Short Preview of the next chapter, probably the last..

Chapter 9

Syaoran was heart aching these past couple of days as Sakura's words still hung in the air. She hadn't showed up at school either , which Syaoran thought would be his only chance to see her know she was doing okay.

As he laid on his back on his couch as he fantasized about his little blossom, he heard a familiar "bbzzz" ringing around. He noticed it was his doorbell and decided to see outside the window who the person was who was disrupting his thoughts but who he saw was even better. He saw his very own Sakura in flesh! He rappidly stood up and went to open the door to only encounter the thin air.

He stared for a while at the void when a bark startled him. He look down and the source of the noice, and found Xiao Hu. Syaoran started to build tears in his eyes, and at the same time, drops of rain started to fall. He made a run behind Sakura to see if he could reach her but tripped over a rock and fell on the ground and did not stood up, knowing it was too late.

The next day, for Syaoran's surprise, Sakura did show up to school..and early for that aswell.

The whole day passed and still he couldnt get in touch with Sakura who kept avoiding him at all expenses, to the point where she got herself detention. Syaoran was now desperate, and seeked for help to the last person he ever imagined he'd ever look for help... Jonathan.

At lunch, when Syaoran knew he was safe from being over heard by Sakura for she was having detention at that time, he carefully aproached the table Jonathan was sitting at alone.

"Umm, hey John!" said Syaoran nervously.

"Hi.. What ya doing here?"answered Jonathan carefully.

"Well, I know we had a rough start and all, but I was thinking that maybe..maybee..." continued Syaoran as he sat down across Jonathan, facing him.

"Maybe what?"

"...be friends?"

"I know you want something, just spit it out"

"I want you to help me get Sakura back." Syaoran blurted out.

"And why would I do that?" inquired Jonathan. "Dont answer. I'll help you."

"Really! Why?"

"Cause I know the feeling. Meet me at the park at 8 p.m" said Johnathan as he left Syaoran puzzled and alone in the lunch table as the bell rang indicating all students to enter back to class, but left Syaoran still in the table trying to puzzle out the meaning behind Jonathan's last sentence.

After school, Syaoran went straight home and as he opened the door was greeted by a very eager puppy jumping in circles clearly happy he wasnt alone anymore.

As Syaoran bent down to carry Xiaohu, he noticed a little something on his collar that wasnt there before.. He looked closely as we pulled it out and realized it was Sakura's ring!

'How dare she!' Syaoran thought as he felt deeply hurt. Right there, he got this sudden urge, this determination to make everything clear and get Sakura back for without it nothing would be worth it.

At exactly 8:01 pm, Syaoran and Jonathan met at the Pinguin park on the benches.

"Hey" started Syaoran, trying to break the ice.

"Hi" said Jonathan with a distant and pensive look in his face.

"So..."

"You want me to help you get Sakura back.. but first you have to tell me what you did."

"I didnt do anything.."

"If it was so, you wouldnt be here like a love sick puppy begging for help from the last person you'd ever talk to."

"Okay okay, I'll tell you.. Sakura and I were doing just fine, you heard yourself..she was going to try her best to make it work and I was as happy as ever but one night my mother called me..." he continued as he told the whole story.

"Dude, you're in dip shit."

"Tell me about it" said Syaoran as he sat down next to Jonathan as layed his forehead in his hands.

"Did you have any ideas in mind to how take her back?"

"I dont even know if she would want me back..but I did have a little something thought.."

"Well, what is it?"

"Jonathan, promise me you wont freak out.."

"What? Why? Syoran..you're scaring me."

"Jonathan, do you beleive in magic?"

"Hahhahahah! Dude, you got it bad."

"I'm serious here. I'm a straight descendant of a very powerful magician and I got some of his powers, but I've never told anyone. I thought that maybe.. I could try for you and I to change bodies so that you could go to Hong Kong and settle things there while I talk with Sakura..as you.. and see if she really loves me still and would give me another chance to fix things and ..."

"You're nuts!" yelled Jonathan as he ran away from Syaoran the fastest as he could.
