A/N Thanks to all those that have reviewed. I will try to use the Japenese
names in my next story ((if i write one)) but as I have finally finished
the draft for this one it stays English.
Chapter Five -The Truth Is Out-
"So, Eriol, What are you doing in Hong Kong?" Sakura teased. Madisons face turned bright red and Eriol laughed. "Well I thinkthat has something to do with Madison here." Madison glared at Eriol in mock fury. "And what makes you say that?" she demanded. "Well I really dont know. Say, they have a great cafe down the road...do you guys want to go?" Kero poked his head out of Sakuras bag "SURE!" Madison nodded, but Sakura and Li shook thier heads. "Okay, See you later!" Eriol took Madisons hand and walked down the street, followed closely by Kero.
Li watched them leave then looked at Sakura, "So where to now?" Sakura shrugged "Why dont we go to the park? I brought my first aid kit, and those cuts look like the need some attention" Li was about to object when Sakura took his hand and half lead-half dragged Li to a park bench. She sat down and pulled out a small first aid kit she put some anesthetic cream on a peice of cotton and wiped it over the cut on Li's cheek "Hey! that stings!" Sakura nodded "Good." Li stared at her "Good?" Sakura smiled "It means that it hasnt paralysed your cheek or anything" Li stared at her "Right...."
Sakura finished fixing Li up and packed up her first aid kit. "I missed you Sakura." Li spoke up suddenly, unable to keep it in much longer. Sakura froze then slowly turned to look at him, her eyes suddenly full with tears. "I missed you too Li" Li bit his lip "Dont cry Sakura," He gently wiped her cheek dry "I am here now" Li looked into Sakuras eyes, he saw the pain she had felt, the sadness she had hidden, for seven years. He put his arms around her and held her close to him so her head rested lightly on his chest. "I am so sorry." He mumbled softly into her hair. Sakura looked up, her eyes wide with astonishment "Why?" Li looked away, "I am sorry I left you, seven years ago, I am sorry I never wrote, never called, never came back." He looked down at her "I am sorry I wasn't there when you needed me"
Sakura shook her head slightly "You only left because you had to. Your honour and pride are far more important than me, Li you cant risk losing them." Li looked angry for an instant. "Dont you ever EVER think that." He told her firmly "I used to think that when I left. My life has been hell since. A day hasnt passed when I didnt regret leaving you, when I didnt wonder what might have happened between ...." Li didnt finish, but Sakura didnt ask what he was going to say, she already knew. "I love you Li" she whispered softly. Her eyes sparkled with a light of their own. Li lifted her chin and kissed her lovingly.
Time lost all meaning to both of them as the kiss lingered. Sakura finally let go of all pain, pain she had hidden for seven long years, seven years, without Li.
Li's heart felt light, as if a great burden had been lifted. Memories flashed in his mind, days of laughter, days of happiness, days spent in Japan with Sakura.
All good things must end, and this ended sooner then either of them had expected. "My, my! Isnt this a lovely scene." A familiar yet alien voice broke the silence.Li looked up, "Teren." his voice was a mere whisper, yet full of venom. "Oh no no, you stupid boy, Teren is just my host, I am Elad Neptune and I have come for my revenge. My ultimate revenge!" Terens voice was cold and emotionless.
Li grabbed his sword, ready to attack but Sakura grabbed his arm "No Li! I know Teren is in there somewhere, and we cant hurt him!" Li narrowed his eyes and gritted his teeth "Then what do you suggest we do?" Sakura bowed her head in thought.Her eyes flashed hopefully as she flung a card into the air "ILLUSION, Break through the bond holding Teren and Elad in one body! NOW!" As her staff hit the card a stream of light erupted towards Teren. It hit one person, and raised him into the air. Slowly, painfully, the one figure split in two. The stream of light ceased, the shorter figure plumeted to the ground and landed on the grass with a sickening crack. The other, taller, cruel-looking one floated down, an evil smirk plastered on his face.
"Thank you, Clow Mistress, for releasing me."

"So, Eriol, What are you doing in Hong Kong?" Sakura teased. Madisons face turned bright red and Eriol laughed. "Well I thinkthat has something to do with Madison here." Madison glared at Eriol in mock fury. "And what makes you say that?" she demanded. "Well I really dont know. Say, they have a great cafe down the road...do you guys want to go?"

Eriol took Madisons hand and walked down the street, followed closely by Kero.
Li watched them leave then looked at Sakura, "So where to now?" Sakura shrugged "Why dont we go to the park?
