Chapter Twenty Six
:----------------------------------:
Kaori
She watched the scene in front of her in utter silence. She didn't know how to react, she watched as her son fell to his knees, unable to get up. Watched him howl out in pain, suffer as she just stood there watching. Her eyes lightened into the soft blue as tears streaked down her pale checks. She pushed everyone away and slowly touched the grey dust. Shutting her eyes she blew the ashes out into the wind.
Looking around the room, she noticed everyone was staring at her in fright. She didn't know what to do. Her love…her only son. Syaoran and Sakura were embraced in each others arms, Takashi was standing with Syaoran and Sakura. Yue was tending to a half dead Mika, and Touya trying his best to keep up a strong front. Eriol was on the ground shocked at what she had done. Even she hadn't thought this would ever happen.
What had she done? The four words kept vibrating through her mind. Sobbing silently to herself, the others watched not saying a word. They knew how she felt, but in a way, they didn't.
Kaori felt as if life couldn't get any worst. She not only single handedly killed the love of her life, the one man who had spent hundreds of years with her, but her only son who she had just reunited with a few days ago.
She clenched her fists tightly as the thoughts rambled on, she didn't even get a chance to be a mother, a true mother to a son that needed her. She didn't get to show her love towards her husband, they were in a fight before he died. 'Why? Why had this all have to happen to me?' Kaori questioned herself as she watched the others with rage.
Suddenly a new anger grew inside of her, it was no longer for Syaoran but for the fact that it was because of them that she had killed her love. It was because of them that she had to loose her son. Suddenly her soft blue eyes turned into a deep endless black and her auburn locks turned into a sudden grey.
The windows all flew open as the cold wind bristled in. Her eyes grew large as everything around them flew in the air. But the six stayed on the ground. "Why are you all still alive!" she hollered out, as they all stared at her in freight.
Here she had just lost the two most important people in her life and still have the strength to fight. "Kaori-san…please stop this! We already lost two people, how far do you want to go?" Sakura yelled out back as she sobbed silently in Syaoran's strong arms.
Kaori stared at her like she was stupid, "Who are you to talk! You started this! You and that…that HUSBAND of yours! He stole Hino and my son from me! You know how long it took for me to find them? And look at what happened now!"
"That was the past!" Sakura yelled trying to get through to her, "Do you want countless lives to die because of mistake made hundreds of years ago! Do you want more people you care for to die?"
Kaori stopped in midair, everything grew silent. No one said a thing, afraid of what the outcome might be. Slowly Kaori fell back down, "No…" Sakura smiled softly, "Please Kaori-san, your husband lost his life to help us stop this fight…" Kaori nodded as she slowly looked down at his lifeless body. Making him hover over her, she smiled softly at the group, "Gomen…I will be going now."
Sakura nodded as Kaori slowly disappeared into the night. Sakura looked back at Syaoran who smiled proudly at her. She had just saved them their lives.
:----------------------------------:
Eriol watched the two unsurely. He hadn't meant for people to die…was it so wrong to want to be with the one you love? Was it wrong for him to feel that he deserved Sakura? Standing up slowly, he watched as all eyes were on him. Looking at them all sadly, he turned towards Sakura. Everyone was on their guard for any attack he may make. But he just stood there not saying a word.
Sakura looked at him, sadness filling her, "I'm sorry Eriol…I can never love you." Eriol nodded his head, he had realized this during the fight, "Did you ever love me?" he questioned her. Sakura looked away ashamed, she knew in her heart she had led him on. She had never told him straight up, she had always delayed the truth, she was partly to blame for all of this, "I'm sorry Eriol…I enjoyed being with you…but it wasn't love…it was never love."
Eriol nodded, smiling sadly, "Don't worry…I mean…I had my chance. It was my fault…everything is my fault…" slowly Eriol walked off. Sakura went to go get him, but Syaoran grabbed onto her arm. "Look," he whispered. Sakura watched as Eriol crouched down, staring at the floor.
"Look Naoka…look isn't this house wonderful? Aren't our daughters gorgeous? They're so grown up now aren't they?" Sakura bit her lip, not saying anything. Naoka was Eriol's first wife that had died to a rabid vampire. Syaoran shook his head sadly, "He isn't going to make it…" Sakura nodded, "You do it."
Syaoran stood up silently muttering a prayer. Suddenly a light appeared and Eriol's soul left his body. Sakura smiled sadly as Eriol's soul hovered upwards and into the arms of a young woman with long red hair, and light blue eyes. The two hugged and continued to rise.
:----------------------------------:
Mika smiled and nudged on Yue's hand. "Yue…I love you. I'm glad you never left me, through all that happened. I know we've had our problems…but in the end we had found each other…but…" Yue shook his head, "You will not die MIKA!" Mika placed his finger over Yue's soft tender lips, "Yue…you can't change fate. This was meant to happen. All of it…I'll wait for you Yue…I promise you. And I'm sorry…for bringing you into all of this."
Yue shook his head tears streaking down his soft purple eyes, "You won't die! Here drink my blood!" Yue commanded shoving his arm in front of his face. Mika gently placed his arm aside, "You know as well as I do I won't live. You know I'm cursed…you knew didn't you Yue? That's why you had to find me this time. Even though all those years before you couldn't. You know I was going to die."
Yue hugged onto him tightly, "I won't let you die…I love you Mika." A large smile grew on his face, "Thank you Yue…these past 10 years…for these past 10 years I've been waiting for you to say those four words. To say those words and mean it…I can finally go." Yue didn't say a word as he watched Mika's body fall limp in his arms. Yue took a deep breath standing up and carrying Mika bridal style.
"He was cursed 10 years ago…he only had 10 years to live…" turning to Sakura, Yue bowed down, "Thank you Saku…thank you for noticing. You knew it too didn't you?" Sakura smiled sadly nodding her head, due to their closeness she had felt his thoughts, his memories of how he knew. How he had accidentally noticed Mika one night and found out about his curse. "Thank you for helping us…both of you," Syaoran said back as he watched Yue smile softly.
Yue nodded his head, "You better take care of her," slowly Yue walked off disappearing into the night.
:----------------------------------:
Takashi helped Touya get up off the ground, "I guess…this is it?" Sakura nodded crouching down, "What happened?" Syaoran hugged onto her tightly, "Shh…Sakura…" Sakura shook her head tears streaking down, "This wasn't supposed to happen…none of it…I didn't want anyone to die. Sure I knew Mika would be…but everyone else…it wasn't supposed to happen."
The couple stayed in that position as the other two returned home. All would finally be silent…
