Oh geesh~~ I know this took forever to restart and finish.. Sorry~~~
You know the usual~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This was it. This was the day that she would figuratively and literally give her all to Yue.
It had taken Clow and herself two days to finalize everything and get the fine details down. In those two days, Sakura had refused to see either Yue or Kero. The only reason they had been given by Clow was that she was working on a important project that could not tolerate any distraction. The two faithful guardians had not believed a word, and they took advantage of every chance to get a glimpse of her. Those advantages became too frequent and close that Clow had eventually put up a barrier around the room.
Now. Today, their anticipated wait was over. She was coming out.for the last time. The time had to be right for the plan to work and until that hour, Sakura sat at her desk writing a letter to both Yue and Kero. To Keroberos, she was leaving behind a simple letter and a book composted of recipes of his favorite foods and to Yue, she left him a journal. A journal she had kept since as long as she could remember and a letter tucked in somewhere in the pages. Both wrapped in gift paper, she placed them side-by-side on her desk. It was time.
Sakura stepped out of the room to be greeted by a excited Keroberos and an anxious Yue. To the two guardians, she looked better than she looked in days. There was color in her face and light in her eyes. She graced them both with a dazzling smile and reached for her love's hand.
"You shouldn't worry so much.you'll get wrinkles." Sakura looked up with worry at her moon guardian.
"I would not have to worry as much if some mistress of mine did not give any reason to." Yue glanced at her.
For a moment their eyes locked and they fell away to their own world. Sakura wanted to say so much, but she knew that she did not have that luxury. She needed to get this done. Not letting go of Yue's hand, Sakura begin to walk towards the garden.
"Yue. Let's make our vows again." Sakura turned her emerald gaze upon the startled guardian.
"Vows? What vows?" A confused Sun guardian looked from Yue to Sakura and back.
"Why?" A simple question was asked by the startled man.
"I just need to know. I just need those comforting words again." Sakura sat down on the bench at the center of the garden.
A sea of bluebells surrounded the trio and far off, a lone Sakura tree swayed in the wind. Underneath, Clow stood. Creating the first and only step to the spell which he and Sakura had worked on.
"Sakura is something wrong? I." Yue hesitated as Sakura turned away from him to look towards the sky. "I feel as if you do not love me anymore."
"OH! Never that Yue!" Startled, Sakura quickly faced her love. "I could never stop loving you. Even if I no longer exist my heart would always be with you. Yue, you must believe me!"
"Sakura, you're my life, I could not go on if you were not here." Yue gently leaned in to kiss her.
Sakura hesitated. Waiting for the signal that would confirm the completion of Clow's task. Then as if Clow had known what she was thinking, the signal came. Sakura leaned in to Yue's kiss.
A sigh escaped between Sakura's kiss and an invisible stream of fog slipped from her mouth to Yue's. Yue gasped and pulled away. Sakura crumpled to the ground.
"SAKURA!" Kero quickly ran to her side and nudged the immobile mistress. "Sakura?"
Yue fell to his knee and lifted the cold mistress to his lap. He listened for a sign of her breath, then for a heart beat. Nothing.
"Sa.Sakura?" Yue hesitated. "SAKURA!!!!!!" A tremor took control of Yue's body and shook him to his core.
He began shaking her body. A sob rose from his throat and soon it became a loud chorus with Kero's roar. Yue looked down at his heart and began to whisper.
"I love you. I love you as the moon loves his star and as the sun loves his cloud. Your every breath is life to me and your very voice feeds my soul. I will love you through sick and poor. I will worship you through time. I am your guardian, but now let me also be your heart. Give me the change to prove my love to you. I will love you 'til a day after eternity. . Just promise me.you'll stay by my side."
Yue murmured those last words and hugged her fragile frame.
"You promised."
Yue kissed her forehead and slowly leaned in to kiss her cold lips. As his lips touched hers, Sakura began to fade away. Frightened, Yue held on to his mistress with all his strength.
"Don't! Don't go Sakura!" Yue desperately held on to his fading love.
For a moment, Sakura's eye's opened. She whispered.
"I love you.." Then she was gone.
A horrible sound filled the night sky as the full moon arose from its slumber.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Years later
There had been no funeral. And when the two guardians returned to the house, Clow was gone. It was as if he had never been there, and maybe he hadn't.
They both grieved in different fashion. Kero locked himself in the book and refused to come out, even to pudding. Yue, being Yue, felt dejected and stayed out all day and night. Neither had the courage to enter the library that Sakura had loved so much.
Yue was the first to enter. His curiosity as to what he may find there, an explanation had led him to enter into the library. He looked around the room. Touching everything. Hoping that he could somehow touch her by touching the items she loved. His venture throughout the library brought him to her desk. On it were two objects wrapped. In Sakura's flowing handwriting, the names 'Yue' and 'Kero' were seen.
Afraid that if he touched them they might disappear, Yue hesitated a moment. Then after cuilding up enough courage, he reached for both items. Yue quickly left the library and when the Sakura book.
"Kero." Yue called to his counterpart. There was no response. Not having expected any, Yue left the package with Kero's name on it by the Sakura book. Taking his gift, Yue left to go sit in his favorite spot. Kero, curious as to why Yue left without the usual words, came out to find a gift. Opening it, Kero found a letter about Sakura's love for him and a book of delicious recipes. Kero, looking at the objects, cried fresh tears of regret, hurt, betrayal, and, finally, acceptance.
Outside, Yue had settled himself under the sakura tree. Opening the package, he found a old book. Opening it, the first thing he saw was "dear journal". With concentration and diligence, Yue read through the whole book. Laughing, crying, and hurting with the growing the Sakura displayed in the journal. As the last page of the book was turned a sheet of paper fell out.
It was a letter from Sakura.
