Chapter Eleven: Journey to Reclaim
Syaoran stared at the night sky. He had been sitting up on the cliff where Sakura had appeared to him earlier all day. He just could not figure out where he was, or what she was trying to tell him. All he knew was that he had to get back. Or the world was doomed. 'Sakura, where did you go?' He thought. Getting up and brushing himself off he looked out towards the huge structure in the middle of the maze. " I guess, I have to go there.?" He stated more then asked. He started down the cliff, 'this is going to be a long day.'He thought.
~ At the Castle ~
Sakura sat in a beautiful room. Her eyes were blank and lifeless, she felt like she had nothing to live for anymore. The door to the room creaked open and Jerith walked inside. He smiled and walked to her side sitting down. He glanced at her still form out of the corner of her eye. Clearing his throat, he stared straight ahead. " I bet you're wondering why I am doing all of this?" He waited for a reaction. He got none. " Well, you must know my past, I was Clow Reeds pupil. So obviously I was supposed to get the cards when he was gone. But the day came when he died, and as you obviously by now know, I failed to get the cards. They were lost to me. I felt as if I had been cheated of my right. So I built my powers over the years waiting till I could get them back. Then you came along and messed up everything. You were not supposed to get the cards, and you were definitely not supposed to meet that Li boy and get him to help you. He is too powerful, I tried many times to kill him throughout your journey." That made Sakura react. She whipped her head towards him. Her eyes burned into his body, fire burning in them. " So, that is what it took to get you to respond. Well, obviously, you never knew about it. The boy was too protective of you, and didn't want to worry you more. Of course he had foiled every attempt on you personally. Which, mind you, weren't that many. After a while, they ceased completely. I realized that you could be much more valuable to me alive. To be used like I am using you now, as a median to the real world. But your man would've been in the way, so I had to get rid of him. Now, you're mine with no interference." He smiled and looked to her. Sakura glared at him, scrunching the sheets in her fists. Jerith got up and walked to the door. " Have a good day" with that he walked away closing the door behind him.
" Why.why me.Syaoran.please.I miss you." She buried her face in her hands and cried. 'Syaoran, are you really dead?'
~ Lost Somewhere ~
'Syaoran, are you really dead?' Syaoran stopped in his tracks. He could've sworn he had just heard Sakura. Shaking his head he continued on through the thick brush in the forest. He had bee walking for hours and seemed to be going in circles. Syaoran just knew that he had passed the same tree three times already. He sat down on a fallen tree and breathed in deeply. Looking around, he saw nothing but trees and brush for miles all around. He would never get out of here. Suddenly, a bright light flashed in front of him, he covered his eyes. It dimmed down and he removed them only to see himself staring back at him. Syaoran jumped up about to run but was stopped when a hand grabbed his own. " Whoa there, no need to be afraid of me Syaoran, I'm here to help." Syaoran turned to look at himself.
" Who are you?" He asked really confused.
" Me.I'm you." The other person said. " I'm here to help you through this jungle. But you have to allow me to help you. Ya know, I wouldn't even be here had not been for our fiancée." Syaoran growled at that.
" WHAT DO YOU MEAN OUR!!!!! SHE IS MY FIANCEE!!!!!! NOT YOURS!!!!!!" he screamed at the copy.
" Hey! Slow down there cowboy, what did I just say? I am you. So that makes her mine too. Don't worry, I don't exist physically in the real world. I exist only in you." He said turning away and crossing his arms. Syaoran was really confused now. 'Inside me?' He thought.
" What? You exist inside me? But how?"
" Don't you get it by now? You are in a coma." The thing said.
" But, I'm fine, how could I be in a coma?"
" Oh man, I thought that we were smarter then this." Syaoran growled again getting very agitated.
" Just tell me who you are!"
" I'm your conscience you muscle bound thick-headed moron!" He yelled at Syaoran. Syaoran took a step back. Surprised at the sudden outburst. " Your real self is in a coma outside of this place. You are a figment of imagination. You were made to be in this place that the real you made up in your mind! If you can find a way through the maze and get to the structure in the middle which is the equivalent to a door to the outside world. Your real self will wake up and you can go save Sakura. But until then, we're stuck with each other. I must warn you though, your mind is a dangerous place, full of wrong turns and mistakes, of monsters that the real you is still dealing with. You will have to face them and defeat them alone." He finished. Syaoran was stunned.
" But you said that you were here to help me?" He questioned.
" Yes, but I am your conscience. I can only help you with tips on what to do. You are the only one that can actually overcome the troubles ahead. For they are your troubles because this is your mind." Syaoran looked at him.
" Well, I guess I have no choice. So, before we set off, what should I call you?"
" You can call me Li. Since I am the other half of you in a way."
" All right Li. Lets go, I have our fiancée to save." With that, they started off towards the 'door'.
