"We could do it the easy way, which is by day, but the bad thing is Yang-Chan would kill any innocent bystander and you can't use your magic that freely. So, you're going to have to do it by night, the hard way. Nobody is out then, but that too has a bad side. The other vampires, the ones who are loyal to her, will most likely try and stop you." Xing said as he was trying to think of a way for them to rescue Meiling.
"We'll do what ever it takes." Syaoran said determined.
"That's right. Meiling is our friend, and we all know she'd do the same for us." Sakura said, standing by Syaoran's side. She had already forgotten that Xing was a vampire, but was more determined than ever to rescue their friend.
"But…if she's a vampire already, how will you reverse it? It's not like we want to kill her by putting a stake through her heart or anything…" Tomoyo said. "We just want her back to her old self." Everyone turned their head to Xing, who was clearly thinking.
"I'm not to sure…I think…you'll have to kill Yang-Chan…" he said slowly.
"By putting a stake through her heart?" Sakura asked.
"No, that's just movie stuff." Xing answered. "No, something about a sword…Some special sword is the only thing that can kill vampires…"
"Maybe if you tell us a little about how Yang-Chan became a vampire, then we can try to see if we can figure out about the sword from there." Eriol said. Xing nodded, and started to speak.

Meiling looked his way. A look of sympathy went across her face for a split second, and then it went back to her expressionless face.
"Dry your tears Tomo. After all, she's still Meiling, only without a few memories…" Yang-Chan said. A small sinister smirk went across her face.
Tomo looked up at her. Anger was running through his veins. "HOW COULD YOU?!"
"It's my life. I make my own choices. If I decide to wipe someone's memories, then I'll do it. That's how."
"But…why her memories? Why take both of their memories away?"
"Why you ask? They are the perfect weapon. If I had let them keep their memories, then they wouldn't be a perfect weapon to put out for the Li clan. Would they? Just look at what your memories are doing to you! You still can't get over Shinta even now, when you love Meiling!"
A small look of surprise swept over Meiling's face, but it disappeared just as fast as her last expression. At the same time, a small pained look came over Shinta. Yang-Chan noticed it.
"It seems both of these girls haven't lost their feelings for you even though they can't remember you. Interesting…"

"I don't know much about it, but somehow, somewhere, Yang-Chan crossed paths with Clow Reed in Korea."
"You mean Chansa Kwan?!" Kero shouted from his drawer.
"I'm not sure if that was Yang-Chan's original name though…All I know is Yang-Chan wasn't her original name." Xing said.
"I've been starting to remember vaguely about my-or Clow Reed's trip to Korea." Eriol said. Everyone put their attention to him.
"And how long have you been getting your trip to Korea back?" Syaoran asked.
"It started coming back last week actually."
"What?" Xing said. What is- But Xing stopped himself from thinking. He didn't want Yang-Chan to know what he was doing, but he feared it was too late.
"I'm the reincarnation of Clow Reed himself." Eriol explained. "Or actually, half of his reincarnation. The other half is Sakura's dad."
"Now don't strain yourself…" Tomoyo said worriedly to Eriol.
"Don't worry I won't." he said reassuringly. "Now as for Chansa Kwan, I remember everything about her."
"That's good. I sure don't. Clow Reed never liked to talk about the women he met." Kero said.

What is- came across Yang-Chan's mind. Xing, what ever are you doing at her house with a Li? She had learned to pin point anybody with their thoughts at any given moment when she was a young sorceress. It had been useful when they couldn't find somebody, but then she went to the dark side, and it had helped her pin point all of her victims. "Excuse me Tomo. I need to go take care of a certain traitor…" she said. "Shinta, Meiling, make sure Tomo does not leave this tower." The both nodded in response and Yang-Chan made her way down the tower. Where is that vamp-demon when you need her?! Yang-Chan thought furiously. "ICE?! GET OVER HERE NOW!" Ice appeared from behind her. She rubbed her eyes and put her full attention on her.
"What is it Mistress?" Ice asked a bit coldly. She had witnessed Shinta come in, and saw Tomo's reaction. She hated to see him hurt, and Yang-Chan was the cause of all of it.
"Go to the Kinomoto residence. Xing is there. I want you to kill him." Yang-Chan said, ignoring the coldness in her voice and handed Ice a small dagger. The handle was ebony and smooth. There was a small trace of red in it as well, and a small web-like design came down from the tip of the handle, to the end. "I know he's your friend, but you must listen. He's planning to hurt Tomo. You don't want anything bad to happen to him? Do you?"
"Of course not. I will do all I can to protect him." Ice answered. She received the dagger a bit hesitantly. She knew Yang-Chan was up to something, but she couldn't think it. Xing had taught her how to clear her mind so Yang-Chan wouldn't know what she was thinking. Ice bowed respectively to Yang-Chan and left. Yang-Chan made her way back up the tower.

"She was very beautiful. Stunning blue eyes that contrasted quite sharply with her dark blue hair." Eriol said.
"Yup, that's Yang-Chan." Xing said.
Well, it just so happened that she saw me in the street. She said that I-or he must be Clow Reed because he was so handsome and that she could sense a strong magical aura around him. He of course said yes. Although hesitant about how their relationship was going to be, ever since Soo Young, they did meet quite often. He helped her control her mind powers better and even made them better. She eventually fell into the side of darkness, and no longer the sweet angel he once knew and grew to love. He left Korea, and headed back to China where he found a new love. Chansa-or now known as Yang, tried to kill her. To make sure she wouldn't hurt anybody else, he turned her into a day-walker, just as Kero said earlier. But, just as a precaution, he made a sword that would only kill her if needed. That sword could be used to summon elements and such. In other words, Syaoran's sword." Eriol finally said, looking at Syaoran. "You have to kill her. Clow Reed didn't know that she could turn others into vampires or become a day-walker. He certainly didn't think she would be immortal by taking blood." Everyone's full attention went to Syaoran. "It's the only way to save her."
Suddenly, a cold draft came into the room. Ice flew into the open window. Xing saw the dagger in her hands, and his eyes opened in shock. She then walked right up to him and dropped the dagger to the floor, which landed on it's point, only inches from where Sakura's hand was resting. Sakura stared at it in shock and moved a lot more closer to Syaoran. He held her close, realizing that this girl was the one who made Meiling's room so cold just a few nights ago.
"I want an explanation Xing." Ice said demandingly.
"An explanation of what?"
"Why are you here? Are you really planning to kill Tomo, because if you are, then you give me no choice but to kill you!" she said. Tears started to form in her eyes. "You're a dear friend, I don't want to hurt you, unless I absolutely have to!"
"Kill Tomo?! Who told you that?" he asked bewildered. He would never want to hurt Tomo. Tomo was like his little brother.
"Yang-Chan."
A/N: So how do you like it so far? Oh and since most of the readers out there probably don't know any Korean what so ever, chansa means angel. Yeah, I decided to put some irony in there.
