Sakura slowly woke up in the morning. She was cold on the floor with no warmer under her futon. She just laid there for a while staring up at the ceiling of her room. A couple minuets later her mother quietly walked down the hall. She peered into the dark room with her pure white kimono on.

"I'm glad you're up my dear," She said smiling as she walked to the side of her futon and kneeled down, "You're training with Master Reed today." She brushed Sakura's hair with her fingers and took off the top of Sakura's futon.

"Is that today mother?" She asked as she sat up. She yawned again and starred at her mother.

"Yes it's at noon today at the temple," Her mother said standing up, "Oh yes and please do the dishes before you leave, will you dear?" Her mother turned around and walked out of the doorway.

"Yes mother," She said standing up. She changed into her temple gowned and went down stairs. She quickly did the dishes and went to Tomoyo's house.

"To. Tomoyo, are you home?" Sakura said poking her head into the doorway. She quietly walked in the door and walked into the living room. She heard some music coming from Tomoyo's room. She walked in and heard Tomoyo's sweet voice singing a song. She quietly walked in and looked around. Tomoyo's room was so much bigger than Sakura's. She had a wooden bed frame with soft cotton under her futon. She quietly and politely sat down on the bed and watched Tomoyo's sing to herself in the mirror.

Tomoyo finished her song a couple minuets later and opened. She saw Sakura in the mirror and just smiled. Sakura waved to the mirror and Tomoyo waved back and turned around.

"What are you doing here Sakura," She said as she walked to her bed and sat down next to her.

"Nothing," Sakura smiled and grabbed Tomoyo's hand. She stood up and started dancing around happily.

Tomoyo smiled and said, " Why are you so happy." Tomoyo giggled a little and say down again.

"I'm. training with Mast Reed today!" She said still spinning around. Tomoyo smiled again. She stood up and went to a dresser by the doorway. She softly dug through some things neatly put in the dresser drawer. She pulled out a piece of ribbon and walked to where Sakura was.

"Hey Sakura," She said presenting the ribbon in front of Sakura "Have this." She put the ribbon around Sakura's ponytail.

"It's for good luck," She smiled and put her hands on Sakura's shoulders "Now you're all set to go impress Master Reed! Now go or you'll be late." She pushed Sakura out of the doorway.

"But," Sakura said trying to stop.

"Go, go!" Tomoyo smiled and shut the door. Tomoyo sighed and slowly sunk to the floor. (I wonder.) she thought to her self (Wha. What if Master Reed was right. Wha. What if we do separate. Wha.What if I never see Sakura.or Meilin. Or Syaoran. I. can't imagine life without them all. I hope.I hope he was. wrong) Tomoyo felt a teardrop slide down her nose and fell quietly on the ground.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*~*~ Sakura ran into the temple door. Her socks slipped on the floor and she fell with a big thump on to the floor. She rubbed her head with her hand and stood up. She stood up and lit a lamp in the temple. She walked a couple of steps forward and saw another lamp lit. She looked up and saw the soft face of Master Clow Reed. She put down her lamp and deeply bowed.

He smiled and said, "Hello Little Sakura. I'm sorry to say this but we might have to postpone are training today. I'm very sorry," He disappeared into the silence. (What was that about?) She wondered (oh well. Hey I got an idea! I can go make my mother a special dinner since 5 months ago my father and brother left. to go research.) She smiled to herself and blew out the lantern. She ran as fast as she could and once again slipped on the ground (ouch!) She said as she rubbed her head. She then slipped on her slippers and ran out of the temple.

She ran into town and stopped at the market. She grabbed some vegetables and meat and used some money her mother slipped her before she left for the temple. She ran home and threw open the door.

"Mother I'm home!" She said as she slid into the house. She first ran into the kitchen and put the groceries on the table. She next ran into the living room, but her mother wasn't there either. Then she ran into her room and the sewing but her mother wasn't there either. (Where is she?) Sakura wondered. Then she slid into her mothers room. She walked in and checked around her desk. (Maybe she went to town and I didn't see her) Sakura thought. As she was walking out of the door something caught her eyes. She saw a white envelope. She went over to examine it and saw her name written on it. She grabbed the envelope and ripped it open. In there was a letter. She opened I and read;

My Dearest Daughter Sakura, I'm sorry, but I am no longer able to be with you. or here on this earth at all. My time has ran out here, for my life. Do not worry my daughter I will always be with you by your side. Just look in the shadows and you'll see my shadow as well.

Sakura felt tears run down her cheeks and her eyes were soon flooded. "Mother. Mother. MOTHER NO!" She threw down the letter and fell on her mothers bed "How. how could you leave me. I. I. need you." She started crying harder and harder on her mothers bed. She heard some footsteps behind her and wiped her eyes and looked behind her. She saw Master Clow Reed standing there. He just stared at Sakura. After a few seconds she stood p angrily.

"You knew this didn't you?" She said stomping her foot. She looked up at him sympathetically, but he didn't answer her.

"You knew. You knew," she could no longer bare the sight of him and ran out of the door away from him. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~* ~*~*~*~ As soon as Tomoyo got the news she knew just where Sakura went. Since they were old enough to walk they had a secret place. Tomoyo ran to the place and sure enough she saw Sakura there weeping all alone by herself. Tomoyo walked by where Sakura was sitting on the ground and sat down.

"Sakura. are you alright?" She asked putting her hand on Sakura's shoulder

"To. Tomoyo," Sakura said as she hugged Tomoyo "She left me. I'm. I'm all alone now." She kept on weeping on her shoulders.

"It's ok Sakura, I heard your father and brother are coming home today," Tomoyo tried to tell her but the words didn't get through to Sakura's mind. Tomoyo took something out of her pocket and showed it to Sakura. It was a pink watch . She took it and wrapped it around Sakura's wrist.

"Tomoyo what's this?" She said as she examined the watch " But isn't this the watch that you fa."

"Don't say anything Sakura it helped me and I know it will help you," Tomoyo said as she patted Sakura on shoulders. Sakura smiled for a minuet and went back to crying. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*`*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~**~*~*~*`*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*~*~ So that's the end of chapter 2.
