Heh! Fried shrimp ball. Reminds me of that little Kero-Spinel adventure... anyway, yes, Kero actually left a clue in his last message. He said: "Kero: murmurs in his sleep Geez... Sakura was crying in bed all last night... I didn't get any sleep... oh.. come back... why are you running away from me, ice cream... cherries... why are you leaving me............". Well, "Why Are You Leaving Me" is the chapter title name! Watch out for more hints like this... Thanks Kikakai, you helped me come up with the idea of this story, well actually I did, but you kinda helped, so... yeah.
Last time, on I Will Never Stop Loving You
In the Hallways
Sakura kept running, tears blinding her vision. She hated him. She hated him! Syaroan Li. The love of her life. The evillest person she'd ever met.
Just then, Syaroan swerved right in front of Sakura, catching her in his arms.
"No!" Sakura screamed, her eyes filled with tears. "Let me go, you imbecile!"
People started looking out the doors.
Syaroan quickly took Sakura into an empty room and locked the door.
"Sakura, I love you!" Syaroan insisted. "Why can't you see that? I'm over that now."
"Let me try this again," Sakura said, her eyes flashing. "You HATED me when I was TEN. You LOVED me when I was TWELVE. You LEFT me when I was THIRTEEN. You BETRAY me when I am SIXTEEN. I can't just let it go!"
Sakura began to cry, louder. "I don't know what to do anymore..."
In her pocket, the Clow Card she created, Hope, had always been glowing. Now, the glow started to fade.
Sakura saw this and understood immediately.
"Listen, Li-kun," she said, and with every tear that fell down her face, and every word she yelled at him, she shattered Syaroan's heart even more. "I loved you." Her teeth started chattering. "But I was blind. And now I can see again."
Syaroan was almost afraid to ask. "What can you see?"
Sakura's emerald eyes gazed in his, almost longing for him to hug her, but washed all her feelings away.
"That I."
She quickly turned, unlocking the door.
"Hate."
She burst open the lock, and turned around to look at him.
Then with a silent, deep breath, she shuddered and said the harshest word she had ever said in her life.
"You."
The door slammed behind her.
Chapter Six: Why Are You Leaving Me?
At school the next day, Sakura was quiet and could not speak to anyone. She would simply refuse it, every now and then. She would angrily talk to her friends, and completely ignore everyone else. She had apologized to Tomoyo and Tomoyo had apologized to Sakura, but Sakura, in her anger, despite her usual kind, friendly nature, had refused to wear one of Tomoyo's battle costumes, setting a sad, yet still strong friendship bond.
"She's still not talking to me," Syaroan said bitterly. At once, Mr. Terada said, "We have a new student today. His name is Eriol Hiiragizawa. Please sit behind Daidouji."
Sakura looked up, surprised. Ooh, he looks nice. Mischievous, a little, but also... cute. Sakura smiled to herself. Good to see you getting over that jerk, Sakura, she thought to herself happily, moving on with the class and started the "welcome-the-new-student' routine...
At break, Eriol came up to Tomoyo and began talking. Sakura was instantly jealous. Usually, Syaroan talked to her, and had fun with her, and Tomoyo just smiled sweetly. But now it was Sakura's turn to move on, and she didn't really like it. Besides, Eriol was cute. All the girls in her class had admitted that, unlike their feelings for Syaroan. Usually the excuse was, "taken", but now the excuse was "jerk". A very good excuse, after they'd heard what Syaroan had done.
Sakura sighed. Syaroan and Meiling. Eriol and Tomoyo.
Just then, Tomoyo's eyes grew dreamy as she went up to Sakura.
"Sakura-chan!" she squealed.
"Yea, Tomoyo?" Sakura asked, instantly depressed.
Tomoyo frowned, clutching her hands into Sakura's. "Sakura-chan..." she started, looking upset. Then her eyes lit up and began shining. "Eriol Hiiragizawa just asked me out!" she squealed. Sakura's heart clenched.
Tomoyo giggled. "And I said yes!" she added. Sakura felt horrible, but she was jealous and angry inside.
At the Hospital
Yes, Meiling was feeling much, much better... knowing that Sakura was doing all her dirty work for her...
Kinomoto Residence
Kero opened his eyes and shrieked out, noticing the calendar. "I've been asleep for three whole years?"
Then he sensed something, and summoned Yue.
"What's going on?" he barked, transforming into Keroberos.
Yue sighed.
"Do you feel it too?"
"Yes, Keroberos."
"I'm worried about her. Where is she? Where am I? Why have I been asleep for so long?"
"Come, Keroberos. We have much to talk about."
Ten Minutes Later
"Whaaat?!"
Afterschool
"Bye-bye, Eriol. See you tomorrow, okay?"
"Sure, Tomoyo. Bye-bye! See you tomorrow, Sakura. Good-bye, Syaroan."
"Yea... whatever, Eriol. See ya." He walked off slowly, heading home.
Sakura huffed, and paused. He wasn't heading home the short way... he was heading to Tomoeda Hospital... for Meiling?! she thought, her mind reeling.
She had forgotten the fact that Yelan was there.. but she was too angry to think anymore...
Her eyes filled with tears, and she began to run.
"S-sakura-chan!" Tomoyo screamed out, trying to run after her. Eriol's eyes widened. "No, don't! She's heading for the Tomoeda Cliffs!"
Tomoyo's eyes looked coldly at Eriol. "How do you know?" she asked.
Then her eyes widened. "Eriol...."
She remembered him...
Why had she forgotten this?
Then her eyes narrowed, and she grew annoyed, for the first time in her entire life.
"Meiling."
Kinomoto Household
"Where is she going?"
"Cliffside."
"Yue, you can't be serious?"
"Of course he can be serious, he's serious, he's the serious kind of guy."
"Oh shut up Keroberos. Is she going to..."
"I think so."
"But why? Can I do something and stop her?"
Kero sighed. "Only he can save her now."
"He?"
There was a pause.
"You mean Syaroan?"
"Yes."
Tomoeda Cliffside
Sakura began to cry, sitting at the drop of the cliff. She looked awful. Her hair was all stringy and wet and her hands were watering up. "Oh... Syaroan..." she sighed.
"Sakura, what are you doing here?" Syaroan asked silently, heading up behind her.
Sakura grew angry and tense. "I'm looking," she said impatiently. "I will be going now."
She gave Syaroan a rough push, and at once, the earth began to shake.
"Aaaaugh! Syaroan, help me!" Sakura pleaded. "I'm about to fall over the edge!"
Syaroan rolled Sakura over, but in the process, leading Sakura to safety, he shook back and began to fall off the cliff.
Sakura's eyes widened with horror. She may not have loved him, but she didn't want him dead!
Or do I? she thought to herself ruefully.
"Sakura... Sakura, help me!" Syaroan cried.
Sakura reluctantly grabbed Syaroan's hand and pulled him up.
She began to think, her mind swirling with emotions.
Her eyes looked up. It was a full moon... a full moon..
"Sakura, you're falling," Syaroan cried, still weak. His arm was torn and was bleeding fast.
Sakura began to slip away from the cliffside.
"Sakura, it's a fifty-foot drop. You'll never make it," Syaroan pleaded.
Sakura was not listening.
She began to steer over the rocky edge.
Then she snapped out of her senses.
She dangled off the edge, her hand the only thing that separated her life and her death.
"Sakura.. I love you... come on, stop kidding around.. please..."
Sakura began to think... everything about Meiling.. her suspicions about Meiling.
"I got it," she whispered to herself. "I know everything now."
Just then, the earthquake began to shake again.
Syaroan had no choice but to back away from Sakura. "Come on, Sakura," he pleaded. "Just hang on a little longer."
Sakura screamed.
A gigantic crack separated Syaroan from Sakura.
Sakura screamed.
"I know, Syaroan-kun! I love you too! And I know everything about Meiling and everything about what happened!" she exclaimed excitedly.
At this, the earthquake stopped instantly, but the crack grew larger and larger.
Sakura saw this and got worried. "Syaroan..." she pleaded. "Get help."
"I can't..."
"Syaroan!"
"Get help!"
"I love you, Sakura."
Sakura paled.
"I'm slipping, Syaroan."
"Come on. Just give me five minutes. Hold on a little longer."
"I can't, Syaroan. I can't."
Syaroan's eyes grew wide. "No... no... you can't..."
"I love you, Syaroan."
"I love you too, Sakura."
Sakura tried to grip herself up and after chanting a spell she managed to get herself off.
She smiled and kissed Syaroan.
At once, a forcefield shook Sakura off Syaroan and threw her back off the cliff.
"Hoeeeeee!" she screamed, her voice shrieking.
Syaroan could hear a hard landing.
"Sakura!" Syaroan began to run towards the forest, and tried to find Sakura.
"Where are you, Sakura?"
"Where are you?"
Then he stopped dead in his tracks and turned around.
"Oh no."
He realized what Sakura had figured out...
Everything about Meiling...
He had to find her!
"Sakura..."
"Where are you..."
"Come on... where are you?"
He desperately looked around, trying to spot her.
He couldn't see her...
He couldn't sense her.. too many spirits...
But he could usually sense her...
He could not sense her aura here..
Did that mean...
Did that mean...
She was gone?
End of Chapter Six
runs away from all the angry SS fans Don't hurt me! This story IS SS, but I CAN put a little twist in it, can't I? Nothing like a good killer shock to advance you to reviewing and finding out what happens to Sakura. Aaaargh! gets jumped on by all the big kids HELP! Or else no more chapters for you! everyone runs away in the fifty-metre radius Heh. That's more like it... anyway...
Yes this is a bit dramatic... but how else could I make a cliffhanger like that? I need a cliffhanger at every chapter, I always do...
I thank the first two reviewers, lil-cb and Kikakai, and I suggest if you want me to update faster, better start reviewing their stories too! Just kidding... but thank you, you guys, and of course, everyone else, who enjoys the story.
Note: No flaming or swearing in my reviews...
P.S. No, I am not evil. I just want to put a little more action into the story, and I am definitely getting to an interesting point, no?
Ja ne! (bye) SSLuva
