Chapter: 2

Sakura slowly opened the door, and was so thankful to god, for not letting it creak or make a sound. She saw that the room was dark except for the lit up tank. She saw Tomoyo sleeping in Eriol's arms and she smiled.

She rushed over to the glass rectangular prism and lightly tapped on it. Kero was clinging to her so he was right along side her.

"Tomoyo! Eriol!" She whispered. And Eriol was the only one who opened his eyes, and they immediately widened.

"Sakura! What are you doing here? Did anyone see you come?" Eriol asked worridly as Tomoyo still slept peacefully in his arms.

Sakura gave him a smirk with her eyes smiling. "Eriol! What do you think I am, an amateur? Of course no one saw me. Don't worry about me, let's just get you two out of there."

"And what do you suggest?" Eriol said pointing at the electrical wire that surrounded the cage. "My magic is useless in this cage."

"Exactly why I'm here." Sakura smiled.

"Won't Fujitaka sense the use of your magic?" Eriol asked and Tomoyo sleepily opened her eyes. She smiled instantly at Sakura who smiled back at her.

"No. I've been working on my magic a long time with out him knowing." Sakura winked and then completely closed her eyes. Her face lost her smile and went concentrated.

She held the palms of her hands a half inch away from the glass and a bright pink light erupted from her body and coursed to her palms. The wire and glass melted away, as the water stayed in the same shape, until it was big enough for a body.

The light subsided and finally the water started to pour out. Eriol handed Tomoyo gingerly to Sakura who helped her into a sitting position away from the water so her fin could dry, and then helped Eriol.

She tossed them the lab coats and the covered the upper parts of their legs, and Sakura could see the bottom slowly change to human legs. When they had both fully transformed, they got up and covered themselves completely by wrapping the coat around them.

"Kero, show them the way out, and I'll find the research they did on you two." Sakura said that left little room for arguments.

"Sakura! No! I won't leave without you!" Kero said grabbing tighter to her leg.

"Kero," She smiled a warm smile at him that lit up her face along with his. "I'll be okay, it will only take a few moments. You have to help them, I'm sure they miss the ocean water very much. Please Kero, for me?"

"I hate it when you do that." Kero crossed his arms at Sakura's pout. He sighed then gave another kick squeeze to her leg then ran to the door Eriol and Tomoyo following.

"Thank you so much Sakura, you're my very best friend. Be safe. We'll see you in a few seconds." Tomoyo smiled kindly at Sakura.

"You're my best friend too, Tomoyo. Stay safe." Sakura smiled brightly and the others hurrieded out of the door.

She took a look around the large laboratory. She saw three different desks and headed to the nearest one. "Okay...let's see."

She red the title plate at the front of the desk that red 'Dr. Kirk Daisuke'. She shuffled quickly through the few papers on and in his desk but didn't find much about Tomoyo and Eriol themselves.

She went to the next desk and the plague red 'Dr. Syaoran Li'. She scanned a few titles till she found the thing she was looking for. She looked at their two page report, that looked like it had only just been started. She skimmed a few lines and her eyes fell upon a line that made her burst out laughing. It said 'The male specimen, Eriol, has a strong relationship or bond of some sort with the female specimen, Tomoyo.'

Oh, she would have a bit of fun with this.

Suddenly her breath caught in her throat as a strong body pressed against her's from the back. However it was, took her hands into a firm grasp behind her back. "What do you think you're doing?" The voice sent excited chills from her ear to the rest of her body.

Author's Note- Who was that??? Hmmmm.. LOL. Just so you know my chapters will be pretty short, unless you want them longer. But the only way to tell me is in a review!
