I decided to start All Costs over again. As much as I love it, I'd like it to be a series. This version will have much more detail. Please note Sakura-tachi are all 17. Also, note that I am a narrator. [Note: I think I used a little too much Japanese ^^;]

"Tomoyo…" Sakura whispered. "Oh god…" Tomoyo turned, teary-eyed to Touya. "Sakura, please –" he began.

"No… it's just…" she spoke.

"I… Sakura-chan, I'm so sorry – oh my god…" Tomoyo sobbed. The only sound for a few minutes was Tomoyo's crying, until it was broken by a smash. All three turned to look at the enterers. "Hiiragazawa-kun? Mitsuki-sensei?" Sakura questioned. "Daidouji-san phoned. We saw my cute relative at the airport. Is he coming, too?"

"Li-kun's here? Sugoi ne~!" Sakura said joyfully. "Yes, he is. Well, unless his way of travel was through that mirror. Eriol-kun here smashed it on our way in," Kaho said. Everybody exclaimed. "Don't worry, I fixed it," Eriol said, smiling.

"Kuso…" Shaoran said as he bumped into an Italian woman coming out of the plane. "Watch it!" he exclaimed. She just turned around and looked at him strangely. Then he noticed, it wasn't an Italian woman, it was a Japanese woman. Her hair was long, frilly and lavender-shaded. And that strange look – who else was it that gave him that look? It was so familiar it might even be himself. But he couldn't see… Sakura! It was Sakura! Sakura gave him that look! And why was he here? SAKURA! Taking no notice again of the Japanese adult, he flung his small bag over his shoulders and ran.

"Good! You don't joke like that!" Sakura said angrily. Eriol chuckled. "Sure. So, why are we here?" he said it in such a sly manner you are 99.999999% sure he knew why he was here. "Clow took over Sakura's voice, and pulled her into the Realm of Reflections," Touya explained briefly. Eriol smiled again. "Kaho-chan? Do you mind?" His partner bowed quickly and stepped back into the portal.

"Kinomoto Sakura. You should not know what you have said, but it is very important that you do. Once you're here, you cannot leave. Even if you defeat your double in the duel, you still cannot leave. Do I make myself clear?" Eriol said extremely strict sounding. Sakura stared at him blankly for a moment, then whimpered. "Wh – WHA?! I can't leave?" Eriol nodded. "Well…" Sakura got up and charged at him. "Well what?! Can I leave?! I want to go home and see father again!"

"Well," Eriol began again; clearing is throat as if to say no more interruptions, "you can, on one condition. That you do what Clow assigned you here to do. He assigned you here to find him, and free your guardians, and your –"

"My mother?" Sakura asked eagerly.

Eriol glared. "Yes, and your mother. Can you do that, Sakura-san? Can you do that?" Sakura bowed her head. "Yes, Eriol-kun. I can do that. But only if I have the help of my friends… and… Tomoyo."

Tomoyo drew her breath. "So… I'm not a friend?" Tomoyo whimpered and cast a glance at Touya, meeting eyes with him. "No, Tomoyo-chan. You are not a friend."

Tomoyo scrunched up her face, but loosened it again, trying not to cry too hard for her own good. "You are not a friend, Tomoyo; you are a lover."

The dark haired girl pulled a Sakura and stared blankly at her best friend's face. "I…?" she said, not knowing what else to say. "I… Sakura-chan, I love you!" and she rushed at the brown haired girl and wrapped her arms around her. "I don't know why I never saw it before…" Sakura began. "But now I know it. I love you, Tomoyo-chan."

Shaoran froze. He heard Sakura's voice echo. He was in her bedroom, about to cautiously step into the mirror land, when he heard her voice. How could she? He thought… he thought she loved him. Or was it the other way round? He loved her nobody said she loved him. But it tore him anyway. But… if Sakura would be happy with Tomoyo, she would be.
