko stopped abrupt idly at a wooden door . She opened it to reveal a very nice room .
"This will be your sleeping corridors . Feel free to change anything . I'll come get you at 5:55 for dinner . Oh and before I forget here's your schedule ." Said Yuko handing her a sheet of paper .
Sakura simply nodded to show she understood and wondered about her personality . She can be so stern and serious but than suddenly change to a kind and very cheerful person . Sakura walked into the room . In it lay a bed in the corner covered in new white sheets . The carpet on the ground was a shade of navy blue and the wall paper was a dark blue decorated with designs done in silver . There was a nicely furnished desk , shelves and a dresser . There was a door that was a mirror which inside was a closet . She put her stuff on the bed and looked down at the paper.

Sakura read the schedule very carefully .
"Well I'm totally booked for the next 27 years ." Sakura said to herself while sighing .
Sakura started to take the pictures out of her bag and put them on the counter . She found many clothes in the closet and the dresser . She knew it would hurt people to know she was gone but it had to be done for them and herself . In her dresser the clothes looked like they were meant more for training and the clothes in her closet were robes , nice clothes and some other things she may need .
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Eriol walked into the classroom his mind on Sakura , but on his face he didn't show it too much . He needed to look like he was worried cause he was before , but not to worried to make people suspicious . He saw that Tomoyo and Syaoran were already there . And they both looked very stressed with their faces very sad . Eriol sighed and decided it was now the time to test out his acting skills , well to a more extreme extant for this time he didn't know what was going on [Lil B: Remember he had to pretend he was a regular boy when Sakura was transforming the clow cards to Sakura cards].
"Ohayo Tomoyo , my cute little descendent ." I greeted putting on a smile.
Tomoyo looked up slowly putting on a small smile , but it looked so sad. "Ohayo Eriol-kun ."
Eriol turned to see Syaoran's reaction , but he didn't do anything . Not even a glare for calling him that . "Is something wrong Tomoyo . You seem so sad ?" Eriol asked trying to pretend he didn't know what was going on .
"You'll find out later." She replied softly and gently , yet very sad .
A few moments later the teacher came in . He was a tall man with glasses and sandy blond hair . He was a in fact though a very good teacher and was very kind .
"Ohayo minna-san . I hope you had a good weekend . I have some news . I got a message from the office saying that Kinomoto-san is going on a student exchange program in England ." The teacher spoke to the class . After he said it the class broke out into whispering to each other . "Now as much as I would like to discuss this I do have a class to teach ." the teacher said bringing down the gossip . He started teaching and Eriol turned around to see Tomoyo and Syaoran in a depressive state , Tomoyo looked the same but Syaoran seemed even more out of it .
'He probably didn't know she was leaving , but knowing Tomoyo she called yesterday and Touya or Kinomoto-san told her.' thought Eriol .
Eriol quickly got a scrap of paper and wrote something quickly than passing it to Tomoyo . Tomoyo started to read it and it read :
Tomoyo
Is this what you meant earlier . And how did you find out?
Tomoyo quickly replied and handed it to Eriol .Eriol opened it and it read :
Eriol
I'll tell you at lunch . Meet me at the usual place by the cherry blossom tree
Eriol tore his gaze away from the note and looked at Tomoyo . When he saw she was looking at him he nodded to show he understood .
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sakura sat in her room . She was just finishing . She put the Sakura book in her desk drawer just like at her home. She put the schedule on the wall . She than heard a knock on the door . She opened it and saw Yuko there .
"It's time for dinner . Is everything okay here ?" she asked .
"It's fine . I'll just have to remember my way around here . That tour you're giving me after dinner will sure some in handy." Sakura replied .
"Okay than let's go down for dinner ." She said as she started heading down the corridors .
Sakura followed her to the dinning room where they ate supper . The food was very good and she met their grandpa Masashi . Soon after they ate Yuko started to show her around the place . The place was a bit bigger than Tomoyo's house which means it was huge . She showed her where hers and her brother room was . The different training areas for her classes and some other areas . Behind the house was a forest , and if you went through the forest you would come to a village . Out of the whole tour Sakura's favourite place was the garden . The garden was very beautiful and it made Sakura feel calm and relaxed . Soon enough Sakura went to bed to get the rest she'll need for the days of training in the very ,very near future .
Naotoshi looked into the room to see the sleeping figure . He was staying up tonight using his magic to let Sakura have a peaceful dreamless sleep . He specialized in dream magic . "Goodnight Sakura . Sleep while you can , cause from now on it'll be what you look forward to . You're so young , it must be hard with all this pressure but I know you can do it." he whispered to the sleeping girl before leaving and quietly closing the door .
