"Is that so? Well then. Then I have to find out myself." Eriol started
walking away when Yukito asked.
"What are you going to do?"
"Well, for the starters, I will allow Syaoran to die."
"NO! You have no right to take his life away!" Yukito changed into Yue immediately after he heard the threat. "Don't take him away! Sakura will die with a broken heart. That happened when he never wrote to her. Don't do it, if you care for Sakura."
"Oh, now I see. So, am I right to say that Sakura is who she is today because of my cute little descendent?"
"No. It is something worse that I am forbidden to tell except to Tomoyo and Touya."
"Yue, are you sure nothing happened to her yesterday?" Eriol eyed on him suspiciously.
"All I know was that she was her usual self yesterday." Yue lied, not wanting to reveal any information about her meeting with Syaoran.
"Never mind then. Since you refuse to tell me, I guess Syaoran will just have to pay the price for his foolishness."
"Clow Reed!" Yue called out as Eriol started walking away again. When he turned around, Yue continued, struggling to get the words out. "Don't do this to Mistress. Please." He searched for the right words to say, " Please, I beg you. Don't give her this kind of birthday present."
Eriol was moved by Yue's pled. This mighty being that he created was begging for Sakura's sake. "Don't worry. I won't do anything that will make Sakura cry. Trust me."
"But you still will carry out your plan, Clow Reed. You won't change your mind that easily."
"Sakura, no doubt will go through pain and sadness. But it is for her own good."
"Just don't let Syaoran die!" Yue implored, only to receive a sly smile from Eriol and watched him walked away for the third time.
"Mistress! What did I do?" Yue cried out, letting out his anger. It finally registered to him that he just lost his mistress, and it's his fault. "If only I didn't teach her how to switch personalities. Perhaps I might still have Sakura and her sunshine personality. If only, if only. . ."

"What the world is taking him so long?" Tomoyo asked Sakura, after waiting for three mintues. "He is usually punctual."
"Tomoyo dear, what's the freaking handphone for?" Sakura gave her a 'God help her' look and flipped open her handphone. "Tomoyo?"
"Hmm?"
"What is Li's handphone number?"
"Oh you don't know?" Tomoyo lifted up her eyebrow.
"I deleted his phone number." Sakura didn't offer more information. Tomoyo sighed and rattled off his number, while Sakura waited for the call to be connected, Tomoyo started wondering what caused the sudden changed in Sakura. One moment she was excited to see Li. Now, she was addressing him as Li instead of Syaoran.
"Are you getting your sorry ass over here? You are late!" Sakura yelled into the phone at the volume that made Tomoyo cringed. She saw Sakura rolling her eyes and shook her head.
"Three precious minutes wasted on a jerk like you. How annoying!" Sakura snapped and ended the phone call.
"Hey girl! Why are you so pissed with him?" Tomoyo questioned.
"He? He deserved to be treated this way."
"What did he do?"
"Want to know?" Sakura smiled mockingly. When she saw Tomoyo nodding, she retold the story that she told Touya and Fujitaka.
When she was done, Tomoyo just stood there, shell shocked at the way Syaoran treated the innocent wounded Sakura who was struggling to be accept herself. Ultimately, she lost after Syaoran shot her down like a bird.
"Have you told Fujitaka and Touya?"
Sakura nodded. She recalled the scene in the living room a day ago, when she figured out that the real Sakura the two men had loved was really gone. It was about time she told them what happened, and braced for the worst.
--- Flashback---
"Onii-chan, Oto-san, there is something you need to know." Sakura caught their attention after dinner.
"What is it?" Touya asked, studying her so intensely that made her squirm. She looked at the two men, wondering how to phrase it to the two people who loved Sakura the most.
"It is better if we talked about it in the living room."
"No, say it now." Touya demanded, wanting to get it done and over with. 'Something was wrong with her. This is not Kaijuu.'
"Well then. If this is how you want to receive it, so be it." Sakura took a deep breath. "Sakura isn't here anymore."
Touya let out a string of curses and shook his head. "What did you do to her? I want Sakura back. I want my Kaijuu back!" Touya lashed out, taking a step towards her, but was restrained by Fujitaka.
"How did this happen?" He asked in a calmed manner.
Sakura told everything, only omitting Yue out of the story. When she was done, Fujitaka shook his head and questioned. "Why didn't she tell me or anyone of us? She kept it a secret for two years now. And now, she is gone." His eyes were filled with hurt and anguish. His beloved Sakura, was gone. 'I have failed Nadeshiko. I lost our Cherry Blossom. Forgive me.'
"I told Tomoyo." Sakura couldn't help but snapped back. She couldn't handle the heartbreaking atmosphere. The tears and sadness made her uncomfortable
"Now now, don't be mad with us. I know it seems to be her fault or even yours." Fujitaka started explaining. "However, it is our fault,"
"NO! IT'S LI SYAORAN'S FAULT. HE STOLE MY BABY SISTER AWAY FROM ME!" Touya shouted. "I WARNED HIM. I WARNED HIM NOT TO HURT HER! HE DID. HE DID JUST THAT!"
"Hush now Touya. It's no use to push blames and point fingers. We just have to accept the situation and carry on." Fujitaka turned his attention to Sakura. "Now, we are now left with you."
"Yeah, big deal. Live with it."
"I know. But it is kind of strange to call you Sakura, when she is another person all together. Don't you think so?"
Sakura nodded, not knowing in what direction was this conversation turning into.
"So, how about renaming you then. Ying Fa? What do you think of that?"
"Ying Fa." She said the name, testing it to see whether it suits her. " Sounds less feminine than Sakura. Not bad."
"So, we lost Sakura, but we gotten Ying Fa. It's not that bad." Fujitaka gave a heartbreaking smile. "We gotten Ying Fa Touya. Don't cry."
"Who says I am crying?" Touya sniffed. Losing his sister seemed to be the end of the world. He lost Sakura and no one can replace it. But then, he could just try to love Ying Fa like how he does for Sakura. "Hey Kaiiju!"
"Quit calling me kaiiju you moron!" Ying Fa snapped back.
"Right, and life goes on." Touya paused. "Kaiiju!"
--- End Flashback---
"So they are accepting it?" Tomoyo asked.
"Yes, they are. But frankly, for a mean bitch like me, I am for once very sympathetic for them. They are great people. Why didn't Sakura tell them?"
"She doesn't even accept herself after Naruko. All she wanted was to escape reality and never see anyone." Tomoyo sighed. "Sakura?"
"Yeah?"
"You rather me call you Ying Fa or Sakura?"
"Sakura. I will be only known as Ying Fa to the Kinomoto."
"Alright." Tomoyo was upset that she wasn't considered as part of her family, but didn't share her feelings. "Can I ask you something else?"
"Yeah what? Tomoyo you are just beating around the bush. Out with it!"
"Well, I, I just don't know how to phrase it."
"Spit it out. If not I will just ignore you!" Sakura said meanly.
"Will, will I, I lose..."
"Come on! Stop stuttering!"
"WILL I LOSE A FRIEND?"
Sakura just looked at her puzzled, not understanding the question.
"Sakura is gone, for good. So, now that you are here." Tomoyo trailed off, letting silence taking over.
The silence for unbearable, however, both parties did not know what to say.
"No."
"Nani? No?" Tomoyo asked.
"You won't lose a friend. You are not going to pay the price of Sakura's foolishness." She held out her hand to stop Tomoyo from starting to defend Sakura's decision. "What she did was cowardly, something that I don't approve. However, since it's her decision, I have no choice to respect it. Although I can never be as chirpy as her, I will still be your friend. Don't fret on that, and isn't that what I was doing for the past couple of years when she was away temporary?"
Tomoyo smiled and gave Sakura a bear hug. "Quit it Tomoyo. Don't over do it!"
"Alright." Tomoyo gave her a millon dollar smile. "Well, Ying Fa, Li is here. Let's go!"
She let out a string of curses and stared at Syaoran as he approached. He looked good in the brown polo tee and cargo pants. It outlined his finely built body and boy does he have well toned muscles. As her eyes studied him, the man who broke Sakura's heart, his amber eyes did his fair share, evaluating her. His eyebrow twitched, as if questioning her. When she made eye contact, she stared at him, challenging him to voice out his feelings. When he did, his words were harshed. "WHAT THE HELL DID YOU DO?"
