Chapter 8: The revival of someone from the past...

England people are sleeping peacefully and so are in the Hiiragizawa manor. Every one is asleep not until Eriol felt something move in the bed

"Where am I?" Eriol said the moment he open his sapphire eyes

Eriol scan the room to see he wasn't in his room but in Tomoyo's room. This automatically shot back the idea what happened earlier so he look up at the raven girl sleeping in the soft queen size bed, as he stares at her, he realized something is not right.

Eriol saw her stir and her expression were like she was in pain, her face is all red. Eriol place his right palm and was shock how high her temperature is

"My God, Tomoyo since when did you have this fever?" Eriol immediately run downstairs to the kitchen to grab some basin with cold water and a clean towel. He also took some medicine from the medicine box

"Damn it, why didn't I think of it before. I should have known that this was a total shock to you." Eriol said to her sleeping form while he place the towel damped in cold, icy water

Eriol saw Tomoyo opening her eyes a little then close again, and then open

"You shouldn't force yourself if you can't wake up" Eriol said to her

"I-I feel really hot and weak and my left arm hurts a little" She said in her lowest tone but Eriol never fail to here her out

"That's because you have a fever Tomoyo and you have been stab on your left arm. But don't worry, it's alright now. Just go to sleep and rest, I'll take care of you"

Those were the last words Tomoyo heard from Eriol before she fell to another dream

'Where am I?' the raven hair girl ask

Tomoyo scan the place she was in. The place were some very familiar to her. The ground was green because of the grass, the sky is azure and infinite high, and there are flowers wherever she look, slowly she walks around.

She climbs the hill and saw the perfect view of a town, a town which is really very familiar to her, and then she saw some group of peoples laughing and having a picnic under the big cherry tree

Tomoyo went a little closer to see who they are. There were 2 girls and 2 boys, the fist girl has a brown hair tied in two pony tails, and the man besides him has a chestnut brown hair facing another fine young man having a long black hair and he is wearing eye glasses lastly the woman besides him. She has a very long, dark hair that has twirls in the end. The four people look at her with smiles

"Is she the one?" The brown hair girl ask

"She does look exactly like you Tomoko, right Clow?" the chestnut hair boy said looking at the other man

"She should be the one, but I never expected her to meet in person" the dark hair man wearing glasses reply

Everyone is talking in Japanese

"Who are you people? Do you know me?" was the only word Tomoyo ask being confused at the situation

The dark hair girl kneels down and look at her face to face, amethyst meets amethyst eyes. She smiles at her before she lean closer to Tomoyo

"Believe in young song, and finished thy music" Tomoko whisper to her ear

Tomoyo look at her wondering what she means, Tomoko just smile back at her

"What ever do you mean miss?" Tomoyo ask again but something is wrong...

The scenery is dissolving, everything is vanishing. This made Tomoyo scared

"Wait... who are you people? What do you mean that I look like Tomoko?"

Back in reality...

It was 6:00 in the morning and everything is peaceful. Eriol woke up from the strong ray of light coming from the window. He was still in Tomoyo's room, have fallen asleep besides Tomoyo's queen size, soft bed

"I guess it was already morning" Was the only word he mutters when he first open his eyes, he took glance at the sleeping Tomoyo. He place his palm on her forehead to see if the fever is gone, but to his surprised

"My God, why isn't the fever still gone yet? She was supposed to be better now, why?" He said to himself. He immediately place another towel soaked in cold water to her forehead when suddenly she open her eyes

"Tomoko..." she whisper in her freams, Eriol look at her in surprise then shook his head

'Nah, it can't be. There is no way she knows her' he thought

Then Tomoyo said another

"Water..." she said

"Sure here" Eriol said giving her a glass of warm water

Tomoyo spit is and look angrily at him

"Why did you give me hot water, I want cold!" she demanded

"No, you still have a fever so you can't drink any cold right now" he refuse

"But my body is burning hot, I need to drink something cold, it's irritating!" she said trying to seat up

"I am sorry but I cannot let you do what you pleased. If you don't like to drink this water then suit yourself" he said standing up from her bed and placing the glass or water to the near side table

"If you don't want to give me, fine I will just get one myself" Tomoyo being frustrated get out of bed and walk towards the door

Tomoyo walk towards the door swaying, her visions were still blurry and she can't seems to steady her balance and when she can't hold it anymore she accidentally fall to the floor. Eriol seeing these immediately run towards her and catch her in time before she hits the floor

"Let go of me...I don't need you." She retorted

"Shut up, what do you think you're doing, forcing yourself like that?" Eriol shot back, but Tomoyo doesn't seems to mind that

"Let me go didn't you hear me you deaf!" she yell

"Well I am sorry I didn't hear you. I'll take you back to bed" Eriol tried to carry her back but she just push him away.

"I said let me..." she was stop by a soft, warm kiss Eriol just gave her.

Tomoyo's head is spinning; everything is really blurry in her vision. Tear slip through her amethyst eyes.

When Eriol broke the kiss, Tomoyo was unconscious again but she mutters something again

"Really, and you said I was the stubborn one here" he mock but smile at her too

"I ... not... Tomoko...mistake...Clow san..." Eriol's eyes widen,

"I think you are not just hallucinating but I think you are beginning to unfold something" Eriol said having a blank expression and hugging Tomoyo closer

Nakuru and Spinnel came to the room and saw them. Eriol hugging Tomoyo while unconscious, the guardians grin at their master

"Now that is unusual sight I could see in the early morning" Nakuru teasing his master

Eriol didn't mind his moon guardian and carried Tomoyo back to bed

"Nakuru cancel your plans for today" Eriol said not looking at her

"What? Master I am just joking about it, promise I will be good" Nakuru said begging to his master's mercy not knowing what she really means

"Ruby Moon it is not what you think, I want you and Spinnel to go to Hong Kong and meet the Li clan, well specially my cute descendant and his future bride"

"You mean the Li kid and Sakura?" Nakuru ask dumb folded

Eriol nods his head "Yes but before you do that can you call the university and tell them I wont be able to come to school for some times"

"Eh, and why is that master?" Spinnel ask suspiciously

"That's because Tomoyo has a very high fever and who do you think will take care of her when you two are gone?" He said sarcastically

"Whatever master" Spinnel reply playfully Eriol frown at his black cat

'I think Spinnel sun is becoming more like Ruby Moon. May be I should separate them before Ruby Moon teaches him more' Eriol said to himself

"All right master, I will pack my things now and leave as much as possible. I'll also call your school later before we leave, see you in 3 days master. Take care of Tomoyo for me" Nakuru said smirking on her master and then leaving the room

After a few minutes Nakuru came in again.

"Master we are going now please take care when we are gone. I have also call your school and said you need to do something very important" Nakuru inform

"Thanks, have a safe trip to Hong Kong" he said and then both his guardians call a cab to drive them to the airport

It has been 2 days and Tomoyo was still unconscious. Eriol is making food for them and feed Tomoyo even though she was not fully conscious of what is happening.

One day Eriol came in to her room to see if she is in a much better state. Tomoyo is wide awake when Eriol came to the room.

"Are you feeling much better?" Eriol greeted her, Tomoyo shook her head

"No" she reply shortly

Eriol place the tray in the table besides her bed and then place his right palm to her forehead again to see if she still has a fever

"Good your fever has gone down" He said turning his back on her

"I feel really hungry, I can eat a whole table full of dishes" Tomoyo said absent mindedly

Eriol chuckle "Well what do you expect for sleeping that long?" Tomoyo look at her

"Why how long did I sleep?" Tomoyo ask

"Well to be exact, 45 hours. You are so weak you can't even open your eyes to see if the real word is still running round" Eriol said helping Tomoyo to seat up

"WHAT?! Am I sleeping that long? It's a good thing I was still able to wake up" Tomoyo said to him who is still laughing silently

"Don't worry, I am waking you up at least every 6 hours to feed something on you" he assured

"You have been taking care of me for the past 2 days?" Tomoyo ask in surprise, Eriol nods his head

"Nakuru and Spinnel went to Hong Kong because I want to get something from my cute descendant, so that leaves me to stay here and take care of you" He reason

"I see..."

There was a long silence between them and then Eriol decided to leave and make dinner for them

"Will you be all right now by yourself? I am going to make snacks now" He ask not looking at her, Tomoyo blush

"Yeah, sorry if I am a big burden to you, you should be in school and I should be the one cooking and not you" she said in a very low tone

"Don't worry about it. Just rest and I'll bring your snacks here in bed" he finally said then leaving her alone in her room

'Thank you very much...Eriol' she whisper to the wind

Down at the kitchen Eriol made a blueberry jam cookie and some orange juice, he also brought some medicines with him for her. When he arrives there she was looking outside the window

"You mustn't do that; you will catch another cold if you did" he warn, Tomoyo immediately turn back inside

"Did you make these? It smell delicious" She said the moment she smells the sweet aroma

"That is because I made that, do you think you were the only one who is capable of cooking food with such aroma?" He tease Tomoyo gave a faint smile which he notice "Hey I am just joking Tomoyo, now eat these and drink the medicine okay. I have to make a phone call to Hong Kong to see what is happening, okay"

Eriol again left the room leaving Tomoyo.

Eriol is in the study room and dialed the Li Hotline, a very cheerful voice answer in Chinese language

"Hello Li residence this is Sakura may I help you?"

"Sakura it's me Eriol, how have you been? He said to the other line

"Eriol how are you. It's been a while since you we have a phone conversation. So what have you been up to sending your 2 guardians here?" Sakura eagerly ask

"Well didn't my cute descendant told you when he read my letter to him?" he said

"No, wait I'll ask. You should talk to your guardians for now they are with me helping me do some shopping's for Tomoyo"

"Shoppings? I see and did you had good time with them" he ask in amuse

"Yeah, I love their company not like Kero chan who is soo bossy" she complains

Sakura gave the phone to Nakuru and went to find Syaoran

"Hi Master, so what are things there?" Nakuru simply ask

"Hello Ruby Moon, everything is fine here now. I see that you having fun with Sakura there" he noted

Nakuru gulp

"Well not really, she asks us to come and we have no choice but to follow her. Besides Master what is libro del ricordo? Is that supposed to be a pile of data information?"

"Air head" Spinnel commented and Nakuru shot him a death glare

"I see that you have read my letter for my cute descendant" Eriol said quite disappointed to his guardians

"Ma-master don't get me wrong, Suppi said he wants to read it" Nakuru excuse

"Me? How dare you Ruby Moon, I said that but I didn't told you to open it! YOU are the one who is too excited and curious to read what is inside, you just my opinion back there" Spinnel retorted back

And the two guardians quarrel on the other line of the phone, Eriol sigh hearing these

"You two stop it already. It's all right if you read that letter but I think I will explain it to you here when you come back. By the way I want to know what my cute descendant's reaction when he read my letter" Eriol said changing the topic

Eriol didn't know that Syaoran has already taken the phone from Nakuru and that he heard his last question

"Do you want to know what my reaction to that is?" the chestnut hair boy yell to the other line

"......" Eriol didn't answer but sweat drop

"You are a real idiot Hiiragizawa! Do you really think I will give you that book? You are insane, do you know what kind of book you are asking me to give you. I will probably broke a thousand rules if I did that" Syaoran scolded him on the phone

"I know it is very important my cute descendant that is why I sent my two guardians to escort it back here rather than asking you to mail it here, right?" Eriol reply innocently

"Even if you send the whole army of England I still won't give it to you" Syaoran said sarcastically

"My dear cute descendant, England don't use army, cavalry would be the right word" Eriol tease

These made Syaoran more furious and was about to hang up the phone when he heard Eriol said something to him in his very serious tone

"Syouran listen to me, I really need that book. I want to prove something or maybe to see for myself if it is true or not" Eriol began the real talk "Do you know what that book is all about right?'

"Whatever do you mean Hiiragizawa? Of coarse I know what it is all about. It is the most detailed book about Clow Reed. Not only that it also contains all the magical symbols and elements he used to create The Clow Cards. It is also said that these book is all about Clow Reeds life, secrets and all" Syaoran reply proudly

"I see that you are really studying hard knowing all these" He said praising his cute descendant

"Of coarse, so do you now understand that it is not possible for me to give it to you even if your guardians will be there to escort it" Syaoran argue back again

"Please If you give me that book I swear I will never ever tease you again nor made an evil plan for you and Sakura" he deal

That time Eriol heard someone talk on the other line, her voice was really familiar

"Syouran why are you shouting on the phone?" she ask

"Oh Ms. Mizuki glad you are here, Syouran is having a quarrel conversation with Eriol on the phone" Sakura explained

Both Nakuru and Spinnel look at the red hair lady but didn't said a word

"Fine just promise me that okay!" he said then he felt a hand on his shoulder, it was Kaho Mizuki

"Can I?" she politely ask

"Sure tell that to your boyfriend that he better do what he promise or else" with that Syaoran gave her the phone which she gladly accept

"So how are you Eriol" She politely ask using the English language, Eriol felt some cold winds drift in his neck

"Kaho" was his only reply

"So how are you, it's been 3 years since we have a phone conversation" she commented

"What are you doing there?" He coldly reply

"Oh didn't they tell you, I am teaching Sakura and Syaoran how to speak English" she mark "Syaoran need to learn that language now that he is the head of the Li clan company and fortunately I am in Hong Kong that time so I decided to teach them again" She said still having her calm tone even though she only receives cold ones

"No, well it's good to hear that those two are working hard, tell them my wishes" again he said his words coldly

"Do you have to talk to me with you cold tone Eriol" she said with a worry look

"I'll do what I want to do" he mock

"Look I know what happen to us made you like this, and I heard from Nakuru that Tomoyo is there too"

"Did she also told that too Sakura and Syaoran" he said looking at his window

"Apparently not, but I know that she works there as a servant" she mark

"I am not asking her to do more than cooking" he flatly said

"I see"

Both Sakura and Syaoran are in sweat drop not knowing what the former couples are talking about talking in English that fast is hard to them to understand what they mean. On the other hand both Spinnel and Nakuru are in sweat drop too because thay know what they are talking about and that their conversation is also no good than the other conversation the former couples have back in England

"Anyways I want you to take care of Tomoyo; I also heard she was sick when your two guardians left" Kaho said in her serious tone

"She is okay now, she has regained her consciousness" He informed her

"I know you did, by the way maybe she is the one you are looking for and not me. But then again you still have to look for it yourself in the book"

Eriol didn't said any word on that

"One more thing, when I come back there, I want to meet with you again if you don't mind"

"Sure" his expression were black

"Good, well good bye, until we meet again" She said ending the phone call

"Yeah, until then" Eriol hang up the phone too

"Meet with you again, huh..." he said leaning on his favorite chair

Meanwhile outside the room, Tomoyo is quietly leaning on the wall listening
