Kamaki and Sakura have only known each other for five months. She doesn't know very much about him, aside the fact he's a sorcerer, comedian, and smart Alec. Although she feels a definite attraction to him. He almost seems like a loner. Although very friendly, no can seem to dislike him. (Aside from Tori and Kero.) And he's always there when you need him, even if you didn't.
The first time Sakura learned of his magic, was when a dragon had attacked the city. (Yes, Kero was wrong. They do exist.) Sakura was scared she'd have to reveal herself in order to keep anyone from being hurt. (The Sleep Card would have just given the dragon easy targets and the Time Card would have been too difficult to use.) But, just when things looked there worst, Kamaki showed up. He stood in front of a little girl who had fallen and hurt her leg. The dragon charged at him furiously, while Kamaki stood there like a bump on a log. Sakura reached for her key, but it was to late. Sakura had closed her eyes, to afraid to see the onslaught. But curiosity got the better of her. She slowly uncovered her eyes. The dragon was nearly a foot away from Kamaki's head, with a sword coming out of the back of its head. Kamaki had pierced the dragon right in the back of the mouth, seconds before it bit his head off. Something no one could do without the aid of magic.
After Sakura had asked him about it, he said, in his own words. "I guess I got lucky...?" Which Sakura replied. "Right. Lucky you had brought your broadsword to the park? Is that what you mean?" Kamaki started to stutter. "Uh, well um, eh... Yeah. And that's a middle sword!' Sakura gave him a look with a half crocked eyebrow. "Okay, so I like swords, what's the deal?..." Okay, we could be here for hours before they're finished, lets just say after a while, Kamaki told her about his powers, and Sakura had told him of the Clow Cards, not about Li. "Oh so your the one..." Kamaki said learning this. Sakura raised another eyebrow. "Huh?" She said. "I had heard that the cards had broken loose, and shortly afterwards some half-assed Cardcaptor got lucky and sealed them all. Had I known it was you, I'd have slugged the bitch!'
They talked for hours more that day, strictly on magic and such. If the conversation started to head to more personal issues, Kamaki quickly changed the subject back to less personal ones, which Sakura took hardly any notice of. When she returned home that night, she told Kero all of what they had talked about, Kero's only response to that was. "Yesssss, and after all that talking did you happen to remember that you were heading to the bakery?..." Which Sakura had forgotten, which led to "Sakura!" and Kero opening up a can of "Whoop ass".
Meanwhile, unknown to Sakura, Kamaki was just starting to realize his love for her. "How can this be, I can't feel this way towards her. But she was so open to me. She wanted to just, tell me her life story, just like that. But if she we're to find out about me, she'd hate me. And I can't risk losing a friend like her . But I can't ignore this feeling forever. I'll give it a month, then, if I still feel this way, I'll... Think of something then!" That was two months before he had told her his feelings. Kamaki spent those two months in absolute horror, arguing over himself, going through denial. After telling her he felt relived, till he saw what it was doing to her.
Present-A Few Days Later, Outside Of School
Kamaki was about to lie and tell Sakura it was all a joke after he had seen how much of a wreak she'd been in the last few days. When she finally got to school he jumped off the swing he was on, and dashed over to see her. "Sakura/Kamaki Listen, I-..." They both said at once, cutting each other off. Kamaki glanced at Madison, who came with her to school. "Um, I'll just busy myself over here." She said as she dashed behind some bushes, camera ready. "You first..." said Kamaki. "Okay, well I don't know how to put this, but..." Sakura says as Kamaki prepares himself for the worst. "I think I'm-..." Sakura was cut off by a familiar aura behind her, it couldn't be. Sakura slowly turned around to see who else, but Li! "Li!" Sakura shouted as she dashes toward him. "Surprise." Li gently says as he comes close to give her a hug. To close for Kamaki's liking. "So..." Kamaki said raising an eyebrow. "Who's this?"
"Uhh..."
"Well, who is he?" Kamaki demands as Sakura still tries to keep cool. "Um, well, uh...-" Sakura stammers not knowing what to say, or how to keep her cool. She then turns to Li. "-er, Li! Why are you here? How come you came back?" Sakura asks not knowing anything else to say. "I came to give you a surprise visit. I've had to do extra housework and odd jobs for the last month, that's why I haven't been writing... And by the way, who is he?" Li explains as he gives Kamaki his famous 'glare'. "Well, you see, uh..." Sakura still at a loss for words. "Just spit it out!" Kamaki and Li both say, keeping there cool of course. "Well, um...-" After about five more minutes, Sakura blurts everything out, explaining every detail, bit by bit, of each of them, to each of them. With the exception of whose feelings she returned.
Kamaki turned away, and for the first time since Sakura had known him, was completely silent. And as for Li, his eye began to twitch, he looked as if he were about to explode. Then his eyes widened, just for a moment. And then he calmed down, and buried his head in his chest. "Well... Are you in love with him?" They asked. "Well, that's the thing. You see, the feelings I feel for the both of you are different, but I can definitely say that-" Both boys looked intently at Sakura as she prepared herself for what she had to say.
"-I'm in love with... Both of you."
Li looks stunned. Kamaki almost looks as if he's become a hollow soul. For about a minute there was no sound no movement, everyone just stood there, it felt like forever before Li spoke up. "Hmm, well, I can definitely say I wasn't expecting to here this on my trip, but, I suppose I can't blame you..., I mean, I...-" But he was cut off, nearly, by Kamaki's sword as he threw strait toward him. "Kamaki! What are you doing!" Madison shrieks as she runs back. "Isn't it simple? If you love us both, then all I have to do to get you is to one simple thing...-" Kamaki's sword returns to him, ever spinning. "-kill Shaoran Li."
"What! That's crazy!" Madison says as Li checks if he's been hurt. "Its simple really..." Kamaki explains. "...if Sakura is in love with the two of us, then all I need to do is make so that there's only one of us. Or something like that." Kamaki finishes by lunging towards Li as he quickly dodges the attack. Li grabs for his sword. But just as he's about to summon it, he over hears some people talking in the background, and decides that there are to many people around to use his magic. Kamaki lunges again towards Li's throat, to fast for Li to dodge. And stops an inch away. The sweat begins to bead off Li's face. His heart races. He closes his eyes as he begins to reminisce of the years before, capturing the Clow Cards, being close to Sakura. "No-" Li opens his eyes, Kamaki eyes are closed. "I can't let you do this."
