Info:
Sakura is no longer in her own home... uh... that may be a little confusing... ok. To put it simply, it jus means that Sakura had moved out.
Tomoyo is STILL in her own home and is dating Eriol, who is still in Japan
Syaoran is in Hong Kong and doesn't know about Sakura's recent move.
Sakura had moved to Kumamoto, also a place in Japan, because of Touya's job.
A new girl had also moved into the Kinomoto's apartment.

***Reader's P.O.V***
"Sa... Sakura?" Tomoyo stammered, staring at Alyssa. Then, she brightened up. 'Maybe she was Sakura's lost twin!' she thought happily. (SN: Boy, she SURE has a wild imagination... -_-;;)
"No, I'm Alyssa, the new girl," Alyssa replied coldly. She had changed and was now dressed in a hot pink halter dress.
Eriol was looking at the girl strangely. Tomoyo, her expression crestfallen, did not notice his look.
"Alyssa honey, who's that?" Mrs Whitman came up behind her.
"Oh, hi! Who are you?" Mrs Whitman smiled. Alyssa was rolling her eyes at her mother's cheerfulness.
"I'm Tomoyo Daidouji and this is my boyfriend, Eriol Hiiragizawa," Tomoyo smiled politely, trying not to notice at Eriol's stare. (SN: She FINALLY noticed Eriol staring... -_-;;)
'Is Alyssa really THAT pretty?' she looked self-consciously at her own purple skirt and white blouse, mistaking Eriol's stare. 'I seem like a child standing next to her. I wish Sakura-chan were still here' she thought sadly.
"I'm Emily Whitman, Alyssa's mother. Why don't you come in for a cup of tea?" she gestured towards the living room, where the boxes were. "I'm sorry. The house is not in a very um... tidy state now," she said apologetically.
"That's ok. We need to be going now anyway," Eriol said, finally snapping out of it. Tomoyo nodded, anxious to get a GOOD talk with Eriol.
As they waved their good-byes, Eriol's face turned anxious again. But before he could say anything, Tomoyo exclaimed, "Look at the time! Syaoran's going to arrive any minute now!" she said frantically.
Eriol just nodded distractedly as he continued walking towards his house--- at a VERY fast rate. Tomoyo panted as she hurried to catch up with him.
"What's up with you? Can't you just use your magic and get us to your house? she panted.
"Sshhh... I'll explain later. I can't use my magic now," he said as he hailed a cab. They sat in silence throughout the whole journey back.
Once they reached their stop, Tomoyo hurriedly pain the driver a twenty and rushed off without getting her change, dragging Eriol along with her.
"Ok, spill," she said simply as they entered the house.
"Wait till Syaoran get here first," Eriol said calmly. Just then, the doorbell rang. Tomoyo practically threw down her bag and rushed towards the door.
"Hi, Tomo----," Syaoran greeted halfway before he was dragged off by Tomoyo. "What's THAT for?" he asked, looking curiously at her. But Tomoyo just sat down and looked at Eriol, who nodded.
"Enid, please bring Mr Li's luggages to the guestroom," he said, then turned to Syaoran and Tomoyo. "Ok, first of all, Syaoran, I hate to tell you this, but, Sakura has moved to Kumamoto, actually, her whole family had moved there yesterday because of Touya's job," he began calmly.
"WHAT?!? WHY DIDN'T SHE TELL ME?!?!" he demanded.
"She wanted to, but I guess she was busily packing and crying to remember," he continued. "Anyway, that's not the point. You see, Tomoyo and I went to her house to visit the new neighbours just now. Her name is Alyssa Whitman. She's Sakura's age, has Sakura's size six figure, Sakura's emerald eyes, and the same auburn hair as Sakura. The only difference is that her hair is longer. Unfortunately, there's another difference. Something that neither of us would like to hear. She has also got Sakura's powers, only hers is black," he looked away, knowing is Syaoran's reactions.
"What else do you know?" he said quietly, his voice tense.
"She's Sakura's clone," Eriol was about to continue when Tomoyo shrieked.
"I knew it! When I first met her just now, I thought they were twins," she said excitedly.
"I know you're excited, Tomoyo-chan. But at least let me continue first. Clow Reed's sister, Kimberly Reed, was jealous of his powers. So, she created a bunch of cards behind his back, called the Crystal Cards, named after her best friend, Crystal Stone, who died in an accident. And unfortunately, Clow Reed was the one who killed her. He did not know that destroying Crystal's pearl bracelet would mean destroying her too. One of the Crystal Cards is very powerful. It is called the Stone Card. It turns whoever the owner hates into stones. Fortunately, Kimberly only had enough powers to create 20 cards. The Stone, the Colour, the Sound, the Tidiness, the Music, the Shatter, the Wall, the Mind, the Fears, the New, the Old, the Speed, the Cut, the Sight, the Vines, the Grow, the Shrink, the Electric, and the two most powerful of all after the Stone--- the Love and the Hate," he shook his head sadly.
"I didn't even know Clow Reed had a sister. And what do you mean when you said that Sakura is a clone?" he asked curiously.
"She's not. She's the original. Alyssa is the clone. Kimberly overheard Clow Reed talking to Yue and Kero about his death and Sakura being the one to capture the cards. She also heard him saying something about his death causing her own death too. So, she decided to do something about it. And somehow, she cast a spell to have an identical baby like Sakura once she was born," Eriol explained.
"And Tomoyo? I did not want to use my powers just now because I do not want Alyssa to know that I have powers too. I want to have the element of surprise," he said.
"So, what do we do now?" Tomoyo asked quietly.
"We wait," Eriol said.

I know, I know. A very short chapter, considering that I took 6 weeks to update it… and it may be confusing too. But if you don't understand anything, just email me at amber2188_gal@hotmail.com. I'll update my other chapters in a week, if I get reviews... so, please R+R!!!
