Are You Really Her?!
A/N: Thanks to those who reviewed. If the ending is confusing, tell in a review and I'll try to explain it in the next chapter.
When Syaoran got back to Mei Ling's apartment, Syaoran saw that Mei Ling and Tomoyo was over and was sitting in the living room with Kero. The two girls were talking, while Kero was eating a strawberry shortcake. Syaoran walked pass them, wanting to go to his room, but Mei Ling caught his arm.
"Syaoran! It's been a long time since I saw you!" Mei Ling hugged Syaoran.
"Same here, Mei Ling. Now, can you let go of me?" Syaoran asked with no emotion.
Mei Ling let go of Syaoran, forcing him to sit next to her.
Mei Ling, Tomoyo, and Syaoran talked for a few hours. During the talk, Syaoran wanted to go to his room, but couldn't. He knew that girls can talk for a pretty long time, but he never knew that they could talk for nearly two so hours, straight. Whenever Syaoran tried to tell Mei Ling that he want to go to his room, Mei Ling would ask him a question, making sure that he answered it. Finally, Syaoran told Mei Ling and Tomoyo that he wanted to take a shower.
"Okay, I'm going to take a shower," Syaoran said, getting up.
"But-"
"I think that Li-kun should get one, after all I suppose that he came back and didn't take one since he was visiting Sakura-chan, and he came back and we asked and told him so many things," Tomoyo cut Mei Ling off. Syaoran gave Tomoyo a face that said thank you.
Syaoran went off to take a shower, when he took a clean shirt and outfit, he noticed that something was missing. Syaoran patted his pockets to see if anything was gone; he had his wallet, the key to Mei Ling's apartment, the receipt from the flowers that he brought, and a few lint. Syaoran then saw what was missing, the locket. Syaoran quickly searched his pockets, hoping to find the locket. No luck. Syaoran then remembered that he didn't put the locket back into his pocket when he left Sakura's grave. I better go and get it back, Syaoran thought.
When Syaoran got to the grave, he saw that the locket was missing. He couldn't believe that the locket was missing. All Syaoran could think of was who would take his locket that he had brought for Sakura, along with his life supporter? Syaoran saw that the locket was the only thing that could keep him alive without Sakura, for he knew that Sakura had touched, cared, loved, and cried on it. Without it, Syaoran saw that his life has no meaning. It was as if the locket let him see things clearly.
Syaoran continued searching for the locket, tempted to use the Time Card, but he knew better than to use his magic to search for a locket. When Syaoran finally gave up on looking for the locket, he saw a trail of footprints near Sakura's grave. He knew that it wasn't his, since his foot was bigger than the ones there. Syaoran bent down to look at the footprints more clearly. As Syaoran bent down to look at the footprint, he felt a faint aura near the footprint. An aura that he once felt, but was lost in his mind. Syaoran tried to figure out whose aura was this and who the footprint belonged to. Syaoran followed the footprint, and saw that the trail was just a circle around Sakura's grave, no beginning and no ending. Syaoran now was tempted big time to use the Time Card, but couldn't since there were some people around.
As Syaoran continue to figure out whose aura and footprints were here, he didn't noticed that a person was spying on him from afar. In the person's hand, there was the locket. When Syaoran decided to take a break, the person slowly walked up to Syaoran, making sure that their face was covered. Syaoran noticed a shadow covering him and turned around. When Syaoran turned around his eyes quickly noticed the locket. Syaoran couldn't see the person's face for they was hidden in the shadows and the hood of the coat. Syaoran was about to say something when the person held up their hand, telling him to let them explain.
"You may not know me, but I know you very well, Syaoran," The person said. Syaoran was in shock when the person knew his name.
"Who are you?" Syaoran demanded
"Here, I'll rephrase that. You may not know who I am right now, but soon you will," The person answered softly.
"I know you?" Syaoran asked in surprise.
"Yes, fairly well too," Syaoran gave the person a questioning look.
"You know what are my favorite color, food, and sport. You know who my best friend is. Also, how I died," The person continued.
"What? How you died? I only saw ONE person's death and she's gone!" Syaoran said with anger as he turned his back to the stranger.
"Yes, I know that," Syaoran turned around. He noticed the change of voice and how the person was his love.
"I see that you recognize my voice. Let's see if you recognize who I am," The person stepped out of the shadow and removed the hood.
Syaoran was in total shock to see the person. The person that he had least expected to be alive.
While Syaoran and the person was talking, the two of them didn't notice that a certain person was watching them.
"What? How can this be?!" Syaoran exclaimed, not moving. The person smiled.
"The Gods decided to let me continue living here until it's really my time to go," The person explained.
"When it's really your time to go?" Syaoran questioned.
"Yes, I died too soon. Plus, the Gods and Goddesses wanted me to be back with you,"
"So, you're back with me?" The person nodded.
"That's great!"
"Here," The person handed back the locket.
Syaoran shook his head, as if telling his dearest Sakura that she should keep it. Syaoran hugged Sakura; happy that he had who he wanted back in his life. Sakura smiled and hugged Syaoran back. Syaoran then started to Sakura a whole bunch of questions. Sakura had to laugh at some of the questions that Syaoran had asked her. When Sakura had clamed down, Syaoran decided to ask her if she was the one who wrote the note and placed the box in his room that night. Sakura gave Syaoran a confused face.
"What note and box? I only saw you when you were here in Japan," Sakura said.
"If you only saw me here then who wrote me that note and gave me that box?" Syaoran asked himself out loud.
"What was inside the box?" Sakura asked.
"A necklace,"
"That's all?"
"Hai,"
"Here, this is what the necklace look like," Syaoran showed Sakura the necklace.
Sakura looked at the necklace first and told Syaoran that she had never seen them before. Syaoran was about to tell Sakura what was written inside the note when he heard something from afar. Sakura also heard it and turned to the direction of the noise.
"Did you heard that?" Syaoran asked Sakura. Sakura nodded her head.
"What do you think it is?" Sakura asked.
"Not sure. It could be an animal,"
"What kind of animal makes a big noise like that?"
"It could be a bird,"
"It's either a really big bird or someone is watching us,"
"You could be right,"
"Should we go and check it out?"
"I don't know,"
Sakura and Syaoran heard the noise once again, this time not sure of what it is.
"Do you think it's a ghost?"
"There's NO such things as ghosts, Sakura,"
"Okay then,"
Syaoran slowly and quietly walked toward the noise with Sakura behind him, scared. When Syaoran and Sakura got to the location of the noise, all they saw were some footprints, crunched up pieces of paper, a pen, and a empty box of flim. Sakura looked at things confusingly, while Syaoran looked around to see if the person was still around. He saw no one and knew that someone was spying on them. Syaoran took Sakura's hand and told her that he's going to bring her back to Mei Ling's apartment.
While Syaoran and Sakura walked back to Mei Ling's apartment, a faint angel figure of Sakura appeared behind them, crying. She couldn't believe that her Syaoran had fell for a fake Sakura. As Syaoran and the fake Sakura fade out in the sunset, Sakura knew that it would be nearly impossible to get Syaoran to recognize that the real one was here, crying. Sakura had hope that Syaoran would figure out what the note meant. No matter what, Sakura knew that someday, somewhere her beloved would return her, dead or alive. Sakura thought about entering Syaoran's dream, but wasn't quite sure about that idea. All Sakura knew was that she had to tell Syaoran the truth. Sakura then thought of another idea, she would send Syaoran some stuff and another note.
