::Chapter 8::

'Tick-Tock' Eriol's grandfather clock was ticking by the minutes neither going too fast or too slow, dinner had been a success and Eriol was back to sitting in his favorite red chair. Once Yukito and Touya arrived, he reflected they would bring the book…he knew that what he was looking for was contain in those contents because, his last memories of Clow was of reciting an incantation.

"ανοίγω the θόλος και εισέρχομαι έναs κόσμοs ; επανορθώνω the παρελθών επιδιορθώνω missteps. πότε δύο ψυχή ευθυγραμμίζω. φυσαρμόνικα pervades."

It was in Greek, but there was more to it…Clow always kept a double meaning behind everything. It mentioned a vault which would be the tomb yet…two souls? He wasn't going to find anything else by just sitting around without more clues, so he sat up and decided to visit his garden. He was an avid gardener and he kept his own greenhouse, it looked more recreational and he had added a maze inside with tall hedges.

Kneeling before his roses and grabbing a pair of gloves he decided that he should prune them, each withered leaf was like his life in a way. Working carefully and meticulously he cut a few pieces of wire and twisted them around the stems of the rose. Keeping them in line and straight, each flower deserved an equal opportunity to light. The life-giving force of the sun. Clow molded him but not for life or really his own life, but more for the darkness…'what reason is there for life where there is no hope of death?' He was working so deeply that he didn't notice the aura approaching him and was caught completely off guard.

Tomoyo had only wanted to take a short walk, to exercise a bit from the large dinner Nakuru provided. That is...until she discovered the gardens. Compared to the rest of the arid place it was like an oasis, she had the misfortune to wander into the maze though. Walking, turning a corner, rounding the bend….wait she was sure she passed this spot before and the minute before that too. Placing a hand over her eyes she decided that she would blindly step in whatever direction she was in. Emerging from the hedges Tomoyo had a look of pure happiness etched in her face 'Finally I'm free from that bloody maze' she exclaimed over her head. She was about to skip in joy, when she saw Eriol-kun kneeling before his roses in a look of concentration. Giggling she never knew Eriol-kun to look so serious like that before. Her eyes gleamed with fun when she realized Eriol-kun didn't seem to know she was right behind him. Softly tiptoeing she decided that Eriol-kun deserved a scare for once, and jumped him.

A resonating scream was heard and uncontrollable laughter responded back.

"Tomoyo!" Eriol yelled with a hint of anger, he was about to storm off when she grabbed his arm. "Iie. Eriol-kun your garden's maze took me a long time to get out of and I'm not letting you leave unless I get to leave with you." She pouted up to him giving her best pleading look. He melted…those eyes he couldn't even keep what little anger he felt for her. Relenting but...he didn't want her to know that yet he walked over to his trees, keeping her presence in mind he knew she was avidly following him just in case he decided to run off. "Ne Tomoyo…do you still like Sakuras?" he placed his hand on the tree as if feeling it's life slowly living not hurrying. Tomoyo started, for a moment she thought he meant Sakura-chan and then she knew that was the reaction he wanted to see from her. Smirking she would play his little game too then…she ran past the other trees until she found the right one and climbed it. Eriol chased after her, he didn't mean for her to run away until he noticed the tree she was hanging from…a plum blossom. She called down to him "Did you miss Tomoyo?" smiling to his eyes for once he answered with a simple "Hai."
