Chapter 9
"You're from a different planet too, Tomoyo?!"
"Yes, I thought you would have figured that out. Everyone that has magic or knows about the Clow cards came from a different world." She said.
"So which world did you come from?"
"Yours silly. There is only another world that we can come from. That world is yours." Tomoyo said smiling.
"So, Li..... He came from my world too?" Sakura asked. Tomoyo nodded. "Then why did he run off? Doesn't he know that I come from the same planet as him?"
"Unfortunately no. He was one of the people that forgot that other people come from another world. Everyone that came over here took the risk of loosing memory of who and what came over here with him or her. He was one of those unlucky people."
"Oh... Well we should go tell him that then." She said excitedly.
"Sure that's fine, but if he doesn't listen there is nothing we can do."
"What do you mean?"
Tomoyo looked up at the older Li with a sad look on her face. The older Li continued what Tomoyo was going to say.
"If he does not want to listen, he will be in more danger if you try to make him listen. If he learns forcefully, he will loose his memory of you."
"What? Why?!" Sakura asked panically.
"That's just how it is Sakura." Tomoyo said.
"Well, He'll listen to me right? I am his girlfriend!" Sakura stood up with her fists clenched tight.
"I hope so."
"But I have one more question." Sakura said putting a finger to her head.
"What is that question?" The older Li said.
"If you're Li and Li's Li then that means your him and he's you right? Which means that if he were to go to the other planet he would be you and you would be him or he would be him and you would be you or-" Li put a finger to her mouth to shush her.
"Let me explain it simply. On other planet, I am Li from the future. So I am he and he is I, but we can't stay in one place with each other for too long or else one of us will disappear. We won't die or anything. We'll only be sucked into the Li that's supposed to be there at that time. Which means if Li hadn't left at the time he did earlier, I would have been sucked into his body and been another part of him. Do you get it?" He asked. (Sorry if I sorta made that hard to understand.)
"Yeah I think I do." She said once he pulled his finger from her lips.
Tomoyo stood in the doorway. I'm going to leave now. Bring your stuff over later." Tomoyo waved and walked out the door and then out the house. Sakura pulled out her staff and cards.
"Are you going to create another you?"
"Yeah, how did you know?" Sakura looked at him.
"I just know you Sakura." He said with a smile.
She returned the smile and then chanted. "By the power of the stars, staff of power made by Clow, reveal to me your true form now! Release!" The staff, again, appeared in her hands. "Mirror card hear my plea, quick create another me!" Sakura yelled. Mirror took the form of its master and looked at its clothes. "Hey mirror. I need you to be me for a little while and then I'll be back okay?" The mirror card nodded. Sakura grabbed Li and then they jumped out the window.
Sakura arrived at Li's house. She didn't want to alarm him by making any noises so she couldn't go through the front door. She had to go straight to Li's room. She used the Fly card and wings appeared on her back. She flew up to his window and saw no one was in there. She quietly opened the window and crawled in getting rid of the staff and the fly card. She closed the window and sat on his bed waiting for him to come into his room. The doorknob turned and Sakura looked at it. The door opened and the person she thought would come in wasn't standing in the doorway.
