Chapter 18: With You I Belong ( second last chapter!!)
~*~ Normal View ~*~
"Stop where you are you three!" A voice echoed from the hallway…it was Hak-sum.
*~* Hak-sum's POV *~*
That asshole of a boy…he has let me down for the final time! I cannot have him running around while he is unstable…I must get him back into his study and place another spell on him…Why did I pick such a insane boy?…why didn't I pick a sane person…why?…
I was panicking when I couldn't sense the boy's energy…so I ran from my study to reach his room but then suddenly a burst of energy came back. "So the boy is stable?…good…I won't have to place that spell on him…" I said to myself hoping that I wouldn't have too…cause doing these kinds of spells really tired me out. I then felt a pink aura pass by and realized that the angel was out from her room running around…Not a good sign so I decided to run after her. I turned the corner and saw that the pink angel was in the arms of that Chinese boy…and in his arms was the only way I could use magic…that insanely kid that drove me to the brink of insanity myself…
"Great…now I got to both my power sources back! But that Chinese boy…mmMmm I can almost taste his magic powers as well….I will see to it that I also get this boy's strength…then Clow Reed…we will meet…again…and face off to show who has the most magic…And I am certain that I will be the victor this time…as well as the lucky man to earn the young angel's heart!
I shouted out and hoped that the trio heard me. They turned around and looked straight into my eyes… " yes…lovely now to do away with the meddlesome brat.." I thought to myself. "Once he's out of the way…I can reach my goal in taking the magic powers…" I walked closer to the three grinning like a manic. Of course to them…I probably was a manic…but did I really care?...not really.
After all, everything I wanted…was deep inside each of them…the magic powers that would help me defeat my old master. I'll show him…finally once and for all!
~*~ Normal view ~*~
Sakura slowly shifted closer to Syaoran and placed her right hand into her pocket. No one was watching her movements so she pulled out a single card. "Firery…" Sakura's eyes glinted with excitement and waited for the first move.
Hak-sum drew ever so close to the three. Matt's mouth was grinning so widely that a frog would be able to jump in it and he wouldn't have noticed.
"Master Hak-sum! Are we going to take the powers now?...I thought we'd do it after the ceremony!!" Matt said almost jumping up and down. Matt had secretly been practising some magic on his own…so he could overthrow Hak-sum and take Sakura as his own. But his plan was slowly coming undone when Syaoran had appeared. His motive was lost. But still he grinned. If he couldn't have Sakura all to himself…No one would.
"Out of the way now Matt...Prepare the ceremony room. We will continue as planned before this brat came." Hak-sum said pulling out a key with silver wings at the top. The key was plainly made out of magic and flew from Hak-sum's hand onto Matt's. Syaoran made a grab for it but was too late. Matt grinned again and ran off the opposite direction.
Syaoran cursed under his breathe and turned his attention back to Hak-sum. Hak-sum smiled again and reached out his hand towards Sakura he began to move his fingers back towards him * Kero chan: Think of it like this, you know when you see a kitty and you move your fingers saying here kitty kitty! Yeah…like that…that's what Hak-sum is doing…* Then a strange aura came surrounding Sakura. She gave a shout and was soon wrapped around the blackish blue aura.
"Perfect…you boy…are next!" Hak-sum said giving a warning to Syaoran not to interfere. But Syaoran couldn't watch his Sakura suffer and called his orb, turning it into a sword ran straight into Hak-sum making him lose eye contact with Sakura and breaking the aura connection. Sakura dropped landing on her feet and tugged her chain around her neck. It was the Clow Key * or Sakura…key…not sure what to call it at the moment * She then said the ancient verse and out from the key came the beautiful wand with the star on top. She fingered the card hidden in her hand and out came beautiful flames surround Hak-sum.
"ARGH! You…STOP THIS!! SHOU *…hmmm it's suppose to mean Water in Cantonese…I think I'm sure I spelt it wrong…but no matter just think of him saying water instead! * At this water came spurting out from his hand and doused the fire surrounding him.
"FLY!" shouted Sakura. Wings sprouted from her back and flew higher. Out from her pocket she drew another card as she watched Syaoran beating hak-sum with his sword * aww…hehehe * she glanced at the lining of the card. It read Arrow. …. " Arrow…Good." She called forth the ancient power and suddenly an arrow and bow came to her hands. She took aim ….and shot the arrow hitting…
*Soooo…this is where the whole thing ends… man am I so tired…you have no idea what plans I have for this story…but unbelievable…I forget what happens! Hahah so do you guys think I should seriously continue this story?...lolx I bet you guys do…I can tell by your faces! *points at readers faces!* Look at them…they are all confused! Bet you all thinking the same thing: " What happened?! What did Sakura shot?..." Well to answer that…She accidentally hit Syaoran… oppies! Ahahah If I did that everyone would kill me! Hahah Sakura would never do anything that would hurt her dear Syaoran-kun…hehheeh well…On with the story I guess…but really I don't understand why you even read this! I think this writer's block is seriously getting to my head!! SO…sorry if this chapter seriously sucks!! *
She took aim and shot the arrow. "AGG" Hak-sum said holding his heart. The arrow still piercing through the clothing, he growled and looked up. There was his magic source…he smiled again and leaped up. Jumping over Syaoran and pinned Sakura down to the ground. She screamed and was quickly silenced as Hak-sum placed his lips on top of his. She closed her eyes for they became too heavy to keep them up. Hak-sum smiled and started to drain her power. But broke away saying to himself, " I want to save you for later. You have power that tastes like strawberries…you are very sweet." Hak-sum pulled the arrow out revealing his wound completely healed. Syaoran was running towards Hak-sum sword drawn ready to attack. Hak-sum lifted Sakura up; using his free hand he pulled his cape and disappeared.
"No! Sakura!...Damn him…damn Hak-sum….I'll get you back!" Syaoran said running towards the way Matt had left before.
It wasn't too long before Syaoran caught up with Matt. Matt was slowly strolling his way towards the Ceremony room. Thinking it best to hide from Matt, Syaoran hid in the shadows and followed the boy closely.
"It won't be long now…Sakura will be with me instead of that no body. We'll be perfect together!" Matt said swinging the key around on his finger. He reached a brass double door with a single key hole. He slipped the key in and turned the knobbly handle and went in, leaving the key in the key hole.
"What an idiot! He left the key inside the slot!" Syaoran came out from the shadows and leapt to his feet. He ran towards the door, taking the key he slowly slipped inside the chamber.
~*~ Inside the chamber…Before Matt and Syaoran entered…~*~
There was a flash of light and out from the blinding aura was Hak-sum…still holding in his arms the weakened Sakura. His mouth was widening to a smile. Sakura, still limp and unconscious was placed onto an alter. Hak-sum drew out a magic scroll and recited a chant. Suddenly magically bands surround themselves onto Sakura's wrists and ankles and placed her on a wall.
Sakura's eyes slowly opened. All around her was surroundings that didn't seem familiar to her. "Where am I? Where's Syaoran…" Sakura thought to herself trying to figure out her surroundings…then it clicked her vision from long ago. It was of this place. This very exact place where her vision of her cards had brought her. There was the Hak-sum leaning against a chair writing something furiously on some paper. But Syaoran was no where to be seen. "How long have I been knocked out for?" Sakura thought again. Her cards were still in her pockets and her key was still around her neck. She sighed softly and looked around the room again, trying to think of a plan to help Syaoran and her friends once they came to rescue her.
~*~ Out side of Hak-sum's castle ~*~
"Eriol-kun? Are you sure Syaoran went out to get Sakura on his own?...He isn't that head strong is he?" Tomoyo said worriedly holding a costume she had made for everyone. Kero fluttered on Tomoyo's shoulder and said, "Don't worry about the brat. He'll do fine. I mean he love Mistress Sakura very, very much. I don't think he'll ever abandon her for anything. Tomoyo and Eriol had stopped by at the Kinomoto residence to find Kero-chan. After explaining to both Touya and Mr. Kinomoto, did they finally started on their journey to Hak-sum's castle with Kero as a guardian for Tomoyo.
"Here" Tomoyo said handing Eriol a costume she made for him. "It's to protect you. I don't want to lose you when we go fight in there." Tears started to form in her eyes. She meant every word that she said and Eriol smiled. He looked down at the Japanese girl and wondered what his life would have been like if he never met her. Stepping closer to her, he pulled her into a hug of thanks and put on the costume.
"Here we are…this is the place with the most evil energy within the city." Eriol said surveying what was left of the restaurant that had just begun rebuilding. Kero flew out from behind Tomoyo and transformed into his true self chanting the same spell that Syaoran used to locate Sakura. After moments of waiting Kero turned around and suggested that maybe his powers weren't strong enough to help. He looked down in shame but Tomoyo lifted his head and said, "You did what you could. I'm sure it worked…Just wait and see." And as Tomoyo said this a wisp of wind began to form and a portal opened revealing the same background that Tomoyo had captured on her camera.
"I did it!" Kero said shouting with happiness. Then together the three journeyed into the portal, not knowing what would come in store for them.
~*~ Inside the castle ~*~
From out of the portal did Tomoyo, Eriol and Kero came.
"Are we here?" Kero said, transforming back into his cuter self. Eriol looked around and sighed. "We're here, now let's go and find those two love sick birds."
~Flash back Sakura's pov~
"SAKURA!! Where are you? Please answer us!" Syaoran's voice rang.
"Sakura-chan!! Where are you?? Sakura-chan?" Tomoyo's voice called out as well.
"I'm here! I'm here Syaoran I'm here….Tomoyo-chan…please come save me…I don't want to be here anymore." I opened my eyes and took a deep breath. Windy is bringing my news of the future…Syaoran and Tomoyo must be trying very hard to find a way to help me…I must figure this divination out…what's the next card? Then slowly I chose the card next to windy and turned it over…
The next card I flipped over was the shield card. I felt the aura strengthen and I closed my eyes to see what shield was trying to show me.
I opened my eyes to a future I didn't know of. The walls seemed to loom over me. "Where…where am I? What kind of place is this Shield? Why did you bring me here?" I sighed…I knew shield couldn't talk back to me. What on earth was I thinking …I started walking around. I knew my true self was still in the bedroom unharmed and that my spirit was roaming around in the fortune that shield made.
Then I saw him. Syaoran! He was fighting Hak-sum using all his strength and magic against him. Syaoran! I'm coming! Just wait! I'll help! But as I ran to him with my hand reaching out to touch him, my hand went through. I ran right pass him. I turned around and gasped. Then I saw Syaoran say something. Out from his hands came a magic power…much larger then I have ever seen.
"Syaoran!?" I heard a girl on a wall chained up wearing a pink and black dress which seemed to be made of silk. Oh my god! That…that's me! Hak-sum and Syaoran are fighting but where is Tomoyo?…I know I saw her in the first vision where is she? The vision of me on the wall vanished into another vision. But this time it was of Tomoyo holding Eriol-kun. It seemed like he was beaten pretty badly. Tomoyo was crying, and Eriol-kun was moaning softly. I turned the other way to see what had happened before. I saw Matt's hands in the air. He was chanting. A magic circle was around him. Just like when I use the Sakura cards. "How…how is this all possible?…when did Matt get magic? …Shield. Take me back I don't want to see anymore now."
I opened my eyes and I was back to where I was. I sighed. Thank goodness. That was horrible. I shivered and slowly thought how the two visions connected. Tomoyo and Syaoran were looking for her, which was obvious. Then…do Hak-sum and Matt attack them…for trying to save me? I can understand Hak-sum attacking me…but Matt? I thought…I thought he wouldn't do such a thing. It must be Hak-sum's doing!
I was dreaming again…again with that vision of everyone trying to sacrifice themselves for me…Hak-sum was still there scribbling away at what ever he was doing. I was losing hope…and it seemed that nothing would help me now. Syaoran…I hope you don't come here. I don't want to know what will happen if you get hurt here because of me. Tears started to form again in my eyes and I blinked them back…I didn't want anyone to see me show emotions not now…But as hard as I fought to keep them back they just kept steming until I finally just let them flow. Tears just continued to fall silently onto the floor. Suddenly I heard them, voices from far away telling me everything would be alright. I smiled blinking away what was left of my tears and repeated to myself. "Everything will be alright."
~*~Normal View~*~
"Everything will be alright." Sakura said to herself softly, hoping that Hak-sum wouldn't hear her. But he didn't for he was still absorbed in writing what ever it was he was.
"YES! I've finished…Now my beautiful bride. We will be joined tonight and there's nothing you can do about it." Hak-sum said releasing Sakura from her bonds and touched her lips. Then instantly she dropped onto the floor looking indeed very pale.
Now back to Matthew and Syaoran, they were both approaching the ceremony room quite quickly. Syaoran not wanting to wait any longer to beat the boy up jumped on him and pinned him to the wall that was about 7 feet away from the door that the ceremony room was located.
"ACk! What are you doing here? Aren't you still fight Hak-sum?!" Matt screamed trying to use his strength to push Syaoran away.
"What is this ceremony you plan to do to Sakura?" Syaoran said speaking each word slowly and darkly as Matt continued to squirm under Syaoran's grip. In truth, Matt could have over powered him easily but because Hak-sum was not near him he wasn't able to call upon his dark powers he received from him. So all Matt could do was just stare at the cold brown eyes that belong to his persecutor.
"Li-kun!" a female voice cried from behind him. It was Tomoyo, Eriol and flying close behind them was Kero-chan. Syaoran dropped Matt and turned around giving Matt the time he needed to run to the door.
"TOMOYO? What are you doing here? Hiiragizawa why did you bring her here?! You know she could get hurt…" Syaoran glared but soften his face and ran to the two.
"Thanks for coming here. I need all the help I can get Hak-sum just took Sakura away for some ceremony and Matt…" Syaoran said putting on the costume that Tomoyo gave him, then turned his head to where Matt was and swore.
"We need to stop Hak-sum from draining Sakura's power, now if what you said was true, then the ceremony that Hak-sum must be trying to do is an energy exchange. We have to hurry now because if this ceremony completes Sakura might not survive." Eriol said running towards the door that lead to the ceremony room.
The door opened and there in the middle of the floor was Sakura, looking very pale indeed. Syaoran ran towards her.
Zap
Syaoran flew back and hit Kero-chan who had just transformed in order to lend the group some of his power.
"Thanks Kero." Syaoran muttered and called forth his orb. Eriol shielded Tomoyo and waited for something else to happen. As Syaoran got up again laughter filled the room. Not happy nice laughter that you would share with friends and family, but evil insane laughter that would send chills down a person's back.
"Thank you for coming to my re-birthing celebration! I haven't drained the pretty princess yet…but after I get rid of you she will be mine forever! And there's no way on earth that CLOW-San can stop me! Now I'll have her all to myself. HAHAHHA Clow was a fool to never trust me. He said that she would be the next successor. I can see why. But for her to not have someone to protect her as well…then I'll just have to fit that description. It won't be anyone else but me! Tonight we will be JOINED! And nothing will stop me from making her love me the way I love her!" Hak-sum said running to Sakura and disappearing again, leaving Matt behind to fight the group.
"Now the games are about to start!" Matt said glowing red. Then thrusting a powerful blast he hit Kero and Eriol who in turn got up again and fought. Syaoran cursed again and ran towards a further door that was beyond the ceremony room.
"Syaoran stop! Don't go there! It could be a trap!" Tomoyo said trying to stop Syaoran. But she was held back by Eriol who just blocked another bolt of energy.
"Leave him. Trap or not…he'll be able to save Sakura no matter what. He's always been able to do that since they were little." Eriol said casting a spell towards Matt, who was getting very furious.
~*~ Sakura's view ~*~
I felt myself go limp when Hak-sum turned around and touched my lips. The last thoughts in my head was to be with Syaoran and all my friends, telling them I loved them very much, I wished that this would all end. I opened my eyes and saw myself on a large bedroom with no windows around. "Just like Matt's room…only way out is through that door." I thought to myself trying to move. But I couldn't, I couldn't move any part of my body except my eyes.
"I'm glad you've awoke." Hak-sum said looming over me. I tried to scream for help but couldn't find my voice. He turned around again and changed his robes, then saying, "Now I can finish the ceremony without having anything disturb me. That boy, Matt what a useful little thing he turned out to be, even though he was such a nuisance but that lust he had for you my dear turned into a big aspect. He should be taking care of those rescuers of yours now." Then taking out the roll of parchment from before I saw the Chinese words saying "I love you girl from the future, I'll take you to the sky where your dreams will come true." I screamed silently as he began chanting words. My body suddenly started to glow. My face started to grow pale and once again my eyes drooped and I fainted. But before losing my conciousness I heard a voice of comfort, " With you is where I belong...Don't stop fighting...with you is where I belong."
