~*~ Sakura's POV ~*~

"Oh, I'm shaking in my boots," taunted the magician. "You should be," I growled, looking the other way. "Let's just end your life Card Mistress," he said and jumped off the stage. I cat walked forward, my aura blazing with hatred. "Sakura, you will not fight him," Hiea whispered to me. "Hiea, even if you're my new guardian, please stay with Syaoran, Matt, Kero and Yue." I turned my head to him and made a pointed look at him to get my point. He bowed. "As you wish Sakura," and he went to Syaoran to hold him back from coming to me. I smiled. "Now, as for you sir, today's your lucky day," I whispered. "Not yet. Until I kill you, my day is unlucky!" And with that, he lunged forward to me. I blocked him and transformed my hand into a sword. "Well done," he congratulated. I grinned at him. "It was all your guys' help. Without you, I'd never been able to be like this," I commented. He stopped and looked shocked. "We did what," he demanded. I smirked and dug my heel into the ground. I ran forward to him and jumped over him. 'Fire' I thought and landed. He faced my way and made an energy attack towards me. I ducked down and hit him with fire. "AHHH, itai," he screamed and was patting out the fire. "Shimatta, he's going to live," I whispered lazily. "Yes I will," he told me, turning my way. He tried to hit me again with the attack and I just swiped his energy. "Every time you use an attack, like the energy one you just made, I soak it up and you get weaker. Spare yourself before you get killed," I told him. I didn't want anyone killed so I gave the poor guy mercy. "You would give me mercy? Your own enemy," he asked, confused. I laughed and nodded. "Then, I'd kill you still," he screamed and lunged towards me once again. I sighed and took a step out of his way. He fell on the table and it cracked in half. Punch spilled all over him and everyone was laughing. "Bitch," he cursed and flew towards me. He tackled me down and I was just laughing. "Why are you still laughing," he demanded. I laughed more and glared at him for the last time. I disappeared. "Come get me if you dare," I taunted from the shadows. "Come out coward," he commanded. I laughed more and he tackled me from where I was standing, waiting. I started laughing more and more. "Stop laughing," he screamed. "No," and I stopped laughing. I glared at him and released his energy upon him. He screamed out and terror and light that was pouring out of me, was pouring onto him. "Bye," Hiea called from the sidelines. I laughed and walked to an open chair near me. "Hiea, come here please," I asked him. He obediently went to me. "Take a look," as I showed him a ribbon the guy had. "I know where they have those ribbons at. It's in Tokyo. Remember, when you went to Tokyo that one time? Well. there was a well near the hotel you went to. That's were I felt the aura," he told me. I nodded. "I felt it too. But I wonder who would go to such lengths to kill me," I wondered. I pressed my hand to my head, suddenly having a headache. "Mistress," he asked, concerned at my health. "I'm not feeling well," I confided, covering my stomach. I felt the baby's aura go down with mine. "Let me get you some ice," he asked and went to give me some. I turned back to normal. "Sakura, are you ok," asked Kero from the pudding stand. I didn't answer. My headache was taking all of my energy. "Sakura," asked Kero as he came over to my table. "Here's your ice," Hiea said and I took it away from him. I put it to my head and shivered at its chilliness. "Sakura, are you ok," asked Yue, also coming. I nodded my head, which was all I could do. "Sakura," asked Kero. I smiled at him. "Don't worry," I croaked. "You can barely talk. And it feels like its magic doing all this," Kero remarked, faintly checking me out to see if I had a fever. "Yue, take her to her room. She doesn't feel well. And if she gets sick and never gets well, the baby might be the same way," Hiea told my guardians. "Matt," I whispered. Kero went to his human feet and went to Matt. He picked him up and brought him to me. I smiled at Matt and snuggled against him. "It's ok. I'm going to get Yelan," Hiea commented and left the room. Yue took his wings out and shook them. He picked me up and he flew to my room.

~*~ Syaoran's POV ~*~

I felt someone' aura get weak. I searched and searched. I felt another aura with the weak one take flight. I looked up and saw Yue and Sakura. "Sakura," I croaked and ran to Eriol and Tomoyo. "What's the matter Syaoran," asked Tomoyo, who was looking at my horror stricken face. "Sakura," I managed to get out. They immediately took my face and my voice and pieced it together. Sakura was in trouble. "Sakura," we called after them. As soon as we got in the room, I saw Sakura pale and sweating. "Sakura," I cried out and went to her, holding her hand. "What's happening to her," Tomoyo asked. "We'll ask when Yelan comes here. She needs to get another doctor and some ice. Sakura seems to have a fever," Kero muttered. Yue had tears in his eyes. "Yue," Sakura moaned. "Yes Sakura," he asked, saying her name. She smiled faintly. "Get Matt out of here. And leave except Syaoran. I need to talk to him in private," Sakura croaked. Tomoyo started to let her tears out and Eriol comforted her. "Let's go," he whispered to her and together, they left. Yue and Kero went outside. "We'll watch for Ms. Li and the doctor," Yue commented and closed the door. "Syaoran," Sakura muttered, tears coming out of her eyes. "Sakura, don't leave me please," I wailed. Sakura touched my cheek lovingly. I looked up to her. "Syaoran. I'll never leave you. I'm just telling you, if I die from whatever I have, please take care of Matt," she told me. "I will. But I'm warning you, please don't leave us," I said. Tears started flowing from my eyes. "I'll never leave you. But it feels like it," she remarked, smiling. "Sakura, we trust you to make the decision. Please. I'm begging you. I don't know how I could ever live without you," I told her, stroking her cheek, smiling at her beauty even when she was sick. "I'm not leaving soon though," she said, laughing bubbling from her throat. Knocking came from the door and Toya, Yukito, Meiling, Eriol, Yue, Keroberus, Hiea, Tomoyo, my mom and the doctor came crashing in. "Kajuii," breathed Toya and ran up to Sakura. "Toya, Yukito, Yue, Tomoyo, Eriol, Meiling," Sakura said, looking at everyone. "Sakura, save up your energy," I scolded her. She smiled at me. "Young man, please get away from her," the doctor ordered me. I obeyed and went to Toya, who seemed to take the glaring scene once again. I glared right back. "Gaki, if my sister dies, I'm holding you personally for her death," Toya growled. I gave him a look that said whatever. "She'll not die," I reassured him. He hmmphed and turned around to talk to Yukito. "Syaoran, are you sure she'll not die," Tomoyo asked, tears welling up again in her eyes. "She'll not die," I reassured everyone again. "How do you know little descendant," Eriol demanded, glaring at me. "I just know. Call it a male intuition," I told them. They all glared at me and I backed up. "You're not helping," Toya muttered, still glaring at me. "Toya, stop being mean," Sakura scolded weakly from the bed as the doctor was looking at her temperature and stuff like that. "Ms. Li, she seems to have the pneumonia," the doctor told us, worry knitted on his forehead. "Is that bad," she asked. "Well, at certain times yes. It can leave a person with an organ failing or even death," he told us. My eyes bulged and I ran to Sakura. Fear ran up and down my chest. "How can we treat this diseases doctor," Tomoyo asked, holding herself up by the chair. "Here, take this. Give it to her 2 each four hours for 3 days. After that, give her lots of water and keep her in bed. After a week is over, you can let her around the house. Though, don't let her work so much. She'll loose a lot of energy that way," the doctor confirmed, giving us antibiotics for Sakura. "Thank you doctor," My mother said. "No problems. I'm just wondering when the baby is coming," the doctor wondered. "In about a couple of months," confirmed Tomoyo. "I'll be taking my leave," and with that he bowed and left. "Sakura, stay strong," Yukito said. "Yuki, you're leaving me already," Sakura mumbled. "Sorry, but in order to keep both of our houses, I have to work. Toya needs to come too. The boss is getting mad," he told Toya and us. I nodded. "Go both of you. I'll be just fine," Sakura confirmed softly. "Take these Sakura," my mother told her and got some water and pills for her. She put the pills in her mouth and put a bunch of water with it. She swallowed all of it and laid back down to rest. "Let's get something to eat," Eriol nudged and we left, leaving Yue and Kero to watch over her.

~ 2 months later ~

"Sakura! Wait up," I called to her. She giggled and ran faster. I strained my legs to go faster. "Got ya," I said triumphantly and tackled her down softly to the ground. "Syaoran," she pouted and I tickled her. "Stop," she laughed. Again and again she would say that until she gave up. "I'll stop," and I gave her a kiss on the nose. She giggled. "Losing to a girl huh," she teased and nicked my nose. I went wide-eyed and started laughing. "You're so cute," I complimented her, stroking her cheeks. "Looks how pretty it is," she whispered and I took in the scenery. We were laying on fresh green grass and some of those blowing flowers, which you blow on them and make a wish. We were on a hill and on the bottom, there were trees and little squirrels jumping around in the tree. "It's beautiful," she breathed, smiling. "But I know something more beautiful," I teased and kissed her cheeks. She blushed and got up. I followed and she brushed her knees off. I put my arms around her shoulders and we stood there, dancing a little. "I love you Sakura. More then life itself," I told her, kissing her head. "I love you too. More then life itself," she repeated, blushing redder. "Sakura, you know the wedding is in a week," I continued when she nodded, " Are you sure you want to do this? I mean it is a big commitment." "I'm sure. Wherever you are, I want to be," she said, smiling. "I'm glad," I said huskily and together, we walked around the house and into the front door. Sakura slammed into someone and flew back into me. "Sakura," asked Eriol, concerned. "Did I bump into you or a wall," she asked, humor tinting her voice. "Bumped into me," he said shamelessly but he had blushed pink. "I see why I bumped into you," she teased, looking at Eriol. He had gotten bigger and broader. But he was still skinny. "Well, you and Tomoyo look like a beach ball," he teased, looking at Sakura purposely. "Well, who made us like that," she gave us a pointed look. "Uh, Kami," I guessed. Sakura glared at me. "Ok, I admit it! I did it," I confessed. Sakura gave Eriol a pointed look saying 'Give it up'. "Ok. I did it too!" Sakura sighed and walked into the room. I watched her go to Tomoyo's room. "Did you find where that ribbon was from," I asked, hanging back on the wall. "It's from here. Not from Tokyo like Hiea said. He said he must've mistaken it," Eriol explained. "Where is Hiea," I asked. "He's out exploring out Tokyo," Eriol confided in a secret. I nodded my agreement. "It looks like our enemy is bidding her or his time to get more dummies," I taunted, laughing all the while. "I wouldn't know about that. She might be waiting to hit you at possible vulnerability," Eriol said in a macho voice. I put a horrific face on. "Be ready. She's going to strike at the wedding," I said, knowing it all the time. "What about Sakura? She can't handle the power. What are we going to do," Eriol asked, worried. "We'll have to move Sakura and Tomoyo out of the room. We don't want them in any trouble. Hey, lets get Yue and Kero there. In different costumes though. We'll take Hiea and a lot of magical people and dress them up in a suit that the enemy wouldn't be able to recognize," Syaoran devised. Eriol nodded his head in agreement. "Let's get ready," Eriol said.

~*~ Sakura's POV ~*~

"Tomoyo, I want to go back to Japan. I feel the evil we are still facing is about to attack. I don't want anyone attack, not even Matt," as I cooed to Matt. I kissed his cheek and he blushed. "Mama go bye-bye," he said and laughed. "With you. But I've got to ask Ms. Li. But I also want Syaoran to come. But it'll only create more havoc," I said, doubt pouring it my mind. "Sakura, stay here. You'll be safe here. At least wait until the wedding is over to go back to Japan. Maybe you can live there with Syaoran also," Tomoyo commented. I nodded. "Thanks for the advice. I really needed it. I just need to sort out my affairs. Do you think we can go for a few days," I asked, a little devious. "Maybe. Let's just ask my mom for some bodyguards," Tomoyo muttered. "Ok. Let me help you with that. Plus I think they got the phones rigged," I said and we laughed. I pulled create card out and out came two mirrors. "Mirror, go to Sonomi Daijoibu's house and give it to her. Then turn it on. We'll be waiting," I told it patiently and waited about an hour before it came on. "Tomoyo," asked Sonomi, looking at me and Tomoyo. "Mom, we need some body guards. Sakura needs a few days to get her things in order. So we need tickets and some other stuff right away. Is that ok with you," Tomoyo asked. Sonomi nodded and looked at me. "Congratulations Sakura. I heard about the engagement and the baby," as she winked at me. "Thank you," I said graciously. I looked to Tomoyo then at the mirror. "Tomoyo, dear, we already have tickets for you waiting," Sonomi confirmed. "Thank you Sonomi," I thanked her. "You guys are welcome," and with that, the mirror disappeared and out came the create card. "Mistress, this is dangerous. You can get hurt or worse, die. Don't push yourself," Hope told me. "Hope, I want to do this. I need some time. My pregnancy is almost at an end and my wedding is in a week. You can see I'm a nervous wreck," I said, fidgeting. I took a napkin and started tearing little pieces of it. "Yeah, I think doing this will help you calm your nerves," Tomoyo muttered, looking at me with concern. "Let's get going," I said and went to my room. I packed up my stuff and Matt's. As soon as I got into the hallway, I heard crashing and some other banging. I heard a gasp and some cackling. I barged into the room and saw the rooms in shambles. "Tomoyo," I called out to the empty room. "Matt," I called and I started to get worried. "Mmm," said something in the closet. I cautiously opened the door and out fell Tomoyo, hand cuffed and gagged. "Tomoyo," I cried out and took whatever she had in her mouth out. "Sakura," she gasped. "What," I asked, seeing her frightened voice. "They took Matt," she whispered. "No," I yelled, my legs giving out on me. I went to my knees. "Sakura, behind you," she yelled and I didn't have time because someone hit me over the head. I fell back, thoroughly unconscious.
