Revealing: To make known (that which has been concealed or kept secret); to unveil; to disclose; to show.

Syaoran gulped before entering the garden of remembrance where Tomoyo's grave stood. He had always been scared of this place ever since her memorial service, but it was the only way he could say goodbye to the one he'd tried to put to death. He approached the grave and laid two white roses on the tomb for the other two years of her life. He noted four names scratched in small letters on the grave. Eriol. Syaoran. Sakura. Kaho. Sakura's name was crossed out, and his name was halfway scratched out. It probably meant that she was uncertain if she got revenge upon him. Syaoran picked up a rock and finished scratching out his name. He was going to be depressed in Hong Kong. He'll be inconsolable, and no girl there would ever measure up to Sakura.

…Daidouji Manor…

Eriol had just woken up. He kept his eyes shut, but he remarked that Tomoyo wasn't in his arms anymore. He unenthusiastically opened his eyes and saw Tomoyo sitting cross-legged in a chair across from him, playing with a sharp dagger in her hands. She looked up at him and gave him an innocent smile, "Where does Kaho live?"

Eriol was taken back by the query. Tomoyo let out a giggle, "Don't worry, I won't kill her…" Tomoyo looked down at the blade "…yet. I'm too busy wondering what method of death I should use on her."

"Tomoyo, you don't really mean that do you?" Eriol got off the couch, walked over to her, and leaned in to kiss her on the cheek.

Tomoyo quickly moved the dagger towards his neck, "Oh, but I do Eriol."

She removed the blade and allowed him to kiss her. He wished that Tomoyo would just go back to normal. Back to the charming, thoughtful Tomoyo that she used to be. Tomoyo got out of the chair and began to hum, "So Eriol, are you going to answer me or not?"

He sighed and told her. 'She'll be back to normal once she gets her revenge… I hope.' "Let's go somewhere!" Tomoyo said out of the blue.

…Later that day…

Sakura strolled through the mall. Her eyes were slightly bloodshot from crying, and her cheeks were tinted pink. She saw Eriol happily chatting with a girl in a store. She could not see who the girl was, so she came up to them to get a better look at her. "Hi Eriol!" she said in lively voice.

"Hi Sakura," he noticed that she had cried, "What's wrong?"

Sakura gave an discontented laugh, "Nothing's wrong," Sakura then smiled at the girl standing beside Eriol, "Hey you're the girl from the cemetery!"

Eriol gave Tomoyo a suspicious look. She was wearing a coat, with a hood that concealed half of her face. Tomoyo smiled, "I take it that Syaoran has seen the pictures."

Eriol's jaw dropped. He really didn't want to get caught in this catfight, "Um… I'm going to uh, err… go do… something," Tomoyo waved goodbye, "Kay bye."

Sakura stared at Tomoyo, "H-how?" she began.

"It's nice to see you again Sakura," Tomoyo removed her hood.

Sakura stood there dumbstruck by the person standing before her. Fear began to build up within her. As soon as everything registered in her mind, she let out a high-pitched scream. Everyone in the mall brought his or her attention to Sakura. Once she stopped screaming she looked around her and went red. Tomoyo laughed at her ex-best friend. "Why did you give Syaoran the pictures?" she asked after recovering from blushing.

Tomoyo stopped laughing. "Oh yes the loveliest question out of all five Ws. Why," she pronounced with enthusiasm, "You know what? You can use that question for any situation. Why am I still alive? Why were you crying? Why did the best friend, brother-like figure, boyfriend, and teacher of Tomoyo Daidouji plot against her, or in other words send her to her death?"

Sakura looked down at the ground. "And to answer your question," Tomoyo began, "I did because I knew that he meant everything to you, and you deserve to have everything taken away from you. Be grateful that I have no intention to kill you all."

Sakura looked up at her. Her eyes had a hint of terror in them, and asked her a question. "Yes. I am going to kill someone," Tomoyo nodded.

"You're not going to kill Eriol are you?" Sakura demanded.

"The thought crossed my mind once or twice," Tomoyo shrugged then left.

Sakura was now convinced that Tomoyo was going to kill Eriol, and she had to warn him. She raced Tomoyo through the crowd, trying to get to Eriol first. Tomoyo got to his side and wrapped her arm around his then kissed him on the cheek. "Eriol! I need to tell you something," Sakura shouted.

"Yeah?" Eriol turned to face her.

"It's about To-"

"Eriol!" someone's voice called from behind him.

Tomoyo rolled her eyes, "I'm leaving."

As she left, Syaoran came. "Hey, I just found something out," Syaoran took a glimpse at Sakura.

"Hi," Sakura greeted.

Syaoran ignored her and looked away, "Tomoyo's going after Kaho. Did she get you yet?"

"No she forgave me… I think," Eriol stated.

"Well if she did, then she's going after Kaho next. We have to warn her."

"I guess so."

"Tomoyo said that she was going to kill one of us," Sakura murmured.

Syaoran turned to her, "How do we know if you're lying or not?" he sneered.

"I'm serious this time!" she shrieked.

Eriol pondered for a second, "She tried to kill me already, but she couldn't."

"She already got her revenge on me," Sakura sighed.

They both looked at Syaoran, "On her grave are our names, including Kaho's. Sakura's name was crossed out, but mine was only crossed out halfway."

"So it can't be me," Sakura concluded.

"I wish it was though," Syaoran muttered.

Sakura frowned at him; her glare stabbing him in the heart. "You guys now isn't the time!" Eriol gave a heavy sigh.

"Doesn't matter," Syaoran replied nonchalantly, "I'm leaving anyways. I'm leaving for Hong Kong in two days."

"Oh that's too bad Li," Eriol faked a sad face.

"Very funny Hiiragizawa," Syaoran gave on final glare and headed off.

…Kaho's Home…

Tomoyo stood outside of the rather large house. For an elementary teacher, Kaho was doing pretty good. The house wasn't as large as Eriol or Tomoyo's mansions, but it was still big. She went up to the door and tried opening the door. She turned the knob and the door silently opened. Tomoyo waltzed into the house. "Oh Kaho?" she called with a melodious voice, "Where are you?"

"Sakura is that you?" Tomoyo heard Kaho's footsteps coming down the stairs and in her direction.

…On the way to Kaho's…

Sakura and Eriol were walking down the road, "I hate it," Sakura pouted.

Eriol nodded his head. Sakura was telling him about what happened with the pictures. Now they were on the way to Kaho's to warn her about Tomoyo's wrath. "Remember during Chiharu's birthday party?" Sakura brightened up.

"Yeah, why?" Eriol asked.

"You and Tomoyo locked me and Syaoran inside Chiharu's closet and then you guys left," Sakura slightly blushed.

"Sakura don't try remembering the time you spent with him, it will only hurt you more."

"Where did you guys go anyways? Syaoran and I had to wait until Chiharu found us."

"Oh, we went back to my house," Eriol laughed.

He remembered that day. That was actually the first time he had slept with Tomoyo. Then it hit him… "You're going to suffer for the thing that you did kill."

"And what would that be?"

"Think back Eriol, one month before you 'lost' me."

That was exactly a month before. Eriol stopped dead in his tracks and cursed underneath his breath. "What's wrong?" Sakura asked.

"S-s-she was…" Eriol stammered.

"Eriol what is it? Who was what?" Sakura demanded getting more concerned.

Eriol ran to Kaho's house, and Sakura ran after him, "Eriol! Answer me!"

But Eriol didn't answer. Soon Sakura got too tired from running at Eriol's speed and let him go ahead.

…Kaho's house…

Tomoyo tapped the dagger in her hands impatiently on the table. Kaho said she'd be right down, so what was taking her so long? Tomoyo heard a strange sound coming from behind her. It sounded like something being stretched. "I thought your aura was too different to be Sakura's," Kaho's voice came from behind her, "So who are you stranger?"

Tomoyo turned to her old teacher. Kaho was standing with her bow and arrow pointing straight at Tomoyo. "Are you still good in archery?" Tomoyo enquired.

In shock, Kaho accidentally released the arrow. Luckily Tomoyo moved away just in time. Tomoyo frowned and took one step closer to Kaho. She scrambled for another arrow and inelegantly put it into place. "I know it was you," Tomoyo started.

"What was?" Kaho asked.

Tomoyo looked over Kaho's shoulder, and smiled sweetly. "You got my friends to kill me, but how did you do it?"

Kaho laughed menacingly, "I couldn't seem to tear Eriol away from you, so I made up a prediction about you turning on all of them, and the only way that they could stop you was if they killed you. I didn't know that it would actually come true."

Tomoyo smiled at the woman. "What are you smiling at?" Kaho demanded.

Tomoyo twirled her finger around, advising Kaho to turn around. Kaho looked over her shoulder and saw Eriol standing there. The expression on his face was unreadable, making Kaho unable to react.
