Falling Petals

Chapter 11

By: Tear Drops

A/N: Hi again, sorry that it's been so long, but I've had major writer's block, and it really stinks. Anyways, on with the story.

Disclaimer: For the millionth time! I don't own CCS or any of it's characters! All I own is Thomas, Tina, their creations, and this story!

*~~~~~*~~~~~*~~~~~*~~~~~~*~~~~~*

Yue and Keroberos flew to Tokyo Tower as fast as they could with their speed.

"Keroberos, go wake up Sakura, I will find Li." Yue commanded.

"Right." Keroberos answered, flying up. Spotting Sakura, he landed next to her, nudging her with his nose. Sakura stirred and blinked. She stared up at him.

"Keroberos? What's wrong? Geez, it's cold up here... Wait a minute! Where is here?!" She screamed, sitting up right.

Keroberos sighed. "We're on Tokyo Tower's top floor, Sakura, and somehow, you ended up here in the middle of the night."

"What?!? Oh my god! It's one in the morning! But.. What happened here?" Sakura asked, looking around at the damage.

"I believe you were an object of a fight." Yue said, standing beside Keroberos, holding a body.

Syaoran's bruised burnt, bloody mess of a body.

Sakura gasped. "Syaoran! No! What happened to him?! Yue?! Keroberos?!" She questioned, eyes wide, looking to her guardians. Neither could answer her.

*~~~~~*~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~*

Tina stood beside Thomas, grinning.

"Well, well, well. The little wolf passed this test, but will they pass the others?"

Thomas gazed at the weeping girl and half-dead boy. His heart gave a tug at a feeling he never felt before. Sadness.

*~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~*

Eriol sat up in bed, breathing hard. A nightmare had come again, third time this week. What did it mean?

*~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~*

The next day, Sakura spent her time at Syaoran's apartment, nursing his wounds. Several times, she would use the Heal and faint from exhaustion. Yuki watched the two, telling Touya not to worry. Touya knew better, and hung around anyway. Sakura explained everything to her family, and Fujitaka nodded approvingly. He let her stay home from school to take care of her fiancee.

*~~~~~~*~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~*

When Syaoran was well enough to return to school, the list for the official parts in 'Grease' were up. Sakura read down the list with Tomoyo.

"Tomoyo, you're the narrator, Eriol's Leo, (the bad one from the other group, poor Eriol ;]) Syaoran is Kenickie (the good one, head of the Thunderbirds with Danny. Yeah!!!) But I don't see my name." Sakura shrugged.

Tomoyo grinned. "Sakura, you didn't read the second sheet. You play............. SANDY!" She squealed.

"Oh my god! Really?!?!? Awesome!!! But, one question. Who's Danny?"

Tomoyo looked at the list. "Hmm.. Danny is.... Thomas. And Rizzo is Tina."

"Ooh, ok, that's not too bad."

"Yea, it could be worse."

"Uh, Tomoyo, did you notice that Lisa Perkins is playing Cha Cha?" (Leo's girlfriend)

"What!!!!!!! You mean MY Eriol is stuck with that slutty show off?!?! Ewwwwww! No way!" (Yea, I know, totally out of character... )

Sakura laughed. "Well, lets go tell the boys."

"Yea.. I guess." Tomoyo said, pouting.

*~~~~~~*~~~~~*~~~~~~*

Thomas smiled. So he would play Danny. Danny, the most popular boy. Danny, Sandy's man. Hmm.. This should be interesting....

*~~~~~~*~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~*

"Hey Sakura, I've got an idea. I heard that Meilin is coming back tomorrow. Why not go clubbing to celebrate her return?" Tomoyo suggested, smiling secretly.

"Hey! That sounds awesome! I can't wait! Then we could have a big sleepover at my place, and maybe on Saturday we could go to the beach, you know, with all the boys and stuff." Sakura said, all happy now.

"Yea! Great idea! Then you know what this means....." Tomoyo replied, grinning like the Cheshire cat.

"Oh no... Please no Tomoyo....." Sakura moaned.

"MORE KAWAII OUTFITS FOR MY SAKURA CHAN!" She squealed, getting starry eyes.

Sakura just sighed, defeated.

*~~~*~~~~~*~~~~~~~*~~~~~~*

Tina stood in the hallway, listening to Sakura and Tomoyo's conversation. A smile formed on her lips. The beach, huh? The perfect place for the last test. To see if she would survive as the sorceress of the Sakura Cards. Would this young girl win against those sworn to destroy the Clow linage?

*~~~~~*~~~~~~~*~~~~~*

Meilin skipped off the plane and waved to her friends. Man, it was great to be back in Japan again. She missed her other home. She actually admitted missing her cousin and friends. Yea, she even missed that pain Kero. Smiling, she stopped before them.

"Hey! I'm back!"

"Welcome back Meilin!" Sakura greeted, hugging her.

"Hi!" Tomoyo said, also giving her a hug.

"Welcome back, Miss Meilin." Eriol greeted, a smile gracing his face.

"Hey Meilin. Welcome back." Syaoran said, smiling at his cousin.

Meilin hugged him, stepped back, and put her hands on her hips. "Well, did you miss me?" She asked in a haughty voice. They all laughed at her.

"It's great to be back!"

*~~~~*~~~~~*~~~~~*~~~~~*

Tomoyo took them all to her place for a girl's night only. The boys found their own way home. Tomoyo, being the genius designer she was, handed Sakura and Meilin outfits. Sakura gave it a skeptical look. Meilin grinned.

"Another brilliant creation, Tomoyo?"

"Yup. Go! Go try them on!" Tomoyo replied, pushing the two into changing rooms.

Sakura stepped out of her clothes and put on the outfit Tomoyo gave her. When she had it on, she looked in the mirror.

'Wow... this is really good!' She thought.

Peeking out, she saw Tomoyo talking to Meilin, already dressed in their outfits. Meilin sat down at the vanity as Tomoyo pulled her hair into wild spikes with red streaks. It blended perfectly with the outfit. Black bell-bottom pants and a sparkly tank showed off Meilin's body.

"Sakura! Are you done?!" Tomoyo called.

"Uh... Yea....." Sakura came out from her hiding place. Meilin took a glance and smiled.

"You look great Sakura."

"Thanks..."

"Sit down. I'll do your hair too."

"Ok." Sakura sat down and looked at Tomoyo's outfit. A black ankle length skirt with a slit up to her thigh and a purple tube top. Her hair was up in a ponytail with neon purple streaks.

When she finished with Sakura's hair, she grinned. Sakura looked perfect with her sequined halter-top and black capris. Her hair was streaked with pink and up in a claw. Sakura smiled.

"Let's get this party started!" She said.

"All right!" Meilin grinned, giving a victory sign.

"I'm comin up so you better get this party started!" Tomoyo sang.

*~~~~~*~~~~~*~~~~~~*

The club glowed from strobe lights and glitter. The D.J. was playing hot music as the guys and girls danced. As Sakura walked through, the crowds parted. She gave them a bad-girl grin and swung her hips. Tomoyo and Meilin slapped hands and swung their hips too, with a whateva look.

They stopped in the middle. Tomoyo gave the D.J a curt nod, and he flipped on "You make me sick" by Pink. The three girls burst out in moves, enjoying all the attention. Some of the hotter guys were trying to hit on them, but they just ignored them. Meilin even flipped off one guy. Sakura punched her playfully.

"Meilin! You know better!"

"Sorry, sorry, couldn't help it." Meilin replied, grinning.

Sakura laughed. "It's cool."

*~~~~~*~~~~~~*~~~~~*

The girls hung and danced in the club until midnight. After a few drinks, they were kind of ditzy. Tomoyo giggled and dialed Eriol. Eriol picked up his phone after a few rings.

"Hello?"

"Hiiii Errriiiol hun. Can you pik us up?"

"Tomoyo? Where are you?" Eriol furrowed his brow in confusion.

"Ats this great club....its the perfect night!"

"Tomoyo. Stay put. I'm on my way."

"Tay tay....buh bye."

*~~~~*~~~~*

Eriol arived a few minutes later, looking older. He shook his head at the girls as they climbed in, drunk.

"How many drinks did you have?" He asked.

"Um.... let's see..... 1, 2.... 5....." Meilin counted.

"I'd say about 5 each." Sakura said, blinking.

"Oh god... I'm taking you all home. Try not to get sick on my car." He said, speeding them home.
