Coolness on his forehead lured him from his slumber, and slowly, his dark grey-blue eyes opened. The first face he saw was of Li's scowling at him. Then he realized why as Sakura's soft hands wiped his brow with a cold cloth. The Snow Rabbit was pacing the room agitatedly, muttering to himself. Slowly, Eriol forced himself to sit up, ignoring the pain that threatened to make him pass out again.
"Eriol-kun." Sakura whispered, "Are you alright?"
He tried to smile, "I am now, Sakura-chan."
"I'm glad." She smiled, her emerald eyes tearing.
"So what happened?" Li demanded harshly.
"Syoaron-kun." Sakura chastised. The boy's face turned a bright red and he quickly looked away.
"I was attacked." Eriol whispered, his hand absentmindedly rubbing at his side.
Sakura gasped, "By who?"
"I.I don't know."the dark haired boy shook his head, "But Sakura- chan, she's coming for you."
"She?" Yukito asked, snapping his attention to the injured boy.
"She." Eriol repeated, passing out again.
"Kami-sama." Yukito swore, beginning to pace the room again, with more agitation this time.
Li frowned at the taller boy, "What's wrong, Yukito-san?"
He didn't answer, just kept shaking his head and pacing quicker.
"Yukito-san?" Sakura asked, her emerald eyes filled with concern. She reached out and took his hand as he passed her. "What is it? You look awfully worried."
"Toya's not back." He whispered, "Toya's not back."
Eriol, Syoaron, and Sakura all frowned at the troubled young man. "Oniisan will be back soon." Sakura assured him. ".with Kero-chan."
"Cerberus." He gripped the sides of his head, "Toya."
The English boy frowned at the Snow Rabbit. "Yukito-san, I must speak with Yue-san please."
Yukito blinked several times before closing his eyes as if in a faint. Magnificent wings sprouted from his back and surrounded him. A magic circle appeared under him and a brilliant glow encased him. Moments later, the wings parted and before them stood the cool façade of Yue, guardian of the moon. He didn't say anything, just stood there watching the English boy that lay on Yukito's couch.
"Yue-san, calm yourself." The dark haired teenager ordered, "You need to have a clear head."
"It shouldn't take Toya-san this long to return." The guardian said coldly. "I feel there is danger stirring."
"There is, Yue-san." The boy said simply, "But you have responsibilities that you should not get distracted from."
"Hai," The guardian agreed.
"Besides, your worrying is affecting Yukito." The silver haired one didn't reply. "And that worries Sakura-chan."
Yue looked up startled and then looked from his previous master to his current one. The Japanese girl was huddled next to the couch, crying. Syoaron knelt by her, talking softly to her, and occasionally she would nod and wipe away a tear.
The front door opened and closed, "I'm back." Toya announced, producing a shopping bag and placing it on the counter by the kitchen.
"ONIISAN!" Sakura cried running at him and throwing her arms around him, sobbing against his chest.
Toya looked down at his little sister confused, "Sakura-chan? What is it?"
"Nande." she whispered, pulling away from him, "Nandemoni."
He ruffled her hair with a smirk, "Why don't you make us some tea?" The teenage girl nodded and walked into the kitchen to set the water to boil. After she had disappeared, he turned to Yue and frowned. "Here." He said sharply, throwing the shopping bag.
The guardian caught and opened it. Peering inside, he saw the very dizzy temporary form of the guardian of the sun, Cerberus. "Cerberus." He addressed.
The creature that resembled a stuffed toy, shook his head, blinked and looked up at the glowering face of his partner and opposite. "Yue." He frowned. "Why did the Big Brother kidnap me away from my games?" He demanded before wailing, "I was about to make the big score!"
"There is something a little more important than video games going on." Li glared into the bag.
"HEY!" Kero yelled, "What are you doing here, Brat? I thought we had gotten rid of you!"
"I've returned to Japan, for school." The Chinese boy answered coolly.
"Is that so." Toya glared at him. Li glared back, his fists clenching at his side.
"Tea's ready." Sakura announced walking into the room with a tray of tea cups.
Kero flew out of the bag with a cheer, and flew towards the girl. "YEEEAAAHHH-ACK!" He chocked out when someone grabbed him by his wings. "Hey! Let go!"
"You're going to make her spill." Li glared at the stuffed animal.
"Arigato, Syoaron-kun." She beamed towards him, causing him to flush and her brother to glare. She knelt, oblivious to it all, at the small table and began to pour the tea and pass it out. "Eriol-kun." she said handing him a cup.
'Arigato, Sakura-chan." The dark haired boy accepted the drink.
"Syoaron-kun." She smiled as he knelt by her and accepted his drink.
Kero pouted, "HEY! WHEN DO I GET MINE?"
"Kero-chan, you're so rude." She chastised, handing her brother a cup before pouring herself some. She looked up at Yue. He was staring out of the window, "Um.. Yue-san. I know that you don't drink or eat. but are you sure that you wouldn't like some?"
"Iie.thank you." He muttered, gracing her with a glance before turning back to the window.
The girl shrugged and poured one last glass and handed it to the flying toy, "Here, Kero-chan. Don't spill."
"I won't, I won't." The miniature guardian protested, taking his cup and flying up to the top of the bookshelf. "So what's the big problem?"
"She's back." Yue answered, while Eriol shuddered despite himself.
