Chapter 10: To change the past; go to the future

Everyone was shocked beyond belief. What they had just seen was the last thing they were expecting.

"Your parents are Sakura and Eriol!" Yelled Syaoron looking at her in shock.

"But how? And when? And why?" Asked Touya, stuttering to get his words together.

Crystal turned torwards them as the scene began fading. "I'll tell you everything." She began, her voice now back to normal. "My mother told me that it was dad who confessed first. She didn't tell me specifically when, but they were in their late twenties. They married about five months after the confession and I was born nine months later. Then, when I was thirteen years old, the incident that you just saw happened. Had you brought us to the right time, you would have been more shocked." She stopped, waiting for them to ask questions.

"But you said that your dad left a year later." Touya said.

"I lied. Anyway, my dad spoke of a traitor. Well the that traitor, who stole the cards and killed my mom, is his future self!" She said pointing at Syaoron furiously.

"Syaoron did it!" Sakura cried, backing away from him.

"I came to this time hoping to kill him before he cracked but… I came to the wrong time." She sighed.

"We'll help you!" Said Eriol quickly.

"What? What about me?" Yelled Syaoron angrily.

"If you truly love Sakura, you'll let us do this so you won't kill her." Tomoyo said sadly.

"…You're right. We have too. Let's go." Syaoron finally agreed.

"Time Card!" Yelled Sakura. "Bring us to the time when Crystal was twelve!"

Time brought them forward again and they watched Crystal's life pass quickly before them. When they appeared at the time they wanted, they found the future Syaoron talking to himself.

"Don't do it! Don't do anything!" Yelled the younger Syaoron.

"The hell? You're me!"

"From your past!" He began explaining. "You're going to kill Sakura. We can't let you!"

"She married him! I have a right to revenge!" He said drawing his sword.

(A/N: Hello all! The author is being lazy right now, so this fight scene has been cut out. Lol. Sorry for the inconvenience.)

The battle ended and only one Syaoron was standing. No one could tell which one it was until he made a comment that made them fall over anime style.

"Man, do I ever slack off in th future1 That was too easy!"

"Yeah! That's our Syaoron!" Commented Tomoyo happily.

Everyone smiled at eachother. The Time Card brought them back to the present. Crystal sighed and looked around. Tears forming in her eyes, she to Eriol's house and packed her things with a heavy heart… the time had come.


A/N: The next chapter is the final one. Sorry to all Syaoron fans. Don't kill me or flame me. Read & Review!
