Rating: PG13 for use of cuss words.
Summary: Everything is normal since Sakura came back. Keetra comes back, but she has a job to do. This time, it's to arrest Eriol. When Eriol is granted a trial, w/ Keetra representing him, Sakura and company offer to help prove their friend innocent. Now, it's a race against time for Eriol, cuz if the trial is lost, he will lose his magical powers and all of Clow Reed's memories.
Keetra:: hey people. That's right! I got so many reviewers asking for a sequel to Friend or Foe that I decided to put my head together and come up with one for you guys! This may not be as action-packed as Friend or Foe but I gonna try to make it as interesting. I got so few reviews on my other fic! Please! read my other fic, What If. It's really good and it very much S+S in chapter 3. If anything, it a but-load of laughs at the end.
Kero:: Ok, Keetra, stop babbling and write the fic.
Keetra:: I had to bring him with me didn't I?
Kero:: Yep!
Keelah:: And me. though I not sure why I did. I already know what you have in mind so far and I not like it.
Keetra:: Yea I know. But I like writing it.
Kero:: So write it already!
Keetra:: Ok. Can I just thank the people who reviewed the last chapter of friend or foe then write it?
Kero:: Ok. Just write it! I wanna read it! I love reading your fics.
Keelah:: You just like the pudding
Kero:: You bet!
Keetra:: Ugh! Special arigatous to the people who reviewed last chapter of Friend or Foe!
Azure Rosas:: Ok, Azure-chan, be happy cuz I have written the sequel you asked for. I loved the S+S I wrote at the end too. I am hopeless romantic so I thought of a way that I would wanna be told and that kinda came out. But I like it a lot. Thanks for reviewing! You the best!
SailorJamie:: you probably read past chapter five by now ::notices that there are no further reviews:: but I thought I'd just say thanks for reviewing anyway. Arigatou!
Pochacco:: LOL. And to think, people say I have to sense of humor. I did that spur of the moment and laughed myself silly writing it. Glad ya like it. As you can see, yes there is a sequel. I'll keep it up as long as I can. I have a lotta other ideas I need to type as well. Most of them short and cute like "what if" was. Arigatou for reviewing! BTW, you so lazy! ^_^
Alexandra-chan:: ok, ok, the sequel is made. Sheesh. No need to get crazy. I thought you'd like the Sakura back to life thing. Let's just say it a little gomen ne for all those beep beep beeeeeeeeep things. ^^ arigatou!
Monique:: YAY! New reviewer! ::does a little dance then blushes as Keetra and Kero stare at her:: What? Ok, so I had three sodas and I on a sugar and caffeine high. Gimme a break! ::turns back to Monique. Arigatou for reviewing! Hope you enjoy the sequel as much as you did the original.
Kem:: ::falls on the floor laughing:: hahaha. Arigatou, Kem-chan! I still have that comic you made by the way. Still obsessed with the tako taco thing huh? I had a friend over when I saw your review and had to explain it to her. It wasn't very funny to her (she got a little grossed out actually) but I liked it. It was a great pick-me-up after a very boring day.
Azure-chan (again):: you reviewed twice?! Wow. Arigatou! I thought the character profiles would help. And you right, Stimp IS a suck up. ^_^
Kerei Crystal:: YAY! Another new reviewer! ::dances again: while Keelah and Kero step away from her:: ok, so I on a MAJOR caffeine high. But I very happy. New fic! new reviewer! Kero: get on with the thank you already! Keetra: ok, thanks for reviewing! Enjoy the sequel!
Azalea:: another new reviewer! ::Kero and Keelah restrain her before she dances again.:: Kero: (panting from exhaustion) Glad you liked the chef. We got a laugh outta reading her type it. And boy am I glad you the last reviewer! Arigatou for reviewing and for being the last one!
Keetra (breaking free of the two of them):: Now to the fic!

Chapter one: The Arrest
*Sakura's POV *
Ohayo, Mitski-sensei!
Not a lot has happened in the three years since I last saw you. I am now a senior in high school, along with everyone else, and I still hate math. I probably would've failed Trig last year if Syaoran-kun hadn't helped me. He was recommended for an advanced math class, demo, he turned it down so that he could be in the same class as me. Syaoran-kun is so sweeeeeeeeet! We've been going out for three years now, ever since we admitted our feelings towards each other. Syaoran-kun did give the Syaoran Bear (for that is its name) to me that night. Not that Onii-chan was thrilled about it.
Onii-chan finally moved away 2 yrs ago. He now lives in an apartment house a block away with Yukito-san. He comes home once and a while. Most of the time Yukito-san is with him. It gets crowded with me, Otou-san, Syaoran- kun, Onii-chan, and Yukito-san there. Once, Tomoyo-chan came over as well so we had to sit in the living room since there were not enough chairs.
Oh! Did I tell you? Tomoyo-chan and Eriol-kun are dating as well! It's been about 6 months for them now and Tomoyo-chan is as crazy with him as she was with me. She keeps looking through her old videos of me changing the Clow cards to Sakura cards. Eriol-kun showed her where he was during each of them and she is always peering closely at the screen trying to find him.
I haven't seen Keetra since I came back. She said we would see each other again, though so I have to believe her.
One more thing you should know. I've been having strange dreams again. I'm in a large room that is filled with people. They all have strange auras surrounding them, and many of them have this cold-hearted feeling. They all seen to be avoiding me. Suddenly, a dog's sad howl can be heard and I turn my gaze to its source. Near the front, on a balcony, is Arcanemon; sitting on his haunches, wings spread to their full length, howling like a wolf to the moon. Then, a strong flapping can be heard on the other side of the room and all of the crowd turns towards it. On another balcony there is a dolphin with wings, which it is strongly flapping. It opens its small mouth and emits a shrill screech. The small sounds from the crowd are instantly hushed. The two creatures turn to the front of the room, as do the crowd and I. There, in a large chair, is Clow Reed. His eyes meet mine. He says my name softly then slowly starts to disappear. I want to do something, anything, to help him but I can't. I can only stand there."Remember your spell, Sakura-chan." He says to me, still fading away. "No matter what, just remember, everything will be alright." Then his eyes turn from mine and look at a figure hiding in the shadows. I can't see anything from him yet except for his evil grin. And there, the dream ends. I don't know what it means and neither does Kero-chan. I hope that I can figure it out son though.
*Normal POV*
Sakura pauses, her hands over the keyboard of the laptop that her father got her for Christmas last year. Typing on it always seems to help her relax, which is why she was typing a letter to Mitski-sensei. It didn't seem to be helping her today. Sakura sighs deeply.
Kero pushes open his drawer and looks out at her, worried.
"Daijobou-ka, Sakura?"
"Hai, Kero-chan. I was just thinking."
Sakura presses the power button on the keyboard and the screen turns blank. She grabs her purse and walks out of the room, calling back.
"I'm going out, Kero-chan. I'll be back later."
"Where are ya going?"
"Just out." Sakura says, closing the door behind her.
Kero sighs. "Sakura." (::It's taken me this long to realize that Kero does not put the surnames at the end of names. And actually, neither does Syaoran! Ah! Too many things to remember! Keelah:: ::shakes her head sadly::)
~*~*~*~
Sakura stops at the entrance to the Penguin King Park. So much had happened here, memories of many happening residing at various places within this park. As if moving by themselves, her feet walk over to the slide, bringing the rest of her body with them. Upon reaching it, she climbs the long ladder to the top. Though partially obstructed, her view is far and clear. Just looking out makes her feel a little more in control, as if the world is at her fingertips. Sakura sits with her legs tucked close to her, oblivious to everything.
"Someone's deep in thought." A soothing male voice whispers lightly into her ear.
Giving a startled shriek, Sakura tries to turn around to see the startler, but only succeeds in unbalancing her body, causing her to slide down the long slide face-first. Landing on the ground hard, she remains still, facing away from the slide.
Filled with sudden worry, Syaoran climbs the last couple stairs to the top and slides down after her. Just as he reaches the bottom, Syaoran plants his feet and hops over her body. Landing in a crouch, he leans forward anxiously and takes her shoulders in his hands. Tears fill his amber eyes, complimenting the Oh-God-What-Have-I-Done expression on his face.
"Daijobou-ka?"
"Hai." She replies, sitting up.
"Yokata." Syaoran sighs.
He leans close and pecks her cheek, near the ear, and whispers,
"Gomen ne. I frightened you."
"Daijobou., I wasn't paying attention."
Syaoran sits down beside her and pulls her into his arms.
"It's that dream again. Isn't it?"
"Mm" Sakura nods.
Syaoran buries his face in her hair. He wishes there was something he could do or say that would make his Sakura's eyes glow happily again. Demo, he doesn't understand her dream any more than she does.
"Would you like to have dinner at my place?"
"Hai."
Some of the old sparkle returns to her eyes at the thought of spending more time with her Syaoran. The couple stand and walk out of the park, his arm around her waist.
~*~*~*~ Next day ~*~*~*~
(Beepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbeepbee pbeepbeepbeep)
"Ugh!"
Sakura reaches up, grabs the same old annoying alarm clock and does her usual wrestling routine until the infernal beeping stops. (::If that were my alarm, I woulda smashed it by now. Have you heard her Japanese alarm? That thing is annoying! I hate that thing!::) After placing the clock back on the shelf, she lays back down, thinking of the dinner with Syaoran last night. Wei was there but had thought they were eating at Sakura's. All three of them worked together on dinner and had a mixture of Japanese and Chinese foods. During dinner, they had talked and laughed, which Wei had eventually joined in on. Afterwards, Syaoran had walked her home. Sakura touches her lips where Syaoran had kissed her before he had turned back to walk home. It was not the first time, but she still gets a tingly sensation every time.
"Syaoran-kun." She mutters.
(Ding Dong)
"Hai!"
Sakura jumps out of bed and rushes downstairs to open the door. Standing on the doorstep is Syaoran, dressed for school.
"Ohayo"
"Ohayo, Syaoran-kun."
Syaoran looks at her clothes with a slight smile.
"Oversleep again, Sakura?" he asks, trying not to blush.
"Huh?" She looks down at her nightwear. "HOE! Gomen ne, Syaoran-kun. I'll be ready in a minute."
Sakura turns and dashes up the stairs, leaving Syaoran in the doorway shaking his head. Fujitaka walks into the hall from the kitchen.
"Would you like some breakfast while you are here, Li-san?"
"As usual."
Syaoran walks in, takes off his shoes, and goes into the kitchen. Soon after sitting down, Fujitaka puts a plate in front of him.
"There you are."
"Arigatou."
Turning back to the table, he says grace and starts to eat. Couple seconds later, Sakura's hurried footsteps are heard on the stairs and she comes into the kitchen. After hanging her backpack on a chair, she sits down across from Syaoran.
"Ohayo Sakura-san."
"Ohayo, Otou-san."
She turns back to the table.
"Itatakimasu! ("Let's eat!" or, "I'm eating". It's the Japanese grace.)
She picks up her chopsticks and starts bolting her food.
"Slow down Sakura. I don't want you to get a stomach ache." Syaoran comments, smiling slightly.
"Demo, we're gonna be late." Sakura replies between mouthfuls of food.
"Iie."
Sakura stops eating and looks up at him, a confused look upon her face.
"I came a little early so you wouldn't have to rush."
"Hoe?"
Sakura looks over at the clock. It was about 10 minutes before Syaoran usually arrives. Fujitaka smiles at the confused look on his daughter's face.
"A-arigatou."
She is very, very confused now but she picks up her chopsticks and begins eating at a regular pace.
After they finish eating (5 minutes early! Syaoran's a genius!) they both grab their school stuff and leave, calling back their farewells to Fujitaka and Kero. Well, Sakura called back to Kero. Syaoran kinda mumbled it.
~*~*~*~ Somewhere along the way (::boy am I descriptive!::) ~*~*~*~
"Ready for the math test today, Sakura?"
"Hoe! Don't remind me!"
"You did well on the review I gave you."
"Hai, demo, you were helping me."
Syaoran puts an arm around her shoulders and gives her a reassuring hug.
"Daijobou. Just believe in yourself."
Sakura leans her head on his shoulder.
"Hai. Arigatou, Syaoran-kun."
"K-A-W-A-I-I-!!!!!!!!!!" (::guess who?::)
Startled, the couple look around for the source of the voice. Tomoyo is leaning out the window of her limo, video camera in-hand and recording. After much blushing, sweat dropping and arm removing; Sakura walks over to her friend, Syaoran following closely behind.
"Ohayo, Tomoyo-chan. Oh!" Sakura notices a familiar figure sitting beside her. "Ohayo, Eriol-kun."
Syaoran's head jerks up a little in surprise at this. He's still a little edgy around Eriol even though Eriol is now dating Tomoyo. Eriol joins Tomoyo at the window.
"Ohayo, Sakura-san. Ohayo, Li-san."
"Ohayo" Syaoran replies, refusing to meet Eriol's eyes.
Tomoyo smiles slightly, noticing this, then turns back to Sakura.
"You're early today, Sakura-chan."
"Hai. Syaoran-kun came early today to pick me up so that we wouldn't be late."
Tomoyo smiles as Syaoran blushes slightly.
"Tomoyo-chan, Eriol-kun, do you want to walk with us to school? It's not far ahead." Sakura asks.
"Hai. We'd love to." Tomoyo replies. 'This will give me more chances to tape Sakura-chan. Ohohohoho!'
For a split second, Sakura wonders why her friend a kinda star-eyed look on her face. This is replaced by her usual genkiness as the door of the limo opens and Tomoyo, followed by Eriol, step out. The limo drives away, leaving the four friends on the sidewalk of a now-deserted street.
"So, Sakura-chan, ready for the math test today?" Tomoyo asks.
"HOE!"
"I'm sure you'll do fine Sakura." A semi-familiar voice replies. A voice she has not heard for three years.
"Keetra-chan!" Sakura replies as the purple haired figure steps out from behind a nearby tree.
Sakura starts to run to Keetra to hug her but stops when she sees the sad- yet-determined look on her friend's face.
"What's wrong? " Sakura asks her.
Keetra does not reply but simply walks over to Eriol, stopping in front of him. Struggling to keep the tears in her eyes from falling, she says the next words forcefully and authoritatively, as everyone stares at her in shock.
"Hiragizawa Eriol, I hereby place you under arrest by order of the Counsel of K."
~*~*~*~ End chapter one ~*~*~*~
Keetra:: well, wadya think? Should I even bother continuing it? I wanted to do this on another series but couldn't come up with a reason that any pother people would be arrested. Eriol was just too perfect to pass up. ^_^
Keelah:: Syaoran aint the only one with a grudge against Eriol for hitting on Sakura.
Keetra:: that's right! There's a lotta people out there who didn't like it.
Keelah:: ::mumbles:: she missed my point.
Keetra:: ::whispers to audience:: actually I got it quite well. ::back in normal voice:: anyway, please review! I had way too much fun writing this chapter. I made absolutely no mistakes in it! That gotta be a record. Also, my idea for why Eriol is arrested is kinda lame, so any ideas would be nice. It has to have something to do with dimensions. Right now I have that he combined two of them and that lame. So, please! The more extreme the better! ^_^ Let's really get Eriol in trouble here. If I get enough, maybe I can do more than one, if I can't decide.
Kero:: She'd love that. ::turns to Keetra:: Can I have pudding now?
Keetra:: Fine ::gives Kero pudding and he flies of saying something along the lines of "YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY! Pudding! Pudding! Pudding!!"::
Keetra and Keelah:: ::sweatdrop:: R+R!

Startled, the couple look around for the source of the voice. Tomoyo is leaning out the window of her limo, video camera in-hand and recording. After much blushing, sweat dropping and arm removing; Sakura walks over to her friend, Syaoran following closely behind.
"Ohayo, Tomoyo-chan. Oh!" Sakura notices a familiar figure sitting beside her. "Ohayo, Eriol-kun."
Syaoran's head jerks up a little in surprise at this. He's still a little edgy around Eriol even though Eriol is now dating Tomoyo. Eriol joins Tomoyo at the window.
"Ohayo, Sakura-san. Ohayo, Li-san."
"Ohayo" Syaoran replies, refusing to meet Eriol's eyes.
Tomoyo smiles slightly, noticing this, then turns back to Sakura.
"You're early today, Sakura-chan."
"Hai. Syaoran-kun came early today to pick me up so that we wouldn't be late."
Tomoyo smiles as Syaoran blushes slightly.
"Tomoyo-chan, Eriol-kun, do you want to walk with us to school? It's not far ahead." Sakura asks.
"Hai. We'd love to." Tomoyo replies. 'This will give me more chances to tape Sakura-chan. Ohohohoho!'
For a split second, Sakura wonders why her friend a kinda star-eyed look on her face. This is replaced by her usual genkiness as the door of the limo opens and Tomoyo, followed by Eriol, step out. The limo drives away, leaving the four friends on the sidewalk of a now-deserted street.
"So, Sakura-chan, ready for the math test today?" Tomoyo asks.
"HOE!"
"I'm sure you'll do fine Sakura." A semi-familiar voice replies. A voice she has not heard for three years.
"Keetra-chan!" Sakura replies as the purple haired figure steps out from behind a nearby tree.
Sakura starts to run to Keetra to hug her but stops when she sees the sad- yet-determined look on her friend's face.
"What's wrong? " Sakura asks her.
Keetra does not reply but simply walks over to Eriol, stopping in front of him. Struggling to keep the tears in her eyes from falling, she says the next words forcefully and authoritatively, as everyone stares at her in shock.
"Hiragizawa Eriol, I hereby place you under arrest by order of the Counsel of K."
~*~*~*~ End chapter one ~*~*~*~
Keetra:: well, wadya think? Should I even bother continuing it? I wanted to do this on another series but couldn't come up with a reason that any pother people would be arrested. Eriol was just too perfect to pass up. ^_^
Keelah:: Syaoran aint the only one with a grudge against Eriol for hitting on Sakura.
Keetra:: that's right! There's a lotta people out there who didn't like it.
Keelah:: ::mumbles:: she missed my point.
Keetra:: ::whispers to audience:: actually I got it quite well. ::back in normal voice:: anyway, please review! I had way too much fun writing this chapter. I made absolutely no mistakes in it! That gotta be a record. Also, my idea for why Eriol is arrested is kinda lame, so any ideas would be nice. It has to have something to do with dimensions. Right now I have that he combined two of them and that lame. So, please! The more extreme the better! ^_^ Let's really get Eriol in trouble here. If I get enough, maybe I can do more than one, if I can't decide.
Kero:: She'd love that. ::turns to Keetra:: Can I have pudding now?
Keetra:: Fine ::gives Kero pudding and he flies of saying something along the lines of "YAY! YAY! YAY! YAY! Pudding! Pudding! Pudding!!"::
Keetra and Keelah:: ::sweatdrop:: R+R!
