I RE-WROTE THE ENDING ON CHAPTER 3 SO READ THE RECAP

Recap on last chapter:

"What a stuck-up, arrogant, supercilious, big-headed, vain, over-grown COW!" Sakura yelled in fury. With Tomoyo snickering beside her. "WHATS SO FUNNIE?" Tomoyo couldn't hold it in any longer. She burst out laughing, tears streaming down her cheeks and clutching her stomach, but that wasn't the end of it she actually FELL on the floor POUNDING it with her fists in her fit of laughter. When she finally recovered from her… really… odd and peculiar moment… she took a deep breath and said, "DID YOU SEE THAT POMPOUS IDIOTS FACE?!!" and started laughing again. Sakura was about to laugh as well when all of a sudden her head shot up…

CLOW CARD!

"TOMOYO!! HURRY!! I sense a clow-card!!" Tomoyo immediately stopped laughing, grabbed Sakura by the arm and ran to her room.

¤ minutes later ¤

"AHHH!!!! SAKURA!! YOU LOOK SO KAWAII!!! Hohohohohoho!!!" Tomoyo pulled out her camera and started jumping around to catch Sakura in different directions to get a full look at the dress. Sakura was wearing one of Tomoyo's one of a kind costume. It was black and white with a hat. The hat was all black with white shape of a diamond on either sides. The outfit she was wearing was also all black with white diamond shapes all around which went with solid black shorts and boots that had white diamonds on the sides up.

"If only Hiryuu could see you now!" Tomoyo looked stricken. "Oh my… I'm so sorry Sakura…"

"No its okay."[[ this is similar to the episode where she catches the illusion card, and the outfit is when she first meets the illusion card.]] they quickly left running into the forest… and Tomoyo bumped into someone.

"Tomoyo? Where are you going?"

"Sakura felt a precense. I have to go now bye!"

"wait!! Who was Sakura talking about?? Who did Eriol take away??"

Tomoyo walked up to Syaoran and showed him a sketch book. He looked. Inside was Sakura and another person hugging each other.

"That is Hiryuu… Sakura's love." with that Tomoyo took the sketchbook and ran into the forest. Syaoran stood in shock and finally ran into the forest as well. All of a sudden they both heard Sakura scream out a name.

"HIRYUU!!!"

[[gonna brind Kero up in this chappie ^-^]]

Chapter 4 : Hiryuu Returns…or not

*tap tap tap tap tap* Sakura ran as fast as she could looking for the clow card and stopped by a lake. The surroundings were clear except for the trees behind Sakura. 'I can feel it. Its here… but where?' she walked near the lake and looked around and saw something… or more like…someone. She felt her heart skip a beat and gasped. That thing… that person in the lake…

"Hiryuu…" she whispered and felt tears spring up in her eyes. "HIRYUU!!!" she screamed.

¤Tomoyo's pov¤

What?? Hiryuu? But how? She ran faster and saw Sakura's figure.

"Sakura wha--" Tomoyo stopped and stared at where Sakura was staring at. It was Hiryuu. 'how did he get here?? What… no way…'

¤back to Sakura¤

She stepped into the lake. She took out her key and shouted, "RELEASE!" and it turned into a staff. "WATERY" the watery card put Sakura into a little bubble.

*FLAP FLAP FLAP*

"SAKURA! THAT WILL ONLY LAST FOR A LITTLE BIT SO HURRY!"

She looked back and saw Kero in his true form. "Hiryuu is here!!" she yelled and Kero looked ahead and saw Hiryuu's form. 'that's not possible…' he thought.

Sakura was walking towards the figure. Hiryuu's arms were stretched out ready to embrace her. "Hiryuu…" she said quietly, "where have you been?" she reached out and hugged him. "Hiryuu… why won't you answer me?" she didn't notice Hiryuu pulling her down under water, she didn't notice Syaoran shouting and yelling for her to come back tears almost springing into his eyes, she didn't notice Tomoyo crying and sobbing and screaming for her to stop and come back, she didn't notice Kero flying over to her yelling something… all she noticed was… "Hiryuu…" she whispered and closed her eyes.

***

She gasped. 'I can't breath!!!'. She opened her eyes and tried to swim back up but something was holding her down. She looked to see what was holding her down.

Hiryuu.

"LET ME GO!!!" she tried to scream but only bubbles escaped her mouth. 'Why is he doing this?? What is he doing??' She started losing conciounse the only thing she saw last was auburn eyes and she blacked out.

She woke up to the cold hair and coughed and sputtered. She was on Kero's back flying back to a sobbing Tomoyo and looked around and saw an unconscious Syaoran laying next to her. "Syaoron?? WAKE UP!! SYAORAN!!" she felt a warm drop of water on her palm… she was crying? 'why am I crying?' but quickly pushed that thought aside. "SYAORAN WAKE UP YOU STUPID BAKA!!" she started sobbing and didn't know why. His eyes fluttered open.

"Sakura?"

She looked up. "SYAORON!!" she screamed and was about to hug him but felt warm arms embrace her… Syaoran was hugging her. When he realized what he was doing he quickly let go blushing.

Sakura sat there. Dumbfounded. The landed and Sakura got off and went to Tomoyo. Tomoyo flung herself onto Sakura in a really tight hug. She quickly remembered Hiryuu.

"Hiryuu!!," she said, "We need to get him out!! He's still there!!" before anyone could say a word she yelled "WATERY" and the same bubble formed around her. She ran off back to the lake hearing something from Tomoyo, "WOULD HIRYUU REALLY HURT YOU??" and went underwater. There he was again. He went over and hugged her tight. The bubble was fading off. "Let go Hiryuu! Lets get back up!! I can't breath…" she was getting drowsy again… 'WOULD HIRYUU REALLY HURT YOU??'

"NO!!!" she screamed and summoned the strength (?)[[someone correct me on that]] card and swam up quickly Hiryuu still holding on to her trying to keep her down. She re-surfaced and gulped in air and looked at Hiryuu but… it wasn't him. It was his shape and some sort of pattern.

"I KNOW THAT PATTERN! IT'S A CLOW CARD!!" Kero shouted.

The card dove back into the water. "WATERY!" the lake water shot up in the air having a wall of water around Sakura and Sakura standing on the water. There in the middle was the clow card. "BACK TO YOUR TRUE SHAPE! CLOW CARD!!!" it became a card and flew to her hand. Kero came and flew her back on land.

"This is the ILLUSION card. It shows people what they want to see," Sakura, Tomoyo and Syaoran gathered around, "It shows each person whatever is in their heart. We all saw Hiryuu because we heard Sakura and we all felt that he would appear." he finished.

"But what about Syaoran? He's never seen Hiryuu before." Sakura said.

"I saw his picture… Daidoji showed me." he said matter-of-factly. "Let's all go back to the castle now."

"Kero return to your other form" Kero's wings engulfed his body and he turned into a cute little yellow stuffed anime with wings and a bushy tail.

"AHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHA!!! THE Cerberus is a STUFFED DOLL?? AHAHAHAAH!!!!!!!" Syaoron had laughed so hard tears were forming in his eyes.

"SHUT UP LITTLE BOY!" growled Cero and went to sit on Tomoyo's shoulder.

"I'm NOT A LITTLE BOY!" Syaoron yelled and was about to charge at Cero when Sakura spoke up.

"Thanks Syaoran."

He turned bright red. "HUH? Thanks for what??"

"Thanks for helping me back there."

".. umm… yea…" and they all started to walk towards the castle.

"so… you're the cardcaptor huh?" Syaoran spoke to kill the silence.

"uhh… yea…" Sakura replied shakely. She was feeling a little dizzy from using so much energy today.

"are you okay?" he asked as Sakura almost ran into a tree.

"oh.. Yea.. Im just fi--" she fainted.

"Sakura?!" he caught her in his arms. "Sakura??" he heard her snoring lightly.
'T-T she fell asleep???' he thought. He carried her and started walking back towards the castle again. Tomoyo and Cero were way ahead of them.

He looked down at the peaceful Sakura sleeping. 'she's so pretty…' before he knew what he was doing he started leaning almost closing the distance between their faces…
