Chapter 16

from chapter 15

The girls all wore the same as did the guys. The girls' clothes wore the color of their aura. They wore long slim dresses with slits up to the waist with capris underneath. The splits were automaticly buttoned. They had matching slippers to go with the outfit. The guys' matched their aura as well. They wore high necked long sleeve silk shirts.The clips at the neck were a darker shade of their aura. They wore silk slacks that worked for causual or fighting. Their slippers were the same as the clips. "Wow," said Kimari. "It's beautiful," said Haruna. "Yea I've never seen anything like it," said Jakita. Tomoyo beamed. "If you knew Tomoyo as long as I have you'd be used to it," said Sakura swinging her arm around Kimari's shoulder. "Yea and still everytime she makes something new it is like it was her first masterpiece," said Melin twriling in the dress. "They can admire themselves for the rest of the night," wispered Syaoran to the guys who just nodded. The girls turned to them with hard glares right before they shot out their hands and used their teleconisis to throw the guys gentlely but forcfully into the wall. "We get the idea," said Ryu as he and Syaoran shot Kimari and Sakura exactly the same glare. Sakura and Kimari blinked and let them go. The other girls had seen it too what pasted between the two couples that they didn't see at first. "Oh my goodness," said Tomoyo. "You four are almost exactly the same," said Jakita. "Like looking into personality mirriors," said Melin. "They're right," said Eriol looking at the four. "Why do I have the feeling that means something?" asked Koji. "I was thinking the same thing," said Ling. "Well spit it out," yelled Ryu and Syaoran both frustrated at being left in the dark. Kimari and Sakura moved to calm them. When Haruna saw it. "Twins," she said. Everyone looked at her confused.

on with chapter 16

"WHAT?" yelled Syaoran, Ryu, Kimari, and Sakura. "None of us noticed when we change back how alike you and Sakura look and now that I look back on it act too," said Jakita. "Same thing with you two," said Ling. All four looked at each other. "Oh my goodness there are only slight differences," said Kimari looking at Sakura. "Yea her hair is shorter then mine and her eyes have blue in them, but other then that we are the same height, size, statrure," said Sakura. Kimari smiled. "I never had a twin before," she said. "Unless you count Mirror," neither have I," said Sakura. "You two have more differences we only have one," said Syaoran looking at Ryu. "Just to think I had thought about letting my hair grow out," said Ryu. Sakura stepped infront of him as Kimari stepped infront of Syaoran. They both looked hard when the realized something at the same time. "No," said Kimari. "Ryu's eyes are darker then Syaoran's," said Sakura. "Your eyes don't match your hair like Ryu's does," said Kimari. "Well, that's nice," said Syaoran taking a seat. "I like that idea," said Ryu as he also sat down. "Does anyone else think we should contact Clow?" asked Eriol. Everyone raised their hands.

Tomoyo quickly wrote the news into the book and they waited for the answer. It didn't take very long. Soon Clow's reply scrolled itself onto the page.

Hello again everyone it is nice to know you are fine. Thank you for rescuing the others. The reason I chose them was because the likness between all of you. Syaoran, Sakura, Ryu, and Kimari all have looks the rest of you have other things in common with your twin from the other world. Melin and Jakita are best tactical planners ever to be found. Tomoyo and Haruna are the best dagger wielders. Koji and Eriol both have that mysterious all knowing knowledge. Ling and Simon have archery skills that rival Yue's. The skills you had were great now that are nearly unstoppable but Master Long will still try. You have two crystals you must find the other two. They will not come too easy they are the ones my father and I both created. They can be used for evil in the worse ways, but to get the next you must master the ones you have now. But you will have to practice on the road. Touya, Nakaru,and Yukito are having problems keeping the spirt realm safe. They believe that Long is despreatly trying to fine followers offering them life again after they give him your lives and the crystals. It is also reported that they believe he may kidnapped some spirits against their will. This has not been proven. Hurry my chosen ones time waits for none without conciquences.

The page then went blank. "Well that's very interesting," said Ling looking at Simon. "Yes very I didn't notice our liknesses," Simon said. "Of course not we were taken with them," said Koji. "Right we skipped what wasn't seen at first for the most noticable," said Eriol. "Now we all have twins," said Tomoyo. "Yea this is gonna be fun," said Haruna with a sparkle in her eyes. Sakura and Kimari noticed it and groaned. "Two of you is just too much," they said. Tomoyo and Haruna just smiled. "Oh well lets get moving," said Kero. As he picked up Sakura's pack. "I could have gotten that Kero," she said to him while the rest of the group were getting ready. Yue also stepped up to her with Syaoran next to him. Kero frowned. "You used more power then Melin and Tomoyo so they wouldn't have to be hurt so bad that nap refueled them completly," said Kero. "You can hide it from them but not by those who are bound to you," said Yue. "We didn't let the others know because we don't want them feeling any burdens. If they don't have to neither should you Sakura," said Syaoran as he handed Yue his pack. Sakura looked down. "I didn't know how strong the evil was and didn't want Tomoyo and Melin to drain themselves to the point of fatality luckily it wasn't very strong and I used too much power," she said I'm sorry I worried you," she said. Syaoran sighed. Kero and Yue got the hint and walked away. "Sakura when I felt your power take such a dive I thought something was wrong luckily you had that back up supply which was activated when you slept so your power looked normal enough. I love you Sakura so does everyone else if you were serously hurt none of us would make it," he told her. Sakura looked up with tears in her eyes. "Thank you my Little Wolf. I love you too," she said as she leaned up and kissed him. Syaoran smiled. "We are going to say you hurt your ankle and I am going to carry you to the next town," he said. "So I can get some sleep?" she asked. Syaoran nodded. "But that could take so long and I am way too heavy," she said. "No your not as a matter of fact you are extreamly to light plus we are flying," he explained. Sakura glared. "I don't know should I take it as a complement or a insult," she said. "It was a complement," he said. Sakura smiled and yawned. "Fine we'll do it your way this time," she said as she let him pick her up and follow the others out the room. Eriol saw them first. "If you thought I didn't notice your wrong but I'll keep it a secret too," he said. "After all what kind of father would I be if I didn't notice the drastic decrese of power in my half daughter," he said loud enough so only Syaoran and Sakura could hear then said louder. "What's wrong Sakura?" he asked. "I think I hurt my ankle," she said. "I'm gonna carry her on the flight to the next town to save energy," said Syaoran. Everyone nodded. They made there way into the forest in back of the hotel far away from prying eyes. "Ok lets get this show in the sky," said Ruby sprouting her butterfly wings still in her human form as did the guardians. Next Ryu, Kimari, Koji, Haruna, Simon and Jakita sprouted fairy wings. Then Syaoran, Eriol,Tomoyo, Melin and Ling released their wands.

O power of my star

"Why did you guys release your wands?" asked Jakita. "Yea can't you release your wings with out your wands?" asked Simon. Eriol was about to speak but Koji beat him to it. "They can but it saves more energy to go by wand then just comand as a matter of fact it takes more energy for us then them because of this," he said. Eriol nodded. "Well lets go," said Syaoran looking down at Sakura who was already on her way to sleep. They soon all took off. The group flew for the rest of the day before stopping for dinner and sleep in a small road side inn.

"Can we please have six rooms please?" asked Melin. The inn keeper nodded and handed her the keys. "Anything else?" he asked. "Yes how far is the next town and when is dinner," she asked. "Well the next town is a very small on about a days walk. If you are looking for the next biggest town you need to take a ship across the Mira Ocean. Dinner starts in five minutes and it can be deliervered to your room if you wish," he said. Melin smiled. "Thanks we'll let you know," she said. "I'm tired," said Tomoyo. "Yea I say we all take dinner in our rooms and set back out tommrow," said Eriol. Everyone nodded. Everyone filed up the stairs. The guardians split themselves among all of them. Kero and Yue went to see Ryu and Kimari to see how much alike they were to their masters. Ruby and Rose went with Tomoyo and Eriol to see some new outfits. Suppi and Phonix stayed with Koji and Haruna. Syaoran quickly took the still sleeping Sakura to their room before anyone could ask and questions as to why Sakura was so tired. He knew Sakura hated lying to everyone and he couldn't blame her. Once he had her in bed he went back down to order dinner.

Sakura soon after woke up. She streched and yawned before comming out of bed and moving to the window. She stared out at the moon before closing her eyes in concentration. She first found out where each of her friends were before contacting Kero and Yue. Sorry I worried you guys I'm fine now thanks, she sent to them. We are glad to hear that, they sent back. After closing the link Sakura continued to stare out of the window she didn't hear Syaoran come back into the room. "It's good to feel you back to normal," he said coming behind her and wrapping his arms around her waist. She relaxed and leaned her hed on his chest. "It is gonna be very hard this rescuing the crystal and releasing the god and goddess," she said. "I know what your talking about. All this pressure and weight barring down on the eighteen of us. The fate of the universe in our power. I used to be scared about being the leader of the Li Clan one day. I used to work hard to make sure everyone was happy and they convinced me that being powerful was happy. They were wrong. Being in love is being happy. We were chosen to make sure everyone has a chance at happiness. I know for sure I want to be happy when this is all done," he said. Sakura turned still in his arms. "Me too and that is worth fighting for," she said as she kissed him. The happy moment was broken by a knock at the door. Dinner had arrived. "Wow look at all of this," said Sakura her eyes shining. "I thought you would be hungry after sleeping all day," said Syaoran as he picked up the first course. "You thought right," said Sakura as she too began to eat.

Eriol soon stopped by to check on Sakura. "I'm fine really," she said when he walked in. He smiled at this. "I know but there are others you need to convince," he said. Sakura understood and stood and hugged Eriol who hugged back immedatly they were tranported into the void. There was Fujitaka, Clow, Touya, and Yukito. "Now Sakura you can't have everyone worried like that," said Fujitaka after hugging his daughter. "I could feel it in our realm," said Touya. "Me too seeing how I am still partically part of Yue," said Yukito. "I'm better now and tommrow we are going after the next crystal which we thing may be in the next town," she updated everyone. "Well I have some news too. It's about that kidnapping I think Long took mother and Mr. Li," he said. Everyone looked at him. I have kept in contact with them thus far and as of two days ago haven't been able to find them anywhere," he said. Sakura and Eriol frowned. Then nodded. "They're calling us back," said Sakura. "We'll keep an eye out and keep in contact with any changes," said Eriol. Sakura hugged her father and brother once more before they were transported back to the inn.

When Sakura and Eriol returned he tried not to show how much he despised the fact that Eriol hugged Sakura. That's when he noticed how pale Sakura had become. "So what's going on," he asked. Sakura turned to him. "Touya thinks Long has kidnapped my mother and your father," she said. Syaoran also then turned pale. "We have to tell the others and finish eating before we head for the next town tonight," said Eriol leaving the room. Needless to say everyone only ate enough to refuel themselves before they paid and met in the wood. "Lets get moving," said Sakura.
