"HOE?!?!?!" Sakura looked from Eriol to the Elders, there were about 8, then back at Eriol. Her stunned expression brought a slight smile to their faces, but was quickly banished and replaced by a neutral frown.

"Eriol, What the HELL is going on?" Eriol looked at the Elders then at his watch "Umm Sakura its like 12 am, Maybe you should get some slee...." He was unable to finish.

"Eriol, We must explain the ordeal Sakura has been through, while it is fresh in her mind." A wrinkly elder stepped foward and bowed stiffly to Sakura. "Come child. We will explain in the conference sector."

As they walked down a corridor Sakura finally looked around at her surrondings. The room she had just left was large, and had many animal paintings hanging on the walls. A large stone wolf had stood behind the elders and Sakura shivered as its bright green eyes seemed to look directly at her.

The corridor was long and twisted. The walls were lined with pictures of wrinkly old men and women. As they progressed the pictures gradually began to show younger looking people, until they came to one that looked "Exactly like Syaoran." Sakura thought aloud. And it was, his eyes were the deep, magestic brown that Sakura had gotten lost in many times. His hair was rough, yet it held a certain authority. The only thing wrong with the picture was he wasn't smiling. His face wore the same, emotionles frown that she had seen on every other photo.

"That is Syaoran." An Elder stopped the proccession and turned to face Sakura. His statement was not an answer, nor a question, just merely, a statement. "Come, we are not far."

After a few more minutes they all entered another room, slightly smaller then the previous, but no less impressive. Sakura gaped at the furniture. "Wow, this is a woodi have never seen before!" Sakura ran her hand over the dark table. "It is Rimu, a native wood of New Zealand." A youngish women entered the room from a different door and bowed gracefully to Sakura."I am Yelan Li, Syaoran's mother. Congratulations Sakura, for beating the Li clan's test."

Sakura stared at her "Test? What test?" Yelan glared at the Elders, her eyes a blaze, "You didnt tell her it was a test?!" The Elder shuffled their feet and one finally spoke up "Well, Mistress Li, we thought it better if Sakura didnt know that it was all just a test."

Sakura was confused, again, "Test? Okay what is going on?" Yelan sighed and looked back at Sakura, "Well Sakura, the past two days have all been a test, nothing really happened. Nothing was real."

Sakura gasped, shock and relief filled her mind. "But, Tomoyo and Syaoran...." Yelan smiled "You'll be pleased to know that they arent really dead. Their soul is just in a dimension opposite from this world, I think we had better bring them back now."

The Elders nodded and started to chant a strange sounding song. An image flickered in front of Sakuras eyes and slowly became solid. "SYAORAN!" Sakura flung herself into his arms. "Sakura!" He looked around "What happened?" Yelan shook his head and indicated for them to be silent.

The Elders continued their chant but their faces grew grim.

"Mistress Li? We cant bring Miss Tomyo back... Something is wrong."
