Chapter 2:
Sakura opened her eyes. She saw Syaoran next to her with his eyes shut too. The wind going through time was pretty harsh. She looked down and noticed something. She was wearing a kind of sailors dress. She noticed her pin was still there though.She had a bag that had a string and it was hanging from her shoulder. Syaoran was wearing some brown pants and a blouse with a tie. He too, opened his eyes and noticed Sakura watching him.
"Where are we?"
"I don't know. Wait let me get out the book."
She got out the Sakura book and looked around to make sure no one was around. She opened it to the page kero had indicated.
"What year are we in?"
The book responded in pink writing: THE YEAR 1912.
"Hmmm 1912."
Syaoran looked at thier surroundings. It was very clear they were on a ship. They heard someone some up behind them.
"Hello! Look Annie! People our age!"
"Oh Jane look that girls sooo pretty!"
"Hoe?"
"Hi I'm Annie Smith and this is my friend Jane Brown. Its so nice to see people our age on this ship. We've been looking for friends ever since we boarded. Who are you?"
"Oh. I'm Sakura Kinomoto and this is Syaoran Li."
"Sakura! Thats a nice name." Jane said.
"They seem nice enough." Syaoran said to Sakura.
"What? You trust them? Wow this is a miracle."
"Huh? What language are you two speaking?" Annie Asked.
"Oh. We're from Japan. Japanese." Syaoran replied.
"Wow! You'd never tell by your english that Japanese is your first language."
"Thank you." Sakura said.
"It's such a nice night out here isn't it?" Annie said.
"Yeah it is. Why don't we go up there?" Sakura suggested, pointing to another outside level of the ship.
"Yeah! Great idea Sakura!" Annie said.
Annie and Jane started up the stairs but Sakura and Syaoran waited for a bit.
"Sakura we need to know where we are. It'll help us find the card."
"We'll ask them."
"Sakura be serious. They're going to think we're crazy."
Sakura winked.
"Just leave it to me. I know what I'm doing."
Annie called to them from on the level.
"Coming?"
"Yes!" Sakura said as she ran up the stairs.
Syaoran followed. He couldn't wait to see what she was going to do.
"This is such a nice ship!" Sakura said as she leaned over the bars.
"Yeah its so nice." Jane agreed.
"Syaoran what was the name again? I have trouble sometimes remembering english names of things..."
"its the-" Syaoran started but Jane inturrupted.
"Really Sakura? I thought everyone would remember the name of the Titanic."
Sakura felt her stomach plummet. The TITANIC? What was she going to do?
"Everyone but me!" She said moving to cover Syaorans shocked face.
Annie giggled. "Oh I get it Sakura! You were joking! Thats a good one."
"Haha yeah! I was trying to see if you'd believe a far-fetched lie like that. Fooled you!"
'I sound so lame.' Sakura thought to herself.
"Syaoran? Are you feeling ok?" Jane asked. Syaoran just stood there.
"He doesn't do well on boats...I think I'll take him down to lower deck and threaten to throw him overboard soon." Sakura said. Annie and Jane giggled.
"Are you two boyfriend and Girlfriend?" Annie asked. Jane elbowed her.
"ANNIE!"
"Its ok Jane. Yeah we are."
"Well he's not looking to good...Maybe you'd better threaten him now... Annie and I will wait."
"Thanks."
Sakura dragged Syaoran down to Lower deck and near the edge.
"Syaoran! Are you ok?"
"Sakura! We're on the Titanic!"
"I know. Here let me get out my book."
Sakura took it out.
"What day is it today?"
The book replied: APRIL 14TH 1912 11:30PM
"Syaoran!" She said showing him the book.
"What! No way! It can't be!"
"Syaoran I'm going to write a message to everyone."
*~*~*~*~
"Now what?" Tomoyo asked.
"We wait and see if they send us any messages. If they send us a message You,me,Kero and Yue all temporaroly fall into thier time zone. That means that if they send us a message, since where they are one day equals one minute here, we fall into that time zone too."
"Oh. Kero maybe you should wipe that pink smudge off the sheet while we wait then..." Tomoyo pointed out.
"Thats not a pink smudge! Thats a message from Sakura!" Kero said.
"Whats it say!" Tomoyo and Eriol asked in unison.
"Dear Kero: I need to know exactly what time The Titanic hit the iceburg and what time it sunk. -Sakura"
"I know that off by heart! It hit the iceburg at 11:40PM April 14th 1912 and it sunk 2:20AM April 15th."
"Tomoyo you write it then."
Tomoyo wrote the message and got a reply two minutes later
"It says 'Oh Shit'. What could that mean?"
"Ask." Eriol advised.
"Sakura: What do you mean? -Tomoyo"
"Tomoyo: Take a guess where Syaoran and I are. The date is April 14th 1912 and the time is 11:35PM -Sakura"
"WHAT! THEY'RE ON THE TITANIC!" Kero yelled.
"Oh no! It's going to hit the iceburg in 5 minutes!"
"Sakura: You have to get out of there! You could get stuck on the ship when it sinks! -Tomoyo"
"Tomoyo: We can't! We've tried just now. I think we have to find the card first. Syaoran and I are stumped as to what card it is! -Sakura, 11:38"
"Eriol what do we tell her to do!"
"Nothing. She's right. She has to find the card."
"Tomoyo: We;ll b careful. We have to go now. Stay safe. Give Eriol a punch from me -Syaoran 11:39"
*~*~*~*~
"Syaoran: I will NOT punch Eriol. Good luck and please stay safe. -Tomoyo"
"You told her to punch Eriol?"
"It was a joke."
"Hey you two! There you are. Oh is that a letter from your friend?" Annie asked.
"Yes my friend Tomoyo."
"Oh wow. I can't read that.... Hey! Theres the word Titanic. So she kno-"
"ICEBURG DEAD AHEAD!"
"HOE?" Sakura yelled.
"Don't worry Sakura. This ship is unsinkable. And what does 'Hoe' mean anyways?" Jane asked.
"Oh..Hoe is my special expression. Its like 'what' in a way."
"Jane thats so cool! We need to develop a special expression!"
They felt the ship shake violently as it collided with the iceburg. Sakura tripped and fell over the railing falling towards the icy cold sea. Syaoran grabbed her hand and saved her.
"Sakura!" Jane yelled. Annie and Jane grabbed Sakura's other hand and helped pull her up.
"Are you ok?" Annie asked.
"I'm fine. You guys have to go now! The ship is sinking!"
"Sakura this ship is unsinkable! Remember?"
Sakura bit her lip. How much could she tell them without revealing her identity?
"Come on! Lets go!" She yelled.
"Where are we going?" Jane called as they followed.
Sakura thought of her history class.
"If I'm right, The water will be flooding third class won't it?"
"Well I guess." Jane said.
"So lets find out if I'm right." Sakura said.
They all ran down to third class to see. Along the way, Syaoran and Sakura tried to find any sign of a Sakura Card Aura around. They're wasn't any. They got lost on the way down and they couldn't find a way out. It took them a long time to find the right way.
"Look! Water up to the knees! She's right Jane! we're sinking!"
"It's getting higher by the second! Annie what will we do?"
"Where are your parents?"
"Second class room 189" Jane said.
"Come on! We'll get them and find a lifeboat."
Sakura ran as fast as she possibly could. Annie and Jane tried to keep up.They again got lost on thier way with all the panic and confucion rising. They ran into thier room and convinced thier parents that the ship was sinking. Sakura looked at her watch. 1:50. Had they really spent that much time lost?
"Come on! We're running out of time!" She yelled to Jane and Annie and thier parents.
"Woman and children only!" The man on the ship called. The Titanic was getting close to being straight up in the air.
Just then there was a jolt and Sakura and Syaoran slipped backwards. They fell a bit and grabbed onto a rail. They couldn't see Annie or Jane anymore. Sakura and Syaoran shifted up towards the top of the Titanic. Then Sakura relized something.
"Syaoran! The iceburg right ahead of us! The freeze cards right there! It's inside of it!"
She glanced at her watch: 2:10 AM
"Seal it Sakura!"
"Everyone will see. I can't"
"Sakura it's so crazed no ones paying attention. Even if they do see no one will believe them. they'll say it was the emergency flares."
"You're right Syaoran."
"SAKURA! SYAORAN! HANG ON!" Annie called to them. They couldn't see from where.
"Oki no chikara o himeshi kagi yo! Shin no sugata o ware no mae ni shimese. Keiyaku no moto Sakura ga meijiru!....Release!!!"
The Key transformed into the staff.
"Freeze card! I know you're in that iceburg! Return to your master and become a card!" Sakura commanded. It did as told.
The Freeze card returned into Sakura's hands. Sakura put it in the Sakura book and returned the book to the back after taking out the Time card.
"Time! Take us to where -WOAH!"
"Sakura!"
Sakura fell off the boat and into the icy water below her. She held her watch out of the water and looked at it. 2:19! She had only seconds.
"TIME! Take Syaoran and I to the next card!"
There was a flash of light and the last thing Sakura heard before she didn't feel the icy water was a band. It played and played until it sank.
*~*~*~*~
I kinda liked it apart from the sad ending. R+R please!
