Chapter 13:
I don't know if I love you, I just might be confused!
Syaoran was walking to Sakura's house feeling that same great emptiness still, Syaoran had been doing a lot of thinking lately and most of it was about Sakura. He had to confess, Eriol was right about everything. It's just he never liked a girl before (seriously at least), he was supposed to get married to this girl, but he told everyone the day of the wedding that he would kill himself if he were to be married by this girl. Syaoran wasn't around to many people, he like the feeling of being along sometimes.
Syaoran finally got to Sakura house. Syaoran could feel Sakura's warm pink aura that made chills go up his back. Syaoran walked up the stairs slowly and the knocked on the door. Sakura opened the door and smiled. "Great your on time, I made some tea and muffins, come on in." Sakura said. Syaoran blushed and at he stepped in his stomach felt funny. Syaoran took off his shoe and closed the door. "Oh, go right up the stair and take a right and I'll meet you in my room," Sakura shouted thought the kitchen.
Syaoran walked up the stairs feeling the cards power that couldn't be hidden by any magic. Syaoran stepped into Sakura's room it wasn't to girlie thank God for that. Syaoran walk over to the window and looked up at the stars. Sakura came up the stairs with a tray of mini muffin and tea. "Sit where ever you want," She said putting the food on the floor on a mat. Syaoran sat on the floor where the food was and took out his books. Syaoran looked at Sakura for a second and then looked down. "Okay, lets start with the basics first," Syaoran said giving Sakura a book to help her. Sakura smiled. "Thanks for helping me," Sakura said smiling. Sakura and Syaoran worked until eleven Syaoran lied on the floor looking up at the ceiling thinking about how wonderful it would be to be with the stars. Meanwhile Sakura took down the dishes. Sakura came back up three minutes later. Syaoran didn't hear her coming. "Syaoran?"
Syaoran sat up and turned to Sakura. "What?" He said. "Why were you fighting Eriol? I thought you got along," Sakura said walking over to Syaoran. Eriol and Syaoran fought each other in the school gym. Eriol called Syaoran aweak for not letting go of his emotions of the death of his family or something so Syaoran wanted to prove himself to him and beat him anyway.
"It was a matter of pride, just to see who's the strongest was," Syaoran said dully. Sakura looked at Syaoran not believing what he said. Syaoran stood up with a serious look on his face. "He called be weak and I proved myself," Syaoran said. Sakura smiled and looked into Syaoran eyes. Syaoran looked back and Sakura stepped a little closer Syaoran. Syaoran heart was racing at the speed of light, it felt like it wouldn't stop.
Syaoran couldn't think he was so confused did he really like Sakura more then someone. Sakura took Syaoran hands and lit her hands with her pink aura. Syaoran felt her power moving throw his body. Syaoran's lit his hands with his green and black aura. Sakura felt the darkness of his magic but felt the warmth that lead afterwards. Syaoran blushed lightly and looked at Sakura. Sakura and Syaoran faces began inching together. Syaoran felt the emptiness fill suddenly. Syaoran and Sakura kissed each other and broke for a brief second and they there lips met once again. Syaoran pulled Sakura closer feeling her heart beat against his chest, Sakura could feel his heart beating fast and slow.
Syaoran wanted to stay with Sakura a long as time was still flowing and moving threw the Earth be that couldn't happen. Syaoran lost all since to what was around him. Syaoran deepened the kiss with his embrace to Sakura. Sakura broke the kiss breathlessly. Syaoran looked into Sakura eyes feeling the still warm kissed they shared. Sakura smiled a little making Syaoran blushed at what he was doing. "Sakura, I feel numb just to let you know," Syaoran whispered. "Me too," Sakura said. Syaoran smiled a secret smile without Sakura looking. He felt everything melt away. "I have to go," Syaoran said. Sakura eyes sadden. "You''ll come back?" She asked. Syaoran sighed. "I don't know, you'll see when you see me," He said disappearing. Sakura smiled. "I love you Syaoran." She whispered to herself feeling his aura leave slowly touching her heart.
Syaoran appeared in his bedroom where Ki was sleeping at the end of his bed. Syaoran took off his shirt dropped it on the floor. Ki opened his eyes a little and sighed and went back to sleep. Syaoran looked at the ceiling still feeling the warm kiss. 'Sakura' Syaoran thought still looking up. Syaoran suddenly saw a a loss panel in the ceiling that he hadn't noticed. Syaoran stood on his bed and jumped to hit the ceiling panel down. Ki woke up with a fat tall at the square panel hit the bed. Syaoran kept jumping and then the panel fell on the floor. Syaoran looked up and saw nothing but darkness. Syaoran left the room and went ran to the basement to get a ladder.
Ki ran down stairs and went under the couch. Syaoran took the ladder up the stairs and pushed his bed out of the way. Syaoran set up the ladder and walked up it. He took a flash light and looked around. Syaoran saw a three small boxes and they had different names on it. Syaoran walked up the ladder a little more. Half of body was in the ceiling. Syaoran reached for the boxes and looked at the names. Syaoran blew off the thick dust that covered the names.
"Meling, Eriol, Syaoran," He said. They where puzzle boxes with mixed up pictures on them. Syaoran saw a glowing shine on the box. Syaoran touch in and then he blacked out. Syaoran fell down the ladder not breathing and his eyes were wide open with no color and no sigh of move
"No, not this again," Syaoran thought. The past was rewinding and Syaoran was standing still not getting any younger or older. And then it suddenly stopped. Syaoran watched the sense play out. "Honey, I can't find a place to put them," Syaoran's mother said. Syaoran Father came in and took the boxes. "Okay, let see," He said looking around. Syaoran looked at the boxes that were just like the ones he had found. "Are son well find these soon." He said putting them in the ceiling where Syaoran found it.
"Mother, look at what I found," Little Syaoran said smiling holding a butterfly. Syaoran's Mother smiled. "You caught one, good my son. Now take it to the lake and let it free and it well grant you a wish," She said. "Really," Syaoran said looking at his Father and he nodded. Syaoran smiled and ran off.
Syaoran blinked, not breathing to good. Then the door bell rang. Syaoran took the boxes and put them on his dresser. Syaoran coughed catching his breath, he walked out his room and went to the door. Syaoran opened the door and saw Sakura smiling.
"Here, I forgot to give you this. It's an airline report on all the places Jihochi's father would be and his next stop is Hong Kong, and also he dropped off a huge package of weapons and swords for about 1.3 million dollar in drug money," Sakura said. Syaoran looked at the chart and the time he was leaving for Hong Kong. "Now, the deal is done," Sakura said.
Syaoran had an evil look on his face looking at the paper. "Thanks," Syaoran said. Sakura smiled and walked down the stairs. "Just remember Syaoran. Don't kill them there are other ways you know," Sakura told Syaoran while walking down the stairs.
Syaoran watched Sakura go down the street walking slowly. Syaoran smiled a little not knowing that his next move was going as planned. Syaoran shut the door and walked over to the phone. Syaoran dialed the number nearest to the phone.
"J.A.N airport, this is Fay speaking how can I help you?" Said a female voice that was on the other line. "Yes, I would like to schedule a flight 2 ticket in five weeks, class A jet transportation." He said. "Okay, name please." Fay answered back. "Syaoran Li," He said. Syaoran heard typing for about a minute. "Okay, your tickets well be mailed to you in about three days or less, cash or credit?"
"Cash."
"Okay, thank you for boarding Japans airline nation, have a nice evening." She said hanging up. Syaoran walked up stair to his room and put everything back in place with his magic and fell a sleep not thinking or feeling anything.
The next morning Sakura was so happy. Syaoran kissed her last night she got a A on her math and English paper. "Good morning," Sakura said smiling to Tomoyo. Tomoyo looked sad. "What's' wrong?" She asked. "Syaoran dropped out, and Eriol too." She answered her friend. "Why?" Sakura said feeling her knees get weak at the thought.
"Eriol called me on my cell and told me that he might not see me for a while and then he said something about Syaoran killing someone something like that," She said. Sakura eyes widened. "His really goin' go threw with this," Sakura said. Tomoyo sniffed holding back tears. "But spring hasn't even started yet," Sakura said. "Let's go to Syaoran's house after school since we don't have any homework today," Tomoyo said. Sakura nodded. Syaoran was moving the box from the basement to the first floor. Syaoran and Eriol were swearing and panting out of breath. "Syaoran what the hell did you put in there damn boxes," Eriol grunted as they were walking up the stairs with the last box. "This on has sword it," Syaoran grunted putting it down on the floor. Syaoran and Eriol fell to the floor trying to cool off after nine hours of packing and lifting stuff.
"Wanna order something, I starving. Pizza or Chinese?" Eriol asked taking out his cell. "Chinese. How did Tomoyo take it, you know you being gone and all?" He asked. "She was crying and shouting, you know women," Eriol said. Syaoran looked at Eriol. "No, I don't." He said with a little laugh. "You still love her?" Syaoran asked feeling a cold breeze on the floor. "
"Yeah, what's not to love about her, she smart, beautiful, when she sings it like hearing a feeling a cool sea breeze in the hot summer, she just perfect." He said.
Syaoran scoffed and laughed a little. "What so funny, you can't say the same thing about Sakura," Eriol said. Syaoran had annoyed look on his face. Syaoran stood up and sighed. "Look I don't like Sakura, so what I kissed It's a teenage hormonal thing, I don't like her and if there's anything that'd playing in your little mind don't even think about, perv boy." Syaoran said. The door bell rang Syaoran walked over to the door and opened it. Sakura and Tomoyo ran over Syaoran, taking off there shoes.
"Damn, Syaoran why are you doing this?" Sakura said looking around at the boxes. Eriol stood up and looked at Tomoyo. "Eriol, there you are," Tomoyo said walking over to him. "None of your business, leave me along this is my family affair," Syaoran yelled. Sakura didn't say anything. "Syaoran killing doesn't solve anything," Sakura yelled back. Tomoyo and Eriol were just listening in on the yelling fest.
"Yes, it does, that way they don't have to repeat history." Syaoran said. "Sakura why don't you mind your business, unlike you-you have a father, but not me because of jealously, I'll kill who I please, when I want and how I want" Syaoran said walking up the stairs. Sakura followed after Syaoran.
"Syaoran you need to fight these feelings and move on," She said. Syaoran slammed his door making a picture fall on the floor. "Syaoran open the door," Sakura said. Syaoran was already gone he jumped out the window. "Sakura I think he's outside," Tomoyo said.
Sakura ran down the stairs and grabbed her shoes and ran out the house. Sakura looked up and down the street and saw Syaoran going down to the street. Sakura ran after Syaoran. "Syaoran stop!" She called. Syaoran ignored her and kept going. Sakura finally caught up to him. "Syaoran stop." Sakura said breathlessly. "Leave me the hell along," Syaoran said.
Syaoran looked into Sakura's eyes seeing how worried she was. "Sakura let me do what I have to," He said. "No, they'll kill you and if not you go to jail or even worse," Sakura said. "Syaoran please, don't do the crime that you can't pay for,"
Syaoran walked past Sakura. "Stop please,"
Syaoran pushed Sakura out the way and flew to the shrine. Syaoran walked to the Shine and went inside where the great fire was for thinking and praying. Syaoran took off his shoes and clapped his hands three times and bowed in front of the fire.
Syaoran stayed there for hours until the owner came in. "You have been here for many hours." He said. Syaoran opened his eyes and looked into the fire seeing his enemies. "So," Syaoran said getting up. "Syaoran, right?" The owner said. Syaoran stopped in his tracks. "You knows she right, Don't do the crime if you can't pay for."
"I can pay for it," Syaoran replied coldly.
"With what?"
"My life." Syaoran said putting on his shoes and walking out into the cold and dark night. Syaoran walked home not feeling anything. Syaoran didn't care if he died just as long as the people paid for the crime they did. "Sir Li, come and see what well happen if you kill yourself," Said a strange voice.
Syaoran went over where he heard the voice. "Take this potion and you will see the past and what happened. Everything that happened." She said. Syaoran took the potion. "Drink this when you are ready, your soul will be removed from your body and you'll see everything you need to know,"
"But when your soul returns, you will forget things for a while, it'll all be for a good cause,"
Syaoran took walked away hearing her last words.
Syaoran didn't think much after Sakura. He was thinking of drinking that potion. Thoughts fill his mind like a river. Syaoran had gotten all his stuff out the house and was getting ready to leave. Syaoran hadn't seen Meling for months, knowing the way she acted she's might be in jail of something. Eriol and Syaoran were in a cab going to the airport.
"Syaoran why are we going this early in the morning," Eriol said rubbing his sleepy eyes. "We just might get to Hong Kong before night time," Syaoran said looking at his computerized organizer Syaoran hadn't slept so he just went home and finished everything with the packing and sending. "Syaoran you must be a zombie," Eriol said drinking his starbucks coffee. "Just chill for a while, we almost at the port." Syaoran said turning on his cell phone. "I'm going to try to get Meling again."
Syaoran dialed Meling cell number and it rang and rang. "Hello?" She said finally picking up the phone. "Damn, it's about time you picked up," Syaoran said. "What's up?" She asked. "Were heading to Hong Kong, can you meet us there, I have something for you." Syaoran said. "Cool I hope it's something pretty, I think I'll be there, at your house right, I know where it is don't worry about that, I might be there in about three weeks, k? Meling said. "Good, I'll see you then." Syaoran said hanging up. "So?" Eriol asked. "She'll meet us in Hong Kong in three weeks, or so she says" He answered.
"Great"
"What so great about it?" Syaoran said. Eriol grinned liking when Syaoran get mad for no reason. "Your funny, Syaoran" Eriol said. Syaoran rolled his eyes.
