Fate Changes Course
Chapter 10 (the last one!)
KKC: (packing bags) Oh! Hello! I didn't see you there...
Clow: I know you sensed me my feline friend!
KKC: So what if I did!? What does it matter? Yesterday, he... they didn't come...
Clow: I know...
KKC: Why?
(Touya and Yue a.k.a.Yukito/Yuki enters)but quietly and in hiding behind the curtains
Clow: That I cannot answer you... for even I don't know where they were yesterday
KKC: Anyway, thank you... for everything!
Clow: you're welcome! Would you mind if I offer you a hand?
KKC: No, not at all, go right ahead! Disclaimer-
Clow: KKC does not-
Touya: (come out of hiding) own CCS or
Yue: (follows Touya) any of the characters
KKC: You guys...(tears in her eyes)
Chapter 10 (last chappie) Go on! You know you want him! Admit it! (Nudge nudge)
Sun shone from my window, as I shielded my eyes from its glaring rays. I stood up from bed and walked towards my brown closet to take out my luggage and my clothes. Today was the day me and my family were leaving Japan, at first I thought that it was cool and wonderful to leave the place that gave you your miseries, but when I saw Touya saying goodbye to Mizuki-sensei, I felt something was wrong, but more of missing, like something was torn from me, like a diary missing its pages, like a flower with no color and petals... somehow that's how I feel. Leaving this country means leaving my best friends behind, although we would keep in touch through mails and all, it wouldn't be like before... staying at the park, our backs against our favorite tree, looking at the clouds pass by, imagining shapes, pictures, animals and a lot more, I'm sure gonna miss them... Eriol-kun, Tomoyo-chan... and... I shook my head at the thought of him, ever since that incident I understood what free will was about, I understood that love was just a game played by two people, that trust was just their plaything, and that fate was not magic it's a curse... it toys with each and every living creature that can walk, it resembles a mask that covers a person's real features, then after a while it removes the mask and shows the other what a real jerk the opposite can be, love was just a feeling, nothing special, nothing more and forever it will never exist...
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
Sakura had already dressed up and was now fixing her bag when a knock came through the mahogany door
"Sakura, are you finished?" a familiar voice called out
"Not yet!" Sakura returned
"Need help?" Yukito asked as he opened the door and found Sakura sitting on her oversized luggage, smiling awkwardly
"Heh" Sakura blushed as she scratched her head "Um... I could use a little help..." Yukito helped Sakura fix her bag and taught her the use of a second luggage. Two hours away from the Kinomoto's departure, Sakura noticed that none of her friends came by her house to say goodbye... 'Some friends they are!' she thought loudly as she headed for the car.
"Tomoyo chan! Chiharu chan! Hurry up we might be late!" Rika and the others called out as the two girls pulled a girl out of the shed.
"Tsamei! Wake up! You have a mission to accomplish!" Yamazaki reminded the nervous girl.
"But what if he realizes it's not me or what if he doesn't listen to what I say?" The wrecked girl called out.
"He always listens to Sakura whether it is weird or not!" Chiharu said "That guy is crazy for Sakura... and from what I've heard, he's locking himself in his room, refusing to eat ever since he spoke to Sakura!"
"That's horrible..." Tomoyo whispered as Eriol laid a comforting hand on her shoulder. "I think we should stop this plan... I have a feeling it won't work!"
"Why?" The other girls asked
"Because there is a secret that only Li-kun knows about Sakura that even I don't know..." Tomoyo explained softly "If we want to help either of them we have to make them meet no matter what... but how?"
"Syaoran-sama, Meilin-sama is here to see you" Wei introduced
"Leave me alone, I wish not to speak to anybody at the moment..." Li's faint voice sounded.
"You... YOU OPEN UP THIS DOOR THIS MINUTE!!!" Meilin yelled while kicking the wooden door. Li opened the door and let Meilin in.
"What do you want?" Li started the conversation
"I want to talk!" Meilin said "You're not yourself lately, you don't eat, you rarely go out and you don't communicate with anyone except that bear Sakura gave to you! What is wrong with you?!"
"..."
"How will you go and say your goodbyes if you can't even move?" Meilin sighed
"Say my goodbyes to whom?" Li raised an eyebrow
"Uh oh..." Meilin covered her mouth with her hand
"To whom?!" Li stood up from the bed and faced Meilin
"No one! No one special I mean!" Meilin said
"Who Meilin who?!" Li asked shaking Meilin a bit "It's Sakura..." Meilin finally gave in "I see..." he said as he sat on the ground
"Aren't you gonna catch her?" Meilin said unbelievably
"She hates me"
Sakura look out the window and saw the airport from afar, she sighed as she laid her head on the window. She tightly embraced Kero chan as she thought about her friends.
"Sakura? I can't breathe!" Kero flushed
"Sorry..." She apologized
"All boarders for the United airlines please enter your gate now" The intercom sounded.
"Oh well, guess their not coming after all..." She said softly to herself, she faced the gate and started to follow her brother.
"Sakura-chan!" a voice shouted for her. She spun around and saw a group of people running from the airport guards. Sakura sweat dropped and dropped her bag to greet her friends.
"Tomoyo-chan, you guys made it! I'm so happy!" Sakura told her black haired best friend.
"We're gonna miss you so much!" Chiharu admitted
"Hope you get well soon" Rika added
"Thank you, everyone!" Sakura gratefully said as she picked up her bag and held her best friend's hands in hers. "Promise me you won't forget me!"
"We promise right?" Eriol said as he turned around to look at the others
"Of course!" The others agreed.
"And we promise to visit you whenever we can" Tomoyo said as she removed her hands from Sakura's and embraced her. Sakura pulled away from the hug after a few moments then looked at the gate.
"Gomen... I have to go now," Sakura said as she looked at everyone and bid her goodbye. She got her bag and started to enter the gate. A few minutes later, the gates closed, she was gone.
"Sakura! Matte!" A voice called out, Tomoyo turned at the sound of the voice and smiled at the approaching figures.
"Tomoyo..." The girl panted loudly "Where's Sakura?"
"Gomen Meilin, Tsamei... but she already left..." Tomoyo said calmly.
"You just missed her..." Eriol said as he came out from the crowd of students
"Darn it!" Meilin said in anger
"Ne, Meilin... Li-kun... where is he?" Chiharu asked as she and Yamazaki came forward towards the two heavily breathing girls.
"He... said... he... wanted to... do something..." Tsamei said between breathes When Tomoyo and Eriol heard this, they both looked at each other and smiled.
"Why are you two smiling like idiots?" Meilin asked, an eyebrow raised.
"Don't you get it?" Rika said as she gave the two girls some tissue to wipe their sweat.
"That "something" is the one thing he can never let go of, something very valuable to him than anything else, the most valuable treasure he had since elementary..." Naoko stopped and smiled broadly
"Sakura..." Tsamei finally realized
Sakura set herself onto her seat, it was beside a window and she was next to her father, which was an aisle next to her and her brother behind her. She smiled at her father then looked out the window, she sighed as she thought about the future of her life. She thought about her house, her room, her new friend and a lot more, until she ended at the same topic she hated the most... love... she thought about the guy who would be waiting for her in that country, in her new life... but then she thought... will there be a right guy for her? Since she let go of the most perfect guy for her, will she find another just like him? She thought about it...
"Maybe not..." she whispered to herself as her eyes grew heavy and she fell into deep sleep.
--------------------------Lots of hours later------------------------------
"OSUYO KAIJU!" Touya yelled at her ear after all the passengers except them had already left.
"Wha-" Sakura said as she opened her eyes, carefully looking around her.
"We're here kaiju!" Touya turned around towards the exit, unaware of a fuming chestnut haired behind him. "Don't even think of using your cards... their useless against family remember"
"That's one thing I hate about them, but still, Kero can whip your butt!" Sakura triumphantly.
"If... He was conscious!" Touya replied as he pointed towards a sleeping stuff toy in Sakura's bag. The two went on and on until they got out of immigration, their father walking behind them smiling.
(An hour after Sakura went in the gate)
"Ne, Tomoyo, did you bring your video camera?" Meilin asked
"Yes, why?" Tomoyo replied as she raised her camera as proof
"I love to see how teary eyed Sakura can be when she sees him..." Meilin grinned
"I know what you're thinking... but... we can't get tickets to the United States at this hour..."Tomoyo said softly
"That's where you're wrong!" Meilin said and laughed as she showed Tomoyo four tickets to US.
"When did you get that?" Eriol asked
"Right after I heard the doctor and Sakura's dad talk about moving," Meilin replied.
"Well what are we waiting for? Let's go!" Tsamei told the other three.
"But our flight isn't until later..." Meilin said
"Really? It says here it's about..." Tsamei said as she looked at her watch and at the plane ticket "Right now..."
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
(Sakura's POV)
The moment I left the airplane, I felt someone was watching me but I shrugged the feeling and continued to quarrel with my overly stupid brother. After I left immigration, I felt a cold chill down my spine, when I looked around me and saw no one; I took my passport and went for baggage claim. I took the cart from my brother and went to the place where we claimed our baggage. I stopped the cart when I saw one of our bags. I bent down and picked it up, it was just a small one and it was just a small one so I can handle it. When I picked it up, my eyes widened. I read the tag.
If found please return to the owner, Li Syaoran, United Airlines "He's here?" I asked myself, I felt a feeling of happiness but then a surge of anger pushed that happy feeling away.
"Who's here?" A voice in my bag asked me
"Him..." I said with a hint of sadness
"The brat? Hmm... I see, maybe, just maybe, he really meant what he said the other day..." Kero said
"What are you talking about? Of course it's not real, if you saw him in the dance you'll know why I'm telling you he doesn't mean anything he's just full of lies!" I said with a strong feeling of hatred.
"How would you know if he's telling the truth or not?" Kero asked with suspicious
"I just know!" I pouted, then I felt that feeling again, that cold chill "Who's there?!"
"Um... can I have my bag back?" A certain guy asked me.
"Here! You can have it!" I said bitterly as I threw his bag at him. "By the way, I'll ask you... where's your girlfriend?"
"Well, she's actually standing in front of me..." He said softly
"What?" I asked
"..." Li stayed silent for a moment, before I knew it he was only few inches away from me. He inched closer and until he brushed his lips against mine. I tried to pull away, but my feet won't let me, I tried to push him, but my arms were not moving, I tried to think but my mind just won't think straight, I was lost... He pulled away from me and faced me our eyes meeting together.
"I know you might hate me for what I did just now, or maybe you would just slap me on the face or even kick me, but I don't mind... I promised before that I will never hurt you and I'm going to keep it until I live, hit me or do something to me, I'll not regret... like how I will not regret being with you" Li said as he held my hands in his.
I took away my hands and looked down on the floor. It was obvious that my eyes were filled with tears cause I couldn't see a thing, I tried and tried to hold my tears but they just fell more, finally I couldn't ignore my feelings and I faced him. I raised my arm and slapped him across the face, my hand against his face made a soft echo throughout the whole place, it made a red mark on his left cheek.
"Syaoran-kun no BAKA!" I said as I finally smiled and jumped towards him with my arms wide open, he caught me and encircled his arms around me as I planted a soft kiss on his lips, and finally now, my worries were over and a new day for me has begun.
THE END FINISH FIN
A/N: OK it is finally finished! How do you like it? And by the way, about Meilin and the others... they made it ok, but they missed everything, their parents were worried of course and Eriol and Tomoyo finally had babies.... Er .... I mean they finally admitted to each other their true feelings! THE END please review! thanks
