Author's Note (very belated)
I am going to be addressing a few things in this short essay. Firstly the change in timeline and events from the birth of Clow to where this story is currently at, and will also deal with where the story is going. Secondly, the appearances of new and old characters, both in the half-chapter and in the actual story, and what roles they play. Thirdly, the meaning behind this half-chapter and the people in it. And fourthly, the names I used and the meanings behind them.
First issue: The change in timeline. According to the previous half-chapter Clow is approximately 280 years old, give or take a few years. The problem was that I do not know his life story and since I don't have time to research it, and it probably won't fit in with my plot very well, I have decided to rewrite it so to speak. Not to mention that otherwise Hesperos and Sying would not exist. Now let's skip ahead a few hundred years and we get to Sakura. This whole story occurs after Eriol's test and at this point in time Eriol has not given Fujitaka's half of the power to him just yet. He will though, later. Yukito is aware of Yue but have not met him properly. Where is this story heading? Well, it has been decided that Moonlit Reflection is going to be a prequel to a series that hasn't got a name as yet. Why? Um...I got really bored and extremely creative. Blame my muses; all of them have psychological problems.
Second issue: Characters. I'll deal with the ones in the half-chapter first. All the humans that were mentioned were mentioned for a particular reason. Every last one of them. They have a relevance to the series mentioned above. Hesperos and Sying will not be making any appearances in this story except possibly through other half-chapters. In fact, they will not be mentioned by anyone in this story at all. I know a lot of you are at this moment going 'WTF' or some other variation of it, but there is a method behind my madness. This story is all Yue/Yukito, Touya, and a small, small Fujitaka and Eriol. Which lead me to the characters in the actual story. Fujitaka will feature heavily, while Eriol will be heard from time to time on the phone or whatever. The reason for this will become clear later. Sakura, Kero, and Tomoyo will be support characters, and Syaoron and Meiling might also be heard from. A few new faces will appear, mainly classmates and other such beings.
Third issue: Why on earth did this half-chapter appear? I'm establishing a few things for the later yet unnamed series. The people that came into this story all have a role to play in the past and the future as I have explained before. The half-chapter really has very little to do with the actual story but I thought it would be interesting to read. It is entirely possible that a few more scenes from Yue and Kero's childhood will appear again but I'm not making any promises. If you want me to write any more half-chapters about any particular people or events feel free to request. I am at your service so to speak.
Fourth issue: The names: Why did I used Cerberus instead of Keroberus. Cerberus was his original name I believe which was changed to Keroberus later. Seeing as he is still a child it seemed obvious to use his English name. For people unfamiliar with Greek myths; Cerberus is the three-headed guardian dog of Hades, the underworld. He does not have wings but the name does sort of make sense when you think in terms of Hades being Hell. Yue is the Chinese word for moon. Ying Fa is the Chinese word of cherry blossoms I think. That should give you a clue as to who the hell that woman was or will be. Hesperos is a little more difficult to explain. Venus, the brightest star in the sky, is called by two names, Hesperos in the evening and Phosphorus in the morning. Stars are associated with the night so I thought it would be more logical to call him Hesperos, and besides, Phosphorus sounds really weird. Sying is a Chinese name meaning 'star'.
