Ch. 7: I wish you were here with me

"Shaoran-kun. Why couldn't you be with me? Why did the card have to kill you? I would have figured out the card's identity sooner or later." Sakura said feeling very lonely.

"Poor Sakura-san. I know exactly how she feels. Losing Nadeshiko-chan was heart breaking. The only reason I didn't kill myself was because of Sakura- san and Touya-san. I wish Shaoran-san could be here to make her happy." Said Fujitaka feeling sorry for his daughter.

"Why can't Eriol-kun and Li-kun be here? It would make Sakura-chan and I very happy. I wish there was a way to at least talk to them." Said Tomoyo crying like crazy.

"I have no sympathy for Daidouji and Kinomoto. Who needs love? Love only makes you weak." Said the card feeling no sympathy for the two girls. Immediately the card went away.

"Hope." Said Eriol.

What does he mean by hope? Asked Shaoran to himself. "What do you mean by hope?" asked Shaoran.

"Sakura can use the Hope Card to speak to us. She can only do that if she has hope." Said Eriol.

"Why don't we just find another way to contact her?" asked now a curious Shaoran.

"There is no other way. Using Hope is the only way." Said Eriol coolly.

"Oh. Is there any way we can contact them?" asked Shaoran.

"There is one way. It's very limited though. We have to use our magic. It will last for about one minute." Said Eriol.

"Let's do it then. Let's tell Sakura to use hope." Shaoran ordered.

"OK. You will speak since she is your girlfriend."

Sakura was still crying about Shaoran. She now only had three days to capture the card. Sakura heard out of nowhere Shaoran's voice.

"Sakura. I can't talk for very long. Use the Hope Card to speak with us. Remember, Hope will only work if you have hope." Shaoran said beginning to lose time.

"OK Shaoran. Hoshi no chikara o himeshi kagi yo! Shin no sugata no ware o mae ni shimese. Keiyaku no moto Sakura ga mejiru... Release! Hope!"

The Hope Card went to do its job, but since Sakura had so much hope that Shaoran and Eriol came back to life.

"Sakura-chan. You brought us back to life." Said Shaoran while seeing Eriol smirk. "You knew we would come back?

"Yes I did. I knew Sakura had enough hope to bring us back. She combined her love for you, her magic and her hope we will come back to bring us here. I told you if Sakura used the Hope, we would be able to talk to her. I'm very sure I said that."

"Eriol-kun! You're alive!" said a merry Tomoyo. "You're really alive!"

"Shaoran-kun. You don't know how happy I am to see you. I didn't think you would come back before I die." Said Sakura hugging Shaoran.

"I missed you to. I love you more than anything in the world." Said Shaoran gaining his cool back.

"You are very precious to me Shaoran-kun. I don't know what I would do if you weren't here with me." Said Sakura sobbing.

"Why are you crying." Said Shaoran worried he did something to upset her.

"I'm so happy you're back, that's all." Cried Sakura some more.

"Hmm. Sakura managed to break my spell. That's not good. She gets stronger everyday. Now she has the advantage. She has her magical friends with her." Said the card now getting very nervous.

The card went to spy on her a little closer.

That's the end of chapter 7. I know. I know. It was too short. I'm starting to get writer's block. I almost made this chapter as long as chapter 1! Be happy I managed to think of some creative ideas to make chapter seven longer! Please R+R. I promise chapter 10(the final chapter) will be really, really long. Ja ne.
