~*~ Author's Note ~*~

Hey everyone, I would like to thank all of those who are just reading and not reviewing, although it would be nice if you did review every once in a while so I would know that my posting isn't being done in vain. -_- oh well. Anyway, to just let you know I made this chapter short so I can work hard on Tough Lovin' and Love From Both Sides, but chapter ten will be much longer. I promise

Special thanks to: blueangelbaby ~*~ Ai no Senshi

To blueangelbaby your right on why Melin hates Sakura! And the answer is both of the things that you listed ^_^.

Thank you for reviewing! Chapter 10 Almost done!

Oh um near the last part of the chapter 8 the other unmentionable was the part you sit on. ^_~ I really don't have a problem saying what the body parts are, but I want to try and write a clean fic for now. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Binyaile- Ghetto is trying to use big words.

Ghetto Princess- So, there's nothing wrong with tryin to expand my vocabulary.

Binyaile- Why? It's not like your going to college or anything. You can't afford it.

Will- What's your point? Ghetto can't afford much of anything.

Tina- Yeah! She can barely afford to by a pad of paper.

Ghetto Princess- Speaks through clenched teeth. Geez you guys, you sure know how to make a girl feel good about her self.

Everyone- We Know!

Ghetto Princess- Sweat drops. Anyway, on with the fic!



~*~ Chapter 9 ~*~

Melin looked back at me with an expressionless face. "You mean you don't know why I hate you?" she asked dumbfounded.

That was most definitely not the response I was expecting. I was expecting something more along the lines of 'I don't really hate you, I'm just trying to give you a hard time.' Or something close to that.

"I guess not," I said stumbling over my words a little.

Melin snorted and turned her attention back to her daggers. "You must be the dumbest thing to walk across the face of this planet," Melin muttered. I could feel my anger begin to rise inside me. "I hate you because your trying to take away the one man I 've ever loved away from me," Melin said her voice faltering a bit. "I've worked so hard to try and get his attention and then all of a sudden you just waltz here and take his heart like it was an everyday chore."

I looked at Melin dumbfounded. "Who is the guy I'm supposedly trying to steal away from you Melin?" I asked a little confused.

"Oh now your trying to acted dumber than usual!" Melin said throwing her hands up in the air dramatically. I could see her eyes begin to glisten from the unshed tears she had. "Well, until your done acting like a dummy I don't want you even think about coming near me!" Melin shouted drawing attention to us as she picked up the dagger that she had been cleaning and pointed it directly at my chest.

For some reason, Melin's dagger didn't affect me, not one bit. I know I should have been scared by having someone point a dagger at you ready to kill you at any given moment but I just wasn't. instead of fear, I felt pity for Melin. I felt like giving her a hug but at the moment Melin would be ready to slit my throat if I even tried.

I sighed and stood up and looked down at Melin, who sat there glaring up at me. "I'm sorry I bothered you, but I still don't know who your talking about," I told her honestly, but I don't think she believed a word I said.

Sighing I looked up at the sky, which was turning into a fiery orange. Night would fall soon and I dreaded it for I know that soon I would have to answer to Syaoran about Kero.

I don't know how he found Kero or found out he could talk, but I couldn't talk to Kero about that right now because of everyone else, who I'm sure knows nothing about Kero right now, would totally freak out.

Then this foolproof plan popped up in my head. I could go to sleep early. Syaoran wouldn't dare wake a princess out of her beauty sleep now would he? I smiled to my self and headed back to my pallet that I still hadn't made up.

I sat down and was about to lie down and go to 'sleep' when I heard Syaoran. "I wouldn't think of trying that. It's not going to work, Sakura," I heard him say.

I looked up at him. "You've become such a jerk!" I told him. "Maybe I really am tired and want to go back to sleep." I know I was lying. I was wide-awake and ready to get out of this creepy forest.

"You're a horrible liar Sakura. Every time you lie you play with your fingernails."

I looked down at my hands, completely unaware that I was playing with my nails and then I was shocked because Syaoran knew me well enough to know when I was lying or not. Yet here I stood knowing him the same out of time that he's known me and I don't know anything about him, except that he's in an emotional state.

"So are you going to talk to me about Kero now so we can get this over with?" I asked him miserably. I saw a dangerous glint shine in his eye.

"No," he said simply. "We're going to wait until everyone is all sound asleep. No exceptions," he said before I opened my mouth.

I laid down anyway muttering about stupid mind readers. AS soon as my head touched the make shift pillow I had I instantly went to sleep. I guess I was tired.

While I was sleeping I had this weird dream. I was standing alone in the darkness, yet I could see my self. I felt scared and wanted to leave and I called out names of all the people I've ever known, weather I liked them or if I disliked them.

Then suddenly there was a bright flash that blinded me and I began to hear the most angelic voice singing this sweet melody. The melody seemed familiar yet it felt foreign in my ears all at the same time.

I closed my eyes and began to dance slowly to the voice and then I started to sing and dance it, like I had known it all my life. It was enchanting and mysterious, strange yet exciting, and forbidden.

When the song had ended I woke up and found my self standing up near the fire. Everyone was in a circle around me at a far distance like they were afraid to be near me. Only Melin was still by her tree, but she had this frightful look on her face.

"What's going on?" I asked Tomoyo.

"She doesn't know what she was doing." I heard Eriol breath.

"W-we're not sure.Sakura. We were kind of hoping you could tell us," she said and she began playing with a piece of her long violet hair.

I felt this huge wave of nausea sweep over me and it took all of the strength out of my body making me fall to the ground limp as if I had no bones at all.



Wow.I wonder what's wrong with Sakura and that crazy dream.I bet you guys are wondering to aren't ya? Sorry that I haven't updated for the past two days. I've been at my grandma's house learning how to knit. @_@. Anyway, no one told me how they wanted this story to go so I guess that I'm going to have to take polls at school since no one seems to care here at ff.net. One more time. IF ANYONE WANTS ME TO CONTINUE THE FIC LIKE I HAVE BEEN DOING THE PLEASE SAY SO. IF ANYONE WANTS ME TO WRITE A WHOLE DAY IN A CHAPTER, LIKE FROM DAWN TIL DUSK THEN PLEASE TELL ME. Thank you for your patients now I will go and work on the next chapters.
