Hi everyone! I really hope that you all liked my first two chapters! I am really trying to make them enjoyable. Because then I won't even read them. And that is not a good sign. Well, I obviously don't own Card Captors, so read on my fellow authors! (I also don't own the songs in here.)

Chapter Three: The First Signs of Evil

Sakura looked at Syaoran. " Looks like it's time to get the Cards out again." Syaoran nodded in agreement. Touya, who had seen the trouble they had caused Sakura before stood up in a mad rush.

"No! I won't allow it!" He said and went right over to Syaoran and punched him. Sakura was so surprised that she just sat there for a few moments, the same could be said for Syaoran. She then regained conscience thought and glared at Touya.

" Touya!!!! What was that for!!!!!! I can't believe that you just did that! It was completely uncalled for! Say your sorry this instant!" She screamed at him. Touya was taken aback by her sudden outburst.

" But, Sakura, he-" Touya started, but was cut short by Sakura shooting up out of her seat and facing him, her face inches from his. She was standing on her tiptoes.

" No! I won't hear it! That was totally uncalled for and you know it! Say you're sorry!" She seethed in anger. Touya, Kero and Syaoran had never seen her so upset. 'I guess she really does love him.' Thought Touya, somewhat in annoyance since he could care less about the boy sitting wide eyed behind his sister. Well, actually, he was a man now not a boy. He did stand at a good 6" tall. Even so, Touya was 6"2'.

Touya looked to Syaoran and, sighing a great sigh, whispered something.

" Sorry, what was that?" Sakura said.

" I'm sorry.there you happy! I still don't like him! He breaks your heart and then comes back with news like this! Some guy!" He pointed at Syaoran. But what surprised him, was that.Syaoran.was.crying. Not bawling or anything like that, but you could definitely make out some tears falling silently down his cheeks.

Sakura turned around to see Syaoran. She gasped, "Syaoran, what.?" She whispered.

He looked up to face her. Smiling a weak smile he opened his mouth to speak. " He is right Sakura. For eight years, I never wrote, I never talked to you. I left you suddenly and never told you how I felt. But." His voice suddenly got stronger and he stood up to face Touya. " But if I had stayed here and embraced my feelings for your sister, even if I had stayed in contact had I left, Sakura would have been killed. You see, my clan feels that if I love and marry outside, that I would be forsaking them. And since I am supposed to be the Li clan leader now, they could not have that. So to make sure I married inside the family, they would have done the unthinkable, and killed you Sakura. They are that ambitious. So the only way I could think of saving you was to leave and never contact you. No matter how much it hurt. I became an outcast the moment I turned my back on my mother and ran out of that house. So, Touya, do you still think I'm a no good shit face?" He finished wrapping his arm around Sakura's waist and pulling her toward him.

Touya sputtered in annoyance. He didn't know what to say, so he just nodded and walked out calmly. Sakura and Syaoran smiled at each other. Syaoran lowered his head and kissed her soft, yet passionately. Sakura smiled to herself. But unfortunately they weren't alone. " Eh hem.you guys still have an audience." Kero said. Both Sakura and Syaoran face faulted and fell backwards onto the floor anime style.

" Hey, Syaoran, how would you like to go to singing tonight with me, Tomoyo, and Eriol?" She said while they were sitting up in her room talking.

Syaoran thought for a moment. " Sure, I haven't heard you sing in a while. I wouldn't mind hearing you sing again." He smiled at her.

" That's great!" Sakura yelled in happiness. Syaoran just nodded and smiled.

* * *Later that Night * * *

"Tomoyo!" Sakura yelled as Syaoran and her approached the little bar place thing.

" Sakura!" They ran to each other and embraced in a friendly hug. Syaoran walked up to Eriol and shook hands with him.

" Good to see you again Syaoran."

" The same here." Suddenly Sakura grabbed Syaorans' hand and led him inside followed closely by the other two. They found a booth and sat down. Sakura pulled out a CD and a piece of paper from her pocket in her jeans.

"Tomoyo! I'm going to sing this one." She showed her friend.

" That's the one that you wrote after he left." She said.

" Yeah, I want to see what he thinks. Okay Syaoran?" She had turned to him. He smiled and nodded. Sakura walked up to the stage. She tapped the microphone and cleared her throat. Everyone was looking at her now. " Hi everyone!" They all waved high to her too.

" Is she this popular here?" Syaoran asked.

" Oh yeah, we come here every Thursday night. People come here just to hear us." Tomoyo answered.

" I'm going to sing a song that I wrote. The fast version, the slow one would probably put you all to sleep." She said smiling; everyone laughed when she said that. " Well, here it goes." She said and pooped in the background music.

(Back ground music) I've been having these wired thoughts lately Like. Is any of this for real? Or not?

(Sakura) Oh! Yeah! You're giving me! To many things.lately! You're all I need! Oh no. You smiled at me! And said! Don't get me wrong I love you But does that mean I have to meet Your father? When we are older you'll understand What I meant When I said No, I don't think life is quite that simple!

(Chorus)

When you walk away You don't hear me say Please! Oh baby! Don't go! Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight! It's hard to let it go!

Hold me. Whatever lies beyond this morning! It is a little later on! Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all! Nothings like before! Hold me. Whatever lies beyond this morning! It is a little later on! Regardless of warnings the future doesn't scare me at all! Nothings like before!

Yeah! Oh!

When the song ended there was a deafening sound of applause. Sakura smiled and looked right a Syaoran. He smiled back and nodded his approval. Little did they know that a young man was watching them in the shadows.

" Soon, very soon, I will take you, my beautiful Sakura, and there won't be anything that your boyfriend can do about it. Heh heh heh heh.cough gag cough.eh hem.heh heh."
