Chapter 17
Undercover Nurse

"You shouldn't have done that. What you did was a very bad thing. You are a bad girl. Do you know what we do to bad girl in this hospital?" The nurse asked.
"N-n-no," Sakura replied.
"We tie them down so the can't get away again," She told Sakura while holding up straps.
"Wait you don't have to do that I won't leave this room again please don't," But it was too late she was already putting them on Sakura's wrist and ankles.
"Oh but I do hospital rule," She said while putting another strap around her ankle. Sakura didn't know what was up with this nurse but wanted to see another one.
"Please let me go. I demand you to let me go!" Sakura screamed very loudly forcing another nurse to come in to see what this was all about.
"What going on in here?" The nurse asked in a sweet tone. The other nurse immediately stops what she was doing and hides the last strap behind her back.
"N-nothing, nothing at all," She said in a shaky but innocent tone.
"It sure sounded like something to me. Let me she this girl. Why does she have straps on her wrist and ankle?" The nurse asked.
"She was giving me trouble. Kicking and screaming. I had to, there was no other way," She told the other nurse.
"I see can I speak to your patient alone for a moment," She asked.
"Of course," She bowed and then left.
"Hello there, what is your name?" She asked.
"Sa..kur..a," Sakura answered a bit frightened.
"No need to be frightened, I won't hurt you. Would you mind if I took these off?" She asked Sakura shook her head saying no. "Alright hold still. Don't worry it wont hurt," She told her calmly.
"C-can I see Li?" Sakura asked.
"Oh and who is Li?" She asked after all the straps were removed.
"My boyfriend, he is in the critical care unit. Please I need him," Sakura begged.
"Alright, just wait here I'll go see if he is awake. If he is then I will take you there okay?" She asked as she headed for the door.
"Yea," Was her reply. A few minutes later she returned with a wheel chair for Sakura to sit in as they went to his room.
"I can walk fine," Sakura protested.
"Hospital rules," She said Sakura didn't like those words. The other nurse had said them when she strapped her down.
"Alright," Sakura said in defeat. As they were half way to Li room. Sakura somebody screaming her name.
"Sakura!" She heard it again. This time she looked behind her and found Madison running after her.
"Madison!" Sakura yelled back.
"Do you know this girl?" The nurse asked.
"Yea she's my best friend," Sakura told her.
"Oh Sakura I was so worried about you," Madison told her as they hugged.
"I knew you would that's why I asked Kari to phone you. Did she tell Mrs. Izumi?" Sakura asked.
"Yea, they are really worried as well. Where is Syaoran?" Madison asked.
"He's in the critical care unit I was on my way there now," Sakura pointed out.
"Critical Care, that's horrible Sakura. What happened?" Madison asked again.
"I'll tell you later alright. Right now I need to see Syaoran," Sakura told her.
"Alright lets go," And they where again on their way to see Syaoran when they heard another call.
"Sakura!" The voice yelled out.
"Now what?" Sakura asked obviously pissed that she wasn't with Shaoran.
"Wow, calm down Sakura. It's just me," Kari told her.
"Oh sorry. How did you figure out what hospital I was in?" Sakura asked.
"Well we started to phone around and this place said that two people came in yesterday by your names," Kari told her.
"Okay, well can we please go see Li now," Sakura practically pleaded.
"Of course," Kari told her. And they were of for the third time to see Li. And guess what they made it. Sakura not being able to hold in all her content got out of the wheel chair and running over to Li. But when she got there she found an empty bed.
"Shaoran? Where is he?" Sakura questioned the nurse.
"I don't know where he could be. He couldn't have walked off. He was tied down by too many-" before she could finish Sakura interrupted.
"Tied down? Like I was, this hospital has some major problems," Sakura shouted.
"No, no nothing like that, tied down by all the machines, and things," She explained.
"Oh okay. But where is he?" Sakura asked.
"Where is who?" A voice asked.
"Syaoran!" Sakura yelled as she leaped into his warm embrace.
"Sakura what wrong? What happened after you left?" Syaoran asked.
"I'll tell you later, right now I am just glad to see you," Sakura told him.
"Why are you not in bed?" The nurse asked.
"Well they said I was doing better and took all the junk out of me, and said I could be moved out of the critical care unit. But I needed to walk around so I took a walk," Li explained.
"Alright," The nurse said pleased with his explanation. Sakura on the other hand was not pleased.
"Li, you shouldn't be walking around after what happened to you. You need you rest. Nurse I have a suggestion can Li be moved into my room, that way I can keep an eye on him, so that he doesn't get into any trouble," She asked the nurse.
"I will see what I can do," the nurse said and then left.
"Sakura, can you let go of me now?" Li asked.
"Oh sorry, Li," She told him and then let go. "I've just been so worried about you," She told him again.
"I've been worried about you as well, how are you," He asked not noticing any body else in the room.
"I've been fine. Don't worry about me, your condition is more serious," The emerald eyed girl said.
"Ahem," Kari said interrupting the Kawaii couple.
"Hoe, oh right. Kari and Madison came to visit," Sakura told him.
"Oh, I hope we did not worry any body," Li stated.
"Not really, Mr and Mrs. Izumi are just wondering what they are going to do with you. I mean you've been here like a week and already been in the hospital twice and in the three day spread," Kari told him.
"Yea, I know. Do you think I am proud of this? Making people worry about me. I hate to do that. I never choose to be magical, it choose me. If I could choose other wise then I would never have wanted my powers!" Li screamed at her.
"Whoa, sorry Li. I meant nothing by it," Kari told him.
"No, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have yelled like that. I've been a little tense lately," Li told her.
"Li, lets go back to my room, and talk. Come on you guys," Sakura said leading them out of the room. So they walked over to Sakura's room, and when she walked in she saw the evil nurse. "What are you doing in my room?" Sakura questioned.
"I am you nurse, what else would I be doing. I was wondering where my patient had gone," She told her.
"And I told you that I don't want you as a nurse. Now leave!" Sakura demanded.
"Now is that any way to talk to an elder?" The nurse asked.
"You heard her she said out!" Li told her.
"Oh and who are you?" the nurse questioned.
"I am Syaoran Li, this young lady's boyfriends, what's it to you?" Li asked.
"Ah Syaoran Li, from the Li Clan no?" She asked him.
"Yes, again what's it to you?" Li asked a second time.
"Nothing really, just your destruction," She told him. To say the least Li was shocked who was she to have his destruction.
"What do you mean, My destruction?" Li asked.
"Well, to put it simply so that your little minds will understand, I will destroy you. In other words Mr. Li I'm going to kill you," She told him.
"And why must you do this?" He asked her surprisingly calm.
"I was ordered. That's all you need to know. Now Syaoran Li, you will die!" She yelled as she ran towards Li. But Sakura stopped her before the knife that she was holding could get to him.
"NNNNOOOOO!!!" Li yelled as he saw Sakura lie on the ground, he ran towards her only to be blocked by the nurse.
"Like I said now it is time for you to die," She repeated herself. Li would not just let his beloved lie their waiting for death to overcome her. He ran towards the nurse chanting words as his onyx became his trusty sword. (Yea, the one that almost killed him) He thrusted the sword at her. But before it could hit her she changed into what looked like the well the Change Card. The one that made Li spend a day as Kero. Was that an awful day.
"Whoa, what happened?" He asked as the Lizard type card came running towards him. "No not again, I ain't touching that thing," Li shouted as he ducked.
"Li watch out!" Madison yelled as it came at him once again.
"What? AH!" He yelled as he once again ducked from the attack of the change card. "How is this happening Sakura has all the cards, this shouldn't be," Li stated.
"All answers will be answered soon. You must be patient," The voice called out. Li called upon his lightning but it did nothing. Just like the Lightning the attack went right through it.
"What the-" Li was a bit shocked at this. Not wanting to believe that his magic was not strong enough to fight this monster. Then just as the Lightning did, it vanished.
"Where did it go?" Asked Kari. Li was too preoccupied with getting to Sakura and didn't bother to answer besides he didn't know what the answer was.
"Sakura are you alright? You have got to stop scaring me like this," Li told her as he got to her an lifted her off the ground.
"I'm fine. She never really got me. Just a little cut. What about you, are you all right?" Sakura asked.
"Sakura for once please think of your self and not others. We are all fine but you my dear Cherry Blossom need to rest," Li said as he lifted her off the ground and onto her bed.
"Thank you Shaoran," Sakura told. Of course Li blushed because of what she called him.
"Aw Li you know how Kawaii you are when you blush like that?" Madison inquired which made him blush even more. Some things never change. Again not to far away a voice in the bushes is heard.
"Soon my dear Sakura, soon," Then it was gone.
Soon Mr. and Mrs. Kamiya and Izumi were at the hospital to visit their "Adoptive Children" of course they wanted to know what happened and how come they didn't know sooner. But they left out all the Clow/Sakura Cards and Digimon even though they already know about them.
"Oh dear, I was so worried about you. I wonder you think you can stay out of the hospital for three days straight?" Mrs. Izumi asked.
"I'll try, Mrs. Izumi," Li told her. They where there for most of the day but left soon so they could get some sleep. Madison and Kari had told Sakura of the plans that their boyfriends had for the next day. Which was Valentine's Day. Li felt really bad that they couldn't go out for a special dinner but promised that once he was well enough and she as well, that they would have their special night. They had been given the heads up that it was okay to share a room. They were quietly falling asleep in each other's arms when Sakura gently kissed him on the stomach. Li felt a pleasurable tingle go up his spin when she did it again. He was about to protest when she landed on his mouth with a passionate kiss. He was shocked at first but after melted into her sweet sent of Cherry Blossoms. She too was drowning in his beautiful sent. This could have gone on longer if a nurse hadn't come in.
"Are you too awake?" She asked. As if she didn't know.
"Yea we are," Li answered.
"Oh good, just thought I would check up on you two. Making sure you're not doing anything foolish," She told them.
"We're not, so you can leave," Li demanded.
"Well touchy, touchy, are we on this subject. Calm down I'm only here to help," She answered.
"I'm sure you are. We don't need your help right now so please leave," Li asked surprisingly gentle.
"Alright I'm gone," She said as she left.
"Good. Man the people in this hospital are odd," Li said to his girl friend below him.
"Yea. Well we should probably sleep, my dear Shaoran," She told him.
"You're right, good night," He said.
"Good night," And they both feel asleep.
