At the hotel. . .

'I'd better get her some medicine,' Syaoran thought. 'But what if she gets up while I'm gone? I know! I'll leave a note! I'm a genius!'

With that Syaoran scribbled a note:

Sakura, Gone to pick up some medicine for you. Stay in bed. I'll be back soon. THE DOOM did something to you and made you sick. So don't worry about me. Get some rest. ~Syaoran

Then Syaoran went to the nearest drug store.

At the store. . .

"Ah- I'd like something for someone with a cold," Syaoran said.

"Family, best friend or girlfriend?" asked the clerk.

"Ah-ah none," Syaoran replied.

"A young man like you wouldn't be doing this if it wasn't like that. It must be a girl you like and haven't told yet."

"Ah. . .ah. . ." Syaoran stammered.

"Here," the clerk said. "That'll be $7.58."

"Ah, thanks," said Syaoran, handing over the money.

Syaoran was just about to leave.

"Oh, and young man," the clerk began, " better tell her before it's too late."

"Oh-ah sure," Syaoran smiled at the man and went back to the hotel.

Back in the room. . .

Syaoran eased open the door, silently, padded in and closed it just as silently. He then proceeded to pour out the medicine for Sakura when. . .

"Hi Syaoran!"

"Ack!" said a very startled Syaoran.

Sakura was sitting up in bed reading a book.

"I thought I told you to get some rest," Syaoran said irritably.

"I am resting, I'm in bed and everything," Sakura said.

"Resting is sleeping," said Syaoran.

"Not, this is resting!" Sakura retorted.

"NOT!" yelled Syaoran.

"This is resting baka!"

"It is n- who are you calling baka?!"

"You! Duh!"

"I am not baka!"

"Well-" 'wait, he's trying to take care of me. Sakura=baka.' she thought.

"I-I'm sorry Syaoran," she began, "this cold is making me cranky. ^_^;"

"I, uh, um, I'm, ah, sorry too then," Syaoran apologized, blushing. "H-here."

"Thank you Syaoran- blech!" Sakura made a face, "This stuff is terrible." _

"Hehe, then get some _sleep_," said Syaoran playfully.

"rrrrrr. Fine, good night," said Sakura pulling the covers over her head, just as playfully.

Then the medicine began to work (fast ne?) and Sakura began to dream. . . .

Sakura's dream. . .

"Where. . .am. . .I?" Sakura ran through the darkness.

"Sakura. . .sakura. . .sakura. . ."

"Who's there?" she asked.

"Sakura," a voice called.

She whirled around.

"Eriol?!"

It _was_ Eriol, he had Spinel Sun on his right and Ruby Moon on his left.

"A great evil is in this world, Sakura. You must seal it away. . ." said Eriol, before fading away.

"Wait! Eriol!" Sakura began.

Just then another figure appeared.

"D-Dad?!"

It was Kinomoto Fujitaka alright.

"I love you Sakura, you are my precious little girl, and be careful, Hiragizawa-kun is right. . ."

"Come back!" she cried, but he had already fadedaway, only to be replaced by Touya.

"T-T-T-Touya?"

"Careful kaijuu," was all he said.

"Hey!," but before she could say anything else. . .

"Yukito? H-Hoe?"

He smiled and turned into Yue and Kero appeared beside him.

"Be careful Sakura, Card Mistress," they said together.

"What are you warning me about?!"

Then her mother appeared.

"M-Mom?"

"Sakura, my darling daughter, I have faith in you. . ."

"Wait! MOM!"

"Be strong. . ."

Then all Sakura's friends, including Tomoyo and Meilin, appeared and smiled, saying comforting words, then they just disappeared.

"_WHAT_ IS GOING ON!!!" Sakura yelled.

"Good Question. . ." a voice hissed.

"Wh-Who are you?" Sakura asked cautiously.

"I am your destroyer," the voice replied.

As the voice faded, Syaoran appeared.

"I _believe_ in you, Sakura. We can do this," Syaoran took her hand, smiling one of his rare smiles at her.

In the hotel room. . .

Syaoran was sitting by Sakura's bed. Suddenly, she took his hand and mumbled, "You're right, Syaoran."

This succeeded in turning Syaoran very, like _really_ red. Sakura slowly opened ehr eyes, and realized what she was doing.

"Oh!:" she exclaimed, " Gomen-nasai Syaoran!" (Red faced)

"Ahhh. . . It's okay Sakura," Syaoran replied, "Were you having a nice dream?"

"Ah. . .Well, I think it was a prophetic dream. . ."

^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*

". . . and that's what happened," Sakura finished.

"Whoah! We'd better fin and capture that card soon," Syaoran said.

"Yeah. . ." Sakura trailed off.

"So, still feeling sick?" Syaoran asked.

"Nope," Sakura replied.

"I _told_ you sleep was the cure," Syaoran said haughtily.

"Syaoran," Sakura began.

"What?"

"Shut up," she replied, throwing a pillow at him.
