~* Story *~

Sakura ~*~*~*~

As Sakura headed into the garage she had a lot of things on her mind. Different Images were flashing through her mind at lightning speed. When Ally had shown up she had suddenly felt something from Dillon. It was weird. It felt kind of like an aura or something but that couldn't be. Only Angels and Demons had those right? And besides she hadn't felt anything like that since she had arrived on earth. Did her mother not say that she would lose all her abilities when she left. . . or was it just something she had heard. She shook her head. She couldn't remember. But one thing was clear, why could she feel anything coming from Dillon like that. It felt cold and almost scary. What ever it was it was bad and he suddenly wasn't the guy she had known for the past couple of weeks and it wasn't a pleasant feeling.

"Sakura! Where Have you been?" she jumped out of her trance and looked up to see Ray polishing her car.

She forced and smile." I'm sorry I lost track of time."

"Are you ready for the big race?" he asked noticing the change in attitude but decided not to ask about it. She needed to concentrate on the race.

"Yea I'm ready." She said pushing all her thoughts into the back of her mind and putting on a face. "Let's win this thing!" she slid into the drivers seat and cranked the car. She didn't have any time for warming up, but she didn't need it.

She rolled up to the starting line next to her opponent. The track crew was running around making sure everything was in order. People were screaming from the stands. Sakura rested her head back against the seat and closed her eyes. " Why is this night going so wrong?" she thought to herself.

Syaoran ~*~*~*~*~

He was running toward the Race Track. He could here the yelling and hoped he wouldn't be too late. For some reason he couldn't explain it felt as if he was being drawn by this girl. Sure he had never met her. But it still felt as if she was of great importance to him. Never mind that . . . as soon as he found this girl and made sure she was ok he would find Dillon and kill his sorry ass so he could never ruin anyone's life again.

He snaked his way through the crowd until he got to the gates. He looked down the track just in time to see the light turn green and the two cars take off and begin to climb to enormous speed and amazing time.

Sakura ~*~*~*~

'Three . . . Two.' Sakura counted the seconds as the light as it went down from red to orange and then green. "Go" she said to herself as she switched gears and hit the pedal.

One of the many things she'd learned since she got here was the key to wining was the start off. And her most recent one was perfect. She glanced down at the speedometer and smiled at the rate she was climbing.

A little black box with a bleeping light was activated by the increase in speed and began its countdown to automatic detonation.

Dillon ~*~*~*~

He hoped into his car and began to exit the huge estate. He had ample time to get his ass as far away from there as possible. He knew once someone recognized him it wouldn't be long before the 'Great Syaoran' found out. And when he found out there would be hell to pay.

He smirked. But wasn't that what he was supposed to do? He had been sent here to bring out the evil in Syaoran. His father had gotten a call from some demon in Hades complaining about his son that didn't . . . wouldn't kill for fun and had asked if he could help him. His father had agreed to send someone in to help so he sent . . . me to cause a little trouble in the guy's life. Who knew I'd have to kill the sweet little thing I'd met a couple of weeks ago. She was the best canadate to remind the 'little demon' of his loss and bring out some of the evil his father was sure he had.

He grinned an evil grin. Sure Ashley had been nice to have a little fun with. But Sakura . . . she was an angel. 'And didn't I know it' he laughed to himself. When he had gotten a call from his dad in Hell and he had told him that there was a certain 'Fallen Angle' on earth and that I should use her to twist the knife a little further when she died . . . or should I say was killed the same way Ashley had been killed. I simply couldn't pass up the opportunity.

' Poor Sakura.' A picture of her perfect body had been burned into his evil twisted mind. ' The object of perfection . . . too bad I couldn't have keep her around. 'She certainly had made the past couple of week's extraordinary.

Sakura ~*~*~*~

She glanced down at the speedometer. Reaching over 100mph and still climbing all in just a few seconds. Just then all her senses were flooded with recognition and a wave of danger washed over her. She felt something was wrong. VERY WRONG. She quickly checked the gages . . . nothing. Then she saw in her mind a bomb that was planted on the bottom of her car.

She unhooked her seat belt and pushed open the door and attempted to jump out just as the bomb detonated and the force sent her flying out of the car and she slammed into the inner wall with astonishing force. The last thing she saw was her car in flames in the middle of the track . . . she couldn't hear anything. ' Maybe I'll finally get to see Heaven after all' she though before her world went completely black.

Syaoran ~*~*~*~*~

He was entering the pits when all of a sudden all his demon senses returned in full force. He felt things he hadn't felt in ages. There were several auras near by. They were faint and seemed to be clouded over . . . as if they weren't completely angel or demon but somewhere in the middle . . . but then he felt a very strong pink one. It was . . . incredible. All the senses he was getting from this one girl. It had to be from the driver of the little black car. Then he remembered Dillon and the bomb.

Next thing he knew he had been thrown off his feet by a huge explosion. He looked around for the source and saw the car in flames and there by the wall a girl lying in a pool of her own blood. Then he felt the pink aura weakening. The bright light was dying. He got up and ran toward the girl. People were picking themselves up from where they had fallen and helping the ones around them. Then screams could be heard as people realized what had happened and saw the female racer lying in a pool of blood.

In The Stands ~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"OMG! SAKURA!" Mei Lin screamed after seeing what happened. She began to cry along with Tomoyo who was wrapped in Eriol's arms. " Let's go! We have to help her!" she cried out through tears as she grabbed Tomoyo and began running toward the nearest entrance onto the track. She would have jumped over the fence but considering the walls were several feet in the air she decided against it.

"I'll call for help," Eriol yelled from behind. He and Chase were having a hard time keeping up with the two girls.

Syaoran ~*~*~*~*~

Running toward the girl, he could tell she was badly hurt. Hell anyone could see that. But he also felt something that he doubted anyone else could feel. He felt her spirit dying. Like a fire going cold on a freezing winter night.

Once he reached the girl he knelt beside her. Carefully he pulled her into his arms. " Hey wake up." He tried. No response was given and he began to really worry. " Please wake up. Come on don't die on me. Do you really want to die out here on a race track?" he asked the unconscious girl. He brushed a few strand of hair off her face so he could see the girl clearly.

"Wow . . . you're beautiful." He said without thinking. ' What am I saying?" he scolded himself as he looked down at the injured girl in his arms.

~*~*~*~

Unseen to anyone the deep green aura of an amber-eyed boy wrapped itself around the weakening pink aura of an unconscious emerald-eyed girl.

A few minutes passed as they stayed this way. The young man holding the girl in his arms then the pink aura began to reach back as it grew stronger. Soon the two were wrapped around each other.

~*~*~*~

Syaoran ~*~*~*~*~

Syaoran looked up when he felt the pink aura regaining its strength. A wave of relief washed over him. He was staring at the girl in his arms. He noticed how she seemed to be regaining her color. Her cheeks were flushed and her lips looked so tender he had an urge to lean down and kiss them. He held himself back and then her eyes began to flutter open.

Then bright emerald eyes meet fiery amber ones and time seemed to stop as they stared into each other's eyes. Nothing could be seen or heard. They just sat there taking every aspect of the other in.

~*End of Chapter*~

A/N: So what did you guys think? they finally meet. lol. and just to clear something up . . . Heaven and Haven are two diff. places. Just like Hell and Hades. Haven and Hell are like where u go when u die and Hades and Haven are where just regular angles and demons live. Someone said something about that and just wanted to make that clear. Well I hope you guys enjoyed it. Please review and let me know if it was good. I'll try to update soon. Until then. . .
