Hello everyone! I'm back rather quickly this time, ne? Yes, well, I thought I'd work on it. Now, as for my other fic, Neko-chan, I can't say the same, though I promise as soon as Future is done and over, I'll finish it! Well, enough of that, on with the show...err, story!

"Oww! Get off my arm! Don't touch me you useless hunk of scrap metal!" Sakura yelled at the robot "escorting" her. The bot simply beeped a warning tone at her and she continued in a raging silence.
Sakura and Syaoran had been captured and were now being taken somewhere, though they weren't quite sure where. They were walking down a sapphire blue hallway, which led to a spectacularly ornamented door covered in real jewels of many different shades of blue. When they reached the door, they were told to wait.
"Wow! For a stupid robot king, this guy doesn't have to bad of taste in things!" Sakura said in awe as they seated themselves. They were now in a beautifully decorated room of the color red. The walls were covered in blood red rubies, while the floors were simply covered in red tiles. They sat on plush, comfortable chairs, also of the color red, though in a lighter shade but not quite pink.
"Yeah," Syaoran commented, "I guess he likes his guests to be comfortable before they die." Sakura scowled at him. He shrugged his shoulders and decided that staring at the floor would be more productive. Suddenly, Sakura shuddered.
"What's wrong? Are you cold?" Syaoran asked. His face and eyes were filled with concern. Sakura shook her head.
"No, I'm fine. It's just..." Sakura started.
"It's just what?" Syaoran urged. Sakura shook her head, but continued anyway.
"Well, do you think he'll kill us?" Sakura asked, looking up finally. Her emerald eyes showed worry, while her face showed content calm. Syaoran shook his head 'No'.
"No, Sakura, I don't. Even if he tried, we can beat him! It was just a joke, even though it wasn't funny. I'm sorry," Syaoran said as he bowed his head down. Sakura sighed.
"That's alright," she said with a forced smile, even though she was trembling, badly. Suddenly, without warning, the door at the other end of the waiting area opened. They couldn't see inside but stepped forward.
"Please, join me," a deep voice said from inside the dimly lit room. Sakura and Syaoran stepped cautiously into the room. The double doors closed behind them with a muffled click.
"So nice of you to join me. One of you for the second time, even," the voice said. Syaoran narrowed his eyes, attempting to see better. Sakura, who was to the left of Syaoran, was glaring into the darkness, trying to get a glimpse of the mass murderer that she hated so much.
"Perhaps a bit of light would make our meeting a bit more pleasant, hmm?" he said with an air of polite mockery. With the clap of his hands, the room was filled with light. As they looked around, Sakura and Syaoran could see that they were in a gorgeous emerald throne room.
"Now then, isn't that much better?" their captor asked. Sakura looked up at it, but wasn't expecting what she saw. Instead of a fully mechanical man, as she had thought he would be, he was a well-built, rather handsome human male. Sakura gasped.
"Not what you expected me to be, am I?" he asked with a smug smirk. Realizing that she was staring at the man in shock, Sakura quickly regained her composure and put back on her look of calm, impenetrable fury.
"No. I thought you'd be a machine, just another piece of ruble. But man or machine, I'm going to take you down either way!" Sakura said with confidence. The man merely laughed.
"Not likely, my child. You see, I cannot and will not be defeated," he said, also with much confidence. This time, Sakura laughed.
"Syaoran," she said turning deadly serious again, "whatever you do, don't interrupt our fight. This is my fight and you will not interfere." Syaoran nodded obediently, though he knew that if things got bad, he would take down this "Great Leader" guy himself.
"Syaoran," Sakura said as she turned towards him, "the Time Portal is over there at the far end of the room. Go back to your own time. And don't look back." Syaoran stared at the young woman in front of him. So different form the Sakura in his time, yet almost exactly the same. But this time, he shook his head.
"No, I won't leave you to fight alone," he said. Sakura scowled. It was quite obvious that she wanted to fight him alone, but Syaoran didn't care.
"Talking never got anyone anywhere!" the "Great Leader" exclaimed as he jumped at Sakura with a sword in hand. Sakura screamed.
"Sakura! NO!!!"

Wahahahahahaha! And so the great battle begins. The next chapter will up soon cause Future is almost done! Oh, and I think I'll be raising the rating from PG to PG-13 because of violence in the next chappie! Sorry, please don't abandon me for that!!!! I'm sorry, but I have "plans" for the stories end! So, sayonara minna-san!
